[0056] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 The following is a schematic diagram of the structure of the tongue mechanism 10 provided in some embodiments of this application. Figure 2 It shows Figure 1 A side view of the tongue structure 10 in this application. An embodiment of the tongue mechanism 10 provided in this application is used for inserting a workpiece into a molded part. The workpiece includes a body and two tongue portions connected to the body, the two tongue portions being disposed opposite each other on both sides of the body along a first direction F1. The tongue mechanism 10 includes a driving member 1, two transmission assemblies, and two tongue members 2.

[0057] "Parts to be formed" refers to components or assemblies that have been preliminarily formed according to design requirements before final processing or assembly. These components or assemblies typically require further processing to form the final product. Specifically, in this application, the parts to be formed include a body and two tongues connecting the body, which have been preliminarily formed according to design requirements. The further processing step is to insert the two tongues into the body to form the final product. "Transmission components" refers to parts used to transmit power and motion.

[0058] The driving component 1 is connected to two transmission assemblies, which are arranged opposite each other along a first direction F1. Two tongue components 2 are also arranged opposite each other along the first direction F1, each tongue component 2 being connected to one of the two transmission assemblies in a one-to-one correspondence, and each tongue component 2 is positioned on one side opposite to the two tongue portions. The two transmission assemblies are configured such that, under the action of the driving component 1, the two tongue components 2 can move towards each other or away from each other along the first direction F1.

[0059] The two transmission components, the two tongues, and the two tongue pieces 2 are all arranged along the second direction F2. The consistency of the arrangement makes the overall structure clearer, reduces design variations and manufacturing complexity, and makes the assembly process more standardized and modular, thereby improving assembly efficiency.

[0060] The driving component 1 simultaneously drives two transmission components to move. The two transmission components transmit power to the corresponding tongue component 2, enabling the two tongue components 2 to move towards or away from each other along the first direction F1. When the two tongue components 2 move towards each other, they abut against the tongue portion of the corresponding workpiece to be formed and push the tongue portion to the body to realize the tongue of the workpiece to be formed. In this way, the tongue insertion work of the two tongue portions of the workpiece to be formed is completed by only one driving component 1. The whole process is completed automatically, which not only improves production efficiency, but also saves manpower and production costs.

[0061] In some embodiments of this application, reference continues to be made to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 and in conjunction with reference Figure 3 , Figure 3 It shows Figure 1 A three-dimensional structural diagram of a portion of the tongue mechanism 10 is shown. The tongue mechanism 10 may also include a frame; the transmission assembly includes a first transmission member 3, a second transmission member 4, a connecting member 5, and a guide member 6 disposed on the frame. The first transmission member 3 is transmissionally connected to the drive member 1, and the first transmission member 3 is configured to be rotatably disposed on the frame about a first axis. The second transmission member 4 is transmissionally connected to the first transmission member 3, and the second transmission member 4 is configured to be rotatably disposed on the frame about a second axis. The connecting member 5 has a first connecting end 51 rotatably connected to the tongue member 2, and a second connecting end 52 rotatably connected to the second transmission member 4. The tongue member 2 is slidably connected to the guide member 6 along a first direction F1. The extension direction of the first axis is parallel to the first direction F1; the extension direction of the second axis, the extension direction of the central axis of the first connecting end 51, and the extension direction of the central axis of the second connecting end 52 are all parallel to each other. The extension direction of the first axis is perpendicular to the extension direction of the second axis.

