Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of carton processing, and in particular relates to a carton processing machine slotting device and a carton processing machine including the same. Background Art

[0002] The background description provided here is used to generally introduce the background of this application. The work of the presently named inventors described in this background section to the extent that it does not constitute prior art at the time of filing is neither explicitly nor implicitly admitted to be prior art that conflicts with this application.

[0003] The slotting mechanism plays a crucial role in carton processing machines. Before processing, the operator adjusts the slotting blade height using the slotting lift fine-tuning motor based on factors such as cardboard thickness and processing requirements. During processing, the cardboard or corrugated paper is delivered to the slotting mechanism via the paper feed module. The slotting blade motor controls the blade's lift and lowering to complete the slotting operation. After the slotting is complete, the cardboard is transferred to the subsequent module for further processing.

[0004] In the prior art, the slotting device of a carton processing machine needs to ensure that the cardboard is stationary when slotting the cardboard so that the slotting device can accurately slot at the target position. For example, Chinese patent document CN210881089U discloses a fully automatic corrugated paper slotting device, including a slotting knife beam module, a slotting knife base beam arranged at the bottom of the slotting knife beam module, the slotting knife beam module is provided with a slotting knife, and the slotting knife is driven by a power device to move up and down to complete the slotting action. In this type of slotting device, when the cardboard is conveyed to the slotting device, although the slotting knife can be made to wait for the cardboard to be processed at the slotting position, the entire slotting process performed by the carton processing machine after the cardboard reaches the designated processing position needs to stop the paper feeding action to keep the cardboard stationary. The carton processing machine can only continue the paper feeding action after the slotting action is completely completed to complete the subsequent processing steps of the carton. This defect of interrupting the paper feeding action during slotting greatly reduces the working efficiency of the carton processing machine.

[0005] Therefore, there is a need in the art for a new slotting device to improve the working efficiency of a carton processing machine. Utility Model Content

[0028] The following description is merely exemplary in nature and is not intended to limit the present application, applications, or uses. Furthermore, no intention is made to be bound by any expressed or implied theory presented in the preceding technical field, background, and utility model disclosure, or the following detailed description. It should be understood that throughout the drawings, corresponding reference numerals identify similar or corresponding parts or features.

[0029] The present application will now be further described. In the following paragraphs, different aspects of the present application are defined in more detail. Unless expressly indicated to the contrary, each aspect so defined may be combined with any other aspect(s). In particular, any feature indicated as preferred or advantageous may be combined with any other feature(s) indicated as preferred or advantageous.

[0030] In response to the problems existing in the prior art, the present application provides a slotting device for a carton processing machine, which can advance along with the cardboard during the paper feeding process and slot the cardboard during the advancement, thereby eliminating the need to interrupt the paper feeding action due to the slotting action and significantly improving the processing efficiency of the carton processing machine. Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 , shows a slotting device 10 for a carton processing machine according to the principles of the present application. The slotting device 10 for a carton processing machine includes a slotting module 100 and a movable module 200. The movable module 200 includes a pushing device 210, a slide rail 220, a slide rail support seat 230, and a first connecting member 240, and the slotting module 100 includes a slider 160. The pushing device 210 is connected to the slotting module 100 through the first connecting member 240, so as to be able to push the slotting module 100 to move. The slide rail 220 is fixedly connected to the slide rail support seat 230, and the slider 160 is slidably connected to the slide rail 220, so that the slotting module can slide along the slide rail 220. It should be understood that the pushing device 210 refers to a device that can provide power so that the pushed device, such as the slotting module, can move along a predetermined route. Thus, the moving module 200 is connected to the slotting module 100 through the first connecting member 240 and the slide rail 220, so that the slotting module 100 can make linear reciprocating motion along the slide rail 220 under the push of the pushing device 210, so that the slotting module 100 can slot the cardboard during the movement.

[0031] It is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that the pushing direction of the pushing device 210 can be the same as the forward direction of the cardboard, or it can be opposite to the forward direction of the cardboard. When it is opposite to the forward direction of the cardboard, the slotting module 100 moves forward together with the cardboard under the pull of the pushing device 210, and returns to the initial position when the cardboard enters the slotting module 100 under the push of the pushing device 210. During the paper feeding process of the carton processing machine, the slotting module 100 moves forward together with the cardboard under the push or pull of the pushing device 210, and completes the slotting action at the predetermined position on the cardboard during the forward process. After the slotting action is completed, the slotting module 100 can return to the initial position under the pull or push of the pushing device 210, and then move forward together with the next cardboard and slot it. This cycle is repeated, so that the cardboard does not need to pause during the paper feeding process, thereby improving the working efficiency of the carton processing machine.

