Description

BACKGROUND

1. Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to a sleeve labeling machine, and in particular to, a sleeve labeling machine which reduces a manufacturing cost and has a simple structure

2. Related Art

There are several structures of sleeve labeling machines utilized by sleeve labeling machines. Generally, the conventional sleeve labeling manner is to emit labels to objects, specifically, after a sleeve label tape is installed on a label tray, guided and drawn by guiding wheels, and disposed through and opened by the central guide column, an upper and lower drive wheels of a conveying device and a pressing wheel of the central guide column press the sleeve label tape, and a supporting wheel being vertical to the drive wheels and the pressing wheel of the central guide column press the sleeve label tape. Next, the sleeve label tape is successfully transmitted downward by the conveying device, and a cutting device can cut the sleeve label tape being located with several segments of specific lengths. Then, when an object to be sleeved with the label is transmitted to a set position under the central guide column, an emit labeling wheel of an emit labeling device and the pressing wheel of the central guide column drive the cut sleeve label tape to move downward quickly, and thus the operation for sleeving the label to the object can be achieved. However, though the above manner can achieve the operation for sleeving the label to the object, it is not suitable to the object which has a small volume or is hard to stand since there is a high possibility that the object falls down or is unstable during the transmission, so that it causes the problem of hardly sleeving the label to the object.

To solve the above problems, an sleeve labeling mechanism structure is provided on the market, in which a main object to be sleeved with the label enters a material distribution tray via a feeding device, and the sleeve label tape enters a label distribution tray after a tape driving device and cutting device set a specific length of the sleeve label tape. The material distribution tray and the label distribution tray rotate synchronously and make the object to be sleeved with the label correspond to a label. A propulsion device disposed on an adjacent side of the label distribution tray rotates synchronously with the material distribution tray and the label distribution tray, and the propulsion device can push the label to be sleeved to the object smoothly and precisely. However, the material distribution tray and the label distribution tray must rotate synchronously, and difference between their rotating speeds cannot be allowed. When the material distribution tray and the label distribution tray do not rotate synchronously, most labels cannot be precisely sleeved, especially, when one label is not successfully sleeved, most of the next labels are not successfully sleeved. Thus, calibration and observation of labors are needed, and during the label sleeving and conveying procedures, the serious condition of the object and the label is required, so that it increases the difficulty of the flow control and management. Further, the allocation of the sleeve labeling mechanism structure has a higher complexity, a serious condition and more devices, which causes the higher manufacturing cost.
