Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of box conveying, and more specifically, to a side-turning box turning mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Goods usually need to be packaged before they are shipped out of the factory. After the packaging box is filled with goods, it is usually packed by a packaging mechanism using bandages or tapes. After the packaging mechanism packs, there is often a problem that the packaging box is upside down, and the upside-down packaging box needs to be turned right before shipping.

[0003] In the prior art, some manufacturers use manual turning, while others use conveyor belts with height differences to turn over. Using a conveyor belt with a height difference to turn over requires turning over twice, which will lengthen the length of the conveyor line to a certain extent and is not convenient for the use of space in the factory. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a side-turning box turning mechanism, aiming to solve the problem of turning over a box body by a conveyor belt with a height difference in the prior art.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, a side-turning box turning mechanism is proposed, comprising: a conveying mechanism for conveying a box body;

[0006] A stopper, arranged on the upper side of the conveying mechanism;

[0007] A first lifting member, arranged corresponding to the conveying mechanism, and used for driving the box to flip;

[0008] A first rotating mechanism, connected to the first lifting member, and used to drive the first lifting member to rotate;

[0009] A detection mechanism, arranged corresponding to the transmission mechanism, for transmitting a signal to the controller;

[0010] The controller is electrically connected to the first rotating mechanism and is used to control the opening and closing of the first rotating mechanism.

[0011] In any of the above technical solutions, further, the first rotating mechanism includes:

[0012] A first connecting member is rotatably disposed on the blocking member, and the first lifting member is fixedly disposed on the first connecting member;

[0013] The first telescopic cylinder has one end hinged to the first connecting member and the other end hinged to the conveying mechanism, and is electrically connected to the controller.

[0014] In any of the above technical solutions, further, it also includes:

[0015] A second lifting member, arranged corresponding to the conveying mechanism and used for abutting against the box body;

[0016] A second rotating mechanism, connected to the second lifting member, and used to drive the second lifting member to rotate;

[0017] The controller is electrically connected to the second rotating mechanism, and the controller is used to control the opening and closing of the second rotating mechanism.

[0018] In any of the above technical solutions, further, the second rotating mechanism includes:

[0019] A second connecting member is rotatably disposed on the blocking member, and the second lifting member is fixedly disposed on the second connecting member;

[0020] The second telescopic cylinder has one end hinged to the second connecting piece and the other end hinged to the conveying mechanism, and is electrically connected to the controller.

[0021] In any of the above technical solutions, further, the first rotating mechanism and the second rotating mechanism are symmetrically arranged.

[0022] In any of the above technical solutions, further, the conveying mechanism is provided with a support groove, and when the first lifting member is located in the support groove, the top surface of the first lifting member is located below the conveying surface of the conveying box of the conveying mechanism.

[0023] The beneficial effects are:

[0024] 1. The side-turning box turning mechanism of the utility model conveys the box body through the conveying mechanism, drives the first lifting member to rotate through the first rotating mechanism, and blocks the box body through the blocking member. When the box body moves to the blocking member, the first rotating mechanism drives the first lifting member to rotate upward, driving the box body to rotate around the blocking member. It is easy to use and has a limited movement path.

[0025] 2. The box body at the stopper is detected by the detection mechanism. When the box body is detected, the detection mechanism sends a control signal to the controller, and the controller drives the first lifting member to rotate to turn the box body over without manual operation.
