[0050] In the process of strip box packaging, first, the small box group is wrapped with strip box paper after stacking forming, and then the transparent paper is wrapped outside the strip box paper to play a sealing role.For the packaging of cigar strip box, since the cigar strip box is square, the strip box paper is usually folded and packaged on the strip box by hand, and the packaging efficiency is low.
[0051] In order to solve the above problems, such as Figure 1As shown, the embodiment provides a carton folding device for folding the carton paper of the end face of the carton 100. In this embodiment, the folding of the carton paper of the end face of the square cigar carton is targeted. The carton paper includes the left carton paper 200, the right carton paper 300 and the upper carton paper 400 on the end face of the carton 100. The carton folding device includes a base 1, a top plate 2, a first rotating folding assembly 3, a folding stopper 4 and a second rotating folding assembly 5. The top plate 2 is arranged on the base 1 and is supported and fixed by a rack (not shown in the figure). The top plate 2 and the upper surface of the base 1 form a gap structure for placing the carton 100. The base 1 is provided with the first rotating folding assembly 3 on both sides. The first rotating folding assembly 3 includes a first rotating folding plate 31 arranged to rotate. The first rotating folding plate 31 rotates to fold the left carton paper 200. The base 1 is provided with the folding stopper 4 on both sides. The folding stopper 4 is used to fold the right carton paper 300. The top plate 2 is provided with the second rotating folding assembly 5 on both sides. The second rotating folding assembly 5 includes a second rotating folding plate 51 arranged to rotate. The second rotating folding plate 51 rotates to fold the upper carton paper 400.
[0052] In this embodiment, the first rotating folding assembly 3, the folding stopper 4 and the second rotating folding assembly 5 are arranged in sequence along the transmission direction of the carton 100. The above arrangement can realize the sequential folding of the left carton paper 200, the right carton paper 300 and the upper carton paper 400, thereby realizing the folding of the carton paper of the end face of the carton 100.
[0053] The carton folding device plays a role in limiting the carton 100 up and down through the gap structure between the base 1 and the top plate 2. The carton 100 moves along the transmission direction. When the carton 100 moves to the position of the first rotating folding assembly 3, the first rotating folding plate 31 of the first rotating folding assembly 3 rotates to fold the left carton paper 200, so that the left carton paper 200 is attached to the end face of the carton 100. When the carton 100 moves to the position of the folding stopper 4, the folding stopper 4 compresses the right carton paper 300, so that the right carton paper 300 is attached to the end face of the carton 100. When the carton 100 moves to the position of the second rotating folding assembly 5, the second rotating folding plate 51 of the second rotating folding assembly 5 rotates to fold the upper carton paper 400, so that the upper carton paper 400 is attached to the end face of the carton 100. Thus, the automatic folding of the carton paper of the end face of the carton 100 is realized, manual operation is replaced, folding efficiency is improved, and cost is reduced.
[0054] It should be noted that the height of the gap structure between the top plate 2 and the base 1 is the thickness of a cigarette, which can prevent the carton 100 from moving up and down. The distance between the two folding stoppers 4 is equal to the width of a cigarette.
[0055] In addition, for the conveying of the carton 100, a conveying mechanism can be arranged on the base 1, which belongs to the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0061] In the embodiment, the rotating angle of the second rotating folding plate 51 is also 90°, and the second rotating folding plate 51 rotates from the third position to the fourth position, and the third position and the fourth position are 90°. The third position is the position where the second rotating folding plate 51 is perpendicular to the end surface of the carton 100, and the fourth position is the position where the second rotating folding plate 51 is parallel to the end surface of the carton 100.
[0062] In the embodiment, the second rotating folding plate 51 is an arc-shaped structure, and the central angle corresponding to the second rotating folding plate 51 is 90 degrees. The structure is simple, easy to manufacture, and will not scratch the operator. In other embodiments, the second rotating folding plate 51 can also be a flat plate structure.
[0063] Optionally, the folding stop piece 4 comprises a folding stop plate, which is installed on the side edge of the base 1. The right side carton paper 300 is folded through the folding stop plate. The structure of the folding stop plate is simple and easy to manufacture.
