Detailed Implementation
[0018] 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 embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0019] Example Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a flexible labeling head for a refrigerator robot, including a labeling head structure 100 and a support structure 200 for mounting the labeling head structure 100.
[0020] Please see Figures 1-3 The labeling head structure 100 includes a cavity 110 and a connecting seat 150. Air holes 111 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the cavity 110. An air pipe 130 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the cavity 110. The air pipe 130 is connected to an air pump through a hose. A connecting plate 140 is fixedly fixed to the top surface of the cavity 110. A guide sleeve 151 is fixedly inserted through the inside of the connecting seat 150. An elastic element 160 is connected between the guide sleeve 151 and the connecting plate 140.
[0021] A flexible pad 120 is fixed to the surface of the cavity 110. The flexible pad 120 has through holes 121 corresponding to the air vents 111. The flexible pad 120 increases flexibility and improves label protection. The elastic element 160 includes a movable rod 161 and a first spring 162. The movable rod 161 slides through the guide sleeve 151. A second fixing plate 164 is fixed to one end of the movable rod 161 and is fixed to the connecting plate 140. A first fixing plate 163 is fixed to the other end of the movable rod 161. The first spring 162 is sleeved on the movable rod 161, and both ends of the first spring 162 are fixed to the second fixing plate 164 and the guide sleeve 151, respectively. The elastic element 160 further increases the cushioning effect when contacting the label, ensuring labeling stability and significantly reducing damage to the label during application, making it more convenient to use.
[0022] Please see Figures 1-4 The support structure 200 includes a fixed frame 210, two labeling roll fixing parts 240 and a stepper motor 250. Two support rods 211 are rotatably connected to the fixed frame 210. A drive part 220 is installed on the top surface of the fixed frame 210. The drive part 220 is fixed to the connecting seat 150. The two labeling roll fixing parts 240 are installed on the fixed frame 210. The stepper motor 250 is installed on one side of the fixed frame 210. The end of the output shaft of the stepper motor 250 is connected to one of the labeling roll fixing parts 240.
[0023] The drive unit 220 includes an electric slide 221 and a cylinder 222. The electric slide 221 is mounted on the fixed frame 210, and the cylinder 222 is mounted on the output end of the electric slide 221. The output end of the cylinder 222 is connected to the connecting seat 150. Here, the electric slide 221 can move horizontally, and the cylinder 222 can perform vertical labeling pressing. A connecting frame 230 is also fixed on the fixed frame 210. The connecting frame 230 has nail holes 231 evenly spaced on it. The connecting frame 230 can be mounted on the conveyor belt using the nail holes 231, which makes the labeling process more convenient.
[0024] The labeling roll fixing component 240 includes a fixing rod 241, a second spring 244, and a second pressing block 247. A limiting protrusion 242 is fixed on the fixing rod 241. The fixing rod 241 and the limiting protrusion 242 slide through the fixing frame 210. An end plate 243 and a third fixing plate 245 are respectively fixed at both ends of the fixing rod 241. The second spring 244 is sleeved on the fixing rod 241 and the limiting protrusion 242. One end of the second spring 244 is fixed to the fixing frame 210, and the other end of the second spring 244 is fixed to the third fixing plate. 245 is fixed, and a first extrusion block 246 is rotatably connected to one side of the third fixing plate 245. A connecting post 248 is fixed to one side of the second extrusion block 247. The connecting post 248 is rotatably connected to the fixing frame 210. Here, the label roll can be positioned and fixed by the label roll fixing component 240. Then, after passing around the two support rods 211, the label paper is fixed to the roll of another label roll fixing component 240. In this way, the rotation of the stepper motor 250 can be used for winding, thereby improving the continuity of labeling.
[0025] The end of the output shaft of the stepper motor 250 is connected to another connecting post 248. The inside of the fixing bracket 210 is provided with holes and slots that match the fixing rod 241 and the limiting protrusion 242. The first extrusion block 246 and the second extrusion block 247 are correspondingly arranged. Both the first extrusion block 246 and the second extrusion block 247 are frustum-shaped and have anti-slip grooves on their surfaces. The frustum-shaped first extrusion block 246 and the second extrusion block 247 can easily fix drums with different inner diameters. At the same time, the anti-slip grooves can increase the friction between the drum and the drum and improve the stability of the fixation.
[0026] Specifically, the working principle of the flexible labeling head of this refrigerator robot is as follows: During use, the support structure 200 is fixed to the product transfer conveyor belt using the connecting frame 230 and nail holes 231. Then, a roll of label tape is fixed to one label roll fixing component 240, and a roll is installed on another label roll fixing component 240. The label webbing is then wrapped around two support rods 211 and fixed to the roll. A stepper motor 250 drives the roll to rotate, causing the label tape to rotate to the top surface of the two support rods 211. At this point, the sides of the label tape separate from the release paper on the label tape. Then, the electric slide 221 drives the cylinder 222 to move, positioning the cavity 110 directly above the label tape. The cylinder 222 then operates... The cavity 110 is bonded to the label. During the bonding process, the elastic element 160 provides elastic cushioning. Then, the air pump creates a vacuum negative pressure in the cavity 110, and the label is adsorbed through the air vent 111. The cylinder 222 and the electric slide 221 are then used for transfer. When the label is moved above the product, the cylinder 222 moves the label down to bond it to the product surface. At the same time, the stepper motor 250 drives the roller to rotate, so that the next label is placed on the support rod 211. This process is repeated. In this way, the rigidity between the label head and the label can be reduced during use, thereby more effectively protecting the label and reducing damage. At the same time, it can make the labeling more stable, improve the labeling efficiency and quality, and make it more convenient to use.
[0027] It should be noted that the specific models and specifications of the electric slide table 221, cylinder 222 and stepper motor 250 need to be selected and determined according to the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail.
[0028] The power supply and operating principle of the electric slide 221, cylinder 222 and stepper motor 250 are clear to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.
[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
