[0029] To describe in detail the content, structural features, achieved objectives and effects of the present invention, the following will be described in detail in conjunction with the implementation manners and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Refer to Figures 1 to 4 , the present invention discloses a carton sealer 100, which is mainly used for bending and forming the double-layer sealing lids of a packing box 200 and applying glue, and is also used for attaching more than one type of label to the packing box 200. Specifically, the carton sealer 100 provided by the preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a working platform 10, a conveying device 20 arranged along the longitudinal direction of the working platform 10, a bending device 30 erected above the conveying device 20, and a labeling device 40 located beside the conveying device 20. The conveying device 20 is used to convey the packing box 200 with an upwardly open and unsealed mouth to the bending device 30. The bending device 30 is located around the mouth of the packing box 200 and can perform rotational movement and linear movement of approaching or separating from the packing box 200. The rotational movement of the bending device 30 can drive the two opposite short sides 201 at the mouth of the packing box 200 to bend towards the direction close to the mouth to form an inner lid for closing the mouth of the box. The linear movement of the bending device 30 can drive the two opposite long sides 202 at the mouth of the packing box 200 to bend towards the direction close to the mouth, and form a top lid for closing the mouth of the box at the upper end of the inner lid. The labeling device 40 can perform linear reciprocating movement relative to the packing box 200 and is used to attach the label 300 and the label 400 to the packing box 200 correspondingly. The conveying device 20 is also used to convey the labeled packing box 200 for discharging.

[0031] It should be noted that, in the present application, the bottom cover 203 of the packaging box 200 conveyed on the conveying device 20 has been bent and formed, and the packaging box 200 has been loaded with electronic products. The bending device 30 is mainly used to fold and form the packaging box 200 with indentations. Of course, the carton sealing machine 100 of the present invention also includes a control system, which is electrically connected to the conveying device 20, the bending device 30 and the labeling device 40, and is used to control the coordinated actions of the various devices. Among them, the control system is an existing design, and its structure and control principle are well known in the art, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 3 The conveying device 20 includes two conveyor belts 21 arranged side by side at a certain interval. The two conveyor belts 21 cooperate with each other to form a conveying path between the two conveyor belts for conveying the packaging box 200. The two conveyor belts 21 can be annular belts. The conveying surfaces of the two conveyor belts 21 can be arranged parallel to the bottom cover 203 of the packaging box 200. Then, the two conveyor belts 21 can be horizontally supported from below at the opposite edges of the bottom cover 203, thereby transferring the packaging box 200 along the longitudinal direction of the working platform 10.

[0033] Specifically, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the conveying surfaces of the two endless conveyor belts 21 can be arranged perpendicular to the bottom cover 203 of the packaging box 200, and the two conveyor belts 21 are arranged vertically in the longitudinal direction of the working platform 10, and the packaging box 200 can be pushed by the left and right opposite sides of the packaging box 200, which correspond to the two sides where the two long sides 202 are located, so as to cooperate to convey the packaging box 200 along the longitudinal direction of the working platform 10. At this time, in order to strengthen the pushing force on the packaging box 200 to improve the smoothness of the conveying, the conveying device 20 also includes conveying rollers 22, and a plurality of conveying rollers 22 can be arranged equidistantly on the conveying path along the conveying direction of the two conveyor belts 21.

[0034] See also Figures 1 to 3 The carton sealing machine 100 of the present invention further includes a sealing device 50, which is arranged on the lower side or / and upper side of the conveying device 20, and is used to stick a straight-line adhesive tape 500 on the bottom cover 203 or / and the top cover of the packaging box 200. Specifically, in this embodiment, a forming position 20a and a sealing position 20b are sequentially arranged on the conveying device 20 along its conveying direction, and a sealing device 50 is respectively arranged at the forming position 20a and the sealing position 20b. Among them, the sealing device 50 arranged at the forming position 20a is located at the lower side of the conveying device 20, and is used to stick a straight-line adhesive tape 500 on the bottom cover 203 of the packaging box 200. The bending device 30 is located at the upper side of the conveying device 20 at the forming position 20a, and the layout is more compact. The sealing device 50 arranged at the sealing position 20b is located at the upper side of the conveying device 20, and is used to stick a straight-line adhesive tape 500 on the top cover.

