[0012] Beneficial effects

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0014] 1. This invention uses multiple feeding components arranged in a way that allows for the free selection of tissue boxes in different material boxes for writing and marking as needed, thus increasing its applicability;

[0015] 2. By fixing multiple feeding components on top of the belt conveyor assembly, different feeding components can be switched at any time. When one feeding component fails, it will not affect the operation of other feeding components, resulting in higher reliability and improved marking efficiency of the combination box.

At this time, the inclined slide 36 is located at one end of the conveyor belt 211. After the tissue box 11 detaches from the conveyor belt 211, it automatically slides onto the inclined slide 36 and hangs on the upper stop bar 351 of the fixed inclined surface 35. Immediately afterwards, the transverse conveying motor 31 drives the inclined slide 36 to move towards the laser marking assembly 4, thereby transporting the tissue box 11 to below the laser marking assembly 4. Figure 4 As shown. At this time, the laser marking component 4 writes text or graphics on the tissue box 11. After writing is completed, the inclined slide 36 sends the tissue box 11 out. After the tissue box 11 exceeds the upper stop bar 351, it slides down onto the lower stop bar 352, as shown. Figure 5 As shown. Then, the transverse conveyor motor 31 drives the inclined slide 36 to move to the position shown. Figure 1 The initial position shown prepares for the delivery of the next tissue box 11. After each tissue box 11 is marked, the extension baffle 361 will push all the marked tissue boxes 11 a short distance, so that all tissue boxes 11 are arranged in sequence on the lower shelf 352 for the doctor to use.
