[0032] The directional terms used in the following description refer to the directions shown in the figures and are not intended to limit the specific structure of the defoaming device and packaging box production line of this utility model. In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0033] To better understand this utility model, the following is in conjunction with... Figures 1 to 5The defoaming device and packaging box production line of this utility model are described in detail below.

[0034] Please see Figures 1 to 3 According to an embodiment of the present invention, a defoaming device 100 is provided for removing air bubbles from the baffle of a packaging box 200. The defoaming device 100 includes a support platform 10, a conveying mechanism 20, and a defoaming mechanism 30. The support platform 10 is configured to support the packaging box 200. The conveying mechanism 20 is disposed on the support platform 10, and at least a portion of the conveying mechanism 20 has a degree of freedom of movement in a first direction X. The conveying mechanism 20 can abut against the packaging box 200 and drive the packaging box 200 to move along the first direction X. The defoaming mechanism 30 is disposed on one side of the conveying mechanism 20 in the first direction X. The defoaming mechanism 30 includes an inner support block 31 and a squeezing component 32. The squeezing component 32 has a degree of freedom of movement in a second direction Y and a third direction Z. The inner support block 31 is configured to support the inner surface of the baffle of the packaging box 200. The squeezing component 32 and the inner support block 31 squeeze and cooperate to squeeze out the air bubbles at the baffle of the packaging box 200.

[0035] In order to improve the adhesion between the baffle at the opening of the packaging box 200 and the box body itself, and to avoid the reduced adhesion caused by air bubbles forming between the baffle and the box body after bonding, this embodiment uses a defoaming device 100 to achieve automated defoaming of the packaging box 200.

[0036] Optionally, a defoaming device 100 is installed on the main water line 300 of the conveying packaging box 200. The packaging box 200 on the main water line 300 needs to be transferred to the support platform 10 of the defoaming device 100. The conveying mechanism 20 therein drives the packaging box 200 on the support platform 10 to move in the first direction X, and moves the packaging box 200 to the defoaming mechanism 30 for the defoaming process.

[0037] When the opening of the packaging box 200 enters the defoaming mechanism 30, the inner support block 31 in the defoaming mechanism 30 needs to be filled into the opening so that the inner support block 31 can abut against the inner surface of the baffle at the opening. Then, using the extrusion component 32's degrees of freedom of movement in the second direction Y and the third direction Z, the outer wall of the opening of the packaging box 200 is extruded, so that the inner support block 31 and the outer extrusion component 32 jointly extrude the opening position, thereby squeezing out the air bubbles between the baffle and the box body, completing the defoaming process of the packaging box 200.

[0038] Optionally, the extrusion component 32 in this embodiment can move in the second direction Y and the third direction Z, that is, it can cooperate with the inner support block 31 to extrude the box opening in the second direction Y and the third direction Z, so as to better adapt to the multi-sided extrusion requirements of the box opening and complete the multi-sided debubbling process. The second direction Y can be the width direction and the third direction Z can be the vertical direction.

[0039] Optionally, this application does not impose special limitations on the specific structure of the conveying mechanism 20, as long as it has a degree of freedom of movement in the first direction X. Similarly, the specific structure of the extrusion assembly 32 is not specially limited, as long as it also has a certain degree of freedom of movement and forms internal and external extrusion with the inner support block 31.

[0040] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the size of the inner support block 31 needs to be matched with the opening of the packaging box 200 so that the inner support block 31 can be just accommodated in the opening so that the inner support block 31 abuts against the inner wall of the opening. This is so that it can work with the external extrusion component 32 to extrude the outer wall of the opening and squeeze out the air bubbles at the opening. This application does not impose any special limitations on the specific structure of the inner support block 31, as long as it can match the actual size of the opening.

[0041] This utility model embodiment provides a defoaming device 100. By placing a packaging box 200 on a support platform 10 and using a conveying mechanism 20 to move the packaging box 200 in the first direction X, the packaging box 200 is conveyed to a defoaming mechanism 30. Then, the inner support block 31 and the extrusion component 32 in the defoaming mechanism 30 work together to extrude the extrusion component 32 in the second direction Y and the third direction Z to extrude the baffle positions of the packaging box 200. Under the joint extrusion action of the extrusion component 32 and the inner support block 31, the defoaming process of the baffles at multiple angle positions of the packaging box 200 is completed, realizing the automated defoaming process of the baffle positions of the packaging box 200, improving the efficiency of defoaming the packaging box 200, saving manual labor, and thus having a higher automated defoaming capability.

