Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cartoning equipment, and in particular to a blood bag cartoning machine and cartoning system. Background Technology

[0002] Generally, bagged blood needs to be repackaged. The secondary packaging can be plastic bags or cardboard boxes. Using cardboard boxes to package blood bags makes it easier to transfer and transport them.

[0003] In the existing technology, linear automatic packaging machines are widely used in the packaging and processing of daily necessities, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food and other items. Structurally, linear automatic packaging machines include a linear moving mechanism, which has multiple processing stations in its moving direction. These processing stations can perform operations such as carton forming, boxing and sealing.

[0004] However, existing linear automatic packaging machines have a large horizontal footprint, high site requirements, and many processing stations, resulting in frequent start-stop cycles of the linear movement mechanism and low efficiency in blood bag packaging. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a blood bag boxing machine, which solves the technical problems of existing linear boxing machines having a large horizontal footprint and low boxing efficiency.

[0006] This utility model also proposes a cartoning system having the above-mentioned blood bag cartoning machine.

[0007] A blood bag boxing machine according to a first aspect of the present invention includes: a turntable having a working surface, the working surface being provided with a plurality of shaping components arranged circumferentially along the turntable, the shaping components being used to maintain the cardboard box in a box shape; a first sealing mechanism for inserting a flap with an opening on one side of the cardboard box into the interior of the cardboard box, the first sealing mechanism being located on the side of the turntable near the working surface and near the rotation axis of the turntable; a box-feeding mechanism for feeding blood bags into the interior of the cardboard box, the box-feeding mechanism being located radially outward of the turntable; and a second sealing mechanism for inserting a flap with an opening on the other side of the cardboard box into the interior of the cardboard box, the second sealing mechanism being located radially outward of the turntable.

[0008] A blood bag boxing machine according to a first aspect of the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0009] 1. This utility model sets up a turntable, on which one or more shaping components can be set, so that the shaping components can move with the turntable. The shaping components maintain the shape of the cardboard box and move the cardboard box to different work stations, thereby ensuring that the blood bag can be smoothly put into the cardboard box.

[0010] 2. By setting a first sealing mechanism, the turntable rotates at a certain angle, causing the cardboard box on the shaping component to move to the first sealing mechanism. The first sealing mechanism can insert the flap of the cardboard box into the inside of the cardboard box. Furthermore, the first sealing mechanism is arranged close to the central axis of the turntable, making the structure of the cartoning machine more compact and reducing the floor space occupied by the cartoning machine. In addition, the first sealing mechanism can complete the flap folding operation and flap insertion operation at the same station, reducing the number of times the turntable rotates.

[0011] 3. This utility model provides a box-in mechanism located on the radial outer side of the turntable. The box-in mechanism can receive blood bags from the outside. The turntable rotates at a certain angle, causing the cardboard box on the shaping component to move to the first sealing mechanism, which facilitates the box-in mechanism to send the blood bag into the cardboard box.

[0012] 4. By setting a second sealing mechanism, the present invention places the second sealing mechanism on the radial outer side of the turntable. This arrangement facilitates the second sealing mechanism to insert the flap of the other side opening of the paper box into the inside of the paper box. Furthermore, the second sealing mechanism can complete the flap folding operation and the flap insertion operation at the same workstation, reducing the number of times the turntable rotates.

[0013] 5. By setting up a first sealing mechanism, a box-in mechanism, and a second sealing mechanism, when the turntable is arranged horizontally, the box-in mechanism and the second sealing mechanism only need to be arranged on the outside of the turntable, which makes the horizontal footprint of the cartoning machine small. In addition, the cartoning machine has few processing stations and the number of turntable starts and stops is less. Thus, it solves the technical problems of large horizontal footprint and low cartoning efficiency of the existing linear cartoning machine.

[0014] A blood bag boxing machine according to a first aspect of the present invention further includes a hopper and a suction box mechanism, wherein the hopper and the suction box mechanism are axially distributed along the rotation axis of the turntable, the hopper is used to provide a flat paper box to the suction box mechanism, and the suction box mechanism is used to move the paper box into the shaping assembly.

[0015] The advantages of this invention are: by setting up a suction mechanism and a material hopper, the suction mechanism can move upwards towards the material outlet of the hopper to pick up flat cardboard boxes, and then move downwards away from the hopper to transfer the cardboard boxes into the shaping component. The suction mechanism and the shaping component work together to transform the cardboard box from a flat shape into a box shape, eliminating the need for manual forming and improving the efficiency of cardboard box forming.

