[0040] Roller conveyor 2 is located near the end of roller conveyor 1 and conveys corrugated cardboard boxes vertically via lifting mechanism 4; wherein,

[0041] The second roller conveyor 2 includes a frame 21. The frame 21 has a plurality of mounting slots 211 at the end away from the first roller conveyor 1. Each mounting slot 211 is provided with a sensor 3.

[0042] And an external control system, the input of which is connected to the sensor 3 via an electrical signal, and its output is connected to the lifting mechanism 4 via an electrical signal.

[0043] Furthermore, it also includes a pair of side plates 22, which are installed on both sides of the roller conveyor 2, and the bottom of the pair of side plates 22 is provided with a sliding groove 221.

[0044] Specifically, the lifting mechanism 4 includes a folding and retracting assembly 42, a second side plate 43, a third side plate 44, a pair of guide rods 48, and a mounting plate 410; wherein,

[0045] The folding and retracting assembly 42 is located at the bottom of the side plate 22;

[0046] The second side plate 43 and the third side plate 44 are both provided on the mounting plate 410, and a lead screw 45 is provided between the second side plate 43 and the third side plate 44; a nut 46 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 45, and a guide block 47 is provided on the outer periphery of the nut 46; the guide block 47 is slidably connected to a pair of guide rods 48; the pair of guide rods 48 are mounted on the mounting plate 410.

[0047] A motor 49 is installed on the other side of the side plate 44, and the output end of the motor 49 is connected to one end of the lead screw 45.

[0048] Specifically, the folding and retracting assembly 42 includes two pairs of adjusting plates 421, and each adjusting plate 421 has a coupling 422 at both ends; wherein,

[0049] Two couplings 422 located at the top and close to the roller conveyor 1 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the side plate 22 via connecting blocks 41; two couplings 422 located at the top and away from the roller conveyor 1 are slidably connected to the chute 221 via connecting blocks 41.

[0050] The two couplings 422 located at the bottom and close to the roller conveyor 1 are both connected to the side plate 43; the two couplings 422 located at the bottom and away from the roller conveyor 1 are both connected to the guide block 47.

[0051] Two adjusting plates 421 located on the same side are rotatably connected by a coupling 422.

[0052] In this embodiment, the present invention designs roller conveyor 1 and roller conveyor 2. Roller conveyor 1 is responsible for conveying corrugated boxes in the horizontal direction, providing a stable and continuous transportation path for the handling of corrugated boxes, ensuring that corrugated boxes can be moved quickly and smoothly from the production line to the designated position, thereby improving the efficiency of the overall production process. Roller conveyor 2 is set near the end of roller conveyor 1 and conveys corrugated boxes in the vertical direction through lifting mechanism 4, realizing a seamless connection from horizontal conveying to vertical lifting of boxes, and expanding the function of the handling platform.

[0053] Furthermore, a trough 212 is provided on the top side of the frame 21 away from the roller conveyor 1.

[0054] To prevent corrugated boxes from falling off during transport to the roller conveyor 2 and causing damage, this embodiment also includes an anti-fall mechanism 5. The anti-fall mechanism 5 includes multiple telescopic columns 51, one end of each telescopic column 51 is located in the receiving groove 212, and the other end is connected to each other through a connecting rod 52.

[0055] It should be noted that when the lifting mechanism 4 rises to the top, the telescopic column 51 should be in the extended state, and when the lifting mechanism 4 descends to the bottom, the telescopic column 51 should retract into the receiving groove 212.

[0056] Specifically, sensor 3 is a photoelectric sensor.

[0057] As is well known, the principle of photoelectric sensor to detect whether corrugated cardboard box has reached the predetermined position is as follows: the photoelectric sensor detects the presence of corrugated cardboard box by emitting and receiving light beams. When the corrugated cardboard box enters the detection range of sensor 3, the light beam is blocked, and sensor 3 sends a signal. This sensor 3 has the advantages of fast response speed, high detection accuracy and convenient installation, and is widely used in automated production lines.

[0058] In this embodiment, the present invention has a plurality of mounting slots 211 at the end of the frame 21 away from the roller conveyor 1. Each mounting slot 211 is equipped with a photoelectric sensor. These sensors 3 can accurately detect whether the corrugated carton has been transported to the predetermined position. When the carton reaches the designated position, the sensor 3 transmits the signal to the external control system. The control system then controls the lifting mechanism 4 to descend to another position, realizing precise and automatic control of the lifting mechanism 4 without manual intervention, which greatly improves the accuracy and efficiency of handling.

[0059] Working principle: In use, the corrugated carton is first horizontally conveyed to roller conveyor 2 via roller conveyor 1. Then, roller conveyor 2 transports the corrugated carton to the edge position near roller conveyor 2. At this time, sensor 3 detects the corrugated carton and sends a signal to the external control system. The external control system controls motor 49 to start. The motor shaft of motor 49 operates, driving the lead screw 45 to rotate, thereby driving nut 46 to move linearly, realizing the linear movement of guide block 47. This causes the included angle of the adjusting rod to change, thus changing the height of roller conveyor 2.

[0060] In summary, through the combination of the above structures, this utility model provides an auxiliary handling platform for corrugated cardboard box production. Through the synergistic effect of each structure, it achieves efficient, stable, and automated handling of corrugated cardboard boxes, solving many problems existing in traditional handling methods. It has significant practical value and innovation, and can bring many conveniences and benefits to corrugated cardboard box manufacturers.

It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
