Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of packaging equipment, and in particular discloses a vertical automatic box opening machine. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of industrial production, the requirements for packaging efficiency and quality are getting higher and higher. The traditional carton unpacking, folding and gluing processes often rely on manual operation, which is not only inefficient but also labor-intensive. Manual operation is also prone to errors, resulting in unstable packaging quality and high scrap rate. At the same time, the folding and gluing operations are often not precise enough, and problems such as inadequate folding and uneven gluing are prone to occur. The feeding mechanism is also relatively simple, making it difficult to adapt to cartons of different specifications and unable to achieve precise positioning. In addition, the existing unpacking equipment lacks versatility and flexibility, cannot adapt well to cartons of various sizes, and is difficult to meet different production needs. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies in the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a vertical automatic box opening machine.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, a vertical automatic carton opening machine device of the present invention includes a base, a feeding mechanism, a robot arranged on the base, a folding mechanism and a gluing mechanism, the feeding mechanism has a vertical material rack for storing and conveying vertical folding cartons, the vertical folding cartons are stored vertically in the vertical material rack, an actuator unit is provided on the output end of the robot, the folding mechanism has a first folding assembly, two second folding assemblies reciprocatingly arranged on both sides of the first folding assembly and two third driving units driving the two second folding assemblies, and the gluing mechanism is arranged at the end of the folding mechanism; the robot drives the actuator unit to pick up the side of the vertical folding carton stored in the vertical material rack and open it into a U-shaped state, the actuator unit drives the opened box to pass through the first folding assembly and the two second folding assemblies in turn, the first folding assembly abuts against the small hinges on the front and rear sides of the folded box, the two second folding assemblies are close to each other and abut against the large hinges on the left and right sides of the folded box, and the gluing mechanism is used to tape the box after folding.

[0005] It realizes a fully automated process from feeding, unpacking, folding covers to gluing, greatly improving production efficiency and reducing the time and labor intensity of manual operation. The folding cover mechanism is reasonably designed. The first folding cover assembly can effectively contact the small flaps on the front and back sides of the folding box body. The two second folding cover assemblies are driven by the third drive unit to approach each other and accurately contact the large flaps on the left and right sides of the folding box body, ensuring the quality and accuracy of the folding covers. The reciprocating second folding cover assembly can adapt to cartons of different sizes, improving the versatility of the equipment. The vertical material rack is used to store and convey vertical folding cartons. The vertical storage method makes the cartons more stable during transportation and not easy to tip over or deform, ensuring the reliability of feeding.

[0006] Furthermore, the feeding mechanism has a first feeding assembly and a second feeding assembly arranged on the vertical material rack, the first feeding assembly includes a fixed limit plate arranged on the vertical material rack, a reciprocating first limit plate and a first driving unit driving the first limit plate; the vertical material rack has a base frame, the second feeding assembly includes a bearing frame arranged on the base frame and reciprocating, and a second driving unit driving the bearing frame, a second limit plate is provided on the bearing frame, the second limit plate reciprocates with the bearing frame, the fixed limit plate and the reciprocating first limit plate and the second limit plate jointly resist and limit cartons of different specifications; the movement direction of the first limit plate and the movement direction of the second limit plate are cross-arranged to form a first angle, and the plane of the vertical material rack used for storing materials and the horizontal plane are cross-arranged to form a second angle.

[0007] The fixed limit plate, the reciprocating first limit plate and the first drive unit in the first feeding assembly cooperate with the support frame, the second drive unit and the second limit plate on the support frame in the second feeding assembly to jointly resist and limit cartons of different specifications. This enables the carton opening machine to adapt to cartons of various sizes, improves the versatility and flexibility of the equipment, and meets different production needs. The intersection of the first limit plate and the second limit plate forms a first angle, and the plane of the vertical material rack used for material storage and the horizontal plane are cross-set to form a second angle, and the sum of the first angle and the second angle is 90°. This special angle design can ensure that the carton is accurately positioned during the feeding process, prevent the carton from being offset or misplaced during the transportation process, and provide a stable foundation for subsequent operations such as unpacking, folding and gluing.

[0008] Furthermore, a support frame and a guide rod are provided on the base frame. The support frame is provided between the first limit plate and the fixed limit plate for supporting the carton. The guide rod is provided between the fixed limit plate and the support frame. A pressure plate for resisting and pressing multiple folding cartons is slidably provided on the guide rod.