[0016] In addition, by arranging the turntable horizontally and distributing the hopper and suction mechanism along the axis of rotation of the turntable, this arrangement does not occupy horizontal space and helps to reduce the floor space of the cartoning machine.

[0017] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a blood bag boxing machine includes a shaping component comprising two shaping plates arranged opposite to each other, forming a shaping cavity between the two shaping plates. The shaping cavity is used to accommodate a box-shaped paper box. The suction mechanism has at least one suction cup and a first power member that drives the at least one suction cup to move. The suction cup can move through the shaping cavity to pick up the paper box.

[0018] The advantages are: by setting two shaping plates, the paper box is restricted to the position of the opposite sides of the paper box. The paper box is restricted in the shaping cavity, so that the paper box maintains the shape of the box and ensures that the paper box will not return to its original flat state during the movement of the turntable. In addition, the shaping plate can be a vertical plate. The structure of the vertical plate is simple, which makes the shaping component easy to manufacture and has low manufacturing cost.

[0019] Furthermore, this utility model incorporates a suction cup and a first power component. The first power component drives the suction cup to move closer to the hopper. After the suction cup picks up the flat cardboard box, it moves closer to the shaping cavity. The flat cardboard box and the shaping plate come into contact, causing the cardboard box to gradually transform into a box shape.

[0020] It should be noted that there can be multiple suction cups. Using multiple suction cups to pick up the cardboard box avoids the problem of the cardboard box falling off due to the suction cups not being firmly attached during the cardboard box forming process. In addition, the first power component can be a cylinder, which is not limited here.

[0021] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a blood bag boxing machine includes a feeding mechanism comprising a feeding rack, a pusher movably disposed within the feeding rack, and a moving unit for moving the pusher. Blood bags are placed on the feeding rack, and the pusher is used to push the blood bags from the feeding rack into the inside of the box.

[0022] The advantages of this invention are: by setting up a material rack, a pusher, and a moving unit, blood bags from the outside can be placed on the material rack. The structure of the material rack can be a trough, which can limit the position of the blood bags. At the same time, the moving unit drives the pusher to move, and the pusher pushes the blood bags on the material rack into the cardboard box. There is no need to manually put the blood bags into the cardboard box, thus improving the efficiency of blood bag boxing.

[0023] A blood bag boxing machine according to a first aspect of the present invention further includes an abutting mechanism. The abutting mechanism includes a first fixing frame and an abutting plate disposed on the first fixing frame. On the working surface, the abutting plate is located on the side of the shaping component away from the boxing mechanism and the second sealing mechanism. The abutting plate is used to abut against the cardboard box to prevent the blood bag from sliding out of the cardboard box.

[0024] The advantages of this invention are: by setting a first fixing frame and an abutment plate, the abutment plate is connected to the first fixing frame, so that the abutment plate and the turntable rotate relative to each other. The turntable rotates at a certain angle, so that the shaping component passes through the abutment plate. The abutment plate can abut against the sealing of the paper box, preventing the blood bag from sliding out of the paper box when it is put into the paper box, and reducing the problem of poor blood bag packaging.

[0025] In addition, the abutment plate is located on the side of the shaping component away from the boxing mechanism and the second sealing mechanism. In this way, when the boxing mechanism puts the blood bag into the box, the abutment plate can abut against the side seal of the box, and when the second sealing mechanism inserts the folding tongue of the box into the box, the abutment plate can abut against the side seal of the box, thus preventing the blood bag from sliding out of the box due to the operation of the boxing mechanism and the second sealing mechanism.

[0026] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a blood bag boxing machine further includes a rejection mechanism, which is disposed on the radial outer side of the turntable. The rejection mechanism includes a detection component and a removal component. After the second sealing mechanism inserts the flap into the inside of the paper box, the detection component can detect the sealing status of the paper box on the shaping component, and the removal component can remove the paper box that failed to be sealed from the shaping component.

[0027] The advantage is that after the second sealing mechanism inserts the flap into the inside of the cardboard box, the turntable moves the cardboard box to the corresponding station of the rejection mechanism. The detection component detects the sealing status of the cardboard box on the shaping component. If the cardboard box fails to seal, the removal component removes the cardboard box that failed to seal from the shaping component. Thus, the cardboard box that failed to seal is automatically rejected, preventing defective products from flowing into the next process.

