[0002] The automatic folding and gluing integrated device for honeycomb cardboard production lines is an automated production line that combines the two processes of folding and forming honeycomb cardboard with gluing and bonding into one. It can accurately and quickly complete the entire process from cardboard input to carton output automatically.
[0003] Currently, in existing honeycomb carton production lines, the folding and gluing processes are mostly designed separately. That is, the carton blank is first folded by the folding mechanism, and then glue is applied to the folded and bonded parts by an independent gluing mechanism. Alternatively, glue is first applied to the folded edges of the blank by the gluing mechanism, and then it is transported to the folding mechanism for folding and bonding. This separate operation method has low production efficiency. Summary of the Invention

The two ends of the telescopic drive rod are respectively hinged to the mounting plate and the folding drive plate.
[0011] Furthermore, the automatic folding and gluing integrated device for a honeycomb carton production line also includes a lifting and adsorption device. The lifting and adsorption device includes a lifting rod and an adsorption platform. The folding platform has a storage space that extends vertically downward from the upper surface of the folding platform. The lifting rod is located within the storage space and is driven to connect to the adsorption platform so that the platform surface of the adsorption platform coincides with the platform surface of the folding platform. The adsorption platform is used to adsorb and fix the honeycomb paperboard.
[0012] Furthermore, the lifting drive mechanism includes a lifting drive rod and a lifting frame; the lifting drive rod is disposed on the support frame, and the lifting drive rod drives and connects to the lifting frame so that the lifting frame can be lifted and lowered relative to the folding platform; the glue container, the glue application tube and the linkage abutment device are all disposed on the lifting frame and move up and down with the lifting frame.

The second reset member is used to drive the hollow groove body to return to the initial position.
[0015] Furthermore, the pushed part is a first inclined abutment surface, and the second abutment block has a second inclined abutment surface, and the first inclined abutment surface and the second inclined abutment surface can slide together.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0020] 1. Based on the folding platform installed on the support frame, the folding platform is used to carry the honeycomb paperboard. The folding platform has multiple folding drive plates, which are distributed circumferentially. Two adjacent folding drive plates are used to lift the honeycomb paperboards they carry to the vertical direction until the side edges of the two folded honeycomb paperboards abut against each other. The lifting drive mechanism is located on the support frame and above the folding platform. The glue container is located on the lifting drive mechanism and has a glue container space. The glue-applying tube connects to the glue-containing space and is used to apply glue to the joint of the honeycomb paperboard folded and abutting against each other by two adjacent folding drive plates. This arrangement allows the two adjacent folding drive plates to lift the honeycomb paperboards they support to a vertical position and abut against each other at their side edges, enabling precise glue application at the same time. This avoids the cumbersome step of secondary positioning and glue application after folding, achieving synchronous linkage between folding and glue application, and effectively improving the production efficiency of the honeycomb carton production line.
[0021] 2. The valve comprises a valve body, a translational valve disc, and a first reset component; the valve body is disposed on the glue application tube, and the translational valve disc is slidably connected to the valve body to open or close the valve body; the first reset component is installed on the valve body and is used to drive the translational valve disc to close the valve body; the translational valve disc has a push-up portion; the design of the translational valve disc and the first reset component enables precise start and stop control of glue application, while the structure of the translational valve disc slidably connected to the valve body ensures smooth operation, low wear, reduces the probability of device failure, ensures continuous and stable folding glue application process, and guarantees that production efficiency is not affected by equipment failure.
