At this time, the reason for employing the servomotor 56 as the ejector operation means is to make the operation control of the ejector 53 more immediate and accurate compared to the cylinder, and through this, the ampoule (A) is discharged at an ultra-high speed of 400 or more per minute. Even if it is transported, the ampoule of the good product and the ampoule of the defective product can be accurately selected through the ejector 53 and discharged respectively.

The annular engaging portion 53a is concavely formed in the conveying direction of the ampoule A, that is, in the rotational direction of the fourth conveying wheel 24, and in the state in which the ejector 53 is advanced, the annular engaging portion 53a ) crosses the insertion groove of the fourth transfer wheel 24, so that the ampoule of good quality seated in the fourth seating groove G4 is caught by the annular locking part 53a and discharged to the first discharge path 51 guided

At this time, the first discharge path 51 is provided with a conveying member such as a conveyor belt 51a on one or both walls for safe and fast discharge of the ampoule (A), the ampoule on the first discharge path (51) (A) are moved to the non-defective product collection unit 54 by the transfer member to be discharged.

In addition, when a defective product is determined by the label discrimination unit 41 or the label sensor unit 42, the location information of the ampoule (A) is transmitted to the control unit of the ampoule discharge unit 50, and the control unit transmits the defective product Based on the ampoule position information of the (that is, the number of the third seating groove (G3) or the fourth seating groove (G4)) and the conveying speed of the conveying wheels 23 and 24, the number of times the defective product is moved to the first discharge path When the ampoule of the defective product passes through the first discharge path 51 by calculating whether it passes 51 , the ejector 53 is reversed to open the insertion groove of the fourth transfer wheel 24 .

In this way, in the state in which the ejector 53 has moved backward, the ampoule of the defective product is not discharged to the first discharge path 51, but is continuously transported as it is seated in the fourth seating groove G4, and the ampoule of the defective product is transferred to the first discharge path ( 51), the ejector 53 advances again to continue discharging the non-defective ampoule.

At this time, one rotation operation of the servo motor 56 makes the instantaneous forward and backward movement of the ejector 53 accurate and fast, thereby increasing the accuracy of sorting and discharging good-quality ampoules.

The fourth guide bar 57 separates the ampoule (A) from the fourth seating groove (G4) in a shape similar to that of the first to third guide bars 21A, 22A, and 23A, and the second discharge It is provided to extend in the longitudinal direction of the furnace 52 and is provided in the form of being fitted into the insertion groove of the fourth transfer wheel 24 .

Accordingly, the ampoule (A) not discharged by the sorting operation of the ejector (53), that is, the ampoule of the defective product is caught by the fourth guide bar (57) and discharged to the second discharge path (52) to the defective product collection unit (55). It is finally discharged, and the discharged defective products are reattached using a good product label.

In the present invention of this configuration, it is possible to separate a plurality of ampoules (A) and attach a label, and the label is attached by quickly and safely transporting the fragile ampoules (A) through the multi-interlocking wheel 20 without damage. While both label defects and label non-attachment defects are identified, the operation of the ejector 53 using the servo motor 56 can accurately select and discharge the good ampoules and the defective ampoules individually. It is possible to maximize the productivity of the ampoule label system by realizing an ultra-high speed of 400 or more per minute that is differentiated from the device.

In addition, according to the present invention, the ampoule (A) is thrown outward by centrifugal force, etc. during the transfer of the ampoule (A) through each transfer wheel (21), (22), (23) and (24), and may collide with the inner surface of the separation prevention block. , in the case of the ampoule (A), damage or damage such as incontinence may occur because the strength is weak. In particular, in the case of the first, second, and fourth transfer wheels 21, 22, and 24 without the roller 23R for rotating the ampoule, the ampoule (A) is fixed in each of the seating grooves (G1), (G2) and (G4). There is a risk of damage or damage due to the collision of the ampoule (A) because a separate means is not provided.

Accordingly, in the present invention, when the ampoule (A) passes the section of the separation prevention block in the first, second, and fourth transfer wheels 21, 22, and 24, the ampoule (A) is placed in each seating groove (G1) ( G2) (G4) was introduced to the separation prevention means 210 to be in close contact.

As shown in FIG. 7 , the separation preventing means 210 is inside one side wall portion (particularly the guide side wall portion Ga) of the first, second, and fourth seating grooves G1, G2, and G4. A pressure roller 211 axially installed so as to be retractable in and out of the radial direction in a seesaw movement inside the pressure roller 211, but one end of the first, second, and fourth seating grooves G1 (G2) ) (G4) including a detachment prevention bar 220 connected to be retractable and the other end is arranged to be arranged inside the pressure roller 211,

When the ampoules (A) of the first, second, and fourth seating grooves G1, G2, and G4 pass through the separation prevention blocks 21B, 22B, and 24B, the pressure roller 211 is While in contact with the separation prevention blocks 21B, 22B, and 24B, the separation prevention bar 220 is rotated by being pushed inward, so that one end of the separation prevention bar 220 is the first, second, and second 4 It is characterized in that the ampoule (A) is brought into close contact with each of the seating grooves (G1) (G2) (G4) while being drawn into the seating grooves (G1) (G2) (G4) and caught on the ampoule (A).

When describing the fourth transfer wheel 24 of FIG. x on a representative basis, among the side walls of the fourth seating groove G4, the inside of the guide engaging portion arranged on the rotational direction side of the fourth transfer wheel 24 (the upper plate portion ( The rotating shaft 211a of the pressure roller 211 is vertically installed in the space between 24a) and the lower plate part 24b), and the rotating shaft 211a is slidingly coupled to the upper plate part 24a and the lower plate part 24b. The moving groove 200 in the form of a long groove is formed to have a predetermined length inside and outside (in the case of the first transfer wheel 21, the wing portion 21b has a two-stage structure of the upper and lower plates, and the pressure roller 211) can be shortened.).

The separation prevention bar 212 is a seesaw movement of both ends about the rotation shaft 212a, and when one end is rotated to be drawn into the inside, one end does not protrude into the fourth seating groove G4, and one side does not protrude. When the end is rotated to be drawn out, one end protrudes into the fourth seating groove G4 , and the other end has a length that can contact the pressure roller 211 .

The separation prevention bar 212 is an elastic body (not shown, for example, a tension spring connected to one end of the separation prevention bar 212, etc.) includes

Therefore, one end of the departure prevention bar 212 in the non-equipped section of the separation prevention bar 212, that is, the separation prevention block 21B, 22B, 24B, is formed by an elastic body to remove the external force of the separation prevention bar 212, and the fourth transfer wheel ( 24), the pressure roller 211 is pushed by the other end of the separation prevention bar 212 and protrudes outward as the seesaw moves to the inside.

Then, when passing through the separation prevention blocks 21B, 22B, and 24B sections, the pressure roller 211 is pressed while in contact with the inner surfaces of the separation prevention blocks 21B, 22B, and 24B, and the pressure roller As the separation prevention bar 212 rotates due to the pressing operation of 211, one end of the separation prevention bar 212 protrudes outside the fourth transfer wheel 24, that is, inside the fourth seating groove G4. The end of the separation prevention bar 212 comes into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the ampoule (A).

The separation prevention bar 212 rotated in this way functions as a kind of locking projection with respect to the fourth seating groove G4 to prevent the ampoule (A) from being pulled outward by centrifugal force, etc. ) (22B) (24B) can be prevented from coming into contact with the inner surface of the colliding.
