[0030] The first driving member 33 of this embodiment includes a driving wheel 331 disposed at one end of the bracket 31, a first driving motor 332 drivingly connected to the driving wheel 331, a driven wheel 333 disposed at the other end of the bracket 31, and a transmission belt 334 drivingly connected to the driving wheel 331 and the driven wheel 333. A first transmission wheel assembly 335 is disposed between the first driving motor 332 and the driving wheel 331, and the transmission belt 334 is connected to the base 32. Specifically, the first driving motor 332 drives the driving wheel 331 to rotate via the first transmission wheel assembly 335. The rotating driving wheel 331 drives the driven wheel 333 to rotate via the transmission belt 334. Since the transmission belt 334 is connected to the base 32, the first driving member 33 is driven and connected to the base 32. The first transmission wheel group 335 includes two first transmission wheels and a first belt connected between the two first transmission wheels. One first transmission wheel is connected to the output end of the first drive motor 332, and the other first transmission wheel is connected to the driving wheel 331.

The rotating active roller 21 drives the driven roller 23 to rotate through the conveyor belt 24, and the conveyor belt 24 moves in contact with the upper surface of the adsorption platform 25 to place the carton to be printed on the conveyor belt 24. Since the diameter of the waist-shaped hole 27 is larger than the diameter of the air hole, the multiple waist-shaped holes 27 on the conveyor belt 24 are facing the multiple air holes on the adsorption platform 25. The exhaust fan 26 quickly extracts the internal air of the adsorption platform 25, so that the carton to be printed is vacuum-adsorbed and tightly attached to the conveyor belt 24, and moves with the conveyor belt 24, effectively preventing the carton to be printed from warping or shifting, thereby improving the smoothness of carton transportation.
