Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of garment processing equipment, and relates to a fabric labeling machine, especially an automatic fabric labeling machine for garments. Background Technology

[0002] In garment manufacturing, each cut fabric piece needs to be labeled (also known as "labeling" or "numbering") to ensure that all pieces of the same garment can be accurately sewn together in subsequent production. Most existing labeling machines are handheld, requiring workers to hold the machine in one hand and use the other to flip the fabric pieces and apply the labels. This is extremely labor-intensive, and the workers' movements of flipping the fabric and pressing down to apply the labels are slow, resulting in significant errors in label placement and poor accuracy.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a device that can automatically flip and label fabric pieces, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of labeling fabric pieces and thus helping to improve the efficiency of garment production. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic labeling machine for garment fabric pieces, so as to solve the technical problems of low labeling efficiency and poor accuracy in the existing technology.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the specific technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] An automatic labeling machine for garment fabric pieces includes a support frame, a control box, a label picking mechanism, a label printer, and a fabric picking mechanism mounted on the support frame and electrically connected to the control box. The fabric picking mechanism is located on one side of the label picking mechanism, and the label printer is located on the other side of the label picking mechanism.

[0007] The label-taking mechanism includes a rotating label-taking part, a horizontal cylinder, and a vertical cylinder. The horizontal cylinder is horizontally arranged and fixed to the bracket; the vertical cylinder is vertically arranged and fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the horizontal cylinder through a connecting seat.

[0008] The rotating label-taking unit includes a top plate, a rotating unit, and a suction cup. The top plate is fixed to the side of the cylinder body of the longitudinal cylinder. The lower end of the top plate extends out of the longitudinal cylinder and is located below the shortest extension of the longitudinal cylinder. The rotating unit is located at the telescopic end of the longitudinal cylinder. The suction cup is fixed on the rotating unit and has the freedom to swing around the axis of the rotating unit toward the label printer side under the drive of the longitudinal cylinder and the top plate.

[0009] The rotating unit includes a steering pulley, a rotating mounting base, a suction cup mounting base, a suction cup connecting rod, and a suction cup. The steering pulley is mounted on the lower end of the top plate via a mounting block and has the freedom to rotate around its own axis.

[0010] The rotating mounting base is fixed to the lower end of the longitudinal cylinder extension end, and the suction cup mounting base is set on the rotating mounting base through the mounting shaft, having the freedom to swing around its own axis in the vertical plane toward the label printer side.

[0011] The suction cup is connected to an external negative pressure suction tube and is fixedly connected to the suction cup mounting base via a suction cup connecting rod, and has the degree of freedom to swing from vertical to perpendicular to the angle where the label printer dispenses the label.

[0012] The rotating unit also includes two torsion springs, which are mounted on both sides of the rotating mounting base via a bushing. The rotating mounting base has a slot located above the bushing. One end of the torsion spring is engaged in the slot, and the other end is fixed to the suction cup mounting base.

[0013] When the horizontal cylinder retracts to its position, the suction cup contacts the label printer; when the vertical cylinder extends to its position, the bottom surface of the suction cup is at the same height as the fabric.

[0014] The fabric feeding mechanism includes a motor, a lead screw slide, a lead screw connecting plate, and a clamping part. The lead screw slide is vertically arranged, and the motor is located on the top of the lead screw slide and is connected to the lead screw slide in a driving connection. One end of the lead screw connecting plate is connected to the lead screw slide in a driving connection, and the other end extends to the bottom of the lead screw slide. The clamping part is located on the lead screw connecting plate, and the lowest clamping opening height of the clamping part corresponds to the labeling height of the longitudinal cylinder.

[0015] The clamping part includes a fabric-spinning unit and a gripping unit. The fabric-spinning unit is disposed on the lead screw connecting plate, and the gripping unit is disposed on the action output end of the fabric-spinning unit.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model provides an automatic labeling machine for garment fabric pieces. It features a label-taking mechanism with a label printer and a fabric picking mechanism on either side. The label-taking mechanism moves upwards until it swings to an angle perpendicular to the label printer's output. Then, a horizontal cylinder moves to drive a suction cup to pick up the label. After the horizontal cylinder resets, a vertical cylinder drives the suction cup downwards. The suction cup, under the weight of the rotating unit and the action of a torsion spring, resets to a vertical position and continues downwards until it contacts the fabric piece for labeling. After labeling, the vertical cylinder drives the suction cup to reset, and the fabric picking mechanism controls the clamping part to move downwards to contact the fabric piece. The gripping unit picks up the fabric piece, and while the fabric-swinging unit swings the fabric piece, the gripping unit releases the fabric piece, and the labeled fabric piece is thrown out and flipped. The swinging unit resets, and simultaneously, the screw slide drives the clamping part to reset, allowing for the next labeling and fabric flipping operation.

