Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of auxiliary equipment technology for fishing tackle production, and in particular to a positioning tool for labeling. Background Technology
[0002] As we all know, fishing rods have some beautifully designed labels. These labels are not only embellishments to the product's appearance, but also core carriers of brand, function, and safety information. Their design contains multiple strategic implications.
[0003] To achieve a uniform labeling standard, long strip labels are generally applied along the axial direction of the rod. If there are more than two labels, the auxiliary label is usually required to be located on the front or back of the main label, or evenly distributed along the circumference of the rod. Currently, the labeling of fishing rods before they leave the factory is mainly done manually. It relies on the experience of workers to rotate the rod and align it visually to judge whether the rod is in the correct position. Due to factors such as fatigue and visual errors, it is difficult to ensure that the angle of rotation of the rod is the same when rotating it twice. This makes it difficult to ensure the relative position of the two labeling positions, resulting in poor consistency of the labeling position along the axial direction of the rod, affecting the appearance. It has problems such as high work difficulty, poor labeling consistency, and low labeling efficiency, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a labeling positioning fixture that is structurally sound, easy to operate, and can significantly improve work efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a positioning fixture for labeling, so as to solve the problems of low labeling efficiency and poor labeling consistency in the prior art.
[0006] The embodiments of this application can be implemented through the following technical solutions:
[0007] A labeling positioning fixture includes a clamping assembly, which comprises a base, a bearing assembly, a long shaft, a clamping part, and an elastic positioning bolt. The long shaft is arranged along the X-direction, one end of which is fixedly connected to the clamping part, and the other end is fixedly connected to the bearing assembly. The bearing assembly is rotatably connected to the base. The side wall of the bearing assembly has at least two positioning grooves evenly distributed along its circumference. One end of the elastic positioning bolt passes through the inner wall of the base along the Y-direction and elastically engages with the positioning groove, and is limited by being locked in the positioning groove by the elastic positioning bolt.
[0008] The clamping part has a clamping opening that extends in the X direction at one end facing away from the base to clamp the rod body.
[0009] Furthermore, the elastic positioning bolt is a fastener composed of a threaded outer shell, a spring, and a bead. The bead is connected to one end of the threaded outer shell by the spring, and the spring force is used to press the bead into the positioning groove.
[0010] Furthermore, the clamping part includes a clamping bowl mouth and an elastic rubber pad, the elastic rubber pad being connected to the port of the clamping bowl mouth, and the elastic rubber pad having a through hole extending along its axial direction in the middle.
[0011] Furthermore, the base has a circular receiving opening in the middle that extends along the X direction, and a notch at the top. The notch extends along the X direction and is connected to the receiving opening along the Z direction. One end of the elastic positioning bolt passes through the inner wall of the base along the Y direction and protrudes radially along the receiving opening.
[0012] Furthermore, along the X-axis direction, both sides of the base are provided with axial limiting connection holes coaxially arranged with the receiving opening. Each side of the base is provided with at least two axial limiting connection holes. The at least two axial limiting connection holes on the same side are distributed circumferentially along the receiving opening, and each axial limiting connection hole is connected to an axial limiting component. One end of the axial limiting component is connected to the axial limiting connection hole, and the other end abuts against the end face of the bearing assembly that is connected to the base.
[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a support mechanism. The clamping assembly and the support mechanism are slidably connected to the guide rail along the same X-axis guide rail groove and the connection position is locked by positioning bolts. The support port of the support mechanism and the clamping port of the clamping assembly are coaxially arranged in the X-axis direction.
[0014] Furthermore, the support mechanism includes a support base, a first support part, and a second support part. The bottom end of the support base is connected to the guide rail and the connection position is fixed by a positioning bolt. The top end of the support base is provided with an opening. The first support part and the second support part are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top opening of the support base.
[0015] Furthermore, both the first support portion and the second support portion are circular ball bearings, and the centers of both the first support portion and the second support portion are fixedly connected to the support base by bolts.