[0032] Refer to the attached Figure 2 Advantageously, the sliders 160 are evenly arranged along the length of the slotting module 200. For example, when there are two sliders 160, the sliders 160 are arranged at or near both ends of the slotting module 200 and are symmetrically arranged along the length of the slotting module 200. When there are more than two sliders 160, such as three or four, the spacing between the sliders 160 is equal and they are symmetrically arranged along the length of the slotting module 200 to ensure the balance of the slotting module 200. It will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the number of sliders 160 and the slide rails 220 slidably connected thereto can be set according to the length of the slotting module 200 to ensure that they provide stable support for the slotting module 200 and maintain its balance. The present application does not impose any limitation on the number of sliders 160 and slide rails 220.

[0033] Refer to the attached Figure 1 , the mobile module 200 may further include a first support beam 250, wherein the pushing device 210 is fixedly connected to the first support beam 250 by, for example, a threaded or snap-fit structure or other means. Advantageously, the first support beam 250 is in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped or a substantially rectangular parallelepiped, so as to provide a plane for connection for the pushing device 210 or other devices, so that they can be stably mounted on the first support beam 250. Advantageously, the mobile module 200 may further include a second connecting member 260. The pushing device 210 is fixedly connected to the plane of the first support beam 250 via the second connecting member 260. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the pushing device 210 may also be connected to the housing or the ground of the carton processing machine via the second connecting member 260.

[0034] Refer to the attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 3In some embodiments, the moving module 200 may further include a second support beam 270, and the pushing device 210 may include a moving motor 211, a ball nut 212, a lead screw 213, a first lead screw bearing seat 214, and a second lead screw bearing seat 215. The first lead screw bearing seat 214 and the second lead screw bearing seat 215 are respectively disposed on the first support beam 250 and the second support beam 270. The ends of the lead screw 213 are respectively connected to the first lead screw bearing seat 214 and the second lead screw bearing seat 215. The output end of the moving motor 211 is connected to the lead screw 213, thereby driving the lead screw 213 to rotate. The ball nut 212 is sleeved on the lead screw 213 and is connected to the slotting module 100 via the first connector 240, thereby connecting the pushing device 210 to the slotting module 100. Therefore, when the moving motor 211 drives the lead screw 213 to rotate, it can further drive the ball nut 212 to move along the lead screw 213, thereby driving the slotting module 100 to move along the slide rail 220. Therefore, the cooperation between the moving motor 211, the lead screw 213, and the ball nut 212 enables accurate control of the moving speed and moving distance of the slotting module 100, and facilitates adjustment of the moving speed and moving distance.

[0035] In some embodiments, the first support beam 250 is rectangular or substantially rectangular, and the movable motor 211 can be connected to the second connecting member 260 via threads or snaps, with the second connecting member 260 connected to the lower surface of the first support beam 250, and the first bearing seat 214 connected to the upper surface of the first support beam 250. This facilitates the connection between the output end of the movable motor 211 and the lead screw 213, saves installation space, and makes the structure of the slotting device more compact. In some embodiments, the second support beam 270 can also be rectangular or substantially rectangular to provide a flat surface for the second lead screw bearing seat 215 or other devices to connect to, allowing them to be stably installed on the first support beam 270.

[0036] Alternatively, in some embodiments, the pushing device 210 may include a hydraulic cylinder (not shown), which may be connected to the first support beam 250 via a second connecting member 260, and the piston rod end of the hydraulic cylinder may be connected to the slotting module 100 via a first connecting member 240, so that the slotting module 100 can be driven to reciprocate along the slide rail 220 by the extension and contraction of the piston rod.

[0037] Refer to the attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2The slotting module 100 includes a slotting beam 110, a lower blade support beam 120, a slotting motor assembly 130, and a power transmission assembly 140. The slotting beam 110 is disposed opposite the lower blade support beam 120. A slotting blade 111 is disposed on the side of the slotting beam 110 facing the lower blade support beam 120, so that the lower blade support beam 120 can support the cardboard when the slotting blade 111 performs the slotting operation. The power transmission assembly 140 includes a transmission shaft 141, an eccentric mechanism 142, and a connecting rod 143. The eccentric mechanism 142 and the connecting rod 143 are disposed at both ends of the slotting beam 110 and the transmission shaft 141, and the ends of the connecting rod 143 are respectively connected to the slotting beam 110 and the eccentric mechanism 142. The ends of the transmission shaft 141 are respectively connected to the eccentric mechanism 142, and the output end of the slotting motor assembly 130 is connected to the transmission shaft 141. Therefore, the slotting motor assembly 130 can drive the transmission shaft 141 to rotate, and drive the eccentric wheel mechanism 142 to move through the transmission shaft 141, so that the eccentric wheel mechanism 142 can drive the slotting beam 110 to move up and down through the connecting rod 143, and then drive the slotting knife 111 to move up and down to complete the slotting action.