[0009] During the process of cartons being transported from the vertical material rack, the support frame can ensure that the cartons enter the subsequent unpacking process in a stable state. The setting of the guide rod plays a good guiding role. The pressing plate slides on the guide rod and can accurately contact the folded cartons, so that the cartons can be neatly arranged and in a stable position during the feeding process, reducing gaps and shaking, and avoiding confusion or misalignment. This can improve the accuracy of carton feeding and ensure that each carton can accurately enter the unpacking mechanism, thereby improving the quality and efficiency of unpacking.

[0010] Furthermore, the robot includes a control console arranged on a base, and a robotic arm unit arranged on the control console. A central control unit is integrated in the control console, and the central control unit is electrically connected to the robotic arm unit and the actuator unit for controlling the unpacking operation; the robotic arm unit has multiple joints and multiple corresponding arms, and each joint is rotatably connected to the arm in turn. The central control unit controls the multi-degree-of-freedom movement of the actuator unit via the robotic arm unit. A touch display screen electrically connected to the central control unit is also provided on the control console, and a user interacts with the touch display screen to control the working parameters of the robotic arm unit and the actuator unit.

[0011] The central control unit in the console is electrically connected to the robot unit and the actuator unit, which can achieve precise control of the unpacking operation. The robot unit has multiple joints and arms, which can achieve multi-degree-of-freedom movement. This allows the actuator unit to operate at different positions and angles, adapt to various complex unpacking tasks, and improve the flexibility and adaptability of the equipment. The touch screen on the console is electrically connected to the central control unit. The user can interact with the equipment through the touch screen, conveniently control the working parameters of the robot unit and the actuator unit, and improve the efficiency and quality of production. The central control unit can monitor the operating status of the robot unit and the actuator unit in real time, and display the working parameters and operating status of the equipment to the user through the touch screen.

[0012] Furthermore, the robotic arm unit has a first joint, a second joint, a first arm, a third joint, a fourth joint, a second arm, a fifth joint, a sixth joint, and a seventh joint which are rotatably arranged on the console in sequence, and the seventh joint is rotatably connected to the actuator unit; the rotation angle of each joint is 360°, and the main body of each joint and each arm is a cylindrical structure.

[0013] Multiple joints are connected in rotation in sequence, and the rotation angle of each joint is 360°, so that the robot arm unit can achieve full range of motion. This provides great flexibility for the actuator unit, which can be unpacked at different positions and angles to adapt to various complex working environments. The cylindrical joints and arms have good strength and stability, can withstand large loads and impact forces, and ensure the reliability and durability of the equipment. The 360° rotation angle and multi-degree-of-freedom movement enable the robot arm unit to achieve precise motion control. The central control unit can accurately control the rotation angle and speed of each joint, thereby achieving precise positioning and operation of the actuator unit and improving the accuracy and quality of unpacking.

[0014] The rotation axes between the first joint and the second joint are perpendicular, the rotation axes of the second joint and the third joint are both perpendicular to the axis of the first arm, and the third joint and the fourth joint rotate coaxially; the rotation axes of the fourth joint and the fifth joint are both perpendicular to the axis of the second arm, the rotation axes between the fifth joint and the sixth joint are perpendicular, and the rotation axes between the sixth joint and the seventh joint are perpendicular.

[0015] Furthermore, the actuator unit has an actuator bracket connected to the end of the robot, on which are provided a first suction plate, a second suction plate rotatably connected to the first suction plate, a fourth driving unit for driving the second suction plate to rotate relative to the first suction plate, and a vacuum device; the first suction plate and the second suction plate are both provided with a suction piece for sucking the carton, and the vacuum device is connected to the suction piece for adjusting the suction force of the suction piece for sucking the carton.

[0016] The design of the first suction plate and the second suction plate, as well as the function of the second suction plate being able to rotate relative to the first suction plate, enable the actuator unit to flexibly adapt to cartons of different shapes and sizes. For some cartons of irregular shapes, the angle of the second suction plate can be adjusted to better fit the surface of the carton to ensure the stability of suction. The suction pieces on the first suction plate and the second suction plate can adjust the suction force through a vacuum. This enables the actuator unit to adjust the suction force according to factors such as the weight and material of the carton, ensuring that the carton will not fall due to too little suction, nor will it be damaged due to too much suction during the process of moving the carton.

