One end of the screw rod 24 is fixedly connected to one side of the stop block 9. The installation frame 27 is provided with a threaded hole, and the screw rod 24 is threadedly connected to the installation frame 27. The setting of the stop block 9 can prevent the installation frame 27 from separating from the screw rod 24 when the screw rod 24 rotates to drive the installation frame 27 to move up and down. The up-and-down adjustment mechanism 2 has a simple structure. Through the setting of the adjustment outer ring 26, the edge folding assembly 3 can be adjusted up and down, so that the carton can be better edge folded, and at the same time, it can adapt to the edge folding operations of cartons with different heights;

[0021] On one side of the adjusting outer ring 26, there is a hemming component 3. The hemming component 3 includes a second motor 31 installed on one side of the adjusting outer ring 26. On one side of the adjusting outer ring 26, there is a motor bracket 7. One side of the motor bracket 7 is correspondingly installed with the adjusting outer ring 26, and one side of the motor bracket 7 is fixedly connected to the adjusting outer ring 26. The installation end of the second motor 31 is correspondingly installed with one side of the motor bracket 7, and the installation end of the second motor 31 is fixedly connected to the motor bracket 7. The output end of the second motor 31 is connected to a bidirectional threaded rod 32. The threads at both ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 32 are arranged in opposite directions. One end of the bidirectional threaded rod 32 is correspondingly installed with the output end of the second motor 31, and one end of the bidirectional threaded rod 32 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 31. Three groups of shaft holes are provided on both sides of the adjusting outer ring 26.

The bidirectional threaded rod 32 is rotatably connected to the adjusting outer ring 26. Two connecting blocks 33 are sleeved on the outer circle of the bidirectional threaded rod 32. The bidirectional threaded rod 32 is rotatably connected to the connecting blocks 33. Below each group of connecting blocks 33, there is a hemming rod 34. The lower part of the connecting block 33 is correspondingly installed with the upper part of the hemming rod 34, and the connecting block 33 is fixedly connected to the hemming rod 34. At both ends of the hemming rod 34 far from the connecting block 33, there are synchronizing blocks 35. The lower part of the synchronizing block 35 is correspondingly installed with the upper part of the two hemming rods 34, and the lower part of the synchronizing block 35 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the hemming rod 34. An auxiliary rod 36 is arranged inside the inner circles of the synchronizing blocks 35 on the two hemming rods 34. The outer circle of the auxiliary rod 36 is correspondingly installed with the inner circle of the synchronizing block 35. The auxiliary rod 36 is rotatably connected to the synchronizing block 35. The two ends of the two auxiliary rods 36 are respectively correspondingly installed with the shaft holes on both sides of the two adjusting outer rings 26. The auxiliary rod 36 is rotatably connected to the adjusting outer ring 26. The setting of the synchronizing block 35 and the auxiliary rod 36 can make the two hemming rods 34 move more synchronously and stably when driven by the operation of the second motor 31, the bidirectional threaded rod 32 and the connecting blocks 33. The setting of the hemming component 3 can hem the two sides of the paper box, so that the hemming operation of the paper box can be better carried out. Below the adjusting outer ring 26 and above the conveyor 1, there is a hemming auxiliary bottom plate 4. There is a gap between the lower part of the hemming auxiliary bottom plate 4 and the upper part of the conveyor 1. The setting of the gap between the hemming auxiliary bottom plate 4 and the conveyor 1 can allow the paper box board that has not been hemmed to pass through normally. At the same time, through the hemming auxiliary bottom plate 4, the side of the paper box that does not need to be hemmed below can be limited and resisted, so that the paper box can be better carried out during the hemming operation. At both ends of the hemming auxiliary bottom plate 4, there are connecting plates 8. The lower part of the connecting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the two ends of the upper part of the hemming auxiliary bottom plate 4. The upper part of the connecting plate 8 is correspondingly installed with the lower part of the adjusting outer ring 26, and the upper part of the connecting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the adjusting outer ring 26. The setting of the connecting plate 8 can stably install the hemming auxiliary bottom plate 4, and at the same time enable the hemming auxiliary bottom plate 4 to move up and down following the adjusting outer ring 26. On the outside of the hemming auxiliary bottom plate 4, on one side of the two support legs 21 on the same side, there are guiding strips 5.On the sides of the two sets of guiding bars 5 away from each other, they are respectively installed corresponding to the two sets of supporting legs 21 on the same side. One side of the guiding bar 5 is fixedly connected to the supporting leg 21. One end of the guiding bar 5 is set to be guiding. The setting that one end of the guiding bar 5 is guiding can better convey and guide the cardboard box to be hemmed, so that the hemming operation can be better carried out. At the same time, the stability between the two sets of supporting legs 21 on the same side can be strengthened through the setting of the guiding bar 5.

[0022] In this embodiment, when an operator needs to perform a hemming operation on a cardboard box, the cardboard box is placed on the conveyor 1 for conveying. The operation of the conveyor 1 drives the cardboard box to move along. During the conveying process, the cardboard box first passes through the guiding end of the guiding bar 5 for guiding, so that the cardboard box follows the conveyor 1 and moves to the lower part of the hemming auxiliary bottom plate 4. At this time, the conveyor 1 pauses operation. Then, the first motor 23 is powered on for operation. The first motor 23 drives the mounting frame 27 to move up and down through the screw rod 24. When the mounting frame 27 moves up and down, it drives the adjusting outer ring 26 to slide up and down along the supporting leg 21 for adjustment. When the adjusting outer ring 26 moves, it drives the hemming assembly 3 to move along. After the height position of the hemming rod 34 is adjusted through the adjusting outer ring 26, the operator powers on the second motor 31 for operation. The operation of the second motor 31 drives the two hemming rods 34 to perform width adjustment operation through the bidirectional threaded rod 32 and the connecting block 33, so that the width of the two hemming rods 34 meets the requirements of the cardboard box width specification. Then, the adjusting outer ring 26 moves downward, so that the adjusting outer ring 26 drives the hemming rod 34 to perform a hemming operation on the cardboard box. At the same time, the conveyor 1 continues to operate, so as to complete the continuous conveying operation of the cardboard box after hemming, and further complete the hemming operation on the cardboard box.

[0023] The above specific embodiment is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Based on the technical solution of the present invention and the relevant revelations of the above embodiment, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiment.
