Definitions
- the present invention relates to a machine for labeling of piece goods with irregular labeling surface height, namely unsorted eggs of different Size arranged on an egg carton are, with the features of the preamble of the claim 1.
- Machines for labeling eggs are known accordingly. While older systems such as those from US-3 094 920 and US-1 906 094 still worked with contact pressure, for example by means of stamp or pad printing devices, modern egg labeling machines work with inkjet printers, as they are known from computer technology and in DE-4 414 477 A and US-4 843 958 A are disclosed. This has the advantage that you can also get a graphic design can be reached easily using a PC.
- the eggs While in large chicken farms the eggs are cleaned and sorted get to the labeling machine and this accordingly very quickly under almost identical conditions can work, this is on farms, who keep chicken as a secondary income, not the case.
- the eggs are usually unsorted on so-called egg hump boxes, and these boxes with the eggs are in appropriate Inscription machines inserted, on which a mobile Printhead according to the grid of the egg cartons contactless over the eggs that are on it with the printhead vertically above each egg constant distance in relation to the height of the egg carton each stops and each egg with an inkjet printer labeled.
- the size difference of the unsorted eggs is considerable. Accordingly, the print head is kept at a safety distance moved over the eggs.
- the smallness however desired font now leads to this in large Eggs, which are the distance to the inkjet printhead is relatively small, precise and clearly recognizable, while for small eggs, the ink jet until it hits too far from the nozzle of the inkjet printer for the egg and so the writing becomes blurred.
- Another one Problem is that the eggs are not particularly accurate lie vertically aligned in the egg cartons. This additionally leads to the pressure jet having a relative large angle of deviation from the vertical to the egg surface occurs, which makes the entire label considerably is distorted.
- Stamp or pad printing devices require a direct one Contact. This is according to US-3'094'920-A and US-1'906'094-A achieved by spring-loaded stamp. Egg marking machines with inkjet printer according to DE-44'14'477-A and US-4'843'958-A fix the ink jet printer.
- the length of the stylus in relation to the direction of movement essentially affects the possible maximum adjustment the movement to the egg surface. If the tactile foot is very short, so extremely strong up and down movements occur, which at the required print speeds to dance the Feet can lead on the eggs. It has therefore proven to be proven particularly advantageous when the length of the feeler with respect to the direction of movement at least the length of two eggs next to each other in an egg carton having.
- An improved adaptation of the tactile foot to the printing surface can also be achieved by the Feet on the vertically movable arm parallel to the Axis extending longitudinally of the sensing foot pivotable is. This also ensures that eggs that have not been placed exactly vertically in the egg carton, can be labeled correctly.
- the carriage 1 which is also referred to as a mobile head, comprises a support plate 10 to which a housing 11 connects.
- a parallelogram steering 5 within the housing 11 arranged pivotably.
- the parallelogram steering exists from the two swiveling, parallel guide arms 12, one-sided via axles 13, 13 'with fixed parts of the mobile Wagens 1, for example with the housing 11, pivotable are connected.
- the two opposite ends of the pivotable guide arms 12 are articulated with a vertical movable arm 4 connected.
- all bearings 13 are ball bearings designed. This can be seen, for example, from FIG. 2. In the example shown, only the axis is 13 'connected to the housing 11.
- the parallelogram steering 5 thus allows an exact vertical up and down movement of the movable arm 4.
- the inkjet printer 2 At the end of this movable arm 4 is the inkjet printer 2 with its ink cartridge replaceable attached. He is essentially form and held frictionally in the foot 3.
- the control line 6 is preferably designed as a flat cable. This flat cable establishes the connection between the inkjet printer 2 and a control unit, which is not shown here, The cable only runs in the area visible here between the inkjet printer 2 and the carriage 1. Because the inkjet printer 2 in relation to the carriage 1 up and down move and perform a limited swivel movement can, the control line, which is designed as a flat cable is designed to be long enough to follow these movements to be able to.
- a receptacle 7 is pivotable arranged on the vertical, movable arm 4, a receptacle 7 is pivotable arranged.
- the swiveling movement takes place around an adjustment axis 8, which is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the Feet 3 is arranged and the vertical, movable Arm 4 penetrates.
- the touch foot 3 can thus both and downward movement as well as a lateral pivoting movement.
- the actual touch foot 3 is with the receptacle 7 connected.
- the feeler foot 3 is detailed in FIGS. 4a and 4b shown. It essentially consists of one arched runner 30, which has a longitudinal direction Has slot 31. On the runner 30 is a step-shaped side designed mounting plate 32 provided.
- the inkjet printer 2 is held on the receptacle 7 so that it is arranged exactly over the slot 31 in the runner 30, ensuring that the scanned egg matches the Inkjet printer itself cannot come into contact.
- a problem with these fast-working egg labeling machines is that when scanning along the Eggs significant up and down movements take place so that the movement must be extremely smooth, without the tactile foot 3 begins to dance across the eggs. Various precautions are provided for this.
- weight compensation takes place via a tension spring 14 in order to Weight of the foot 3, the inkjet printer 2, the Recording 7 and the movable arm 4 largely to compensate. Despite this compensation, during the Printing still smashed eggs, which is inexplicable for a long time appeared.
- the parallelogram steering 5 can not only in relation be compensated for the attached weight, but it can also be dampened in its movement.
- the easiest Form is the control line 6 as a relatively rigid To design flat cables. That means additional funds not necessary anymore.
- one of the joints of the parallelogram steering as a plastic joint to design that has a slightly increased friction and thus has a dampening function.
- the parallelogram arrangement is chosen to be one to achieve easy moving guidance of the printer, the one Damping allows for vertical without being too strong Accelerating forces act on the eggs. The same can also can be achieved if you have the printer at a sufficient arranges long swivel arm. Then the printhead guides one quasi-vertical movement, but which are also dampened can without the entire inertia at Vertical movement occurs. In this respect, there are also solutions with a swivel arm as a variant with the same effect Watch the parallelogram.
