The present invention relates to a rotary type labeling machine, and more particularly, to a rotary type labeling machine having an improved structure to attach a label to an article such as various containers.

In general, a labeling machine is a machine provided to attach a label having a trade name or the like to an article such as a container provided to accommodate a product such as cooking oil and beverage.

The labeling device has a container conveying device for conveying the container, a labeling device having a labeling drum for attaching a label to the container conveyed by the container conveying device, and a label supply device for supplying a label to the labeling device. It includes.

Then, the labeling machine is divided into a rotary type and an inline type according to the method of the container transfer device for transferring the container.

The rotary type labeling machine is provided with a rotary table for rotating the container so that the container contacts the labeling drum and rotates in opposite directions to each other so that the label is attached. However, the inline type labeling device is configured such that the container is attached to the labeling drum in contact with the labeling drum to be attached to the label, such that the rotary table of the rotary type described above is not provided.

Hereinafter, the rotary type label attaching machine will be described as an example.

The feed rate is controlled. That is, when the moving base 40 moves, the label cutting unit 34 integrally coupled with the moving base 40 also moves. Then, the distance between the label cutting unit 34 and the servo unit 27 is changed to cause a supply deviation of the label 5, and the distance between the label cutting unit 34 and the servo unit 27 is changed. The cutting position of the label 5 is changed. Accordingly, the control unit controls the rotation speed of the servo column 28 according to the moving distance of the moving base 40 and the supply signal of the I mark recognition unit 25, so that the label 5 according to the moving of the moving base 40 is moved. This minimizes the supply deviation of.

By this configuration, looking at the operation of the rotary type label attaching machine 1 according to the present invention.

First, the rectangular container 3 is transferred from the container transfer apparatus 10 to the labeling apparatus 30. Then, the container 3 comes into contact with the labeling drum 31 while rotating and rotating by the rotary table 17 and the mounting table 18. Then, the label 5 can be attached to the container 3 by the label supply device 20 and the label attaching device 30.

In addition, the case in which the container 3 is changed to a container 3 having a different size is as follows.

First, as shown in FIG. 2, in the case of the rectangular container 3, it is preferable that the starting position to which the label 5 is affixed is fixed uniformly. Thus, the starting position at which the label 5 is attached to the changed container 3 is determined. Then, the labeling drum 31 is biaxially operated by manipulating the first adjusting lever 46 and the second adjusting lever 56 of the moving base 40 so that the label 5 is correctly attached to the changed container 3. Move it.

Then, by controlling the supply speed of the label 5 through the servo unit 27 according to the position signal of the label 5 transmitted by the I mark recognition unit 25 and the moving distance of the moving base 40, the moving The supply deviation of the label 5 generated by the movement of the base 40 can be minimized.

Accordingly, the rotary type labeling device according to the present invention provides a moving base for supporting the labeling drum in a horizontal direction on the rotary axis of the rotary table so as to be biaxially moved, even if the size of a product such as a container to which a label is attached varies. Moving the labeling drum by using the moving base can reduce the replacement of parts, and can reduce the replacement of these parts can improve productivity and workability. Then, the label can be easily attached to correspond to products of various shapes such as rectangular containers. In addition, by providing the I mark recognition unit and the servo unit, it is possible to minimize the supply deviation of the label generated by the movement of the moving base to a minimum.

In the above-described embodiment, the first base portion 51 and the second base portion 61 of the moving base 40 are provided to be movable in the transverse direction of the container 3 direction and the container 3 direction, respectively. It goes without saying that the labeling drum 31 supported by the base 40 may be biaxially movable in the other direction so as to be transversely close to and detachable from the outer peripheral surface of the container 3 on the rotary table 17.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to improve productivity and workability by reducing the exchange of parts even in the size change of a product such as a container. In addition, labels can be easily attached to products of various shapes such as rectangular containers. In addition, by providing the I mark recognition unit and the servo unit, it is possible to minimize the supply deviation of the label generated by the movement of the moving base to a minimum.
