Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of carton production, and particularly relates to a carton transportation device. Background Art
[0002] Cartons are the most widely used packaging products. As an indispensable part of modern logistics, packaging cartons undertake the important responsibilities of containing, protecting products, and being aesthetically pleasing. They are usually used as wrappers for goods or the outer layer for protecting items.
[0003] Generally, cartons are formed from cardboard through steps such as die-cutting, indentation, and gluing the box. Some also require printing. Now, most cartons are produced through an integrated setup. After the cardboard is put in from the feeding end, compressed cartons are directly generated through an integrated carton production device, thereby improving the production efficiency of cartons.
[0004] In the process of improving the production efficiency of cartons and accelerating transportation, folded cartons one by one will quickly be discharged for workers to package. However, workers need to package the cartons in clusters. Therefore, the method of discharging one by one is too cumbersome for workers to bundle and package. They need to count the number of cartons all the time and wait until they are gathered together for bundling. This undoubtedly increases the labor of workers. Therefore, it is very necessary to add a transportation device that can push out a certain number of cartons simultaneously. Summary of the Utility Model
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a carton transportation device, which has the advantage of simultaneously pushing out a certain number of cartons in a centralized manner.
[0006] The above technical purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0007] A carton transportation device includes a main body, a transportation part, a blocking part, and a pushing part. The transportation part, the blocking part, and the pushing part are all located on the main body. The pushing part is located at the front end of the transportation part, and the blocking part is located at the rear end of the transportation part. Cartons pass through the pushing part, the transportation part, and the blocking part in sequence. The transportation part includes a conveying mechanism, a lifting mechanism, and a measuring mechanism. The conveying mechanism is located at the bottom, and the conveying mechanism is a conveyor belt. The lifting structure is located above the cartons, and the measuring mechanism is located above the lifting mechanism. The cartons are stacked by the lifting mechanism, and then a specific number of cartons are transported simultaneously by the measuring mechanism.
[0008] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a bracket, a target rod, and a runner. The bracket is fixed to the upper part of the main body. One end of the bracket is fixed with a sleeve. The target rod is vertically arranged and passes through the sleeve. The bottom of the target rod is rotatably connected with the runner. The target rod moves upward from bottom to top supported by the cartons.
[0009] Preferably, the measuring mechanism includes an infrared transmitter and an infrared receiver. The infrared transmitter is fixed to the upper part of the main body, and the infrared receiver is fixed to the target rod. As the punctuation rod rises, the signal emitted by the infrared transmitter can be received.
[0010] Preferably, the blocking part includes a baffle and an oil cylinder. There are two oil cylinders, which are arranged symmetrically on both sides of the baffle. One end of the oil cylinder is fixed to the main body, and the other end is hinged to one end of the baffle. The bottom of the baffle is hinged to the main body, and the top is hinged to the oil cylinder.
[0011] Preferably, the pushing part includes a first pushing mechanism and a second pushing mechanism. The first pushing mechanism includes a motor, a rotating shaft, and a lifting arm. The motor is fixed to one side of the main body. One side of the rotating shaft passes through the main body and is fixedly connected to the motor, and the other side is rotatably connected to the main body. The top of the lifting arm is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. There are three lifting arms, which are arranged at equal intervals along the rotating shaft.
[0012] Preferably, the second pushing mechanism includes a first cylinder, a fixing plate, a second cylinder, and an L-shaped push rod. The first cylinder is fixed to the upper part of the main body. The piston rod of the first cylinder is fixedly connected to the fixing plate. There are two second cylinders, which are respectively fixed to both sides of the fixing plate. The upper part of the L-shaped push rod is fixedly connected to the second cylinder, and the lower part passes through the cardboard box to push the cardboard box. The vertical part of the L-shaped push rod is a telescopic rod, and the top of the horizontal part of the L-shaped push rod is a slope to facilitate the L-shaped push rod to shovel into the cardboard box.
