Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of textile equipment, and in particular to an integrated feeding and unloading mechanism for a label printing machine. Background Technology

[0002] A label printing machine is a machine used to print labels and affix them to products. It is widely used in various industries and is a common piece of equipment. In the textile industry, label printing machines primarily print brand logos, composition information, and size information onto labels. In textile workshops, label printing machines typically form a separate production line and are used in the finished product processing stage. They need to operate synchronously with fabric cutting equipment, ensuring that one label accurately corresponds to one piece of finished fabric to facilitate the subsequent label sewing process.

[0003] Unlike other label printing machine applications, information labels in the textile industry are made of soft fabric, and the label area varies depending on the fabric, requiring a specific fit. Currently, the label printing machine body and the feeding mechanism are separate devices. The feeding mechanism transports the label to the printing head of the label printing machine. After printing, the label printing machine cuts the printed label and transports it to the unloading mechanism, from which it is removed.

[0004] Therefore, to address the structural redundancy issue in existing label printing machines, a structural approach can be taken to combine the feeding and unloading mechanisms on the label printing machine, thereby reducing the label conveying downtime and improving the label printing efficiency of the machine. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to improve the label printing efficiency of the label printing machine and ensure the synchronous manufacturing and conveying of labels and fabric, this application provides an integrated feeding and unloading mechanism for the label printing machine.

[0006] The integrated feeding and unloading mechanism for a label printing machine provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: An integrated feeding and unloading mechanism for a label printing machine includes a frame, on which a label printing head is mounted, the label printing head being vertically slidably positioned at the top of the frame, characterized in that it further includes: The label printing table has a horizontal surface and is vertically slidable directly below the label printing head; The first conveying component is set horizontally in the conveying direction and at the same height as the label printing table surface. It is located on one side of the label printing table and conveys labels to the label printing table. The second conveying component, with a horizontal conveying direction, is disposed on the label printing table adjacent to the first conveying component, and a section of the second conveying component protrudes from the label printing table away from the first conveying component along the conveying direction. A cutting component is disposed on the side of the label printing table opposite to the first conveying component.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the first conveying component, the second conveying component, and the cutting component are the basic parts of the feeding and unloading mechanism of the label printing machine after being combined and designed. The label printing table is a component that is set on the frame and can slide vertically, or in other words, can form a clamping relationship with the label printing head. The first conveying component is used to convey the fabric label roll. The relevant personnel directly place the label roll on the first conveying component, which then conveys the label roll to the second conveying component. The second conveying component unfolds the label roll into a flat surface. While unfolding, the second conveying component aligns the label with the label head directly below it. The label printing table moves the label upward, and the label head moves downward to abut against the label surface, printing the information onto the fabric surface of the label. During the printing process, the label printing table plays a role in coordinating with the label head to squeeze the label.

[0008] Optionally, the first conveying component includes: The conveyor rail extends in a direction close to the label printing table, with one end of the rail facing away from the conveyor table inclined upwards, for conveying label rolls; A transition piece is disposed between the label printing table and one end of the conveyor rail near the label printing table to convey the label roll on the conveyor rail to the label printing table.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the first conveying component consists of two parts: a conveying rail and a transition piece between the conveying rail and the label printing table. The conveying rail is used to convey label rolls. Relevant personnel directly place the label rolls on the conveying rail. The end of the conveying rail away from the label printing table is inclined upward to provide power for the label rolls to move towards the automatic rollers of the label printing table. Technicians can place multiple label rolls on the conveying rail at the same time. The transition piece is used to transport the label roll to the label printing table and connects the transport rail and the second transport assembly.

[0010] Optionally, the transition element includes: A rotating frame is vertically installed between the printing table and the conveying rail on the frame body. Multiple transition rods are horizontally installed and rotatably connected on the rotating frame. The multiple transition rods are distributed at equal angles along the circumference of the rotating frame. The rotating frame is equipped with a driving component that drives the transition rod to rotate.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating frame and the transition rod are the main structures of the transition component. The rotating frame is set vertically, and the transition rod is distributed on the frame of the rotating frame, or the edge of the rotating frame. The edge of the rotating frame is close to the conveyor rail and the label printing table. The label roll is inserted into the transition rod, and the rotation of the rotating frame is used to transport the label roll to the label printing table, thus completing the transport of the label roll.