[0017] Furthermore, the folding cover mechanism has a folding cover bracket arranged on the base, the first folding cover assembly includes a first folding cover member and a second folding cover member arranged on the folding cover bracket and spaced from each other, the second folding cover member is between the first folding cover member and the gluing mechanism and the two folding cover members are located at the same horizontal height, and a space for accommodating the folding pages or folding covers of the carton is provided between the first folding cover member and the second folding cover member; the two second folding cover assemblies have two third folding cover members arranged on both sides of the first folding cover member, and two driving members are provided on the side parts of the folding cover bracket extending to both sides of the first folding cover member, and the output end of the driving member is connected to the third folding cover member for driving the third folding cover member to approach or move away from the first folding cover member.

[0018] The first folding cover member and the second folding cover member are located at the same level, and can sequentially resist and fold the small flaps on the front and back sides of the box body, thereby realizing efficient flap folding operation. The avoidance space between the two folding cover members can accommodate the flaps of the carton, avoiding interference during the flap folding process and ensuring the smooth flap folding. The two third folding cover members can approach or move away from the first folding cover member under the action of the driving member, thereby resisting and folding the large flaps on the left and right sides of the box body. This design can adapt to cartons of different sizes and improve the versatility of the equipment.

[0019] Furthermore, a guide plate is provided on the side of the folding cover bracket away from the second folding cover member, and one end of the guide plate close to the first folding cover assembly is bent downward and arranged to cooperate with the carton to fold the cover, and two folding cover rods arranged on the folding cover bracket are provided on both sides of the guide plate. The two folding cover rods extend from the guide plate to the two third folding cover members respectively and extend to the bottom of the two third folding cover members, the first folding cover member, the second folding cover member and the guide plate are all at the same height, and the carton opened by the actuator unit passes through the first folding cover member, the second folding cover member and the guide plate in sequence to be folded, and the maximum distance between the two folding cover rods is greater than the maximum distance between the two third folding cover members.

[0020] The guide plate is bent downward and can cooperate with the flaps of the carton to fold, providing a clear guide for the folding of the carton. When the carton passes through the folding mechanism, the flaps can be smoothly guided to the correct folding position along the guide plate, improving the accuracy and consistency of the folding. Two folding rods extend from the guide plate to the two third folding parts respectively and are located below the third folding parts, further strengthening the guiding effect on the folding of the carton. The folding rods can limit the position of the flaps to ensure that the flaps can be accurately folded when passing through the first folding part, the second folding part and the guide plate. The first folding part, the second folding part and the guide plate are at the same height, so that the flaps of the carton can pass through these parts in sequence and be quickly folded. This continuous folding process reduces the time and steps of folding and improves the folding efficiency.

[0021] Furthermore, the gluing mechanism comprises a gluing frame arranged on a base, on which a first gluing component, a second gluing component, a tape roller and a cutter component are rotatably provided, the tape roller sleeve is provided with an external tape for providing tape to the first gluing component, the first gluing component, the second gluing component and the cutter component are all provided with corresponding telescopic structures, when the carton passes through the first gluing component, the second gluing component and the cutter component in sequence, the first gluing component is telescoped and extended due to the contact with the carton so that the tape is attached to the corresponding starting gluing position of the carton body, the cutter assembly is telescoped and / or reset due to the contact and / or separation with the carton to cut the tape, and the second gluing component is telescoped and extended due to the contact with the carton so that the remaining cut tape is completely attached to the corresponding gluing position of the carton body.

[0022] The first gluing component retracts and retracts under the impact of the carton, and sticks the tape to the corresponding starting gluing position of the carton. The second gluing component retracts and retracts under the impact of the carton, so that the remaining tape that has been cut is completely stuck to the corresponding gluing position of the carton, ensuring the firmness and integrity of the tape sticking. The cutter component retracts and retracts and / or resets to cut the tape when the carton impacts and / or detaches, and can accurately control the length of the tape to avoid waste and the problem of the tape being too long or too short.