[0028] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a blood bag boxing machine is provided with a first limiting plate on the side of the shaping component away from the turntable. The first limiting plate is arranged between the first sealing mechanism, the boxing mechanism and the second sealing mechanism. The first limiting plate and the shaping component cooperate to limit the position of the paper box.

[0029] The advantage of this invention is that by setting a first limiting plate, which rotates relative to the turntable, the first limiting plate can restrict the position of the paper box when it passes through the first sealing mechanism, the box-in mechanism, and the second sealing mechanism, thus preventing the paper box from detaching from the shaping component due to the operation of the first sealing mechanism, the box-in mechanism, and the second sealing mechanism.

[0030] A blood bag boxing machine according to a first aspect of the present invention further includes a discharge mechanism disposed on the radially outer side of the turntable, the discharge mechanism being used to remove the cardboard box from inside the shaping assembly.

[0031] The advantages of this invention are: by setting up a discharge mechanism, the discharge mechanism can remove the sealed cardboard box from the shaping component and transport the cardboard box to the next process, eliminating the need for manual removal of the cardboard box from the shaping component and improving the automation level of the equipment.

[0032] A cartoning system according to a second aspect of the present invention includes a blood bag cartoning machine as described in any one of the above claims.

[0033] A cartoning system according to a second aspect embodiment of the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0034] This invention solves the technical problems of existing linear boxing machines, such as large horizontal footprint and low boxing efficiency, by setting up a blood bag boxing machine.

[0035] A cartoning system according to a second aspect of the present invention includes a labeling device and a sorting device. A blood bag cartoning machine is disposed between the labeling device and the sorting device. The labeling device can identify blood information, output corresponding labels and affix them to the surface of blood bags, and simultaneously provide blood bags to the blood bag cartoning machine. The sorting device can sort the cartons containing blood bags into a warehouse according to preset rules.

[0036] The advantage is that after the blood bag passes through the labeling device, which can identify the original barcode of the blood bag and obtain the blood information inside the blood bag, the label is printed and affixed to the surface of the blood bag according to the information. Then, the blood bag is transported to the boxing mechanism of the blood bag boxing machine, and the blood bag boxing machine performs the boxing operation on the blood bag.

[0037] Next, the cardboard boxes containing blood bags are conveyed to the adhesive sealing device and the laser device, which are located between the blood bag boxing machine and the sorting device. The adhesive sealing device can be one of the following: a tape sealing mechanism, a glue spraying mechanism, or a hot melt glue sealing mechanism. In this embodiment, the adhesive sealing device uses a tape sealing mechanism. The tape sealing mechanism uses a vacuum suction cup to pick up the tape on the sealing machine and move it to the cardboard box. Then, the tape is flattened by a flattening mechanism to make the opening of the box tightly sealed. The laser device burns the surface of the cardboard box and laser-prints the blood information (blood type, blood volume) onto the side of the blood box.

[0038] Next, the sorting device sorts the cardboard boxes containing blood bags into the warehouse according to preset rules. That is, the same blood type is loaded into the same blood basket. Finally, the whole basket is stored in the cold storage.

[0039] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0053] Reference Figure 1The present invention aims to provide an embodiment of a blood bag boxing machine and a boxing system.

[0054] A blood bag boxing machine according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a turntable 100, the turntable 100 having a working surface, and a plurality of shaping components 110 arranged circumferentially along the working surface of the turntable 100, the shaping components 110 being used to keep the paper box in a box shape.

[0055] It is understood that in this embodiment, by setting a turntable 100, one or more shaping components 110 can be set on the working surface of the turntable 100, so that the shaping components 110 can move with the turntable 100. The shaping components 110 are used to maintain the shape of the paper box and move the paper box to different work stations, thereby ensuring that the blood bag can be successfully put into the paper box.

[0056] In this embodiment, the turntable 100 can be arranged horizontally, that is, the rotation axis of the turntable 100 is consistent with the vertical direction. In some other embodiments, the turntable 100 can also be arranged vertically, that is, the rotation axis of the turntable 100 is consistent with the horizontal direction.

[0057] In addition, the turntable 100 can be driven by a cam divider, and the driving method of the turntable 100 is not specifically limited here.

[0058] A blood bag boxing machine 340 according to an embodiment of this utility model, refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 3 It also includes a hopper 240 and a box-feeding mechanism 120, which are axially distributed along the rotation axis of the turntable 100. The hopper 240 is used to provide a flat paper box to the box-feeding mechanism 120, and the box-feeding mechanism 120 is used to move the paper box into the shaping assembly 110.

