Description

  The present invention relates to a label mounting system for mounting a label generated by cutting from a long label base material on the surface of a member to be mounted (for example, a container such as a PET bottle).

  FIG. 16 is a schematic diagram of a conventional label mounting system (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

Japanese Patent No. 3437077

  In this label mounting system, for example, a shrink label representing the name of a beverage or the like injected into the bottle is mounted on the surface of a PET bottle. The label mounting system includes a bottle supply device 91 for supplying a bottle B to a label mounting device 92, which will be described later, and a label mounting device 92 for mounting a label L on the bottle B supplied by the bottle supply device 91. A label base material transport device 93 that feeds out the long label base material S and supplies it to a label generation device to be described later, and a label (not shown) that cuts the long label base material S to generate a single label L A generation device, a label conveyance device (not shown) that conveys the label L generated by the label generation device while adsorbing the label L, a label delivery device 94 that receives the label L from the label conveyance device and delivers it to the label mounting device 92, It is mainly constituted by a bottle transport device 95 for transporting the bottle B to which the label L is attached to the downstream process.

  16 is a plan view. In FIG. 16, the label base material S transported in the substantially horizontal direction by the label base material transport device 93 is transported to the label delivery device 94 from the direction perpendicular to the paper surface. It has a configuration. A folding device (not shown) is provided in the middle of the supply path through which the label base material S is supplied. This folding device is a sheet-like label base material fed out from the base material feeding portion 96 (see FIG. 16) in order to make the label L cylindrical and easy to open when the label L is attached to the bottle B. By folding S, the folding position is changed.

  According to this label mounting system, the label base material S fed out by the label base material transport device 93 is cut by the label generation device and generated as a label L. The generated labels L are sequentially transported downward by the label transport device, and sequentially delivered to the label mounting device 92 by the label delivery device 94. The label L delivered to the label mounting device 92 is mounted on the bottle B supplied to the bottle supply device 91. The bottle B with the label L attached is conveyed from the label attaching device 92 to the downstream process by the bottle conveying device 95.

  In this label mounting system, the label generating device performs labeling at a preset cutting timing with reference to the timing at which a plurality of bottles B are supplied to the label mounting start position K2 (see FIG. 16) by the label mounting device 92, respectively. The substrate S is repeatedly cut. If the timing at which the bottle B is supplied to the label mounting start position K2 and the timing at which the label base material S is cut are shifted, the position of the label L mounted on the bottle B is shifted from the normal position. become. In this label mounting system, when the operation by the system is started, a setting operation for adjusting the timing is performed.

  The positional deviation of the label L attached to the bottle B appears when the label delivery device 94 receives the label L at the label delivery position K6 (see FIG. 16), and the operator confirms that to move the bottle L. The positional deviation of the label L attached to B can be recognized.

  The label delivery device 94 includes a plurality of take-up members 94A for sucking and holding the label L, and a rotary shaft 94B for supporting them radially, and the take-up member 94A is shown in FIG. 17 (a). And a base portion 94a extending in the vertical direction and a plurality of arm portions 94b extending in the left-right direction from the base portion 94a. The take-up member 94A has a suction port 94c connected to a suction device (not shown) on the surface thereof.

  The rotation shaft 94B of the label delivery device 94 is connected to the main shaft 92A of the label mounting device 92 via a gear (not shown), and is rotated in synchronization with the main shaft 92A. The take-up member 94A is moved in a substantially horizontal direction when the rotary shaft 94B is driven to rotate, and as shown in FIG. 17 (a), the label L transported by the label transport device at the label delivery position K6. Receive sequentially. Then, the take-up member 94A conveys the label L received at the label delivery position K6 while being sucked by the suction force of the suction device.

  Here, the timing at which the label L is transported to the label delivery position K6 by the label transport device and the timing at which the label L is received by the take-up member 94A are normally set to coincide. That is, the take-up member 94A sequentially receives the labels L at the timing when the labels L are transported to the label delivery position K6 by the label transport device. When the timings coincide with each other, as shown in FIG. 17A, when the take-up member 46 receives the label L, the uppermost end of the take-up member 94A coincides with the upper end of the label L.

