The horizontal movement assembly in this embodiment includes a slide rail bracket 2-5, a slide rail 2-6, and a slider 2-7, as shown in fig. 6. In this embodiment, the pneumatic chuck assembly 2-8 is movably connected to the rotary motion assembly, when the rotary motion assembly moves, the pneumatic chuck assembly 2-8 can be driven to move, and then the pneumatic chuck assembly 2-8 is movably connected to the horizontal motion assembly, so that the pneumatic chuck assembly 2-8 can be driven to move linearly by the horizontal motion assembly.
Specifically, the connection relationship among the pneumatic chuck assemblies 2 to 8, the rotary motion assembly, and the horizontal motion assembly in this embodiment is as follows: the driven wheel 2-4-1 is arranged on an inner ring of the crossed roller bearing 2-4-3, the crossed roller bearing 2-4-3 is clamped tightly through a crossed roller bearing clamp spring 2-4-2, and the driving wheel 2-3 is meshed and connected with the driven wheel 2-4-1 and can drive the driven wheel 2-4-1 to rotate around the crossed roller bearing 2-4-3. The pneumatic motor 2-9 is arranged on a pneumatic motor base 2-13, the pneumatic motor base 2-13 is arranged on a labeling mechanism base 2-12 through bolts, and the output end of a pneumatic guide pipe 2-10 is fixed in a hole 2-8-2 of the sliding rod and sealed; the sucker 2-8-1 is arranged on the sliding rod 2-8-2, the lower top end of the sliding rod 2-8-2 is provided with a screw hole, and the positioning glass bead 2-8-7 can be screwed into the screw hole; the deep groove 201 ball bearings 2-8-6 are arranged at the lower ends of the sliding rods 2-8-2 through two deep groove 201 ball bearing snap springs 2-8-8; the pneumatic slide bar spring 2-8-4 is arranged between the pneumatic limiting block 2-8-5 and the pneumatic sucker base 2-8-3, and a boss with a larger diameter is arranged at the upper end of the slide bar 2-8-2 and can form a limiting position with the pneumatic sucker base 2-8-3 to prevent falling; the sliding rod 2-8-2 has a downward tension under the tension of the pneumatic sliding rod spring 2-8-4, i.e. the sliding rod 2-8-2 is at the lowest position downwards without external force.
In addition, a pneumatic sucker base 2-8-3 of the pneumatic sucker component 2-8 is fixed on a sliding block 2-7 through a bolt, the sliding block 2-7 is installed on a sliding rail 2-6 and can slide along the sliding rail 2-6, and two ends of the sliding rail 2-6 are installed on a sliding rail bracket 2-5; therefore, the pneumatic sucker component 2-8 can slide along the slide rail 2-6 under the action of the slide block 2-7. When the pneumatic sucker component 2-8 is installed, the positioning glass beads 2-8-7 on the pneumatic sucker component 2-8 are propped against the bottom surface of the driven wheel groove 2-4-1(1) on the driven wheel 2-4-1 and can rotate along the bottom surface of the driven wheel groove 2-4-1 (1); the deep groove 201 ball bearing 2-8-6 contacts with the side surface of the driven wheel groove 2-4-1(1) and can rotate along the side surface of the driven wheel groove 2-4-1 (1).
As shown in fig. 7, 8 and 9, the driven wheel groove 2-4-1(1) is arranged in a ring shape, and comprises shallow grooves arranged at two sides and a deep groove 201 arranged in the middle, and an inclined transition is adopted between the shallow grooves and the deep groove 201; when the driven wheel 2-4-1 rotates, the positioning glass beads 2-8-7 of the pneumatic suction cup assembly 2-8 move along the driven wheel groove 2-4-1 (1); when the sucker moves to the deep groove 201 part, the sliding rod 2-8-2 is at the lowest position, namely the sucker 2-8-1 is at the lowest position; when the sucker moves to a shallow ditch part, the sliding rod 2-8-2 is jacked upwards, the sliding rod 2-8-2 is at the highest position, namely the sucker 2-8-1 is at the highest position. It can be seen that the sliding rod 2-8-2 in this embodiment moves up and down relative to the sliding block 2-7, so that the suction cup 2-8-1 moves up and down to suck the label.
