Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an automatic labeling machine for flux-cored wire reels, belonging to the technical field of flux-cored wire processing devices. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, most labeling of welding wire reels is done manually, which can lead to problems such as missed or duplicate labels. If workers need to drink water or eat during the labeling process, the work must be paused, impacting the overall production line efficiency. Furthermore, manual labeling cannot achieve precise position control, affecting product optimization, upgrades, and quality control. Currently, there is no ideal automated labeling device on the market that meets these requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0012] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0013] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.
[0014] Example 1
[0015] The attached figure shows a specific embodiment of this utility model, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown. The automatic labeling machine for flux-cored welding wire spools provided in this embodiment includes a frame 1. A roller conveyor 3 is arranged at the lower part of the frame 1. The roller conveyor 3 includes several units, each of which includes a set of photoelectric sensors. The photoelectric sensors are arranged on the frame above the middle of each unit. A flat plate for fixing the label removal machine 7 is arranged above the roller conveyor 3, referred to as the label removal platform. The distance between the bottom surface of the label removal platform and the highest point of each guide roller of the roller conveyor 3 is slightly greater than the height of the welding wire spool. Limiting baffles are arranged on both sides of the roller conveyor 3. The distance between the limiting baffles is slightly greater than the outer diameter of the welding wire spool to facilitate the smooth passage of the welding wire spool. The label removal machine 7 and the return table 5 are both fixed to the upper surface of the label removal platform by bolts or welding. A vacuum generator 6 is arranged at the front end of the return table. The upper end of the vacuum generator 6 is connected to the power output piston rod of the cylinder 2. Vacuum generator 6 is positioned at the front end of turnaround table 5, adjacent to it. The welding wire reel trademark has a certain width and is self-adhesive. As the trademark passes through turnaround table 5, it gradually detaches from the reel and, due to its self-adhesive action, will not detach from the reel until it is attracted by vacuum generator 6. Labeling machine 7 has a label outlet at the top and a return port at the bottom. The reel trademark is placed inside the housing of labeling machine 7. Turnaround table 5 has a through hole at the top, slightly wider than the overall width of the reel trademark. The reel trademark passes through the through hole from the top of turnaround table 5 and returns to the return port of labeling machine 7. As the sequentially arranged trademarks advance to turnaround table 5, the self-adhesive trademarks detach from the reel and are attracted by vacuum generator 6. Then, under the action of cylinder 2, the trademarks are pressed down and adhered to the welding wire reel. At this time, vacuum generator 6 is de-energized, and the piston rod of cylinder 2 drives vacuum generator 6 to retract and rise, preparing for vacuum attraction of the next trademark.
[0016] A controller is installed on the frame 1 or in the control room. The input of the controller is connected to the laser scanning sensor 4 and the mirror photoelectric sensors in several units of each roller conveyor 3. The output of the controller is connected to the label-removing machine switch, the vacuum generator switch, the air pump switch of cylinder 2, and the individual control switches of each unit of roller conveyor 3. The laser scanning sensor 4 scans the gap between adjacent labels as the input signal. When a welding wire spool passes by, because the welding wire spool is opaque, the mirror reflection state between each group of mirror photoelectric sensors is blocked, and the mirror photoelectric sensors can receive the signal and transmit it to the controller. The signal transmission process is as follows: the welding wire spool is directly transported by the roller conveyor 3 to the position to be labeled below the return table 5. After the mirror photoelectric sensor near the return table 5 senses the arrival of the welding wire spool, it transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the label-removing machine 7 to run. During the operation, the laser scanning sensor 4 scans and senses the gap between the labels ( Figure 1 The gaps between the trademarks shown are relatively large, but in actual production, the gaps between adjacent trademarks are very small (approximately 0.2 cm). The signal is transmitted to the controller, which in turn controls the label-removing machine 7 to move the label to be affixed to a suitable position below the vacuum generator 6. At this time, the controller controls the cylinder 2 and the vacuum generator 6 to operate. The vacuum generator 6 first slightly presses down to attract the label, and then the controller controls the cylinder 2 to continue working. Under the piston drive of the cylinder 2, the vacuum generator 6 continues to press down, causing the self-adhesive label to be affixed to the welding wire reel. Then, the vacuum generator 6 stops working, and the cylinder 2 retracts to its original position. The welding wire reel with the label affixed continues to move forward under the action of the roller conveyor 3. All the sensors, label-removing machine 7, vacuum generator 6, cylinder 2, and roller conveyor 3 used in this invention can be purchased commercially or custom-made.
[0017] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
