Detailed Implementation

[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5This utility model provides an embodiment of a horizontal coding machine for connected cartons, including a base 1. A drive assembly for automatically feeding is mounted on the outside of the base 1. The base 1 supports and fixes the position of the drive assembly. The drive assembly includes a motor 2, which is mounted on the outside of the base 1, and the base 1 supports and fixes the position of the motor 2. A rotating shaft 3 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the motor 2. Starting the motor 2 causes the rotating shaft 3 to rotate. The other end of the rotating shaft 3 is fixedly connected to the outside of a disc 4, and the rotation of the rotating shaft 3 causes the disc 4 to rotate. The outside of the rotating shaft 3 is rotatably connected to the inside of the base 1, and the base 1 supports and fixes the position of the rotating shaft 3.

[0034] The drive assembly is externally fixed to a disk 4, which serves to fix the drive assembly's position. A connecting rod 5 is rotatably connected to the outside of disk 4; rotation of disk 4 drives the connecting rod 5 to rotate. A second disk 8 is rotatably connected to the other end of the connecting rod 5; rotation of the connecting rod 5 drives the second disk 8 to rotate as well, thus maintaining the lateral stability of the linkage rod 6 during structural operation. A rotating shaft 7 is rotatably connected internally to the base 1, providing support and fixing the position of the rotating shaft 7. The rotating shaft 7 is externally fixed to the outside of disk 8; rotation of disk 8 drives the rotating shaft 7, and the rotating shaft 7 maintains stability during the rotation of disk 8.

[0035] A linkage rod 6 is rotatably connected to the outside of the connecting rod 5. The rotation of the connecting rod 5 causes the linkage rod 6 to rotate around the center of the disc 4. Two stacking troughs 9 are fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, and the base 1 supports and fixes the position of the two stacking troughs 9. A push plate 10 is slidably connected to the bottom of the stacking trough 9, and the stacking trough 9 fixes the sliding position of the push plate 10. The bottom of the stacking trough 9 has a slot, so that when the push plate 10 passes through the slot, it can push one cardboard box at the top to the top of the conveyor belt 21. The push plate 10 is "L"-shaped, and the protrusion at the rear end allows only one cardboard box at the top to move at a time. Two fixing blocks 11 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the push plate 10, and the push plate 10 supports and fixes the position of the two fixing blocks 11.

[0036] The other end of the linkage rod 6 is rotatably connected to the adjacent side of the two fixed blocks 11. The rotation of the linkage rod 6 causes the two fixed blocks 11 to move back and forth, thereby causing the push plate 10 to move back and forth. Sliding columns 13 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of both material troughs 9, providing support and fixing the position of the sliding columns 13. Springs 14 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of both sliding columns 13, providing support and fixing the position of the springs 14. Two fixed columns 12 are fixedly connected to the outside of the push plate 10, providing support and fixing the position of the push plate 10. The other end of the spring 14 is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixed column 12, fixing the position of the other end of the spring 14.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 A conveyor belt 21 is mounted on the top of the base 1, and the base 1 supports and fixes the position of the conveyor belt 21. A support frame 22 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, and the base 1 supports and fixes the position of the support frame 22. A coding device 23 is mounted on the inner wall of the support frame 22, and the support frame 22 fixes the position of the coding device 23. The coding device 23 is existing technology.

[0038] Two limiting plates 15 are fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, providing support and fixing the position of the base 1. Rotating columns 16 are rotatably connected to the outside of each limiting plate 15, fixing the position of the limiting plates 15 relative to the rotating columns 16. Movable plates 17 are rotatably connected to the outside of each rotating column 16. The rotation of the movable plates 17 drives the rotation of the rotating columns 16. This rotatable connection reduces friction during operation and extends service life.

[0039] Both limiting plates 15 are externally connected to sliding columns 18, which support and fix the position of the sliding columns 18. Both movable plates 17 are externally fixedly connected to movable columns 19, which support and fix the position of the movable columns 19. Both movable columns 19 are internally fixedly connected to springs 20, which support and fix the position of the springs 20. The other end of each spring 20 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding column 18, which fixes the position of the other end of the spring 20.

[0040] Working principle: Start motor 2. The rotation of the drive end of motor 2 drives the rotating shaft 3 to rotate. The rotation of rotating shaft 3 drives the disc 4 to rotate. The rotation of disc 4 drives the connecting rod 5 to rotate. The rotation of connecting rod 5 drives the linkage rod 6 to rotate. The rotation of linkage rod 6 drives the two fixed blocks 11 to move back and forth. The change in position of the two fixed blocks 11 causes the position of push plate 10 to change. The protrusion at the rear end of push plate 10 can drive a piece of cardboard to move. When the cardboard contacts the top of conveyor belt 21, it will be conveyed further.

[0041] The movement of the push plate 10 causes the positions of the two fixed posts 12 to change. The change in the position of the two fixed posts 12 can cause the two springs 14 to stretch, accumulating elastic potential energy for the subsequent reset of the springs 14. The limitation of the two fixed posts 12 ensures that the push plate 10 is stable during movement, and when the push plate 10 moves backward, the reset of the two springs 14 causes the push plate 10 to reset precisely, so that each feeding can be accurate. The feeding equipment can make individual cardboard transfers, which can ensure accurate alignment of the cardboard during the transfer process, improve the accuracy of coding or packaging, reduce errors, and help avoid friction and stacking between cardboards, reduce the risk of damage, and ensure the integrity of the cardboard.

[0042] As the conveyor belt 21 transports the cardboard, the cardboard passes the bottom of the support frame 22 and receives coding from the coding machine 23. At this time, the cardboard that deviates from the expected coding position can push the moving plates 17 on both sides. One end of the moving plate 17 rotates, and the other end drives the moving column 19 to change position. The position change of the moving column 19 can compress the second spring 20. The second spring 20 absorbs the impact force of the deviated cardboard and slows down the cardboard for a period of time, so that the coding work can be carried out smoothly. The correction ensures the accuracy of coding, so that the information or barcode is correctly placed in the predetermined position, avoiding affecting product tracking and identification. This function can significantly reduce the scrap rate, reduce losses caused by coding errors, improve production efficiency, reduce downtime, and ensure the smooth production process.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
