[0023] To enhance understanding of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. These embodiments are only used to explain the present utility model and do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0024] A transfer and conveying device for easy cutting and connection of corrugated cardboard includes a horizontal rotating mechanism, an extension displacement mechanism, and a transmission mechanism 6. The transfer and conveying device is installed between an upper-level conveyor and a lower-level conveyor. The horizontal rotating mechanism is located below the extension displacement mechanism, and the transmission mechanism 6 is located below the extension displacement mechanism. The horizontal rotating mechanism controls the extension displacement mechanism to rotate horizontally. The extension displacement mechanism drives the transmission mechanism 6 to reciprocate and retract linearly in the horizontal direction. The transmission mechanism 6 carries and transfers corrugated cardboard and performs loading and unloading functions from the upper-level conveyor to the lower-level conveyor.

[0025] This transfer and conveying equipment utilizes the horizontal rotation mechanism to enable the extension displacement mechanism and the transmission mechanism 6 above it to rotate horizontally around a preset rotation center, thus addressing the docking issues between conveying paths in different directions. The extension displacement mechanism drives the transmission mechanism 6 to extend linearly, allowing the transmission mechanism 6 to reach the position of the upper or lower level conveying equipment, achieving the connection and transfer of corrugated cardboard. The transmission mechanism 6 uses a transmission structure (such as a conveyor belt or chain) to transfer the cardboard from the input end to the output end, coordinating with the extension action to complete loading and unloading.

[0026] This implementation effectively solves the transfer problem of corrugated cardboard between conveying paths of different directions or heights, improving the flexibility and automation of the overall conveying system. By incorporating an extension displacement mechanism and a transmission mechanism 6, the equipment can actively adjust its spatial position to adapt to different operating scenarios. The combination of rotation and displacement functions significantly enhances the system's adaptability to complex workstation layouts, improving the efficiency and stability of corrugated cardboard transfer between connecting and cutting processes. Furthermore, the equipment has a compact structure, making it suitable for integration into existing production lines.

[0027] In one possible implementation, the horizontal rotation mechanism includes a first actuator, a first guide mechanism, and a base plate 3, with the base plate 3 supporting the extension displacement mechanism.

[0028] The first actuator is installed below the base plate 3, providing the driving force for horizontal rotation; the first guide mechanism is used to achieve controlled guidance, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the rotation process. The base plate 3 serves as an installation and support platform, with an extension displacement mechanism fixedly connected to its upper surface. The rotation mechanism drives the entire extension displacement unit to rotate around the base plate 3, realizing the switching of the working surface direction, thereby achieving connection with different conveyor lines or workstations.

[0029] This structure provides a compact and functionally integrated rotary platform design. By setting guide mechanisms and actuators on the base plate 3, stable and reliable rotation control can be achieved, and stable support can be provided for the upper mounting structure, ensuring the overall accuracy and reliability of the equipment operation and effectively improving the adaptability and flexibility of cardboard transfer.

[0030] In one possible implementation, the first guiding mechanism includes a base 1 and a plurality of guide posts 2. The guide posts 2 are distributed around the first actuator in a circular trajectory. The surface of the base 1 is provided with a circular guide groove 8, and the guide posts 2 are movably inserted into the guide groove 8.

[0031] Multiple guide posts 2 are symmetrically distributed and form a ring structure around the center of the first actuator. The guide posts 2 are inserted into the guide grooves 8 set on the surface of the base 1, and can slide along the guide grooves 8 during rotation to achieve stable positioning and guiding functions during rotation. When the first actuator drives the base plate 3 to rotate, the guide posts 2 move in coordination along the arc trajectory of the guide grooves 8 to avoid shaking and misalignment.

[0032] The guide structure enhances the stability and precise guiding capability of the rotating mechanism. The movement of the guide column 2 along the guide groove 8 effectively alleviates the interference caused by off-center loading during rotation, which helps to improve the overall stability and service life of the equipment.

[0033] In one possible implementation, the guide post 2 is rolled to the inner wall of the guide groove 8.

[0034] A rolling connection structure, such as a roller or ball, is provided between the guide post 2 and the guide groove 8, so that the guide post 2 moves in the groove in a rolling manner instead of a sliding manner, thereby greatly reducing frictional resistance and improving guiding flexibility and response speed.

