detailed description

The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

The object of the present invention is to provide a label cleaning method and system. By installing a printing sensing device on an ordinary barcode printer, it can perceive the instructions sent to the printer, and at the same time link the printing instructions and scanning hardware to realize two The automatic correlation between the two-dimensional code information and the issued printing order can improve the cleaning efficiency of the label.

In order to make the above objects, features and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

Embodiment one

As shown in Figure 1, the label cleaning method of the present invention comprises:

S1: Generate a printing instruction according to the product information input by the user. In this embodiment, the product information is the content that the user wishes to associate with the label, such as product number, product name, production batch, packaging specification, packaging ratio and other information.

Specifically, the host computer generates corresponding printing instructions according to information such as product names, product batches, packaging specifications, and packaging ratios. Different printing instructions can be generated for different batches of products.

S2: According to the printing instruction, drive the printer to print out the corresponding label. In this embodiment, the printer is a barcode printer. There is a unique barcode or QR code on the label.

S3: Control the scanning head to scan the label printed by the printer to obtain label information. The tag information is the unique identifier of the corresponding tag. Preferably, the scanning position of the scanning head is directly facing the paper output position of the printer, and it is only necessary to control the scanning head to start scanning without manual operation of the scanning head, further improving the scanning efficiency.

S4: Associating the label information with the product information. In addition, products from the same batch can be associated with labels on the outer case or pallet.

In the logistics process, the flow of each product can be recorded by scanning the barcode or QR code on the product, outer box, or label on the pallet.

In addition, the label cleaning method of the present invention also includes:

S5: Transmit each label information and product information associated with each label information to the data center for storage. To facilitate subsequent scanning and delivery.

As shown in FIG. 2 , the label cleaning system of the present invention includes: a host computer 1 , a printer 2 , a scanning head 3 and a printing sensing device 4 .

Wherein, the upper computer 1 is used for receiving product information input by the user, and generating a printing instruction according to the product information.

Printer 2 is used to print labels.

The scanning head 3 is used to scan the label printed by the printer to obtain label information. Preferably, the scanning position of the scanning head 3 is facing the paper output position of the printer 2 .

As a specific implementation, the scanning head 3 and the printer 2 are fixed as a whole by screws. In addition, the scanning head 3 may not be fixed on the printer 2, but hang on the printer 2 at a certain height in the form of a bracket so that the scanning position of the scanning head 3 faces the paper output position.

By aligning the scanning position of the scanning head 3 to the paper output position of the printer 2, when scanning is required, only a control signal is required to control the scanning head 3 to start to scan automatically, without manual control of the scanning head 3 to scan the barcode on the label, The work efficiency is further improved, and manual operation errors are avoided.

The printing sensing device 4 is respectively connected with the host computer 1, the printer 2 and the scanning head 3, and the printing sensing device 4 is used to drive the printer 2 to print out the corresponding label according to the printing instruction, and control the scanning The head 3 scans the label printed by the printer 2, and associates the label information with the product information. Specifically, the printing sensing device 4 is a board and installed in the printer 2 .

In the present invention, a board with a built-in PLC program is installed in the printer 2, and three interfaces are provided externally, one interface is connected to the printing data line, one interface is connected to the scanning head 3, and the other interface is connected to the upper computer 1. After starting the printing program on the host computer 1, send the printing command to the board. After the board senses the printing command, it sends the printing command to the barcode printer, drives the printer to print out the label, and starts by connecting the data cable of the scanning head 3. The scanning head 3 scans the barcode exposed on the label, records the content of the barcode and associates it with the printing instruction.

In the present invention, the upper computer 1 sends a printing command to the board, drives the printer 2 to print relevant content on the label, and scans the barcode on the label with the scanning head 3 to obtain the corresponding label information, and sends it back to the upper computer. 1. Associated with product information. Finally, all product information and associated label information are transmitted to the data center for scanning and shipping.

As a specific implementation, when the label cleaning system is working, the staff will input the product information to be printed into the host computer 1, and after the host computer 1 issues a printing command, the printer 2 will first print out the label, which is pre-printed with a barcode , the printed label stops at the paper output position of the printer 2. At this time, the scanning head 3 is controlled to scan the barcode to obtain the corresponding label information, and transmit it to the board to associate the label information with the product information.

The entire label cleaning process of the present invention does not need to be manually scanned according to each product, and the product of each label is recorded and associated with the outer box label. For products with too many varieties and a small batch of each product, it can be extremely efficient. I greatly improve the cleaning efficiency of the label.

Each embodiment in this specification is described in a progressive manner, each embodiment focuses on the difference from other embodiments, and the same and similar parts of each embodiment can be referred to each other.

In this paper, specific examples have been used to illustrate the principle and implementation of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method of the present invention and its core idea; meanwhile, for those of ordinary skill in the art, according to the present invention Thoughts, there will be changes in specific implementation methods and application ranges. In summary, the contents of this specification should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