[0016] Furthermore, it also includes a centerline alignment projector, which is mounted on the outer ring of the clamping assembly.
[0017] Furthermore, the infrared laser beam emitted by the device is positioned towards the central axis of the clamping opening that runs through the clamping assembly in the X direction.
[0018] Furthermore, the number of the centerline alignment projectors is at least two, and the at least two centerline alignment projectors are evenly distributed around the outer ring of the clamping part along the circumference of the clamping part, and the centerline alignment projectors are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the positioning grooves along the X direction.
[0019] The labeling positioning fixture provided in the embodiments of this application has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0020] The clamping component in this application can be adapted to clamp rods of various diameters. Each time the clamping part of the clamping component is rotated, the clamped rod will rotate by the same angle and then be locked, ensuring the consistency of the rotation angle each time. In addition, a center axis alignment projector can be set on the outer ring of the clamping component. The infrared laser line emitted by the center axis alignment projector is set towards the center axis of the clamping port that runs through the clamping component in the X direction. This makes the infrared laser line emitted by the infrared laser line form a visible reference line along the axis of the rod clamped by the clamping part, which is used to provide a reference for the labeling position. It has the advantages of reasonable structure, convenient use, and significant improvement in work efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The present application will now be further described based on preferred embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0031] Furthermore, for ease of understanding, various components on the drawings have been enlarged or reduced, but this is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application.
[0032] Singular forms of words also include plural meanings, and vice versa.
[0033] In the description of the embodiments of this application, it should be noted that if terms such as "upper," "lower," "inner," or "outer" are used to indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product of this application is in use, they are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on this application. In addition, in the description of this application, in order to distinguish different units, the terms "first," "second," etc. are used in this specification, but these are not limited by the manufacturing order, nor should they be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Their names may differ in the detailed description and claims of this application.
[0034] The vocabulary used in this specification is for illustrative purposes and is not intended to limit the scope of this application. It should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection, a direct connection, or an indirect connection via an intermediate medium; or they can refer to the internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meaning of these terms in this application.
[0035] For ease of description, using Figure 1 The extension direction of the middle guide rail S is described as the X-axis direction, the vertical direction as the Z-axis direction, and the other direction perpendicular to the X-axis as the Y-axis direction. Figures 1-3As shown, a labeling positioning fixture includes a clamping assembly 1, a center axis alignment projector 2, and a support mechanism 3. The center axis alignment projector 2 is installed on the outer ring of the clamping assembly 1, and the infrared laser line emitted by it is set towards the center axis of the clamping opening that runs through the clamping assembly 1 in the X direction, so that the infrared laser line emitted by the infrared laser line forms a visible reference line along the axis of the rod held by the clamping assembly 1. The support mechanism 3 is used to place and fix the rod. In order to prevent the rod from being too long, when the clamping part 14 clamps one end of the rod, the other end will generate a downward torque due to its own weight, causing the rod to bend elastically, thereby changing the direction of the rod axis and affecting the consistency of the labeling position.
[0036] Furthermore, the clamping assembly 1 includes a base 11 and a clamping part 14 rotatably connected to the base 11. At one end of the clamping part 14 that rotatably engages with the base 11, at least two circumferentially distributed positioning grooves 1221 are provided. The positioning grooves 1221 are elastically engaged with elastic positioning bolts 15 provided on the base 11, and the elastic positioning bolts 15 are locked in the positioning grooves 1221 for limiting, so as to achieve precise positioning and stable locking after rotation, and meet the requirements of equal angle rotation adjustment and fixation.
[0037] It should be added that the clamping component 1 in this application is required to achieve equal-angle rotation. The center axis alignment projector 2 and the support mechanism 3 are not required. For example, if the center axis alignment projector 2 is not set, the label can be applied based on the operator's experience after equal-angle rotation, or other alignment auxiliary tools can be used. When the actual length of the pole is short, the pole will not bend downwards, and the support mechanism 3 may not be required.