[0042] As an optional embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The extrusion assembly 32 includes a first extruder 32a and a pair of second extruders 32b. The pair of second extruders 32b are arranged opposite each other in the second direction Y, and each of them has at least a degree of freedom to move toward each other in the second direction Y. At least a portion of the first extruder 32a has a degree of freedom to move in the third direction Z.

[0043] Optionally, in this embodiment, the extrusion assembly 32 is configured as a first extrusion member 32a and a pair of second extrusion members 32b. The first extrusion member 32a is used to form an extrusion fit with the inner support block 31 by utilizing the third degree of freedom of movement of the first extrusion member 32a in the Z direction, thereby extruding the baffle at the bottom wall of the box opening.

[0044] At the same time, the paired second extrusion members 32b are arranged opposite each other in the second direction Y and have a degree of freedom of movement. When the two second extrusion members 32b move towards each other in the second direction Y, they can simultaneously extrude the baffles at the two side walls of the box opening to expel the air bubbles at the side wall positions.

[0045] This utility model provides a defoaming device 100. By setting the extrusion assembly 32 to a structure of a first extruder 32a and a pair of second extruders 32b, it can simultaneously extrude and defoam the bottom wall and two side walls of the packaging box 200, satisfying the need for more defoaming at the box opening, increasing the range and angle of defoaming at the box opening, and improving the defoaming efficiency.

[0046] As an optional embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 At least one of the first extrusion member 32a and the second extrusion member 32b includes a driving part 1 and a telescopic part 2, the telescopic part 2 being movably connected to the driving part 1, and the driving part 1 being able to drive the telescopic part 2 to move.

[0047] Optionally, in this embodiment, the first extrusion member 32a and the second extrusion member 32b can be configured as a drive part 1 and a telescopic part 2. Under the power provided by the drive part 1, the telescopic part 2 of the first extrusion member 32a can reciprocate in the third direction Z, and the telescopic part 2 of the second extrusion member 32b can reciprocate in the second direction Y, until it abuts against the outer wall of the box opening of the packaging box 200 and forms an extrusion.

[0048] Optionally, the first extrusion member 32a and the second extrusion member 32b can be in the form of a telescopic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder, etc., using their own telescopic properties to extrude or release the opening of the packaging box 200. This application does not impose any special limitations on the specific structure of the first extrusion member 32a and the second extrusion member 32b, and other existing structures can also be used to form a degree of freedom of movement and cooperate with the inner support block 31 to perform extrusion.

[0049] This utility model embodiment provides a defoaming device 100. By setting the first extrusion member 32a and the second extrusion member 32b as a drive part 1 and a telescopic part 2, the drive part 1 drives the telescopic part 2 to move, which facilitates the control and adjustment of the first extrusion member 32a and the second extrusion member 32b, and forms a better extrusion effect on the opening of the packaging box 200.

[0050] As an optional embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The conveying mechanism 20 includes a clamping member 21 and a moving member 22. The clamping member 21 is connected to the moving member 22. The moving member 22 has a degree of freedom of movement in the first direction X and can drive the clamping member 21 to move. The clamping member 21 is configured to clamp and fix the packaging box 200.

[0051] The main function of the conveying mechanism 20 in this embodiment is to move the packaging box 200 on the support platform 10 to the defoaming mechanism 30, thereby completing the defoaming process of the packaging box 200. Optionally, in this embodiment, the conveying mechanism 20 can be configured as a structure of clamping member 21 and moving member 22.

[0052] The main function of the clamping member 21 is to clamp the packaging box 200 on the support platform 10 to ensure that the packaging box 200 is fixed when moving; the main function of the moving member 22 is to provide the clamping member 21 with the degree of freedom of movement in the first direction X, so that after the clamping member 21 clamps and fixes the packaging box 200, it drives the whole to move in the first direction X.

