Description

本発明は、物品にラベルを貼付するラベル貼付装置に係り、特に、物品の表面にラベルを巻掛けるとともにラベルの両端部側同士を接合して貼付するラベル貼付装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a label sticking apparatus for sticking a label to an article, and more particularly, to a label sticking apparatus that wraps a label around the surface of an article and joins both ends of the label together.

一般に、図11に示すように、例えば横断面円形の物品Wの表面にラベルLを貼付することを行なうが、その方法として、物品Wの表面にラベルLの中央Laを含む部分を巻掛けるとともにラベルLの両端部側Lb同士を接合して貼付する方法が知られている。このように、ラベルLの両端部側Lb同士を接合して所謂「耳」を設けると、ラベルLに記載される情報量が多くなり、特に、物品Wが径の細い棒材やパイプ等では有効である。図11に示す物品は曲げのある棒材である。
この貼付方法においては、ラベルLの両端部側Lb同士を接合して貼付するので、従来は、手作業による貼付を行なっている。
In general, as shown in FIG. 11, for example, a label L is affixed to the surface of an article W having a circular cross section. As a method, a portion including the center La of the label L is wound around the surface of the article W. A method is known in which both end portions Lb of the label L are bonded and pasted. As described above, when so-called “ears” are provided by joining both end portions Lb of the label L, the amount of information described on the label L increases. It is valid. The article shown in FIG. 11 is a bent bar.
In this affixing method, both end portions Lb of the label L are bonded and affixed, so that conventionally affixing is performed manually.

ところで、本願出願人は、このような所謂「耳」付のラベルの貼付を自動化する技術を研究しており、この過程では、以下に示すような横断面円形の物品の表面にラベルを貼付する従来のラベル貼付装置にも着目した。
従来、横断面円形の物品の表面にラベルを貼付するラベル貼付装置としては、例えば、特許文献1(特開平6−199327号公報)に掲載のものが知られている。
このラベル貼付装置は、図12に示すように、ラベル搬送ドラム100の外周面にラベルLを位置決め保持して搬送する一方、ラベル搬送ドラム100の外周速度より速い速度でかつ同方向に回転する搬送ベルト101で物品Wを搬送し、この搬送過程でラベル搬送ドラム100に物品Wを圧着しラベルLの移動方向に対しその反対方向に物品Wを移動しながらラベル搬送ドラム100の面に物品Wを転がり接触させてラベルLを貼付するものである。
By the way, the applicant of the present application is researching a technique for automating the application of such a so-called “ear” label. In this process, the label is applied to the surface of an article having a circular cross section as shown below. We also focused on conventional labeling devices.
Conventionally, as a label sticking device for sticking a label on the surface of an article having a circular cross section, for example, one disclosed in Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 6-199327) is known.
As shown in FIG. 12, the label sticking device positions and holds the label L on the outer peripheral surface of the label transport drum 100 and transports it, while transporting at a speed faster than the outer peripheral speed of the label transport drum 100 and rotating in the same direction. The article W is conveyed by the belt 101, and the article W is pressed on the label conveyance drum 100 in the conveyance process, and the article W is moved on the surface of the label conveyance drum 100 while moving the article W in the opposite direction to the moving direction of the label L. The label L is stuck by rolling contact.

また、従来においては、例えば、特許文献2(特開昭53−82300号公報)に掲載のものも知られている。
このラベル貼付装置は、図13に示すように、物品受け部110に物品W(ここでは線香の束)の所要箇所を接触状態で支持して物品Wを受け、回転部材111によりこの物品Wの両端面を挾持して物品Wを回転させ、物品受け部110に供給したラベルLをローラ状の押圧部材112で押圧してラベルLを貼付するものである。
Conventionally, for example, those disclosed in Patent Document 2 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 53-82300) are also known.
As shown in FIG. 13, the label sticking device receives the article W by supporting a required portion of the article W (here, a bundle of incense sticks) in contact with the article receiving unit 110, and the rotating member 111 of the article W The article W is rotated by holding both end faces, and the label L supplied to the article receiving unit 110 is pressed by a roller-like pressing member 112 to stick the label L.

ところで、上記従来のラベル貼付装置にあっては、何れも物品Wを回転させてラベルLを貼付しているので、上記の所謂「耳」付のラベルLの貼付を行なうことはできないことから、これらの従来技術を用いての自動化を実現することが実質的にできないという問題があった。
また、上記の従来の方式では物品Wを回転させるので、物品Wがパイプや棒材のように長尺のものでは回転をさせることが極めて困難になり、特に、図11に示すように、物品Wが曲がっているものでは回転が不能になり、汎用性に劣るという問題もあった。
By the way, in the above conventional label sticking apparatus, since the label L is stuck by rotating the article W, the label L with the so-called “ear” cannot be stuck. There has been a problem that it is practically impossible to realize automation using these conventional techniques.
In addition, since the article W is rotated in the above-described conventional method, it is extremely difficult to rotate the article W when the article W is long like a pipe or a bar. In particular, as shown in FIG. When W is bent, the rotation becomes impossible and there is a problem that it is inferior in versatility.