[0035] Roller connections can significantly reduce wear between structures, extend the service life of guide components, improve the smoothness of rotation of the rotating mechanism, and enhance control accuracy and system response speed.

[0036] In one possible implementation, the bottom of the guide post 2 is provided with a roller, which is rotatably connected to the bracket, and the bracket is connected to the bottom of the guide post 2 via a universal joint.

[0037] The roller is mounted at the bottom of the bracket and connected to the bottom of the guide post 2 via a universal joint. The universal joint allows the roller to make full contact with the ground or the surface of the guide groove 8 at multiple angles, ensuring the flexibility of the guide post 2 during movement and its adaptability to changes in the path. The rotating connection structure of the roller helps the guide post 2 to run smoothly in the guide groove 8.

[0038] The roller and universal joint structure improves the adaptability of the guiding mechanism in complex motion paths, reduces friction, increases structural flexibility, effectively reduces motion resistance and structural stress concentration, and further enhances the operating efficiency and durability of the equipment.

[0039] In one possible implementation, the extension displacement mechanism includes two sets of mirror-arranged four-bar linkages and a second actuator. A synchronous connecting rod 7 is provided between the opposing connecting rods 4 of the two four-bar linkages. The second actuator is connected to one of the synchronous connecting rods 7. The connecting rods 5 of the four-bar linkages are connected to the mounting frame. A transmission mechanism 6 is provided in the mounting frame.

[0040] Two sets of symmetrically arranged four-bar linkages form a linked structure through synchronous connecting rods 7. The second actuator drives one of the synchronous connecting rods 7 to achieve coordinated action of the two sets of four-bar linkages, thereby driving the mounting frame to move back and forth. The mounting frame is integrated with the transmission mechanism 6 and can extend and retract along a set trajectory under drive, allowing the transmission mechanism 6 to accurately connect with the upper and lower level conveying equipment to realize the conveying connection of the cardboard.

[0041] The double four-bar linkage structure improves the rigidity and load-bearing capacity of the structure, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the equipment during extension and retraction. The linkage design of the synchronous connecting rod 7 effectively coordinates the movement of the two four-bar linkages, avoiding displacement deviations and mechanism step loss, thus improving the system's motion consistency and control performance.

[0042] In one possible implementation, the first actuator is a rotary motor 9, and the second actuator is a telescopic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder.

[0043] The first actuator uses a rotary motor 9 to provide stable angular displacement control and achieve precise rotation of the transfer and conveying platform; the second actuator uses a telescopic cylinder or hydraulic cylinder to achieve stable linear telescopic action through fluid drive, which is used to drive the four-bar linkage to extend or retract the transmission mechanism 6.

[0044] The use of a rotary motor 9 and a telescopic cylinder / hydraulic cylinder to control rotation and linear displacement respectively improves the specialization and response speed of system control. The rotary motor 9 provides high-precision and easily controllable rotation, while the pneumatic or hydraulic actuator has strong thrust output and load-bearing capacity, improving the overall system's operating efficiency and adaptability.

[0045] In one possible implementation, the transmission mechanism 6 includes a transmission chain, a driving wheel, and a driven wheel.

[0046] The transmission mechanism 6 consists of a closed loop conveyor chain wound between a pair of driving and driven wheels. The driving wheels are connected to the motor output shaft to provide driving force, while the driven wheels maintain the tension of the transmission system through a tensioning device. The cardboard is placed on the conveyor chain and moves in a circular motion with the chain, realizing the horizontal conveying of the corrugated cardboard.

[0047] The conveyor chain features a simple structure and reliable operation, providing continuous and stable conveying capabilities. The active / driven wheel structure ensures consistent chain tension, effectively preventing slippage and conveyor deviation, thus improving the conveying efficiency and stability of corrugated cardboard. It is suitable for medium-to-high-speed, high-volume production line applications.

[0048] Instructions for use: When transferring corrugated cardboard from one stage of equipment to the next, the rotary motor 9 first drives the conveyor mechanism 6 towards the corrugated cardboard on the previous stage. Then, the extension displacement mechanism extends the conveyor mechanism 6 to the corrugated cardboard on the previous stage, fully loading the cardboard onto the transfer conveyor. After loading, the rotary motor 9 operates again, turning the conveyor mechanism 6 towards the next stage. The extension displacement mechanism then extends the conveyor mechanism 6 to the next stage, smoothly unloading the corrugated cardboard onto the next stage.

[0049] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
