[0051] In actual operation, when this device is used, when surface coding is performed on cartons, the cartons are first placed on the conveyor belt set up on the carton inkjet printer for transportation. First, the motor 512 is started, so that the motor 512 drives the worm 516 to rotate. At this time, the worm 516 can drive the two worm wheels 511 to rotate in the same direction at the original position. At the same time, the worm wheel 511 drives the lead screw 517 to rotate. First, the moving seat 5101 can move on the surface of the lead screw 517. When the moving seat 5101 moves, the first T-block 519 can be driven to slide in the first T-slot 515. At the same time, the moving seat 5101 can also drive the square plate 5102 to move, and the square plate 5102 drives the push plate 5103 to move, so that the cartons on the conveyor belt set up on the carton inkjet printer can be restricted to be transported in a straight line, so as to avoid the cartons from being offset during the transportation process, which will affect the coding of the inkjet printer 2 in the later stage.
[0052] When the connecting seat 528 is pushed, the second T-shaped block 521 slides in the second T-shaped slot 522. At the same time, the connecting seat 528 drives the inclined plate 527 to move, and the inclined plate 527 drives the fixed plate 526. The fixed plate 526 drives the inserting block 525 to be inserted into the slot 524. The long seat 529 and the inserting block 525 are screwed together by bolts 523. The triangular stable relationship can be used to ensure that when the pushing plate 5103 is pushed to limit the carton, the pushing plate 5103 will not break when it is resisted by a large number of cartons.
[0053] When the conveyor belt set up on the carton inkjet printer transports the coded cartons to the guide plate 6 for movement, the guide materials passing through the guide plate 6 are piled on the base 4. At this time, the threaded rods 32 at both ends can be driven to rotate under the start of the dual-axis motor 34, and the front and rear moving blocks 38 move to the opposite side on the surface of the two threaded rods 32. The moving plate 31 brought by the moving block 38 moves in the long groove 35. At the same time, the moving plate 31 drives the cross plate 37 to move. With the cooperation of the two cross plates 37 and the support plate 36, the cartons will not be loosely placed and collapse when a large number of cartons are stacked.