[0022] 3. The linkage abutment device includes a first abutment block, a hollow groove, and a second abutment block; the first abutment block and the hollow groove are slidably disposed on the lifting drive mechanism, and their translational sliding directions on the lifting drive mechanism are consistent; the second abutment block is slidably disposed on the hollow groove; the first abutment block and the second abutment block are respectively squeezed by the corresponding honeycomb paperboards on two adjacent folding drive plates, so that the first abutment block squeezes the hollow groove, thereby driving the second abutment block to squeeze the pushed part, so that the translational valve flap opens the valve body. The first and second abutting blocks of this invention are respectively pressed by the corresponding honeycomb paperboards on two adjacent folding drive plates, so that the hollow groove can slide under the action of the first abutting block. At the same time, combined with the sliding of the second abutting block, the second abutting block will finally press the pushed part of the translation valve, thereby opening the valve body. The folding action and the valve opening action are mechanically linked by the linkage abutting device, eliminating the need for additional power to drive the valve. This achieves real-time synchronous response of folding and gluing, avoiding the delay problems caused by electronic control or additional drive components, and further improving linkage stability and production efficiency.

The terminology used herein in the description of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0031] See Figures 1-4 An automatic folding and gluing integrated device for a honeycomb carton production line according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes: a support frame 1, a folding platform 2, a lifting and gluing mechanism 3, a valve 4, and a linkage abutment device 5;
[0032] The folding platform 2 is installed on the support frame 1. The folding platform 2 is used to carry the honeycomb paperboard. The folding platform 2 has multiple folding drive plates 21. The multiple folding drive plates 21 are distributed circumferentially. Two adjacent folding drive plates 21 are used to lift the honeycomb paperboards they carry above them to the vertical direction until the side edges of the two folded honeycomb paperboards abut against each other.
[0033] The lifting and gluing mechanism 3 includes a lifting drive mechanism 31, an adhesive container 32, and a gluing pipe 33. The lifting drive mechanism 31 is mounted on the support frame 1 and located above the folding platform 2. The adhesive container 32 is mounted on the lifting drive mechanism 31 and has an adhesive container space. The gluing pipe 33 is connected to the adhesive container space and is used to apply adhesive to the joint of the honeycomb paperboard that is folded and abutted against by two adjacent folding drive plates 21.
[0034] The valve 4 includes a valve body 41, a translational valve disc 42, and a first reset member 43; the valve body 41 is disposed on the adhesive application tube 33, and the translational valve disc 42 is slidably connected to the valve body 41 so as to open or close the valve body 41; the first reset member 43 is installed on the valve body 41 and is used to drive the translational valve disc 42 to close the valve body 41; the translational valve disc 42 has a push-up portion 421;
[0035] The linkage abutment device 5 includes a first abutment block 51, a hollow groove 52, and a second abutment block 53. The first abutment block 51 and the hollow groove 52 are slidably disposed on the lifting drive mechanism 31, and their translational sliding directions on the lifting drive mechanism 31 are consistent. The second abutment block 53 is slidably disposed on the hollow groove 52. The first abutment block 51 and the second abutment block 53 are respectively squeezed by the corresponding honeycomb paperboards on two adjacent folding drive plates 21, so that the first abutment block 51 squeezes the hollow groove 52, thereby driving the second abutment block 53 to squeeze the pushed part 421, so that the translational valve disc 42 opens the valve body 41.
[0036] The working principle of this invention is as follows: During operation, the honeycomb paperboard to be processed is first placed on the folding platform 2 installed on the support frame 1, so that the honeycomb paperboard is supported on multiple circumferentially distributed folding drive plates 21. At this time, the translational valve disc 42 of the valve 4 is kept closed by the first reset member 43 (wherein, the first reset member 43 can be a spring or a spring sheet), preventing the glue from flowing out of the glue application tube 33 in advance. Then, the equipment is started, and the multiple folding drive plates 21 are activated respectively. The adjacent two folding drive plates 21 respectively lift the honeycomb paperboards supported on them to the vertical direction until the side edges of the two folded honeycomb paperboards abut against each other, completing the folding process of the honeycomb paperboard. Meanwhile, the honeycomb paperboard folded vertically will press the first abutting block 51 and the second abutting block 53 of the linkage abutting device 5 respectively. Since the first abutting block 51 and the hollow groove 52 are slidably disposed on the lifting drive mechanism 31 and the sliding direction is the same, and the second abutting block 53 is slidably disposed on the hollow groove 52, the squeezing force of the honeycomb paperboard will drive the first abutting block 51 to squeeze the hollow groove 52, thereby driving the second abutting block 53 to squeeze the pushed part 421 of the translation valve 42. Then the translation valve 42 overcomes the force of the first reset member 43 and slides along the valve body 41, opening the valve body 41. At this time, the glue in the glue container 32 passes through the connected glue application tube 33, and then is precisely dripped onto the honeycomb paperboard abutting point where the two adjacent folding drive plates 21 abut against each other after folding under the drive of the lifting drive mechanism 31 (wherein the lifting drive mechanism 31 can be configured as a lifting and rotating drive structure), realizing that folding and glue application are carried out simultaneously. After the gluing is completed, the folding drive plate 21 resets, the squeezing force of the honeycomb paperboard on the first abutting block 51 and the second abutting block 53 disappears, and the first reset component 43 immediately drives the translation valve disc 42 to reset, closing the valve body 41 again and stopping the gluing. The entire process achieves real-time synchronization of folding and gluing through the purely mechanical coordinated linkage of the folding drive plate 21, the linkage abutting device 5, and the valve 4, greatly improving production efficiency.