本発明は上記の問題点に鑑みて為されたもので、ラベルの両端部側同士を接合して貼付することができるように自動化を図るとともに、長尺や曲りのある物品にもラベルを貼付できるようにして汎用性の向上を図ったラベル貼付装置を提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and is designed to be automated so that both end portions of the label can be bonded to each other, and the label is also applied to a long or bent article. An object of the present invention is to provide a label sticking device that can improve versatility.

上記課題を解決するため、本発明のラベル貼付装置は、物品の表面に該物品の周長より長いラベルを巻掛けるとともに該ラベルの両端部側同士を接合して貼付するラベル貼付装置において、上記物品のラベル貼付位置の外周を開放して該物品を支持する支持部と、該物品のラベル貼付位置の一部にラベルの中央を貼付するラベル中央貼付部と、該貼付されたラベルの両端部側を該両端部側が互いに近接する方向に押圧し該ラベルの端部側同士を対面させて接合させる押圧機構とを備えた構成にしている。   In order to solve the above problems, the label sticking device of the present invention is a label sticking device that wraps a label longer than the circumference of the article around the surface of the article and bonds both ends of the label to each other. A support part that supports the article by opening the outer periphery of the labeling position of the article, a label centering part that pastes the center of the label at a part of the labeling position of the article, and both ends of the affixed label And a pressing mechanism that presses the sides in a direction in which both end portions are close to each other and brings the end portions of the label into contact with each other.

これにより、物品にラベルを貼付するときは、先ず、物品を支持部に支持する。次に、ラベル中央貼付部がラベルの中央を物品の一部に貼付する。その後、押圧機構がラベルの両端部側を押圧すると、ラベルの端部側同士は対面させられて接合させられる。そのため、物品を回転させることなく、支持部に支持させるだけでラベルが貼付されるので、ラベル貼付作業がきわめて容易に行われる。その結果、物品を回転させることなく、所謂「耳」付のラベルの貼付を自動的に行なうことができる。また、物品を回転させることなくラベルが貼付されるので、パイプや棒材のように長尺の物品に容易にラベルを貼付でき、特に、物品が曲がっているものでも容易にラベルを貼付できることから、汎用性が増加させられる。   Thereby, when affixing a label on an article, the article is first supported by the support portion. Next, the label center sticking part sticks the center of the label to a part of the article. Thereafter, when the pressing mechanism presses both end portions of the label, the end portions of the label face each other and are joined. Therefore, since the label is pasted simply by supporting the article without rotating it, the label pasting operation can be performed very easily. As a result, a label with a so-called “ear” can be automatically attached without rotating the article. In addition, since the label is affixed without rotating the article, the label can be easily affixed to a long article such as a pipe or a bar, and in particular, even if the article is bent, it can be easily affixed. , Versatility is increased.

そして、必要に応じ、上記押圧機構を、上記物品の両側方に夫々設けられ該物品の軸方向に直交する方向に前後動可能なピストン及びシリンダを有した一対のシリンダ装置と、該各シリンダ装置のピストンに設けられ前進時に上記ラベルの端部側に当接して該端部側を押圧する押圧体とを備えて構成している。
これにより、押圧機構は、押圧体をシリンダ装置で押圧するので、物品の太さが異なっても押圧することができ、太さに合わせた特別の設定をしなくてもある程度対応できることから、作業が容易になり、また、汎用性も増加させられる。
And, if necessary, a pair of cylinder devices each having a piston and a cylinder that are provided on both sides of the article and can move back and forth in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the article, and the cylinder devices And a pressing body that is in contact with the end portion side of the label and presses the end portion side during advance.
Thereby, since the pressing mechanism presses the pressing body with the cylinder device, it can be pressed even if the thickness of the article is different, and it can cope to some extent even without special setting according to the thickness. And the versatility can be increased.

また、必要に応じ、上記シリンダ装置を上記押圧体が後退した状態で上記物品の側面に対峙する進出位置に進出させるとともに該進出位置において上記押圧体が前進した際該押圧体の前進状態のまま該進出位置から退出位置に退出させ該退出過程で上記押圧体を上記物品の側面に摺接させる進退動機構を備えた構成にしている。   Further, if necessary, the cylinder device is advanced to an advance position facing the side surface of the article in a state where the press body is retracted, and when the press body is advanced at the advanced position, the press body is kept in the advanced state. An advance / retreat mechanism is provided that retreats from the advance position to the retreat position and slides the pressing body against the side surface of the article during the retreat process.

