Description of the Drawings

[0011] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the automatic cardboard box feeding equipment for switching bins of the present utility model. Detailed Embodiments

[0012] As Figure 1 shown, an automatic cardboard box feeding equipment for switching bins in this embodiment includes a bin switching mechanism, several cardboard box bins, and a blanking mechanism. In this embodiment, two cardboard box bins are taken as an example.

[0013] The bin switching mechanism includes a sliding track 12 and a sliding driving device 11. Two cardboard box bins are fixedly connected and arranged side by side on the sliding track 12. The sliding track 12 is fixed on the base 13. The sliding track 12 is set to have a stroke length equal to the length of three cardboard box bins. The blanking mechanism is arranged at the midpoint of the sliding track 12 stroke. The sliding driving device 11 is used to drive the cardboard box bins to move on the sliding track 12. The sliding driving device 111 is a telescopic rod with a telescopic stroke length equal to the length of one cardboard box bin. The fixed end of the telescopic rod is fixed on the base 13 and is located at one end of the sliding track 12. The telescopic end of the telescopic rod is fixed in the middle of the two side-by-side cardboard box bins. The telescopic rod extends and retracts to switch the cardboard box bin under the action of the blanking mechanism. The blanking mechanism is used to take materials from the cardboard box bin.

[0014] The carton bin includes a baffle frame 21, a pressing plate member 23, and a bin base 24. The bin base 24 is used to carry cartons and is arranged on the sliding track 12 and moves on the sliding track 12. The baffle frame 21 is arranged at the front end of the bin base 24. A carton blocking piece 22 is arranged on the baffle frame 21, and the carton blocking piece 22 is used to block cartons. The pressing plate member 23 is arranged on the bin base 24. The carton is located between the baffle frame 21 and the pressing plate member 23, and the pressing plate member 23 always presses against the carton. The material taking mechanism takes materials from between the baffle frames 21. The surface of the bin base 24 for carrying cartons is an inclined surface, which slopes downward in the direction close to the material taking mechanism. When a carton is taken away by the material taking mechanism, the remaining cartons move forward under the action of gravity and the pressing plate member 23.

[0015] The material taking mechanism includes a bin separating suction cup assembly 31, a flipping mechanism 32, a box feeding suction cup assembly 33, and a box feeding transfer mechanism 34. The bin separating suction cup assembly 31 includes a bin separating suction cup and a bin separating driving device. The bin separating driving device drives the bin separating suction cup to extend through the baffle frame 21 to suck the carton and then retracts the bin separating suction cup that sucks the carton. The flipping mechanism 32 drives the bin separating suction cup assembly 31 to flip and turn. The box feeding suction cup assembly 33 includes a box feeding suction cup. The flipping mechanism 32 drives the bin separating suction cup assembly 31 to flip and turn so that the bin separating suction cup and the box feeding suction cup are arranged face to face. The bin separating driving device drives the bin separating suction cup to extend to send the carton to the box feeding suction cup. The box feeding suction cup sucks the carton, the bin separating suction cup releases the carton and retracts, and the box feeding transfer mechanism 34 is used to send the box feeding suction cup assembly 33 to a specified position.

[0016] The cartons are manually placed in front of the pressing plate members 23 of two side-by-side arranged carton bins respectively, blocked by the carton blocking pieces 22, and then pressed tightly by the pressing plate members 23 to complete manual loading of the boxes. After the equipment runs automatically, the bin separating suction cup extends, sucks the first carton blocked by the carton blocking piece 22, and then pulls out the carton, thus completing carton separation. Subsequently, the flipping mechanism 32 flips the bin separating suction cup that sucks the carton to the direction with the suction cup facing upward. At the same time, the box feeding suction cup waits above the flipping mechanism 32. Then, the bin separating suction cup extends again, the box feeding suction cup sucks the carton, the bin separating suction cup retracts, and after the box feeding transfer mechanism 34 sends the box feeding suction cup assembly 33 that sucks the carton to a specified position, the box feeding suction cup is released, and the carton is placed at the specified position. When all the cartons in the left carton bin are separated, the sliding driving device 11 moves the left carton bin to the left side of the material taking mechanism, and the material taking mechanism continues to separate the cartons on the right side and at the same time feeds the left carton bin, thereby improving the operation efficiency of the equipment.
