If present, the terms "vertical", "horizontal", "up", "down", "left", "right" and similar expressions used in the present application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only implementation.

[0035] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 A conveying mechanism 100 is shown in an embodiment of the present application, which is arranged between an upstream carousel mechanism and a downstream delivery line. In addition, a transfer mechanism should also be provided between the carousel mechanism and the delivery line, which is used to transfer products 200 between the carousel mechanism and the conveying mechanism 100, and between the conveying mechanism 100 and the delivery line.

[0036] Specifically, the conveying mechanism 100 in the present application includes a conveying seat body 10, a power module 20, a transmission module 30 and a plurality of load blocks 40.

[0037] The power module 20 is arranged on the conveying seat body 10; the transmission module 30 is rotatably arranged on the conveying seat body 10, and the transmission module 30 is in transmission connection with the power module 20, and the transmission module 30 can rotate along a preset direction; a plurality of object carrying blocks 40 are arranged on the transmission module 30 along the preset direction and can move along with the transmission module 30.

[0038] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The object carrying block 40 is formed with an object carrying groove 41 for accommodating the product 200, and the object carrying block 40 is also provided with a clamping gap 42 in communication with the object carrying groove 41, and the clamping gap 42 is used for enabling the clamp to enter and exit the object carrying groove 41.

[0039] It should be noted that only one product 200 can be accommodated in the object carrying groove 41 of one object carrying block 40, and of course two or more products 200 can also be accommodated according to actual needs, and the specific selection is flexible.

[0040] In order to simplify the structure of the object carrying block 40 and facilitate the pick-up of the product 200 from the object carrying groove 41 by the transfer mechanism, the embodiment of the present application adopts the implementation mode of arranging only one object carrying groove 41 on one object carrying block 40.

[0041] In order to facilitate understanding of the technical scheme, the product 200 is taken as a lipstick in the shape of a cylinder, and the lipstick is placed in the object carrying groove 41 in a lying posture.

[0042] In summary, the implementation of the technical scheme of the embodiment will obtain the following beneficial effects: when the conveying mechanism 100 of the present scheme works, it is used to receive the product 200 which has completed the labeling process and is transferred from the turntable mechanism, and the product 200 is arranged in order, and then the neatly arranged product 200 is transferred to the delivery line body by the transfer mechanism, so that the product 200 can be arranged in a box in the required posture; specifically, as the turntable mechanism continuously rotates and delivers the product 200 which has completed the labeling process, the power module 20 drives the transmission module 30 to rotate along a preset direction, thereby driving the plurality of object carrying blocks 40 to sequentially engage with the turntable mechanism to receive the product 200 delivered from the turntable mechanism, the product 200 enters the object carrying groove 41 and is positioned and constrained by the object carrying groove 41 to ensure stable placement, and since the positions and postures of the plurality of object carrying blocks 40 are set, the positions and postures of the products 200 entering the plurality of object carrying blocks 40 can also be determined, so that the positions and postures of the products 200 after being taken out from the object carrying blocks 40 by the transfer mechanism and transferred to the delivery line body are also determined, which meets the requirement of box packaging, thereby facilitating the workers or automatic box packaging equipment to directly package the products 200, without the need to adjust the posture of the product 200, saving time and labor, improving production efficiency, and reducing labor cost.

[0043] In the present application, the carrier block 40 is a rectangular block, the length direction of the carrier block 40 is set as the first direction, and the carrier groove 41 is arranged along the first direction; the width direction of the carrier block 40 is set as the second direction.

[0044] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the carrier block 40 has a first direction, the carrier block 40 includes a first carrier body 40a, a connecting body 40b, and a second carrier body 40c, the first carrier body 40a, the connecting body 40b, and the second carrier body 40c are sequentially connected along the first direction, the first carrier body 40a and the second carrier body 40c are arranged protruding from the upper surface of the connecting body 40b, the first carrier body 40a is recessed with a first recess 41a, the second carrier body 40c is recessed with a second recess 41c, and the first recess 41a and the second recess 41c cooperate to form the carrier groove 41.

[0045] Therefore, when the product 200 is transferred from the rotary disc mechanism to the carrier block 40, one end of the product 200 in the length direction is placed in the first recess 41a, and the other end of the product 200 in the length direction is placed in the second recess 41c, at this time, the side walls of the first recess 41a and the second recess 41c form effective limiting for the two ends of the product 200, which can ensure that the product 200 is placed stably in the carrier groove 41.

[0046] Since the first carrier body 40a and the second carrier body 40c are arranged protruding from the upper surface of the connecting body 40b, the middle part of the product 200 in the placed state does not contact the upper surface of the connecting body 40b, but is in a suspended state, which is more conducive to the clamps of the transfer mechanism extending into the carrier groove 41 and forming a larger contact area with the outer peripheral surface of the product 200, thereby achieving effective clamping of the product 200.

