Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of labeling machine technology, specifically to an automatic labeling machine for use in production stations. Background Technology

[0002] An automatic labeling machine is a device that affixes rolls of paper or metal foil labels to specified packaging containers or products. It works by using adhesive to attach the paper or metal foil labels to the packaging container, and can perform various operations such as flat labeling, single-sided or multi-sided labeling, cylindrical labeling, partial or full coverage, cylindrical labeling, and labeling on recessed or corner areas.

[0003] With the continuous advancement of automation technology, automatic labeling machines have emerged and solved the problem of manual labeling to a certain extent. However, existing automatic labeling machines generally lack an effective pre-treatment mechanism for object surfaces. Before labeling, dust, debris, and other impurities often adhere to the object surface. These impurities can seriously affect the adhesion between the label and the object surface, leading to problems such as weak label adhesion, air bubbles, or wrinkles. Furthermore, the dust after cleaning is not easy to collect in a timely manner and can easily fall back onto the equipment. Additionally, there may be positional deviations of the object on the conveyor belt. If the object cannot be accurately positioned at the center of the conveyor belt, the labeling machine body cannot accurately attach the label to the designated position on the object, resulting in a decrease in labeling accuracy. Therefore, this utility model provides an automatic labeling machine based on a production station. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an automatic labeling machine for production workstations. It solves the problems of dust, debris, and other impurities often adhering to the surface of objects before labeling. These impurities severely affect the adhesion between the label and the object's surface, leading to problems such as weak label adhesion, air bubbles, or wrinkles. Furthermore, the dust after cleaning is difficult to collect promptly and easily falls back onto the equipment. Additionally, the objects may have positional deviations on the conveyor belt; if the object cannot be accurately positioned at the center of the conveyor belt, the labeling machine cannot accurately attach the label to the designated location, resulting in decreased labeling accuracy.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic labeling machine for a production station, comprising a mounting bracket, a conveyor belt for object input provided on the inner side of the mounting bracket, and a labeling mechanism for processing at the production station provided on the mounting bracket, the labeling mechanism comprising:

[0006] The cleaning assembly includes a side wall support frame for mounting brackets, a U-shaped bracket connected to the inside of the support frame via a lifting assembly, a brush shaft rotatably connected inside the U-shaped bracket, and a dust collection assembly for dust cleaning on one side of the support frame.

[0007] The centering assembly includes a guide housing fixed to the upper surface of a mounting bracket, a connecting shaft at one end of the guide housing, and a centering plate rotatably connected to the outer wall of the connecting shaft.

[0008] Preferably, the lifting assembly includes a first electric push rod that is fixedly fixed inside the support frame, and the U-shaped bracket is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the first electric push rod.

[0009] Preferably, the vacuuming assembly includes a pair of collection housings fixed to the upper surface of the support frame, a vacuum pump is provided at the upper end of the collection housing, and a vacuuming housing is provided on one side of the collection housing.

[0010] Preferably, a fixing plate is fixed to one side of the guide housing, and a second electric push rod is provided on the inner wall of the fixing plate via a rotating shaft. The telescopic end of the second electric push rod is rotatably connected to the centering plate via the rotating shaft.

[0011] Preferably, the inner wall of the centering plate is provided with uniformly distributed rollers, and the guide shell has an open structure.

[0012] Preferably, a support base is provided on one side of the mounting bracket, and three sets of first sliding rods are fixed on the upper end surface of the support base. The outer wall of the first sliding rod is slidably connected to the mounting base, and three sets of second sliding rods are horizontally fixed on the side wall of the mounting base. The labeling machine body is slidably mounted on the outer wall of the second sliding rod.