これにより、ラベルを貼付するときには、先ず、物品を支持部に支持する。次に、ラベル中央貼付部がラベルの中央を物品の一部に貼付する。それから、進退動機構が作動し、シリンダ装置を押圧体が後退した状態で物品の側面に対峙する進出位置に進出させる。この状態で、押圧機構のシリンダ装置がピストンを前進させる。これにより、押圧体が前進し物品の側面に当接する。
そして、進退動機構が作動し、押圧体の前進状態のままシリンダ装置を進出位置から退出位置に退出させる。この退出過程では、押圧体は前進させられているので、押圧体は物品の側面に摺接させられ、かつ、ラベルの端部側に摺接させられる。これにより、ラベルは、押圧体の摺接移動により物品の側面に押圧されるので、この物品の側面に確実に貼付されるとともに、押圧体が物品の側面を離れると今度はラベルの端部側同士が押圧体の摺接移動により押圧されるので、ラベルの端部側同士が確実に接合される。
Thereby, when affixing a label, an article | item is first supported by a support part. Next, the label center sticking part sticks the center of the label to a part of the article. Then, the advance / retreat mechanism is activated, and the cylinder device is advanced to the advance position facing the side surface of the article with the pressing body retracted. In this state, the cylinder device of the pressing mechanism advances the piston. As a result, the pressing body advances and contacts the side surface of the article.
Then, the advance / retreat mechanism is activated, and the cylinder device is retracted from the advanced position to the retracted position while the pressing body is in the advanced state. In this withdrawal process, the pressing body is moved forward, so that the pressing body is slidably contacted with the side surface of the article and is slidably contacted with the end portion side of the label. As a result, the label is pressed against the side surface of the article by the sliding movement of the pressing body, so that the label is securely affixed to the side surface of the article. Since the members are pressed by the sliding movement of the pressing members, the end portions of the labels are reliably bonded to each other.

更に、必要に応じ、上記押圧体を、基端が上記ピストンの先端に設けられ先端が該ピストンの先端より前側に位置して上記ラベルの端部側に当接する傾斜した板体で構成している。押圧体は板体であり、板体の先端がラベルに当接するので、板体の先端の略線接触によりラベルが押さえられることになり、そのため、ラベルの貼付が確実に行なわれていく。特に、板体の先端が線状なので、ラベルの端部側同士の接合始点を良く押えることができ、この点で確実にラベルを巻掛けて貼付することができるようになる。   Further, if necessary, the pressing body is constituted by an inclined plate body whose base end is provided at the front end of the piston and whose front end is located in front of the front end of the piston and is in contact with the end side of the label. Yes. Since the pressing body is a plate body, and the leading end of the plate body abuts on the label, the label is pressed by the substantially line contact of the leading end of the plate body, so that the label is surely adhered. In particular, since the front end of the plate body is linear, the joining start point between the end portions of the label can be well pressed, and at this point, the label can be reliably wound and pasted.

更にまた、必要に応じ、上記押圧体の前進時に該押圧体を上記物品の側面に弾接させる弾接機構を設けた構成としている。押圧体は物品の側面に弾接するので、押圧体は物品の側面に摺接させられ、かつ、ラベルの端部側に摺接させられる。これにより、ラベルは、押圧体の摺接移動により物品の側面に押圧されるので、この物品の側面に確実に貼付されるとともに、押圧体が物品の側面を離れると今度はラベルの端部側同士が押圧体の摺接移動により押圧されるので、ラベルの端部側同士が確実に接合される。また、押圧体は弾接させられるので、物品の太さが異なっても押圧することができ、そのため、種々の太さの物品にラベルを貼付できる。そのため、太さに合わせた特別の設定をしなくてもある程度対応できることから、作業が容易になり、また、汎用性も増加させられる。   Furthermore, if necessary, a configuration is provided in which a resilient contact mechanism is provided for resiliently contacting the pressing body with the side surface of the article when the pressing body advances. Since the pressing body elastically contacts the side surface of the article, the pressing body is slidably contacted with the side surface of the article and slidably contacted with the end portion side of the label. As a result, the label is pressed against the side surface of the article by the sliding movement of the pressing body, so that the label is securely affixed to the side surface of the article. Since the members are pressed by the sliding movement of the pressing members, the end portions of the labels are reliably bonded to each other. Moreover, since the pressing body is elastically contacted, it can be pressed even if the thickness of the article is different, and therefore, labels can be attached to articles of various thicknesses. Therefore, it can be handled to some extent without special setting according to the thickness, so that the work becomes easy and versatility can be increased.