[0062] Thus, by designing the first transmission component 3 and the second transmission component 4 to be rotatably mounted on the frame around the first axis and the second axis respectively, with the extension direction of the first axis parallel to the first direction F1 and the extension direction of the second axis perpendicular to the extension direction of the first axis, the power direction is changed from rotation around the first axis to rotation around the second axis. Through the ingenious design of the layout of the first transmission component 3 and the second transmission component 4, complex movements can be achieved within a limited space, making the overall structure more compact. Furthermore, by rotatably connecting the first connecting end 51 of the connector 5 to the tongue component 2, and the second connecting end 52 of the connector 5 to the second transmission component 4, and by arranging the extension directions of the second axis, the central axis of the first connecting end 51, and the central axis of the second connecting end 52 parallel to each other, power is transmitted from the second transmission component 4 to the connector 5, thereby driving the tongue component 2 to move. Moreover, the design of the guide component 6 restricts the tongue component 2 to movement only along the first direction F1. The guide component 6 can be configured as a slide rail, which reduces friction and wear, and improves movement accuracy. The second transmission component 4, the connecting component 5, the guide component 6, and the tongue component 2 can be considered as a crank-slider mechanism. In this crank-slider mechanism, the second transmission component 4 can be considered as a crank, the connecting component 5 can be considered as a connecting rod, and the tongue component 2 can be considered as a slider.

[0063] Reference continues to be made to some embodiments of this application. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The first transmission component 3 is configured as a wheel body, the driving component 1 includes a drive shaft, the wheel body is sleeved on the drive shaft, and the second transmission component 4 includes a driven wheel 42 and a rotating shaft 41. The driven wheel 42 is meshed with the first transmission component 3; and the driven wheel 42 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 41, and the rotating shaft 41 is rotatably connected to the connecting component 5. The central axis of the rotating shaft 41 is spaced apart from the central axis of the second connecting end 52.

[0064] The driving component 1 is a drive shaft, and two wheel components are mounted on the same drive shaft. When the drive shaft rotates around its central axis, the two wheel components are simultaneously driven to rotate, allowing power to be transmitted from the drive shaft to the two wheel components. Then, since the wheel components mesh with the driven wheel 42, they can transmit power to the driven wheel 42. Because the driven wheel 42 is connected to the rotating shaft 41, the rotating shaft 41 can be driven to rotate around its central axis. The driving wheel and driven wheel 42 can be configured as bevel gears, and designing the central axis of the driving wheel perpendicular to the central axis of the driven wheel 42 achieves a 90° change in the power direction. The overall structure is simple and reliable. Furthermore, by using gear meshing transmission, the transmission ratio can be adjusted by changing the number of teeth on the wheel components and driven wheel 42 to meet different application requirements.

[0065] In some embodiments of this application, reference continues to be made to... Figures 1 to 3The rotating shaft 41 includes a first part B1 and a second part B2 connected to each other. Along the extension direction of the central axis of the rotating shaft 41, the first part B1 has a first end D1 and a second end D2 disposed opposite to each other. A driven wheel 42 is disposed at the first end D1, and the second end D2 is connected to the second part B2. The second part B2 is disposed at the second end D2, and the second part B2 is rotatably connected to the second connecting end 52. The central axis of the second part B2 coincides with the central axis of the second connecting end 52.

[0066] Thus, the rotating shaft 41 includes a first part B1 and a second part B2. The central axis of the second part B2 coincides with the central axis of the second connecting end 52. The central axis of the rotating shaft 41 and the central axis of the second connecting end 52 are spaced apart, so the central axis of the second part B2 is also spaced apart from the central axis of the second connecting end 52, allowing the second part B2 to rotate around the central axis of the rotating shaft 41, thus forming the crank part in the crank-slider structure.

[0067] In some embodiments of this application, reference continues to be made to... Figures 1 to 3 The first part B1 includes a first sub-part Z1 and a second sub-part Z2 connected to each other. The first sub-part Z1 is connected to the driven wheel 42, and the second sub-part Z2 is connected to the second part B2. Along the extension direction of the central axis of the rotating shaft 41, the cross-sectional area of ​​the second sub-part Z2 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the first sub-part Z1.