[0053] During the reciprocating movement of the movable component 22 along the first direction X, the clamping component 21 continuously clamps the packaging box 200, pushing the packaging box 200 into the defoaming mechanism 30 for defoaming, and then pulling the packaging box 200 out of the defoaming mechanism 30, thus forming a reciprocating movement process in the first direction X. Optionally, the movable component 22 can be a telescopic cylinder structure, utilizing its own telescopic properties in the first direction X to form movement. This application does not impose special limitations on the specific structure of the movable component 22, as long as it can provide power to push the packaging box 200 to move.

[0054] This utility model embodiment provides a defoaming device 100. By setting the conveying mechanism 20 to a structure of clamping member 21 and moving member 22, the clamping member 21 can better fix the packaging box 200, ensuring the stability of the packaging box 200 when the moving member 22 reciprocates, providing a reliable guarantee for a stable and accurate defoaming process, and facilitating the movement control of the packaging box 200 on the support platform 10.

[0055] As an optional embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The clamping member 21 includes a pair of clamping parts 21a, which are arranged opposite each other in the second direction Y and can move toward or away from each other in the second direction Y.

[0056] When it is necessary to use the clamping member 21 to clamp and fix the packaging box 200, it can be clamped by two oppositely arranged clamping parts 21a in the clamping member 21. The two clamping parts 21a can come closer to each other or separate, thereby forming the steps of clamping and releasing the packaging box 200.

[0057] Optionally, the clamping part 21a can adopt a plate-like structure, thereby forming a more stable clamping of the packaging box 200. This application does not make any special limitation on the specific type of clamping part 21a, as long as the clamping or separation of the packaging box 200 can be completed by adjusting the distance between the two clamping parts 21a.

[0058] This utility model embodiment provides a defoaming device 100. By setting the clamping member 21 as two opposing clamping parts 21a, the clamping parts 21a directly clamp the packaging box 200. The clamping or releasing of the packaging box 200 is achieved by adjusting the distance between the two clamping parts 21a, thereby further improving the clamping stability and clamping accuracy of the packaging box 200, and facilitating the clamping control and adjustment of the packaging box 200.

[0059] As an optional embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 The defoaming device 100 also includes a transfer mechanism 40, which includes a support 41 and an adjusting member 42. The adjusting member 42 is movably connected to the support 41 and has a degree of freedom of movement in the second direction Y and the third direction Z. The adjusting member 42 is configured to grasp or release the packaging box 200.

[0060] Considering the need to transfer the packaging box 200 on the main water line 300 to the support platform 10 in the defoaming device 100 for defoaming, this embodiment further provides a transfer mechanism 40 to transfer the packaging box 200. The main function of the transfer mechanism 40 is to move the packaging box 200 to the support platform 10.

[0061] Optionally, the transfer mechanism 40 includes a support 41 and an adjuster 42. The support 41 provides a mounting position for the adjuster 42, which is movable relative to the support 41 in a second direction Y and a third direction Z, thereby using the adjuster 42 to grip the package 200 to transport it onto the support platform 10.

[0062] Optionally, a track extending along the second direction Y can be provided on the support member 41, so that the adjustment member 42 connected thereto can move along the track to facilitate alignment with the packaging box 200. Then, the adjustment member 42 can move up and down by utilizing its own ability to move in the third direction Z, thereby being able to grasp the packaging box 200. The adjustment member 42 can be in the form of a telescopic cylinder, which is not limited in this application.

[0063] When it is necessary to grasp the packaging box 200, the adjusting member 42 first moves horizontally relative to the support member 41 along the second direction Y. After the adjusting member 42 is aligned with the packaging box 200, the adjusting member 42 moves along the third direction Z, so as to grasp the packaging box 200 downwards. Then it is lifted upwards, and then the packaging box 200 is moved along the second direction Y to the corresponding position of the support platform 10. After that, the adjusting member 42 moves downwards again to place the packaging box 200 on the support platform 10, thus completing the process of transporting the packaging box 200.

[0066] Optionally, the adjusting member 42 in this embodiment further includes an adjusting part 42a and a suction cup part 42b. The adjusting part 42a mainly functions to move in the third direction Z, thereby driving the suction cup part 42b connected thereto to move up and down. The suction cup part 42b can make direct contact with the packaging box 200 to be transported.

