Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of product label technology, specifically to a fixture for detecting the position of bottle labels. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, all bottled products undergo a labeling process before leaving the factory, which is handled by labeling machines. Generally, the labeling machines apply labels to each bottled product with consistent standards. Even if a few labels are slightly offset during application, it is considered acceptable if the offset is within a reasonable range. However, determining whether the label offset is reasonable requires manual measurement using measuring tools. Due to differences in measurement experience and inherent errors in the measurement process, the criteria for judging whether the offset is reasonable may vary, potentially leading to defective products entering the market.
[0003] A search revealed that patent document CN220616505U discloses a label misalignment detection fixture. The fixture includes a base, a first blocking member, a second blocking member, a front blocking plate, and a rear blocking plate. The first blocking member is installed on the upper left side of the base, the second blocking member is installed on the upper right side of the base, the front blocking plate is installed at the upper front end of the base, and the rear blocking plate is installed at the upper rear end of the base. The first blocking member, the second blocking member, the front blocking plate, and the rear blocking plate form a receiving cavity. Arc-shaped portions are provided on the right side of the first blocking member and the left side of the second blocking member, and clearance portions are provided on the front blocking plate and the rear blocking plate.
[0004] When using the aforementioned fixture, the bottle is first fixed into the receiving cavity, and then the front and rear ends of the bottle are labeled using the clearance part. As can be seen from the above, although the fixture is called a testing fixture, it only limits the position of the bottle to meet the subsequent accurate labeling requirements, rather than detecting the offset of the labeled label. In other words, this fixture cannot determine whether the degree of label offset on the bottle is acceptable.
[0005] To address this issue, we propose a fixture for detecting the position of bottle labels. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the prior art by proposing a fixture for detecting the position of a bottle label. The fixture is designed with a main body for accommodating and limiting the bottle and a detection window for exposing a designated part of the bottle. Workers can make a determination by observing whether the label at the designated part of the bottle is fully exposed within the detection window.
[0007] To solve the above problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0008] A fixture for detecting the position of a bottle label includes:
[0009] The main body of the fixture has a cavity that fits the shape of the bottle.
[0010] A detection window is located on the main body of the fixture to expose a designated part of the bottle.
[0011] The center marker, located on the main body of the fixture and arranged along the vertical axis of symmetry of the inspection window, provides a central reference for positioning the bottle body placed in the cavity.
[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the central identifier is provided as two sets of strip holes, the two strip holes are arranged in a straight line at the top and bottom of the detection window respectively, and both strip holes are connected to the detection window.
[0013] As a further embodiment of this invention, the length of the strip hole at the bottom of the detection window is greater than the length of the strip hole at the top of the detection window.
[0014] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the central identifier is set as two sets of pointing arrows, the two pointing arrows are arranged in a straight line at the top and bottom of the detection window respectively, and the two pointing arrows are arranged in opposite directions.
[0015] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the detection window is formed by an upper arc-shaped part and a lower U-shaped part, and both vertical sides of the U-shaped part have a wide-angle diffusion design.
[0016] As a further embodiment of this utility model: both vertical sides of the U-shaped portion are recessed with a first groove for placing a soft ruler.
[0017] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the lateral bottom edge of the U-shaped part is recessed with a second groove for placing a soft ruler.
[0018] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the fixture also includes a bottle holder located at the bottom of the fixture body, with the depth direction of the bottle holder arranged along the length direction of the fixture body.
[0019] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the bottom of the bottle holder is provided with an annular groove for adapting to the shape of the bottle bottom.
[0020] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the bottom of the bottle holder is provided with a number of vent holes, and the vent holes are located inside the annular groove.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0022] 1. Through the settings of the fixture body, the detection window, and the central mark, the fixture body has a cavity adapted to the shape of the bottle body. By means of the cavity adapted to the shape of the bottle body, it is ensured that the bottle body is fixed without deviation, eliminating the shaking error during detection. The detection window is used to expose a specified part of the bottle body, and this specified part corresponds to the position of the label to be detected. When all the marks on the label are within the detection window, it indicates that the label position is qualified and the bottle body is a good product. This kind of detection method improves the detection efficiency. The central mark provides a central reference for positioning. The central mark provides a visual positioning reference along the symmetry axis, ensuring the standardization of the label position detection.
