[0004] 2. Large space occupation: In some production environments with limited space, the suction mechanism will take up too much space, affecting the layout and operation of the equipment. Especially for some small labeling machines or scenes that need to label in a narrow space, the size of the suction cup of the suction mechanism may become a limiting factor. Utility Model Content

[0011] The switch for detecting that the label is in place and labeling is completed is a proximity switch, and its model is TL-Q5MC1-Z.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. Simple structure, easy maintenance and cleaning: The suction surface of the suction cup is flat and has no seals. It has a simple structure and can be cleaned by wiping it directly without worrying about damaging the suction surface and sealing parts.

[0014] 2. Takes up little space.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the embodiments and drawings, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2, an adsorption mechanism for a labeling machine, comprising two rigid mounting plates 1 (as the main support part of the entire mechanism), a horizontal labeling telescopic cylinder 2 is fixed on the two rigid mounting plates 1, a linear bearing 4 is fixed on the rigid mounting plate 1, a horizontal telescopic guide shaft 3 is mounted on the linear bearing 4 and slides horizontally, one end of which is rigidly mounted on a swing arm fixing plate 6, one end of the floating switch 5 is rigidly mounted on the telescopic rod head of the horizontal labeling telescopic cylinder 2, and the other end is rigidly mounted on the swing arm fixing plate 6, the swing arm fixing plate 6 is rigidly mounted on one end face of the horizontal telescopic guide shaft 3, the swing arm labeling The labeling cylinder 7 is fixed below the horizontal telescopic guide shaft 3 and moves in the horizontal direction. The swing arm rotating bearing seat 8 is rigidly mounted and fixed on the swing arm fixing plate 6. The swing arm 9 is fixed on the swing arm fixing plate 6. One end face is connected to the swing arm labeling cylinder 7, and the other end is installed with a switch 10 for detecting whether the label is in place and the labeling is completed, a label suction head 11, and a buffer spring 12. The switch 10 for detecting whether the label is in place and the labeling is completed is installed at the opposite end of the swing arm 9, the label suction head 11 is installed below the opposite end of the swing arm 9, and the buffer spring 12 is installed in the middle position between the swing arm 9 and the label suction head 11.

[0024] Working principle description:

[0025] The printing engine (not shown in the drawings of the specification) receives the label printing signal, and the label runs from the printing engine to the bottom of the suction and application head 11 while printing. When the detection switch 10 for detecting the label in place and labeling completion detects that there is a label adsorbed on the suction and application head 11 (the air generator cooperates with the suction and application head 11 to adsorb the label on the suction and application head), it prepares to apply the label (if the detection switch 10 for detecting the label in place and labeling completion detects that there is no label, it will automatically alarm and stop for processing. This function can ensure that no label is missed and the data is accurately associated); when a product runs to the labeling area and needs to be labeled, the horizontal labeling telescopic cylinder 2 and the swing arm labeling cylinder 7 work simultaneously to stick the label to the designated position of the product. After labeling is completed, the horizontal labeling telescopic cylinder 2 and the swing arm labeling cylinder 7 reset at the same time and wait for the label to be issued. During the process of waiting for the label to be issued, if the detection switch 10 for detecting the label in place and labeling completion detects a signal, an alarm signal will be output and the machine will stop.

[0026] The label placement and labeling completion detection switch 10 is a proximity switch, and its model is TL-Q5MC1-Z.

[0027] The suction holes on the suction surface of the suction disk of the label suction head 11 are in the shape of multiple rows of strips.

[0028] like Figure 3 and Figure 4When the cylinder shaft of the horizontal labeling telescopic cylinder 2 extends, the floating switch 5 and the horizontal telescopic guide shaft 3 extend at the same time. At the same time, the horizontal labeling telescopic cylinder 2 is reset (working), the swing arm rotates the shaft inside the bearing seat 8, and the swing arm 9 swings to form an angle with the swing arm fixing plate 6.

[0029] The above embodiments are preferred implementation methods of the present invention, but the implementation methods of the present invention are not limited to the above embodiments. Any other changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications that do not deviate from the spirit and principles of the present invention should be considered as equivalent replacement methods and are included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