[0068] The first part B1 is composed of a first sub-part Z1 and a second sub-part Z2. Since the second part B2 needs to be installed onto the second sub-part Z2 of the first part B1, the second part B2 needs to possess certain strength and rigidity. Furthermore, the second part B2 needs to have a certain mounting area. Therefore, designing the cross-sectional area of ​​the second sub-part Z2 to be larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the first sub-part Z1 along the extension direction of the central axis of the rotating shaft 41 satisfies the design requirements of the second sub-part Z2. The first sub-part Z1 is used for assembling the driven wheel 42. The structural design of the first sub-part Z1 mainly needs to consider the size of the driven wheel 42. Designing the cross-sectional area of ​​the second sub-part Z2 to be larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the first sub-part Z1 along the central axis of the rotating shaft 41 can save production costs.

[0069] In some embodiments of this application, reference continues to be made to... Figures 1 to 3The tongue mechanism 10 also includes a mounting member 7, which is slidably disposed on the guide member 6 along the first direction F1. The mounting member 7 includes a third part B3 extending along the first direction F1 and a fourth part B4 extending along the second direction F2. The first direction F1 and the second direction F2 are perpendicular to each other, and the third part B3 is connected to the connector 5 in a transmission manner. The tongue member 2 is mounted on the fourth part B4. And / or, the tongue member 2 includes a plurality of sub-tongue members 21 spaced apart along the second direction F2. The second direction F2, the first direction F1 and the extension direction of the first axis are perpendicular to each other.

[0070] In the case where "the tongue mechanism 10 also includes a mounting member 7, which is slidably disposed on the guide member 6 along the first direction F1, and the mounting member 7 includes a third part B3 extending along the first direction F1 and a fourth part B4 extending along the second direction F2, the first direction F1 and the second direction F2 are perpendicular to each other, and the third part B3 is connected to the connecting member 5 in a transmission manner, and the tongue member 2 is mounted on the fourth part B4", the design of the mounting member 7 facilitates the installation of the tongue member 2, which can be referred to as Figures 1 to 3 The tongue 2 has two opposite ends along the first direction F1, one end of which is connected to the mounting member 7, and the other end extends toward another tongue 2. Thus, the tongue 2 is mounted onto the mounting member 7 and moves along the first direction F1 with the mounting member 7. The mounting member 7 can be irregularly shaped to allow the tongue 2 to be mounted in various desired positions.

[0071] In the case where "the tongue member 2 includes multiple sub-tongue members 21 spaced apart along the second direction F2; the second direction F2, the first direction F1, and the extension direction of the first axis are mutually perpendicular", the multiple sub-tongue members 21 can simultaneously insert multiple products when the tongue members 2 move towards or away from each other. Furthermore, the arrangement of multiple sub-tongue members 21 can also increase the contact area between the tongue member 2 and the tongue part, making the tongue insertion process more stable and reliable.

[0072] The aforementioned “the tongue mechanism 10 also includes a mounting member 7, which is slidably disposed on the guide member 6 along the first direction F1. The mounting member 7 includes a third part B3 extending along the first direction F1 and a fourth part B4 extending along the second direction F2. The first direction F1 and the second direction F2 are perpendicular to each other, and the third part B3 is connected to the connecting member 5 in a transmission manner. The tongue member 2 is installed on the fourth part B4” and “the tongue member 2 includes a plurality of sub-tongue members 21 spaced apart along the second direction F2; the second direction F2, the first direction F1 and the extension direction of the first axis are perpendicular to each other in pairs” can be arbitrarily combined and set according to actual conditions.

The labeling and boxing device 100 has a folding tongue station ZW and a tongue insertion station CW sequentially arranged along the conveying direction of the tongue-folding part; the labeling and boxing device 100 also includes a first conveying mechanism S1 and a folding tongue mechanism 20.

[0076] The first conveying mechanism S1 is configured to transfer the tongue-to-be-folded part sequentially through the tongue-folding station ZW and the tongue-insertion station CW.

The tongue-to-tip piece includes a body connected to each other and two tongue parts to be folded, with the two tongue parts positioned opposite each other on both sides of the body along a first direction F1. The folding tongue mechanism 20 is used to bend the two tongue parts of the tongue-to-tip piece so that the two tongue parts are folded into tongue parts.

