[0023] As attached Figure 1 As shown, a robot-based paper tube loader includes a paper tube temporary storage rack 1, a paper tube conveying mechanism 2, a translation mechanism 3, a labeling machine 4, and a paper tube pushing mechanism 5. The paper tube conveying mechanism 2 is installed on the moving part of the translation mechanism 3. The translation mechanism 3 is located between the paper tube temporary storage rack 1 and the paper tube pushing mechanism 5. A labeling machine 4 for labeling paper tubes is provided on one side of the paper tube pushing mechanism 5.

[0024] The paper tube temporary storage rack 1 consists of an upper plate 11, a lower plate 12, and perforations 13. The upper plate 11 and the lower plate 12, which are parallel to each other, are both provided with a plurality of perforations 13, and the plurality of perforations 13 on the upper plate 11 correspond to the plurality of perforations 13 on the lower plate 12.

[0025] The paper tubes are passed vertically through the perforations 13 of the upper plate 11 and the lower plate 12 and are then placed on the paper tube temporary storage rack 1 .

[0026] As attached Figure 2 As shown, the paper tube handling mechanism 2 includes a multi-axis manipulator 21, a double-headed cylinder 22, and a clamping block 23. A connecting plate is fixed on the multi-axis manipulator 21, a laser rangefinder and two double-headed cylinders 22 are fixed on the connecting plate, and clamping blocks 23 are fixed on the piston rods at both ends of the double-headed cylinder 22. A V-shaped groove is provided on the inner side of the clamping block 23.

[0027] The piston rods at both ends of the double-headed cylinder 22 extend and retract synchronously to control the opening and closing of the two clamping blocks 23 , and the paper tube is clamped in the V-shaped grooves of the two clamping blocks 23 .

[0028] As attached Figure 4As shown, the translation mechanism 3 includes a slide 31, a straight rail 32, a gear 33, a motor 34, an auxiliary gear 35, and a spur rack 36. The slide 31 is slidably connected to two parallel straight rails 32. A spur rack 36 is fixed on the straight rail 32. The gear 33 and the auxiliary gear 35 are both engaged with the spur rack 36. The gear 33 and the auxiliary gear 35 are both rotatably connected to the slide 31. The body of the motor 34 is fixed on the slide 31, the output shaft of the motor 34 is fixed on the gear 33, and the multi-axis manipulator 21 is installed on the slide 31.

[0029] The motor 34 drives the gear 33 to rotate, and the gear 33 and the auxiliary gear 35 roll along the straight rail 32 , thereby driving the slide 31 to move horizontally and linearly along the straight rail 32 .

[0030] As attached Figure 3 As shown, the labeling machine 4 includes a label printer 41, a multi-axis robot 42, a suction cup 43, and a horizontal cylinder 44.

The slide is slidably connected to a horizontal straight rail, and the slide is connected to the piston rod of the horizontal cylinder 44.

[0031] After the label printer 41 outputs a label, the multi-axis robot 42 drives the suction cup 43 to suck the label, and then the horizontal cylinder 44 drives the multi-axis robot 42 to move forward to the top of the paper tube, and finally drives the suction cup 43 to stick the label to the paper tube.

[0034] The operating method of this application is as follows: the translation mechanism 3 drives the paper tube transport mechanism 2 to the paper tube temporary storage rack 1, where the paper tube transport mechanism 2 removes the vertical paper tube. The translation mechanism 3 then drives the paper tube transport mechanism 2 to the paper tube ejection mechanism 5, which places the paper tube horizontally onto the horizontal roller 51. The labeling machine 4 then applies labels to the horizontally placed paper tube below. Finally, the paper tube ejection mechanism 5 pushes the paper tube horizontally to another workstation.
