Description

本発明は、特に、卵や果物などのように丸みを帯びた形状で、かつ、傷つきやすい貼付面をもつ被貼付物にRFID内蔵のラベルをきれいに貼付けることができるラベル貼付装置に関する。   In particular, the present invention relates to a label sticking apparatus capable of neatly sticking a label with a built-in RFID to an article to be pasted having a rounded shape such as an egg or a fruit and having a sticking surface that is easily damaged.

従来、ラベル貼付部の吸着板にICタグのリーダーライター(RFID書込み部)ないしその通信用アンテナを取り付け、被着体(被貼付物)に関連するICタグとの間で行なう電子データの送受信を吸着板において行なうようにしたラベル貼付装置が知られている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。
元来ラベル貼付装置の吸着板は、ラベルを吸引するための吸引孔を形成するため成形し易いもので、かつ、吸引孔より吸引したエアーによってラベルを吸引・保持して被着体に貼付ける際に衝撃が生じるため強度のある材質が求められており、これらの成形し易く、かつ、強度が強いという条件に対応するためアルミなどで作製されている。
しかしながら、吸着板がアルミで作製されているため、前記特許文献1のラベル貼付装置のように通信用アンテナなどを吸着板に取り付けると、電子データの送受信用の電磁波がアルミの吸着板に吸収もしくは干渉して送受信エラーの原因になるという問題がある。
上記問題点を解決するため、電磁波が干渉しない合成樹脂などで吸着板を作製することが考えられるが、送受信エラーは発生しなくなるものの、貼付け時の衝撃に対応するには強度が弱くなるという問題があった。
また、上記貼付け装置を用いて卵や果物のような貼付物に前記シート材を貼付しようとすると、吸着板に吸引・保持したラベルを進退動手段を用いて被貼付物に押し付ける必要があるため仮令、吸着板が合成樹脂などで作製されていたとしても、被貼付物が丸みを帯びた形状(球体状)であると、吸引・保持されたラベルと球体状の被貼付物とが球体状の面(球体面)において「点」で接触することになるので、ラベルが貼付け不良となり易く、ラベルを被貼付物の球体面に対し「点」ではなく「面」で貼り付けようとした場合、球体面に沿って吸着板を揺動させて移動状態の被貼付物(卵や果物)にラベルを押し付ける必要があるため、被貼付物(卵や果物)が傷つき易いという問題があった。
上記の問題を解決すべく、丸みを帯びた形状の貼付面を有する被貼付物にラベル(シート材)を貼り付けるラベル貼付装置が知られている(例えば、特許文献2参照)。
この装置によれば、貼着面に押し付ける押圧部材を弾性変形可能な部材で予め凹状に形成し、被貼付物(試験管)の湾曲形状に形成された貼着面に仮着したラベルを押圧すると、押圧部材が貼着面の湾曲形状に追従して凹状に弾性変形し、この弾性変形が復元する方向に作用する押圧力によりラベルを貼り付けるようになっている。
しかしながら、特許文献2のラベル貼付装置では、特許文献1の装置に比し、卵や果物などのように丸みを帯びた形状で、かつ、やわらかくて傷つき易い被貼付物にラベルを貼り付けるには適しているものの、対象とする被貼付物の大きさによっては押圧部材を変えた方が効率が良いという問題がある。すなわち、卵の大きさからスイカ大の果物までの被貼付物を同じ押圧部材を用いて貼り付けるには、スイカ大の被貼付物に見合う大きな面積の押圧部材を予め用意し、大きな面積の押圧部材で卵にラベルを貼り付ける必要があり、圧力の具合によっては被貼付物が損傷しかねないという問題を含んでいる。
特開2006−1616号公報 特開平10−7119号公報
Conventionally, an IC tag reader / writer (RFID writing unit) or its communication antenna is attached to the adsorption plate of the label affixing unit, and electronic data is transmitted to and received from the IC tag related to the adherend (adhered object). There is known a label sticking device which is performed on an adsorption plate (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
Originally, the suction plate of the label sticking device is easy to mold because it forms a suction hole for sucking the label, and the label is sucked and held by the air sucked from the suction hole and stuck to the adherend. A strong material is required because an impact occurs at the time, and it is made of aluminum or the like in order to meet the condition that these materials are easy to mold and have high strength.
