[0019] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The utility model provides a box 50 automatic coding stabilizing device, including baffle 10, cylinder 20, first sensor 30 and second sensor 11, baffle 10 sets up in the box 50 mobile path, with stop baffle 10, make the box 50 stop moving in the movement, make the box 50 keep stable in the coding process, reduce coding error, improve the accurate rate of scanning code. The box 50 is transported through transmission roller 40, baffle 10 is arranged between adjacent two transmission roller 40, cylinder 20 is arranged below transmission roller 40, the piston end of cylinder 20 is connected baffle 10, and cylinder 20 is used to drive baffle 10 to move up and down;Along the direction of box 50 movement, first sensor 30, baffle 10 are sequentially arranged, and first sensor 30 is electrically connected with cylinder 20 to control the action of cylinder 20, when first sensor 30 senses that the box 50 is close to baffle 10, first sensor 30 controls cylinder 20 to stretch out, and baffle 10 is lifted and stopped in front of the box 50;Second sensor 11 is arranged on the side of baffle 10 towards first sensor 30, and second sensor 11 is electrically connected with the driving equipment of transmission roller 40 to control the start and stop of transmission roller 40, when second sensor 11 detects that the box 50 moves to contact baffle 10, second sensor 11 controls transmission roller 40 to stop, and the box 50 stops moving, which facilitates the coding of the coding device, the box 50 is in a stationary state when coding, and the coding device codes the box 50 based on the position of baffle 10, which can effectively improve the coding effect and reduce the coding position error, thereby improving the subsequent scanning code accuracy.

[0020] Transmission roller 40 below is provided with support 21, and cylinder 20 is fixedly arranged on support 21. In the embodiment, the cylinder 20 is a linear cylinder 20, the piston end of which is connected to the baffle 10 vertically upward to drive the baffle 10 to reciprocate in the vertical direction. The baffle 10 is a straight plate, parallel to the transmission roller 40, and a certain distance is kept between the baffle 10 and the adjacent transmission roller 40 on both sides of the baffle 10 to avoid friction between the baffle 10 and the transmission roller 40 during lifting.

[0021] Preferably, guide holes are formed on the bracket 21, and two guide holes are symmetrically arranged on the left and right of the cylinder 20. The bottom of the baffle 10 is fixedly provided with two guide rods 12, and the two guide rods 12 are respectively inserted into the two guide holes. When the baffle 10 is lifted, the two guide rods 12 are lifted together with the baffle 10, and move up and down in the guide holes, so as to ensure the lifting stability of the baffle 10 and avoid shaking during movement.

[0022] The cylinder 20 is provided with an upper limit switch 22 and a lower limit switch 23, and the upper limit switch 22 and the lower limit switch 23 are electrically connected with the cylinder 20. The upper limit switch 22 is arranged above the lower limit switch 23, and the upper limit switch 22 is used to control the extension stroke of the cylinder 20, and the lower limit switch 23 is used to control the retraction stroke of the cylinder 20. Specifically, the cylinder 20 drives the baffle 10 to move upward in the extension stroke, and when the piston of the cylinder 20 moves to the position of the upper limit switch 22, the cylinder 20 stops moving. At this time, the baffle 10 is completely located above the transmission roller 40, and the baffle 10 can stop the movement of the box body 50. The cylinder 20 drives the baffle 10 to move downward in the retraction stroke, and when the piston of the cylinder 20 moves to the position of the lower limit switch 23, the cylinder 20 stops moving. At this time, the baffle 10 is completely located below the transmission roller 40, and the baffle 10 does not affect the dependent transportation.

[0023] The transmission roller 40 can be driven to rotate to drive the box body 50 located thereon to move along the transmission roller 40, so as to realize the transportation of the box body 50. The transmission roller 40 is rotatably arranged at the two ends of the rack. The first sensor 30 is fixedly arranged on the rack, and the first sensor 30 and the baffle 10 are sequentially arranged along the transportation direction of the box body 50. The first sensor 30 is located in front of the baffle 10, and the two first sensors 30 are oppositely arranged at the two ends of the transmission roller 40, so as to detect the approach of the box body 50. The first sensor 30 is electrically connected with the cylinder 20, and is used to control the movement of the cylinder 20. In the embodiment, the first sensor 30 is a photoelectric switch. The transmission roller 40 transports the box body 50, and after the box body 50 approaches the first sensor 30, the first sensor 30 drives the cylinder 20 to extend, and the baffle 10 is lifted to stop in front of the box body 50.

[0024] The second sensor 11 is arranged on the baffle 10, and the second sensor 11 is electrically connected with the driving device of the transmission roller 40, so as to control the start and stop of the transmission roller 40. When the second sensor 11 detects that the box body 50 moves to contact the baffle 10, the transmission roller 40 stops running, the box body 50 stops moving, and the position is determined. The coding device codes the box body 50, so as to improve the coding stability.

[0025] Preferably, the baffle 10 is provided with two second sensors 11, spaced apart along the axis of the drive roller 40. The two second sensors 11 are connected in series and electrically connected to the drive device of the drive roller 40. This ensures that the drive roller 40 stops moving only when the outer wall of the box 50 contacts both second sensors 11 simultaneously. This ensures that when the box 50 stops transporting, the box 50 is in contact with the baffle 10. This ensures that each box 50 to be coded is positioned based on the baffle 10, reducing the positional error of the engineering code 51 printed on different boxes 50 and improving the accuracy of subsequent code scanning. In this embodiment, the second sensors 11 are proximity switches. After the baffle 10 is raised, the box 50 continues to move forward under the transport of the drive roller 40 until it contacts the baffle 10. Only when the outer wall of the box 50 contacts the baffle 10, i.e., when both second sensors 11 are triggered simultaneously, do the second sensors 11 control the drive roller 40 to stop, and the position of the box 50 is determined.

[0026] In actual production, the coding device is usually arranged above the transmission roller 40. In this application, the installation position of the cylinder 20 relative to the coding device should ensure that when the transmission roller 40 stops conveying and the box 50 is positioned based on the baffle 10, the coding device codes the box 50, and the engineering code 51 can be completely and effectively displayed on the outer wall of the box 50.

[0027] It should be noted that the attached Figure 1 Only a portion of the transmission rollers 40 are shown. Further transmission rollers 40 are located behind the baffle 10 for transporting the boxes 50. The number of transmission rollers 40 in the diagram does not represent the actual number of transmission rollers 40 installed. The diagram merely illustrates the installation position of the baffle 10 relative to the transmission rollers 40 and does not imply that the baffle 10 is installed at the end of the transmission roller 40 conveyor belt. The installation position of the baffle 10 should be determined based on the actual location of the coding device and the distribution of the production line.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are intended only to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art will appreciate that modifications may be made to the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or that some of the technical features may be replaced with equivalents; and such modifications or replacements do not deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention.
