[0014] Example 1:
[0015] The present embodiment is a foam box packaging machine, such as Figure 1 、 2 , 3, and 4. This embodiment includes: a workbench 2 mounted on a frame for placing a workpiece 01 (indicated by a two-dot chain line in each figure) and capable of driving the workpiece to rotate horizontally; multiple workpieces can be placed on the workbench; a pressing plate 3 is provided above the workbench, capable of pressing the workpiece downward and rotating horizontally with the workbench; a sealing tape device 4 is provided on one side of the workbench; the sealing tape device includes: a tape reel rack 401 horizontally arranged in sequence around one side of the workpiece; a tape guide wheel 402; a tape wheel 404 with a tape wheel swing arm 403 capable of applying tape as the workpiece surface changes; a retractable cutting knife 405; and a tape pressing wheel assembly 407 with a tape pressing wheel swing arm 406 capable of pressing tape as the workpiece surface changes.
[0016] The workpiece described in this embodiment is a foam box, a lightweight plastic product that is designed to protect against knocks and bumps. It is typically divided into two parts, upper and lower, with a snap-together seam in the middle. Taping the seam securely seals the box. The foam box can be cylindrical or rectangular. If it is rectangular, multiple workpieces can be placed on the workbench, allowing multiple foam boxes to be packaged at once.
[0017] The workbench is disc-shaped. To secure the workpiece, a T-slot can be provided. T-bolts, combined with positioning bars, provide front, back, and left / right constraints. To secure the workpiece during packaging, this embodiment utilizes a vertically movable pressure plate that can also rotate with the workpiece on the workbench.
[0018] The core part of this embodiment is the sealing tape device. The sealing tape device is used to wrap the tape around the workpiece and stick it to the seam of the foam box to seal the foam box. This embodiment uses a tape wheel to drive the front end of the tape, and under the swing of the tape wheel swing arm, it is attached to the outer peripheral surface of the workpiece. As the workpiece rotates horizontally, the tape is pulled out and attached to the workpiece. After the tape is attached to the workpiece, a pressure tape wheel assembly is used to press the tape onto the surface of the workpiece. In order to ensure that the tape can be pressed well on both sides of the positive corner of the rectangular workpiece, the pressure tape wheel assembly can use two pressure wheels to grind the two sides of the positive corner respectively. The pressure tape wheel assembly is also provided on a swing arm so that the workpiece moves with the workpiece surface during rotation and the outer surface of the workpiece is evenly grinded.
[0019] The up and down movement of the pressing plate, the horizontal rotation of the workbench, and the swinging of the adhesive tape wheel swing arm and the adhesive tape wheel swing arm can be driven by an electric motor, or by pneumatic or hydraulic transmission.
[0020] The working process of the packaging machine described in this embodiment is (taking a rectangular hexahedron workpiece as an example): place the workpiece between the two positioning bars of the workbench to form constraints on the front, back, left and right of the workpiece, then press down the pressure plate to fix the workpiece to the workbench, start the rotation of the workload, and the workpiece and the pressure plate also rotate together. The adhesive tape wheel swing arm swings, and the adhesive tape wheel drives the front end of the tape paper 02 to move, pulling the tape out of the tape disk, changing the direction through the tape guide wheel, and the tape paper is attached to the surface of the workpiece under the guidance of the adhesive tape wheel. The workbench drives the workpiece to rotate, and the pressure tape wheel swing arm drives the pressure wheel to press on the tape paper, pressing the tape paper on the surface of the workpiece. As the workpiece rotates, the tape paper surrounds and sticks to the workpiece. After the tape paper has made a circle, the cutting knife extends to cut off the tape paper, and the adhesive tape wheel swings back (such as Figure 4 The middle adhesive tape wheel swings in the direction of arrow C and reaches the dotted line position), the workpiece rotates horizontally for another circle, and the adhesive tape wheel assembly compacts the adhesive tape paper that has been stuck on the workpiece again, and then the adhesive tape wheel swings back ( Figure 4The swing arm of the medium-pressure belt pulley swings in the direction of arrow D and reaches the dotted line position), and the packaging process is completed.
[0021] The above series of actions can be controlled by a program controller, which can be a PLC or an industrial computer, which is an electronic device with digital storage and computing capabilities.
[0022] In order to adapt to workpieces of different sizes or different numbers of workpieces, the sealing tape device can be designed to be adjustable up and down and front and back.
[0023] Example 2:
[0024] This embodiment is an improvement of the first embodiment and is a refinement of the first embodiment regarding the adhesive tape sealing device. The adhesive tape sealing device described in this embodiment is further provided with a position adjustment frame 5, which includes a horizontal adjustment platform 501 connected to the frame, the horizontal adjustment platform is provided with at least two columns 502, and the columns are provided with vertical adjustment plates 503 that can move up and down along the columns. The vertical adjustment plates are connected to the tape reel frame, the tape guide wheel, the adhesive tape wheel, the cutting knife, and the tape pressing wheel assembly, such as Figure 1 、 2 , 3, and 4.
[0025] In order to enable the tape reel rack, tape guide wheel, adhesive tape wheel, cutting knife, and tape pressing wheel group to move forward and backward to adapt to workpieces of different sizes or different numbers, and move up and down to adapt to workpieces of different heights, this embodiment provides a horizontal adjustment platform that can move forward and backward to adjust the front and back positions, a vertical column is provided on the horizontal adjustment platform, and a vertical adjustment plate is provided on the column for up and down movement, and the tape reel rack, tape guide wheel, adhesive tape wheel, cutting knife, and tape pressing wheel group are provided on the vertical adjustment plate, thereby realizing the front and back and up and down position adjustment of the tape sealing device.
[0026] Example 3:
[0027] This embodiment is an improvement of the above embodiment and is a refinement of the above embodiment regarding the tape pressing wheel set. The tape pressing wheel set described in this embodiment includes at least two horizontally arranged tape pressing wheels, such as Figure 3 、 4 shown.
[0028] For workpieces with cylindrical outer surfaces, a single tape pressing wheel can well realize the function of tape pressing, but for workpieces with positive corners, at least two tape pressing wheels are required to compact the tape on both sides of the positive corners, such as Figure 4 shown.
[0029] Example 4:
[0030] This embodiment is an improvement of the above embodiment and is a refinement of the above embodiment regarding the workbench. The workbench described in this embodiment is provided with a workpiece positioning bar 301 that can be adjusted in position. Figure 1 、 2 , as shown in 3.
[0031] The workpiece positioning bar can be fixed to the workbench with bolts, and the workbench can be designed with T-slots to match the T-bolts.
[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention and is not a limitation. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred arrangement scheme, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that the technical solution of the present invention (such as the action drive mode, control process and workpiece shape, etc.) can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