However, since the suction plate is made of aluminum, when a communication antenna or the like is attached to the suction plate as in the labeling device of Patent Document 1, electromagnetic waves for transmission / reception of electronic data are absorbed by the aluminum suction plate or There is a problem in that it causes interference due to interference.
In order to solve the above problems, it is conceivable to make an adsorption plate with synthetic resin that does not interfere with electromagnetic waves, but transmission / reception errors will not occur, but the strength will be weak to cope with the impact at the time of pasting was there.
In addition, if the sheet material is to be applied to an attachment such as an egg or fruit using the application device, it is necessary to press the label sucked / held on the suction plate against the object to be attached using the advancing / retreating means. Even if the suction plate is made of synthetic resin or the like, if the adherend has a rounded shape (spherical shape), the sucked / held label and the spherical adherend are spherical. Since the contact is made at “point” on the surface (sphere surface) of the label, the label is likely to be stuck poorly, and the label is attached to the sphere surface of the object to be pasted with “surface” instead of “point” Further, since it is necessary to swing the suction plate along the spherical surface and press the label against the moving object (egg or fruit), there is a problem that the object (egg or fruit) is easily damaged.
In order to solve the above problem, a label sticking device for sticking a label (sheet material) to an article to be pasted having a rounded sticking surface is known (for example, see Patent Document 2).
According to this apparatus, the pressing member to be pressed against the sticking surface is formed in a concave shape in advance by a member that can be elastically deformed, and the label temporarily attached to the sticking surface formed in the curved shape of the adherend (test tube) is pressed. Then, the pressing member elastically deforms into a concave shape following the curved shape of the attaching surface, and the label is attached by a pressing force acting in a direction in which this elastic deformation is restored.
However, in the label sticking apparatus of Patent Document 2, compared to the apparatus of Patent Document 1, a label is attached to an object to be stuck that is soft and easily damaged in a rounded shape such as an egg or a fruit. Although suitable, there is a problem in that it is more efficient to change the pressing member depending on the size of the object to be pasted. In other words, in order to paste a pasting object from the size of an egg to a watermelon-sized fruit using the same pressing member, a large-area pressing member suitable for the watermelon-sized pasting object is prepared in advance, and a large area pressing is performed. It is necessary to attach a label to an egg with a member, and there is a problem that an object to be attached may be damaged depending on the pressure.

次に、主に、図5を用いて張設・弛緩手段20の一例を説明する。
張設・弛緩手段20は、第1のローラ14の軸22と、回動アーム23、貼付け本体部13に設けられた係止ピン24、回動軸25、およびコイルバネなどの弾性体26で形成される。回動アーム23は、先端部に前記第1のローラ14の軸22を回転自在に支持するとともに、長手方向の中間部位が貼付け本体部13に固定された前記回動軸25に軸支されている。また、回動アーム23の他端部は、貼付け本体部13に設けられた係止ピン28との間に架設された前記弾性体26と係合しており、この弾性体26により常時、第1のローラ14を第2のローラ15より離す方向Tに付勢するようになっている。すなわち、弾性体26により回動アーム23の他端部が、図5における左方向に引っ張られると回動軸25に長手方向の中央部位が軸支されている回動アーム23の先端部は図5における右方向に回動するため、先端部に支持されている軸22を介して第1のローラ14が右方向(第2のローラ15より離す方向T)に付勢されるものであり、この付勢力により第1および第2のローラ14、15間に掛け渡された無端状ベルト16は張った状態に保たれるようになっている。
一方、第1および第2のローラ14、15間にて張った状態に保たれた無端状ベルト16は、被貼付物8に押し付けられると内側(図5における上方である貼付け本体部13側)に撓み、第1のローラ14は弾性体26の付勢力に抗して第2のローラ15側(図5における左側)に引っ張られるが、第1のローラ14を回動自在に支持する回動アーム23の他端部が弾性体26により常時引っ張られているため、被貼付物8に対する押し付けを止めると元の張った状態に戻るようになっている。
Next, an example of the tension / relaxation means 20 will be described mainly with reference to FIG.