[0059] Specifically, when the turntable 100 of this embodiment is arranged horizontally, the suction box mechanism 120 is located below the shaping component 110, and the suction box mechanism 120 can move up and down.

[0060] It is understood that in this embodiment, by setting up a suction mechanism 120 and a material hopper 240, the suction mechanism 120 can move upwards towards the discharge port of the material hopper 240 to pick up flat cardboard boxes, and the suction mechanism 120 can move downwards away from the material hopper 240 to transfer the cardboard box into the shaping component 110. The suction mechanism 120 and the shaping component 110 work together to transform the cardboard box from a flat shape into a box shape, eliminating the need for manual forming and improving the efficiency of cardboard box forming.

[0061] In addition, by arranging the turntable 100 horizontally, and distributing the hopper 240 and the box suction mechanism 120 along the axial direction of the rotation axis of the turntable 100, this arrangement does not occupy horizontal space, which helps to reduce the floor space of the cartoning machine.

[0062] In a further embodiment of this utility model, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The shaping assembly 110 includes two shaping plates 160, which are arranged opposite to each other and form a shaping cavity 170 between them. The shaping cavity 170 is used to accommodate a box-shaped paper box. The suction mechanism 120 has at least one suction cup 280 and a first power member 290 that drives the at least one suction cup 280 to move. The suction cup 280 can move through the shaping cavity 170 to pick up the paper box.

[0063] It is understood that in this embodiment, by setting two shaping plates 160, the position of the paper box on both sides is restricted by the two shaping plates 160. The paper box is restricted within the shaping cavity 170, so that the paper box maintains the box shape and ensures that the paper box will not return to its original flat state during the movement of the turntable 100. In addition, the shaping plate 160 can be a vertical plate. The structure of the vertical plate is simple, which makes the shaping component 110 easy to manufacture and has low manufacturing cost.

[0064] Furthermore, by setting up a suction cup 280 and a first power component 290, the first power component 290 drives the suction cup 280 to move closer to the material bin 240. After the suction cup 280 picks up the flat cardboard box, it moves closer to the shaping cavity 170. The flat cardboard box and the shaping plate 160 come into contact, so that the cardboard box gradually becomes a box shape.

[0065] It should be noted that there can be multiple suction cups 280. Using multiple suction cups 280 to pick up the cardboard box avoids the problem of the cardboard box falling off due to the suction cups 280 not being firmly attached during the cardboard box forming process. In addition, the first power component 290 can be a cylinder, which is not limited here.

[0066] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the hopper 240 has at least one compartment 250, which accommodates stacked flat cardboard boxes.

[0067] It is understood that in this embodiment, multiple compartments 250 can be provided, and the multiple compartments 250 are arranged in a circular manner. A rotating mechanism can be used to drive the multiple compartments 250 to rotate, so that each compartment 250 can provide a flat cardboard box to the suction box mechanism 120. In addition, the multiple compartments 250 can hold different types of cardboard boxes, corresponding to blood bags of different blood types. During the packaging of blood bags, according to the blood type of the blood bag to be packaged, the compartment 250 of the corresponding blood type cardboard box is controlled to rotate above the shaping component, so that the suction box mechanism can pick up the corresponding type of cardboard box.

[0068] In addition, in some other embodiments, the multiple compartments 250 can also be arranged in a straight line side by side. A linear motion mechanism can be used to drive the multiple compartments 250 to move horizontally, so that each compartment 250 can provide a flat cardboard box to the suction box mechanism 120. Furthermore, the multiple compartments 250 can hold different types of cardboard boxes, corresponding to blood bags of different blood types. During the packaging of blood bags, according to the blood type of the blood bag to be packaged, the compartment 250 of the corresponding blood type cardboard box is controlled to rotate above the shaping component, so that the suction box mechanism can pick up the corresponding type of cardboard box.

[0069] A blood bag boxing machine 340 according to an embodiment of the present invention further includes a first sealing mechanism 130. The first sealing mechanism 130 is used to insert the flap of the opening on one side of the paper box into the inside of the paper box.