また、必要に応じ、上記進退動機構による上記シリンダ装置の進出位置において上記ラベルの互いに対面する両端部側間に臨み該進出位置から退出位置への退出の際上記ラベルの互いに対面する両端部側間から退避する仕切り部材を設けた構成としている。仕切り部材があるので、ラベルの端部側が、静電気などで勝手に接合してしまう事態が防止され、ラベルが曲がって接合されたり、位置ずれして接合されるなどの支障が防止される。   Further, if necessary, both end sides of the label that face each other at the advancing position of the cylinder device by the advancing / retreating mechanism and that face between the opposite end sides of the label face each other when exiting from the advancing position to the retracting position. A partition member for retreating from the space is provided. Since there is a partition member, it is possible to prevent the end of the label from being joined unintentionally due to static electricity or the like, and it is possible to prevent troubles such as the label being bent or joined in a misaligned position.

更に、必要に応じ、上記ラベル中央貼付部により貼付されたラベルの両端部側を上記押圧体に対峙できるように該ラベルの両端部側を物品に対する巻掛け方向に折り曲げる折り曲げ機構を備えた構成としている。押圧体の押圧の際には、ラベルの端部側が押圧体に対峙できるように位置させられているので、押圧体がラベルの表側から当接することができ、押圧体がラベルの裏面にくっついてしまうような事態が防止される。   Furthermore, as a configuration provided with a bending mechanism that bends both ends of the label in the winding direction around the article so that both ends of the label affixed by the label center affixing part can face the pressing body as necessary. Yes. When the pressing body is pressed, the end side of the label is positioned so as to face the pressing body, so that the pressing body can contact from the front side of the label, and the pressing body sticks to the back surface of the label. Such a situation is prevented.

本発明のラベル貼付装置によれば、物品を回転させることなく、物品を支持部に支持させるだけでラベルを貼付することができるので、ラベル貼付作業をきわめて容易に行なうことができる。その結果、物品を回転させることなく、所謂「耳」付のラベルの貼付を自動的に行なうことができる。また、物品を回転させることなくラベルを貼付することができるので、パイプや棒材のように長尺の物品に容易にラベルを貼付でき、特に、物品が曲がっているものでも容易にラベルを貼付できることから、汎用性を大幅に増加させることができる。   According to the label sticking device of the present invention, since the label can be stuck only by supporting the article on the support portion without rotating the article, the label sticking operation can be performed very easily. As a result, a label with a so-called “ear” can be automatically attached without rotating the article. In addition, since the label can be attached without rotating the article, the label can be easily attached to a long article such as a pipe or a bar, and even if the article is bent, the label can be easily attached. As a result, versatility can be greatly increased.

また、押圧体の前進状態のまま進出位置から退出位置に退出させ、退出過程で押圧体を物品の側面に摺接させる進退動機構を備えた場合には、ラベルは、押圧体の摺接移動により物品の側面に押圧されるので、この物品の側面に確実に貼付されるとともに、押圧体が物品の側面を離れると今度はラベルの端部側同士が押圧体の摺接移動により押圧されるので、ラベルの端部側同士を確実に接合することができ、貼付を確実に行なうことができる。   In addition, when the press body is provided with an advance / retreat mechanism that causes the press body to retreat from the advance position to the retreat position with the advance state of the press body and slides the press body against the side surface of the article during the retreat process, the label is slidably moved. Is pressed to the side surface of the article, and when the pressing body leaves the side surface of the article, the end sides of the label are pressed by the sliding movement of the pressing body. Therefore, the end portions of the labels can be reliably bonded to each other, and the sticking can be reliably performed.

Specifically, the pressing mechanism 30 includes a pair of air cylinder devices 31 each having a piston 32 and a cylinder 33 that are provided on both sides of the article W and can move back and forth in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the article W, and each cylinder device. And a pressing body 34 that is provided on the piston 32 of 31 and abuts against the end portion side Lb of the label L during forward movement to press the end portion side Lb.
In the embodiment, the pair of cylinder devices 31 are attached to the attachment plate 35 such that the axes of the pistons 32 are positioned coaxially.

