The invention discloses an automatic plate rolling device for a corrugated carton printing machine. The device comprises a printing roller, a limiting sleeve and a driving box, a shaft groove is formed in the printing roller, a plate hanging shaft is rotationally connected into the shaft groove, the surface of the printing roller is coated with an offset plate, a center shaft is fixedly inserted into the printing roller in a penetrating mode, a plate hanging gear is fixedly inserted into one end of the plate hanging shaft in a penetrating manner, the limiting sleeve is rotationally arranged ona printing machine frame, the driving box is fixed to the printing machine frame, a driving motor is fixedly installed in the driving box, an output end of the driving motor is fixedly connected withan output shaft, a driving gear is fixedly inserted into the output shaft in a penetrating mode, and first threaded shafts are symmetrically and rotationally connected to the inner wall of the driving box. The printing roller is rotated by 90 degrees through the printing machine, the plate hanging gear revolves around a plate rolling gear, and due to the meshing effect of the printing roller andthe plate rolling gear, the plate hanging gear drives the plate hanging shaft to rotate, so that the offset plate is automatically rolled and locked.