[0035] Specifically, the sealing device 50 includes a tray 51, a guiding wheel 52 and a cutter 53. The linear tape 500 is loaded on the tray 51, and its free end is wound around the guiding wheel 52. The guiding wheel 52 is arranged to be telescopic relative to the conveying device 20 and the cutter 53. The guiding wheel 52 can rotate or move relative to the packaging box 200, so as to telescopically approach or move away from the packaging box 200, so that the linear tape 500 adhered thereto can be adhered to the packaging box 200, and as the packaging box 200 moves, it fits on the bottom cover 203 or the top cover of the packaging box 200 to form a sealing section. The cutter 53 can rotate or move relative to the packaging box 200, so as to telescopically approach or move away from the packaging box 200 to separate the sealing section on the packaging box 200 from the linear tape 500. Preferably, the cutting edge of the cutter 53 is arranged to be hidden and will only be exposed when cutting operation is required, thereby improving the safety of use. Among them, the structures of the two-station sealing devices 50 are generally the same, but only adaptively adjusted according to the set positions.

[0036] More specifically, the plurality of conveying rollers 22 arranged at the forming position 20a in the conveying device 20 are set shorter relative to the other conveying rollers 22, so as to form an avoidance space for arranging the sealing device 50 at this station. When the packaging box 200 is conveyed to the forming position 20a on the conveying device 20 and abuts against the guiding wheel 52, the linear tape 500 on the guiding wheel 52 can be adhered to the front end of the bottom cover 203 of the packaging box 200. Then, as the packaging box 200 moves, under the action of its pressing force, the guiding wheel 52 moves or rotates relatively to shrink to a position flush with the bottom cover 203 of the packaging box 200, and then the linear tape 500 is adhesively connected through the bottom cover 203 of the packaging box 200. During the process of the packaging box 200 leaving this station, the pressing on the guiding wheel 52 can be released, and the guiding wheel 52 moves reversely and extends to reset. At the same time, the cutter 53 can move or rotate relatively to extend under the action of the pressing force of the packaging box 200 or the linkage force of the guiding wheel 52 until its hidden cutting edge abuts against the sealing section adhered to the bottom cover 203 of the packaging box 200, thereby cutting off the connection between the sealing section and the linear tape 500.

[0037] Refer to Figures 4 to 9 , the bending device 30 includes a first bending mechanism 31 and a second bending mechanism 32 respectively arranged outside the two short sides 201 and a third bending mechanism 33 arranged outside the two long sides 202. The first bending mechanism 31 and the second bending mechanism 32 can synchronously bend the short side 201 opposite to them. In order to optimize the structure, the specific structures of the first bending mechanism 31 and the second bending mechanism 32 may not be the same. The third bending mechanism 33 is used to synchronously bend the two long sides 202.

[0038] Combined with Figures 4 to 6, the first bending mechanism 31 includes a first mounting plate 311, a first linear driver 312, a first rack 313 and a first gear 314 that are meshed with each other, and a first pressing plate 315. The first linear driver 312 is installed on the first mounting plate 311. The first rack 313 is connected to the output end of the first linear driver 312. The first pressing plate 315 is rotatably installed on the first mounting plate 311, and the rotation axis of the first pressing plate 315 is connected to the first gear 314. Then, driven by the first linear driver 312, the first rack 313 can move linearly up and down, thereby driving the first gear 314 to rotate. The rotating first gear 314 drives the first pressing plate 315 connected thereto to swing up and down, so as to approach or move away from the short side 201 opposite thereto, and bend it.

[0039] Specifically, the bending device 30 further includes a first linear module 34 that drives the first bending mechanism 31 to move linearly in the vertical direction perpendicular to the working platform 10 and in the transverse width direction of the working platform 10, so as to approach or move away from the packing box 200 as a whole. Specifically, the first mounting plate 311 is connected to the output end of the first linear module 34.