[0047] Further, the first recess 41a and / or the second recess 41c have opposite first and second inclined surfaces arranged in a V-shaped structure. The first and second inclined surfaces arranged in a V-shaped structure form good lateral limiting effect on the product 200, and the product 200 is positioned close to the bottom of the V-shaped structure under the action of gravity, so that the product 200 is not easy to move laterally under the influence of environmental vibration and other factors to change the position accuracy, or even fall off from the carrier block 40.

[0048] It can be understood that the general clamp is composed of the first clamping body and the second clamping body which can approach or move away from each other, so in an embodiment, the carrier block 40 will also have a second direction which is arranged intersecting the first direction, and the clamping gap 42 is provided with two clamping gaps 42 which are arranged opposite and spaced apart along the second direction. In operation, the first clamping body and the second clamping body can respectively extend into the product carrier groove 41 from the corresponding clamping gap 42 to clamp the product 200, so as to more firmly clamp the product 200 and improve the material taking effectiveness.

[0049] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 Further, the groove bottom wall of the product carrier groove 41 is provided with at least one negative pressure suction hole 43 which is used to communicate with the negative pressure generating device through the vacuum pipeline. The product 200 is subjected to the adsorption force through the negative pressure suction hole 43, which helps to improve the stability of the product 200 placed in the product carrier groove 41.

[0050] In this application, the transmission module 30 can adopt any one of but not limited to a belt pulley mechanism, a chain wheel mechanism and the like, which can be flexibly selected according to actual needs.

[0051] In order to realize the assembly and fixation of the carrier block 40 and the transmission module 30, in an embodiment, the conveying mechanism 100 further comprises a fastening connecting piece, the groove bottom wall of the product carrier groove 41 is provided with a mounting hole 44, and the fastening connecting piece is arranged in the mounting hole 44 and connected with the transmission module 30.

[0052] For example, the fastening connecting piece can be a threaded part such as a screw, a bolt and the like. The carrier block 40 is assembled and fixed with the transmission module 30 in a threaded mounting mode, the connection mode is simple, the connection strength and reliability are high, and the assembly and disassembly are convenient and labor-saving.

[0053] In order to improve the transfer efficiency of the product 200 between the conveying mechanism 100 and the delivery line body, the application adopts the technical scheme that multiple products 200 are simultaneously grabbed and transferred.

[0054] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 Based on the above, in an embodiment, the conveying mechanism 100 further comprises a stop module 50, the stop module 50 comprises a stop seat, a support rod, a stop motor and a stop plate, the stop seat is arranged on the side surface of the conveying seat body 10, the support rod is arranged on the stop seat, the stop motor is arranged on the support rod and is in transmission connection with the stop plate, so that the stop plate can extend into or exit the conveying path of the transmission module 30, and when the stop plate extends into the conveying path of the transmission module 30, the stop plate abuts against the carrier block 40.

[0055] Therefore, when the set number of the carrier blocks 40 move to the grabbing position, the stop motor drives the stop plate to extend into the conveying path to block the rear carrier blocks 40, so as to ensure that the set number of the carrier blocks 40 and the products 200 can stop in the range of the grabbing position, and avoid affecting the effective and accurate grabbing of the plurality of products 200 by the clamp of the transfer mechanism.

[0056] For example, the clamp in the present application can grab five products 200 in five carrier blocks 40 at the same time. That is, in the way of transferring five products 200 as a batch, the transfer efficiency of the products 200 can be significantly improved compared with the single transfer mode.

[0057] In addition, on the basis of any of the above embodiments, the conveying mechanism 100 further comprises a first product detection electric eye 60, which is arranged on the conveying seat body 10 and located at the entering end of the transmission module 30, and is used for controlling the carrier blocks 40 to stop moving. Therefore, the carrier blocks 40 can be accurately stopped at the receiving station, so that the clamp can accurately release the products into the carrier blocks 40.

[0058] Further, the conveying mechanism 100 further comprises a second product detection electric eye 70, which is arranged on the conveying seat body 10 and located at the sending end of the transmission module 30, and is used for detecting whether there is a product 200 on the carrier block 40. After the second product detection electric eye 70 detects the product 200 on the carrier block 40, a feedback signal can be fed back to the controller to control the transfer mechanism to perform the grabbing action.

[0059] Optionally, the first product detection electric eye 60 and the second product detection electric eye 70 can be any one of a camera, a sensor and the like, which can be flexibly selected according to actual needs.

[0060] In summary, the present application also provides a labeling equipment, which comprises the conveying mechanism 100 according to any of the above embodiments.

[0061] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any manner. In order to make the description concise, all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are not described, but as long as the combinations of the technical features do not exist contradictory, they should be considered as the scope of the present application.

[0062] The above embodiments only express several implementation manners of the present application, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be understood as a limitation on the patent scope of the present application. It should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled persons in the art, some modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present application should be subject to the appended claims.
