Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of labeling equipment technology, and in particular to an online labeling machine. Background Technology
[0002] Labeling machines are devices that affix labels to specified packaging containers. Traditional labeling requirements are relatively simple, mainly targeting a single surface of the product. Product positioning is relatively convenient, and precise labeling can be achieved with the help of robotic arms. However, when multiple sides of a workpiece need to be labeled, traditional workpiece positioning methods obviously cannot meet the needs. After labeling one side, manually flipping and re-feeding the product increases costs and is extremely prone to errors, such as the product being fed to the labeling mechanism in the wrong position, leading to errors in subsequent labeling actions. How can we change the traditional product positioning method during labeling and adopt a more flexible positioning mechanism that can adjust the labeling surface of the product? This urgently requires an online labeling machine to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0023] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.
[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides an online labeling machine, including a machine base 1. The machine base 1 is equipped with a label printing module 17, a robotic arm handling module, a lifting and flipping module, and a camera detection module 16. When it is necessary to label a product, the label printing module 17 prints the label, the robotic arm handling module picks up the printed label, and the camera detection module 16 detects the label. If the label is qualified, the robotic arm handling module affixes the label to the product surface at the lifting and flipping module. The lifting and flipping module is configured on the side of the robotic arm handling module away from the label printing module 17 to adjust the position of the workpiece to be labeled.
[0025] Before applying the adhesive, the lifting frame 2 is equipped with a liftable flip base 3. The gripper on the flip base 3 first grabs the product to the adhesive application height, so as to cooperate with the robotic arm handling module to apply the label to the product surface. After the labeling action is completed on one side of the product, the flip drive 4 is activated to rotate the product on the flip base 3 by a certain angle. Then, the robotic arm handling module grabs the label again and performs a second adhesive application action on the product, thereby ensuring the stability of the workpiece positioning throughout the adhesive application process.
[0026] To further improve the stability of adhesive application on the workpiece on the flip base 3, a clamping drive component 5 is provided on the flip base 3. A clamping plate slide 7 is arranged between the clamping plate 6 and the movable end of the clamping drive component 5. Two sets of clamping plate slide grooves 9 are provided on the sliding base 8. The two sets of clamping plate slide grooves 9 are parallel to each other. Furthermore, a slider 10 is provided between the clamping plate slide 7 and the clamping plate slide groove 9. The slider 10 interacts with the clamping plate slide groove 9. The slider 10 is located at the movable end of the clamping drive component 5. By utilizing the interaction between the slider 10 and the clamping plate slide groove 9, the movement of the clamping plate 6 can be guided and limited. The two sets of clamping plate slide grooves 9 are parallel to each other, thereby ensuring the stability of the clamping plate 6 in clamping the workpiece each time.
[0027] The lifting drive component 11 drives the tilting base 3 to move up and down on the lifting frame 2, thereby placing the labeled workpiece back onto the conveying working surface and grabbing the next workpiece.
[0028] By setting up a transport frame 12, on which a robotic arm 13 is rotatably connected, the robotic arm 13 can support the robotic arm 13 to drive the robotic hand 14 to reciprocate between the label printing module 17 and the lifting and flipping module, so that the labeling working surface of the robotic hand 14 can stably cover the label printing module 17 and the lifting and flipping module, ensuring the stability of the adhesive application. By setting up a robotic hand lifting frame 15, it is convenient to cooperate with the camera detection module 16 to detect the label. After the robotic hand transport module grabs the label and detects it through the camera detection module 16, it is then transported to the lifting and flipping module for labeling, ensuring the accuracy of each labeling action.
[0029] When a product needs to be labeled, the label printing module prints the label, the robotic arm handling module picks up the printed label, the camera detection module detects the label, and if it passes the inspection, the robotic arm handling module affixes the label to the product surface at the lifting and flipping module. The lifting and flipping module is located on the side of the robotic arm handling module away from the label printing module to adjust the position of the workpiece to be labeled.
[0030] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. All equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
