[0002] The shift fork mechanism used for heat-sealing positioning in paper cup packaging machines is a functional component that uses mechanical movement to achieve precise alignment between the paper cup and the heat-sealing mold. Its core functions include positioning correction and posture stabilization. Before the heat-sealing process, the shift fork forcibly adjusts the posture of the paper cup through swinging or clamping actions to ensure that the cup mouth coincides with the center line of the heat-sealing mold. This mechanism belongs to the positioning execution subsystem in the packaging machinery and is one of the key components of the automated packaging production line for paper containers.

The fork mechanism needs to be manually adjusted and replaced, which is cumbersome and prone to errors, reducing production efficiency and consistency. Utility Model Content

The two ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 501 are externally connected to the limiting rod 504 through a threaded connection. The two limiting rods 504 are symmetrical to each other. A sliding hole is provided on the fixing frame 4. One end of the two limiting rods 504 slides in the sliding hole, and a scale 503 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing frame 4. The adaptive limit module 5 also includes two sliding mounting seats 507. The two sliding mounting seats 507 are symmetrical to each other, and the two sliding mounting seats 507 are fixedly connected to the top of the corresponding sliding frame 7, and a sliding groove is provided on the two sliding mounting seats 507. A sliding mounting plate 508 is slidably connected in the two sliding grooves. The top of the two sliding mounting plates 508 is fixedly connected to the rotating cylinder 11. The output ends of the two rotating cylinders 11 are fixedly connected to the lever member 12. The tops of the two sliding mounting plates 508 away from each other are fixedly connected to the blocking plate 506. One side of the two sliding mounting seats 507 is fixedly connected to two fixed rods 509, and the two sliding mounting seats 507 are fixedly connected to the two fixed rods 509. The mounting plates 508 all slide on the outside of the corresponding fixed rods 509, and the outside of multiple fixed rods 509 is surrounded by buffer springs 510. One end of the multiple buffer springs 510 is fixedly connected to one side of the corresponding sliding mounting seat 507, and the other end is fixedly connected to the corresponding sliding mounting plate 508. A fixing hole is opened on the fixing frame 4, and the sliding rod 502 is fixedly connected in the fixing hole. The two limiting rods 504 all slide on the outside of the sliding rod 502, and one end of the bidirectional threaded rod 501 is fixedly connected to the rotating wheel 505.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 In a preferred embodiment, a transmission rack 8 is fixedly connected to the adjacent side of the two sliding frames 7, and a drive motor 9 is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 3. The output end of the drive motor 9 is fixedly connected to a transmission gear 10. The teeth of the two transmission racks 8 can engage with the transmission gear 10, and a telescopic cylinder 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting base 1.

[0023] Working principle: When the packaging bags containing paper cups are conveyed to the device, the fork stroke is adjusted according to the specifications of the current batch of packaging bags, and the rotating wheel 505 is rotated to drive the bidirectional threaded rod 501 to rotate. The limiting rods 504 on both sides are driven by the threads to move in opposite directions along the fixed rod 509. The fork stroke corresponding to the current position of the limiting rod 504 is judged by observing the scale 503. After the adjustment is completed, the telescopic cylinder 2 is started to push the mounting base 1 to drive the mechanism to the working station. The rotating cylinders 11 on both sides are started synchronously to drive the shift rod 12 to rotate ninety degrees. At the same time, the drive motor 9 is started to rotate the transmission gear 10. Through the mutual engagement of the transmission gear 10 and the transmission rack 8, the transmission gear 10 rotates and engages with the two transmission racks. The sliding frames 7 move in opposite directions, and the shifting rod 12 moves accordingly. When the blocking plates 506 on both sides come into contact with the corresponding limiting rods 504, the sliding mounting plate 508 and the rotating cylinder 11 stop moving under the restriction of the blocking plates 506 and the limiting rods 504. At this time, the shifting rod 12 reaches the optimal position to open the bag opening of the packaging bag and flatten the bag opening, which can be suitable for packaging bags of different specifications and sizes, and improve the accuracy and use effect of the shift fork assembly. The sliding mounting seat 507 compresses the buffer spring 510 and continues to move a certain distance, which can avoid the stroke error caused by power devices such as motors and cylinders, and prevent the shifting rod 12 from being excessively displaced to cause damage to the packaging bag or insufficiently displaced to make the bag opening unable to be flattened, reducing the heat sealing effect.

The replacements described may be partial structures, devices, or method steps, or they may be complete technical solutions. Any equivalent replacements or modifications based on the technical solution and the concept of the present invention shall be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
