[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown;

[0030] The intelligent label identification and tracking carton comprises a base 1 , one end of which is fixedly connected to a guide plate 2 .

[0031] In this embodiment: After investigation, the public (announcement) number: CN219143474U discloses a device for identifying express label. Although the design has the function of using a scraping plate to scrape together the dust and foreign matter adhered to the surface of the conveyor, thereby conveniently cleaning them, however, with the diversified development of the logistics industry, the specifications of cartons are becoming increasingly rich, and their heights show a large difference. In the process of identifying the labels affixed to the surface of the cartons, due to the different heights of the cartons, and the existing smart label scanner 5 usually has a fixed height setting, it cannot flexibly adapt to the label scanning needs of cartons of different heights. When the height of the carton changes, the height of the smart label scanner 5 must be manually adjusted, which not only increases the complexity and labor cost of the operation, but also seriously affects the work efficiency. In order to solve this technical problem, a lifting component 3 and an auxiliary component 4 are added on this basis.

[0032] More specifically:

[0033] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown:

[0034] In combination with the above content: the lifting component 3 includes an upper connecting plate 310, an L-shaped connecting rod 311, a horizontal plate 312 and an arc guide plate 313. The upper connecting plate 310 is arranged above the base 1, and the smart label scanner 5 is installed on the bottom surface of the upper connecting plate 310. Two horizontal plates 312 are arranged below the upper connecting plate 310. The upper surface of each horizontal plate 312 is fixedly connected to two L-shaped connecting rods 311. The end of the L-shaped connecting rod 311 away from the horizontal plate 312 is fixedly connected to the upper connecting plate 310. The two ends of each horizontal plate 312 are fixedly connected to two arc guide plates 313. The lifting component 3 also includes a support plate 37 and a built-in slide plate 39. The upper surface of the base 1 is fixedly connected to the support plate 37. The built-in slide groove 38 opened on the upper surface of the support plate 37 is inserted with a built-in slide plate 39. The slide plate 39 is slidably connected to the support plate 37, and the built-in slide plate 39 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the upper connecting plate 310. The lifting assembly 3 also includes a stepping motor 31, a conveyor belt 33, a baffle 34, a main conveyor roller 35 and an auxiliary conveyor roller 36. The main conveyor roller 35 and the auxiliary conveyor roller 36 are arranged in the rectangular groove 32 opened on the upper surface of the base 1. The surface of the main conveyor roller 35 and the auxiliary conveyor roller 36 is sleeved with a conveyor belt 33. The two ends of the main conveyor roller 35 and the auxiliary conveyor roller 36 are respectively inserted into the through holes opened inside the base 1. The main conveyor roller 35 and the auxiliary conveyor roller 36 are rotatably connected to the base 1. A stepping motor 31 is installed on the front surface of the base 1. The end of the output shaft of the stepping motor 31 is fixedly connected to one end of the main conveyor roller 35. A plurality of baffles 34 are fixedly connected to the surface of the conveyor belt 33 at equal intervals.

[0035] In this embodiment, the operation of the stepper motor 31 drives the main conveying roller 35 to rotate. The rotation of the main conveying roller 35 drives the conveyor belt 33 to rotate under the action of the auxiliary conveying roller 36. The rotation of the conveyor belt 33 drives the baffle 34 to move synchronously. The carton is on the surface of the conveyor belt 33. Under the action of the baffle 34, the carton is prevented from sliding. In the process of conveying the carton on the conveyor belt 33, when the surface of the carton and the curved guide plate 313 are in contact, the curved guide plate 313 and the horizontal plate 312 are moved upward synchronously under the restriction of the shape of the curved guide plate 313. The movement of the horizontal plate 312 drives the upper connecting plate 310 to move through the L-shaped connecting rod 311. During the movement of the upper connecting plate 310, the built-in slide plate 39 slides inside the support plate 37, which can make the upper connecting plate 31 0 moves smoothly, and the movement of the upper connecting plate 310 drives the smart label scanner 5 to move synchronously. When the carton slides from the surface of the curved guide plate 313 to the surface of the horizontal plate 312, the carton slides against the bottom surface of the horizontal plate 312, so that the upper connecting plate 310 no longer moves vertically. The label pasted on the carton is tracked when it moves from under the smart label scanner 5. In the process of conveying the carton, the carton slides against the surface of the curved guide plate 313, thereby lifting the smart label scanner 5 to move, thereby ensuring the distance between the label pasted on the carton and the smart label scanner 5, and ensuring the effect of carton label recognition, solving the technical problem of increasing the complexity and labor cost of operation by manually adjusting the height of the smart label scanner 5, and affecting work efficiency.

[0036] It should be noted that the intelligent label scanner 5 automatically reads the label information on the carton and transmits the time, location and other data to the database server in real time. The server processes and analyzes the received data and generates a report on the movement trajectory and status of the carton. Through the monitoring system or management software, the location and status of the carton can be checked in real time to detect abnormal situations such as delays and losses in a timely manner.

