Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of packaging, and in particular to a guardrail for lane-dividing and direction-changing transportation. Background Art

[0002] In the technical field where the packing structure is based on a one-piece carton, it is usually necessary to push the packaging object from the side into the pre-bent carton, and then achieve the purpose of sealing after the subsequent bending operation. Pushing the packaging object into the carton from the side requires a diverting conveyor guardrail, which is used to adjust the packaging object from one conveying direction to another. The existing diverting conveyor guardrail (such as patent number: US08118111) is made by a metal sheet bending process. After the device is finalized, the width of the area between the plates is fixed and used to convey the packaging objects. In actual production, it includes milk, beer, shampoo, etc. Since the size of the packaging object will gradually change with market demand, the length and width will change. Once the packaging object becomes wider or narrower, the width of the conveying area provided by the required diverting conveyor guardrail must be adaptively changed, otherwise the packaging object will not be able to be conveyed normally. The guardrail for lane-dividing and redirecting conveying in the prior art is not adjustable. When packaging objects of other widths need to be conveyed, it needs to be replaced with another new guardrail for lane-dividing and redirecting conveying of corresponding specifications, which inevitably leads to the defects of high cost and inconvenient operation. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to solve the shortcoming that the existing guardrail for lane-dividing and changing direction conveying cannot adjust the width of the conveying area, the present invention proposes a guardrail for lane-dividing and changing direction conveying, which can adjust the width of the conveying channel.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] The cam is connected to the guide rails at the bottom of the first connecting plate, and the guide rails are connected to the guide rails at the bottom of the first connecting plate, wherein a moving channel for the packaging object to move is formed between the guide rails, and the guide rails are divided into an inner plate, an outer plate, and a plurality of intermediate plates arranged between the inner plate and the outer plate. One end of the inner plate and one end of the intermediate plate are fixedly connected to the fixed plate, and the fixed plates are parallel to each other. One end of the outer plate and the intermediate plate are both provided with a movable plate, and the movable plate and the fixed plate are parallel and spaced apart. An output channel connected to the moving channel is formed between the movable plate and the fixed plate for the packaging object to be output. The cam is also provided with an adjustment mechanism to adjust the width of the output channel. The adjustment mechanism includes a plurality of first adjustment components and two second adjustment components. The first adjustment component and the second adjustment component both extend along the extension direction of the guide plate. A first adjustment component is provided above the intermediate plate and above the outer plate. The first adjustment component includes two mutually parallel first support plates, a sliding plate, The cam is fixedly mounted on the support frame, and the cam is adapted to engage with the first and second support members to move relative to each other.

[0006] Through the above-mentioned arrangement, the width of the conveying channel can be adjusted to accommodate packaging objects of different widths. Specifically, the packaging objects move along the motion channel into the output channel, and the packaging objects are finally output from the output channel and loaded into a box. Specifically, the first adjustment component is connected to the upper side of the movable plate, and the second adjustment component is connected to the upper side of the movable plate. When the first connecting member is tightened, the first limit block is pressed against the first support plate, and there is a large friction force between the first limit block and the first support plate, thereby fixing the first slider to the first support plate, that is, the movable plate is fixedly connected by the first slider, the first support plate, the first connecting plate, and the guide plate. When the second connecting member is tightened, the second limit block is pressed against the second support plate, and there is a large friction force between the second limit block and the second support plate, thereby fixing the second slider to the second support plate, that is, the movable plate is fixedly connected by the second slider, the second support plate, the connecting rod, the first connecting plate, and the guide plate, ultimately resulting in a fixed relative position of the movable plate and the guide plate, that is, the width of the output channel is fixed. When the width of the output channel needs to be adjusted, the first connecting member and the second connecting member are loosened so that the first slider can slide along the first support plate and the second slider can slide along the second support plate. When the movable plate is adjusted downward, the width of the output channel is reduced. On the contrary, when the movable plate is adjusted upward, the width of the output channel is increased. After the adjustment is completed, the first connecting member and the second connecting member are tightened again and the movable plate is fixed.

[0007] Furthermore, a second connecting plate is fixedly connected to the upper side of the first connecting plate, a third connecting plate is arranged above one end of the guide plate close to the fixed plate, the second connecting plate and the third connecting plate are parallel and perpendicular to the guide plate, the first support plate is fixedly connected between the second connecting plate and the third connecting plate, the outer plate is fixedly connected to the first connecting plate through the first connecting column, and the outer plate is fixedly connected to the third connecting plate through the second connecting column.

[0008] Through the above arrangement, the structure of the present application is more compact, and the first support plate is fixed above the guide plate through the second connecting plate and the third connecting plate.

[0009] Furthermore, a first reinforcing rib is fixedly connected to a side of the outer plate away from the middle plate. Through the above arrangement, the rigidity of the outer plate is increased, so that the movement of the packaged object passing through the outer plate is more stable.

[0010] Furthermore, the second support plate arranged above the inner plate is fixedly connected to the first connecting plate through the second connecting plate.

[0011] Furthermore, the lower side of the first slider is fixedly connected to the first fixing seat, the upper side of the movable plate is fixedly connected to the first connecting block, and the upper end of the first connecting block is fixedly connected to the first fixing seat by bolts.

[0012] Furthermore, the lower side of the second slider is fixedly connected to the second fixing seat, the upper side of the movable plate is fixedly connected to the second connecting block, and the upper end of the second connecting block is fixedly connected to the second fixing seat by bolts.