押圧体34は、基端がピストン32の先端に設けられ先端がピストン32の先端より上側かつ前側に位置してラベルLの端部側Lbに当接する傾斜した板体36で構成されている。また、押圧体34の前進時に押圧体34を物品Wの側面に弾接させる弾接機構37が設けられている。弾接機構37は、板体36の基端部を回動可能にピストン32先端の取付部32aに設け、この取付部32aに板体36の基端を引張して板体36の先端36aを物品W側に付勢するスプリング38と、板体36の物品W側への回動位置を位置決めするストッパ(図示せず)とを備え、物品Wに当接しあるいはラベルLの端部側Lbを接合する際に板体36同士が当接して板体36がピストン32の後退側への反力を受けたとき、スプリング38の付勢力に抗してスプリング38を引っ張り、これにより、弾接できるようにしている。   The pressing body 34 is configured by an inclined plate body 36 whose base end is provided at the tip of the piston 32 and whose tip is located above and in front of the piston 32 and abuts against the end Lb of the label L. Further, an elastic contact mechanism 37 is provided that elastically contacts the pressing body 34 with the side surface of the article W when the pressing body 34 moves forward. The elastic contact mechanism 37 is provided at a mounting portion 32a at the tip end of the piston 32 so that the base end portion of the plate body 36 is rotatable, and the tip end 36a of the plate body 36 is pulled by pulling the base end of the plate body 36 to the mounting portion 32a. A spring 38 for urging the article W side and a stopper (not shown) for positioning the rotational position of the plate body 36 to the article W side are provided, and the end side Lb of the label L is brought into contact with the article W. When the plate bodies 36 come into contact with each other during joining and the plate body 36 receives a reaction force toward the retreating side of the piston 32, the spring 38 is pulled against the urging force of the spring 38, so that it can be elastically contacted. I am doing so.

進退動機構40は、図3乃至図9に示すように、押圧機構30のシリンダ装置31を取付け板35を介して上下動させるエアシリンダ装置41を備え、押圧体34が後退した状態で物品Wの側面に対峙する進出位置X(図6)に進出させるとともに、進出位置Xにおいて押圧体34が前進した際、押圧体34の前進状態のまま進出位置Xから退出位置Y(図3乃至図5,図9)に退出させ、この退出過程(図7及び図8)で押圧体34を物品Wの側面に摺接させかつラベルLの端部側Lbに摺接させる。エアシリンダ装置41は、基板2下部の支持板42に取付けられている。   As shown in FIGS. 3 to 9, the advance / retreat mechanism 40 includes an air cylinder device 41 that moves the cylinder device 31 of the pressing mechanism 30 up and down via the mounting plate 35, and the article W with the pressing body 34 retracted. When the pressing body 34 advances at the advance position X (FIG. 6), the retracted position Y (FIGS. 3 to 5) is moved from the advanced position X while the pressing body 34 is in the advanced state. , FIG. 9), and in this withdrawal process (FIGS. 7 and 8), the pressing body 34 is brought into sliding contact with the side surface of the article W and is brought into sliding contact with the end portion side Lb of the label L. The air cylinder device 41 is attached to a support plate 42 below the substrate 2.

取付け板35には、図3乃至図9に示すように、進退動機構40によるシリンダ装置41の進出位置XにおいてラベルLの互いに対面する両端部側Lb間に臨み、進出位置Xから退出位置Yへの退出の際、ラベルLの互いに対面する両端部側Lb間から退避するシャフト状の仕切り部材43が設けられている。仕切り部材43は、例えばテフロンなどの樹脂製であり、押圧体34の押圧によらないでラベルLの端部側Lbが、静電気などで勝手に接合してしまう事態を防止する。   As shown in FIGS. 3 to 9, the mounting plate 35 faces the opposite ends Lb of the label L at the advance position X of the cylinder device 41 by the advance / retreat mechanism 40, and moves from the advance position X to the exit position Y. A shaft-shaped partition member 43 that is retracted from between both ends Lb of the label L facing each other is provided. The partition member 43 is made of a resin such as Teflon, for example, and prevents the end portion Lb of the label L from being arbitrarily joined due to static electricity or the like without being pressed by the pressing body 34.

