[0022] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model, the accompanying drawings used in the embodiments will be briefly described below.

[0024] Figure 2 for Figure 1 A structural diagram of the disassembly support base of the packaging box feeding and opening device in the middle;

[0025] Figure 3 for Figure 2 Another structural diagram of the disassembly support base of the packaging box feeding and opening device in the middle; Detailed Implementation

[0026] To facilitate understanding of this utility model, a more comprehensive description of this utility model will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the packaging box feeding and opening device 1000 includes: a support base 1100, a storage rack 1200, a material picking and opening module 1300, and an auxiliary opening module 1400. The storage rack 1200 is disposed on the support base 1100 and has a discharge port. The discharge port faces the material picking and opening module 1300. The material picking and opening module 1300 includes a material picking suction component 1310 and a material picking transfer component 1320. The material picking suction component 1310 is disposed on the material picking transfer component 1320 and is used to suction and fix one side of the packaging box. The auxiliary box opening module 1400 includes an auxiliary box opening adsorption component 1410 and a box opening drive component 1420, wherein the box opening drive component 1420 is connected to the auxiliary box opening adsorption component 1410; the material picking and transferring component 1320 is used to drive the material picking and adsorption component 1310 to transfer the packaging box on the storage rack 1200 to the auxiliary box opening adsorption component 1410, the auxiliary box opening adsorption component 1410 is used to adsorb and fix the other side of the packaging box, and the box opening drive component 1420 is used to drive the auxiliary box opening adsorption component 1410 to move away from the material picking and adsorption component 1310 so that the inner cavity of the packaging box opens.

[0028] It should be noted that multiple unopened packaging boxes are stacked on the storage rack 1200. When an opening and unloading operation is required, the material-picking suction component 1310 first suctions and fixes one side of one of the packaging boxes from the discharge port of the storage rack 1200. Then, the material-picking transfer component 1320 moves the material-picking suction component 1310 to the auxiliary opening suction component 1410, where the auxiliary opening suction component 1410 suctions and fixes the other side of the packaging box. In other words, the material-picking suction component 1310 and the auxiliary opening suction component 1410 respectively suction and fix the two sides of the packaging box. When the material-picking suction component 1310 and the auxiliary opening suction component 1410 separate, the opening of the packaging box is naturally opened, thus opening the inner cavity of the packaging box. Since there are no actions that could cause scratches or damage to the packaging box during the entire opening process, compared to the existing method of opening the packaging box by pushing open the opening and inserting into the interior, this method avoids damage to the packaging box and improves its appearance quality. Furthermore, compared to the existing method of opening boxes manually, it improves opening efficiency and enables mass production. In this embodiment, when the material-picking suction component 1310 and the auxiliary opening suction component 1410 are adsorbing and fixing the two sides of the packaging box, the suction cups on the material-picking suction component 1310 and the auxiliary opening suction component 1410 are staggered. After the packaging box is opened, the suction cups on the material-picking suction component 1310 and the auxiliary opening suction component 1410 are basically aligned, thus further ensuring that the packaging box stands upright and does not collapse after opening.

[0029] The storage rack 1200 is inclinedly mounted on the support base 1100, with its outlet facing downwards, allowing packaging boxes to be stacked on the outlet. The material-retrieving and opening module 1300 is located below the outlet. This allows the material-retrieving suction component 1310 to directly adhere and fix the packaging boxes on the storage rack 1200, pulling them out of the outlet. Simultaneously, the inclined arrangement of the storage rack 1200 ensures that after one packaging box is removed, the subsequent boxes will move directly to the outlet under gravity. Thus, continuous feeding of packaging boxes can be achieved without the need for additional components. In this embodiment, a sensor is installed on the storage rack 1200. The sensor is used to identify the storage status of the packaging boxes on the storage rack 1200. When the storage of packaging boxes is low, the sensor will identify the low storage and transmit a signal to the control terminal or issue an alarm to remind the operator to continue feeding materials. This allows the operator to continue feeding materials to the storage rack 1200, ensuring the continuous operation of the machine, reducing standby time, and improving efficiency. For example, the sensor can be a fiber optic sensor.

[0030] Please see Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the storage rack 1200 is provided with multiple baffles 1210, each baffle 1210 being disposed on the discharge port. The baffles 1210 are used to limit the position of the packaging box. For example, three baffles 1210 are provided, respectively disposed at the bottom and both sides of the discharge port. The position of each baffle 1210 is adjustable. For example, the baffles 1210 on both sides are provided with mounting posts, which pass through the storage rack 1200. The position of the baffles 1210 can be adjusted by moving the position of the mounting posts. The bottom baffle 1210 can be provided with strip-shaped mounting holes. The bottom baffle 1210 can be fixed to the storage rack 1200 by screws or bolts. At the same time, the position of the bottom baffle 1210 can be changed through the strip-shaped mounting holes, thereby achieving position adjustment of the bottom baffle 1210.

[0031] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, the storage rack 1200 includes a base plate 1220 and at least two limiting side stops 1230. The two limiting side stops 1230 are respectively and adjustablely disposed on both sides of the base plate 1220, and a limiting cavity for the packaging box is formed between the two limiting side stops 1230. Thus, since the position of the limiting side stops 1230 is adjustable, the relative position of the two limiting side stops 1230 can be adjusted to accommodate packaging boxes of different sizes, thereby improving the versatility of the storage rack 1200. In this embodiment, the limiting side stop 1230 includes a limiting side plate 1231 and an adjusting corner block 1232. The adjusting corner block 1232 has an adjusting hole, and the base plate 1220 also has a mounting hole. The mounting hole on the base plate 1220 aligns with the adjusting hole on the adjusting corner block 1232, and the adjusting corner block 1232 is connected to the limiting side plate 1231. Thus, by changing the relative position of the adjusting corner block 1232 on the base plate 1220, the position of the limiting side plate 1231 can be adjusted, making it suitable for packaging boxes of different sizes. For example, the adjusting corner block 1232 can be detachably connected to the base plate 1220 using screws or bolts. Simultaneously, the limiting side plate 1231 and the adjusting corner block 1232 are also detachably connected using bolts or screws.

