[0038] In some embodiments, the main transmission line 1 includes a main frame 11, a plurality of main rotating rollers 13, a main motor 12, and a main transmission assembly. The main frame 11 extends in a first direction. The main rotating rollers 13 are rotatably arranged on the main frame 11 at intervals in the first direction. The main transmission assembly is drivingly connected to each main rotating roller 13. The main motor 12 is arranged on the main frame 11 and is drivingly connected to any one of the main rotating rollers 13. The plurality of main rotating rollers 13 are connected by the main transmission assembly, and then the main transmission roller is driven to rotate by the main motor 12.

The transmission belts 44 are arranged in a second direction, and each transmission belt 44 is located between two adjacent main rotating rollers 13. By controlling the rotation direction of the bidirectional conveying motor 41, the transmission of the packing box 100 to the first sub-transmission line 2 or the second sub-transmission line 3 can be realized, which is convenient for control.

[0041] In some embodiments, the first sub - transmission line 2 includes a first frame 21, a plurality of first rotating rollers 23, a first motor 22, and a first transmission assembly. The first frame 21 extends along the second direction. The first rotating rollers 23 are rotatably arranged at intervals along the second direction on the first frame 21. The transmission assembly is in transmission connection with each first rotating roller 23. The first motor 22 is arranged on the first frame 21, and the first motor 22 is in transmission connection with any one of the first rotating rollers 23. The plurality of first rotating rollers 23 are connected by the first transmission assembly, and then the main transmission roller is driven to rotate by the first motor 22.

[0042] In some embodiments, the first transmission assembly includes a first transmission chain and a plurality of first sprockets 24. The plurality of first sprockets 24 are arranged in one - to - one correspondence with the plurality of first rotating rollers 23, and the first sprockets 24 are fixedly connected to the first rotating rollers 23. The first transmission chain is tensioned and sleeved on the plurality of first sprockets 24. When one of the first rotating rollers 23 is driven to rotate by the first motor 22, the first sprocket 24 thereon rotates synchronously. The first sprocket 24 drives the other first sprockets 24 to rotate through the first transmission chain, so as to drive the remaining first rotating rollers 23 to rotate and realize the transmission of the packing box 100. In other embodiments, gears can also be used for transmission. The gears are fixed on the first rotating rollers 23, and an idler gear is arranged between adjacent gears for transmission. The transmission of the packing box 100 can also be realized by using gear transmission.

[0043] In some embodiments, the structure of the second sub - transmission line 3 is the same as that of the first sub - transmission line 2.

In this embodiment, the main position detection device 15 can adopt a touch sensor, a proximity sensor or a photoelectric sensor, and no further limitation is made here.

[0045] In some embodiments, a first position detection device 25 and a second position detection device 26 are arranged at intervals along the second direction on each first sub - transmission line 2. The first position detection device 25 corresponds to the empty - box waiting position of the first sub - transmission line 2, and the second position detection device 26 corresponds to the packing position of the first sub - transmission line 2. By arranging the first position detection device 25 and the second position detection device 26, it is convenient to control the first sub - transmission line 2. When it is detected that there is an empty packing box 100 at the empty - box waiting position of the first sub - transmission line 2, the first sub - transmission line 2 starts and transports the empty packing box 100 to the packing position. After the second position detection device 26 detects the packing box 100, the first sub - transmission line 2 stops, and then the aquatic product packing can be carried out. Through the above settings, the automation of the control of the first sub - transmission line 2 can be realized. In this embodiment, both the first position detection device 25 and the second position detection device 26 can adopt touch sensors, proximity sensors or photoelectric sensors, and no more restrictions are made here.

[0046] In some embodiments, the working control principle of the second sub - transmission line 3 is the same as that of the first sub - transmission line 2, and no more details are described here.

[0047] In some embodiments, the automated conveying system for dormant - fish packing boxes further includes a control box 5. The control box 5 is electrically connected to the main transmission line 1, multiple first sub - transmission lines 2, multiple second sub - transmission lines 3, and multiple steering devices 4.