また、本装置においては、図1,図2乃至図6に示すように、ラベル中央貼付部20により貼付されたラベルLの両端部側Lbを押圧体34に対峙できるように、ラベルLの両端部側Lbを物品Wに対する巻掛け方向に折り曲げる折り曲げ機構50が設けられている。折り曲げ機構50は、物品Wの上側から物品Wに嵌入して物品Wを弾持可能であり(図5参照)、この弾持する過程でラベルLを折り曲げてラベルLの両端部側Lb同士を対面させ、これにより、押圧体34に対峙させるヘッド51と、ヘッド51を上下動させるエアシリンダ装置からなる上下駆動部52と、ヘッド51及び上下駆動部52をラベル中央貼付部20の吸着ヘッド25の進出時に退避させ、ラベル中央貼付部20の吸着ヘッド25の後退時に物品Wの上側に進出させる進退駆動部53とを備えて構成されている。進退駆動部53は、基板2上に設けられ上下駆動部52を保持する保持部材54を進退動させるスライダ55と、保持部材54を駆動するエアシリンダ装置56から構成されている。   Further, in this apparatus, as shown in FIGS. 1, 2 to 6, both ends of the label L are arranged so that both end portions Lb of the label L attached by the label center attaching portion 20 can be opposed to the pressing body 34. A bending mechanism 50 is provided for bending the part side Lb in the winding direction around the article W. The folding mechanism 50 can be inserted into the article W from above the article W and can hold the article W (see FIG. 5), and the label L is bent during the holding process so that both end portions Lb of the label L are connected to each other. The head 51 that faces the pressing body 34, the vertical drive unit 52 that includes the air cylinder device that moves the head 51 up and down, and the head 51 and the vertical drive unit 52 are attached to the suction head 25 of the label center pasting unit 20. And an advancing / retracting drive unit 53 that retracts when the suction head 25 of the label center pasting unit 20 moves backward and moves upward to the upper side of the article W. The advancing / retracting drive unit 53 includes a slider 55 that is provided on the substrate 2 and moves the holding member 54 that holds the vertical drive unit 52 forward and backward, and an air cylinder device 56 that drives the holding member 54.

図1に示すように、符号60は本装置の制御部であり、足踏みスイッチ61からの信号をスタート信号として、所定のタイミングで、クランパ14のエアシリンダ装置17を作動させる機能、ラベル中央貼付部20を作動させる機能、押圧機構30のエアシリンダ装置31を作動させる機能、進退動機構40のエアシリンダ装置41を作動させる機能、折り曲げ機構50の上下駆動部52及び進退駆動部53を作動させる機能等を備えて構成されている。   As shown in FIG. 1, reference numeral 60 denotes a control unit of the apparatus, and a function for operating the air cylinder device 17 of the clamper 14 at a predetermined timing using a signal from the foot switch 61 as a start signal, a label center pasting unit 20, the function of operating the air cylinder device 31 of the pressing mechanism 30, the function of operating the air cylinder device 41 of the advance / retreat mechanism 40, the function of operating the vertical drive unit 52 and the advance / retreat drive unit 53 of the bending mechanism 50. Etc. are provided.

従って、この実施の形態に係るラベル貼付装置によって、物品WにラベルLを貼付するときは、先ず、図2及び図3に示すように、物品Wを支持部10の支持ブロック12に支持する。この場合、物品Wの一端部を位置決めブロック13に衝止させ、支持ブロック12に載置する。
この状態で、足踏みスイッチ61を押す。これにより、図3に示すように、クランパ14が作動し、押えアーム15が回動して物品Wを支持ブロック12にに対して押え、クランプする(図10も参照)。
Therefore, when the label L is stuck on the article W by the label sticking apparatus according to this embodiment, first, the article W is supported on the support block 12 of the support portion 10 as shown in FIGS. In this case, one end of the article W is stopped by the positioning block 13 and placed on the support block 12.
In this state, the foot switch 61 is pressed. Thereby, as shown in FIG. 3, the clamper 14 is operated, and the presser arm 15 rotates to press and clamp the article W against the support block 12 (see also FIG. 10).

次に、図4に示すように、ラベル中央貼付部20が作動する。この場合、供給リール22から繰り出されプリンタ23で印字されたラベルLを吸着ヘッド25が吸着し、吸着ヘッド25が下動することでラベルLを物品Wの頂部に貼付する。その後、吸着ヘッド25は上動して後退する。   Next, as shown in FIG. 4, the label center sticking part 20 operates. In this case, the suction head 25 sucks the label L fed from the supply reel 22 and printed by the printer 23, and the suction head 25 moves downward to stick the label L on the top of the article W. Thereafter, the suction head 25 moves upward and retracts.

それから、図5に示すように、折り曲げ機構50が作動する。この場合、先ず、ラベル中央貼付部20の吸着ヘッド25の後退時に、進退駆動部53が作動して、物品Wの上側にヘッド51を進出させる。次に、上下駆動部52が作動してヘッド51を下動させる。これにより、ヘッド51が物品Wの上側から物品Wに嵌入して物品Wを弾持するが、この弾持する過程でラベルLを折り曲げてラベルLの両端部側Lb同士を対面させ、これにより、押圧体34に対峙できるようにする。その後、図6に示すように、上下駆動部52が作動してヘッド51を上動させ、進退駆動部53が作動してヘッド51を後退させる。   Then, as shown in FIG. 5, the bending mechanism 50 operates. In this case, first, when the suction head 25 of the label center pasting part 20 is retracted, the advance / retreat drive part 53 is operated to advance the head 51 above the article W. Next, the vertical drive unit 52 operates to move the head 51 downward. As a result, the head 51 fits into the article W from above the article W and holds the article W, but in the process of holding the head, the label L is bent so that both end portions Lb of the label L face each other. The pressing body 34 can be confronted. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 6, the vertical drive unit 52 operates to move the head 51 upward, and the advance / retreat drive unit 53 operates to retract the head 51.