[0023] 2. By clearly setting the central mark as two groups of strip holes, and defining the linear layout of the strip holes at the top and bottom of the detection window and the feature of being connected to the detection window, this design helps to more accurately locate the position of the bottle body label through the strip holes during detection.
[0024] 3. Further distinguish the lengths of the two groups of strip holes, indicating that the length of the bottom strip hole is greater than the length of the top strip hole. This detailed description helps to more accurately determine the design specifications of the central mark, enabling the fixture to perform more accurate central positioning when detecting the label position of the bottle body. And the longer strip hole can also be used as an observation hole. Through the observation hole, the staff can observe the patterns, textures, etc. on the label.
[0025] 4. By proposing another design form of the central mark, that is, setting it as two groups of pointing arrows, and defining the layout method and pointing relationship of the pointing arrows, it provides more choices for the design of the central mark of the fixture, increasing the flexibility and diversity of the design to meet different detection requirements and scenarios.
[0026] 5. The detection window is surrounded by an arc-shaped part above and a U-shaped part below, and the two vertical sides of the U-shaped part are designed with a wide-angle diffusion. This unique shape design can better adapt to bottle bodies of different shapes and sizes, expand the viewing range of the detection window, and improve the accuracy and universality of detection.
[0027] 6. The two vertical sides of the U-shaped part are recessed with first slot holes for placing a flexible ruler. This design provides a convenient placement position for using the flexible ruler during the detection process, making the detection operation more standardized and orderly, and helping to improve the detection efficiency and accuracy.
[0028] 7. The horizontal bottom edge of the U-shaped part is recessed with second slot holes for placing a flexible ruler, further enriching the placement options of the flexible ruler and enabling more flexible placement of the flexible ruler according to different detection requirements and the shape of the bottle body, reflecting the comprehensiveness and practicality of the design.
[0029] 8. By setting a bottle holder at the bottom of the fixture body, and arranging the depth of the bottle holder along the length of the fixture body, the design of the bottle holder can better fix the bottle body, prevent the bottle body from shaking or shifting during the testing process, and ensure the stability and accuracy of the testing.
[0030] 9. The bottom of the bottle holder is equipped with an annular groove to fit the shape of the bottle bottom. This design allows for a tighter fit to the bottle bottom, further enhancing the fixation effect on the bottle body, ensuring that the bottle body is in a stable state during testing, and improving the reliability of the test results.
[0031] 10. Several vent holes are provided at the bottom of the bottle holder, and the vent holes are located inside the annular groove. The design of the vent holes can expel the air between the bottle holder and the bottom of the bottle when the bottle is placed, so as to avoid the bottle being unstable due to residual air. At the same time, it also helps the bottle fit better with the annular groove and improves the firmness of the fixation. Attached Figure Description

[0038] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0039] like Figures 1-4As shown, a fixture for detecting the position of a bottle label includes a fixture body 1. The fixture body 1 has a cavity 101 adapted to the overall shape of the bottle. The depth of the cavity 101 is not limited, as long as it serves to accommodate and limit the bottle. A detection window 2 is provided on the fixture body 1. When the bottle is placed on the cavity 101 according to the fitting relationship, a certain position of the bottle will be exposed for observation by the operator due to the presence of the detection window 2. Preferably, the position of the detection window 2 on the fixture body 1 is used to expose the label on the bottle so that the operator can observe whether the label is in the designated position on the bottle.
[0040] The detection window 2 is formed by an upper arc-shaped part 201 and a lower U-shaped part 202. At the same time, the two vertical sides of the U-shaped part 202 are designed with a wide-angle diffusion to maximize the viewing angle without obstruction.
