Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of cardboard box packaging equipment, and in particular relates to an adaptive packaging equipment for cigarette cardboard boxes. Background Technology

[0002] Packaging and packaging equipment for cigarette cartons is a core piece of equipment in the automated production line of the tobacco industry. Its functions cover empty carton supply, cigarette carton positioning, packing, and sealing. With the increasing market demand for diversified cigarette packaging specifications (such as slim cigarettes, medium cigarettes, and irregularly shaped gift boxes), existing equipment has revealed a key deficiency of limited adaptability. Specifically, traditional equipment uses a fixed guiding mechanism and cavity size design, which can only adapt to a single specification of carton. When switching to different sizes (such as a difference in carton height > 20mm) or irregular structures (such as windowed or handle-type cartons), it is necessary to stop the machine to replace the mold or manually adjust key components, resulting in a decrease in production line efficiency (average changeover time ≥ 2 hours) and difficulty in ensuring adjustment accuracy. This leads to the technical problem of complicated adaptation and adjustment steps when using existing carton packaging equipment. Utility Model Content

[0039] The self-adaptive packaging equipment for cigarette cartons in this utility model is assembled from a feeding and positioning device 10, a carton unfolding and conveying device 20, and a positioning and loading device 30. The feeding and positioning device 10 corrects and positions the product to be loaded along its path during movement, ensuring that all products are neatly arranged for transport. The carton unfolding and conveying device 20 folds open the top covers of each moving carton to facilitate subsequent packaging. The positioning and loading device 30 can center-position products of different specifications and then grasp and pack them into the fully opened carton. During assembly, the discharge ends of both the feeding and positioning device 10 and the carton conveying device 21 extend into the positioning and loading device 30, with the center of the positioning and loading device 30... The positioning station is located between the feeding positioning device 10 and the carton unfolding conveyor 20.