The tensioning / relaxation means 20 is formed by the shaft 22 of the first roller 14, the rotating arm 23, the locking pin 24 provided on the pasting main body 13, the rotating shaft 25, and an elastic body 26 such as a coil spring. Is done. The rotary arm 23 rotatably supports the shaft 22 of the first roller 14 at the tip, and is supported by the rotary shaft 25 whose longitudinal intermediate portion is fixed to the pasting main body 13. Yes. Further, the other end portion of the rotating arm 23 is engaged with the elastic body 26 laid between the locking pin 28 provided on the pasting main body portion 13, and the elastic body 26 always makes the first One roller 14 is biased in a direction T away from the second roller 15. That is, when the other end portion of the rotating arm 23 is pulled leftward in FIG. 5 by the elastic body 26, the distal end portion of the rotating arm 23 in which the central portion in the longitudinal direction is pivotally supported by the rotating shaft 25 is illustrated. 5, the first roller 14 is urged rightward (direction T away from the second roller 15) via the shaft 22 supported at the tip portion. The endless belt 16 stretched between the first and second rollers 14 and 15 is maintained in a tensioned state by this urging force.
On the other hand, the endless belt 16 kept in a state of being stretched between the first and second rollers 14 and 15 is inside (on the pasting main body 13 side, which is the upper side in FIG. 5) when pressed against the article 8. The first roller 14 is pulled to the second roller 15 side (left side in FIG. 5) against the urging force of the elastic body 26, but the first roller 14 is rotatably supported. Since the other end portion of the arm 23 is always pulled by the elastic body 26, it returns to the original tensioned state when the pressing on the object 8 is stopped.

次に、ラベル54の吸引・保持状態を説明する。
主に図2に示すように、供給軸3に装着されたRFID連続体50は下流に繰り出され、印字機構4にて表面に所望事項が印字されたラベル54は、剥離板5にて台紙55より剥離される。
主に、図3および図4に示すように、剥離されたラベル54(説明の都合上、同図においては想像線にて示してある)は、図示省略の真空装置の作動により吸引ノズル17の先端部より吸引されるエアーAに引き付けられ、剥離板5近辺に設けられた第1のローラ14の無端ベルト16の外周面16aに吸引・保持された状態となり、モータ18の回転を介した第1のローラ14の回転により搬送方向F側へ移送され、第1および第2のローラ14、15間の中央部位の所定位置に位置決めされ、次いで、貼付け本体部13と前記無端状ベルト16の外周面16aとの間に配設されたRFID書込み部19のアンテナ21を介してラベル54は所望情報を書き込まれる。
Next, the suction / holding state of the label 54 will be described.
As shown mainly in FIG. 2, the RFID continuous body 50 mounted on the supply shaft 3 is drawn out downstream, and a label 54 on which a desired matter is printed on the surface by the printing mechanism 4 is mounted on the backing plate 55 by the release plate 5. More peeled.
As shown mainly in FIGS. 3 and 4, the peeled label 54 (shown by an imaginary line in the figure for convenience of explanation) is applied to the suction nozzle 17 by the operation of a vacuum device (not shown). It is attracted to the air A sucked from the tip, and is sucked and held by the outer peripheral surface 16a of the endless belt 16 of the first roller 14 provided in the vicinity of the peeling plate 5, and the first through the rotation of the motor 18 1 is transferred to the conveyance direction F side by rotation of the roller 14, positioned at a predetermined position in the central portion between the first and second rollers 14, 15, and then the outer periphery of the pasting main body 13 and the endless belt 16 Desired information is written on the label 54 via the antenna 21 of the RFID writing section 19 disposed between the surface 16a.

