[0026] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0027] Example:

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, a horizontal linear dispensing and folding box integrated device 2 of the present invention includes a product loading unit 1, a product pushing mechanism 2, a flower box packaging unit 3 and a clamping belt line 4.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the product loading unit 1 includes a hose loading rack 11, a hose drop guide mechanism 12 and a product chain line 13 which are arranged in sequence. The middle and rear parts of the product chain line 13 are provided with a bottle transfer mechanism 14, a product sensor 15 and a hose posture adjustment mechanism 16 in sequence. The bottle transfer mechanism 14 and the product sensor 15 are both located on the side of the product chain line 13.

[0030] The product chain line 13 can be used to transport both hoses and bottles. Regardless of the product type, each is separated by partitions and transported horizontally. The hose loading rack 11 is used to place hose-packaged products. The hose loading rack 11 allows the hoses to pass through the hose drop guide mechanism 12 one by one and fall onto the product chain line 13. The bottle transfer mechanism 14 moves the bottles from another bottle assembly line (not shown) parallel to the product chain line 13 into the partitions of the product chain line 13. The product sensor 15 can sense whether a hose or bottle is present in the partition. Because the hose's posture is not fixed when it falls onto the product chain line 13, but it needs to be fixed during boxing, the hose posture adjustment mechanism 16 is used to adjust the hose's posture in advance. The hose posture adjustment mechanism 16 adjusts the horizontal position and rotation angle of the hose on the product chain line 13.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the bottle transfer mechanism 14 includes a bracket 141, a motor 142, a large swing frame 143, a small swing frame 144, a synchronous belt mechanism 146 and a plurality of bottle body suction nozzles 145. The motor 142 is fixed to the outside of the bracket 141 and drives the large swing frame 142 to swing around the first axis. The small swing frame 143 is rotatably connected to the large swing frame 142 through the second axis. The bottle body suction nozzle 145 is fixed to the lower part of the small swing frame 143. The first axis and the second axis are parallel. One of the synchronous wheels in the synchronous belt mechanism 145 is fixed to the bracket 141 and is coaxial with the first axis. The other synchronous wheel is fixed to the second axis.

[0032] The bottle suction nozzle 145 is used to pick up and place bottles, located to the side of the bottle. The large swing frame 142 swings without colliding with the small swing frame 143, the bottle suction nozzle 145, or the bottle. Because of the timing belt mechanism 145, the swing direction of the small swing frame 143 is always in the opposite direction of the swing direction of the large swing frame 142. Therefore, regardless of the swing direction of the small swing frame 143, the bottle suction nozzle 145 always points downward, although it moves horizontally and vertically.

[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the flower box packaging unit 3 includes a flower box loading rack 31, a flower box unfolding and transferring mechanism 32 and a forming conveyor line 33, which are arranged in sequence. A box stacking assembly 34 is provided on both sides of the forming conveyor line 33. The box stacking assembly 34 includes a first left ear folding mechanism 341a, a first right ear folding mechanism 342a, a first lower tongue folding mechanism 343a, a first glue dispensing mechanism 344a and a first capping cylinder 345a, which are arranged in sequence on the first side of the forming conveyor line 33, and a second right ear folding mechanism 342b, a second left ear folding mechanism 342c, a second lower tongue folding mechanism 343a, a first glue dispensing mechanism 344a and a first capping cylinder 345a, which are arranged in sequence on the second side of the forming conveyor line 34. The ear folding mechanism 341b, the second lower tongue folding mechanism 343b, the second glue dispensing mechanism 344b and the second capping cylinder 345b, the middle section of the forming conveyor line 33 is the box entering station, the end of the product chain line 13 is located on the first side of the box entering station, the product pushing mechanism 2 is located above the box entering station and is used to push the product from the product chain line 13 to the forming conveyor line 33, the second right ear folding mechanism 342b and the second left ear folding mechanism 341b are located on the feed side of the box entering station, and the rest of the box stacking assembly 34 is located on the discharge side of the box entering station.