[0037] Obviously, based on the folding platform 2 installed on the support frame 1, the folding platform 2 is used to support the honeycomb paperboard. The folding platform 2 has multiple folding drive plates 21, which are distributed circumferentially. Adjacent folding drive plates 21 are used to lift the honeycomb paperboard they support to the vertical direction until the side edges of the two folded honeycomb paperboards abut against each other. The lifting drive mechanism 31 is located on the support frame 1 and above the folding platform 2. The glue container 32 is located on the lifting drive mechanism 31 and contains glue. The adhesive container is connected to the adhesive container space. The adhesive container 33 is used to apply adhesive to the joint of the honeycomb paperboard folded and abutting with each other by two adjacent folding drive plates 21. This arrangement allows the two adjacent folding drive plates 21 to lift the honeycomb paperboards they support to the vertical direction and make the side edges of the two honeycomb paperboards abut each other, so that adhesive can be applied accurately at the same time as they abut. This avoids the cumbersome step of secondary positioning and adhesive application after folding, realizes synchronous linkage between folding and adhesive application, and effectively improves the production efficiency of the honeycomb carton production line.
[0038] The valve 4 includes a valve body 41, a translational valve disc 42, and a first reset member 43. The valve body 41 is disposed on the glue application tube 33, and the translational valve disc 42 is slidably connected to the valve body 41 to open or close the valve body 41. The first reset member 43 is installed on the valve body 41 and is used to drive the translational valve disc 42 to close the valve body 41. The translational valve disc 42 has a push-up portion 421. The design of the translational valve disc 42 and the first reset member 43 enables precise start and stop control of glue application. At the same time, the structure of the translational valve disc 42 slidingly connected to the valve body 41 ensures smooth operation, low wear, reduces the probability of device failure, ensures continuous and stable folding glue application process, and guarantees that production efficiency is not affected by equipment failure.
[0039] The linkage abutment device 5 includes a first abutment block 51, a hollow groove 52, and a second abutment block 53. The first abutment block 51 and the hollow groove 52 are slidably disposed on the lifting drive mechanism 31, and their translational sliding directions on the lifting drive mechanism 31 are consistent. The second abutment block 53 is slidably disposed on the hollow groove 52. The first abutment block 51 and the second abutment block 53 are respectively squeezed by the corresponding honeycomb paperboards on two adjacent folding drive plates 21, so that the first abutment block 51 squeezes the hollow groove 52, thereby driving the second abutment block 53 to squeeze the pushed part 421, so that the translational valve disc 42 opens the valve body 41. The first abutting block 51 and the second abutting block 53 of this invention are respectively pressed by the corresponding honeycomb paper on the two adjacent folding drive plates 21, so that the hollow groove 52 can slide under the action of the first abutting block 51. At the same time, combined with the sliding of the second abutting block 53, the second abutting block 53 will finally press the pushed part 421 of the translation valve 42, thereby opening the valve body 41 of the translation valve 42. The folding action and the valve 4 opening action are mechanically linked by the linkage abutting device 5, without the need for additional power to drive the valve 4, realizing real-time synchronous response of folding and gluing, avoiding the delay problem caused by electronic control or additional drive components, and further improving linkage stability and production efficiency.
