[0028]

[0029] ​In some embodiments of the utility model, the trademark paper carrier 21 comprises a horizontally arranged stacker 23, a plurality of trademark papers are stacked and placed on the top surface of the stacker 23, and the lifting support 22 is connected to the bottom surface of the stacker 23.

[0030] Specifically, the stacker 23 can be lifted under the drive of the lifting support 22, so as to adjust the height of the trademark paper stack, ensure that the topmost trademark paper is always in the material taking position, and facilitate the efficient material taking of the material taking mechanism 3.

[0031] In some embodiments of the utility model, the lifting support 22 comprises a base 24, a driving mechanism 25 and two adjusting rods 26. The base 24 is arranged directly below the stacker 23; the two adjusting rods 26 are symmetrically arranged on the two sides of the width direction of the base 24, the bottom end of the adjusting rod 26 is rotationally connected to the base 24, the top end of the adjusting rod 26 is connected to the bottom of the stacker 23 through a rotary translation assembly 27, and the driving mechanism 25 is connected to the middle part of the two adjusting rods 26 respectively to drive the two adjusting rods 26 to rotate synchronously.

[0032] Specifically, the driving mechanism 25 can synchronously drive the two adjusting rods 26 to rotate, so as to change the angle of the two adjusting rods 26, and then drive the stacker 23 to lift, so as to ensure that the topmost trademark paper is always at the material taking height. The symmetric arrangement of the two adjusting rods 26 improves the stability of the stacker 23 during lifting.

[0033] In some embodiments, the driving mechanism 25 can be arranged as two air cylinders, the two air cylinders correspond to the two adjusting rods 26 one by one, the fixed end of the air cylinder is connected to the base 24, and the piston rod of the air cylinder is rotationally connected to the middle part of the adjusting rod 26. When the piston rod of the air cylinder is extended, the included angle between the adjusting rod 26 and the base 24 becomes larger, and the stacker 23 rises; when the piston rod of the air cylinder is retracted, the included angle between the adjusting rod 26 and the base 24 becomes smaller, and the stacker 23 descends.

[0034] In some embodiments of this utility model, the drive mechanism 25 includes a first drive motor 251, a moving plate 252, a first lead screw 253, two guide rods 254, and two connecting rods 255. The two guide rods 254 are spaced apart and parallel to each other in the width direction of the base 24, and their two ends are fixedly connected to the base 24. The first lead screw 253 is located between the two guide rods 254 and parallel to them, and its two ends are rotatably connected to the base 24. The two guide rods 254 pass through the two ends of the moving plate 252, and the first lead screw 253 passes through the moving plate 252 and the two are threadedly connected. The first drive motor 251 can drive the first lead screw 253 to rotate so that the moving plate 252 reciprocates along the length direction of the base 24. The top ends of the two connecting rods 255 are rotatably connected to the middle of the two adjusting rods 26, and the bottom ends of the two connecting rods 255 are rotatably connected to the two ends of the moving plate 252.

[0035] Specifically, the first lead screw 253 is threadedly connected to the moving plate 252. When the first drive motor 251 drives the first lead screw 253 to rotate in the forward or reverse direction, the moving plate 252 moves forward or backward along the length direction of its bottom end. This causes the tilt angle of the two connecting rods 255 connected to the moving plate 252 to increase or decrease, thereby increasing or decreasing the tilt angle of the adjusting rod 26, and consequently causing the pallet 23 to rise or fall. The two guide rods 254, which are spaced apart and parallel to each other in the width direction of the base 24, provide greater stability when the moving plate 252 moves and improve the synchronization of the movement of the two connecting rods 255.

[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the rotation and translation component 27 includes a convex slide rail 271 and a slider 272; the top surface of the convex slide rail 271 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the pallet 23, and the convex slide rail 271 extends along the width direction perpendicular to the moving plate 252; the slider 272 is slidably connected to the bottom of the convex slide rail 271; and the adjusting rod 26 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the slider 272.