As shown in fig. 2, 3, 4 and fig. 11, the label accommodating member 30 in this embodiment includes a main drum 3-1, a main drum shaft 3-2, a main drum motor 3-3, an auxiliary drum 3-4, an auxiliary drum shaft 3-5, a label roll paper 3-6, a roll paper upper press wheel 3-7, a roll paper lower press wheel 3-8, a label top block 3-9, a label roll paper tension shaft 3-10, and an RFID electronic label 3-11. In this embodiment, the main drum 3-1 is connected to a main drum motor 3-3, and the main drum motor 3-3 is connected to the tact switch 4-4, so that when the tact switch 4-4 is triggered, the main drum motor 3-3 and thus the label releasing and placing member 30 can be controlled to operate. The auxiliary drum 3-4 of the present embodiment is linked with the main drum 3-1, and a specific linkage connection may be a meshing connection between gears, for example, gears are disposed on output shafts of the auxiliary drum 3-4 and the main drum 3-1 and are meshed with each other, so that when the main drum motor 3-3 controls the main drum 3-1 to move, the auxiliary drum 3-4 can be driven to rotate through the meshing connection of the gears. The label web 3-6 in this embodiment is wound around the main drum 3-1 and the sub drum 3-4, and is rotated by the main drum 3-1 and the sub drum 3-4, thereby controlling the transportation of the label web 3-6. Because the RFID electronic tag 3-11 is arranged on the label roll paper 3-6, when the RFID electronic tag 3-11 is conveyed to the upper part of the sucking disc 2-8-1, the sucking disc 2-8-1 just can suck the RFID electronic tag 3-11 through the motion control of the rotary motion component and the horizontal motion component, the RFID electronic tag 3-11 is sucked down, and then the RFID electronic tag 3-11 is attached to the bottom of the medicine bottle 4-3 through the motion control of the rotary motion component and the horizontal motion component, so that the labeling is realized. The suction cup 2-8-1 in the embodiment can suck and label the RFID electronic tag 3-11, and is mainly realized based on the structural shape of the driven wheel groove 2-4-1 (1). Because the two sides of the driven wheel groove 2-4-1(1) are shallow grooves and the middle is a deep groove 201, the heights of the suckers 2-8-1 are different when the sliding rod 2-8-2 moves to the shallow grooves and the deep groove 201, and the RFID electronic tags 3-11 can be sucked and labeled.
Specifically, the main drum 3-1 in the embodiment is installed on the main drum shaft 3-2, the main drum motor 3-3 is installed on the rear shell 1-1, and the main drum motor 3-3 can control the main drum 3-1 to rotate; the auxiliary rotary drum 3-2 is arranged on an auxiliary rotary drum shaft 3-5 and can rotate along with the main rotary drum 3-1; the label web 3-6 is transferred from the sub drum 3-2 to the main drum 3-1; the label roll paper 3-6 is tightly pressed by the roll paper upper pressing wheel 3-7 and the roll paper lower pressing wheel 3-8, and the label roll paper 3-6 is tightly pulled by the label roll paper tensioning shaft 3-10; when the pneumatic sucker component 2-8 is positioned in a shallow groove 101 in the driven wheel groove 2-4-1(1), the sucker 2-8-1 is upwards contacted with an RFID electronic tag 3-11 on the label roll paper 3-6, and a tag top block 3-9 on the RFID electronic tag 3-11 is used for supporting the RFID electronic tag 3-11 so as to ensure that the sucker 2-8-1 can be closely contacted with the RFID electronic tag 3-11; at the moment, the pneumatic motor 2-9 is started to enable the sucking disc 2-8-1 to suck the RFID electronic tag 3-11, and the label taking process is completed. And then the sucking disc 2-8-1 continues to move, and the RFID electronic tag 3-11 can be attached to the bottom of the medicine bottle 4-3.
The labeling process of the automatic labeling machine in this embodiment is as follows: the figure 4 is an initial position of the labeling machine, when a tact switch 4-4 is triggered, a turntable driving motor 2-2 works to drive a driving wheel 2-3 and a driven wheel 2-4-1 to rotate, a pneumatic sucker component 2-8 starts to rotate along a driven wheel groove 2-4-1, firstly moves to a shallow groove 101 in the driven wheel groove 2-4-1, the pneumatic sucker component 2-8 moves upwards, and meanwhile, the pneumatic motor 2-9 works to suck an RFID electronic tag 3-11 through a sucker 2-8-1 to finish label taking; and then moving to the deep groove 201 of the driven wheel groove 2-4-1, moving the pneumatic sucker component 2-8 downwards and moving towards the outer shallow groove 102, when moving to the outer shallow groove 102, moving the pneumatic sucker component 2-8 upwards to prop against the medicine bottle 4-3 and press the medicine bottle, stopping the work of the pneumatic motor 2-9, releasing the RFID electronic tag 3-11 by the sucker 2-8-1, and sticking the RFID electronic tag 3-11 to the bottom of the medicine bottle 4-3 to finish labeling. In the labeling process, the main drum motor 3-3 is started, and the next RFID electronic tag 3-11 is rotated to a position below the tag ejecting block 3-9 to prepare for next tag taking. Therefore, the automatic labeling machine in the embodiment does not need manual operation, and the efficiency of labeling work can be improved.