[0040] refer to Figure 1 Preferably, the automatic folding and gluing integrated device for a honeycomb carton production line further includes multiple folding drive components 6. Each folding drive component 6 is connected to one of the folding drive plates 21, enabling adjacent folding drive plates 21 to lift the honeycomb paperboards they support to a vertical position until the side edges of the folded honeycomb paperboards abut against each other. Each folding drive component 6 includes a mounting plate 61 and a telescopic drive rod 62. The mounting plate 61 is located on the folding platform 2. The two ends of the telescopic drive rod 62 are hinged to the mounting plate 61 and the folding drive plate 21, respectively. This configuration provides a stable mounting base for the telescopic drive rod 62 through the mounting plate 61, ensuring the stability of the driving process. The hinged design at both ends of the telescopic drive rod 62 allows for flexible adaptation to the rotation and folding trajectory of the folding drive plate 21, avoiding drive jamming. The telescopic drive rod 62 provides a stable and controllable driving force, ensuring that adjacent folding drive plates 21 move synchronously and have consistent folding angles, resulting in precise contact of the honeycomb paperboards and guaranteeing the subsequent gluing effect. The telescopic drive rod 62 can be an electric telescopic rod, a pneumatic telescopic rod, or a hydraulic telescopic rod.
[0041] refer to Figure 1Preferably, the automatic folding and gluing integrated device for a honeycomb carton production line further includes a lifting and adsorption device 7. The lifting and adsorption device 7 includes a lifting rod 71 and an adsorption platform 72. The folding platform 2 has a storage space 22, which extends vertically downwards from the upper surface of the folding platform 2. The lifting rod 71 is located within the storage space 22 and drives the adsorption platform 72 so that the platform surface of the adsorption platform 72 coincides with the platform surface of the folding platform 2. The adsorption platform 72 is used to adsorb and fix the honeycomb paperboard. This arrangement provides a concealed installation space for the lifting rod 71 and the adsorption platform 72 through the storage space 22 on the folding platform 2. When the adsorption platform 72 coincides with the platform surface of the folding platform 2, it does not affect the normal placement of the honeycomb paperboard and the operation of the folding drive plate 21, ensuring a compact overall structure of the device. The adsorption platform 72 can firmly adsorb and fix the honeycomb paperboard, preventing displacement or shifting during folding, ensuring accurate folding angles and tight contact, and guaranteeing the accuracy of subsequent gluing. The lifting rod 71 drives the adsorption platform 72 to rise and fall, which can flexibly adapt to the picking, placing and folding process of honeycomb paper. When picking or placing, the adsorption platform 72 descends for easy operation, and when folding, it rises to overlap with the table surface for fixation. The lifting rod 71 can be an electric lifting rod, a pneumatic telescopic rod or a hydraulic telescopic rod; the adsorption platform 72 can adopt a vacuum negative pressure adsorption method, which is stable and does not easily damage the honeycomb paper.
[0042] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Preferably, the lifting drive mechanism 31 includes a lifting drive rod 311 and a lifting frame 312. The lifting drive rod 311 is mounted on the support frame 1 and drives the lifting frame 312 so that the lifting frame 312 can rise and fall relative to the folding platform 2. The glue container 32, the glue application tube 33, and the linkage abutment device 5 are all mounted on the lifting frame 312 and rise and fall with the lifting frame 312. This arrangement allows the lifting drive rod 311 to provide a stable and controllable lifting drive force to the lifting frame 312, ensuring that the lifting frame 312 rises and falls smoothly and with precise stroke, thereby driving the glue container 32, the glue application tube 33, and the linkage abutment device 5 to rise and fall synchronously, achieving height adaptation between the three and the folding platform 2 and the folding drive plate 21. The height of the lifting frame 312 can be flexibly adjusted according to the thickness and folding height of the honeycomb paperboard, ensuring that the glue application tube 33 is always aligned with the honeycomb paperboard contact point and that the linkage contact device 5 is always precisely squeezed by the folded honeycomb paperboard, thus guaranteeing the stability and accuracy of the synchronous linkage of folding and glue application. The lifting drive rod 311 can be an electric lifting rod 71 or a pneumatic lifting rod 71.