[0040] Combined with Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the second bending mechanism 32 includes a second mounting plate 321, a first rotary driver 322, a synchronous belt 323 and a second pressing plate 324. The first rotary driver 322 is installed on the upper side of the second mounting plate 321. The second pressing plate 324 is rotatably installed on the lower side of the second mounting plate 321. The synchronous belt 323 is sleeved on the output shaft of the first rotary driver 322 and the rotation axis of the second pressing plate 324. Then, driven by the first rotary driver 322, the second pressing plate 324 can swing up and down, so as to approach or move away from the short side 201 opposite thereto, and bend it.

[0041] Specifically, the bending device 30 further includes a second linear module 35 that drives the second bending mechanism 32 to move linearly in the vertical direction perpendicular to the working platform 10. The second mounting plate 321 is connected to the output end of the second linear module 35. Preferably, both ends of the second linear module 35 are installed on the working platform 10 along the transverse width direction of the working platform 10 through two support frames 351. One end of the first linear module 34 is installed on the working platform 10 through a support frame 341, and the other end thereof is installed on the support frame 351 of the second linear module 35 along the transverse width direction of the working platform 10, thereby further simplifying the structure and making the overall structure of the machine more compact.

[0042] Combined with Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Figure 9The third bending mechanism 33 includes a third mounting plate 331, a second rotation driver 332, a second gear 333, a second rack 334 and a third pressing plate 335. The second rotation driver 332 is arranged at the relative center of the top of the third mounting plate 331, and its output end passes through the third mounting plate 331 and is located at the bottom of the third mounting plate 331. The second gear 333 is connected to the output end of the second rotation driver 332 and is located at the bottom of the third mounting plate 331. The left and right opposite sides of the second gear 333 are respectively engaged with a second rack 334, and the two second racks 334 are symmetrically slidably arranged on the two opposite sides of the bottom end of the third mounting plate 331 with the second gear 333 as the center. The two third pressing plates 335 are connected to the two second racks 334 in a one-to-one correspondence. The second rotary driver 332 can drive the second gear 333 to rotate, so that the two second racks 334 slide toward or away from each other on the third mounting plate 331, thereby driving the two third pressing plates 335 to synchronously approach or move away from their respective opposite long sides 202 to synchronously bend the two long sides 202.

[0043] Specifically, the bending device 30 also includes a linear module that drives the third bending mechanism 33 to move linearly in a vertical direction perpendicular to the working platform 10, and the third mounting plate 331 can be connected to the output end of the linear module. Preferably, the third mounting plate 331 is connected to the output end of the second linear module 35, and is arranged in a staggered manner with the second mounting plate 321 of the second bending mechanism 32, thereby further simplifying the structure and making the whole machine structure more compact. Preferably, the third mounting plate 331 is connected to the output end of the second linear module 35, and the second mounting plate 321 is installed on the third mounting plate 331, thereby further optimizing the structure and reducing the volume of the whole machine. In addition, when the packaging box 200 enters the machine from the side close to the second bending mechanism 32 and leaves the machine from the side with the safety grating 23, in order to avoid, the second bending mechanism 32 also includes a driver that drives the second mounting plate 321 to move linearly in the horizontal width direction of the working platform 10, so that the packaging box 200 before bending can be smoothly conveyed on the conveying device 20.

[0044] Combination Figures 10 to 12 The labeling device 40 includes a label receiving platform 41, a labeling head 42, a labeling machine 43 and a label supply tray 44. The label receiving platform 41 is provided with placement areas 411 and 412 corresponding to the shapes of the labels 300 and 400, and the labeling head 42 is provided with placement areas 421 and 422 corresponding to the shapes of the labels 300 and 400. For the convenience of description, Figure 10 The middle resettlement area 411 and the resettlement area 412 are indicated by dashed lines. Figure 11The resettlement area 421 and the resettlement area 422 are indicated by a dashed box. Then, the label receiving platform 41 can be driven by the third linear module 45 to move back and forth among the labeling machine 43, the labeling head 2, and the label supply tray 44, and is used to alternately transfer the label 300 received from the labeling machine 43 and the label 400 received from the label supply tray 44 to the lower part of the labeling head 42. The labeling head 42 can be driven by the driving module 46 to move back and forth between the label receiving platform 41 and the conveying device 20, and is used to alternately or synchronously attach the label 300 and the label 400 to the corresponding positions of the packaging box 200.

