Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of packaging box production, in particular to a packaging box visual positioning device. Background Art

[0002] A packaging box is a box used to package products. The packaging box can prevent the product from being deformed by external impact. The packaging box is generally folded from ordinary cardboard or soft cardboard. Its outer contour is mostly rectangular or square. A lining is placed in the packaging box to fix the product. The packaging box has a top cover. During packaging production, the top cover is opened first, and then the lining and the product are placed in the packaging box in turn, and finally the top cover is closed.

[0003] On an automated production line, when placing the liner and the product in a packaging box, in order to quickly place the liner and the product in the packaging box, it is necessary to open the top cover of the packaging box, unify the orientation of the packaging box, and then place the liner and the product in the packaging box.

[0004] In the prior art, in order to unify the orientation of the packaging box, some production equipment detects the orientation of the packaging box by using a camera to shoot patterns or text on the packaging box from the side. If the orientation is inconsistent, the orientation of the packaging box can be adjusted by some devices so that the lining and the product can be accurately placed in the packaging box later. However, this solution can only locate the packaging box from the side and cannot identify whether the top cover of the packaging box is open. Utility Model Content
