[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] The utility model provides Figure 1-4 The flanging device for conveying corrugated cardboard boxes shown in the figure includes a feeding tube 200, a fixing part 300 and a support ring 400. Both sides of the feeding tube 200 are provided with a column 100. The feeding tube 200 can move axially along the column 100. The fixing part 300 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the column 100. The fixing part 300 is used to connect and fix the column 100 on the conveying equipment. The support ring 400 is located below the feeding tube 200, and the support ring 400 is fixed to the outer wall of the column 100. The support ring 400 is used to limit the feeding tube 200 in the lowered position of the column 100. The column 100 is installed on the conveying equipment (conveyor belt frame) of the corrugated cardboard box through the fixing part 300. In the initial state, the feeding tube 200 has a certain height difference from the surface of the conveying equipment. The corrugated cardboard box is conveyed During the transportation on the conveying equipment, the top of the side wall of the corrugated cardboard box contacts the stripping tube 200. The conveyor belt provides the power to move the corrugated cardboard box forward and the stripping tube 200 blocks the corrugated cardboard box, so that the corrugated cardboard box pushes the stripping tube 200 to move upward along the column 100 during the movement. At the same time, the corrugated cardboard box rotates, so that the side of the corrugated cardboard box in contact with the stripping tube 200 rotates to the upward direction. In this way, the stripping tube 200 no longer blocks the movement of the corrugated cardboard box, so that the corrugated cardboard box continues to move and separates from the stripping tube 200, thereby completing the flanging action of the corrugated cardboard box on the conveying equipment. The flanging device in this embodiment does not require any electrical equipment during use, has a simple structure, low manufacturing cost, and convenient later maintenance, thereby better meeting the use requirements.

[0024] The outer wall of the column 100 is provided with a plurality of limit slots 101, and the inner side of the connecting ring 201 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the column 100. The inner side of the connecting ring 201 is movably connected to the outer wall of the column 100. The support of the connecting shaft 204 on the material discharging tube 200 not only enables the material discharging tube 200 to be positioned between the two columns 100, but also allows the material discharging tube 200 to rotate on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 204. In this way, the friction resistance between the material discharging tube 200 and the corrugated cardboard box is reduced, and the resistance of the material discharging tube 200 in the translational conveying process after the corrugated cardboard box is flanging is reduced; the outer wall of the column 100 is provided with a plurality of limit slots 101 at intervals, and the inner side of the connecting ring 201 is fixedly embedded with a plurality of bushings 202 at intervals. The inner side is movably connected with a rotatable ball 203, and the outer wall of the ball 203 is fitted with the inner side of the limiting groove 101. The ball 203 can be fixed to the inner side of the connecting ring 201 by the bushing 202, and the ball 203 can be rotated in the inner side of the connecting ring 201. In combination with the limit of the ball 203 by the inner side of the upper limit groove 101, the ball 203 rolls along the inner side of the limiting groove 101 during the up and down movement of the material dispensing tube 200. In this way, the friction resistance between the connecting ring 201 and the column 100 is reduced, making the friction resistance of the material dispensing tube 200 smaller during the up and down movement. In this way, the movement of the corrugated box to displace the material dispensing tube 200 and to cause it to turn over 90 degrees is smoother.

[0025] In some embodiments, the top of the support ring 400 is fixedly connected with a buffer pad 404, and the buffer pad 404 can be made of elastic rubber, which can buffer the connecting ring 201 when the connecting ring 201 drops to the top position of the support ring 400, avoiding the problem of damage easily caused by hard contact. The side wall of the support ring 400 is provided with a locking block 401, and the locking block 401 is rotatably connected with a mounting slot 402. A torsion spring 403 is provided between the mounting slot 402 and the locking block 401. A plurality of locking slots 102 are spaced apart from each other on the outer wall of the column 100 from top to bottom. The bottom of the mounting slot 402 facing the column 100 is provided with a tooth portion protruding outward, and the tooth portion matches the locking slot 102. The top of the outer wall of the locking block 401 facing outward is also protruding outward, which is convenient for the user to press. By manually pressing The top of the locking block 401 causes the locking block 401 to rotate, thereby causing the tooth portion at the bottom of the locking block 401 to be pulled out of the locking groove 102, so that the locking state between the support ring 400 and the column 100 can be released, so that the support ring 400 can be adjusted up and down on the outer wall of the column 100. After the adjustment is completed, just release the pressing action, and the locking block 401 can be reset by the rotation of the torsion spring 403, so that the tooth portion at the bottom of the locking block 401 is inserted into the locking groove 102 at the corresponding position of the outer wall of the column 100, thereby locking the position between the support ring 400 and the column 100. In this way, the support position of the connecting ring 201 can be adjusted, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the initial height position of the feeding tube 200, so as to adapt to the flanging needs of corrugated cardboard boxes of different heights and improve the adaptability of the device.

[0026] In addition, the top of the fixing member 300 is in a right-angle bend shape, the bottom of the fixing member 300 is in an inclined plate shape, and a sinking hole is provided at the bottom of the fixing member 300. The right-angle bend shape at the top of the fixing member 300 is used to fix the column 100, and the inclined plate shape and the sinking hole at the bottom of the fixing member 300 are used to install the fixing member 300 on the conveying equipment frame through bolts and nuts. The column 100 is in an inclined state, so that the contact between the feeding tube 200 and the corrugated cardboard box for flanging is smoother.

[0027] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