[0012] Optionally, the rotating frame is horizontally slidably connected to the frame body, and the sliding direction is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying rail.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating frame slides and drives the transition rod to slide, so as to avoid affecting the conveying of the label roll. Therefore, before the label roll is conveyed, the rotating frame is slid towards the conveying rail so that the transition rod is inserted into the label roll and conveyed to the printing table with the rotation of the rotating frame, so that the second conveying component unfolds the label roll on the printing table.

[0014] Optionally, the second conveying component includes: The conveyor belt has chains connected end to end with a vertical belt surface. Multiple electric grippers are fixed to the chain body. The multiple electric grippers are evenly distributed along the length of the chain and are horizontally positioned, with one end extending directly above the labeling table.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the conveyor belt provides the conveying direction constraint for the electric grippers and provides the conveying power for multiple electric grippers. The electric grippers are conveyed along the conveyor belt on one side of the label printing table.

[0016] Optionally, the length of the conveyor belt is greater than the length of the printing table, and at least one-third greater than the length of the printing table; The end of the conveyor belt that is away from the first conveyor assembly protrudes from the label printing table.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the conveyor belt extends a portion to allow sufficient shearing space for the electric grippers to move along the conveyor belt beyond the label printing table. This further enables the two electric grippers that simultaneously hold a label to be positioned horizontally at one end of the conveyor belt extending beyond the label printing table, facilitating transport.

[0018] Optionally, the cutting component includes: A cutting blade is located at one end of the frame away from the first conveying assembly, and at the portion of the conveyor belt that protrudes from the label printing table.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the cutting blade is used to cut the label. When multiple electric grippers of the second conveying component simultaneously clamp the printed label and convey it to one side of the label printing table, the cutting blade completes the cutting of the label fabric.

[0020] Optional, also includes: A clamping rod is hinged at one end to the frame and extends to the top of the printing table. A gap is set between the hinged end and the surface of the printing table. The clamping rods are distributed in multiple horizontal directions.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the clamping rod is used to clamp the label during the printing process, at one end. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0027] This application discloses an integrated feeding and unloading mechanism for a label printing machine. (Refer to...) Figure 1 An integrated feeding and unloading mechanism for a label printing machine includes a frame 1. A first conveying component 2, a label printing table 3, a second conveying component 4, and a cutting component 5 are arranged on one side of the frame 1, which together form an integrated feeding and unloading structure for the label printing machine. The main body of the frame 1 is vertically arranged, and the part corresponding to the label printing table 3 is horizontally arranged. A label printing head 11 is vertically slidably arranged at the top of the frame 1. A cylinder is arranged above the label printing head 11 on the frame 1 to push the label printing head 11 downward. The label printing table 3 is arranged directly below the label printing head 11 and is vertically slidably arranged. A hydraulic drive component is arranged below the label printing table 3 on the frame 1 to drive the label printing table 3 upward. The label is conveyed to the table surface of the label printing table 3, and the label printing table 3 drives the label roll to move upward, while the label printing head 11 moves downward. The label printing table 3, which moves upward in tandem, clamps the label.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The first conveying assembly 2 includes a conveying rail 21 disposed on one side of the label printing table 3. The track direction of the conveying rail 21 extends towards the label printing table 3. The end of the conveying rail 21 near the label printing table 3 is horizontally positioned, while the end away from the label printing table 3 is curved upward in an arc shape. Thus, when personnel place multiple label rolls on the conveying rail 21, they can roll towards the label printing table 3 under the action of gravity. A rotating frame 22 is disposed between the conveying rail 21 and the label printing table 3 as a label conveying transition component between the label printing table 3 and the conveying rail 21. The central part of the rotating frame 22 is rotatably connected to the frame body 1. The rotating frame 22 is in the shape of a straight rod, and the central part is formed with a rotating shaft protruding from the rod body. The frame body 1 is provided with a connecting... A motor drives a rotating frame 22 to rotate. The end of the rotating frame 22 facing away from the motor is rotatably connected to the frame body 1. A transition rod 23 is horizontally and rotatably connected to one end of the rotating frame 22 near the label table 3. An electric push rod is installed at one end of the rotating frame 22 corresponding to the transition rod 23. The piston rod of the electric push rod passes through the end of the rotating frame 22 and is fixedly connected to the transition rod, causing the electric push rod to drive the transition rod 23 to slide back and forth along its own axial direction. A hinge rod is hinged to the inner wall of the conveyor rail 21 near one end of the rotating frame 22. One end of the hinge rod is hinged to the inner wall of the conveyor rail 21. The hinge shaft of the hinge rod is horizontally positioned and connected to a micro motor, which drives the hinge rod to rotate. A smart camera is installed at the hinge rod, connected to the control circuit of the aforementioned micro motor.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 The frame 1 is plate-shaped and positioned above the printing table 3. Multiple screw grooves are formed on the frame, with screws rotatably connected to each groove. The screws are vertically positioned, and a motor driving the screw rotation is located at the top of each groove. A slider is threaded onto the screw, sliding and connecting to the groove as the screw rotates. A connecting rod is formed on the side of the slider closest to the printing table 3, extending vertically downwards to a predetermined height gap between its bottom end and the printing table 3. A pressure rod 12 is horizontally positioned at the bottom end of the connecting rod facing the printing table 3, and an electric push rod is installed inside the bottom end of the connecting rod, pushing the pressure rod 12 to slide horizontally.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 The second conveying component 4 is located on one side of the label printing table 3. It includes a conveyor belt 41 with the belt surfaces of the conveyor belt 41 connected end to end and distributed in a vertical plane. Multiple electric grippers 42 are provided on the belt surface of the conveyor belt 41. The electric grippers 42 are evenly distributed along the belt surface of the conveyor belt 41. The electric grippers 42 rotate with the transmission of the conveyor belt 41. The gripper ends of the electric grippers 42 extend to the top of the label printing table 3. The height of the electric grippers 42 is less than the height of the highest rotation point of the transition rod 23 on the rotating frame 22.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3The cutting assembly 5 includes a cutting frame on one side, and a cutting blade 51 is vertically arranged inside the cutting frame. The blade edge of the cutting blade 51 is the bottom edge. A driving cylinder is arranged at the top of the cutting frame. The piston rod of the driving cylinder is vertically connected to the blade edge of the cutting blade 51, thereby driving the cutting blade 51 to move downward. The cutting blade 51 is arranged in the length direction of the conveyor rail 21.

