Two bars are fixedly connected between the two three-pronged connecting plates to prevent the stack of paper cups from moving. A driving assembly is provided above one side plate of the equipment frame to drive the three-pronged connecting plates to rotate up and down.
[0007] The back plate of the equipment frame is fixedly connected to the equipment base plate, one side of the equipment base plate is rotatably connected to a material tray, and a pressure plate for fixing the label paper roll is detachably installed on the material tray through an extrusion assembly, and the other side of the equipment base plate is rotatably connected to two horizontally arranged and longitudinally distributed guide rollers, and the upper side wall of the equipment base plate is rotatably connected to two horizontally arranged and laterally distributed labeling separation rollers, and a label stripping plate adapted to the labeling separation roller is fixedly connected to a corner of the upper side of the equipment base plate, and a color mark sensor for sensing the movement of the label paper is provided on the side wall of the equipment base plate.

[0027] The back plate of the equipment frame 1 is fixedly connected to the equipment base plate 21, and one side of the equipment base plate 21 is rotatably connected to the material tray 10. The material tray 10 is detachably installed with a pressure plate 11 for fixing the label paper roll through the extrusion component 3. The other side of the equipment base plate 21 is rotatably connected to two horizontally arranged and longitudinally distributed guide rollers 12. The upper side wall of the equipment base plate 21 is rotatably connected to two horizontally arranged and laterally distributed label separation rollers 14.

The output end of the color mark sensor 22 is electrically connected to the input end of the electric control box 2, and the output end of the electric control box 2 is electrically connected to the input end of the drive assembly, the label collecting roller 13 and the top support assembly respectively.
[0028] As an optional embodiment, the driving assembly includes a telescopic cylinder 9, one end of the telescopic cylinder 9 is rotatably connected to the side panel of the equipment frame 1, and the other end is rotatably connected to the lower fork of the three-pronged connecting plate 7. The input end of the telescopic cylinder 9 is electrically connected to the output end of the electrical control box 2.

Four protrusions 3d are fixedly connected to the inner side of the sleeve hole 3a, and four slots 3c adapted to be plugged in are opened on the upper side wall of the middle shaft of the material tray 10. After the labeling roll is sleeved on the middle shaft of the material tray 10, , put the middle sleeve hole 3a of the pressure plate 11 on the middle shaft, at this time the protrusion 3d slides in the slot 3c, and then rotate the threaded sleeve 3b at the end of the middle shaft to squeeze and fix the pressure plate 11 to prevent the labeling roll from falling off.

[0031] As an optional embodiment, the top support assembly includes a first push-up cylinder 16 and a second push-up cylinder 17. The movable end of the first push-up cylinder 16 is connected to the side wall of the second push-up cylinder 17, and the mark-absorbing square tube 19 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the second push-up cylinder 17. The movable end of the second push-up cylinder 17 is connected to the bottom of the two top mark arc-surface frames 18 at the same time through the connecting bottom plate, and the two top mark arc-surface frames 18 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the mark-absorbing square tube 19. The input ends of the first push-up cylinder 16 and the second push-up cylinder 17 are both connected to the output end of the electric control box 2. Electrical connection, when the label is moved to the top of the label suction square tube 19, the label is adsorbed and fixed by the negative pressure suction of the air pump, and then the air pump controls the first pushing cylinder 16 to extend. At this time, the second pushing cylinder 17 moves up together with the label suction square tube 19 and the two top label arc-surface frames 18. The label suction square tube 19 drives the label to initially adhere to the stacked paper cup tubes, and then controls the second pushing cylinder 17 to drive the two top label arc-surface frames 18 to move up in two stages. At this time, the upper end arc surface of the top label arc-surface frame 18 drives the two sides of the label to deform into an arc and fit into the arc shape with the surface of the paper cup tube to complete the labeling.
[0032] With the above structure, the labeling roll is installed on the material tray 10, and the label is pulled to abut against the two guide rollers 12, and then to abut against one of the label separation rollers 14 and pulled horizontally. It is pulled to the right from under the label stripping plate 15 and then to the left from above it. After passing the other label separation roller 14, it is fixed to the label receiving roller 13 through the plug-in fixing part 4. When the stacked paper cup tubes slide down along the inclined guide plate 5, they abut against the barrier 8 and stop. At this time, the label suction square tube 19 and the two top label arc frames 18 are located under the stacked paper cup tubes. As the label receiving roller 13 is controlled to rotate, the label paper tape is driven to be reeled. When the label paper moves to the right side of the label stripping plate 15, the label paper is separated from the paper tape due to the left shift (see Figure 4 ), and the label-absorbing square tube 19 is adsorbed on its surface, and then the top support assembly is controlled to drive the label-absorbing square tube 19 and the two top label arc-surface frames 18 to perform a first displacement upward. At this time, the label-absorbing square tube 19 initially adheres the label paper to the surface of the stacked paper cup tubes, and then the two top label arc-surface frames 18 are controlled to rise at the same time for a second displacement. The two sides of the label paper are bent into an arc shape through the arc surface of their surfaces and fit with the arc surfaces of both sides of the stacked paper cup tubes. After the fitting is completed, the driving assembly is controlled to drive the three-pronged connecting plate 7 to flip upward, and drive the label-absorbing square tube 19 and the two top label arc-surface frames 18 to retract. At this time, the stacked paper cup tubes with the labels completed can fall along the inclined guide plate 5.
