[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely represents selected embodiments of the utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0034] Example 1:

[0035] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention proposes an automatic label sorting device, including a frame 1, with both ends of the frame movably connected to drive rollers 11. One end of the drive roller passes through the frame and is connected to the output end of a motor 12. A fixed roller 13 is provided above the drive roller, and a pressure roller 131 is symmetrically sleeved on the fixed roller. The bottom of the pressure roller abuts against the top of the drive roller. A support plate 14 is provided on the front side of the drive roller, and a support plate 25 and a movable roller 16 are provided on the rear side of the drive roller. Both ends of the support plate 1, support plate 2 and the movable roller are connected to the frame. A die-cutting machine 2 is provided on the front side of the frame, and a conveying assembly 3 and a waste recycling assembly 7 are provided on the rear side of the frame. After the label roll is die-cut by the die-cutting machine, it is pulled by the drive roller to the movable roller to separate the label and label roll waste. The label is conveyed to the collection platform 4 by the conveying assembly, and the label roll waste is rolled up by the waste recycling assembly.

[0036] In this example, the label roll moves at an irregular speed, but intermittently. During the stop, the die-cutting machine imprints the label roll, at which point both motor 1 and the motor of the waste recycling component stop. During the movement, motor 1 drives the drive roller to rotate, thereby moving the label roll forward. The pressure roller rotates synchronously and limits the two ends of the label roll to prevent it from shifting. During the movement of the label roll, support plate 1 and support plate 2 provide support to the label roll to prevent it from sagging. When the label roll moves to the movable roller, the label roll waste is pulled by the waste recycling component, and the label roll waste and the imprinted area of ​​the label are initially separated. In the next movement, the label is completely separated by the conveying component and conveyed to the collection platform.

[0037] In this embodiment, the die-cutting machine is further configured with triangular plates 21 symmetrically arranged at both ends of the rear side. A width-limiting roller 22 is provided on the triangular plate. One end of the width-limiting roller is connected to the triangular plate, and the other end of the width-limiting roller is provided with a circular plate 221. The circular plate abuts against the two sides of the label roll to limit the width at both ends of the label roll and prevent the label roll from shifting. A height-limiting roller 23 is provided between the two triangular plates. The bottom of the height-limiting roller abuts against the top surface of the label roll. The height-limiting roller can prevent the label roll from arching.

[0038] In this embodiment, the frame is further configured to have a support rod 17, which is located above the support plate, and a counter 171 is provided at the end of the support rod, with the counter facing the label roll.

[0039] In this embodiment, the conveying assembly is further configured to include a support frame 31, a conveying frame 32, a first conveying unit 33, and a second conveying unit 34. The support frame has an installation space; the conveying frame is installed on the top of the support frame; the first conveying unit is installed at the front end of the conveying frame and is connected to the movable roller; the second conveying unit is installed at the rear end of the conveying frame and is connected to the first transmission unit.

[0040] In this example, the first conveying unit includes a first conveyor roller, a third motor, and a first conveyor belt. The second conveying unit includes a second conveyor roller, a fourth motor, and a second conveyor belt. The first and second conveyor rollers are not shown in the figure. The third motor drives the first conveyor roller to rotate the first conveyor belt, and the third motor drives the second conveyor roller to rotate the second conveyor belt. This technology is prior art and will not be described in detail here. The speed of the third motor is greater than that of the fourth motor, which makes it easier for the first conveyor belt to quickly pull the label from the movable roller to the second conveyor belt, and the label moves at an idle speed on the second conveyor belt.

[0041] In this embodiment, the conveyor frame is further configured such that mounting frames 35 are provided at both ends, and the mounting frame array is provided with slot 1 351 and slot 2 352. The two ends of the paper pressing roller 1 36 and paper pressing roller 2 37 are respectively inserted into slot 1, the paper pressing roller 2 is located behind the paper pressing roller 1, and the two ends of the paper pressing roller 38 are inserted into slot 2.

[0042] In this example, the function of pressure roller one and pressure roller two is to prevent the labels from flying up and disrupting the label arrangement due to excessive speed during the first conveying unit, and to prevent the labels from flying up. The same applies to pressure roller three.

[0043] In this embodiment, the rear end of the conveyor frame is hinged to receive the collection platform, and a collection frame 5 is provided behind the collection platform. The collection frame is supported by a support platform 6.

[0044] In this example, the tags arrive at the collection platform at idle speed through the first conveying unit and the second transmission unit in sequence. The collection platform has overlapping tags, and the staff can collect the arranged tags and place them in the collection box without arranging them again, which is quite convenient.

[0045] In this embodiment, the waste recycling assembly is further configured to include a motor frame 71, a second motor 72, a support arm 74, a take-up roller 75, and a synchronous belt 76. The motor frame is installed at the bottom of the support frame; the second motor is installed on the motor frame, and the output end of the second motor is provided with a transmission roller 73; the bottom of the support arm is connected to the motor frame, and the support arm is provided with a pair; both ends of the take-up roller are movably connected to the support arm; the synchronous belt is connected to the transmission roller and the take-up roller respectively.

[0046] In this example, motor two drives the transmission roller to rotate, and the transmission roller drives the take-up roller to rotate via a synchronous belt. The take-up roller is wound with label roll waste. When the label roll passes through the movable roller, the label roll waste and the label are separated, with the label roll waste wrapped around the take-up roller. When the drive roller is driven by motor one to move the label roll, motor two rotates synchronously to take up the label roll waste. This winding method does not require frequent recycling and cleaning of the label roll. Once all the label rolls in a tray have been die-cut, the label roll waste can be replaced synchronously, which is relatively labor-saving and efficient.

[0047] In this embodiment, a height limiting plate 18 is provided above the movable roller. The two ends of the height limiting plate are connected to the frame. The height limiting plate can prevent the label from flying out, so that the movable roller and the conveyor belt can be better connected.

[0048] In this example, the height limiter can be a plastic sheet or paper, and its two ends can be attached to the frame with tape to prevent the height limiter from moving. There is a gap between the height limiter and the movable roller to allow the label roll to pass through.

[0049] The working principle of this automatic label sorting device is as follows: the die-cutting machine imprints the label roll, separating the label roll into labels and label roll waste. At this point, there are indentations between the labels and label roll waste, but they are not separated. The label roll is conveyed backward, and the height of the label roll is limited by the height limiting roller to prevent the label roll from arching. The width of the label roll is limited by the height limiting roller and the circular plate to prevent the label roll from shifting. The counter counts the number of labels that have passed. Support plates one and two provide support for the label roll to prevent it from sagging. Motor one drives the drive roller to rotate, thereby moving the label roll forward. The pressure roller rotates synchronously and limits the two ends of the label roll to prevent it from shifting. When the label roll moves to the movable roller, the label roll waste is pulled by the recycling roller, and the label roll waste and the indentation of the label are initially separated. In the next movement, the label is pulled by the first conveying unit, so that the label and the label roll waste are completely separated and then pass through the second conveying unit to the collection platform.
