[0041] The desiccant is divided and packed into small packages through a discharge pipe. A specified number of small packages are loaded into a vertical packaging bag together and moved to the packing process through the packaging bag conveyor belt.

[0042] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 , The carton is used as a transport container for the desiccant packaging bag. It is folded into cardboard and placed on the carton input belt 2. The carton input belt 2 is inclined, and the end of the carton input belt 2 is lower than the starting end of the carton input belt 2. The carton is placed vertically on the carton input belt 2. To maintain the stability of the carton on the carton input belt 2, a limiting plate 42 can also be provided on the carton input belt 2. The limiting plate 42 is used to abut against the carton to keep it stable. In one embodiment, guide rails are arranged in parallel on both sides of the carton input belt 2, and the limiting plate 42 is slidably connected to the guide rails, and the limiting plate 42 is driven by a motor to follow the carton for conveyance.

[0043] The unpacking mechanism 3 includes an operating table 31, a suction cup assembly 32, and a side straightening roller assembly. The operating table 31 is connected to the end of the carton input belt 2. A bottom folding assembly and an adhesive assembly 35 are provided at the bottom of the operating table 31. Both the suction cup assembly 32 and the side straightening roller assembly are connected to the operating table 31. Among them, the suction cup assembly 32 is arranged opposite to the carton input belt 2, and the side straightening roller assembly is located on both sides of the operating table 31. The operating table 31 is also connected with a first conveying assembly 36 and a second conveying assembly 37.

The operating table 31 is connected with a carton pushing assembly 38, and the carton pushing assembly 38 is used to push the carton into the gap.

[0044] The cardboard box reaches the box opening mechanism 3 along the cardboard box input belt 2. The operating table 31 is connected to the end of the cardboard box input belt 2. When the cardboard box reaches the end of the cardboard box input belt 2, the side of the cardboard box is adsorbed by the suction cup assembly 32, and the cardboard box is brought into the operating table 31 through the adsorption and extension of the suction cup assembly 32. The bottom folding assembly is used to fold the two side edges of the bottom of the cardboard box, so that the cardboard box can be unfolded and formed. The side straightening roller assembly is used to correct the alignment of the sides of the cardboard box to ensure that the cardboard box can be straightened and maintain a unified specification during the box opening process. At this time, the box pushing assembly 38 pushes the cardboard box into the gap between the first conveying assembly 36 and the second conveying assembly 37, and reaches the cardboard box output belt 4 after being conveyed. During the conveying process, the bonding assembly 35 uses tape to bond and fix the bottom of the cardboard box.

[0045] In the box opening mechanism 3, the suction cup assembly 32, the side straightening roller assembly, the bottom folding assembly and the bonding assembly 35 are all arranged with the structures of conventional box opening machines to achieve corresponding purposes. The first conveying assembly 36 and the second conveying assembly 37 are composed of arranged rollers and belts. The rollers are driven by motors.

A pushing shaft 94 is connected to the side of the cross moving rod 92 close to the cardboard box. The pushing shaft 94 abuts against the front and rear folding covers of the cardboard box. The expansion and contraction of the pushing cylinder 93 drives the movement of the pushing shaft 94. When sealing the box is required, the front and rear folding covers are closed by the movement of the pushing shaft 94.

[0048] For the closure of the left and right folding covers of the cardboard box, a telescopic member 8 is connected to the cross bar 54. The telescopic member 8 is connected to a shaft seat 81. Two fixed shafts 82 are rotatably connected to the shaft seat 81. The fixed shafts 82 are both connected with gears 83. The two gears 83 mesh with each other, so as to realize the rotation of the two fixed shafts 82 in opposite directions through the gears 83. A driving motor 84 is connected to the shaft seat 81. The driving motor 84 is used to drive one of the fixed shafts 82 to rotate. The fixed shaft 82 is connected with a rocker arm 85, so as to drive the two rocker arms 85 to approach each other by rotation. The rocker arm 85 is connected with a push shaft, and the push shaft abuts against the left and right folding covers of the cardboard box. When the rocker arm 85 rotates, the push shaft pushes the left and right folding covers to realize closure.

[0049] The case sealing mechanism 5 further includes a glue sealing component. The glue sealing component includes a telescopic rod 7 connected to the bracket 51. The output end of the telescopic rod 7 is connected with a bottom plate 71. A tape roller 72 is rotatably connected to the bottom plate 71. The tape roller 72 in the glue sealing component adopts a spring balancer to ensure the uniformity of the tape tension. At the same time, the material of the tape roller 72 adopts wear-resistant polymer material to improve its wear resistance. The telescopic rod 7 is driven by hydraulic pressure or a motor to ensure the stability and position accuracy during telescoping. A driving cylinder 73 is connected to the bottom plate 71. The output end of the driving cylinder 73 is connected with a cutter 74. The driving cylinder 73 can realize rapid cutting and retraction to improve the case sealing efficiency. The case sealing mechanism 5 realizes the automatic case sealing of the cardboard box. At the same time, the glue sealing component ensures the flatness and tightness of the tape after case sealing through precise tape tension control, further improving the case sealing effect.

[0050] See Figure 1 , after the case sealing is completed, the cardboard boxes are automatically stacked by the stacking mechanism 6. The stacking mechanism 6 is set as a manipulator that can grab the cardboard boxes and perform palletizing operations. The cardboard boxes are stacked together by the manipulator, which is convenient for subsequent storage and transportation.

[0051] The implementation principle of an automatic desiccant packing device according to an embodiment of the present application is as follows: by setting the case opening mechanism 3, the automatic case opening and forming of the cardboard box is realized. The manipulator arm 41 clamps and sends the desiccant packaging bag into the cardboard box, realizing automatic packing. The case sealing mechanism 5 realizes the automatic case sealing of the cardboard box through the front and back folding cover components, the left and right folding covers, and the glue sealing component. The stacking mechanism 6 adopts a manipulator that can grab the cardboard boxes and perform palletizing operations, making the packing process of the desiccant fully automatic, reducing manual participation, and improving work efficiency.

[0052] This specific implementation manner is only an interpretation of the present application, and it does not limit the present application. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this specific implementation manner without creative contributions as needed, but as long as it is within the scope of the claims of the present application, it is protected by the patent law.