  FIG. 18 is a diagram schematically showing a connection configuration of main devices of a conventional label mounting system. According to this figure, the main shaft 92 </ b> A of the bottle mounting device 92 is connected to the host controller 97 and is driven to rotate by the host controller 97. A pulse encoder 98 is connected to a rotary shaft 94B that is driven to rotate together with the main shaft 92A. As shown in FIG. 19, the pulse encoder 98 is a predetermined reference pulse in a period T from the time when one bottle B is transported by the bottle mounting device 92 to the position of the previous bottle B from the current position. The group (for example, 5000 pulses) is output to the controller 99. The control device 99 controls the rotation of the rotary blade 100 for cutting the label base material S provided in the label generation device based on the reference pulse group.

  The timing at which the label substrate S is cut by the rotary blade is set by the operator setting and inputting via the device 101 (hereinafter simply referred to as “varicam 101”) called a variable cam switch. Can do. The varicam 101 receives the output from the pulse encoder and, as shown in FIG. 19, when the period T defined by the reference pulse group is one period, only an appropriate continuous period Ta of the one period is included. Only the signal to turn on is given to the control device 61. The variable cam 101 includes an operation unit 101a that allows an operator to input an operation. The operator can input the operation period 101a through the operation unit 101a to set the ON period Ta.

  The control device 99 recognizes the rising timing TA of the ON signal from the varicam 101 as the timing when the label generating device cuts the label base material S, and controls the rotation of the rotary blade 100. Thereby, the label generating apparatus cuts the label base material S at the rising edge of the ON signal shown in FIG.

  At the start of operation of the system, as described above, the label generating device cuts the label base material S based on the timing at which the plurality of bottles B are supplied to the label mounting start position K2 by the label mounting device 92, respectively. It is necessary to set the timing, and the operator performs the setting using the varicam 101 so that the mounting position of the label L with respect to the bottle B is not displaced.

  At this time, the operator confirms the positional relationship between the label L and the take-up member 94A at the label delivery position K6 and adjusts the deviation. For example, FIG. 17B shows a case where the receiving timing of the label L by the take-up member 94A is delayed because the label L is conveyed by the label conveying device early. On the other hand, FIG. 17C shows a case where the receiving timing of the label L by the take-up member 94A is early because the transport of the label L by the label transport device is delayed. As described above, at the start of operation of the system, there may be a deviation in the receiving timing of the label L by the take-up member 94A at the label delivery position K6. This is the timing of cutting the label base material S by the label generating device. However, this is because the bottle B is shifted from the timing at which the bottle B is supplied to the label mounting start position K2.

  Conventionally, as described above, the output timing of the ON signal output from the varicam 101 is adjusted by operating from the operation unit 101a so that the reception timing of the label L by the take-up member 94A is a regular timing. It was like that. However, with this adjustment method, it was necessary to check each time the deviation occurred each time the adjustment was made. Therefore, it is very time-consuming and requires time and labor.

  The present invention has been conceived under the circumstances described above, and an object thereof is to provide a label mounting system capable of easily adjusting the label receiving timing by the take-up member.

  In order to solve the above problems, the present invention takes the following technical means.

  A label mounting system according to the present invention includes a mounted member supplying means for sequentially supplying a plurality of mounted members arranged at predetermined intervals to a predetermined label mounting start position, and a label base having a plurality of labels arranged in a row. The label base material transport means for transporting the material, and the label base material transported by the label base material transport means, with reference to the timing at which the plurality of mounted members are respectively supplied to the label mounting start positions, in advance Label generating means for generating a label for each mounted member by repeatedly cutting at a predetermined cutting timing set, and label transport for sucking and transporting each label generated by the label generating means to a predetermined position downstream And the label in synchronism with the timing at which each mounted member is supplied to the label mounting start position by the mounted member supply unit. Receiving each label conveyed by the conveying means at the predetermined position and sequentially conveying the label to the label mounting start position; receiving each label conveyed by the label receiving means at the label mounting start position; In a label mounting system comprising: a label mounting unit that performs mounting processing on the mounted members that are sequentially supplied to the label mounting start position by the mounting member supply unit, the timing at which each label is transported to the predetermined position Information input means for inputting predetermined information for correcting a shift between the receiving means and the receiving timing of the label at the predetermined position, and correction of the cutting timing based on the information input by the information input means A correction amount generating means for generating an amount, and a correction amount generated by the correction amount generating means. Ku is characterized by comprising a cutting timing correction means for correcting the predetermined cutting timing by subtracting (claim 1).

