[0030] The adjusting mechanism 2 is provided on the inner top of the counting mechanism 1 and is used to adjust the marking position of the carton;
[0031] The marking mechanism 3 is arranged on the outer side of the counting mechanism 1 and the top inner wall of the adjusting mechanism 2, and is used to mark the surface of the carton.
[0032] In order to conveniently count the cartons on the carton production line, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the counting mechanism 1 includes a transmission platform 101, a photoelectric sensor 103 is provided on the inner wall of one side of the transmission platform 101, and fixed frames 105 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the transmission platform 101. The cartons can be transported through the transmission platform 101 and the cartons can be counted through the photoelectric sensor 103.
[0033] In order to conveniently adjust the position of the nozzle 302, Figure 2-3 and Figure 5 As shown, the adjustment mechanism 2 includes an adjusting screw 201, which is arranged on the inner wall of one of the fixed frames 105. A first motor 202 is arranged on the top of the adjusting screw 201, and a mounting plate 204 is arranged on the outside of the adjusting screw 201. A fixed rack 207 is fixedly installed at one end of the top of the mounting plate 204. When the first motor 202 works, the adjusting screw 201 rotates, and the height of the mounting plate 204 can be adjusted.
[0034] In order to conveniently mark cartons when they reach a preset quantity threshold, such as Figure 2-3 and Figure 5 As shown, the marking mechanism 3 includes a movable seat 301, which is arranged on the inner wall of the mounting plate 204, and a nozzle 302 is inserted into the inner wall of the movable seat 301. A second motor 303 is provided on the top of one side of the movable seat 301, and a rotating gear 304 is fixedly sleeved on the output end of the second motor 303. The rotating gear 304 is engaged with the fixed rack 207. The second motor 303 can adjust the position of the nozzle 302 on the inner wall of the mounting plate 204 through the engagement between the rotating gear 304 and the fixed rack 207, and can perform water spray marking on cartons that reach a preset threshold.
[0035] In order to conveniently install and disassemble the photoelectric sensor 103, Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, a mounting hole 102 is opened on the outer wall of one side of the transmission platform 101, and the inner wall of the mounting hole 102 is movably connected to the photoelectric sensor 103. A fastening bolt 104 is provided between the photoelectric sensor 103 and the outer wall of the transmission platform 101 and is fixedly connected by the fastening bolt 104. The mounting hole 102 can be used to install and fix the photoelectric sensor 103. The fastening bolt 104 passes through the inner walls at both ends of the photoelectric sensor 103 and is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the transmission platform 101, so that the photoelectric sensor 103 can remain stable on the inner wall of the mounting hole 102.
[0036] In order to keep the mounting plate 204 stable during the movement, Figure 2 and Figure 4-5 As shown, the inner walls of the two fixing frames 105 are each provided with a mounting groove 106, the inner wall of one mounting groove 106 is rotatably connected to the adjusting screw rod 201, and the inner wall of the other mounting groove 106 is fixedly installed with a limiting rod 203, and the outer walls on both sides of the mounting plate 204 are fixedly installed with sliders 205, the inner wall of one slider 205 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the adjusting screw rod 201, and the inner wall of the other slider 205 is movably connected to the outer wall of the limiting rod 203, and the outer walls of the two sliders 205 are movably connected to the inner walls of the two mounting grooves 106 respectively. The mounting grooves 106 and the limiting rods 203 can limit the movement of the two sliders 205, so that the mounting plate 204 remains stable during the movement.
[0037] In order to keep the movable seat 301 stable during the horizontal movement, Figure 2-3 and Figure 5 As shown, a movable groove 206 is opened on the inner wall of the middle position of the mounting plate 204, and the inner wall of the movable groove 206 is movably connected to the outer wall of the movable seat 301. The movable groove 206 can limit the movement of the movable seat 301, and thus the horizontal position of the nozzle 302 can be conveniently adjusted.
[0038] In order to conveniently mark the cartons, Figure 2-5 As shown, a water tank 306 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of one side of the transmission platform 101, and a telescopic hose 305 fixedly connected to the top of the nozzle 302 is fixedly installed on the top inner wall of the water tank 306. The transmission platform 101 can install and fix the water tank 306, and the clean water inside the water tank 306 can be transported to the nozzle 302 through the telescopic hose 305, and then the cartons that reach the preset threshold can be sprayed with water through the nozzle 302.
[0039] When producing cartons, it is necessary to pack the corrugated cartons in a certain quantity at the outlet. The corrugated cartons can be transported through the transmission platform 101, and the photoelectric sensor 103 can count the cartons. When the count reaches a preset threshold, the controller allows the clean water inside the water tank 306 to be transported to the nozzle 302 through the telescopic hose 305, and then the carton that reaches the preset threshold can be sprayed with water through the nozzle 302. At the same time, the second motor 303 is used to rotate the rotating gear 304. Through the meshing action between the rotating gear 304 and the fixed rack 207, the movable seat 301 can move along the inner wall of the movable groove 206, and then the horizontal position of the nozzle 302 can be adjusted, so that the nozzle 302 can spray water on the carton according to its position on the inner side of the transmission platform 101. At the same time, the first motor 202 works to rotate the adjusting screw 201, which can drive the mounting plate 204 to move inside the two fixing frames 105, and then the height of the nozzle 302 can be adjusted, so that it can spray water to mark corrugated cardboard boxes of different heights. At the same time, the mounting groove 106 and the limiting rod 203 can limit the movement of the two sliders 205, so that the mounting plate 204 remains stable during the movement. At the same time, when the photoelectric sensor 103 is damaged, it can be separated from the outer wall of the transmission platform 101 by loosening the fastening bolt 104, so that the photoelectric sensor 103 can be separated from the inner wall of the mounting hole 102, which can facilitate the staff to install and replace the photoelectric sensor 103. This embodiment specifically solves the problem of inconvenience in counting and marking cartons in the prior art and the inability to conveniently package cartons.