[0070] It is understood that in this embodiment, by setting a first sealing mechanism 130, the turntable 100 rotates at a certain angle, causing the paper box on the shaping component 110 to move to the first sealing mechanism 130. The first sealing mechanism 130 can insert the flap of the paper box opening on one side into the inside of the paper box. Furthermore, the first sealing mechanism 130 is arranged close to the central axis of the turntable 100, making the structure of the cartoning machine more compact and helping to reduce the floor space occupied by the cartoning machine. In addition, the first sealing mechanism 130 can complete the flap folding operation and flap insertion operation at the same station, reducing the number of times the turntable 100 rotates.

[0071] A blood bag boxing machine 340 according to an embodiment of the present invention further includes a boxing mechanism 140, which is used to feed blood bags into the inside of a paper box. The boxing mechanism 140 is disposed on the radial outer side of the turntable 100.

[0072] It is understood that in this embodiment, by setting the box-in mechanism 140, the box-in mechanism 140 is set on the radial outer side of the turntable 100. The box-in mechanism 140 can receive blood bags from the outside. The turntable 100 rotates at a certain angle, so that the paper box on the shaping component 110 moves to the first sealing mechanism 130, which makes it easier for the box-in mechanism 140 to send the blood bag into the paper box.

[0073] In some embodiments of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 2 The boxing mechanism 140 includes a material rack 180, a pusher 190 movably disposed within the material rack 180, and a moving unit 200 for moving the pusher 190. Blood bags are placed on the material rack 180, and the pusher 190 is used to push the blood bags from the material rack 180 into the inside of the cardboard box.

[0074] It is understood that in this embodiment, by setting up a material rack 180, a pusher 190, and a moving unit 200, blood bags from the outside can be placed on the material rack 180. The material rack 180 can be in the form of a trough, which can limit the position of the blood bags. At the same time, the moving unit 200 drives the pusher 190 to move, and the pusher 190 pushes the blood bags on the material rack 180 into the cardboard box. There is no need for manual loading of blood bags into the cardboard box, thus improving the efficiency of blood bag boxing.

[0075] It should be noted that the moving unit 200 can be a linear motor module, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0076] A blood bag boxing machine 340 according to an embodiment of the present invention further includes a second sealing mechanism 150, which is used to insert the flap of the other side opening of the paper box into the inside of the paper box. The second sealing mechanism 150 is disposed on the radial outer side of the turntable 100.

[0077] It is understood that in this embodiment, by setting the second sealing mechanism 150 and placing it on the radial outer side of the turntable 100, the second sealing mechanism 150 can easily insert the flap of the other side opening of the paper box into the inside of the paper box. Furthermore, the second sealing mechanism 150 can complete the flap folding operation and the flap insertion operation at the same workstation, reducing the number of times the turntable 100 rotates.

[0078] In some embodiments of this utility model, a contacting mechanism is also included. The contacting mechanism includes a first fixing frame 210 and a contacting plate 220 disposed on the first fixing frame 210. On the working surface, the contacting plate 220 is located on the side of the shaping component 110 away from the boxing mechanism 140 and the second sealing mechanism 150. The contacting plate 220 is used to contact the paper box to prevent the blood bag from sliding out of the paper box.

[0079] It is understood that in this embodiment, by setting a first fixing frame 210 and an abutment plate 220, the abutment plate 220 is connected to the first fixing frame 210, so that the abutment plate 220 rotates relative to the turntable 100. The turntable 100 rotates at a certain angle, so that the shaping component 110 passes through the abutment plate 220. The abutment plate 220 can abut against the sealing of the paper box, preventing the blood bag from sliding out of the paper box when it is put into the paper box, and reducing poor blood bag packaging.

[0080] Specifically, the abutment plate 220 is located on the side of the shaping component 110 away from the boxing mechanism 140 and the second sealing mechanism 150. In this way, when the boxing mechanism 140 puts the blood bag into the paper box, the abutment plate 220 can abut against the side seal of the paper box, and when the second sealing mechanism 150 inserts the flap of the paper box into the paper box, the abutment plate 220 can abut against the side seal of the paper box, thus preventing the blood bag from sliding out of the paper box due to the operation of the boxing mechanism 140 and the second sealing mechanism 150.

[0081] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the abutment plate 220 extends in an arc shape with the rotation axis of the turntable 100 as the center.

[0082] It is understood that in this embodiment, the abutment plate 220 extends in an arc shape with the rotation axis of the turntable 100 as the center. The abutment plate 220 is arc-shaped, that is, the abutment plate 220 extends along the moving trajectory of the carton, so as to avoid damaging the carton.

