DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0046] The preferred scheme is shown in Figures 1 to 17 A packaging bag folding and sealing method, which adopts a folding and sealing device, the folding and sealing device includes a diagonal fork telescopic mechanism 401, a clamping plate lifting and rotating mechanism 402, and a folding plate mechanism 403. The diagonal fork telescopic mechanism 401 includes an obliquely arranged diagonal fork 401.1, which is driven to move by a driving mechanism. The clamping plate lifting and rotating mechanism 402 includes two groups of double clamping piece clamps 402.1, each of which is driven by a lifting mechanism and a rotating mechanism. The double clamping piece clamp 402.1 cooperates with the diagonal fork 401.1. The folding plate mechanism 403 includes a reversible folding plate.

[0047] The packaging bag 5 in the embodiment is a packaging paper bag, and the unfolded shape is a cuboid structure. The packaging paper bag is filled with gauze pieces. After the gauze pieces are filled into the bag, the opening needs to be sealed. The present application realizes multiple folding of the packaging paper bag by cooperation of the oblique fork telescopic mechanism 401, the clamping plate lifting and rotating mechanism 402 and the folding plate mechanism 403. The folding plate mechanism 403 is used to realize the third folding of the packaging bag. The folding plate is driven to rotate by a rotating motor, and the rotating angle of the folding plate is 180° each time. The previous process of the packaging bag folding and sealing method is the filling process. After the packaging bag is filled by the filling device, the packaging bag is moved to the working area of the packaging bag folding and sealing device by the mechanical hand clamp. As shown in Figure 1

[0048] Further, the oblique fork 401.1 includes two parallel rods, and the diameter of the rods is smaller than the maximum movable gap of the double-clamping-plate clamp 402.1. The oblique fork 401.1 is used to be obliquely inserted into the inner side of the packaging bag. The double-clamping-plate clamp 402.1 is driven to move upward by the lifting mechanism. The double-clamping-plate clamp 402.1 cooperates with the oblique fork 401.1 to fold the opening of the packaging bag for the first time. The oblique fork 401.1 is used to provide a reference edge for the first folding.

[0049] During the upward movement of the double-clamping-plate clamp 402.1, the packaging paper bag is folded. Since the oblique fork 401.1 provides a folding reference edge, the packaging paper bag is folded along the straight line where the oblique fork 401.1 is located for the first time.

[0050] Further, the blocking plate anti-falling mechanism 404 is further included. The blocking plate anti-falling mechanism 404 includes a blocking plate, and the blocking plate is driven to move by a gas cylinder.

[0051] The blocking plate is used to separate the gauze pieces and prevent the gauze pieces from falling out of the packaging paper bag. After the first folding of the packaging paper bag, the blocking plate of the blocking plate anti-falling mechanism 404 can be retracted. The blocking plate anti-falling mechanism 404 is a preferred scheme, and the purpose is to prevent the gauze pieces from falling. If the gauze pieces are filled relatively densely, the blocking plate anti-falling mechanism 404 can be omitted.

[0052] Further, the double-clamping-plate clamp 402.1 is an electric clamp or a pneumatic clamp. After the oblique fork 401.1 is retracted, the double-clamping-plate clamp 402.1 is used to clamp the packaging bag and fold the packaging bag for the second time by the rotating mechanism.

[0053] The double-clamping-plate clamp 402.1 in the present application is an electric clamp or a pneumatic clamp with adjustable gap. The two clamping plates in the double-clamping-plate clamp 402.1 are used to clamp the packaging paper bag and flip the packaging paper bag.

[0054] ​Further, the top of the two clamps of the double-clamp clamp 402.1 is in a triangular structure, and the hypotenuse of the triangle is the reference edge of the second folding.

[0055] The double-clamp clamp 402.1 is an important functional component of the application, and the lifting and rotating functions of the double-clamp clamp 402.1 can be achieved by using the existing mechanical hand, and the clamping function of the double-clamp clamp 402.1 is the same as that of the existing electric or pneumatic clamp; the difference of the double-clamp clamp 402.1 lies in that the clamping component is a triangular clamp structure, and the hypotenuse of the triangle is designed according to the size of the packaging bag.

[0056] Further, the positioning plate mechanism 405 is further provided, and the positioning plate mechanism 405 is provided with a movable positioning plate, the positioning plate is arranged opposite to the clamp plate lifting and rotating mechanism 402, and the positioning plate is used for cooperating with the folding plate mechanism 403 to perform the third folding on the packaging bag.

[0057] The width of the positioning plate is determined according to the width of the packaging bag, and the function of the positioning plate lies in that: first, the positioning plate presses the first two folded parts; second, the side edge of the positioning plate provides a reference edge for the third folding.

[0058] Further, the positioning plate of the positioning plate mechanism 405 is jointly acted by the vertical driving air cylinder and the horizontal driving air cylinder.

[0059] The positioning plate mechanism 405 can be arranged on the mechanical hand clamp 6 and moves together with the mechanical hand clamp 6, and the folding plate mechanism 403 in the application can be separately arranged beside the oblique fork telescopic mechanism 401, when the first two foldings are completed, the mechanical hand clamp 6 drives the packaging bag to move to the working area of the folding plate mechanism 403, the folding plate mechanism 403 is actuated to complete the third folding, and the positioning plate mechanism 405 is reset.