[0023] Furthermore, a plurality of side wheels for cooperating with the gluing operation are provided on one side of the gluing frame, and the plurality of side wheels assist in guiding the carton to pass smoothly through the gluing mechanism; the second gluing component comprises a rotating plate rotatably arranged on the gluing frame, a reset spring connected to the gluing frame and a gluing roller rotatably arranged on the rotating plate, and the rotating plate and the reset spring form a telescopic structure, the carton body contacts and / or separates from the gluing roller, and the rotating plate causes the reset spring to extend and / or reset, and the carton body contacts and / or separates from the first gluing component, the second gluing component and the cutter component in turn to realize automatic tape sticking and tape cutting.

[0024] Multiple side wheels assist in guiding the carton to pass through the gluing mechanism smoothly, which can ensure that the carton maintains a stable route during the gluing process, avoid inaccurate gluing position due to shaking or offset, and thus significantly improve the gluing accuracy. When the carton body contacts the first gluing component, the expansion and contraction of the return spring can be adjusted according to the pressure of the carton to ensure that the gluing force is moderate, so that the tape will not be loosely pasted, and the carton will not be damaged due to excessive pressure. The carton body contacts and / or disengages from the first gluing component, the second gluing component, and the cutter component in turn, realizing the continuous process of automatic tape application and tape removal. This design does not require manual intervention, greatly improves production efficiency, and can meet the needs of large-scale production. The rotating design of the rotating plate and the elastic characteristics of the return spring enable the first gluing component to adapt to the carton surface at different angles and positions, improving the flexibility and versatility of the equipment. Whether it is a flat carton or a carton with a certain curvature, a good gluing effect can be achieved.

[0025] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: automated and efficient production, realizing an automated process from feeding, unpacking, folding lids to gluing, greatly improving production efficiency, reducing manual operation time and labor intensity, and the coordinated work of various mechanisms ensures stable operation of the entire unpacking process and reduces the probability of failures; precise operation, the folding lid mechanism and the gluing mechanism are reasonably designed, and can accurately complete the folding lid and gluing operations, the feeding mechanism can adapt to cartons of different specifications and can accurately position, the multi-joint mechanical arm unit cooperates with the actuator unit with the first suction plate and the second suction plate that rotate mutually, and can accurately and quickly pick up the folded cartons and open them; flexible and universal, the design of various parts of the equipment is adjustable, and can adapt to cartons of various sizes, thereby improving the versatility and flexibility of the equipment and meeting different production needs.

[0039] In order to facilitate the understanding of those skilled in the art, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings. The contents mentioned in the implementation modes are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0040] See also Figures 1 to 8As shown, a vertical automatic carton opening machine device of the present invention comprises a base 1, a feeding mechanism 2, a robot 3 arranged on the base 1, a cover folding mechanism 5 and a glue sticking mechanism 6, the feeding mechanism 2 has a vertical material rack 21 for storing and conveying vertical folding cartons, the vertical folding cartons are stored in a vertical shape in the vertical material rack 21, an actuator unit 4 is arranged on the output end of the robot 3, the cover folding mechanism 5 comprises a first cover folding component 52, two second cover folding components 53 arranged on both sides of the first cover folding component 52 for reciprocating motion, and a drive unit 4 for driving the two second cover folding components 53. The robot 3 drives the actuator unit 4 to pick up the side of the vertical folding carton stored in the vertical material rack and open it into a U-shaped state. The actuator unit 4 drives the opened box to pass through the first folding cover assembly 52 and the two second folding cover assemblies 53 in turn. The first folding cover assembly 52 contacts the small hinges on the front and rear sides of the folding box. The two second folding cover assemblies 53 are close to each other and contact the large hinges on the left and right sides of the folding box. The gluing mechanism 6 is used to tape the folded box.

[0041] In actual use, a fully automated process from feeding, unpacking, folding covers to gluing is realized, which greatly improves production efficiency and reduces the time and labor intensity of manual operation. The folding cover mechanism 5 is reasonably designed. The first folding cover component 52 can effectively resist the small flaps on the front and rear sides of the folding box body. The two second folding cover components 53 are driven by the third driving unit 54 to approach each other and accurately resist the large flaps on the left and right sides of the folding box body, ensuring the quality and accuracy of the folding covers. The reciprocating second folding cover component 53 can adapt to cartons of different sizes, improving the versatility of the equipment. The vertical material rack 21 is used to store and transport vertical folding cartons. The vertical storage method makes the cartons more stable during transportation and not easy to tip over or deform, ensuring the reliability of feeding.