[0013] With the above technical solution, the baffle is controlled by the oil cylinder to block the cardboard boxes discharged. When a certain number of cardboard boxes are blocked, the oil cylinder is then controlled to lower the baffle. Through the pushing of the first cylinder and the second cylinder, the L-shaped push rod can push out a bundle of the already blocked cardboard boxes, so as to realize pushing out a certain number of cardboard boxes at the same time. In this application, the produced cardboard boxes are intermittently blocked and pushed during transportation to realize the stacking and overall transportation of the cardboard boxes, so that the cardboard boxes can be transported bundle by bundle, which facilitates the subsequent packaging operation and improves the efficiency.
[0014] Advantages of this application: 1. Through intermittent blocking and pushing, the stacking and overall transportation of cardboard boxes are realized, so that the cardboard boxes can be transported bundle by bundle, which facilitates the subsequent packaging operation and improves the efficiency; 2. By controlling the position of the infrared receiver on the target rod, the time when the infrared receiver receives the emission signal is controlled, so as to control the blocking time of the baffle to control the number of cardboard boxes transported in a bundle and meet different requirements for the number of cardboard boxes during packaging; 3. Through the design of the L-shaped push rod, especially the setting of the slope, the L-shaped push rod can smoothly insert between the cardboard boxes and can transport a certain number of cardboard boxes without affecting the remaining cardboard boxes.

Detailed implementation manners
[0019] The following is only the preferred implementation manner of the present invention, and the protection scope is not limited to this embodiment. All technical solutions falling within the idea of the present invention shall belong to the protection scope of the present invention. At the same time, it should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art, several improvements and refinements made without departing from the principle of the present invention should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
[0020] See Figures 1 to 3 , a carton transportation device, including a main body 1, a transportation part, a blocking part, and a propulsion part. The transportation part, the blocking part, and the propulsion part are all located on the main body 1. The propulsion part is located at the front end of the transportation part, and the blocking part is located at the rear end of the transportation part. The cartons pass through the propulsion part, the transportation part, and the blocking part in sequence.
[0021] The transportation part includes a conveying mechanism, a lifting mechanism, and a measuring mechanism. The conveying mechanism is located at the bottom, and the conveying mechanism is a conveyor belt. The lifting structure is located above the cartons, and the measuring mechanism is located above the lifting mechanism. The cartons are stacked by the lifting mechanism, and then a specific number of cartons are transported simultaneously by the measuring mechanism.
[0022] After passing through the transportation part, the cartons will be blocked by the blocking part, thereby realizing stacking. During the stacking process, the lifting mechanism adapts to the height change during carton stacking, and the measuring mechanism monitors the stacking height of the cartons. When the cartons are stacked to a certain height, the blocking part is controlled by the measuring mechanism so that the blocking part can release the block, allowing the propulsion part to transport the stacked cartons out simultaneously.
[0023] As shown in the attached Figure 1 , the blocking part includes a baffle 9 and an oil cylinder 8. There are two oil cylinders 8, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the baffle 9. One end of the oil cylinder 8 is fixed to the main body 1, and the other end is hinged to one end of the baffle 9. The bottom of the baffle 9 is hinged to the main body 1, and the top is hinged to the oil cylinder 8.
[0024] As shown in the appended Figure 2 figure, the lifting mechanism includes a bracket 3, a target rod 5, and a runner 7. The bracket 3 is fixed to the upper part of the main body 1. One end of the bracket 3 is fixed with a sleeve 4. The target rod 5 is vertically arranged and passes through the sleeve 4. The bottom of the target rod 5 is rotatably connected with the runner 7. The target rod 5 is supported by the carton and moves upward from the bottom.
[0025] As shown in the appended Figure 2 figure, the measuring mechanism includes an infrared emitter 2 and an infrared receiver 6. The infrared emitter 2 is fixed to the upper part of the main body 1. The infrared receiver 6 is fixed to the target rod 5. As the punctuation rod rises, the signal emitted by the infrared emitter 2 is received.
