A visual inspection machine for packaging carton production

Abstract

The present invention discloses a visual inspection machine for packaging carton production, which relates to the field of packaging carton production and includes a support frame, a transmission mechanism, and a carton body. The support frame is symmetrically provided with two transmission mechanisms, and the carton body is placed on the transmission mechanism. The visual inspection machine for packaging carton production adopts a flipping mechanism with automatic clamping and release, which can automatically flip the carton body during the carton body inspection process to achieve double-sided inspection of the carton body. Specifically, when the carton body moves to contact with a rotating box, a motor drives the rotating box, a clamping plate, and the carton body to flip. When the rotating box rotates, after the movable member separates from the semicircular block, the movable rod and the clamping plate are moved under the action of a third spring to achieve a clamping effect on the carton body. After the carton body flips 180°, the movable member cooperates with the semicircular block to automatically release the lock.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of packaging paper box production, in particular to a visual inspection machine for packaging paper box production. Background Art

[0002] Packaging cartons are devices used to package items. They are mainly supported by corrugated paper. In actual production, in order to facilitate the viewing of product information, the surface of the packaging cartons is generally printed with relevant patterns and text descriptions. To ensure that the printed patterns or text on the packaging boxes are clear and correct, visual inspection machines are often used to inspect the produced packaging cartons.

[0003] In actual use, the existing visual inspection machine for packaging cartons can only inspect one side of the packaging cartons, and requires manual or robotic flipping to achieve double-sided inspection of the packaging cartons, which is more troublesome to operate. Therefore, in response to the above problems, a visual inspection machine for packaging carton production is designed to better meet actual usage needs. Summary of the Invention

After the carton body is turned 180 degrees, the lock can be automatically released by the cooperation of the movable member and the semicircular block.

[0006] Preferably, the flattening mechanism includes a mounting plate, a pressure roller, a vertical rod and a first spring. The mounting plate is connected to a bearing with a pressure roller, and the pressure roller contacts the paper box body and can roll. A vertical rod is fixed to the mounting plate, and the vertical rod is slidably connected to the support frame. The rolling action of the pressure roller can achieve the flattening effect of the paper box body, thereby ensuring the normal progress of subsequent inspections.

[0007] Preferably, the mounting plate and one end of the first spring are fixed to each other, and the other end of the first spring is fixed to the support frame. Through the elastic action of the first spring, a force can be provided for the pressure roller, so that the pressure roller generates pressure on the paper box body, thereby ensuring the flattening effect of the paper box body.

[0008] Preferably, the detection mechanism includes a fixing frame, an industrial camera, a ring frame and a fill light. The fixing frame is fixed on the support frame, and the industrial camera is installed on the fixing frame. The industrial camera can detect the pattern and text on the surface of the carton body.

[0009] Preferably, a ring frame is fixed on the fixing frame, and fill lights are evenly installed on the ring frame. Through the above structure, fill light can be provided when the industrial camera detects the carton body, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the detection result.

[0010] Preferably, the unloading mechanism includes a bracket, a cylinder, a push plate, a movable frame, a seal, a second spring, a slide rod, a ramp block, a support rod, an ink cartridge and an inking roller. The bracket is fixed on the support frame, and the cylinder is fixed on the bracket. The output end of the cylinder is fixed with a push plate, and the lower end surface of the push plate is flush with the upper end surface of the transmission mechanism. The bracket is also fixed with a support rod.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This visual inspection machine for packaging carton production adopts a flipping mechanism with automatic clamping and releasing, which can automatically flip the carton body during the inspection process of the carton body to achieve double-sided inspection of the carton body. Specifically, when the carton body moves to contact the rotating box, the motor drives the rotating box, the clamping plate and the carton body to flip 180 degrees. When the rotating box rotates, after the movable part separates from the semicircular block, the third spring moves the movable rod and the clamping plate to make the silicone pad contact with the carton body, thereby clamping the carton body. After the carton body is flipped 180 degrees, the movable part cooperates with the semicircular block to separate the clamping plate and the silicone pad from the carton body, and the lock is automatically released. In conjunction with the right-side transmission mechanism, the carton body can be transported after flipping, and the inspection mechanism can be used to inspect the carton body.

[0017] 2. The visual inspection machine for packaging carton production adopts a pushing mechanism, which can remove and collect defective carton bodies. In conjunction with the linked marking mechanism, the defective carton bodies can be marked for subsequent distinction. In conjunction with the automatic ink-replenishing structure, the clarity of the marking can be ensured. Specifically, the defective carton body can be pushed by the cylinder and the push plate, so that the defective carton body enters the collection box and is collected. In conjunction with the sliding action between the slide rod and the inclined block and the elastic action of the second spring, the seal can be brought into contact with the defective carton body, thereby realizing automatic marking. After the defective carton body enters the collection box, when the push plate and the seal are reset, in conjunction with the ink tank and the inking roller, the seal can be automatically refilled with ink to ensure the clarity of the marking mark.