[0067] Optionally, the suction cup part 42b can also be pneumatically controlled. When the suction cup part 42b needs to pick up the packaging box 200, it is supplied with air pressure to form an adsorption force, pick up the packaging box 200 and move it to a predetermined position. When the packaging box 200 needs to be released after moving to the predetermined position, the air pressure is cut off, so that the packaging box 200 falls to the predetermined position, completing the process of transporting the packaging box 200.

[0068] Optionally, two sets of suction cups 42b can be provided at the end of the adjustment section 42a. One set can transport the packaging box 200 from the loading position of the main water line 300 to the support platform 10, and the other set can simultaneously transport the defoamed packaging box 200 from the support platform 10 to the unloading position of the main water line 300, thereby completing the loading and unloading process simultaneously and improving the transfer efficiency of the packaging box 200.

[0069] This utility model embodiment provides a defoaming device 100. By setting the adjusting member 42 into a structure of adjusting part 42a and suction cup part 42b, the suction cup part 42b can directly pick up the packaging box 200, thereby improving the stability of handling the packaging box 200 and providing a reliable guarantee for the automated handling process.

[0070] As an optional embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 The defoaming device 100 also includes a positioning mechanism 50, which includes a first positioning element 51, a second positioning element 52, and a third positioning element 53, all of which are respectively disposed on the support platform 10. The first positioning element 51 is configured to acquire position information at the loading position so that the adjusting element 42 can grab the packaging box 200. The second positioning element 52 is configured to acquire position information at the unloading position so that the adjusting element 42 can release the packaging box 200. The third positioning element 53 is configured to acquire position information of the packaging box 200 on the support platform 10 so that the conveying mechanism 20 abuts against the packaging box 200.

[0071] Optionally, in this embodiment, a first positioning member 51, a second positioning member 52, and a third positioning member 53 are further provided in the defoaming device 100. The specific structure can be photoelectric detection, etc., and this application is not limited to this. The first positioning member 51 can detect the packaging box 200 at the loading position so that the transfer mechanism 40 can accurately capture the packaging box 200 and grasp it. The second positioning member 52 can ensure that the defoamed packaging box 200 is transferred to the unloading position so as to enter the next production node. The third positioning member 53 mainly positions the packaging box 200 on the support platform 10 so that the conveying mechanism 20 can accurately clamp the packaging box 200 and drive it into the defoaming mechanism 30 for defoaming.

[0072] This utility model embodiment provides a defoaming device 100. By setting the positioning mechanism 50, the loading position, unloading position and packaging box 200 on the support platform 10 can be accurately positioned, thereby providing a reliable guarantee for the handling stability of the transfer mechanism 40 and the conveying mechanism 20, and making the automated defoaming process more accurate.

[0073] As an optional embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The defoaming device 100 also includes an adjustment mechanism 60, which is connected to the inner support block 31 and can drive the inner support block 31 to move along the third direction Z.

[0074] Optionally, the adjustment mechanism 60 can be a positioning telescopic cylinder. The adjustment mechanism 60 is connected to the inner support block 31, thereby enabling the inner support block 31 to move and adjust. This is mainly to ensure that the box opening and the inner support block 31 are aligned during the process of conveying the packaging box 200 to the defoaming mechanism 30, so as to ensure that the inner support block 31 enters the box opening to form support.

[0075] When the packaging box 200 is being transported to the defoaming mechanism 30, if the box opening cannot directly correspond to the inner support block 31, the position of the inner support block 31 can be adjusted by the adjustment mechanism 60 until it corresponds to the box opening of the packaging box 200. The specific position of the inner support block 31 can be repeatedly adjusted according to the actual position of the box opening.

[0076] This utility model embodiment provides a defoaming device 100. By setting an adjustment mechanism 60 in the defoaming device 100, the adjustment performance of the adjustment mechanism 60 drives the inner support block 31 to move and adjust, which improves the accuracy of the docking between the inner support block 31 and the box opening of the packaging box 200, can better adapt to the changes in the position of the box opening, ensures the success rate of each docking, and thus improves the defoaming efficiency.