[0034] The flower boxes on the flower box loading rack 31 are flattened and pre-creased. The flower boxes are unfolded one by one by the flower box unfolding and transfer mechanism 32 and sent to the forming conveyor line 33. The forming conveyor line 33 is two belt lines arranged above and below, which can clamp the flower boxes, keep them in the unfolded state, and continue to move backward. The flower box has a left ear wing, a right ear wing, a tongue or a top cover on one side or both sides, so the left and right ear wings need to be closed in sequence, the tongue folded up or the top cover pressed down, and glue needs to be applied to the outside of the left and right ear wings before the top cover is pressed down. Because the left and right ear wings at the two ends of the flower box are arranged in opposite order, the first left ear folding mechanism 341a is used to fold the left ear wing on one side, and then the first right ear folding mechanism 342a is used to fold the right ear wing on the other side. The second right ear folding mechanism 342b is used to fold the right ear wing on the other side, and then the second left ear folding mechanism 341b is used. At the box entry station, the first side of the flower box cannot be closed, but the left and right ear wings on the second side can be closed first, thereby blocking the product from entering the box. So, while the process is the same on both sides of the flower box, the order of closing the box is different. For flower boxes using tongues, the first lower tongue folding mechanism 343a and / or the second lower tongue folding mechanism 343b fold the tongues upward from the bottom and insert them into the gaps above the left and right ear flaps. For flower boxes using top covers, as the flower box moves, the first glue dispensing mechanism 344a and / or the second glue dispensing mechanism 344b each leave a line of glue on the outer surfaces of the left and right ear flaps, allowing the top cover to adhere to the left and right ear flaps. The first and second lid pressing cylinders 345a and 345b respectively press the top cover downward from the upper side of the top cover to complete the adhesion. Therefore, each side of the stacking box assembly 34 can be suitable for both tongue-insertion and glue-dispensing working conditions. The entire equipment can be applied to double-sided glue-dispensing, double-sided tongue-insertion, one-side glue-dispensing and one-side tongue-insertion, and double-sided glue-dispensing and tongue-insertion compatible working conditions. Different types of flower box products can be made on the same equipment without disassembly and replacement, which greatly improves the production change efficiency and meets the diversity of flower box styles.

[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, the product pushing mechanism 2 includes a fixed plate 21 perpendicular to the conveying direction of the forming conveyor line 33, a push rod 22 for pushing the product into the flower box, and a translation module 23 for driving the push rod 22 to move along the plate surface direction of the fixed plate 21. A push rod fine-tuning mechanism 24 is provided between the push rod 22 and the translation module 23, and a guide mechanism 25 for guiding the pushing direction of the push rod 22 is provided below the fixed plate 21.

[0036] The unfolded flower boxes are pre-delivered by the forming conveyor line 33 to the exit of the guide mechanism 25. Products located between the partitions of the product chain line 13 must pass through the guide mechanism 25 before entering the flower boxes. The product's rotation is achieved by the extension and retraction of the push rod 22, which is driven by the translation module 23. The translation module 23 utilizes a synchronous wheel mechanism. To adapt the push rod 22 to varying product lengths, the push rod fine-tuning mechanism 24 allows for flexible adjustment of the initial position of the push rod 22, ensuring that it does not interfere with the delivery of the product and that the product is properly positioned in the flower box.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the clamping belt lines 4 are two groups of belt lines arranged on both sides of the discharge direction of the forming conveyor line 33, and the conveying surfaces between the two groups of belt lines are located in the vertical plane and are parallel to each other.

[0038] For products that require glue to be applied, after leaving the forming conveyor line 33, the flower box is clamped on both sides by the clamping belt line 4 and continues to be conveyed. The contact surface between the clamping belt line 4 and the flower box is the outer side of the top cover. At this time, the glue line spreads and adheres more firmly to the left and right ear flaps, greatly reducing the defect rate.

[0039] The above descriptions are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