次に、図6ないし図10を用いて、ラベル貼付装置1の使用状態を説明する。
なお、説明の都合上、貼付け機構7は斜め上方より被貼付物8に対し進退動するようにしてある。
図6は、無端状ベルト16の外周面16a近辺に伸延させた吸引ノズル17の先端より吸い込んだエアーAにて無端ベルト16の下端に剥離板5にて剥離したラベル54を吸引・保持した状態を示す説明図であって、搬送ベルト9にて搬送されてきた球体状の被貼付物8、例えばメロンに対し、押圧手段としてのアーム2を進出させる状態を示している。
図7は、被貼付物8の球体状の表面にラベ54が到達し軽く押し付けられた状態を示している。
図8は、さらに、アーム2を進出した状態を示し、ラベル54を吸引・保持している無端状ベルト16がアーム2の進出により撓んだ状態を示している。このとき無端状ベルト18が「丸ベルト」で形成されているので、被貼付物8が傷つき易い果物であっても当たりが柔らかで傷つきにくい。また、この被貼付物8に対し無端状ベルト16をさらに押し付けると第1のローラ14が張設・弛緩手段20の弾性体26の付勢力に抗して内側(第2のローラ15側)に移動し、第1および第2のローラ14、15間に掛け渡された無端状ベルト16を緩めるため、球体状の表面に無端状ベルト16が優しく押し付けられて果物などの被貼付物が傷つきにくいものである。
図9は、図8中、矢示IX方向より貼付け本体部13やRFID書込み部19などを透視してラベル54の貼り付け状況を見た説明図であり、張設・弛緩手段20の作動により無端状ベルト16が緩んだ状態においても、無端状ベルト16が球体状の表面に沿って滑りながらラベル54を上から被貼付物8へ押し付けるため、ラベル54の貼付け状態が良好となるものである。
図10は、アーム2を退動させた状態を示し、この退動の段階で張設・弛緩手段20の弾性体26が常時第1のローラ14を図5における右方向(第2のローラ15より離す方向T)に付勢しているため、第1のローラ14が第2のローラ17より離れる方向Tへと移動して第1および第2のローラ14、15間に掛け渡された無端状ベルト16を張りつめた状態に復帰する。アーム2は、剥離板5の近傍まで貼付け機構7を移動して位置決めし、次のラベル54が剥離されるのを待つ。
Next, the use state of the label sticking apparatus 1 is demonstrated using FIG. 6 thru | or FIG.
For convenience of explanation, the pasting mechanism 7 moves forward and backward with respect to the article 8 to be pasted obliquely from above.
FIG. 6 shows a state in which the label 54 peeled off by the peeling plate 5 is sucked and held at the lower end of the endless belt 16 by the air A sucked from the tip of the suction nozzle 17 extended near the outer peripheral surface 16a of the endless belt 16. It is explanatory drawing which shows, Comprising: The state which makes the arm 2 as a press means advance is shown with respect to the spherical to-be-bonded thing 8 conveyed by the conveyance belt 9, for example, melon.
FIG. 7 shows a state in which the label 54 reaches the spherical surface of the article 8 and is pressed lightly.
FIG. 8 further shows a state in which the arm 2 is advanced, and shows a state in which the endless belt 16 that sucks and holds the label 54 is bent by the advancement of the arm 2. At this time, since the endless belt 18 is formed of a “round belt”, even if the pasted article 8 is a fruit that is easily damaged, the hit is soft and hardly damaged. Further, when the endless belt 16 is further pressed against the article 8 to be pasted, the first roller 14 resists the urging force of the elastic body 26 of the tensioning / relaxation means 20 to the inside (the second roller 15 side). Since the endless belt 16 that has moved and loosened between the first and second rollers 14 and 15 is loosened, the endless belt 16 is gently pressed against the spherical surface, and the adherend such as fruit is not easily damaged. Is.