  According to this structure, the elongate label base material conveyed by the label base material conveyance means is cut into a plurality of labels by being cut at a predetermined position by the label generation means. The generated label is conveyed to a predetermined position while being attracted by the label conveying means. Here, when there is a deviation between the timing at which each label is conveyed to a predetermined position and the receipt timing of the label at a predetermined position of the receiving means, predetermined information for correcting the deviation is input by the information input means. Then, the correction amount of the cutting timing is generated based on the input information by the correction amount generation means. Then, the cutting timing correction unit corrects the predetermined cutting timing by adding or subtracting the correction amount generated by the correction amount generation unit. Therefore, for example, if the information input means is an operation means for inputting predetermined information by the user's operation (Claim 2), the predetermined cutting timing is corrected by the user's operation input. As in the configuration, the user does not need to perform time-consuming and labor-intensive work using the varicam, and can easily correct the predetermined cutting timing.

  In the label mounting system, the predetermined information input by the operation unit may be a positional deviation amount of the label with respect to the predetermined position at a timing when the label receiving unit receives the label.

  In the label mounting system, the information input unit includes a mounted member supply speed detection unit that detects a supply speed of the mounted member to the label mounting start position by the mounted member supply unit, and the mounted member. Preferably, the apparatus includes an input unit that inputs the supply speed of the mounted member detected by the supply speed detection unit to the correction amount generation unit as information for correcting the timing shift.

  Further, in the label mounting system, the correction amount generation unit includes a storage unit that stores a table for converting a preset supply speed of the mounted member into a correction amount of the cutting timing, and from the input unit The correction amount of the cutting timing may be generated using the input supply speed of the mounted member and the table (Claim 5).

  Further, in the label mounting system, the storage unit stores a plurality of tables whose characteristics for converting the supply speed of the mounted member into the correction amount of the cutting timing are different depending on the size of the label, and the correction amount The generating means may change the correction amount of the cutting timing by using the table corresponding to the label according to the size of the label.

  The host controller 60 can change the rotation speeds of the spindle motor 62 and the conveyance motors 64 and 66, and the supply speed of the bottle B can be changed by changing these rotation speeds. The rotating shaft 47 of the label delivery device 6 is rotated in conjunction with the main shaft 16 rotated by the main shaft motor 62. Therefore, when the rotational speed of the main shaft 16 is changed by the host controller 60, the rotating shaft 47 is synchronized with it. The rotational speed of 47 also changes.

  The control device 61 includes a microcomputer (not shown), and based on a command from the host control device 60 and an operation program stored in advance, the feed roller 23 of the label base material transport device 3 and the rotary blade of the label generation device 4 28 and each operation of the feed belt 32 of the label conveying device 5 is controlled. The control device 61 includes a memory (not shown) for storing various data.

  A pulse encoder 70 connected to the rotary shaft 47 is connected to the control device 61. By inputting the detection signal of the pulse encoder 70, the rotational speed of the take-up member 46 of the label delivery device 6 is always grasped. ing. A varicam 101 is connected to the control device 61, and an output signal from the varicam 101 is input as necessary.

  The control device 61 is connected to a servo amplifier 69 that controls a feed motor 68 for rotationally driving the feed roller 23. When the control device 61 outputs a control signal for rotating the feed roller 23 to the servo amplifier 69, a drive signal is output from the servo amplifier 69 to the feed motor 68, whereby the feed motor 68 is rotationally driven. The feed roller 23 rotates. Further, a detection signal of an encoder (not shown) attached to the feed motor 68 is input to the control device 61 via a servo amplifier 69.

