[0024] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, an automatic shoe tongue label cutting and pressing machine includes a base 1, a positioning template 2, a cutting mechanism 5, a transfer mechanism 6, and a pressing mechanism 7. The base 1 has a first conveyor belt 11 and a second conveyor belt 12 arranged side-by-side. The first conveyor belt 11 has a label placement station and a label pressing station. The first conveyor belt 11 is used to transport shoe tongues 3. At the label placement station, shoe tongue labels 41 are placed on the shoe tongues 3, and at the label pressing station, the shoe tongue labels 41 are pressed together. Simultaneously, the second conveyor belt 12 is used to transport label strips 4, which are cut to form shoe tongue labels 41.

[0026] As shown in Figure 1, the positioning template 2 is positioned above the first conveyor belt 11 and moves up and down. Specifically, the positioning template 2 is driven by a positioning cylinder 22 mounted on the base 1, and the positioning template 2 has a positioning groove 21 that matches the shoe tongue 3. In use, the positioning template 2 is brought close to the first conveyor belt 11, and then the shoe tongue 3 is placed into the positioning groove 21 for positioning. Then, the positioning template 2 is raised, so that the shoe tongue 3 moves with the first conveyor belt 11 and is conveyed to the labeling station for a pause.

[0027] As shown in Figure 3, the cutting mechanism 5 includes a cutting plate 51 and a blade holder 53. The cutting plate 51 is positioned above the second conveyor belt 12 and moves up and down. Specifically, the cutting plate 51 is driven by a cutting cylinder 54 mounted on the machine base 1. The cutting plate 51 has a notch 52, and a rectangular blade holder 53 is provided on the bottom surface of the notch 52. The blade holder 53 moves up and down to cut the label 4 to form the shoe tongue label 41.

[0028] As shown in Figures 1 and 4, the transfer mechanism 6 includes a transfer plate 62 and pneumatic suction cups 62. The transfer plate 62 is positioned above the transfer plate 62, and it can move up, down, and rotate. Pneumatic suction cups 62 are provided at both ends of the transfer plate 62, and the pneumatic suction cups 62 are set corresponding to the notch 52. After the cutter 53 cuts the label 4 to form the tongue label 41, the pneumatic suction cup 62 descends through the notch 52 to adsorb the tongue label 41. Then, the pneumatic suction cup 62 rises, rotates the transfer plate 62 180°, and then the pneumatic suction cup 62 lowers the tongue label 41 onto the tongue 3 of the label placement station, completing the transfer of the tongue label 41.

[0029] Furthermore, the transfer mechanism 6 also includes a first support 61 and a rotating shaft 64. The first support 61 is located on one side of the second conveyor belt 12. The transfer plate 62 is connected to the first support 61 through the rotating shaft 64, and the rotating shaft 64 is located on the first support 61 and rotates. Specifically, the rotating shaft 64 is driven by a motor located in the first support 61 to complete the 180° rotation of the transfer plate 62.

[0030] As shown in Figures 1 and 5, the heat pressing mechanism 7 includes a heat pressing plate 72 and a heat pressing die 73. The heat pressing plate 72 is positioned above the first conveyor belt 11 and moves up and down, while the heat pressing die 73 is located on the bottom surface of the heat pressing plate 72. After the shoe tongue 3, carrying the shoe tongue label 41, moves to the label pressing station under the action of the first conveyor belt 11 and pauses, the heat pressing die 73 moves up and down to heat the shoe tongue label 41 and the shoe tongue 3. During the process, the heat pressing die 73 is energized and heated, so that the shoe tongue label 41 is melted by high temperature and bonded to the shoe tongue 3 as one piece, thus completing the heat pressing process. In addition, the heat pressing mechanism 7 also includes a second support 71 and a heat pressing cylinder 74. The second support 71 is located on one side of the first conveyor belt 11, and the heat pressing plate 72 is driven by the heat pressing cylinder 74 located on the second support 71 to complete the heat pressing process between the shoe tongue label 41 and the shoe tongue 3.

[0031] Furthermore, the heat pressing mechanism 7 also includes a pressure rod 75. The bottom surface of the heat pressing plate 72 is provided with a U-shaped pressure rod 75, which is set corresponding to the heat pressing die head 73. The pressure rod 75 is used to press the shoe tongue 3 when the heat pressing die head 73 presses the shoe tongue label 41 and the shoe tongue 3, so as to play a good positioning role for the shoe tongue 3, facilitate the heat pressing process, and improve the processing quality.

[0032] Preferably, the pressing mechanism 7 further includes guide rods 76. The pressing plate 72 is provided with several guide rods 76. The guide rods 76 slide through the second support 71. The guide rods 76 can guide the lifting and lowering of the pressing plate 72, so that the pressing plate 72 can be lifted and lowered smoothly, avoiding skewness that affects the pressing and heating of the shoe tongue label 41 and the shoe tongue 3.

[0033] In summary, when using this utility model, the positioning template 2 is brought close to the first conveyor belt 11, and then the shoe tongue 3 is placed into the positioning groove 21 for positioning. Then the positioning template 2 is lifted up, so that the shoe tongue 3 moves with the first conveyor belt 11 to the labeling station and pauses. At the same time, the knife holder 53 cuts the label strip 4 to form the shoe tongue label 41. Then the pneumatic suction cup 62 passes through the notch 52 to pick up the shoe tongue label 41 and transfers the shoe tongue label 41 to the shoe tongue 3 at the labeling station. Finally, after the shoe tongue 3 moves with the shoe tongue label 41 to the pressing station, the pressing die head 73 presses the shoe tongue label 41 and the shoe tongue 3 together. This utility model uses a first conveyor belt 11 to transport the shoe tongue 3 and a second conveyor belt 12 to transport the label 4, realizing parallel material processing. The positioning template 2 ensures the accurate position of the shoe tongue 3. At the same time, the cutting mechanism 5 simultaneously cuts the label 4 to form the shoe tongue label 41. Then, the pneumatic suction cup 62 is used to pick up the shoe tongue label 41 and rotate it 180° to accurately place it on the shoe tongue 3. The cutting and placement of the shoe tongue label 41 are completed automatically by the machine, which improves the processing efficiency and processing accuracy, and can greatly reduce the labor intensity.

[0034] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the design concept of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any non-substantial modifications made to this utility model using this concept shall be considered as an infringement of the protection scope of this utility model.