FIG. 9 is an explanatory view of the pasting state of the label 54 as seen through the pasting main body 13 and the RFID writing unit 19 from the direction of arrow IX in FIG. Even when the endless belt 16 is loosened, the label 54 is pressed against the object 8 from above while the endless belt 16 slides along the spherical surface, so that the label 54 is attached well. .
FIG. 10 shows a state in which the arm 2 is retracted, and the elastic body 26 of the tensioning / relaxation means 20 always moves the first roller 14 to the right in FIG. 5 (the second roller 15). The first roller 14 is moved in the direction T away from the second roller 17 and is stretched between the first and second rollers 14 and 15 because it is biased in the further away direction T). The belt 16 is restored to the tensioned state. The arm 2 moves and positions the sticking mechanism 7 to the vicinity of the peeling plate 5 and waits for the next label 54 to be peeled off.

上述したように、無端状ベルト16の外周面16a近辺に向けて伸延される吸引ノズル17の先端部よりエアーAを吸引し、第1および第2のローラ14、15間に掛け渡された無端状ベルト16にラベル54を吸引・保持するとともに、RFID書込み部19にてラベル54に対し所望の電子的データ(所望情報)を書込み・記憶させ、さらに、搬送されてきた被貼付物8に対しアーム2を進出させてラベル54を貼付けるので、貼付け機構7にラベル54が吸引・保持された状態でラベル54に対する所望情報が書き込めるため、印字機構4の前後(好ましくは直前)に「RFID書込み部」を別途設ける場合に比し、「印字機構」側の装置の大型化が避けられるものである。
また、RFID書込み装置19は、アルミなどの金属で作製された貼付け本体部13と、無端状ベルト16の外周面16aとの間に配設し、支持部材58を介してRFID書込み部19より離して浮かすようにしたので、RFID書込み部19のアンテナ21による書込み(送受信)の際、電磁波が貼付け本体部13に吸収・干渉される恐れが軽減される。
さらに、アーム2を進出させ、ラベル54が被貼付物8に接触して押し付けられた状態のとき、張設・弛緩手段20の弾性体27が作用し常時、付勢している付勢力に抗して第1のローラ14を内側(図5における左方向であり、第2のローラ15に近付ける方向)に移動し、第1のローラ14の位置移動を介して第1および第2のローラ14、15間に掛け渡された無端状ベルト16の張りを緩めるため、丸ベルトで形成された無端状ベルト16の被貼付物8に対する当たりの柔らかさと相俟って、果物などの被貼付物8が傷つきにくいものある。
また、張設・弛緩手段20の作動により無端状ベルト16が緩んだ状態においても、無端状ベルト18が球体状の表面に沿って滑りながらラベル54を上から被貼付物8へ押し付けるため、ラベル54の貼付状態が良好となるものである。
さらに、吸引ノズル17を合成樹脂やゴムなどの弾力性のある素材で作製するようにしたので、丸みが大きい被貼付物8に対し、アーム2の進出を介した無端状ベルト16の押し付けを深いものとする必要があるときに、吸引ノズル17が被貼付物8に接触した場合であっても、傷をつけにくいものである。
As described above, the air A is sucked from the tip of the suction nozzle 17 that extends toward the vicinity of the outer peripheral surface 16 a of the endless belt 16, and is endlessly stretched between the first and second rollers 14 and 15. The label 54 is sucked and held on the belt 16 and desired electronic data (desired information) is written / stored on the label 54 by the RFID writing unit 19, and further, the object 8 to be adhered is conveyed. Since the arm 2 is advanced and the label 54 is pasted, desired information for the label 54 can be written in the state where the label 54 is sucked and held in the pasting mechanism 7, so that "RFID writing" is performed before and after (preferably just before) the printing mechanism 4. Compared with the case where the “part” is provided separately, an increase in the size of the apparatus on the “printing mechanism” side is avoided.
