[0041] In this embodiment, the carton opening machine shown in the embodiment of the present application adopts an existing carton forming machine, and can meet the carton opening operations of two specifications of cartons required by the automated packaging line of this application; the carton packaging materials enter the automated packaging line, and the carton opening machine set at the carton opening station 1 folds and unpacks the packaging materials and conveys them to the first conveying section 3, and the first conveying section 3 delivers the unpacked cartons to the packing station 2, and the operators put products, foam bags, parts packages, information packages and other items into the cartons at the packing station 2, and the packed cartons flow into the labeling station 4, and the carton labeling operation is completed by the labeling machine 401, and the labeling operation has a high consistency, which avoids manual labor.

The top sealing operation of the carton is completed by the carton sealing machine installed on the sealing station 5. The sealed cartons flow into the turning station 6. The cartons on the third conveying section 601 are turned and conveyed to the fourth conveying section 701 by the turning mechanism 602. Since the transmission direction of the second conveying section 402 is perpendicular to that of the first conveying section 3, and the design of the turning mechanism 602 makes the entire packaging line a "U"-shaped turning line, which effectively improves the utilization rate of the site; the cartons containing products are weighed by the weighing machine 702 installed on the fourth conveying section 701. Weighing is performed and weight information is counted. Each time a shipment is made, the weight can be checked against the weight on the logistics list to avoid being overcharged for logistics fees.

An automated packaging line proposed in this application effectively improves site utilization. After packaging, the weight measurement data is associated with the product and stored in the MES system to avoid being overcharged for logistics fees. At the same time, the weight can be used to determine whether there is any missing or overpacking. At the same time, a strapping machine is introduced to complete the packaging process in the workshop to avoid damage to cartons during secondary packaging and transportation, and one strapping machine can complete "well"-shaped strapping.It is worth noting that the first conveying section 3, the second conveying section 402, the third conveying section 601, the fourth conveying section 701, the fifth conveying section 901, the sixth conveying section 1001, and the seventh conveying section 1101 shown in the embodiment of the present application are all roller conveyor lines.

[0042] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the unpacking station 1 is provided with a material channel 101 , and the material channel 101 is used for the passage of a material trolley, and the material trolley is used to transport carton materials to the unpacking station 1 .

[0043] In this embodiment, the unpacking station 1 is reserved with a material channel 101 for passing the material cart. When the carton materials arrive at the packaging line, the unpacking machine starts to unpack the carton according to the required carton model.

[0044] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the packing station 2 is provided with a packing workbench 201 , and a plurality of bull's eye bearings 202 are provided on the packing workbench 201 .

[0045] In this embodiment, since the packing station 2 adopts manual packing, after the packing is completed, the operator needs to manually flow the packed cartons into the labeling station 4. However, the gravity of the cartons after the products are loaded is relatively large, and the labor intensity of the operators manually pushing the cartons is relatively large. Therefore, by arranging multiple bull's eye bearings 202 on the packing workbench 201, the contact area between the carton and the packing workbench 201 can be effectively reduced, and the friction resistance between the carton and the workbench can be reduced, which effectively reduces the labor intensity of the operators.

[0046] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, a first positioning mechanism is provided on the second conveying section 402, and the first positioning mechanism includes a first blocking component 402a, a second blocking component 402b, a first side pushing component 402c and a first stop block 402d.

[0047] In this embodiment, the first blocking component 402a and the second blocking component 402b both include a blocking cylinder and a blocking plate. The blocking cylinder is used to drive the blocking plate to move along the height direction of the second conveying section 402.

[0050] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, a first notch 701 a is provided on the fourth conveying section 701 , and a weighing machine 702 is disposed in the first notch 701 a . The weighing machine 702 can pass through the first notch 701 a and move along the height direction of the fourth conveying section 701 .

[0051] In this embodiment, the weighing machine 702 can move along the height direction of the fourth conveying section 701 through the first notch 701a, so that the carton on the fourth conveying section 701 is separated from the fourth conveying section 701. After weighing, the carton is lowered and placed on the fourth conveying section 701 and flows into the strapping station 8 for the first strapping.

The movable correcting part 902a includes two vertical rods. The carton is corrected by the four vertical rods to a posture in which the axis is parallel to the transmission direction of the fifth conveying section 901, and the carton is located in the middle position of the fifth conveying section 901 along the width direction, so as to avoid angular deviation of the carton after the rotation of the lifting and rotating mechanism, which affects the effect of the secondary strapping when returning.

[0054] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, a second notch 1001a is provided on the sixth conveying section 1001, and the lifting and rotating mechanism is arranged in the second notch 1001a, and the lifting and rotating mechanism can pass through the second notch 1001a and move along the height direction of the sixth conveying section 1001, and the lifting and rotating mechanism includes a lifting driving component, a rotating driving component, a mounting plate and a rotating disk, the rotating driving component is arranged on the mounting plate, the rotating driving component is connected to the rotating disk, the lifting driving component is connected to the mounting plate, the lifting driving component is used to drive the mounting plate to move along the height direction of the sixth conveying section 1001, the rotating driving component is used to drive the rotating disk to rotate, and the rotating disk is used to carry cartons.