[0042] Specifically, the feeding mechanism 2 has a first feeding assembly 22 and a second feeding assembly 23 arranged on the vertical material rack 21, the first feeding assembly 22 includes a fixed limit plate 221 arranged on the vertical material rack 21, a first limit plate 222 that reciprocates, and a first driving unit 223 that drives the first limit plate 222; the vertical material rack 21 has a base frame 211, the second feeding assembly 23 has a bearing frame 231 that reciprocates on the base frame 211, a second driving unit 232 that drives the bearing frame 231, and the bearing frame 2 A second limiting plate 234 is provided on 31, and the second limiting plate 234 reciprocates with the supporting frame 231. The fixed limiting plate 221 and the reciprocating first limiting plate 222 and the second limiting plate 234 jointly resist and limit cartons of different specifications; the movement direction of the first limiting plate 222 and the movement direction of the second limiting plate 234 are cross-arranged to form a first angle 27, and the plane of the vertical material rack 21 for storing materials is cross-arranged with the horizontal plane to form a second angle 28, and the sum of the first angle 27 and the second angle 28 is 90°.

[0043] In actual use, the fixed limiting plate 221, the reciprocating first limiting plate 222 and the first driving unit 223 in the first feeding assembly 22 cooperate with the supporting frame 231, the second driving unit 232 and the second limiting plate 234 on the supporting frame 231 in the second feeding assembly 23, and can jointly resist and limit cartons of different specifications. This enables the carton opening machine equipment to adapt to cartons of various sizes, improves the versatility and flexibility of the equipment, and meets different production needs. The intersection of the first limiting plate 222 and the second limiting plate 234 forms a first angle 27, and the plane of the vertical material rack 21 used for storing materials and the horizontal plane are cross-set to form a second angle 28, and the sum of the first angle 27 and the second angle 28 is 90°. With the setting of the second angle 28, after a plurality of folding cartons are placed on the storage plane of the vertical rack 21, the plurality of folding cartons automatically slide down along the storage plane of the vertical rack 21 and abut against the second feeding assembly 23 under the action of their own gravity, so that the robot 3 can take out the folding cartons to be unpacked at the same position of the feeding assembly 23 each time, thereby improving the unpacking accuracy. This special angle design can ensure that the cartons are accurately positioned during the feeding process, prevent the cartons from being offset or misplaced during the conveying process, and provide a stable foundation for subsequent unpacking, cover folding and gluing operations.

[0044] In this embodiment, the first limiting plate 222 is bent at one end close to the feeding direction of the carton to form a stopping portion 2221, and the stopping portion 2221 is provided with a stopping member 2222 for contacting the carton, and the second limiting plate 234 is provided with a fixing block 2341, and the fixing block 2341 is provided with an adjusting member 2342, and a locking piece 2343 is provided between the fixing block 2341 and the supporting frame 231, and the fixing block 2341 is fixed to the supporting frame 231 by the adjusting member 2342 contacting the locking piece 2343.

[0045] In actual use, the stopper 2221 and the stopper 2222 of the first limit plate 222 can provide effective blocking and positioning in the feeding direction of the carton, prevent the carton from excessively moving forward or offsetting during the feeding process, and ensure that the position of the carton during the feeding process is accurate and stable. The combination of the fixed block 2341, the adjusting member 2342 and the locking plate 2343 on the second limit plate 234 enables the second limit plate 234 to be firmly fixed on the carrier 231. During the operation of the equipment, it will not loosen or shift due to vibration or other external forces, thereby ensuring the reliability of the feeding mechanism 2. For the first limit plate 222, the design of the stopper 2221 can be adjusted according to cartons of different specifications. By the adjusting member 2342 contacting the locking plate 2343, the fixed block 2341 can be fixed at different positions on the carrier 231, thereby adapting to cartons of different widths. This adjustability enables the equipment to adapt to the production of cartons of different specifications, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0046] Specifically, a support frame 24 and a guide rod 25 are provided on the base frame 211. The support frame 24 is provided between the first limiting plate 222 and the fixed limiting plate 221 for supporting the carton. The guide rod 25 is provided between the fixed limiting plate 221 and the support frame 24. A pressure plate 26 for resisting and pressing multiple folding cartons is slidably provided on the guide rod 25.