[0013] Beneficial effects

[0014] This invention provides an automatic labeling machine for use in production stations. Compared with existing technologies, it has the following advantages:

[0015] Firstly, when an object moves to the bottom of the cleaning component, the first electric push rod, which is fixed inside the support frame, is activated. Its telescopic end drives the U-shaped bracket to descend, causing the brush shaft inside the U-shaped bracket to contact the surface of the object. The brush shaft and the dust collection component clean the surface of the object, effectively removing dust and other impurities. This avoids problems such as labels not sticking firmly, bubbles, or wrinkles caused by impurities, greatly improving the quality and aesthetics of labeling. At the same time, a pair of dust pumps on the collection shells fixed to the upper end of the support frame are activated, sucking the swept dust into the collection shells to complete the cleaning of the object's surface. This prevents dust from falling back onto the equipment, further improving cleaning efficiency.

[0016] Secondly, when the object moves to the guide housing position, the second electric push rod, which is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed plate via the rotating shaft, is activated. Its telescopic end pushes the centering plate to rotate around the connecting shaft, and the centering plates on both sides rotate towards the center at the same time to center the object, so that the object is located in the center position of the conveyor belt. The rollers evenly distributed on the inner wall of the centering plate can reduce the friction between the object and the centering plate, ensuring the smoothness of the object during the conveying process. This ensures that the labeling machine body can accurately affix the label to the designated position of the object, improving the labeling accuracy and consistency. In addition, the rollers set on the inner wall of the centering plate can reduce the friction between the object and the centering plate, avoiding damage to the surface of the object during the object centering process.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic labeling machine for production stations, including a mounting bracket 1, a conveyor belt 2 for object input provided on the inner side of the mounting bracket 1, and a labeling mechanism for processing at the production station provided on the mounting bracket 1. The labeling mechanism includes:

[0024] The cleaning component includes a side wall support frame 3 for mounting bracket 1, a U-shaped bracket 302 connected by a lifting component inside the support frame 3, a brush shaft 303 rotatably connected inside the U-shaped bracket 302, and a dust collection component for dust cleaning on one side of the support frame 3.

[0025] The object to be labeled is placed on the conveyor belt 2 inside the mounting bracket 1. The conveyor belt 2 is started, carrying the object to the labeling station.

[0026] The centering component includes a guide housing 5 fixed to the upper surface of the mounting bracket 1. One end of the guide housing 5 is provided with a connecting shaft 501, and the outer wall of the connecting shaft 501 is rotatably connected to a centering plate 502.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, the lifting assembly includes a first electric push rod 301 fixedly through the support frame 3, and a U-shaped bracket 302 fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the first electric push rod 301. The vacuuming assembly includes a pair of collection housings 4 fixed to the upper surface of the support frame 3. A vacuum pump 401 is provided at the upper end of the collection housing 4, and a vacuum housing 402 is provided on one side of the collection housing 4. When an object moves to the bottom of the cleaning assembly, the first electric push rod 301 fixedly through the support frame 3 is activated, and its telescopic end drives the U-shaped bracket 302 to descend, causing the U-shaped bracket 302 to move downwards. The brush shaft 303 of the device contacts the surface of the object, and the surface of the object is cleaned by the brush shaft 303 and the dust collection component. This effectively removes dust and other impurities from the surface of the object, avoiding problems such as labels not sticking firmly, bubbles or wrinkles caused by impurities. This greatly improves the quality and aesthetics of labeling. At the same time, the dust pumps 401 on the pair of collection shells 4 fixed on the upper end of the support frame 3 are activated. The dust swept up by the dust collection shell 402 is sucked into the collection shell 4, completing the cleaning of the object surface and preventing dust from falling back onto the equipment, further improving cleaning efficiency.

