Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of labeling equipment technology, specifically relating to a label paper printing and labeling machine with suction function. Background Technology

[0002] Label paper, also known as thermal fax paper, thermal recording paper, or thermal copy paper, is a type of thermal printing material commonly used in printers, cash registers, fax machines, label printers, and other similar devices. During the printing process, labels generate images and text through heat conduction, eliminating the need for ink or ribbons; hence, it is also called inkless printing paper. After printing, the labels need to be applied to the surface of the item. Traditional labeling machines typically use suction cups to pick up the labels, but this method is inconvenient, and because label paper... Due to material issues, suction cups may fail to pick up labels or the labels may fall off during the labeling process. Furthermore, traditional labeling machines use a pneumatic cylinder to drive the suction cup, but the extension and retraction control of the pneumatic cylinder is complex and inconvenient. The transmission method of the pneumatic cylinder may also cause machine instability due to unstable air supply. Additionally, using a pneumatic cylinder requires a pressure supply device, which is noisy and disrupts the working environment for operators. Therefore, we propose a labeling machine that can operate stably and effectively pick up labels. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a label printing and labeling machine with suction function, which aims to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

Compared with the traditional cylinder lifting method, this lifting method has the advantages of stable transmission, low noise and no need for a pressure supply device. When the suction component is pressed down to the surface of the label paper by the fan, the fan works to generate suction at the air inlet of the base plate to attract the label paper to the surface of the base plate. The spring and pin can buffer the downward pressure of the suction component, thereby avoiding the suction component from being overly pressed against the surface of the item and causing damage when labeling.

[0020] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figures 1-6 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a label printing and labeling machine with suction function, including a mounting plate 1, a unwinding device 2, a printer 3 and a lifting assembly 4 are mounted on the front of the mounting plate 1, the printer 3 is disposed between the unwinding device 2 and the lifting assembly 4, and a suction assembly 5 is mounted on the bottom of the lifting assembly 4.

[0022] In this embodiment, the suction assembly 5 includes a mounting frame 51. The top of the mounting frame 51 has an exhaust strip hole 52. A fan 53 is installed inside the mounting frame 51 by screws. A base plate 54 is installed at the bottom of the mounting frame 51 by screws. An air inlet strip hole 55 is opened on the surface of the base plate 54. A mounting seat 56 is provided at the top of the mounting frame 51. Openings 57 are provided at the four corners of the mounting seat 56. Four first screw holes 58 are provided at the top of the mounting frame 51. Pins 59 are inserted into the openings 57. A threaded section 510 is provided at the bottom of the pin 59. The threaded section 510 is threadedly connected to the first screw hole 58. A spring 511 is sleeved on the outside of the pin 59. The two ends of the spring 511 abut against the mounting frame 51 and the mounting seat 56 respectively. A mounting block 512 is installed at the top of the mounting seat 56.

[0023] Specifically, the lifting assembly 4 lowers the mounting frame 51, causing the base plate 54 to press onto the printed label paper. The fan 53 generates suction at the air inlet 55, adsorbing the label paper onto the surface of the base plate 54. The lifting assembly 4 then raises the suction assembly 5 with the label paper adsorbed. The conveying device then transports the item to be labeled to the bottom of the mounting frame 51. The lifting assembly 4 then lowers the mounting frame 51, causing the base plate 54 to press onto the surface of the item for labeling. During this process, the pins 59 and springs 511 cushion the downward pressure of the mounting frame 51, preventing the base plate 54 from pressing too hard on the item surface and causing damage.

[0024] In this embodiment, the lifting assembly 4 includes a slider 41 fixedly installed on one side of the front of the mounting plate 1, a slide bar 42 slidably installed on the side of the slider 41, a rack 43 fixedly connected to the side of the slide bar 42, a servo motor 44 installed on the back of the mounting plate 1, the output shaft of the servo motor 44 extending to the front of the mounting plate 1 and fixedly connected to a gear 45, the gear 45 meshing with the rack 43, and the slide bar 42 fixedly connected to the mounting block 512.

[0025] Specifically, the servo motor 44 drives the gear 45 to rotate, and the gear 45 meshes with the rack 43. Therefore, the rack 43 drives the slide bar 42 to rise and fall along the slider 41. The rise and fall of the slide bar 42 drives the mounting frame 51 to rise and fall. The way the servo motor 44 drives the gear 45 to rotate in conjunction with the rack 43 makes it easier for the operator to control the height of the slide bar 42. Compared with the traditional method of using a cylinder, this lifting method has high response accuracy of the servo motor 44, solves the problem of unstable machine operation caused by unstable air supply, and eliminates the need for a pressure supply device, effectively reducing the noise generated by the pumping of air by the pressure supply device and improving the comfort of the operator's working environment.

[0026] In this embodiment, the top of the mounting block 512 is provided with a slot 6, the bottom of the slot 6 is provided with a through connection hole 7, the bottom of the slide bar 42 is provided with a second screw hole, the slide bar 42 is inserted into the slot 6 and the second screw hole is aligned with the connection hole 7, and the slide bar 42 and the mounting block 512 are fixed by bolts installed in the connection hole 7 and the second screw hole.

[0027] Specifically, the bottom end of the slide bar 42 is inserted into the slot 6 and fixed to the mounting block 512 by bolts connecting the connection hole 7 and the second screw hole. This method allows the suction assembly 5 to be disassembled, making it easier for staff to maintain the suction assembly 5.

[0028] In this embodiment, a first mounting hole 513 is provided at the top of the mounting frame 51, and a second mounting hole 514 is provided on the surface of the base plate 54. A photoelectric switch 515 is installed in the first mounting hole 513 and the second mounting hole 514. A U-shaped groove 516 is provided on the surface of the mounting base 56 and the mounting block 512, and the photoelectric switch 515 is disposed in the U-shaped groove 516.

[0029] Specifically, the photoelectric switch 515 can detect whether there is a label or product at the bottom of the suction assembly 5. When the photoelectric switch 515 detects a label at the bottom of the suction assembly 5, the lifting assembly 4 drives the suction assembly 5 to descend and pick up the label. When the photoelectric switch 515 detects a product at the bottom of the suction assembly 5, the lifting assembly 4 drives the suction assembly 5 to descend and label the product. When the mounting frame 51 presses down on the product surface and compresses the spring 511, the U-shaped groove 516 prevents the photoelectric switch 515 from blocking the descent of the mounting base 56. The photoelectric switch 515 is installed inside the mounting frame 51, thus protecting the photoelectric switch 515.

[0030] In this embodiment, a protective cover 8 is installed on the back of the mounting plate 1. Heat dissipation strip holes 9 are provided on the side and back of the protective cover 8. An operation hole 10 is provided in the middle of the protective cover 8. The line connection port of the printer 3 is located at the operation hole 10.

[0031] Specifically, the heat dissipation holes 9 facilitate the dissipation of heat from inside the protective cover 8, while the operation holes 10 facilitate the operation of the printer 3 by staff.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
