[0028] As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, the embodiment provides a kind of box opening mechanism, the box opening mechanism provided in the embodiment can be assembled in the side of box conveying mechanism, for carrying out box opening operation to the box blank conveyed by box conveying mechanism.

[0029] Refer to the drawings of specification Figure 1 and attached Figure 2As shown, the opening mechanism includes a mounting base plate 1, an opening assembly slidingly assembled on the mounting base, an opening plate 2 driving the front end of the opening assembly, and a box insertion driving assembly 4 inserting the opening plate 2 and the pressing plate 3 into the box blank and withdrawing the opening plate 2 and the pressing plate 3 from the box blank after opening the box blank; the opening assembly includes a sliding seat 5, an opening driving member 6 assembled on the sliding seat 5, the opening plate 2 assembled on the opening driving member 6, and the pressing plate 3 arranged in parallel with the opening plate 2, the box insertion driving assembly 4 drives the opening plate 2 and the pressing plate 3 of the opening assembly to extend into the box blank to be opened, the opening driving member 6 drives the opening plate 2 to rotate, the opening plate 2 opens the box blank, and the pressing plate 3 is used to press the box blank to avoid the whole box blank from moving when the opening plate 2 rotates.

[0030] As an example of the present embodiment, if the above opening mechanism is applied to an opening machine, the mounting base plate 1 can be part of the rack of the opening machine.

[0031] As another example of the present embodiment, if the above opening mechanism is assembled on one side of a box conveying mechanism, the mounting base plate 1 can be part of the rack of the box conveying mechanism.

[0032] The opening plate 2 and the pressing plate 3 inserted into the box blank are used to open the box blank in the present embodiment, the pressing plate 3 is inserted into the box blank to be opened together with the opening plate 2, and the pressing plate 3 fixes the box blank when the opening plate 2 rotates to open the box blank, thereby avoiding the displacement of the box blank caused by the opening plate 2, and affecting the positioning accuracy of the packaging box. Without the cooperation of the pressing plate 3, the box blank will be lifted at one end of the side surface of the box conveying mechanism when the opening plate 2 rotates, which will cause the displacement of the packaging box, affect the positioning accuracy of the packaging box formed after the box blank is opened, and affect the subsequent process. The opening plate 2 and the pressing plate 3 work together to accurately open the box blank, improve the success rate of opening the box blank, and avoid the displacement of the box blank when opening the box blank.

[0033] As a preferred embodiment of the present embodiment, the opening plate 2 includes a first edge 7 and a second edge 8, the first edge 7 rotates around the second edge 8 when the opening driving member 6 drives the opening plate 2 to rotate, and the second edge 8 is collinear with the rotation axis of the opening driving member 6. In the present embodiment, one edge of the opening plate 2 is collinear with the rotation axis of the opening driving member 6, which ensures that the second edge 8 can abut against the connecting part between the bottom surface and the side surface of the box blank after the opening plate 2 is inserted into the box blank, and ensures that the rotation axis of the side surface of the box blank relative to the bottom surface is substantially coincident with the rotation axis of the opening plate 2 when the opening plate 2 is flipped, which is beneficial to the opening of the box blank and further improves the success rate of opening the box blank.

[0034] As an example of this embodiment, the distance between the outer edge 9 of the pressing plate and the second edge 8 of the opening plate 2 is adapted to the width of the packaging box of the box blank to be opened. The pressing plate 3 is slidably mounted on the sliding seat 5 and locked and fixed to the sliding seat 5 by a locking member. The distance between the two sides of the pressing plate 3 and the opening plate 2 is adapted to the width of the bottom surface of the box blank, generally slightly smaller than the width of the bottom surface of the box blank, so that the opening plate 2 and the pressing plate 3 can be smoothly inserted into the box blank. At the same time, the outer edge of the pressing plate 3 inserted into the box blank can be pressed against the bottom surface of the box blank, more preferably against the connection between the bottom surface of the box blank and the other side, to prevent the bottom surface of the box blank from lifting and causing the box blank to shift when the opening plate 2 rotates. The pressing plate 3 is slidably mounted on the sliding seat 5 and locked and fixed by a locking member. This structure ensures that the distance between the pressing plate 3 and the opening plate 2 is adjustable to adapt to box blanks of different widths and sizes.