  A servo amplifier 72 that controls a rotary blade motor 71 for rotationally driving the rotary blade 28 is connected to the control device 61. When the control device 61 outputs a control signal for rotating the rotary blade 28 to the servo amplifier 72, a drive signal is output from the servo amplifier 72 to the rotary blade motor 71, whereby the rotary blade motor 71 rotates. When driven, the rotary blade 28 rotates. Further, a detection signal of an encoder (not shown) attached to the rotary blade motor 71 is input to the control device 61 via a servo amplifier 72.

  The controller 61 is connected to a servo amplifier 74 that controls a feed motor 73 for rotationally driving the pulley 31 around which the feed belt 32 is stretched. When the control device 61 outputs a control signal for rotating the pulley 31 to the servo amplifier 74, a drive signal is output from the servo amplifier 74 to the feed motor 73, whereby the feed motor 73 is rotationally driven. The pulley 31 rotates and the feed belt 32 is circulated. Further, a pulse encoder 76 attached to the feed motor 73 is connected to the control device 61, and a detection signal of the pulse encoder 76 is input via a servo amplifier 74.

  The control device 61 in the present embodiment is configured such that the timing at which the label L is transported to the label delivery position K6 by the label transport device 5 and the timing at which the label L is received at the label delivery position K6 by the take-up member 46 are different. (See FIGS. 17B and 17C), a correction value for the timing of cutting the label base material S by the rotary blade 28 is generated based on an input operation by an operator using the operation display device 75 described later. The timing deviation is corrected based on the correction value so that the label L is received by the take-up member 46 at regular timing. Details of this control will be described later.

  The control device 61 is connected to an operation display device 75 for an operator to perform various settings related to the label mounting operation and to display the state of the label mounting operation. In the operation display device 75, a portion serving as an operation display screen is configured by a so-called touch panel and a display unit provided on the back surface of the touch panel (both not shown). For example, an operator performs a predetermined operation through the touch panel. As a result, an operation signal corresponding to that is output to the control device 61. Further, display data from the control device 61 is input to the operation display device 75, and display contents corresponding to the display data are displayed on the display unit.

  In the present embodiment, when the timing at which the label L is transported to the label delivery position K6 by the label transport device 5 is different from the timing at which the label L is received at the label delivery position K6 by the take-up member 46, this operation display The deviation can be corrected by an operation input by an operator using the device 75.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of a screen displayed on the display unit of the operation display device 75. The operation display device 75 can perform an input operation for correcting a shift in the conveyance timing of the label L at the label delivery position K6 while the system is stopped, and can also perform the input operation while the system is operating. It is said that.

  On the display screen of the operation display device 75, as shown in FIG. 8, a correction value display unit for displaying the correction value in order to correct the shift in the conveyance timing of the label L at the label delivery position K6 during the system stop. 75a (for example, 10 mm is preset as a default value), an input confirmation switch 75b for confirming the input of the correction value displayed on the correction value display section 75a, and the correction value display section 75a. A change cancel switch 75c for returning the correction value to the default value, a function selection switch 75d for selecting various functions, and a variable cam function switch 75e for enabling the function of the variable cam 101 described in the background section. And are provided.

  For example, as shown in FIGS. 17B and 17C, when the label L is shifted downward or upward at the label delivery position K6, the dimension displayed on the correction value display portion 75a is corrected. This is the dimension that the operator corrects to return to the reference position.

  While the system is stopped, the operator changes the default value displayed on the correction value display section 75a to an arbitrary value, and depresses the input confirmation switch 75b, thereby shifting the conveyance timing of the label L at the label delivery position K6. Can be corrected. Here, as shown in FIG. 9, a plurality of labels L are conveyed on the feed belt 32, but the length D of the pitch between the label L and the next label L ′ (hereinafter referred to as “FB pitch”). Is, for example, 255 mm. Therefore, in the correction value display section 75a, setting correction input is possible within a range of ± 127.5 mm with reference to the center of the length D of the FB pitch.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 8, the display screen of the operation display device 75 is provided with an upper switch 75f and a lower switch 75g for correcting a shift of the label L at the label delivery position K6 during system operation. Yes.