[0043] refer to Figure 4Preferably, the lifting frame 312 is provided with a first sliding groove 3121 and a second sliding groove 3122, which are interconnected, and the extension directions of the first sliding groove 3121 and the second sliding groove 3122 are set at a non-zero angle. The first sliding groove 3121 has a first groove segment and a second groove segment. The first abutting block 51 is slidably engaged with the first groove segment, the translation valve 42 is slidably engaged with the second groove segment, and the pushed part 421 is located in the second groove segment. The hollow groove body 52 is slidably installed in the second sliding groove 3122 along the extension direction of the first sliding groove 3121. This arrangement, through the interconnected design of the first sliding groove 3121 and the second sliding groove 3122, provides precise sliding guidance for the first abutting block 51, the translation valve 42, and the hollow groove body 52, constrains the movement trajectory of each component, avoids sliding deviation and jamming, and ensures smooth linkage action. The corresponding engagement of the first groove segment with the first abutment block 51 and the second groove segment with the translation valve disc 42, along with the non-zero included angle between the two grooves, enables the efficient transmission of the sliding power of the first abutment block 51 to the hollow groove body 52. This, in turn, precisely compresses the pushed portion 421 of the translation valve disc 42, ensuring the synchronous linkage between the folding action and the opening action of the valve 4. The inner walls of the first groove 3121 and the second groove 3122 can be smoothed to further reduce sliding friction resistance and ensure timely linkage response.
[0044] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 Preferably, the second slide groove 3122 is provided with a second reset member 8. The two ends of the second reset member 8 are respectively connected to the groove wall of the second slide groove 3122 and the hollow groove body 52. The second reset member 8 is used to drive the hollow groove body 52 to return to its initial position. This arrangement allows the second reset member 8 to work in conjunction with the first reset member 43. After the glue application is completed and the pressure of the honeycomb paperboard disappears, the hollow groove body 52 is driven to quickly return to its initial position, thereby driving the first abutting block 51 and the second abutting block 53 to reset synchronously. This ensures that the linkage abutting device 5 quickly returns to the standby state, preparing for the next folding and glue application process, effectively shortening the process interval and improving production efficiency. At the same time, the second reset member 8 can constrain the reset trajectory of the hollow groove body 52, preventing it from deviating or jamming during reset, ensuring the consistency and stability of the linkage abutting device 5's operation, and ensuring that each folding action can accurately trigger the valve 4 to open, ensuring glue application accuracy. The second reset member 8 can be a spring or a spring sheet.
[0045] refer to Figure 4Preferably, the pushed portion 421 is a first inclined abutment surface, and the second abutment block 53 has a second inclined abutment surface 531. The first inclined abutment surface and the second inclined abutment surface 531 can slide together. This arrangement allows the linear pushing force of the second abutment block 53 to be efficiently and smoothly transmitted to the pushed portion 421 of the translation valve disc 42 through the sliding engagement of the two inclined abutment surfaces, avoiding problems such as jamming and uneven force during abutment, ensuring smooth and continuous linkage, and guaranteeing the synchronization of folding and gluing. The inclined engagement can realize the conversion of force direction, adapting to the non-zero angle setting of the first slide groove 3121 and the second slide groove 3122, making the power transmission more precise and the loss less, while reducing wear at the abutment point and extending the service life of the component. In addition, the design of the inclined abutment surface engagement can automatically align the abutment position, avoiding abutment misalignment caused by assembly deviation, and ensuring that the valve 4 is opened accurately with each squeeze.