[0038] The above-mentioned structural components are described below with reference to specific preferred embodiments.
[0039] In some preferred embodiments, the clamping assembly 1 further includes a bearing assembly 12 and a long shaft 13. The long shaft 13 is arranged along the X direction, with one end fixedly connected to the clamping part 14 and the other end fixedly connected to the bearing assembly 12. The bearing assembly 12 is rotatably connected to the base 11. The side wall of the bearing assembly 12 has at least two positioning grooves 1221 evenly distributed along its circumference. One end of the elastic positioning bolt 15 passes through the inner wall of the base 11 along the Y direction and elastically engages with the positioning groove 1221. When the clamping part 14 is rotated, the bearing assembly 12 is driven to rotate within the base 11 via the long shaft 13. When the bearing assembly 12 rotates to the next positioning groove 1221 and engages with the elastic positioning bolt 15, the elastic positioning bolt 15 is locked within the positioning groove 1221, so that the clamping part 14 rotates by the same angle each time it is rotated and then locked, ensuring the consistency of the rotation angle each time.
[0040] In some preferred embodiments, one end of the elastic positioning bolt 15 passes through the inner wall of the base 11 along the Y direction and protrudes radially along the receiving opening 111. The elastic positioning bolt 15 is a fastener composed of a threaded outer shell, a spring, and a bead. The bead is connected to one end of the threaded outer shell by the spring, and the spring force is used to press the bead onto the positioning groove 1221, thereby realizing the positioning or fastening function.
[0041] In some preferred embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the base 11 has a circular opening 111 extending along the X direction in the middle and a notch 112 at the top. The notch 112 extends along the X direction and is connected to the opening 111 along the Z direction. When the bearing assembly 12 is installed in the opening 111, the through structure between the notch 112 and the opening 111 increases the adaptability of the bearing assembly 12 within the opening 111 and enables the installed bearing assembly 12 to generate a certain preload during rotation within the opening 111.
[0042] In some preferred embodiments, to prevent the bearing assembly 12 from undergoing axial displacement within the receiving opening 111 during rotation, the clamping assembly 1 further includes an axial limiting assembly 16. Correspondingly, the base 11 is also provided with an axial limiting connection hole 113 extending in the X direction. One end of the axial limiting assembly 16 is connected to the axial limiting connection hole 113, and the other end abuts against the end face of the bearing assembly 12 that is connected to the base 11, thereby preventing relative displacement between the bearing assembly 12 and the base 11 in the X direction.
[0043] In some preferred embodiments, along the X-axis direction, both sides of the base 11 are provided with axial limiting connection holes 113 coaxially arranged with the receiving opening 111. Each side of the base 11 is provided with at least two axial limiting connection holes 113. The at least two axial limiting connection holes 113 on the same side are distributed circumferentially along the receiving opening 111. Each axial limiting connection hole 113 is connected to an axial limiting component 16. Correspondingly, both end faces of the bearing assembly 12 abut against the axial limiting component 16 to limit the bearing assembly 12 within the receiving opening 111 and prevent axial position displacement.
[0044] In some preferred embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the bearing assembly 12 includes at least one ball bearing 121 and a retaining ring 122. At least two positioning grooves 1221 are arranged circumferentially on the outer surface of the retaining ring 122, and the inner surface of the retaining ring 122 is fixedly connected to the long shaft 13. The long shaft 13 includes a long spindle 131 and a spindle end cap 132. An annular limiting protrusion 1310 is provided in the middle of the long spindle 131. One end of the long spindle 131 is connected to the ball bearing 121 and the retaining ring 122, and is limited between the spindle end cap 132 and the annular limiting protrusion 1310. With the above design, the frictional resistance during rotation can be reduced, and the positioning grooves 1221 on the bearing assembly 12 can be rotated synchronously by the long shaft 13.
