[0025] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, when the carton packaging box conveyed on the belt conveyor 22 comes between the correction plates 23, the cylinder 4 starts to drive the piston rod 3 to extend, so that the angle of the push arm 7 at the bottom of the turntable 2 is relatively flipped, and the push arm 7 rotates along the hinge point with the fixed rod 8. Under the push of the connecting rod 9, the two groups of movable seats 10 move relatively horizontally, and the two groups of correction plates 23 position and correct the cartons from both sides, thereby twisting the manually swung cartons to the correct position, and driving the cartons to the center position of the belt conveyor 22, which is convenient for subsequent machine sealing.