[0037] Specifically, when the tilt angle of the adjusting rod 26 changes, the slider 272 will move along the convex slide rail 271 as the adjusting rod 26 rotates, thereby enabling the pallet 23 to rise and fall vertically.

[0038] In some embodiments of this utility model, the feeding mechanism 2 further includes a cylindrical baffle 28, which is installed above the base 24, and the pallet 23 can move vertically along the cylindrical baffle 28.

[0039] Specifically, when multiple labels are stacked on the pallet 23, the cylindrical baffles 28 surrounding the pallet 23 can block the labels and effectively prevent the stack of labels from collapsing; when the picking mechanism 3 picks up the label at the picking height and there are no labels, the pallet 23 moves vertically along the cylindrical baffles 28.

[0040] In some embodiments of this utility model, the height of the cylindrical baffle 28 is adjustable.

[0041] Specifically, when the packaging process begins, the distance between the top of the cylindrical baffle 28 and the bottom of the pallet 23 can be adjusted according to the height of the stack of trademark paper, so that the trademark paper at the top of the stack of trademark paper can be exposed above the cylindrical baffle 28, making it convenient for the picking mechanism to obtain the trademark paper.

[0042] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the cylindrical baffle 28 is provided with a plurality of circumferentially spaced axial through holes, and a plurality of round rods 281 are slidably fitted into all the through holes in a one-to-one correspondence, and the lower ends of all the round rods 281 are connected to the base 24. Among them, two round rods 281 are provided with external threads to form lifting screws 282, and the lifting screws 282 and their corresponding axial through holes are provided with threaded engagement; the base 24 is provided with two second drive motors 283, and the two second drive motors 283 can drive the two lifting screws 282 to rotate circumferentially in a one-to-one correspondence so that the cylindrical baffle 28 rises and falls axially.

[0043] Specifically, after a stack of label paper is placed on the pallet 23, the two second drive motors 283 drive their connected lifting screws 282 to rotate. The two lifting screws 282 rotate in the same direction, thereby changing the distance between the top of the cylindrical baffle 28 and the bottom surface of the pallet 23, so that the label paper at the top of the stack of label paper is exposed. Multiple round rods 281 are axially inserted through the periphery of the cylindrical baffle 28, which can enhance the movement stability of the cylindrical baffle 28 when it is raised and lowered.

[0044] In some embodiments, two lifting screws 282 passing through the cylindrical baffle 28 are diagonally distributed.

[0045] It should be noted that when the cylindrical baffle 28 is raised or lowered, the output shafts of the two second drive motors 283 maintain the same speed and direction of rotation.

[0046] In some embodiments of this utility model, the material handling mechanism 3 includes a robotic arm 31, with a mounting plate at the end of the robotic arm 31. Multiple vacuum suction cups 32 are spaced apart on the bottom surface of the mounting plate. The vacuum suction cups 32 are connected to a vacuum pump through a vacuum pipeline equipped with solenoid valves. A controller capable of controlling all solenoid valves is provided on the robotic arm 31. A proximity sensor is provided on the mounting plate, and the proximity sensor is signal-connected to the controller.

[0047] Specifically, when the trademark paper is sucked, the proximity sensor sends a signal to the controller after sensing the position of the trademark paper, so that the controller opens the electromagnetic valve, so that the vacuum suction cup 32 can suck the trademark paper. When the mechanical arm 31 moves to the conveying mechanism 1, the vacuum pump is vented, and the trademark paper is placed on the conveying mechanism 1.

[0048] It should be noted that the specific structure of the mechanical arm 31 is not limited, and those skilled in the art can select any mechanical arm 31 that can achieve the corresponding technical effect according to the needs.

[0051] In addition, it should be noted that various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any appropriate manner without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, the utility model does not further describe various possible combination modes.

[0052] In addition, various different embodiments of the utility model can also be combined arbitrarily, as long as it does not deviate from the idea of the utility model, and it should also be considered as disclosed by the utility model.
