Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of embossing technology, specifically to an RFID tag embossing device. Background Technology

[0002] Linen is a general term used by the hotel housekeeping department to refer to towels, tablecloths, sheets, pillowcases, etc., placed in guest rooms. Hotel linen generally refers to almost everything related to "cloth" in modern hotels, including bedding such as quilts and duvet covers, cotton quilt cores, sheets and bedspreads, pillowcases and pillow cores, fitted sheets and bed skirts, bed runners and mattress protectors, as well as towel products such as face towels, hand towels, bath towels, floor mats, bathrobes, etc. It also includes tablecloths, napkins, chair covers and table skirts, shower curtains, etc.

[0003] A common problem is the mismatch between the capacity of laundry equipment and the number of linens collected. For example, laundry equipment might be designed to process 50 sheets at a time, but the actual number of sheets collected from hotels may not be a multiple of 50. In such cases, washing linens directly according to the different hotels might reduce manual sorting, but it would prevent the laundry equipment from operating at full capacity, resulting in wasted space and reduced washing efficiency.

[0004] To solve the above problems, RFID tag chips can be set on the linen, and the RFID tag chips store hotel information. Then, the information stored in the RFID tag chips can be read by an RFID reader, which provides a basis for subsequent automated linen sorting and screening. The RFID tag chips are protected by a sealed plastic shell to prevent the RFID tag chips from being damaged by water or various chemical detergents during washing.

[0005] In order to connect the plastic shell to the fabric through a hot melt adhesive layer, there is an urgent need to design an RFID tag imprinting device. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to propose an RFID tag imprinting device to solve the problems mentioned in the background section above.

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is intended to aid in understanding this utility model, but does not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0022] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an RFID tag imprinting device includes a base 1 and an imprinting lower plate 2, an installation assembly 3 arranged perpendicularly to the base 1, a driving component 4 fixedly mounted on the installation assembly 3, a lifting plate 41 fixedly connected to the output end of the driving component 4, and an imprinting upper plate 5 connected to the lifting plate 41. A plurality of springs 42 are provided between the lifting plate 41 and the imprinting upper plate 5. The imprinting lower plate 2 is provided with a cavity groove 21 adapted to the RFID tag A, and the imprinting upper plate 5 is provided with an imprinting block embedded in the cavity groove 21. A heater is provided inside the imprinting lower plate 2 and / or the imprinting upper plate 5.

[0023] In use, the straw cloth needs to be fixed on the imprinting plate 2, and a hot melt adhesive layer is applied to the outside of the plastic shell A1 of the RFID tag A. Then, it is placed into the cavity groove 21 that matches the shape of the plastic shell A1. The RFID tag A is positioned by the cavity groove 21. Then, the RFID tag chip and the straw cloth are clamped by the cooperation of the imprinting block and the cavity groove 21. After that, the heater is turned on. The heating of the heater melts the hot melt adhesive layer and bonds the RFID tag chip and the straw cloth.

[0024] Specifically, the mounting component 3 includes an upright plate 31, a horizontal plate 32, a horizontal reinforcing plate 33, and a vertical reinforcing plate 34. The upright plate 31 is vertically connected to the base 1, the horizontal plate 32 is arranged vertically to the upright plate 31, the driving component 4 is fixed to the horizontal plate 32, the horizontal reinforcing plate 33 is connected to the upright plate 31 and the horizontal plate 32 respectively, and the vertical reinforcing plate 34 is connected to the base 1 and the upright plate 31 respectively. Through the above structure, the strength of the mounting component 3 is guaranteed.

[0025] The plastic housing A1 of the RFID tag A has two wing plates A11, which are used to apply a hot melt adhesive layer. The two imprinting blocks respectively abut against the wing plates A11, and then the wing plates A11 are hot-pressed to the fabric. During the hot pressing process, the wing plates A11 of the plastic housing A1 can extend the path length of heat conduction to the RFID chip in the plastic housing A1, thus avoiding heat damage to the RFID chip.

[0026] The upper end of the imprinting plate 2 is provided with two spaced quick clamps 6. The quick clamps 6 fix the straw cloth to the imprinting plate 2 to prevent the straw cloth from shifting position or wrinkling during the hot pressing process.

[0027] The quick clamp 6 is provided with a rubber sheet 61 for holding the straw cloth. The rubber sheet 61 is in direct contact with the straw cloth, which can increase the force-bearing area and further increase the stability of the straw cloth. In addition, the rubber sheet can prevent it from scratching the straw cloth.

[0028] The base 1 is provided with a slide rail 11, and the lower end of the imprinting plate 2 is provided with a slider 22 adapted to the slide rail 11. The imprinting plate 2 can be moved horizontally along the slide rail 11 to a position offset from the mounting component 3. By moving the imprinting plate 2 to a position offset from the mounting component 3 in advance, interference between the burlap and the mounting component 3 or the imprinting plate 2 can be prevented during the process of laying the burlap flat on the imprinting plate 2.

[0029] The slide rail 11 is equipped with a contact switch 7, and the driving component 4 is an electric telescopic mechanism. When the lower platen 2 moves to abut the contact switch 7, the driving component 4 drives the lifting plate 41 to move towards the lower platen 2, so that the imprinting block holds the RFID tag A and holds it for a set number of seconds. Then, the driving component 4 starts to reset. The lower platen 2 can be moved along the slide rail 11 by manual or automatic driving. When the lower platen 2 moves to abut the contact switch 7, it automatically performs the bonding work on the straw cloth and the RFID tag A.

[0030] Since the burlap is laid flat on the lower platen 2 and the RFID tag A is placed in the cavity groove 21, by placing the heater inside the upper platen 5, it is possible to prevent workers from accidentally touching the burlap or RFID tag A and getting burned. Furthermore, the mounting assembly 3 includes a baffle 36, the lower end of which extends to block the printing block, further preventing workers from accidentally touching the printing block and getting burned.

[0031] The mounting assembly 3 includes guide seats 35 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the drive member 4. The lifting plate 41 is provided with guide posts 411 embedded in the guide seats 35. Through the cooperation of the guide seats 35 and the guide posts 411, the lifting plate 41 is prevented from shifting during the lifting process, ensuring that the imprinting block is correctly aligned with the wing plate portion A11 of the plastic shell A1.
