Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of box nailing machine technology, specifically an automatic box nailing machine with adjustable width. Background Technology
[0002] Cardboard boxes, as an important carrier in modern logistics and packaging industries, are widely used in food, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and other fields. In the cardboard box production process, the stapling machine is one of the key pieces of equipment for completing the cardboard box forming process. Its function is to fix the joints of the cardboard box with metal staples to ensure the strength and stability of the cardboard box.
[0003] Traditional carton stapling machines typically use a fixed width design, meaning each machine can only produce cartons of a single size and cannot handle cartons of different dimensions. When a company needs to produce cartons of various sizes, it can only do so by purchasing multiple machines, which not only increases equipment investment costs but also occupies a lot of production space. In addition, traditional carton stapling machines have a low degree of automation; the feeding, alignment, and stapling processes of cartons mostly rely on manual operation, resulting in low production efficiency and certain safety hazards. Therefore, we propose an automatic carton stapling machine with adjustable width. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the problems raised in the background art, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic box-making machine with adjustable width, comprising a conveying section and a fastening section. The fastening section includes a second support, on which a transmission roller assembly is mounted, a lead screw is mounted, and a crank is mounted on the second support. The crank is connected to the lead screw, and a connecting member is movably mounted on the lead screw. The connecting member passes through the gap of the transmission roller assembly and connects to a limiting plate. Columns are mounted on both sides of the second support, and a connecting top plate is vertically adjustable on each column. A fastening assembly is mounted on the connecting top plate.
[0005] Preferably, the conveying unit includes a first support, with a gantry frame at both ends of the first support. A sliding rail is provided on the gantry frame, and a closing component is slidably provided on the sliding rail. The closing component is used to close the carton opening and convey it to the stapling part. Through the cooperation of the sliding rail and the closing component, the carton opening is automatically closed, reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency.
[0006] Preferably, a pulley is provided inside the limiting plate, and a conveyor belt is provided around the pulley to assist in the transmission of the carton, reduce friction, and ensure that the carton moves smoothly within the limiting plate.
[0007] Preferably, the column is provided with a slide rail, and a slider is slidably provided on the slide rail. The slider is connected to the connecting top plate, so that the lifting and lowering of the connecting top plate is more stable and precise, and the stapling assembly can be accurately aligned with the stapling position of the carton.
[0008] Preferably, both the first and second supports are provided with legs at their bottoms, and the bottoms of the legs are provided with casters. The casters enable the equipment to move flexibly, making it easy to adjust its position in the production workshop and improving the applicability of the equipment.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0010] During operation, cartons enter the equipment via the conveyor section. The first support and gantry of the conveyor section support the sliding rail. The closing assembly moves on the sliding rail, automatically closing the opening of the carton to ensure that the carton is in a neat position when it enters the stapling section. The operator, based on the width of the carton, drives the lead screw to rotate via a crank, causing the connecting piece to move the limiting plates and adjust the distance between the two limiting plates to accommodate the width of the carton. The conveyor belt inside the limiting plates assists in the smooth transport of the carton, preventing jamming or deviation. Through the cooperation of the crank and the lead screw, the position of the limiting plates is precisely controlled. The system adjusts the carton to ensure it doesn't deform or shift during transport due to unsuitable width. After the carton enters the stapling section, a limiting plate fixes its width, while the drive roller assembly continues to transport the carton, ensuring accurate positioning. Based on the carton's height, the operator adjusts the height of the connecting top plate using the slide rails and sliders within the column, ensuring the stapling assembly accurately aligns with the carton's stapling position. Once the connecting top plate is raised to the appropriate height, the stapling assembly enters its working state, ready to perform the stapling operation. Supported by the connecting top plate, the stapling assembly staples the carton's joint. During stapling, the pressure and time of the stapling assembly can be adjusted according to the carton's material and thickness, ensuring a secure stapling without damaging the carton. After one carton is stapled, the drive roller assembly outputs the carton, and the next carton enters the conveyor section, allowing for continuous operation. When the equipment position needs adjustment, the operator can easily move the equipment using the casters at the bottom of the first and second supports, adapting to different production layout requirements. This allows for rapid width adjustment, accommodating various carton sizes and significantly reducing equipment purchase costs and space occupancy. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Both the first support 3 and the second support 7 are equipped with support legs at the bottom, and casters are installed at the bottom of the support legs. The casters allow the equipment to move flexibly, making it easy to adjust its position in the production workshop and improving the applicability of the equipment.
[0022] Working Principle: During operation, the carton enters the equipment through the conveyor section 1. The first support 3 and the gantry 4 of the conveyor section 1 support the sliding rail 5. The closing assembly 6 moves on the sliding rail 5, automatically closing the opening of the carton to ensure that the carton is in a neat state when it enters the stapling section. The operator, according to the width of the carton, drives the lead screw 9 to rotate via the crank handle 10, causing the connecting piece 11 to move the limiting plate 12, adjusting the distance between the two limiting plates 12 to accommodate the width of the carton. The conveyor belt inside the limiting plate 12 assists in the smooth transport of the carton, preventing jamming or deviation. Through the cooperation of the crank handle 10 and the lead screw 9, the limiting plate 12... The position is precisely adjusted to ensure that the carton will not deform or shift due to unsuitable width during transmission. After the carton enters the fastening section 2, the limiting plate 12 fixes its width direction. At the same time, the transmission roller group 8 continues to transmit the carton to ensure its accurate position. According to the height of the carton, the operator adjusts the height of the connecting top plate 14 through the slide rail and slider in the column 13 so that the fastening assembly 15 can accurately align with the fastening position of the carton. After the connecting top plate 14 is raised and lowered to a suitable height, the fastening assembly 15 enters the working state and is ready to perform the fastening operation. With the support of the connecting top plate 14, the fastening assembly 15 fastens the interface part of the carton. During the stapling process, the pressure and time of the stapling components can be adjusted according to the material and thickness of the carton to ensure that the stapling is firm and does not damage the carton. After the stapling of one carton is completed, the drive roller group 8 outputs the carton, and the next carton enters the conveyor section 1 at the same time, and the equipment enters the continuous operation state. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the equipment, the operator can easily move the equipment through the casters at the bottom of the first support 3 and the second support 7 to adapt to different production layout requirements. This enables the rapid adjustment of the equipment width and can adapt to the production of various specifications of cartons, significantly reducing the equipment purchase cost and space occupancy rate.