[0032] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, the material handling and transfer component 1320 includes a material handling drive cylinder 1321, a material handling swing component 1322, a swing frame 1323, and an auxiliary rotating component 1324.

When the material picking drive cylinder 1321 is started, the material picking swing component 1322 realizes the swing of the swing frame 1323. While the swing frame 1323 swings, the auxiliary rotating component 1324 drives the material picking adsorption component 1310 to rotate. In this way, through the cooperation of various components, the material picking adsorption component 1310 can be moved, thereby adsorbing and fixing the packaging box of the storage rack 1200 and transporting it to connect with the auxiliary opening adsorption component 1410 to realize the opening operation of the packaging box. Specifically, the material-picking swing component 1322 includes a swing block 1322a, a swing bearing seat 1322b, a long swing shaft 1322c, and a short swing shaft 1322d. The material-picking drive cylinder 1321 is connected to the swing block 1322a, the long swing shaft 1322c is connected to the swing block 1322a, the swing bearing seat 1322b is sleeved on the long swing shaft 1322c, and the long swing shaft 1322c and the short swing shaft 1322d are respectively connected to the swing frame 1323. When the material-picking drive cylinder 1321 is started, it drives the swing block 1322a to swing. The swing block 1322a drives the long swing shaft 1322c to rotate, which, together with the short swing shaft 1322d, realizes the swing of the swing frame 1323. The auxiliary rotating component 1324 includes an auxiliary bearing seat 1324a, a bearing swivel 1324b, an auxiliary rod 1324c, and a connecting rod 1324d. The auxiliary bearing seat 1324a is mounted on the support base 1100. The bearing swivel 1324b is rotatably connected to the auxiliary bearing seat 1324a. One end of the auxiliary rod 1324c is mounted on the bearing swivel 1324b, and the other end is connected to the connecting rod 1324d. The connecting rod 1324d is rotatably mounted on the swing frame 1323. The material-collecting adsorption component 1310 is mounted on the connecting rod 1324d. When the swing frame 1323 swings, it drives the rotation of the bearing swivel 1324b and the connecting rod 1324d, thereby realizing the movement of the material-collecting adsorption component 1310. Thus, by adopting a linkage drive structure, smooth and continuous movement can be achieved, while making the overall structure more compact and ensuring the stability of material collection. In this embodiment, a limiting buffer 1325 is also provided near the pendulum block 1322a to limit and buffer the swing of the pendulum block 1322a; specifically, the limiting buffer 1325 includes a limiting block and a buffer.

[0033] Please see Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, the material-picking suction member 1310 includes a material-picking suction cup fixing frame and a material-picking suction cup. The material-picking transfer member 1320 is connected to the material-picking suction cup fixing frame, and the material-picking suction cup is mounted on the material-picking suction cup fixing frame. The material-picking suction cup is used to adsorb and fix the packaging box, thus avoiding damage to the packaging box.

[0034] Please see Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the auxiliary box-opening suction component 1410 includes a suction cup mounting bracket and an auxiliary box-opening suction cup. One end of the suction cup mounting bracket is connected to the box-opening driving component 1420, and the auxiliary box-opening suction cup is disposed on the other end of the suction cup mounting bracket. In this embodiment, the box-opening drive component 1420 includes a drive cylinder 1422, a box-opening lower swing block 1421, a rotating shaft 1423, and two bearing seats 1424. The two bearing seats 1424 are arranged opposite to each other, and the rotating shaft 1423 is rotatably mounted on the two bearing seats 1424. The material-picking suction cup mounting bracket is installed on the rotating shaft 1423, and one end of the rotating shaft 1423 is connected to one end of the box-opening lower swing block 1421. The other end of the box-opening lower swing block 1421 is connected to the drive end of the drive cylinder 1422. By extending and retracting the drive cylinder 1422, the box-opening lower swing block 1421 is driven to swing, thereby realizing the rotation of the rotating shaft 1423, and thus realizing the swing of the suction cup mounting bracket.

[0035] Please see Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the packaging box loading and opening device 1000 further includes a packaging box positioning seat 1500, which is disposed on one side of the auxiliary opening module 1400. After the auxiliary opening suction cup fixes the packaging box, the opening drive component 1420 transports the packaging box to the packaging box positioning seat 1500 to await unloading. In this embodiment, the packaging box positioning seat 1500 includes two spaced packaging box positioning blocks, which respectively support the two ends of the packaging box. At the same time, a clearance area is formed between the two packaging box positioning blocks for temporary clearance of the auxiliary opening suction component 1410.

[0036] The packaging box loading and unloading device 1000 also includes a packaging box unloading robot 1600, which is located on one side of the packaging box positioning seat 1500. The packaging box unloading robot 1600 is used to remove packaging boxes from the packaging box positioning seat 1500 and transport them to the next workstation. For example, the packaging box unloading robot 1600 includes a horizontal linear motor module, a lifting cylinder, and a suction component. The lifting cylinder is connected to the horizontal linear motor module and the suction component. The horizontal linear motor module, in conjunction with the lifting cylinder, drives the suction component to move, thereby realizing the handling operation of the packaging box. After the packaging box unloading robot 1600 removes the packaging box from the packaging box positioning seat 1500, the opening drive component 1420 drives the auxiliary opening suction component 1410 to reset, thus making the entire structure more ingenious and coherent.
