[0019] In order to make the technical means, creative features, purposes and effects achieved by the present application easy to understand, the present application will be further described below in combination with specific drawings.

[0020] Referring to Figures 1-4As shown, a continuous coding device for the surface of a carton includes a conveying mechanism 1 for conveying the carton and at least two coding machines 2 arranged on the conveying mechanism 1. The conveying mechanism 1 can be a conveyor belt. The conveying mechanism 1 is driven by a motor and the speed of the conveying mechanism 1 can be controlled by the motor. In use, the carton is continuously conveyed on the conveying mechanism 1, and then moves from upstream to downstream of the conveying mechanism 1 and passes through the first coding machine 2 arranged upstream of the conveying mechanism 1. The coding machine 2 starts to code the surface of the carton. The coding machine 2 can be an inkjet coding machine 2, a laser coding machine 2, a thermal transfer coding machine 2, etc. This is prior art and will not be described in detail here. When the carton after coding continues to move downstream of the conveyor belt, the detection mechanism 3 arranged on the conveyor belt and located downstream of the coding machine 2 detects whether the coding on the surface of the carton is qualified. The detection mechanism 3 can be an image acquisition device, such as a CCD camera, a smart vision detection device, etc. The image acquisition device can quickly analyze and judge the collected image through a smart algorithm. This technology is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0021] When the detection mechanism 3 detects that the coding on the surface of the carton is not qualified, the detection mechanism 3 transmits a signal to the controller 4 electrically connected thereto. After receiving the signal transmitted by the detection mechanism 3, the controller 4 controls the upstream coding machine 2 to be closed for maintenance, and controls the downstream coding machine 2 to be opened to replace the upstream coding machine 2 to continue working. At this time, the carton on the conveying mechanism 1 is continuously coded. The quality of the coding on the carton is guaranteed, and the production line is not interrupted due to the problem of the coding machine 2. The efficiency of production is improved.

[0022] Referring to Figures 1-3 Further, as shown, to test the coding quality of the last coding machine 2 downstream, at least two detection mechanisms 3 are arranged downstream of the coding machines 2 for detecting whether the coding after the corresponding coding machine 2 is qualified. When the upstream coding machine 2 stops, it can be immediately repaired. When the last coding machine 2 downstream detects that the coding on the carton is not qualified, the controller 4 receives the signal from the detection mechanism 3, and then controls the coding machine 2 to be closed, and controls the upstream coding machine 2 that has been repaired to work. It is best to use the adjacent upstream coding machine 2, which can reduce the number of unqualified cartons produced.

[0023] Referring to Figures 1-4As shown, further, in order to timely pick out the unqualified carton, a telescopic piece 5 is arranged between the detection mechanism 3 upstream of the conveying mechanism 1 and the code printer 2 downstream of the detection mechanism 3, which can be an electric telescopic rod, a hydraulic telescopic rod or the like. When the detection mechanism 3 upstream detects that the carton code is unqualified, the detection mechanism 3 transmits a signal to the controller 4, and the controller 4 controls the telescopic piece 5 to extend. The movable end of the telescopic piece 5 in the extension process contacts the carton and pushes the carton out of the conveying mechanism 1, so as to be rejected, avoiding mixing with the qualified cartons falling from the downstream of the conveying mechanism 1. Meanwhile, a downwardly inclined guide plate can be arranged on the conveying mechanism 1 opposite to the telescopic piece 5, so as to guide the rejected carton to a suitable position for storage.

[0024] Referring to Figures 1-4 As shown, further, in order to accurately code the carton, a detection sensor 6 is arranged on the code printer 2, which can be a photoelectric sensor. When the carton passes through the code printer 2, the light emitted by the light-emitting element is blocked by the carton, and the light intensity received by the receiving element changes, thereby detecting the arrival of the carton.

[0025] Referring to Figures 1-4 As shown, further, in order to facilitate the adjustment of the height of the code printer 2, the code printer 2 and the conveying mechanism 1 are connected through an electric telescopic rod 7, which is electrically connected with the controller 4. When coding, the code printer 2 is close to the surface of the carton. When the code printer 2 needs to be repaired, the height of the code printer 2 needs to be raised. At this time, the controller 4 controls the electric telescopic rod 7 to a suitable height. When in use, the controller 4 controls the electric telescopic rod 7 to drive the code printer 2 to a suitable position.

[0026] Referring to Figures 1-4 As shown, further, it also includes a warning piece 8, which can be a sound alarm or a light warning device. The warning piece 8 is electrically connected with the controller 4. When at least two detection mechanisms 3 detect that the carton code is unqualified, the controller 4 receives the detection signal from the detection mechanism 3 and transmits the signal to the warning piece 8. The controller 4 controls the warning piece 8 to issue a warning signal, informing the staff that the production line is stalled at this time, and notifying the staff to handle it in time.

[0027] The basic principle and main features of the present application and the advantages of the present application are shown and described above. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present application is not limited by the above examples, and the above examples and descriptions in the specification are only to illustrate the principles of the present application. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, various changes and improvements can be made to the present application, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present application. The scope of protection of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