[0038] Refer to the attached Figure 1 , Attachment Figure 2 and attached Figure 3 Advantageously, in some embodiments, the slotting module 100 further includes side panels 150, which are disposed at both ends of the lower blade support beam 120. Both ends of the lower blade support beam 120 are connected to the first side surface or inner side surface of the side panels 150 to secure the lower blade support beam 120. The eccentric wheel mechanism 142 is connected to the second side surface of the side panel 150, that is, the side surface opposite to the first side surface or the outer side surface. The slide rail support seat 230 can be disposed on one side of the first side surface of the side panel 150. The slotting motor assembly 130 includes a slotting motor 131 and a gear set 132. The output end of the slotting motor 131 is connected to the gear set 132. The transmission shaft 141 passes through the gears of the gear set 132, so that the output end of the slotting motor 131 can be connected to the transmission shaft 141 via the gear set 132. Both ends of the transmission shaft 141 pass through the side panels 150 to connect to the eccentric wheel mechanism 142. Advantageously, the slotting motor assembly 130 may further include a third connector 133, through which the slotting motor 132 may be connected to the lower blade support beam 120. This allows the slotting motor 132 to move along with the slotting module 100, allowing the slotting module 100 to slot the cardboard while moving. This also saves installation space and makes the slotting device 10 more compact. Advantageously, the slider 160 is connected to the bottom of the lower blade support beam 120, that is, the side away from the slot beam 110, so that the slotting module 100 can move along the slide rail 220.

[0039] Advantageously, the ball nut 212 is connected to the lower blade support beam 120 via the first connector 240, thereby enabling the movement motor 211 to drive the lower blade support beam 120, thereby driving the entire slotting module 100. Advantageously, the ball nut 212 is connected to the middle of the lower blade support beam 120 via the first connector 240 to ensure balanced force on the slotting module 100. It should be understood that the number of propulsion devices 210 can be set based on their output power and the size of the slotting module 100 to ensure sufficient power, and this application does not impose any limitations on this.

[0040] Refer to the attached Figure 3 The present application also provides a carton processing machine 20. The carton processing machine 20 includes a slotting device 10 according to the principles of the present application, wherein a slide rail support base 230, a first support beam 250, and a second support beam 270 are fixedly connected to the housing 21 of the carton processing machine 20, thereby enabling the slotting module 100 to move relative to the movable motor 211, the lead screw 213, and the slide rail support base 230. It should be understood that the slide rail support base 230, the first support beam 250, and the second support beam 270 can be connected to the side of the housing 21 or to the bottom or top of the housing 21, and the present application does not limit this.

[0041] Refer to the attached Figure 3 and attached Figure 4 A window 22 is provided on the shell 21, and the eccentric wheel mechanism 142 and the connecting rod 143 extend out of the window 22 and are arranged on the outside of the window 22 so that the slotting module 100 can move. The width of the window 22 is greater than the movement distance of the slotting module 100, thereby ensuring that the slotting module 100 has sufficient movement space.

[0042] Refer to the attached Figure 5 , the carton processing machine 20 according to the principle of the present application also includes a leading edge device 30, a pressing line device 40, a longitudinal cutting device 50 and a cross-cutting device 60, so as to complete the paper feeding process, the pressing line process, the longitudinal cutting process and the cross-cutting process. In some embodiments, the leading edge device 30, the slotting device 10, the pressing line device 40, the longitudinal cutting device 50 and the cross-cutting device 60 are connected in sequence. When the carton processing machine 20 is running, the cardboard advances from the leading edge device 30 to the slotting device 10. At this time, the slotting module 100 advances at the same speed as the cardboard under the action of the mobile module 200, and slots the cardboard during the forward process. After the slotting is completed, the slotting module 100 returns to the initial position under the action of the mobile module 200 and continues to advance with the next cardboard. The cardboard that has completed the slotting continues to advance to the pressing line device 40, the longitudinal cutting device 50 and the cross-cutting device 60, and undergoes the pressing line process, the longitudinal cutting process, and the cross-cutting process in sequence, thereby completing the processing process.

[0043] According to the slotting device and carton processing machine of the present application, there is no need to stop feeding the cardboard when slotting the cardboard, thereby advantageously improving the processing speed and efficiency of the cardboard.