[0041] To determine whether the label is accurately affixed to the bottle, this application preferably uses the markings on the label as a reference. When the markings on the label are fully exposed within the detection window 2, even if they are not in the center of the detection window 2, the product is considered good. When the markings on the label are partially or completely not exposed within the detection window 2, the product is considered defective.
[0042] In order to ensure accurate alignment of the bottle body within the cavity 101, this application provides a center mark 3 on the fixture body 1. The center mark 3 is arranged along the vertical axis of symmetry of the detection window 2. The presence of the center mark 3 allows for accurate positioning of the bottle body during placement within the cavity 101, ensuring that the bottle body remains in the center relative to the center mark 3, thus maintaining consistency in each subsequent inspection.
[0043] Regarding the design of the central logo 3, this application has the following two cases:
[0044] (1) such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the central identifier 3 is configured as two sets of strip-shaped holes. These two holes are arranged in a straight line at the top and bottom of the detection window 2, respectively, and both holes are connected to the detection window 2. The linearity of these strip-shaped holes provides a reference for bottle centering. Furthermore, the length of the strip-shaped hole at the bottom of the detection window 2 is greater than the length of the strip-shaped hole at the top. This design allows the strip-shaped hole at the bottom of the detection window 2 to be as long as possible, enabling it to also be used as an observation hole. This observation hole allows staff to better observe the patterns, colors, etc., on the label.
[0045] (2) The central marker 3 is set as two sets of directional arrows, which are arranged in a straight line at the top and bottom of the detection window 2, respectively, and the two arrows point in opposite directions. That is, the arrow at the top of the detection window 2 points downward, and the arrow at the bottom of the detection window 2 points upward. The presence of these two sets of directional arrows can also provide a centering reference for the placement of the bottle in the cavity 101. It should be noted that the directional arrows can be formed by any method such as etching, relief, or imprinting.
[0046] Based on the above-mentioned configuration of the detection window 2 as consisting of an arc-shaped portion 201 and a U-shaped portion 202, even if the mark on the label is off-center, it is still within the detection window 2 and can be fully observed. In this case, in order for the staff to know the amount of mark deviation, this application has the following design:
[0047] (1) In order to know the vertical offset of the mark on the label, a first groove 4 is provided on both vertical sides of the U-shaped part 202, and a soft ruler can be placed vertically on both sets of first grooves 4.
[0048] (2) In order to know the lateral offset of the mark on the label, a second groove 5 is recessed on the lateral bottom edge of the U-shaped part 202, and a soft ruler can be placed laterally on the second groove 5.
[0049] (3) In order to know the vertical and horizontal offset of the mark on the label at the same time, a first slot 4 is provided on both vertical sides of the U-shaped part 202. At the same time, a second slot 5 is also provided on the horizontal bottom edge of the U-shaped part 202. A soft ruler can be placed in both the first slot 4 and the second slot 5 to measure the horizontal and vertical position of the mark.
[0050] like Figures 1-2 As shown, furthermore, in order to ensure the stability of the bottle body after it is placed in the cavity 101, this application provides a bottle support 6 at the bottom of the fixture body 1. The depth direction of the bottle support 6 is arranged along the length direction of the fixture body 1, and the bottle support 6 can be used to support and hold the bottle body in the cavity 101. The bottle support 6 can be additionally added to the bottom of the fixture body 1, or it can be integrally formed with the fixture body 1.
[0051] like Figures 3-4 As shown, to accommodate the shape of the bottle bottom, an annular groove 7 is provided at the bottom of the bottle holder 6. The annular groove 7 is used to limit the bottom of the bottle. Several vent holes 8 are provided at the bottom of the bottle holder 6, and the vent holes 8 are located inside the annular groove 7. During the process of placing the bottle on the bottle holder 6, the air between the bottom of the bottle and the annular groove 7 can be discharged by relying on these vent holes 8.
[0052] The above description provides a detailed account of one embodiment of the present invention. However, this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. All equivalent variations and improvements made within the scope of the claims of the present invention should still fall within the patent coverage of the present invention.
