Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of label pressing machine technology, and more specifically to a lifting and flipping device for an automatic label pressing machine. Background Technology

[0002] Labeling is a surface embossing technology, which is a processing technology that presents brand logos, product series, model information, etc. on products through heat pressing technology. At present, in labor-intensive industries such as light textile industry, labeling on knitted fabrics is an essential process. In the past, labeling methods mostly adopted manual label picking and labeling, and then machine heat pressing. This method of labeling is not efficient, has low labeling accuracy and poor quality, and consumes a lot of manpower. Therefore, some manufacturers have developed some automatic label picking and labeling equipment to address this problem. The following two forms of label picking and labeling methods are commonly used in existing automatic label picking and labeling machines: one is the wiping method of labeling, and the other is the moving label picking and labeling. The process is as follows: (1) The label is automatically peeled off from the backing paper after passing the peeling plate during the movement of the label tape; (2) The labeling head moves to the top of the label after it has been partially peeled off from the backing paper, and after adsorbing the label by vacuum suction, the labeling head returns to the top of the object to be labeled. However, in actual use, there are often situations where products need to be labeled on both the top and bottom sides. Currently, the method used is to manually flip the product, which results in high labor costs, reduced labeling efficiency, and a tendency for missed labels. The level of automation is also low. To address this, the inventor has proposed a lifting and flipping device for an automatic labeling machine. By setting a flipping mechanism in the middle of the automatic labeling machine, the product can be automatically flipped, facilitating automatic labeling on both the top and bottom sides without manual intervention and achieving a high level of automation.

[0003] To automate product labeling and improve the accuracy and efficiency of product marking, Chinese Patent (Authorization Announcement No.: CN211333170U) discloses an automatic labeling mechanism. This utility model includes a work frame and a driver mounted on the work frame. A guide plate is installed at the output end of the driver, and the guide plate is connected to an electrode pressing plate via a guide shaft. A spring-loaded part is provided between the guide plate and the electrode pressing plate, and an electrode tab pressing knife is installed on the side of the guide plate. This utility model can accurately and effectively mark poorly welded electrodes, improve the automation level of batteries, and enhance the accuracy and efficiency of marking defective products. It also helps reduce battery safety hazards and is suitable for large-scale automated battery production.

[0004] The solution still has some shortcomings in application. Due to the different labeling requirements of different scenarios or products, some products need to be labeled on both sides due to product characteristics or marketing needs. They need to be able to automatically flip the labels. Otherwise, if the labeling is done manually, the efficiency is low and it is easy to miss the label. Therefore, a lifting and flipping device needs to be added in the middle of the automatic labeling machine so that it can automatically flip the product and realize the function of double-sided labeling, thereby further improving the practical performance of the automatic labeling machine.