  When the operator presses the upper switch 75f once while the system is operating, the label L is shifted upward by a predetermined length (for example, 0.2 mm), and the deviation of the transport timing of the label L at the label delivery position K6 is corrected. can do. Further, when the operator depresses the lower switch 75g once, the label L is shifted downward by a predetermined length (for example, 0.2 mm), and the shift in the transport timing of the label L at the label delivery position K6 can be corrected. it can. The predetermined length is not limited to the above value (0.2 mm).

  The dimensions corrected by pressing the upper switch 75f or the lower switch 75g are such that, for example, as shown in FIGS. 17 (b) and 17 (c), the label L is shifted downward or upward at the label delivery position K6. If it is, it is a dimension for returning the deviation to the reference position.

  Returning to FIG. 7, the controller 61 is connected to a suction device 77 for sucking and holding the label L on the feed belt 32. The suction device 77 is controlled by a control signal from the control device 61.

  A suction device 78 for the take-up member 46 to suck the label L is connected to the control device 61. The suction device 78 is controlled by a control signal from the control device 61.

  Next, the operation of the above configuration will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing the control operation of the control device 61.

  In this label mounting system, as described above, when the shift in the receipt timing of the label L by the take-up member 46 is corrected, it can be corrected while the system is stopped, and can be corrected while the system is operating. And are provided.

  First, an operation for correcting the reception timing of the label L by the take-up member 46 while the system is stopped will be described. Here, when the system is stopped means that the long label substrate S is set in the label mounting system, and the operation is temporarily stopped while the system is operating, and the take-up is performed in the stopped state. It also includes a case where the receiving timing of the label L by the member 46 is corrected.

  When the operation of the label mounting system is started, the worker first performs a temporary operation, and the label L is delivered by the take-up member 46 when the label L is transported to the label delivery position K6 by the label transport device 5. It is confirmed at the label delivery position K6 whether there is a deviation from the timing received at the position K6.

  For example, when it is confirmed that the label L when being delivered at the label delivery position K6 by the take-up member 46 has been displaced downward by about 10 mm (see FIG. 17B), the operator corrects the deviation. Therefore, the correction value is set and input using the correction value display unit 75a of the setting display device 75 so that the label L is positioned upward by about 10 mm when received by the take-up member 46. Specifically, +10 mm (positive value) is input as a correction value to the correction value display portion 75a.

  The control device 61 monitors whether or not a correction value is input from the correction value display unit 75a by the operator (S1). If it is determined that the correction value has been input (S1: YES), the control device 61 has been input. Based on the correction value, the correction amount of the timing for cutting the label base material S in the label generating device 4 is calculated (S2). Specifically, the control device 61 performs the calculation described below.

  When the label L moves by FB pitch D on the feed belt 32, the feed motor 73 rotates three times, for example. When the number of pulses output from the pulse encoder 76 connected to the feed motor 73 to the control device 61 per rotation of the feed motor 73 is N (for example, 8192 pulses), the pulses are output per FB pitch. The number is 3 × N (about 24576 pulses).

  If an operator sets and inputs the correction value so as to be positioned, for example, 10 mm above, the number of pulses X in the correction value set and input is 24576 pulses × when the length D of the FB pitch is 255 mm, for example. It is determined by 10 mm / 255 mm. This pulse number X is the correction amount of the timing for cutting the label substrate S.

  Of the output pulses from the pulse encoder 76 of the feed motor 73, the control device 61 presets a reference pulse as a timing for cutting the label substrate S by the rotary blade 28.

  Since the correction value is a positive value when the operation of the system is started (S3: YES), the control device 61 is set as the current cutting timing as shown in FIGS. 11 (a) and 11 (b). The number X of pulses as a correction amount is added to the reference pulse being set (S4), and a pulse Pa obtained by the addition is newly set as a pulse at the cutting timing. That is, the control device 61 delays the rotation of the rotary blade motor 71 so that the label base material S is cut by the rotary blade 28 at the timing when the pulse Pa newly set as the cutting timing is output (S5).