[0047] Preferably, the pressing plate 26 can be installed with a counterweight block. When multiple folding cartons are placed on the storage plane of the vertical material rack 21, the pressing plate 26 can contact the uppermost folding carton. Each time the robot 3 takes away the lowermost folding carton, under the gravity resistance of the pressing plate 26, all the remaining cartons carried by the storage plane of the vertical material rack 21 automatically slide down and contact the second feeding assembly 23. The counterweight of the pressing plate 26 is used to prevent the folding cartons from tipping over and sticking to the storage plane of the vertical material rack 21.

[0048] In actual use, when cartons are conveyed from the vertical material rack 21, the support frame 24 can ensure that the cartons enter the subsequent unpacking process in a stable state. The setting of the guide rod 25 plays a good guiding role. The pressing plate 26 slides on the guide rod 25 and can accurately contact the folded cartons, so that the cartons can be neatly arranged and in a stable position during the feeding process, reducing gaps and shaking, and avoiding confusion or misalignment. This can improve the accuracy of carton feeding and ensure that each carton can accurately enter the unpacking mechanism, thereby improving the quality and efficiency of unpacking.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first driving unit 223 has a screw 2231 which is threadedly engaged with the first limiting plate 222, one end of the screw 2231 is provided with a handle 2232, and the other end is rotatably connected to the support frame 24; the second driving unit 232 has a guide rail 2321 arranged on the base frame 211, the guide rail 2321 is provided with a slider 2322 connected to the supporting frame 231, and the slider 2322 is provided with a locking member 2323 for locking the slider 2322 and the guide rail 2321.

[0050] In actual use, the position of the first limit plate 222 can be accurately adjusted by rotating the handle 2232 through the screw connection between the screw rod 2231 and the first limit plate 222.

[0059] Specifically, the actuator unit 4 has an actuator bracket 41 connected to the end of the robot 3, and the actuator bracket 41 is provided with a first suction plate 42, a second suction plate 43 rotatably connected to the first suction plate 42, a fourth driving unit 44 driving the second suction plate 43 to rotate relative to the first suction plate 42, and a vacuum device 45; the first suction plate 42 and the second suction plate 43 are both provided with a suction piece 46 for sucking the carton, and the vacuum device 45 is connected to the suction piece 46 for adjusting the suction force of the suction piece 46 to suck the carton.

[0060] In actual use, the design of the first suction plate 42 and the second suction plate 43, as well as the function that the second suction plate 43 can rotate relative to the first suction plate 42, enable the actuator unit 4 to flexibly adapt to cartons of different shapes and sizes. For some irregularly shaped cartons, the angle of the second suction plate 43 can be adjusted to better fit the surface of the carton to ensure the stability of suction. The suction member 46 on the first suction plate 42 and the second suction plate 43 can adjust the suction force through the vacuum device 45. This enables the actuator unit 4 to adjust the suction force according to factors such as the weight and material of the carton, ensuring that the carton will not fall due to too little suction, nor will it be damaged due to too much suction during the process of transporting the carton.

[0061] In this embodiment, the first suction plate 42 is provided with a strip hole 421 for installing the suction member 46 and a support member 422 for resisting the supporting box body.

The reciprocating motion of the power rod 442 driven by the cylinder 441 is converted into the rotation of the second suction plate 43 via the rotating member 443 and the connecting member 444.

[0064] In actual use, the rotational connection between the rotating member 443 and the connecting member 444 can convert the linear motion of the power rod 442 into the rotational motion of the second suction plate 43, so that the rotation of the second suction plate 43 is smoother and more accurate. The response speed of the cylinder 441 is fast, and the reciprocating motion of the power rod 442 can be achieved in a short time, so as to quickly adjust the angle of the second suction plate 43.

