Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of folding machine technology, specifically to a folding machine for carton production. Background Technology

[0002] Cardboard boxes are the most widely used packaging products. Depending on the materials used, there are corrugated cardboard boxes, single-layer cardboard boxes, and various specifications and models. Three-layer and five-layer cardboard boxes are commonly used, while seven-layer boxes are less common. Each layer consists of linerboard, corrugated paper, core paper, and facing paper. Linerboard and facing paper are made of kraft paper or corrugated cardboard, while the core paper is made of corrugated paper. The colors and textures of different types of paper vary, and the paper produced by different manufacturers also differs. Cardboard boxes are typically used as wrapping materials for goods or as outer protective layers for items. During the production process, the cut boxes need to be folded. Since the sizes of goods vary, the required box volume usually changes according to the size of the goods. However, existing folding machines cannot be adjusted according to the actual box size during operation, resulting in poor flexibility. Furthermore, the lack of a fixing device for the cardboard box during folding makes it prone to shifting or warping during the folding process, affecting the folding quality. Utility Model Content

[0025] like Figures 1-8As shown, this utility model discloses a folding machine for carton production, comprising a base 1, a support platform 2, a folding mechanism 3, and a fixing mechanism 4. The support platform 2 is mounted on the base 1, and the folding mechanism 3 is mounted on the base 1. There are two sets of folding mechanisms 3, which are symmetrically located on both sides of the support platform 2. The fixing mechanism 4 is mounted on the support platform 2. The folding mechanism 3 includes a sliding seat 6, a folding assembly 7, and a pressing assembly 8. The base 1 is provided with a guide rail 5, and the sliding seat 6 is slidably mounted on the guide rail 5. The sliding seat 6 is provided with a mounting frame 9, and the folding assembly 7 is mounted on the mounting frame 9. The base 1 is provided with two sets of hydraulic cylinders 27, and the output shafts of the two sets of hydraulic cylinders 27 are respectively fixedly connected to the two sets of sliding seats 6.

[0026] The folding assembly 7 includes a cylinder 10, a folding plate 11, and a first guide rod 12. The cylinder 10 is mounted on the mounting frame 9, the folding plate 11 is mounted on the output shaft of the cylinder 10, the first guide rod 12 is mounted on the folding plate 11 and slides through the mounting frame 9, and the pressing assembly 8 is mounted on the folding plate 11.

[0027] The pressing assembly 8 includes a pressure plate 13, a second guide rod 14, and a first spring 15. The second guide rod 14 is slidably mounted on the folding plate 11, and the pressure plate 13 is mounted on the second guide rod 14. The two ends of the first spring 15 are respectively fixed to the folding plate 11 and the pressure plate 13. A first anti-slip pad 29 is provided at the bottom of the pressure plate 13.

[0028] The fixing mechanism 4 includes a bidirectional threaded rod 16, a fixed rod 17, a movable seat 18, and a fixing assembly 19. The bidirectional threaded rod 16 is rotatably mounted on the support platform 2, the fixed rod 17 is fixed on the support platform 2, the movable seat 18 is threadedly mounted on the bidirectional threaded rod 16 and slidably mounted on the fixed rod 17, and two sets of movable seats 18 are symmetrically arranged. Two sets of fixing assemblies 19 are also arranged, with the two sets of fixing assemblies 19 respectively mounted on the two sets of movable seats 18. A motor 28 is mounted on the support platform 2, and one end of the bidirectional threaded rod 16 is mounted on the output shaft of the motor 28.

[0029] The fixing assembly 19 includes an L-shaped bracket 22, a sliding rod 23, a fixing plate 24, a second spring 25, and a handle 26. The movable seat 18 is provided with a slider 20, and the support platform 2 is provided with a sliding groove 21. The slider 20 is slidably disposed in the sliding groove 21. The L-shaped bracket 22 is disposed on the slider 20. The sliding rod 23 is slidably disposed on the horizontal plate of the L-shaped bracket 22. The fixing plate 24 is disposed at the bottom of the sliding rod 23. The handle 26 is disposed at the top of the sliding rod 23. The second spring 25 is sleeved on the sliding rod 23. The two ends of the second spring 25 are respectively fixed to the fixing plate 24 and the horizontal plate of the L-shaped bracket 22. The bottom of the fixing plate 24 is provided with a second anti-slip pad 30.

[0030] In practical use, the distance between the two sets of fixing components 19 is adjusted according to the size of the carton. Adjustment is achieved by starting the motor 28, which drives the bidirectional threaded rod 16 to rotate. The bidirectional threaded rod 16 moves the two sets of moving seats 18 closer together or further apart, and the two sets of moving seats 18 move the two sets of L-shaped brackets 22 closer together or further apart, thus meeting the fixing requirements for cartons of different sizes. When folding the carton, lift the handle 26 upwards to raise the fixing plate 24 and compress the second spring 25. Then place the carton on the support platform 2, ensuring that both sides of the carton contact the vertical plates of the two sets of L-shaped brackets 22. Release the handle 26, allowing the fixing plate 24 to move downwards under the action of the second spring 25, pressing and fixing the carton to prevent movement during folding. The second anti-slip pad 30 increases the friction between the fixing plate 24 and the carton, improving the fixing effect. Two sets of hydraulic cylinders 27 can synchronously drive two sets of support platforms 2 to move closer or further apart, thereby driving two sets of folding mechanisms 3 to move closer or further apart, thus meeting the folding requirements of cartons of different sizes. When folding is required, simply activate cylinder 10, which drives the folding plate 11 to move downwards to complete the folding of the carton. During the downward movement of the folding plate 11, the pressing component 8 moves downwards synchronously, causing the pressure plate 13 to contact the carton first. Before folding, the pressure plate 13 presses down on the carton, thus preventing the carton from lifting during the folding process. The first anti-slip pad 29 increases the friction between the pressure plate 13 and the carton, improving the fixation effect on the carton. The above structure effectively improves the flexibility of the folding machine, better meets the folding requirements of cartons of different sizes, and better ensures the folding effect.

[0031] In summary, this solution uses two sets of hydraulic cylinders 27 to synchronously drive two sets of sliding seats 6 to move closer or further apart, thereby driving two sets of folding plates 11 to move closer or further apart. This can meet the folding requirements of cartons of different sizes and provide greater flexibility. This solution is equipped with a fixing mechanism 4, which can fix the cartons to prevent them from shifting during the folding process and meet the fixing requirements of cartons of different sizes. This solution is also equipped with a pressing component 8, which can press the edges of the cartons during folding to prevent them from warping.