次に、図6に示すように、進退動機構40が作動し、シリンダ装置31を押圧体34が後退した状態で物品Wの側面に対峙する進出位置Xに進出させる。この場合、仕切り部材43も進出させられ、ラベルLの互いに対面する両端部側Lb間に臨む。これにより、仕切り部材43があるので、ラベルLの端部側Lbが、静電気などで勝手に接合してしまう事態が防止され、ラベルLが曲がって接合されたり、位置ずれして接合されるなどの支障が防止される。   Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the advance / retreat mechanism 40 is operated, and the cylinder device 31 is advanced to the advance position X facing the side surface of the article W with the pressing body 34 retracted. In this case, the partition member 43 is also advanced and faces between the opposite ends Lb of the label L facing each other. Thereby, since there is the partition member 43, the situation where the end portion Lb of the label L is joined without permission due to static electricity or the like is prevented, and the label L is bent or joined with a misalignment. Can be prevented.

この状態で、図7に示すように、押圧機構30のシリンダ装置31がピストン32を前進させる。これにより、押圧体34が前進しラベルLの表側から物品Wの側面に当接する(図7中2点鎖線)。この場合、押圧体34である板体36の先端36aが弾接機構37により弾接する。また、折り曲げ機構50により、ラベルLの端部側Lbが押圧体34に対峙できるように位置させられているので、押圧体34がラベルLの裏面にくっついてしまうような事態が防止される。   In this state, as shown in FIG. 7, the cylinder device 31 of the pressing mechanism 30 advances the piston 32. Thereby, the pressing body 34 advances and contacts the side surface of the article W from the front side of the label L (two-dot chain line in FIG. 7). In this case, the tip 36 a of the plate body 36 which is the pressing body 34 is elastically contacted by the elastic contact mechanism 37. In addition, since the end portion Lb of the label L is positioned so as to face the pressing body 34 by the bending mechanism 50, a situation in which the pressing body 34 sticks to the back surface of the label L is prevented.

そして、図7及び図8に示すように、進退動機構40が作動し、押圧体34の前進状態のままシリンダ装置を進出位置Xから退出位置Yに退出させる。この退出過程では、仕切り部材43がラベルLの互いに対面する両端部側Lb間から退避していき、また、押圧体34は前進させられているとともに物品Wの側面に弾接しているので、押圧体34は物品Wの側面に摺接させられ、かつ、ラベルLの端部側Lbに摺接させられる。これにより、ラベルLは、押圧体34の摺接移動により物品Wの側面に押圧されるので、この物品Wの側面に確実に貼付されるとともに、押圧体34が物品Wの側面を離れると今度はラベルLの端部側Lb同士が押圧体34の摺接移動により押圧されるので、ラベルLの端部側Lb同士が確実に接合される。
この場合、押圧体34は板体36であり、板体36の先端36aがラベルLに当接するので、板体36の先端36aの略線接触によりラベルLが押さえられることになり、そのため、貼付が確実に行なわれていく。特に、板体36の先端36aが線状なので、ラベルLの端部側Lb同士の接合始点Lc(図8及び図9)を良く押えることができ、この点で確実にラベルLを巻掛けて貼付することができるようになる。
Then, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the advance / retreat mechanism 40 operates, and the cylinder device is retracted from the advanced position X to the retracted position Y while the pressing body 34 is in the advanced state. In this withdrawal process, the partition member 43 is retracted from between the opposite ends Lb of the label L, and the pressing body 34 is advanced and elastically contacts the side surface of the article W. The body 34 is brought into sliding contact with the side surface of the article W and is brought into sliding contact with the end portion side Lb of the label L. Thereby, since the label L is pressed against the side surface of the article W by the sliding movement of the pressing body 34, the label L is surely attached to the side surface of the article W, and this time, when the pressing body 34 leaves the side surface of the article W. Since the end portions Lb of the label L are pressed by the sliding movement of the pressing body 34, the end portions Lb of the label L are reliably joined.
In this case, the pressing body 34 is a plate body 36, and the tip 36a of the plate body 36 abuts on the label L. Therefore, the label L is pressed by the substantially line contact of the tip 36a of the plate body 36. Will surely be carried out. In particular, since the front end 36a of the plate body 36 is linear, the joining start point Lc (FIGS. 8 and 9) between the end portions Lb of the label L can be pressed well, and the label L can be securely wound at this point. It can be pasted.

