Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of carton sealing technology, specifically a flexible automatic carton sealing device. Background Technology
[0002] In the logistics and packaging industry, carton sealing is one of the most common packaging processes. Traditional carton sealing machines mostly rely on manual packing. On the one hand, manual packing is slow; skilled workers can only seal 1-2 cartons per minute, and prolonged repetitive work easily leads to fatigue, affecting overall packaging efficiency. Furthermore, uneven force applied manually can cause tape wrinkles and poor adhesion, especially in winter when tape stickiness decreases, significantly increasing the rate of unsealed cartons. On the other hand, the labor intensity is high. Although handheld tape packers reduce wrist load, frequent arm swinging is still required, making workers prone to muscle strain. While existing automated packing equipment can automate the process, its large footprint and high cost mean that small businesses still rely on manual packing. Therefore, there is a need to design a compact, simple, flexible automatic carton sealing device to improve the current packing methods of small businesses and increase production efficiency.

Detailed Implementation
[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0019] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-6This utility model provides a technical solution: a flexible automatic sealing device for cartons, including a base 1, a gate frame 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, a lifting device 3 disposed inside the gate frame 2, and a lifting plate 4 fixedly connected to the lifting end of the lifting device 3. The lifting device 3 includes two lead screws 31, which are vertically disposed inside the gate frame 2. A lifting nut 34 is threadedly connected to the surface of the lead screw 31. A synchronous pulley 32 is fixedly connected to the surface of the lead screw 31 near the top. A synchronous belt 33 is connected between the two synchronous pulleys 32. The top end of one of the lead screws 31 extends to the top of the gate frame 2 and is fixedly connected to a second handle 35. The lifting plate 4 is fixedly connected to the surface of the lifting nut 34. By rotating the second handle 35, the two lead screws 31 rotate synchronously through the transmission of the synchronous belt 33, driving the lifting plate 4 to move up and down, thereby accommodating cartons of different heights.
[0020] A first connecting arm 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting plate 4. The angle between the first connecting arm 5 and the bottom of the lifting plate 4 is 120°-150°. A second connecting arm 6 is rotatably connected to one end of the first connecting arm 5. A connecting seat 7 is fixedly connected to one side of the second connecting arm 6. An elastic support rod 8 is rotatably connected to one side of the first connecting arm 5. One end of the elastic support rod 8 is slidably connected to the connecting seat 7. The angle between the second connecting arm 6 and the first connecting arm 5 varies from 85° to 120° through the connection of the elastic support rod 8. A support wheel 11 is also fixedly connected to one end of the first connecting arm 5. A roller 12 is rotatably connected to one end of the second connecting arm 6. When one side of the roller 12 is squeezed by the carton, it drives the second connecting arm 6 to rotate around one end of the first connecting arm 5. The elastic support rod 8 is compressed until the roller 12 moves the top of the carton.
[0021] The second connecting arm 6 is rotatably connected to a bent arm 13 located on one side of the connecting seat 7. A knife holder 14 is fixedly connected to the side of the bent arm 13 near the second connecting arm 6. A cutter 15 is fixedly connected to the surface of the knife holder 14. A limit groove is provided on the rotating seat connected to the bent arm 13 to prevent one side of the bent arm 13 from touching the second connecting arm 6. A pressure wheel 16 is rotatably connected to one end of the bent arm 13. A tension spring 17 is provided between the bent arm 13 and the second connecting arm 6. When the roller 12 just moves the top of the carton, one side of the pressure wheel 16 contacts the side wall of the carton, which can further press the tape. As the carton moves, the relative position between the roller 12 and the carton changes, the bent arm 13 rotates, the pressure wheel 16 also moves to the top of the carton, and the tension spring 17 is stretched.
[0022] A tape holder 9 is fixedly connected to the top side of the lifting plate 4. A tape roll 10 is provided on the surface of the tape holder 9. Adhesive for adhering tape is provided on the surface of the reel 12. One end of the tape roll 10 passes around the support wheel 11 and adheres to the surface of the reel 12. The adhesive side of the tape roll 10 is located on the other side in contact with the reel 12, so that the tape adheres to the surface of the carton and achieves sealing.
