Abstract:
1. A specification-attaching apparatus comprising: a specification-feeding unit configured with a receiving space adapted for receiving a row of specifications therein, and operable so as to feed one of the specifications outwardly of said receiving space; a transferring unit adapted for transferring said one of the specifications fed from said specification-feeding unit to a first position; an attaching unit disposed adjacent to said transferring unit and including a pivot rod, and at least one first suction member movable, in response to rotation of said pivot rod, in sequence among a sucking position adjacent to the first position, a standby position and a releasing position that are spaced angularly apart from each other, said first suction member of said attaching unit being operable between a sucking state and a non-sucking state, wherein said first suction member of said attaching unit is switched from the non-sucking state to the sucking state when said first suction member of said attaching unit is at the sucking position such that said one of the specifications transferred from said transferring unit is sucked thereby, and is switched from the sucking state to the non-sucking state when said first suction member of said attaching unit is at the releasing position such that said one of the specifications is released therefrom; a motor-driven container conveying unit disposed adjacent to the standby position and the releasing position, having a feed-in end adjacent to the standby position, and a take-out end adjacent to the releasing position, and adapted to convey a container from said feed-in end to said take-out end, said container conveying unit being operable so that the container conveyed thereby moves in synchronization with said first suction member of said attaching unit and contacts said one of the specifications sucked by said first suction member of said attaching unit when said first suction member of said attaching unit moves from the standby position to the releasing position; and a glue-spraying unit disposed adjacent to said container conveying unit and between said feed-in end of said container conveying unit and the standby position, and adapted for spraying glue onto the container conveyed by said container conveying unit before said first suction member of said attaching unit reaches the standby position; wherein said one of the specifications sucked by said first suction member of said attaching unit is adhered to the container conveyed by said container conveying unit by the glue during movement of said first suction member of said attaching unit from the standby position to the releasing position; and wherein said attaching unit further includes:
