Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of workpiece labeling, and in particular to an automatic workpiece labeling mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] After the workpiece is manufactured and formed, it undergoes quality inspection and needs to be labeled for identification. This is to prevent confusion in the workpieces and avoid situations where it is impossible to determine whether a workpiece has passed quality inspection. Workpiece quality inspection and labeling are usually carried out on the same production line.

[0003] In existing technologies, workpieces are gripped and fixed by a robotic arm, which then transports them from the quality inspection stage to the labeling stage by rotating the robotic arm. Workers then manually affix qualified labels to the workpieces, which consumes human resources and increases the cost of workpiece manufacturing. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides an automatic labeling mechanism for workpieces to solve the problem of increased costs associated with manual labeling in related technologies.

[0005] In a first aspect, an automatic labeling mechanism for workpieces is provided, comprising:

[0006] A positioning track, wherein there is a limiting space within the positioning track for the sliding of the label;

[0007] The cutting structure includes:

[0008] -Standard;

[0009] - A cutting board, which is slidably connected to the bracket, and the sliding direction of the cutting board is set perpendicular to the length direction of the positioning track;

[0010] - Cutting hole, the cutting hole is provided on the positioning rail, and the cutting plate can pass through the cutting hole.

[0011] In some embodiments, the cutting structure further includes a lifting element;

[0012] The lifting component is connected to the cutting board, and the lifting component is also connected to the bracket.

[0013] In some embodiments, the cutting structure further includes a translation component and a platform;

[0014] The translation component is disposed on the platform and is connected to the support.

[0015] In some embodiments, a top plate and several pads are also included;

[0016] The top plate is set close to the positioning track, and several pads are stacked together, with the top plate connected to the pads.

[0017] In some embodiments, the pad includes a housing and an insert, the insert being slidably connected within the housing.

[0018] In some embodiments, the pad also includes a spring, with its two ends connected to the insert and the housing, respectively.

[0019] This application provides an automatic labeling mechanism for workpieces. Since the label is placed on the positioning track, and then the workpiece moves to the bottom of the cutting hole, the label is cut by passing through the cutting hole with a cutting plate, and the cutting plate presses the cut label onto the workpiece. The label is then pasted onto the workpiece with adhesive. Therefore, this application uses a cutting plate and a cutting hole to replace manual label pasting on the workpiece.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0028] This application provides an automatic labeling mechanism for workpieces, which can solve the problem of increased costs due to manual labeling in related technologies.

[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 5 An automatic labeling mechanism for workpieces includes: a positioning track 1 and a cutting structure 2. The positioning track 1 has a limiting space for label sliding. The cutting structure 2 includes a bracket 21, a cutting plate 22, and a cutting hole 23. The cutting plate 22 is slidably connected to the bracket 21. The sliding direction of the cutting plate 22 is perpendicular to the length direction of the positioning track 1. The cutting hole 23 is provided on the positioning track 1, and the cutting plate 22 can pass through the cutting hole 23.

[0030] In this embodiment, the present application is disposed on a tabletop, such as Figure 1 As shown, a printer is also provided on the table. The positioning rail 1 is connected to the printer's output port. The label slides out of the printer and into the positioning rail 1. A cutting blade is provided on the edge of the cutting hole 23. When the cutting plate 22 passes through the cutting hole 23, the blade will cut the label.

[0031] In actual operation, the workpiece is clamped and transported to the area below the cutting hole 23 by a robotic arm. Due to the robotic arm's transport, the workpiece will have a fixed position below the cutting hole 23. At this time, the cutting plate 22 passes through the cutting hole 23 to cut, and the cutting plate 22 will press down the cut label. Since the workpiece will be fixed in the position below the cutting hole 23, it is only necessary to apply adhesive to the fixed position on the workpiece, and the label will be pressed onto the adhesive, thus attaching the label to the workpiece.

[0032] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the cutting structure 2 also includes a lifting component 24, a translation component 25, and a platform 26;

[0033] The lifting component 24 is connected to the cutting board 22, and the lifting component 24 is connected to the bracket 21;

[0034] The translation component 25 is disposed on the platform 26 and is connected to the bracket 21;

[0035] Both the lifting component 24 and the translation component 25 are cylinders. The lifting component 24 controls the lifting and lowering of the cutting plate 22 relative to the positioning rail 1, and the translation component 25 controls the horizontal movement of the cutting plate 22 relative to the positioning rail 1. When cutting is required, the translation component 25 moves the cutting plate 22 above the cutting hole 23, and then the lifting component 24 controls the lifting and lowering of the cutting plate 22. When cutting is not needed, the translation component 25 moves the cutting plate 22 away from above the cutting hole 23, and finally the cutting plate 22 moves to a flat surface, ensuring that the cutting plate 22 rests on a flat surface when the translation component 25 and the lifting component 24 are not working. In this application, as Figure 1 As shown, the translation component 25 will move the cutting board 22 toward the printer.

[0036] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a top plate 3 and several pads 4 are also included;

[0037] The top plate 3 is set close to the positioning track 1, and a plurality of pads 4 are stacked and connected to the top plate 3 and the pads 4;

[0038] In this application, as Figure 2 As shown, the positioning track 1 has a hole through which the cutting hole 23 passes, and a top plate 3 is provided below the hole. When the cutting plate 22 is not in use, the cutting plate 22 will be transported to the top plate 3. When the lifting component 24 stops being used, the cutting plate 22 falls onto the top plate 3.

[0039] Specifically, in this embodiment, the pad 4 includes a housing 41, an insert 42, and a spring 43. The insert 42 is slidably connected inside the housing 41. The pad 4 also includes a spring 43, the two ends of which are respectively connected to the insert 42 and the housing 41.

[0040] In this application, different numbers of pads 4 are stacked according to the height of the top plate 3, and then the top plate 3 is placed on top of the pads 4. At this time, the top plate 3 is as follows: Figure 3 The upper insert 42 is inserted into the pad 4, and the lower insert 42 is pressed down so that the upper insert 42 is inserted into the lower outer shell 41, fixing two adjacent pads 4 until the lower insert 42 is inserted into the table surface, fixing multiple stacked pads 4 on the table surface, and at the same time realizing the function of adjusting the height of the top plate 3 according to the height of the positioning track 1.
