[0002] During the cardboard production process, printed sheets are typically stacked to a certain height and transported to the packaging area via a conveyor assembly for packaging. However, due to the intermittent operation of the conveyor assembly, the sheets may shift due to inertia during transportation, resulting in uneven stacking. This requires packers to manually align the sheets before packaging, increasing workload and reducing production efficiency. Furthermore, existing sheet alignment mechanisms are typically located in the center of the conveyor assembly and need to be removed after alignment. This process not only takes up additional space and time, but also makes the entire production process more cumbersome.

[0003] Therefore, there is still room for improvement in the cardboard page aligning mechanism in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0010] The utility model provides a cardboard page aligning mechanism, which has at least the following beneficial effects: the aligning component is located at the initial end of the cardboard page aligning stroke, and is arranged on one side of the conveying component along the conveying direction, which helps to optimize space utilization and provide a more spacious conveying channel for the cardboard pages; the baffle component is arranged on the support frame, and is located above the conveying component. The baffle assembly includes a first cylinder and a baffle, and the first cylinder drives the baffle to rise and fall, so that the baffle rises and withdraws from the conveying component after aligning the cardboard pages, preventing the baffle from obstructing the cardboard pages from being continued to be conveyed by the conveying component to other downstream workstations; this simplifies the operating process, makes the production process smoother, and saves time; the baffle includes a positioning surface facing the aligning component, and the positioning surface is used to position the book page; the aligning component is used to align the cardboard page to the positioning surface. This design makes the edge of the cardboard page aligned with the positioning surface of the baffle.

[0011] The design of the aligning assembly optimizes space utilization and provides a more spacious conveying channel for cardboard pages. At the same time, the lifting function of the baffle assembly simplifies the operating process, making the production process smoother and saving time.

[0012] Furthermore, the aligning assembly includes a driving assembly and an aligning member, wherein the driving assembly drives the aligning member to rotate to align the cardboard pages. This rotational motion provides an efficient power transmission method.

[0014] Furthermore, the driving component is a driving motor, which directly outputs rotational kinetic energy to the aligning member, eliminating the intermediate transmission link, thereby improving the efficiency of energy conversion.

[0015] Furthermore, the cardboard sheet alignment mechanism further includes a cylinder shaft mounted on the first cylinder, which drives the cylinder shaft upward and downward. The baffle assembly further includes a first connecting rod fixedly mounted on the cylinder shaft; the baffle is detachably mounted on the first connecting rod. This enables the baffle assembly to adapt to the positioning requirements of cardboard sheets of various sizes, enhancing its versatility and flexibility.

[0016] Furthermore, the aligning member includes a second connecting rod and an aligning plate. The second connecting rod has a notch that matches the aligning plate. The aligning plate is fixed to the notch, and the second connecting rod drives the aligning plate to rotate. The second connecting rod and the aligning plate cooperate to form a simple and effective aligning assembly.

[0017] Furthermore, there are two aligning assemblies, two support frames, and two baffle assemblies. The two aligning assemblies are located on either side of the conveyor assembly, and the two baffle assemblies are located on the two support frames, with one baffle assembly located on either side of the other.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions.

[0030] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a cardboard page aligning mechanism includes an aligning component 1, a support frame 2, a baffle component 3 and a conveying component 4;

[0031] The aligning component 1 is located at the initial end of the cardboard sheet aligning stroke and is arranged on one side of the conveying component 4 along the conveying direction, which helps to optimize space utilization and provide a more spacious conveying channel for the cardboard sheets;

[0032] The baffle assembly 3 is disposed on the support frame 2 and is located above the conveying assembly 4. The baffle assembly 3 includes a first cylinder 31 and a baffle 32. The first cylinder 31 drives the baffle 32 to rise and fall, so that the baffle 32 rises and withdraws from the conveying assembly 4 after aligning the cardboard pages, preventing the baffle 32 from obstructing the cardboard pages from being further conveyed by the conveying assembly 4 to other downstream workstations. The baffle 32 includes a positioning surface 321 facing the aligning assembly 1, and the positioning surface 321 is used to position the book pages.

[0033] The aligning assembly 1 is used to align the cardboard page to the positioning surface 321. This design allows the edge of the cardboard page to be aligned with the positioning surface 321 of the baffle 32.

[0034] The conveying component 4 specifically adopts a flag pushing component driven by a chain mechanism, which pushes the cardboard page to between the aligning component 1 and the baffle component 3 so that the aligning component 1 can align the cardboard page to the positioning surface 321 of the baffle 32.

[0035] The conveying assembly 4 can also be a conveyor belt conveying assembly or a belt conveying assembly.