The RFID writing device 19 is disposed between the pasting main body portion 13 made of a metal such as aluminum and the outer peripheral surface 16 a of the endless belt 16, and is separated from the RFID writing portion 19 via the support member 58. Therefore, when writing (transmitting / receiving) with the antenna 21 of the RFID writing unit 19, the possibility that electromagnetic waves are absorbed and interfered with the pasting main body unit 13 is reduced.
Further, when the arm 2 is advanced and the label 54 is pressed against the article 8 to be pressed, the elastic body 27 of the tensioning / relaxation means 20 acts and resists the constantly urging force. Then, the first roller 14 is moved inward (the left direction in FIG. 5, the direction approaching the second roller 15), and the first and second rollers 14 are moved through the positional movement of the first roller 14. In order to loosen the tension of the endless belt 16 stretched between 15 and 15, in combination with the softness of the endless belt 16 formed of a round belt against the object 8 to be adhered, the object 8 such as a fruit is attached. There are things that are hard to be damaged.
Further, even when the endless belt 16 is loosened by the operation of the tensioning / relaxing means 20, the endless belt 18 slides along the spherical surface while pressing the label 54 from above onto the article 8 to be pasted. The 54 sticking state becomes good.
Furthermore, since the suction nozzle 17 is made of an elastic material such as synthetic resin or rubber, the endless belt 16 is deeply pressed through the advancement of the arm 2 against the object 8 having a large roundness. Even when the suction nozzle 17 comes into contact with the object 8 to be pasted when it is necessary, it is difficult to be damaged.

なお、上記実施の形態の構成及び動作は例であって、本発明の趣旨を逸脱しない範囲で適宜変更することができることは言うまでもない。 It should be noted that the configuration and operation of the above-described embodiment are examples, and it goes without saying that they can be changed as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

例えば、説明の都合上、RFID連続体50として台紙55にラベル54が仮着された剥離タイプのもので説明したがこれに限定されないことは勿論であり、台紙なしのRFID連続体を採用し、剥離板5に代えて「カッタ装置」などを用いてラベル片に切断し、これを貼付ける「ラベル貼付装置」であっても構わない。 For example, for the convenience of explanation, the RFID continuous body 50 has been described as a peeling type in which a label 54 is temporarily attached to a mount 55, but the present invention is not limited to this. Instead of the peeling plate 5, it may be a “label sticking device” that cuts into label pieces using a “cutter device” or the like and sticks them.

また、張設・弛緩手段20は、第1のローラ14に設けた例で説明したがこれに限定されないことは勿論であり、第2のローラ15側に設けても、あるいは、第1および第2のローラ14、15の双方に設けても構わないものである。     The tension / relaxation means 20 has been described in the example provided on the first roller 14, but is not limited to this, and may be provided on the second roller 15 side, or the first and first Two rollers 14 and 15 may be provided.

また、剥離板5にて剥離したラベル54を無端状ベルト16に吸引・保持し、かつ、第1および第2のローラ14、15間の中央部位に移送する際、ラベル54に向けてエアーを噴きつける「噴射手段」(例えば、噴射ノズル)を設け、無端状ベルト16に対するラベル54の吸引・保持力を増大させる補助的な役割を担わすようにしてもよい。     Further, when the label 54 peeled off by the peeling plate 5 is sucked and held by the endless belt 16 and transferred to the central portion between the first and second rollers 14 and 15, air is directed toward the label 54. An “injecting means” (for example, an injection nozzle) for spraying may be provided to play an auxiliary role of increasing the suction / holding force of the label 54 with respect to the endless belt 16.
