[0026] Furthermore, the storage plate 4 is provided with a slider 41 that slidably cooperates with the guide groove 5 .

[0027] Furthermore, the operating table 1 is provided with a driving device for driving the storage plate 4 to move.

[0028] Furthermore, the support assembly includes a left conveying roller 51 and a right conveying roller 52 rotatably arranged in the mounting groove 2. The left conveying roller 51 and the right conveying roller 52 are jointly arranged to form a support surface for supporting the bottle body. The left conveying roller 51 and the right conveying roller 52 are both connected to a rotating motor.

[0029] Furthermore, the label assembly includes a stand 61 and a bracket 62 arranged on the stand 61 , and a label roller 63 is detachably arranged on the bracket 62 .

[0030] Furthermore, the label roller 63 is plugged into the bracket 62 .

[0031] Furthermore, the stand 61 is provided with a plurality of locking positions 611 in the vertical direction, the bracket 62 is provided with a mounting hole 621, and the mounting hole 621 is matched with a locking piece 6211.

[0032] Furthermore, the locking member 6211 is a bolt.

[0033] Furthermore, the driving device is a telescopic motor or a telescopic cylinder.

[0034] The working principle of this utility model is:

[0035] Take the soy sauce bottle labeling test as an example. Figure 1 As shown, the storage plate 4 is moved into the storage slot 3, at which time the left and right transmission rollers are exposed. The left and right transmission rollers are together formed to form a support surface for supporting the bottle body. The left and right transmission rollers are connected to a rotary motor to control the left and right transmission rollers to rotate in the same direction, thereby driving the bottle body to rotate. During the rotation of the bottle body, the label on the label roller 63 is attached to the bottle body, thereby completing the bottle body labeling operation. Figure 2 As shown, when it is necessary to label flat items, the flat items, such as packaging boxes, push the storage plate 4. At this time, the slider 41 on the storage plate 4 moves along the guide groove 5. When the storage plate 4 moves into the installation groove 2, the storage plate 4 blocks the support assembly and is located below the label assembly. The packaging box is placed on the storage plate 4, and then the position relationship of the bracket 62 on the stand 61 is adjusted according to the distance between the packaging box and the label roller 63. The specific adjustment method is: a plurality of locking positions 611 are provided along the vertical direction of the stand 61. The bracket 62 is moved to a suitable height, and then one end of the locking member 6211 is connected to the locking position 611 through the through hole, thereby completing the fixation of the bracket 62 on the stand 61. After adjusting the distance between the label roller 63 and the storage plate 4, the labeling operation can be carried out. When labeling the packaging box, the storage plate 4 can be driven to move along the guide groove 5 by a telescopic cylinder or a telescopic motor. With this design, the labeling operation can be completed for the packaging box. In the design concept of this application, how the label on the label roller 63 is labeled on the bottle body is a conventional method in this technical field. Since it is not the main design concept of this application, its working principle will not be described in detail in this article.

[0036] The drawings in this application primarily illustrate the switching of labeling operations between a single bottle and a single packaging box. During the experimental phase, the design of the bottle, bottle label, or packaging box decoration and shape only requires labeling a few products. For example, after labeling, the designer will evaluate the overall aesthetics of the bottle and make design modifications. Alternatively, the label assembly can be positioned on the side of the operating table 1, with the label roller 63 positioned above the bottle and capable of attaching it. The length of the label roller 63 should be perpendicular to the conveying direction of the bottle.

[0037] On the basis of the above technical solution, the present application designs the label roller 63 to be detachably connected to the bracket 62, so that when the label is used up, it can be easily replaced with a new label.

[0038] During the laboratory testing phase, in order to improve the applicability of the existing labeling machine, this application provides a mounting slot 2 on the operating table 1, a support assembly is provided in the mounting slot 2, and a storage plate 4 is provided on the storage slot 3. By switching the position of the storage plate 4 on the operating table 1, the labeling machine can be applied not only to bottles with curved shapes, but also to labeling operations of flat items, thereby enhancing the applicability of the labeling machine.

[0039] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art from this disclosure that various changes or modifications may be made to the present invention without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention as defined in the claims. Therefore, the detailed description of the disclosed embodiments is intended to illustrate rather than limit the present invention, which shall be defined by the claims.