[0065] Specifically, the folding cover mechanism 5 has a folding cover bracket 51 arranged on the base 1, and the first folding cover assembly 52 includes a first folding cover member 521 and a second folding cover member 522 arranged on the folding cover bracket 51 and spaced from each other, the second folding cover member 522 is between the first folding cover member 521 and the gluing mechanism 6, and the two folding cover members are located at the same horizontal height, and a space for accommodating the folding pages of the carton is provided between the first folding cover member 521 and the second folding cover member 522; the two second folding cover assemblies 53 have two third folding cover members 531 arranged on both sides of the first folding cover member 521, and two driving members 532 are provided on the side portions of the folding cover bracket 51 extending to both sides of the first folding cover member 521, and the output end of the driving member 532 is connected to the third folding cover member 531 for driving the third folding cover member 531 to approach or move away from the first folding cover member 521.

[0066] In actual use, the first folding cover member 521 and the second folding cover member 522 are located at the same horizontal height, and can sequentially resist and fold the small hinges on the front and back sides of the box body, thereby achieving efficient folding operation. The avoidance space between the two folding cover members can accommodate the hinges of the carton, avoid interference during the folding process, and ensure the smooth folding. Under the action of the driving member 532, the two third folding cover members 531 can approach or move away from the first folding cover member 521, thereby resisting and folding the large hinges on the left and right sides of the box body. The driving member 532 is set as a folding cover cylinder in this embodiment. The folding cover cylinder has the characteristics of fast response speed and high repetition accuracy in repeated movement over a short distance, which can better meet the folding cover requirements here. This design can adapt to cartons of different sizes and improve the versatility of the equipment.

[0067] Specifically, a guide plate 55 is provided on the side of the folding cover bracket 51 away from the second folding cover member 522. The end of the guide plate 55 close to the first folding cover assembly is bent downward and is arranged to cooperate with the folding of the carton for folding. Two folding cover rods 56 arranged on the folding cover bracket 51 are provided on both sides of the guide plate 55. The two folding cover rods 56 extend from the guide plate 55 to the two third folding cover members 531 respectively and extend to the bottom of the two third folding cover members 531. The first folding cover member 521, the second folding cover member 522 and the guide plate 55 are all at the same height. The folding leaves of the carton opened by the actuator unit 4 are folded by passing through the first folding cover member 521, the second folding cover member 522 and the guide plate 55 in turn. The maximum distance between the two folding cover rods 56 is greater than the maximum distance between the two third folding cover members 531.

[0068] In actual use, the guide plate 55 is bent downward, and can cooperate with the flaps of the carton to fold and cover, providing a clear guide for the folding of the carton. When the carton passes through the folding mechanism 5, the flaps can be smoothly guided to the correct folding position along the guide plate 55, thereby improving the accuracy and consistency of the folding. Two folding rods 56 extend from the guide plate 55 to the two third folding members 531 respectively and are located below the third folding members 531, further strengthening the guiding effect on the folding of the carton. The folding rods 56 can limit the position of the flaps, ensuring that the flaps can be accurately folded and covered when passing through the first folding member 521, the second folding member 522 and the guide plate 55. The first folding member 521, the second folding member 522 and the guide plate 55 are at the same height, so that the flaps of the carton can be quickly folded and covered by these components in sequence. This continuous folding process reduces the time and steps of folding and improves the folding efficiency.

[0069] Specifically, the gluing mechanism 6 has a gluing frame 61 arranged on the base 1, and the gluing frame 61 is rotatably provided with a first gluing component 62, a second gluing component 63, a tape roller 64 and a cutter component 65. The tape roller 64 is sleeved with an external tape for providing tape to the first gluing component 62. The first gluing component 62, the second gluing component 63 and the cutter component 65 are all provided with corresponding telescopic structures 66. When the carton passes through the first gluing component 62, the second gluing component 63 and the cutter component 65 in sequence, the first gluing component 62 is telescoped due to the contact with the carton so that the tape is attached to the corresponding starting gluing position of the box body, the cutter component 65 is telescoped and / or reset due to the contact and / or separation with the carton to cut the tape, and the second gluing component 63 is telescoped due to the contact with the carton so that the remaining tape is completely attached to the corresponding gluing position of the box body.

[0070] In actual use, the first gluing component 62 is extended and retracted under the impact of the carton, and the tape is attached to the corresponding starting gluing position of the box body. The second gluing component 63 is extended and retracted under the impact of the carton, so that the cut remaining tape is completely attached to the corresponding gluing position of the box body, ensuring the firmness and integrity of the tape attachment. The cutter component 65 is extended and retracted and / or reset to cut the tape when the carton impacts and / or detaches, and can accurately control the length of the tape to avoid waste and the problem of the tape being too long or too short.