  On the other hand, for example, when it is confirmed that the label L when being delivered at the label delivery position K6 by the take-up member 46 has been displaced upward by about 10 mm (see FIG. 17 (c)), the operator In order to correct, the correction value is set and input via the correction value display portion 75a so that the label L is positioned downward by about 10 mm when received by the take-up member 46. Specifically, -10 mm (negative value) is input as a correction value to the correction value display portion 75a.

  The control device 61 calculates the pulse number X as the correction amount by a method similar to the above calculation method by setting the correction value by the operator. In this case, since the correction value is a negative value (S3: NO), as shown in FIGS. 11 (a) and 11 (c), as a correction amount with respect to the reference pulse set as the current cutting timing. Is subtracted (S6), and the pulse Pb obtained by the subtraction is newly set as a pulse at the cutting timing.

  Here, when the correction amount is a negative value, the cutting timing is advanced and the label base material S is cut by the rotary blade 28. However, the rotary blade motor 71 is made faster than the normal rotation speed. The rotational speed is not increased at a stroke by the amount of the cutting timing, but the cutting timing is advanced in three stages, for example.

  Specifically, the rotational speed of the rotary motor 71 is increased by the number of pulses that is 1/3 of the target cutting timing at the first rotation of the rotary blade 28, and the target cutting timing at the second rotation of the rotary blade 28. The rotational speed of the rotary motor 71 is increased by the number of 2/3 pulses, and the rotational speed of the rotary motor 71 is increased by the remaining 1/3 of the target cutting timing at the third rotation of the rotary blade 28. Try to be early. In this way, the label L can be corrected to the proper label delivery position K6 without imposing an excessive burden on the rotary motor 71. In addition, the ratio which advances cutting | disconnection timing in steps is not restricted to the said 1/3.

  As described above, the timing at which each label L is conveyed to the original label delivery position K6 by the feed belt 32 and the receipt timing of the label L at the label delivery position K6 by the take-up member 46, which are input from the operation display device 75. As the information for correcting the deviation, a correction amount (number of pulses X) of timing for cutting the label base material S in the label generating device 4 is obtained by calculation based on information set and inputted from the operation display device 75, The cutting timing can be corrected by adding or subtracting this correction amount to the reference pulse at the timing of cutting the original label substrate S to determine the pulses Pa and Pb at the timing of cutting.

  Accordingly, each label L is delivered to the take-up member 46 at a regular take-up position, and is delivered to the label mounting apparatus 2 by the take-up member 46. Therefore, the label L can be attached to the regular position of the bottle B, and the possibility of generating the bottle B with the label position shifted can be suppressed.

  When the system is stopped, the correction value can be directly set and input using the operation display device 75. As a result, even a relatively large value can be set and input at one time. Compared with the method of approaching the corrected value, it is possible to set and input with ease.

  Conventionally, as described in the background art section, the displacement amount is corrected by the varicam 101. However, according to the above embodiment, the setting input by the varicam 101 is not required. Therefore, the labor of the operator can be greatly reduced.

  Next, an operation for correcting the reception timing of the label L by the take-up member 46 during system operation will be described. If the correction value is directly input while the system is stopped, the label L may be clogged or the label L may be damaged if a relatively large correction value is input due to an operator's setting error or the like. In order to avoid such a problem, during the operation of the system, a minute value is input as a correction value, and the shift amount is corrected gradually.

  Specifically, for example, when it is confirmed that the label L when being delivered at the label delivery position K6 by the take-up member 46 is shifted downward (see FIG. 17B), the operator displays the operation display. In order to correct the deviation via the device 75, the upper switch 75f is pressed.

  The control device 61 performs the same operation as that shown in the flowchart of FIG. That is, when it is determined that the correction value is input from the operation display device 75 by the operator (S1: YES), the control device 61 cuts the label base material S in the label generation device 4 based on the input correction value. A timing correction amount is calculated (S2).