[0023] The tape holder 9 and the first connecting arm 5 are located in the middle of the lifting plate 4. Since the sealing position of the carton is usually located in the middle of the carton, it is convenient to seal the carton by setting it in the middle of the lifting plate 4.
[0024] When the pressure roller 16 is not subjected to external force, the horizontal plane at its bottom is located below the roll 12, which ensures that the pressure roller 16 can drive the curved arm 13 to rotate under the push of the carton, thereby improving the adhesion between the tape and the carton.
[0025] When the pressure roller 16 is not subjected to external force, the bottom of the cutter 15 is located below the horizontal plane where the bottom of the roll 12 is located, ensuring that the pressure roller 16 is reset under the action of the tension spring 17 when it is not subjected to external force, and the tape is cut by the cutter 15, thus realizing automatic tape cutting during the sealing process.
[0026] A roller 18 is rotatably connected to the top of the base 1, reducing the friction between the carton and the base 1. A left-right rotating screw 19 is also rotatably connected inside the base 1. The axial direction of the left-right rotating screw 19 is consistent with the length direction of the lifting plate 4. One end of the left-right rotating screw 19 extends outside the base 1 and is fixedly connected to a first handle 26. Nuts 20 are symmetrically arranged on the surface of the left-right rotating screw 19. The rotation of the left-right rotating screw 19 is driven by the first handle 26, enabling the two nuts 20 to move towards or away from each other. Slide rails 21 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the bottom inner wall of the base 1. The surface of the slide rails 21... A slider 22 is symmetrically arranged, and a support rod 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the slider 22. The top of the support rod 23 extends to the top of the base 1 and is fixedly connected to a side plate 25. A connecting frame 24 is fixedly connected between the two support rods 23 on the left and right sides. The connecting frame 24 is fixedly connected to the corresponding nut 20. Therefore, when the two nuts 20 move towards or away from each other, the distance between the two side plates 25 will change, but the center position between them will not change. Therefore, the two side plates 25 limit the carton and ensure that the sealing point is located below the roller 12, ensuring accurate sealing position.
[0027] The elastic support rod 8 includes a fixed cylinder 81 and a movable rod 82. One end of the movable rod 82 is located inside the fixed cylinder 81 and is slidably connected to the fixed cylinder 81. A damping block is fixedly connected to the end of the movable rod 82 inside the fixed cylinder 81. This prevents the movable rod 82 from moving back and forth repeatedly due to the extension and retraction of the spring 85. It also fixes one end of the movable rod 82 inside the fixed cylinder 81, preventing the fixed cylinder 81 from separating from the movable rod 82. A first limiting ring 84 is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixed cylinder 81, and a second limiting ring 83 is fixedly connected to the surface of the movable rod 82. A spring 85 is provided between the second limiting ring 83 and the first limiting ring 84.
[0028] When sealing the carton, first adjust the distance between the side panels 25 and the position of the lifting plate 4 according to the size of the carton. Then, the carton moves from one side of the top roller 12 on the base to the side of the pressure roller 16. When one side of the roller 12 is squeezed by the carton, it drives the second connecting arm 6 to rotate around one end of the first connecting arm 5, and the elastic support rod 8 is compressed. During the rolling process, the roller 12 adheres the tape to the surface of the carton. During the rotation of the second connecting arm 6, the water level of the roller 12 rises until it moves the top of the carton. When the roller 12 just moves the top of the carton, One side of the pressure roller 16 contacts the side wall of the carton, which can further compress the tape. As the carton moves, the relative position between the roller 12 and the carton changes, the curved arm 13 rotates, and the pressure roller 16 also moves to the top of the carton. The tension spring 17 is stretched to seal the top of the carton. When the roller 12 disengages from the top of the carton, it resets under the action of the elastic support rod 8. At this time, the pressure roller 16 moves to the edge of the carton. When the pressure roller 16 disengages from the carton, the curved arm 13 resets under the action of the tension spring 17, and the cutter 15 cuts the tape.