[0013] Furthermore, a second reinforcing rib is fixedly connected to the side of the fixed plate away from the output channel, and a third reinforcing rib is fixedly connected to the side of the movable plate away from the output channel, with the second reinforcing rib positioned below the third reinforcing rib. This arrangement increases the rigidity of the fixed plate and the movable plate. Furthermore, the staggered arrangement of the second and third reinforcing ribs maximizes the width of the output channel.

[0014] Furthermore, a fitting is provided at one end of the movable plate near the guide plate, and the fitting abuts against the guide plate so that the packaged object can enter the output channel from the moving channel. Through the above arrangement, the fitting facilitates the packaged object to enter the output channel, so that the packaged object can be moved from the moving channel to the output channel better.

[0015] Furthermore, the second adjustment assembly also includes a base plate arranged on the lower side of the second support plate, which is fixedly connected to the lower side of the second support plate by bolts. The base plate is provided with a long hole, and the second slider passes through the long hole to limit the sliding range of the second slider between the second support plates.

[0026] See also Figures 1 to 9 A guardrail for lane-dividing and direction-changing conveying includes a first connecting plate 11, a plurality of mutually parallel guide plates fixedly connected to the lower side of the first connecting plate 11, a movement channel 101 for the movement of packaging objects is formed between the guide plates, the guide plates are divided into an inner plate 12, an outer plate 13, and a plurality of intermediate plates 14 arranged between the inner plate 12 and the outer plate 13. One end of the inner plate 12 and one end of the intermediate plate 14 are fixedly connected to a fixed plate 15, and the fixed plates 15 are parallel to each other. One end of the outer plate 13 and the intermediate plate 14 are provided with a movable plate 16, and the movable plate 16 is parallel to the fixed plate 15 and spaced apart. An output channel 102 is formed between the fixed plate 15 and the moving channel 101 for outputting the packaging objects. The lane-dividing and redirecting conveying guardrail also includes an adjustment mechanism to adjust the width of the output channel 102. The adjustment mechanism includes a plurality of first adjustment components 17 and two second adjustment components 18. The first adjustment components 17 and the second adjustment components 18 both extend along the extension direction of the guide plate. A first adjustment component 17 is provided above the middle plate 14 and above the outer plate 13. The first adjustment component 17 includes two mutually parallel first support plates 171 and a first sliding connection between the first support plates 171. Slider 172, one end of the movable plate 16 close to the guide plate is fixedly connected to the first slider 172, a first limit block 173 is provided on the upper side of the first slider 172, the first limit block 173 and the first slider 172 are connected by a first connecting member 174, the first limit block 173 and the first support plate 171 abut to prevent the first slider 172 and the first support plate 171 from sliding relative to each other, one of the second adjustment components 18 is fixedly connected to the first connecting plate 11 and is located above the inner plate 12, the other second adjustment component 18 is located at the end of the movable plate 16 away from the guide plate, between the second adjustment components 18 Fixedly connected by a connecting rod 175, the second adjusting assembly 18 includes two second support plates 181 parallel to each other, a plurality of second sliders 182 slidably connected between the second support plates 181, the movable plate 16 and the second slider 182 are fixedly connected, and a second limit block 183 is provided on the upper side of the second slider 182. The second limit block 183 and the second slider 182 are connected by a second connecting member 184. The second limit block 183 abuts against the second support plate 181 to prevent relative sliding between the second slider 182 and the second support plate 181. The upper side of the fixed plate 15 is fixedly connected to the second support plate 181.

[0027] Through the above arrangement, the width of the conveying channel can be adjusted to accommodate packaging objects of different widths. Specifically, the packaging objects move along the motion channel 101 into the output channel 102, and the packaging objects are finally output from the output channel 102 and placed in a box. Specifically, the first adjustment component 17 is connected to the upper side of the movable plate 16, and the second adjustment component 18 is connected to the upper side of the movable plate 16. When the first connecting member 174 is tightened, the first limit block 173 is pressed against the first support plate 171. There is a large friction force between the first limit block 173 and the first support plate 171, so that the first slider 172 is fixed to the first support plate 171. That is, the movable plate 16 is fixedly connected by the first slider 172, the first support plate 171, the first connecting plate 11 and the guide plate. Then, when the second connecting member 184 is tightened, the second limiting block 183 is pressed against the second support plate 181. A large friction force exists between the second limiting block 183 and the second support plate 181, thereby fixing the second slider 182 to the second support plate 181. That is, the movable plate 16 is fixedly connected via the second slider 182, the second support plate 181, the connecting rod 175, the first connecting plate 11, and the guide plate. Ultimately, the relative positions of the movable plate 16 and the guide plate are fixed, that is, the width of the output channel 102 is fixed. When the width of the output channel 102 needs to be adjusted, the first connecting member 174 and the second connecting member 184 are loosened, so that the first slider 172 can slide along the first support plate 171, and the second slider 182 can slide along the second support plate 181. See Figure 9 When the movable plate 16 is adjusted downward, the width of the output channel 102 is reduced. On the contrary, when the movable plate 16 is adjusted upward, the width of the output channel 102 is increased. After the adjustment, the first connecting member 174 and the second connecting member 184 are tightened again and the movable plate 16 is fixed.