[0045] In some preferred embodiments, the other end of the long spindle 131 is detachably fixed to the clamping part 14 by a first locking bolt 17. For example, the ends of the long spindle 131 and the clamping part 14 that are connected to each other are provided with radially through threaded holes. The first locking bolt 17 fixes the long spindle 131 and the clamping part 14 together through the radially through threaded holes, ensuring that the long spindle 131 and the clamping part 14 rotate synchronously when the clamping part 14 is rotated.
[0046] In some preferred embodiments, the clamping part 14 includes a clamping bowl 141 and an elastic pad 142. The elastic pad 142 is connected to the port of the clamping bowl 141, and the elastic pad 142 has a through hole in the middle along its axial direction, which is used to automatically fit and stably adapt to rods of different diameters by means of the elastic deformation characteristics of the elastic pad 142, thus having the dual advantages of anti-slip and self-adaptation.
[0047] In some preferred embodiments, the clamping assembly 1 and the support mechanism 3 are slidably connected to the guide rail S along the same X-axis guide rail groove and the connection position is locked by positioning bolts. The support port of the support mechanism 3 and the clamping port of the clamping assembly 1 are coaxially arranged in the X-axis direction. The clamping port of the clamping assembly 1 is used to clamp the rod body to ensure that the central axis of the support port of the support mechanism 3 and the clamping port of the clamping assembly 1 remains consistent during the movement.
[0048] In some preferred embodiments, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the support mechanism 3 includes a support base 31, a first support part 32, and a second support part 33. The bottom end of the support base 31 is connected to the guide rail S and the connection position is fixed by a positioning bolt. The top end of the support base 31 is provided with an opening, the opening of which gradually decreases from top to bottom. The first support part 32 and the second support part 33 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top opening of the support base 31. The outer rings of the first support part 32 and the second support part 33 together with the opening form a support space adapted to the outer diameter of the rod body to be tested, so as to further realize the support and positioning of the rod body.
[0049] In some alternative embodiments, the number of support mechanisms 3 may be one, two or more, which are coaxially arranged sequentially on the guide rail S to further improve the positioning accuracy and support stability of the rod to be tested.
[0050] In some preferred embodiments, the opening of the support base 31 is V-shaped, and the first support part 32 and the second support part 33 have the same shape, both being circular. The support space formed in this way can better achieve the support stability of the rod body and prevent it from swaying relative to each other. In addition, when the support part is disc-shaped, it is in point contact with the outer wall of the rod body, which can reduce frictional resistance and minimize the interference of support factors on the measurement of the straightness of the rod body.
[0051] In some preferred embodiments, the first support portion 32 and the second support portion 33 are ball bearings. The centers of the first support portion 32 and the second support portion 33 are fixedly connected to the support base 31 by bolts. The rod body is supported on the outer ring of the bearings of the first support portion 32 and the second support portion 33, which is used to significantly reduce frictional resistance during rotation and improve positioning accuracy and support stability.
[0052] In some preferred embodiments, to facilitate operators in quickly locating the labeling position and to ensure consistent labeling along the X-direction of the pole, the positioning fixture further includes a center axis alignment projector 2. The center axis alignment projector 2 is installed on the outer ring of the clamping part 14, with the alignment end facing the center axis of the clamping opening of the clamping part 14. The infrared laser line emitted by the center axis alignment projector 2 forms a visible reference line along the axis of the pole, helping the operator to align accurately.
[0053] In some preferred embodiments, at least two centerline alignment projectors 2 are provided. The at least two centerline alignment projectors 2 are evenly distributed around the outer ring of the clamping part 14 in the circumference of the clamping part 14, and the centerline alignment projectors 2 correspond one-to-one with the positioning grooves 1221 in the X direction, so that when the clamping part 14 is rotated at equal angles, a reference line projected onto the rod body by the centerline alignment projector 2 will be present above the rod body at any positioning position.
[0054] The specific embodiments of this application have been described in detail above. For those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made to this application without departing from the principle of this application, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this application.