  Here, if the upper switch 75f has been set and input only once, it is predetermined that the upper switch 75f is to be corrected by, for example, +0.2 mm. .2 mm) is obtained by 24576 pulses × 0.2 mm / 255 mm. This pulse number X is the correction amount of the timing for cutting the label substrate S.

  Since the correction amount is a positive value (S3: YES), the control device 61, as shown in FIGS. 11 (a) and 11 (b), with respect to the reference pulse set as the current cutting timing, The number of pulses X as a correction amount is added (S4), and the added pulse is newly set as a pulse at the cutting timing. That is, the control device 61 delays the rotation of the rotary blade motor 71 so that the label base material S is cut by the rotary blade 28 at the timing when the pulse Pa newly set as the cutting timing is output (S5).

  In this case, even when the correction amount based on the single pressing of the upper switch 75f is added, if the deviation still occurs, the upper switch 75f of the operation display device 75 may be pressed again.

  On the other hand, for example, when it is confirmed that the label L when being delivered at the label delivery position K6 by the take-up member 46 is shifted upward (see FIG. 17C), the operator moves the operation display device 75. In order to correct the deviation, the lower switch 75g is pressed. For example, the lower switch 75g is predetermined to be corrected by −0.2 mm.

  The control device 61 calculates the pulse number X as the correction amount by a method similar to the above calculation method by setting the correction value by the operator. In this case, since the correction amount is a negative value (S3: NO), as shown in FIGS. 11 (a) and 11 (c), the correction amount with respect to the reference pulse set as the current cutting timing. The number of pulses X is subtracted (S6), and the pulse obtained by subtraction is newly set as a pulse at the cutting timing. That is, the control device 61 advances the rotation of the rotary blade motor 71 so that the label base material S is cut by the rotary blade 28 at the timing when a pulse newly set as the cutting timing is output. During the operation of the system, the correction amount that is set and input and corrected is very small, so that the cutting timing is advanced stepwise as in the case of the system being stopped (as in step S7 in FIG. 10). No control is performed.

  In this way, during system operation, the operator can set and input a minute correction value to correct the deviation in the transport timing of the label L at the label delivery position K6. Therefore, it is not necessary to stop the system each time the deviation is corrected, which can contribute to improvement in productivity.

Second Embodiment
In the first embodiment described above, when the receiving timing of the label L by the take-up member 46 at the label delivery position K6 is deviated, the deviation amount is corrected by the input information when the operator inputs the operation. In the second embodiment, if the supply speed of the bottle B by the bottle supply device 1 changes during the system operation, the reception timing of the take-up member 46 at the label delivery position K6 of the label L may be shifted. In such a case, input information is automatically generated to correct the deviation amount.

  That is, the take-up member 46 is rotationally driven by the rotation shaft 47, but the rotation shaft 47 is connected to the main shaft 16 by a gear, and when the rotation speed of the main shaft 16 changes, the rotation speed of the rotation shaft 47 also changes. It is like that. Here, when the bottle B accumulates in the bottle supply path of the bottle supply apparatus 1, the host controller 60 increases the rotation speed of the main shaft 16, that is, increases the supply speed of the bottle B so that the bottle B enters the bottle supply path. I try not to stay. When the rotation speed of the main shaft 16 is increased, the rotation speed of the rotation shaft 47 is increased, and the receiving timing of the label L by the take-up member 46 at the label delivery position K6 is advanced. As shown in FIG. The label L is shifted upward at the position K6.

  That is, the shift amount of the take-up member 46 with respect to the label L at the label delivery position K6 increases substantially proportionally as the rotational speed of the main shaft 16, that is, the supply speed of the bottle B increases, as shown in FIG. Therefore, in the second embodiment, the supply speed of the bottle B is input as input information, and the deviation amount at the label delivery position K6 is corrected accordingly.

  FIG. 13 is a block diagram showing an electrical configuration of the label mounting system according to the second embodiment. According to the figure, a plurality of bottle detection sensors 80a, 80b, 80c (referred to collectively as “bottle detection sensors 80”) are connected to the host control device 61.