最後に、図9に示すように、押圧機構30のシリンダ装置31が退出位置Yに至ると、シリンダ装置31がピストン32を後退させる。そして、図10に示すように、クランパ14が作動し、押えアーム15が回動して開になり、物品Wを支持ブロック12から取り出し可能になる。この状態で、物品Wを支持部10から取出す。
このようにして、順次、物品WにラベルLを貼付していく。
Finally, as shown in FIG. 9, when the cylinder device 31 of the pressing mechanism 30 reaches the retracted position Y, the cylinder device 31 retracts the piston 32. Then, as shown in FIG. 10, the clamper 14 is operated, the presser arm 15 is rotated and opened, and the article W can be taken out from the support block 12. In this state, the article W is taken out from the support portion 10.
In this way, the labels L are sequentially attached to the article W.

このようなラベルLの貼付においては、物品Wを回転させることなく、支持部10に支持させるだけでラベルLが貼付されるので、ラベル貼付作業がきわめて容易に行われる。そのため、物品Wを回転させることなく、所謂「耳」付のラベルLの貼付を行なう自動化が実現された。また、物品Wを回転させることなくラベルLが貼付されるので、パイプや棒材のように長尺の物品Wに容易にラベルLを貼付でき、特に、物品Wが曲がっているものでも容易にラベルLを貼付できることから、汎用性が増加させられる。   In attaching such a label L, the label L is attached only by supporting the article W without rotating the article W, so that the label attaching operation is very easily performed. For this reason, the automation of applying the label L with the so-called “ear” without rotating the article W has been realized. Moreover, since the label L is affixed without rotating the article W, the label L can be easily affixed to a long article W such as a pipe or a bar, and in particular, even if the article W is bent. Since the label L can be affixed, versatility is increased.

また、本実施の形態では、物品Wとしては種々の太さ(外径)のものに適用できる。即ち、支持部10の支持ブロック12は、断面V字形をしているので、種々の太さの物品Wを支持できるとともに、押圧機構30は押圧体34をエアシリンダ装置31で押圧し、押圧体34は弾接させられるので、太さが異なっても押圧することができ、そのため、種々の太さの物品WにラベルLを貼付できる。そのため、太さに合わせた特別の設定をしなくてもある程度対応できることから、作業が容易になり、また、汎用性も増加させられる。   Moreover, in this Embodiment, it can apply to the thing of various thickness (outer diameter) as the goods W. That is, since the support block 12 of the support portion 10 has a V-shaped cross section, it can support articles W of various thicknesses, and the pressing mechanism 30 presses the pressing body 34 with the air cylinder device 31 and presses the pressing body. Since 34 is elastically contacted, it can be pressed even if the thickness is different. Therefore, the label L can be attached to the articles W of various thicknesses. Therefore, it can be handled to some extent without special setting according to the thickness, so that the work becomes easy and versatility can be increased.

尚、上記実施の形態では、物品Wとして断面が円形のものに適用したが、必ずしもこれに限定されるものではなく、断面六角形等の多角形のもの、あるいは、断面楕円形のものなど種々の形状の物品に適用できることは勿論である。
また、上記実施の形態においては、折り曲げ機構50を設け、ラベルLの端部側Lbが押圧体34に対峙できるようにしたが、押圧機構30のシリンダ装置31の設置を変えてピストン32の進出方向を変えれば、ラベル中央貼付部20が貼付したラベルLの状態においてラベルLの両端部側Laに押圧体34に対峙させてこれを押圧することができ、その場合には、必ずしも、折り曲げ機構50を設けなくても良い。
In the above embodiment, the article W is applied to a product having a circular cross section. However, the present invention is not necessarily limited to this, and various items such as a polygonal shape such as a hexagonal cross section or an elliptical cross section may be used. Of course, the present invention can be applied to an article having the shape of
In the above embodiment, the bending mechanism 50 is provided so that the end Lb of the label L can be opposed to the pressing body 34. However, the piston 32 is advanced by changing the installation of the cylinder device 31 of the pressing mechanism 30. If the direction is changed, in the state of the label L affixed by the label center affixing portion 20, the both ends La of the label L can be opposed to the pressing body 34 and pressed, and in this case, the bending mechanism is not necessarily required. 50 may not be provided.