[0017] The technical solution provided by this utility model can efficiently and stably label fabric pieces, with fast labeling speed, high efficiency, and good precision control, making it suitable for widespread application in the labeling of garment fabric pieces. Attached Figure Description

The fabric piece picking mechanism is positioned on one side of the label-picking mechanism 2, and the label printer 3 is positioned on the other side, facilitating the label-picking mechanism 2 to swing and pick up the labels 4, and also facilitating the fabric piece flipping process using the fabric piece picking mechanism after the label-picking mechanism 2 has finished labeling.

[0031] The label-taking mechanism 2 includes a rotating label-taking part, a horizontal cylinder 5, and a vertical cylinder 6, such as Figure 3 As shown, the transverse cylinder 5 is horizontally arranged and fixed to the bracket 1; the longitudinal cylinder 6 is vertically arranged and fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the transverse cylinder 5 through the connecting seat 7. The longitudinal cylinder 6 has the freedom to move left and right relative to the bracket 1 under the drive of the transverse cylinder 5.

[0032] The rotating target-taking unit includes a top plate 8, a rotating unit 9, and a suction cup 10, wherein, for example... Figure 3 As shown, the top plate 8 is fixed on the side of the cylinder body of the longitudinal cylinder 6, located on the side of the longitudinal cylinder 6 away from the label printer 3. The lower end of the top plate 8 extends out of the longitudinal cylinder 6 and is located below the shortest extension of the longitudinal cylinder 6. It is used to contact the rotating unit 9 and drive the rotating unit 9 to swing towards the label printer 3. The rotating unit 9 is located at the telescopic end of the longitudinal cylinder 6. The suction cup 10 is fixed on the rotating unit 9 and has the freedom to swing towards the label printer 3 around the vertical plane where the axis of the rotating unit 9 is located, driven by the longitudinal cylinder 6 and the top plate 8.

[0033] In this embodiment, the rotating unit 9 includes a steering pulley 11, a rotating mounting base 12, a suction cup mounting base 13, a suction cup connecting rod 14, and a suction cup 10. Figure 4As shown, the steering pulley 11 is mounted on the lower end of the top plate 8 via the mounting block 15, and is used to contact the suction cup mounting seat 13 and press the suction cup mounting seat 13 to swing, having the freedom to rotate freely around its own axis. The rotating mounting seat 12 is fixed to the lower end of the telescopic end of the longitudinal cylinder 6, and the suction cup mounting seat 13 is mounted on the rotating mounting seat 12 via the mounting shaft, having the freedom to swing around its own axis in a vertical plane toward the label printer 3. In this embodiment, in order to make the top surface of the rotating mounting seat 12 swing after contacting the steering pulley 11, a plane with a 90° angle between the top surface and the side surface of the rotating mounting seat 12 is provided. In order for the suction cup 10 to pick up the label 4, the suction cup 10 is connected to an external negative pressure suction tube and fixedly connected to the suction cup mounting seat 13 via the suction cup connecting rod 14, having the freedom to swing from vertical to perpendicular to the angle of the label 4 of the label printer 3.

[0034] In addition, to improve the automatic reset of the rotating mounting base 12 to the vertical state of the suction cup connecting rod 14, the rotating unit 9 in this embodiment also includes torsion springs 16. There are two torsion springs 16, which are set on both sides of the rotating mounting base 12 through the bushing 17. The rotating mounting base 12 is provided with a slot 25, which is located above the bushing 17. One end of the torsion arm of the torsion spring 16 is engaged in the slot 25, and the other end of the torsion arm is engaged and fixed on the suction cup mounting base 13.

[0035] In addition, in order to ensure that the suction cup 10 can smoothly pick up the label 4, in this embodiment, when the horizontal cylinder 5 retracts to the position, the suction cup 10 contacts the label 4 of the label printer 3; when the vertical cylinder 6 extends to the position, the bottom surface of the suction cup 10 is at the same height as the fabric 27.

[0036] In this embodiment, in order to ensure the labeling quality of the suction cup 10, a pressure sensor that is communicatively connected to the PLC controller is provided on the suction cup mounting base 13. The sensing end of the pressure sensor is in contact with the bottom surface of the suction cup connecting rod 14. The pressure sensor detects the pressure generated between the suction cup connecting rod 14 and the sensor in real time, and transmits the pressure data to the PLC controller in real time so that it can determine whether to control the longitudinal cylinder 6 to continue pressing down to complete the labeling or to lift it up to reset.

[0037] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the fabric feeding mechanism in this embodiment includes a motor 18, a lead screw slide 19, a lead screw connecting plate 20, and a clamping part 21. The lead screw slide 19 is vertically arranged, and the motor 18 is located at the top of the lead screw slide 19 and is drivenly connected to the lead screw slide 19. One end of the lead screw connecting plate 20 is drivenly connected to the lead screw slide 19, and the other end extends to the bottom of the lead screw slide 19. In order to achieve automatic compensation of the height difference after the fabric is flipped, the motor 18 in this embodiment is selected as a servo motor 18. The PLC controller controls the servo motor 18 to drive the lead screw connecting plate 20 downward by an amount equal to the thickness of the fabric each time, and the height compensation of the servo motor 18 is set.