  Each bottle detection sensor 80 a, 80 b, 80 c is provided in the vicinity of the bottle supply path of the bottle supply device 1 and detects the supply amount of the bottle B supplied by the bottle supply device 1. Each of the bottle detection sensors 80a, 80b, and 80c has the same configuration, and optically detects the bottle B supplied to the bottle supply path of the bottle supply device 1.

  The bottle detection sensors 80a, 80b, and 80c are arranged in parallel at a predetermined interval from upstream to downstream in the bottle supply path of the bottle supply device 1. These bottle detection sensors 80a, 80b, and 80c detect the approximate staying amount of the bottle B in the bottle supply path, and the host controller 61 adjusts the rotational speed of the main shaft 16 based on the staying amount of the bottle B. I have to.

  That is, for example, when the three bottle detection sensors 80 simultaneously detect the bottle B in a predetermined period, the host controller 61 determines that the amount of bottle B remaining in the bottle supply path is large. For example, when the two bottle detection sensors 80 out of the three bottle detection sensors 80 detect the bottle B in a predetermined period, the host control device 61 determines that the stay amount of the bottle B in the bottle supply path is medium. . Further, for example, when only one bottle detection sensor 80 out of the three bottle detection sensors 80 detects the bottle B in a predetermined period, the host control device 61 has a small amount of bottle B remaining in the bottle supply path. Determine.

  When the host controller 61 determines that the amount of staying in the bottle B is large based on the detection output from these bottle detection sensors 80, the bottle B is set at a higher rotational speed of the spindle 16, that is, the supply speed of the bottle B. Smoothly flow through the bottle supply path of the bottle supply device 1. When it is determined that the staying amount of the bottle B is medium, the supply speed of the bottle B is set to a medium speed. Further, when it is determined that the amount of staying in the bottle B is small, the supply speed of the bottle B is lowered. The supply speed of the bottle B is not limited to three stages of high speed, medium speed, and low speed, but may be divided into more stages.

  Next, the effect | action in the structure of 2nd Embodiment is demonstrated with reference to FIG. FIG. 14 is a flowchart showing the control operation of the control device 61.

  The control device 61 receives the supply rate of the bottle B from the host control device 60 as input information, and constantly monitors whether the supply rate of the bottle B changes (S11). When it is determined that the supply speed of the bottle B has been changed based on the input information from the host control apparatus 60 (S11: YES), the control device 61 acquires a correction amount corresponding to the changed supply speed (S12). .

  Here, in a memory (not shown), the relationship between the supply speed of the bottle B and the correction amount for the shift amount of the take-up member 46 with respect to the label L at the label delivery position K6 is stored in the form of a table in advance. In this case, the correction amount stores a value calculated in advance by the calculation method shown in the first embodiment.

  The control device 61 acquires a correction amount corresponding to the supply speed of the bottle B based on the table stored in the memory. In this case, since the correction amount is always a negative value, the pulse number X as the correction amount is subtracted from the reference pulse set as the current cutting timing (S13), and the subtracted pulse is cut into the cutting timing. A new pulse is set. And the control apparatus 61 advances rotation of the rotary blade motor 71 so that the label base material S may be cut | disconnected by the rotary blade 28 at the timing when the pulse newly set as a cutting timing is output (S14).

  Note that a plurality of relations between the supply speed of the bottle B and the correction amount stored in the form of a table may be stored according to the type of the label L. That is, as shown in FIG. 15, the label L has different types of labels La, Lb, and Lc depending on the size, length, etc., and the supply speed and deviation amount of the bottle B according to each label La, Lb, and Lc. The proportional relationship with is different. In such a case, the correction amount corresponding to the supply speed of the bottle B is stored for each label La, Lb, Lc, and the control device 61 acquires the correction amount corresponding to each label La, Lb, Lc.

  In addition, as described above, the supply rate of the bottle B is obtained by dividing the correction amount into three stages of high speed, medium speed, and low speed, instead of acquiring the correction amount according to the actual supply speed value of the bottle B. May be obtained.