[0055] In this embodiment, the lifting drive component lifts the carton through the second notch 1001a and separates it from the sixth conveying section 1001, and drives the rotating disk to rotate through the rotating drive component, and the rotating disk drives the carton to rotate. The rotating drive component drives the rotating disk to rotate 90°. After the rotation is completed, the lifting drive component descends and places the carton on the sixth conveying section 1001. At this time, the sixth conveying section 1001 and the fifth conveying section 901 are reversed and driven in the reverse direction to return the carton to the strapping station 8 for the second strapping operation, thereby completing the "well"-shaped strapping of the carton. After the second strapping is completed, the fifth conveying section 901 and the sixth conveying section 1001 are driven in the forward direction to transport the carton to the stacking station 11.

The palletizing robot 1102 grabs the cartons positioned on the seventh conveying section 1101 and takes them offline, and stacks them in the palletizing area 1103.

[0058] In an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the palletizing area 1103 includes a first palletizing platform 1103 a and a second palletizing platform 1103 b . The first palletizing platform 1103 a is used to stack cartons 12 of a first specification, and the second palletizing platform 1103 b is used to stack cartons 13 of a second specification.

[0059] Working principle: the carton opening machine shown in the embodiment of the present application adopts the existing carton forming machine, and can meet the carton opening operation of two specifications of cartons required by the automated packaging line of the present application; the carton packaging material enters the automated packaging line, and the carton opening machine set at the carton opening station 1 folds and unpacks the packaging material and conveys it to the first conveying section 3, and the first conveying section 3 delivers the unpacked carton to the packing station 2, and the operator puts the product, foam bag, parts package, information package and other items into the carton at the packing station 2, and the packed carton flows into the labeling station 4, and the carton labeling operation is completed by the labeling machine 401, and the labeling operation is highly consistent, avoiding manual work. The problem of labeling being skewed is easy to occur in dynamic labeling. The labeled cartons flow into the sealing station 5 through the second conveying section 402. The top sealing operation of the cartons is completed by the carton sealing machine arranged on the carton sealing station 5. The sealed cartons flow into the turning station 6. The cartons on the third conveying section 601 are turned and conveyed to the fourth conveying section 701 by the turning mechanism 602. Since the transmission direction of the second conveying section 402 is perpendicular to that of the first conveying section 3 and the design of the turning mechanism 602 makes the whole packaging line a "U"-shaped turning line, which effectively improves the utilization rate of the site. The cartons containing products are weighed by the weighing machine 702 arranged on the fourth conveying section 701. The cartons are weighed and the weight information is counted. Each time the cartons are shipped, the weight can be checked against the weight on the logistics list to avoid being overcharged for logistics fees. At the same time, the weight can be used to determine whether there is any missing or overloading. The weighed cartons are fed into the strapping station 8 through the fourth conveying section 701. The strapping station 8 straps the cartons, and all the packaging processes are completed in the workshop to avoid the hidden dangers of secondary packaging and carton damage during transportation. The cartons after strapping are fed into the posture correction station 9, and the posture of the cartons is adjusted by the posture correction mechanism 902. The cartons are fed into the lifting and rotating station 10 by the fifth conveying section 901, and the cartons are lifted and lowered by the lifting and rotating mechanism. The box is lifted up and separated from the sixth conveying section 1001, and the angle of the carton is rotated to adjust. Since the fifth conveying section 901 and the sixth conveying section 1001 are both bidirectional conveying sections, the sixth conveying section 1001 returns the carton with the adjusted angle to the fifth conveying section 901, and the fifth conveying section 901 returns the carton to the strapping station 8 for strapping again, thereby forming a "well" shaped strap on the carton, and one strapping machine completes the "well" shaped strapping; after the "well" shaped strapping is completed, the carton flows into the palletizing station 11, and the cartons on the seventh conveying section 1101 are stacked offline in the palletizing area 1103 by the palletizing robot 1102. An automated packaging line proposed in this application effectively improves site utilization. After packaging, the weight measurement data is associated with the product and stored in the MES system to avoid being overcharged for logistics fees. At the same time, the weight can be used to determine whether there is any missing or overpacking. At the same time, a strapping machine is introduced to complete the packaging process in the workshop to avoid damage to cartons during secondary packaging and transportation, and one strapping machine can complete "well"-shaped strapping.It is worth noting that the first conveying section 3, the second conveying section 402, the third conveying section 601, the fourth conveying section 701, the fifth conveying section 901, the sixth conveying section 1001, and the seventh conveying section 1101 shown in the embodiment of the present application are all roller conveyor lines.