[0045] Combined with Figure 5 and Figure 12 , in order to further optimize the structure, the driving module 46 can be connected to the output end of the first linear module 34, specifically, it can be connected to the lower side end of the first mounting plate 311, so that the labeling head 42 can move back and forth between the label receiving platform 41 and the conveying device 20 under the drive of the first linear module 34 to complete the corresponding actions. When labeling the top of the packaging box 200, the driving module 46 is a linear module. When it is necessary to label the side of the packaging box 200, the driving module 46 further includes a rotary driver, so as to drive the labeling head 42 to rotate by 90°, so as to pick up and attach the label.

[0046] The following combines Figures 1 to 12 , and explains the working principle of the sealing machine 100 of the present invention:

[0047] After the equipment is started, when the packaging box 200 enters the machine, the sensor located at the starting end of the conveying device 20 sends a signal to the control system. Under the instruction of the control system, the second bending mechanism 32 moves laterally to avoid, and after the packaging box 200 passes, the second bending mechanism 32 resets; when the packaging box 200 is conveyed to the forming position 20a, the sensor located here sends a signal, and the conveying device 20 stops conveying the packaging box 200; the first bending mechanism 31 and the second bending mechanism 32 act synchronously to press and fold the two short sides 201 towards the direction of the box opening, so as to form an inner cover for protecting the products in the box once.

[0048] After that, the first bending mechanism 31 and the second bending mechanism 32 can reset, or can remain in the pressing position. The third bending mechanism 33 starts to act, and synchronously presses and folds the two long sides 202 towards the direction of the inner cover, so as to form a top cover for protecting the products in the box twice. During this process, the first bending mechanism 31 and the second bending mechanism 32 gradually reset; after the bending and forming, the bending device 30 sends a signal to the control system. Under the instruction of the control system, the third bending mechanism 33 resets or remains in the pressing position, and the labeling device 40 acts, so as to alternately or synchronously attach the label 300 and the label 400 to the corresponding positions of the packaging box 200;

[0049] After the labeling is completed, the labeling device 40 sends a signal to the control system. Under the instruction of the control system, the third bending mechanism 33 resets at this time, and the conveying device 20 conveys the bent and formed packaging box 200 towards the sealing position 20b; and during the process of the packaging box 200 entering and leaving the forming position 20a, the sealing device 50 located at the bottom operates to complete the sealing of a straight tape 500 at the center of the bottom cover 203; during the process of the packaging box 200 entering and leaving the sealing position 20b, the sealing device 50 located at the top operates to complete the sealing of a straight tape 500 at the center docking position of the top cover formed by the two long sides 202; when the top cover sealing is completed, the packaging box 200 is just conveyed to the safety grating 23 for discharging;

[0050] By continuously repeating the above operations, the automated assembly line operations of bending and forming, sealing, and attaching multiple labels to the packaging box 200 with double-layer covers can be achieved.

[0051] Compared with the prior art, the carton sealer 100 provided by the present invention rotates and moves relative to the packaging box 200 through the bending device 30 installed above the conveying device 20 and around the mouth of the packaging box 200, and correspondingly bends the two opposite short sides 201 and the two opposite long sides 202 at the box mouth towards the direction close to the box mouth to form an inner cover and a top cover for closing the box mouth, so as to efficiently achieve the bending and forming of the packaging box 200 with double-layer covers; and after the formed packaging box 200, the labeling device 40 installed beside the conveying device 20 moves linearly back and forth relative to the packaging box 200, and efficiently and automatically attaches the labels 300 and 400 with different identification functions to the packaging box 200. The whole machine has a simple structure and a reasonable layout, effectively shortening the moving stroke between devices, thereby realizing the automated assembly line operations of bending and forming, sealing, and attaching multiple labels to the packaging box 200, effectively improving the production efficiency, and correspondingly reducing the manufacturing cost.

[0052] The above-disclosed are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. Of course, the scope of rights of the present invention cannot be limited thereby. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the scope of the patent application of the present invention still fall within the scope covered by the present invention.