[0026] When the conveyor belt continuously transports the cartons, due to the blockage of the baffle 9 in the blocking part, the continuously arriving cartons are successively stagnated at the bottom layer, causing the cartons to be stacked slowly from bottom to top, and the height is also continuously increasing. The runner 7 is located at the highest position of the cartons. As the cartons are continuously fed into the bottom of the cartons, the height of the runner 7 becomes higher and higher, so that the height of the target rod 5 fixedly connected to the runner 7 also becomes higher and higher. The position of the infrared receiver 6 fixed to the target rod 5 is also continuously rising. When the position of the infrared receiver 6 rises to the same height as the position of the infrared emitter 2, the infrared receiver 6 receives the signal emitted by the infrared emitter 2. The infrared receiver 6 is electrically connected to the oil cylinder 8, thereby controlling the contraction of the oil cylinder 8, so that the baffle 9 hinged to the oil cylinder 8 can change from the vertical blocking state to the horizontal unblocked state, enabling the stacked bundled cartons to be sent out as a whole through the pushing part.
[0027] As shown in the appended Figure 3 figure, the pushing part includes a first pushing mechanism and a second pushing mechanism. The first pushing mechanism includes a motor 10, a rotating shaft 11, and a lifting arm 12. The motor 10 is fixed to one side of the main body 1. One side of the rotating shaft 11 passes through the main body 1 and is fixedly connected to the motor 10, and the other side is rotatably connected to the main body 1. The top of the lifting arm 12 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 11. There are three lifting arms 12, which are arranged at equal intervals along the rotating shaft 11.
[0028] The second pushing mechanism includes a first cylinder 13, a fixing plate 15, a second cylinder 14, and an L-shaped push rod 16. The first cylinder 13 is fixed to the upper part of the main body 1. The piston rod of the first cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 15. There are two second cylinders 14, which are respectively fixed to both sides of the fixing plate 15. The upper part of the L-shaped push rod 16 is fixedly connected to the second cylinder 14, and the lower part passes through the carton to push the carton. The vertical part of the L-shaped push rod 16 is a telescopic rod, and the top of the horizontal part of the L-shaped push rod 16 is a slope 17 to facilitate the L-shaped push rod 16 to shovel into the carton.
[0029] When the cartons are continuously conveyed, through the first propulsion mechanism, that is, the motor 10 drives the movement of the lifting arm 12, so that the cartons at the front end can enter the transportation part one by one at a fixed and stable rhythm as the lifting arm 12 rises and falls. Thus, under the blocking of the blocking part, a state of carton stacking is formed. The regular rising and falling of the lifting arm 12 enables the cartons at the front end to be stably transported from the front end one by one into the transportation part without causing chaos or paper jams.
[0030] When some cartons need to be transported together under the blocking of the blocking part, the second propulsion mechanism propels them. First, two cylinder twos 14 push simultaneously to control the lower end of the L-shaped push rod 16 to be inserted into the carton stack. And in order not to damage or disorder the cartons during the insertion process, the bottom of the L-shaped push rod, that is, the insertion part, is even made into a slope 17, which is more convenient to stably insert between the cartons. Then, the cylinder one 13 pushes to advance the L-shaped push rod 16 that has been inserted into the cartons forward, driving the stacked cartons on the L-shaped push rod 16 to be transported to the rear transportation part simultaneously, realizing the simultaneous transportation of the cartons. During the period from when the cylinder two 14 inserts into the cartons to when the cylinder one 13 officially starts to push, since the cartons at the front end will still come in successively through the lifting arm 12, the overall height of the cartons will still increase from bottom to top. At this time, the L-shaped push rod 16 will also rise with the cartons. Therefore, the vertical part of the L-shaped push rod 16 is set as a telescopic rod to facilitate the height change of the L-shaped push rod 16 during this period, ensuring that the height position of the cylinder two 14 fixed to it does not change.
[0031] The utility model realizes the stacking and overall transportation of cartons through intermittent blocking and propulsion, so that the cartons can be conveyed in bundles, facilitating subsequent packaging operations and improving efficiency.