The first conveying mechanism S1 and the second conveying mechanism S2 are connected, and the third conveying mechanism S3 is connected to the first conveying mechanism S1.

[0081] Thus, after the material is labeled by the labeling mechanism 40, it is transferred to the pushing station TW of the pushing mechanism 50 via the second conveying mechanism S2. Simultaneously, the packaging box is opened by the opening mechanism 30 and transferred to the pushing station TW of the pushing mechanism 50 via the third conveying mechanism S3. The pushing mechanism 50 loads the labeled material into the opened packaging box, that is, into the flap to be folded. The simultaneous operation of the two production lines improves the overall production efficiency of the device. Furthermore, compared to arranging the first pre-processing station YW1 and the second pre-processing station YW2 both upstream or downstream, the upstream-downstream arrangement saves space.

[0082] In some embodiments of this application, reference continues to be made to... Figures 4 to 8 The labeling mechanism 40 includes a material picking component QL, a carrier component Z, and a labeling component TB. The material picking component QL is mounted on the carrier component Z, which is rotatably configured to allow the material picking component QL to have a material picking position QW, a labeling position BW, and a transfer position. The labeling component TB is located on one side of the carrier component Z. The labeling component TB is configured to label materials.

[0083] In this way, by using a single component Z to drive the material handling component QL to different positions to achieve various production processes, production efficiency is further improved. The labeling component TB can be set as a cylinder. When material passes through, the cylinder's reversing valve is controlled to switch directions, causing the cylinder to actuate and press the label onto the designated position on the material, completing the labeling process. The carrier Z can be set as a turntable.

[0084] In some embodiments of this application, reference continues to be made to... Figures 4 to 8 The material handling component QL also has a detection position JW; the labeling mechanism 40 also includes a detection component JC, which is set corresponding to the detection position JW; the material pushing mechanism 50 can push materials in response to the labeling information provided by the detection component JC.

[0085] The detection element JC is designed to detect whether the material passing the labeling position BW has been successfully labeled. If the detection element JC detects that the material has been labeled, the pushing mechanism 50 will push the labeled material into the flap folding section for the next flap folding process. If the detection element JC detects that the material has not been labeled, the pushing mechanism 50 will not push the unlabeled material.

[0086] In addition, this application also includes a controller that is electrically connected to the aforementioned mechanisms to control the fully automated operation of the entire labeling and boxing mechanism.

[0087] For ease of understanding, please refer to the example provided. Figures 4 to 8 Here is a brief description of the entire material production process.

[0088] The material is placed at the picking position QW, and the picking component QL is controlled to pick up the material. Then, the carrier component Z is controlled to rotate, and the carrier component Z moves the picking component QL from the picking position QW to the labeling position BW. At this time, the labeling component TB is controlled to label the material. Next, the carrier component Z continues to move the picking component QL to the detection position JW. At this time, the detection component JC is controlled to detect whether there is a label on the material, and the labeling information of the material is transmitted to the pushing mechanism 50. Then, the carrier component Z continues to move the picking component QL to the transfer position. At this time, the second transfer mechanism transfers the material from the transfer position to the pushing station TW.

[0089] At the same time, the box-opening mechanism 30 is controlled to open the box to form a folded tongue piece, and then the third transfer mechanism is controlled to transfer the folded tongue piece from the first pre-processing station YW1 to the pushing station TW.

[0090] Once both the folded tongue piece and the material arrive at the pushing station TW, the pushing mechanism 50 pushes the material according to the labeling information transmitted by the detection piece JC. After pushing, the third transmission mechanism is controlled to transfer the folded tongue piece, loaded with the labeled material, from the pushing station TW to the folding tongue station ZW. At this time, the folding tongue mechanism 20 is controlled to fold the tongue piece to form the part to be formed. Then, the first transmission mechanism is controlled to transfer the part to be formed from the folding tongue station ZW to the tongue insertion station CW to complete the tongue insertion process and obtain the final formed part.

[0091] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0092] The above embodiments merely illustrate several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