[0046] Preferably, there are multiple glue-applying tubes 33 and multiple valves 4; the valve body 41 of each valve 4 is connected to one of the glue-applying tubes 33. This arrangement allows for one-to-one control of multiple glue-applying tubes 33 and multiple valves 4, enabling simultaneous glue application to multiple joints of the folded honeycomb cardboard, significantly shortening the glue application time, further improving production efficiency, and aligning with the core objective of synchronous linkage between folding and glue application in the device. Each valve 4 independently controls the start and stop of one glue-applying tube 33, allowing for flexible control of the corresponding glue-applying tube 33 based on the number of folds and joint positions of the honeycomb cardboard, avoiding unnecessary glue waste. The number of glue-applying tubes 33 can be flexibly set according to the number of folding drive plates 21, adapting to the processing needs of different specifications of honeycomb cardboard boxes, further enhancing the versatility of the device.
[0047] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4Preferably, the valve body 41 is provided with a mounting groove 411, and the extension direction of the mounting groove 411 is perpendicular to the liquid flow direction in the adhesive application tube 33; the translational valve disc 42 is slidably engaged with the mounting groove 411; when the second abutment block 53 drives the push-up part 421, it will drive the translational valve disc 42 to slide and open the valve body 41. This configuration provides a precise and directional sliding installation space for the translational valve disc 42 through the mounting groove 411. Utilizing the design that the extension direction of the mounting groove 411 is perpendicular to the liquid flow direction of the adhesive application tube 33, the translational valve disc 42 can precisely block or connect the flow channel of the adhesive application tube 33 when sliding, achieving rapid and reliable opening and closing of the valve body 41, avoiding problems such as glue leakage or incomplete shut-off. The sliding engagement between the translational valve disc 42 and the mounting groove 411 can effectively constrain the movement trajectory of the valve disc, preventing it from deviating or jamming during opening and closing, ensuring consistent stroke and precise opening degree each time, thereby ensuring stable and uniform glue application. Meanwhile, the vertical groove design is adapted to the power transmission direction of the inclined contact surface, which can efficiently convert the compressive force of the second contact block 53 into the opening power of the translation valve disc 42, reducing force loss and improving the sensitivity of the linkage response. Among them, the inner wall of the mounting groove 411 can be provided with a smooth guide surface to reduce the frictional resistance when the translation valve disc 42 slides, ensuring that the valve body 41 opens and closes smoothly, is wear-resistant and durable, and further ensures the long-term stable operation of the device.
[0048] refer to Figure 4 Preferably, the translation valve disc 42 is provided with a through port 422 for the liquid in the adhesive application tube 33 to pass through; the valve body 41 is also provided with a receiving groove 412, which is connected to the mounting groove 411, and the two ends of the first reset member 43 are respectively connected to the groove wall of the receiving groove 412 and the translation valve disc 42. This arrangement allows the adhesive to pass smoothly through the through port 422 on the translation valve disc 42 when the valve body 41 is opened. Combined with the design that the mounting groove 411 is perpendicular to the liquid flow direction of the adhesive application tube 33, the adhesive path precisely corresponds to the adhesive application tube 33, ensuring uniform application of adhesive without overflow, avoiding adhesive waste and equipment contamination. The receiving groove 412 on the valve body 41 provides dedicated installation space for the first reset member 43, and the connection between the receiving groove 412 and the mounting groove 411 ensures accurate and stable connection between the first reset member 43 and the translation valve disc 42, preventing reset failure caused by installation misalignment of the reset member. Meanwhile, the receiving groove 412 protects the first reset component 43, reducing adhesive erosion and component wear, ensuring the service life and reset reliability of the reset component, and ensuring that the translational valve disc 42 quickly and accurately resets after adhesive application, closing the valve body 41 and improving production efficiency. The size of the through-hole 422 can be flexibly designed according to the adhesive application amount requirements, and the size of the receiving groove 412 can be adapted to the specifications of the first reset component 43, further improving the adaptability of the device.