[0032] The implementation principle of the integrated feeding and unloading mechanism of the label printing machine in this application embodiment is as follows: Before the label printing process begins, relevant personnel place multiple label rolls on the conveyor rail 21. The hinge rod is set horizontally to prevent the label rolls from rolling down to the label printing table 3 under the action of gravity. After all the labels on the label rolls on the label printing table 3 are printed, the micro motor drives the hinge rod to lift for a preset time, so that one label roll is conveyed to the rotating frame 22. At the same time, the rotating frame 22 rotates, and the electric push rod pushes the transition rod 23 to extend, inserting the roll of the label roll and driving the label roll to be conveyed to the label printing table 3.

[0033] When the smart camera recognizes that a label roll has passed by the hinge rod, the micro motor drives the hinge rod to fall, preventing the remaining label rolls from rolling off.

[0034] During the rotation of frame 1, under the action of gravity, the open end of the label roll and its opening portion will always be vertically downward. When the electric gripper 42 drives the label roll to unfold and continuously convey it, the pressure rod 12 is conveyed to the top of the unfolded label under the action of the electric push rod. During the label printing process, it moves down to press and tighten the label. The electric gripper 42, along with the rotation of the conveyor belt 41, grips the unfolded label roll and conveys and slides it towards the center of the label printing table 3. The rotating frame 22 stops rotating and is fixed. With the transmission of the conveyor belt 41, multiple electric grippers 42 sequentially grip each label on the label roll, with the gripping part located between two labels. In conjunction with the pressure rod 12, each label is printed sequentially. Then, the electric gripper 42 continues to convey the label while gripping it. When it is conveyed to the front end of the cutting frame, the electric gripper 42 releases, allowing the label to freely adhere to the surface of the label printing table 3. The electric gripper 42 at the front end grips the label behind and continues to convey it. The cutting blade 51 moves down to cut the label.

[0035] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