[0071] Specifically, one side of the gluing frame 61 is provided with a plurality of side wheels 67 for cooperating with the gluing operation, and the plurality of side wheels 67 assist in guiding the carton to pass smoothly through the gluing mechanism 6; the second gluing component 63 has a rotating plate 631 rotatably arranged on the gluing frame 61, and the rotating plate 631 is provided with a return spring 632 connected to the gluing frame 61, and a gluing roller 633 is rotatably arranged, and the rotating plate 631 and the return spring 632 form a telescopic structure 66, and the carton body contacts and / or disengages from the gluing roller 633, and the rotating plate 631 causes the return spring 632 to extend and / or reset, and the carton body contacts and / or disengages from the first gluing component 62, the second gluing component 63 and the cutter component 65 in turn to realize automatic tape application and tape cutting.

[0072] In actual use, multiple side wheels 67 assist in guiding the carton to pass through the gluing mechanism smoothly, which can ensure that the carton maintains a stable route during the gluing process, avoid inaccurate gluing position due to shaking or offset, and thus significantly improve the gluing accuracy. When the carton body contacts the first gluing component 62, the expansion and contraction of the return spring 622 can be adjusted according to the pressure of the carton to ensure that the gluing force is moderate, neither the tape is not firmly pasted, nor the carton is damaged due to excessive pressure. The carton body is in conflict with and / or disengaged from the first gluing component 62, the second gluing component 63 and the cutter component 65 in turn, realizing the continuous process of automatic tape pasting and tape cutting. This design does not require manual intervention, greatly improves production efficiency, and can meet the needs of large-scale production. The rotating design of the rotating plate 631 and the elastic characteristics of the return spring 632 enable the second gluing component 63 to adapt to the carton surface at different angles and positions, improving the flexibility and versatility of the equipment. Whether it is a flat carton or a carton with a certain curvature, a good gluing effect can be achieved.

[0073] Working principle of the present invention: The vertical material rack 21 of the feeding mechanism 2 is provided with a plurality of adjustable structural designs for limiting the vertical folding cartons, which can feed the vertical folding cartons stably and accurately.

The rotation design of multiple joints and multiple arms, the 360° rotation angle of multiple joints, and the structural design of multiple joints and multiple arms with cylindrical structures make the robot arm unit 32 fast and accurate, with strong load-bearing capacity and high repetitive accuracy. The second suction plate 43 of the actuator unit 4 driven by the cylinder 441 can be quickly rotated at any angle relative to the first suction plate 42, and the suction member 46 on the suction plate can quickly suck the folding carton and unfold it into a mouth-shaped state.

[0074] The carton in the U-shaped state opened by the actuator unit 4 passes through the folding mechanism 5 and the gluing mechanism 6 in sequence under the drive of the robot arm unit 32. In the folding mechanism 5, the carton in the U-shaped state moves to the top of the folding mechanism 5 under the drive of the robot arm unit 32. Then, the front small hinges of the small hinges on the front and rear sides of the carton in the U-shaped state contact the first folding member 521 and are folded when the carton is tilted. The carton in the U-shaped state is adjusted from the tilted state to the horizontal state through the robot arm unit 32 and the U-shaped state is in the U-shaped state. The small flaps at the rear of the carton are set to the avoidance position, and the large flaps on the left and right sides of the carton in the "mouth" state are placed between the first folding cover 521 and the third folding cover 531. The third folding cover 531 is driven by the folding cover cylinder 441 to contact the large flaps on the left and right sides of the folding cover. The robot arm unit 32 drives the carton to move toward the gluing mechanism 6, and the small flaps at the rear side contact the second folding cover 522 to be folded. The large flaps on the left and right sides contact the two folding cover rods 56 and are guided to the guide plate 55 to be folded. The carton after folding is stably guided by the side wheels 67 to pass through the first gluing assembly 62, the cutting knife assembly 65 and the second gluing assembly 63 in sequence. Under the action of the telescopic structure 66, the three assemblies are telescoped in sequence to automatically tape and cut the folded carton.