[0037] After the carton slides out from the surface of the horizontal plate 312, the upper connecting plate 310 slowly moves downward under the action of the arc-shaped guide plate 313 at the other end of the horizontal plate 312, so as to facilitate the identification of the carton label again.

[0038] Going further:

[0039] In an optional embodiment, the auxiliary component 4 includes a threaded rod 42, a bearing 43, an auxiliary plate 44 and an inclined plate 47. A threaded rod 42 is inserted into the threaded hole 41 opened on the surface of the support plate 37. The threaded rod 42 and the support plate 37 are threadedly connected. An auxiliary plate 44 is provided at one end of the threaded rod 42. A bearing 43 is installed on the side of the auxiliary plate 44 close to the threaded rod 42. The threaded rod 42 is inserted inside the bearing 43. The threaded rod 42 is rotatably connected to the auxiliary plate 44 through the bearing 43. The end of the threaded rod 42 away from the auxiliary plate 44 is fixedly connected to a handwheel, and one end of the auxiliary plate 44 is fixedly connected to the inclined plate 47. The auxiliary component 4 also includes a square rod 46. Square rods 46 are respectively inserted into the two square holes 45 opened on the surface of the support plate 37. The square rod 46 and the support plate 37 are slidably connected, and one end of the square rod 46 is fixedly connected to one side of the auxiliary plate 44.

[0040] In this embodiment: the rotation of the threaded rod 42 can drive the auxiliary plate 44 to move under the action of the thread, and the movement of the auxiliary plate 44 drives the square plug rod 46 to slide inside the square socket 45, thereby avoiding the problem of the auxiliary plate 44 rotating. The movement of the auxiliary plate 44 drives the inclined plate 47 to move synchronously. During the transportation of the carton, when the surface of the carton and the inclined plate 47 fit together, the carton slides on the conveyor belt 33 under the action of the inclined setting of the inclined plate 47 until the surface of the carton and the auxiliary plate 44 fit together, thereby adjusting the position of the carton, which is beneficial to adjust the position of the carton during the label identification process according to the size range of the carton, and further ensures the effect of carton label identification.

[0041] Working principle: When the label on the carton needs to be identified by the smart label scanner 5, the carton to be identified is placed on the conveyor belt 33, and the label on the carton is facing upwards, the connecting line of the stepper motor 31 is connected to the external power supply, and the stepper motor 31 is started by the controller. The operation of the stepper motor 31 drives the main conveyor roller 35 to rotate. The rotation of the main conveyor roller 35 drives the conveyor belt 33 to rotate under the action of the auxiliary conveyor roller 36. The rotation of the conveyor belt 33 drives the baffle 34 to move synchronously, and the carton on the conveyor belt 33 is moved synchronously. The surface of the carton is prevented from sliding under the action of the baffle 34. During the transportation of the carton on the conveyor belt 33, when the carton and the surface of the curved guide plate 313 are in contact with each other, the curved guide plate 313 and the horizontal plate 312 are moved upward synchronously under the restriction of the shape of the curved guide plate 313. The movement of the horizontal plate 312 drives the upper connecting plate 310 to move through the L-shaped connecting rod 311. During the movement of the upper connecting plate 310, the built-in slide plate 39 slides inside the support plate 37, thereby allowing the upper connecting plate 310 to move smoothly. The movement of 10 drives the smart label scanner 5 to move synchronously. When the carton slides from the surface of the curved guide plate 313 to the surface of the horizontal plate 312, the carton slides against the bottom surface of the horizontal plate 312, so that the upper connecting plate 310 no longer moves vertically. When the label attached to the carton moves from under the smart label scanner 5, the smart label scanner 5 automatically reads the label information attached to the carton and transmits the time, location and other data to the database server in real time. The server processes and analyzes the received data to generate a movement trajectory and status report of the carton. Through the monitoring system or management software, the position and status of the carton can be viewed in real time, and abnormal situations such as delays and losses can be discovered in time. During the process of conveying the carton, the carton slides against the surface of the curved guide plate 313, thereby lifting the smart label scanner 5 to move, thereby ensuring the distance between the label attached to the carton and the smart label scanner 5, and ensuring the effect of carton label recognition. This solves the technical problem of increasing the complexity and labor cost of operation by manually adjusting the height of the smart label scanner 5, which affects work efficiency.

[0042] During use, the threaded rod 42 is rotated, and the rotation of the threaded rod 42 can drive the auxiliary plate 44 to move under the action of the thread. The movement of the auxiliary plate 44 drives the square plug rod 46 to slide inside the square socket 45, avoiding the problem of the auxiliary plate 44 rotating. The movement of the auxiliary plate 44 drives the inclined plate 47 to move synchronously. During the transportation of the carton, when the surface of the carton and the inclined plate 47 fit together, the carton slides on the conveyor belt 33 under the action of the inclined setting of the inclined plate 47 until the surface of the carton and the auxiliary plate 44 fit together, thereby adjusting the position of the carton, which is beneficial to adjust the position of the carton according to the size range of the carton during the process of identifying the label on the carton, further ensuring the effect of carton label identification.
