Preferably, a display panel 7 is installed on the housing 11, the display panel 7 can ensure a liquid crystal display and various buttons and knobs including start-stop buttons, and the display panel 7 can control and observe the operation of each mechanism of the automatic labeling machine.

The mechanism directly mounted on the table 1 mainly includes a robot 2, a labeling device 3, a conveying mechanism 4, and the like, and a part of the labeling device 3 and the conveying mechanism 4 is located in the movement range of the robot 2. The manipulator 2 is provided with a suction block 21, the label feeding device 3 can provide labels to be attached, and the manipulator 2 can suck the labels in the label feeding device 3 through the suction block 21, transfer the labels and attach the labels to products conveyed by the conveying mechanism 4. The suction block 21 is a plane plate, a small hole machined is formed in the bottom surface of the suction block, and when the suction block 21 works, negative pressure vacuum can be formed inside the plane plate, and the label is sucked through the small hole.

The conveying mechanism 4 comprises a horizontal transverse frame 41, two ends of the transverse frame 41 extend to the outside of two sides of the workbench 1 respectively, a plurality of rollers 42 arranged side by side are arranged inside the transverse frame 41 side by side, all the rollers 42 are parallel to each other, two ends of each roller 42 are provided with an upper roller 44, and the upper rollers 44 are arranged inside the transverse frame 41 and can roll, so that all the rollers 42 can roll along the central axis of the rollers. When the products are fed onto the conveying mechanism 4, the products are thrown onto the rollers 42, and the rollers 42 roll in the same direction, so that the products can be conveyed from one end of the horizontal frame 41 to the other end.

A plurality of lower rollers 43 are sequentially mounted on both sides of the horizontal frame 41, and each lower roller 43 can be rolled by operation of a power device such as a motor. The upper rollers at two ends of each roller 42 are respectively disposed on the lower rollers 43 at two sides of the horizontal frame 41, that is, the lower rollers 43 are located below the upper rollers 44 and contact the upper rollers 44, and the lower rollers 43 roll to drive the upper rollers 44 and the rollers 42 to roll.

The lateral frame 41 surrounds both ends of the roller 42 and the lower roller 43, so that the movement is not disturbed by the external environment.