[0036] The aligning assembly 1 includes a driving assembly 11 and an aligning member 12. The driving assembly 11 drives the aligning member 12 to rotate. This rotational motion provides an effective power transmission method for driving the aligning member 12 to align the cardboard pages.

[0037] This embodiment provides two specific implementation schemes of the drive assembly 11. In the first specific implementation scheme,

[0038] The driving assembly 11 includes a second cylinder 111, a rack 112 and a gear 113. The second cylinder 111 drives the rack 112 to perform linear motion, and the rack 112 drives the gear 113 to rotate. This design realizes an effective conversion from linear motion to rotational motion. The engagement of the rack 112 and the gear 113 can provide efficient power transmission. This transmission method has less force loss and high transmission effect and transmission accuracy. The gear 113 is fixedly connected to the aligning member 12, and the gear 113 drives the aligning member 12 to rotate. This design ensures efficient motion transmission from the second cylinder 111 to the aligning member 12. Compared with electric drive systems, pneumatic systems are usually more energy-efficient, relatively simple in structure, easy to maintain and overhaul, and reduce the maintenance cost of long-term operation.

[0039] In a second specific embodiment,

[0040] The driving assembly 11 is a driving motor, which directly outputs rotational kinetic energy to the aligning member 12, eliminating the intermediate transmission link, thereby improving the efficiency of energy conversion.

[0041] The cardboard page aligning mechanism also includes a cylinder shaft 311, which is arranged on the first cylinder 31. The first cylinder 31 drives the cylinder shaft 311 to rise and fall. The baffle assembly 3 also includes a first connecting rod 33, which is fixedly mounted on the cylinder shaft 311; the baffle 32 is detachably mounted on the first connecting rod 33, which enables the baffle assembly 3 to adapt to the positioning requirements of cardboard pages of various sizes, thereby enhancing the versatility and flexibility of the baffle assembly 3.

[0042] The aligning member 12 includes a second connecting rod 121 and an aligning plate 122. The second connecting rod 121 is provided with a notch 123 adapted to the aligning plate 122. The aligning plate 122 is fixed to the notch 123. The second connecting rod 121 drives the aligning plate 122 to rotate. The cooperation of the second connecting rod 121 and the aligning plate 122 forms a simple and effective aligning assembly 1.

[0043] The number of the slots 123 is one or more, and one of the slots 123 corresponds to the installation of one alignment plate 122. The number of the alignment plates 122 can be less than or equal to the number of the slots 123. Such a design allows for the flexible determination of the number of the alignment plates 122 and the slots 123 according to the actual cardboard page size and alignment requirements, thereby enhancing flexibility and adaptability.

[0044] There are two of the aligning components 1, the supporting frame 2 and the baffle components 3. The two aligning components 1 are respectively arranged on both sides of the conveying component 4, and the two baffle components 3 are respectively arranged on the two supporting frames 2. One of the baffle components 3 is located on one side of the other baffle component 3. This design enables bilateral synchronous cardboard page positioning operations to be achieved, improves the efficiency and symmetry of the cardboard page positioning process, and thus ensures the neatness and consistency of the cardboard page stacking.

[0045] The support frame 2 includes two support legs 21 and a slide rail 22. The slide rail 22 extends along the conveying direction and is fixed between the two support legs 21. The slide rail 22 is used to load the first cylinder 31. This structure provides a stable support platform for loading the first cylinder 31.

[0046] The cardboard page aligning mechanism also includes a slider 5, which is lockably connected to the slide rail 22 for sliding. The first cylinder 31 is arranged on the slider 5, so that when the slider 5 moves along the slide rail 22, the distance between the baffle 32 on the first cylinder 31 and the aligning assembly 1 can be changed, so as to adapt to cardboard pages of different lengths for positioning and aligning, thereby improving the adaptability and flexibility of the baffle assembly 3.

[0047] The cardboard page aligning mechanism also includes a locking pin 511, and the slider 5 is provided with a locking hole 51, the locking hole 51 leads to the slide rail 22, and the locking pin 511 is threadedly connected to the locking hole 51, and the tail of the locking pin 511 presses against the slide rail 22, and the tail of the locking pin 511 presses against the slider 5 to keep the slider 5 fixed. When the position of the slider 5 needs to be adjusted, the locking pin 511 is loosened to make the tail of the locking pin 511 leave the slider 5, and the slider 5 can be slid to adjust the position; after adjusting to the new position, the locking pin 511 is tightened again to make its tail press against the slide rail 22, and the slider 5 can be locked again. By providing the locking hole 51 and the locking pin 511, the slider 5 can be locked at any position of the sliding stroke with a simple structure, thereby improving the convenience and flexibility of the 32 position adjustment.