[0028] The brush shaft 303 is driven by a micro motor on the side wall of the U-shaped bracket 302.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, a fixing plate 504 is fixed to one side of the guide housing 5. A second electric push rod 505, rotatably connected via a rotating shaft, is disposed on the inner wall of the fixing plate 504. The telescopic end of the second electric push rod 505 is rotatably connected to the centering plate 502 via the rotating shaft. The inner wall of the centering plate 502 is provided with evenly distributed rollers 503. The guide housing 5 has an open structure. When an object moves to the position of the guide housing 5, the second electric push rod 505, rotatably connected via the rotating shaft to the inner wall of the fixing plate 504, is activated. Its telescopic end pushes the centering plate 502 to rotate around the connecting shaft 501, and the rollers on both sides... The center plate 502 rotates towards the center to center the object, placing it at the center of the conveyor belt 2. The rollers 503 evenly distributed on the inner wall of the center plate 502 reduce the friction between the object and the center plate 502, ensuring smooth transport of the object and ensuring it is at the center of the conveyor belt. This ensures that the labeling machine body 604 can accurately affix the label to the designated position on the object, improving the labeling accuracy and consistency. The rollers 503 on the inner wall of the center plate also reduce the friction between the object and the center plate, preventing damage to the object surface during centering.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, a support base 6 is provided on one side of the mounting bracket 1. Three sets of first sliding rods 601 are fixed to the upper end face of the support base 6. A mounting seat 602 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the first sliding rods 601. Three sets of second sliding rods 603 are horizontally fixed to the side wall of the mounting seat 602. The labeling machine body 604 is slidably mounted on the outer wall of the second sliding rods 603. The support base 6 is provided with a screw threadedly connected to the mounting seat 602, and the side wall of the mounting seat 602 is provided with a screw threadedly connected to the labeling machine body 604. This is used to adjust the labeling machine vertically and horizontally via the sliding rods. According to the height of the object and the labeling position requirements, rotating the screw threadedly connected to the mounting seat 602 on the support base 601 will adjust the labeling machine body. The screw is slidably connected to three sets of first slide rods 601. The rotation of the screw drives the mounting base 602 to slide vertically along the first slide rods 601, thereby adjusting the vertical height of the labeling machine body 604. Then, the screw threaded to the side wall of the mounting base 602 and the labeling machine body 604 is rotated. Since the labeling machine body 604 is slidably connected to three sets of second slide rods 603, the rotation of the screw drives the labeling machine body 604 to slide horizontally along the second slide rods 603, precisely adjusting the horizontal position of the labeling machine body 604. Through the cooperation of the screw and slide rods, the labeling machine body 604 can be precisely adjusted in both the vertical and horizontal directions, adapting to the labeling needs of objects of different heights and sizes, and improving the versatility and adaptability of the equipment.

[0031] When the object reaches the labeling position, the labeling machine body 604 starts and accurately affixes the label to the surface of the object. After the labeling is completed, the conveyor belt 2 continues to run, transporting the labeled object out of the labeling station.

[0032] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0033] During operation, the object to be labeled is placed on the conveyor belt 2 inside the mounting bracket 1. The conveyor belt 2 starts and moves the object towards the labeling station. When the object moves to the bottom of the cleaning component, the first electric push rod 301 starts, and its telescopic end drives the U-shaped bracket 302 to descend, so that the brush shaft 303 contacts the surface of the object. At the same time, the micro motor drives the brush shaft 303. The rotating mechanism, in conjunction with the dust pump 401, draws dust into the collection housing 4 through the dust collection housing 402, completing the surface cleaning of the object. Subsequently, the object moves to the guide housing 5, and the second electric push rod 505 activates, pushing the centering plate 502 to rotate around the connecting shaft 501. Using the roller shaft 503 to reduce friction, the object is centered on the conveyor belt 2. Next, based on the object's height and labeling position requirements, the screws on the support base 6 and mounting base 602 are rotated, causing the mounting base 602 and the labeling machine body 604 to slide vertically and horizontally along the first slide rod 601 and the second slide rod 603 respectively, precisely adjusting the position of the labeling machine body 604. Finally, when the object reaches the labeling position, the labeling machine body 604 activates to complete the label application, and the conveyor belt 2 continues to transport the labeled object out of the labeling station.