[0083] In some embodiments of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 1 The shaping component 110 is provided with a first limiting plate 230 on the side away from the turntable 100. The first limiting plate 230 is arranged between the first sealing mechanism 130, the box-in mechanism 140 and the second sealing mechanism 150. The first limiting plate 230 and the shaping component 110 cooperate to limit the position of the paper box.

[0084] It is understood that in this embodiment, by setting a first limiting plate 230, the first limiting plate 230 and the turntable 100 rotate relative to each other. The first limiting plate 230 covers the shaping component 110 at the first sealing mechanism 130, the box-in mechanism 140 and the second sealing mechanism 150. Furthermore, the distance between the first limiting plate 230 and the turntable 100 is greater than the thickness of the paper box. When the paper box passes through the first sealing mechanism 130, the box-in mechanism 140 and the second sealing mechanism 150, the first limiting plate 230 and the turntable 100 can restrict two opposite sides of the paper box. At the same time, the shaping component 110 restricts the other two opposite sides of the paper box, preventing the paper box from detaching from the shaping component 110 due to the operation of the first sealing mechanism 130, the box-in mechanism 140 and the second sealing mechanism 150.

[0085] In some embodiments of this utility model, a rejection mechanism 370 is also included. The rejection mechanism 370 is disposed on the radial outer side of the turntable 100. The rejection mechanism 370 includes a detection component and a removal component. After the second sealing mechanism 150 inserts the flap into the inside of the paper box, the detection component can detect the sealing status of the paper box on the shaping component 110, and the removal component can remove the paper box that failed to be sealed from the shaping component 110.

[0086] Understandably, after the second sealing mechanism 150 inserts the flap into the inside of the cardboard box, the turntable moves the cardboard box to the corresponding station of the rejection mechanism 370. The detection component detects the sealing status of the cardboard box on the shaping component 110. If the cardboard box fails to seal, for example, if the flap is not inserted into the inside of the cardboard box, the removal component removes the cardboard box that failed to seal from the shaping component 110. Thus, the cardboard box that failed to seal is automatically rejected, preventing defective products from flowing into the next process.

[0087] Specifically, the detection component can be a photoelectric sensor, which detects the sealing status of the cardboard box on the shaping component 110. The photoelectric sensor's detection light is set to be parallel to the plane where the cardboard box flap is inserted into the inside of the cardboard box. When the flap is not fully inserted into the inside of the cardboard box, the photoelectric sensor's detection light is blocked by the flap, thus detecting a sealing failure.

[0088] The removal component can be similar in structure to the discharge mechanism 260 described below, removing defective cardboard boxes and allowing them to fall into the recycling bin.

[0089] A blood bag boxing machine 340 according to an embodiment of the present invention further includes a discharge mechanism 260, which is disposed on the radial outer side of the turntable 100 and is used to remove the paper box from the shaping component 110.

[0090] It is understood that by setting up the discharge mechanism 260 in this embodiment, the discharge mechanism 260 can take out the sealed cardboard box from inside the shaping component 110 and transport the cardboard box to the next process, without the need for manual removal of the cardboard box from the shaping component 110, thereby improving the automation level of the equipment.

[0091] In some embodiments of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 5 The discharge mechanism 260 includes a translation frame 300, a hook 310 elastically disposed on the translation frame 300, and a second power component 320 that drives the translation frame 300 to move. The hook 310 can move into and out of the shaping component 110 to pull out the cardboard box. A second limiting plate 270 is provided on the side of the shaping component 110 away from the hook 310.

[0092] Specifically, the translation frame 300 and the hook 310 are hinged together, and the translation frame 300 and the hook 310 are connected by a spring 330. The second power component 320 can be a cylinder. Therefore, when the hook 310 moves into the shaping component 110, under the action of the spring 330, the hook 310 elastically abuts against the side wall of the paper box. The second limiting plate 270 is used to abut against the paper box to prevent the paper box from moving away from the hook 310, thereby ensuring that the hook 310 can smoothly remove the paper box.

[0093] In other embodiments, the discharging mechanism 260 may also be a pusher, with the pusher positioned above the turntable 100. A power component drives the pusher to move, pushing the cardboard box out of the shaping assembly 110. Alternatively, the discharging mechanism 260 may be a robotic arm, which removes the cardboard box from inside the shaping assembly 110. The discharging mechanism 260 may also take other forms to remove the sealed cardboard box from inside the shaping assembly 110, which are not limited here.

[0094] In some embodiments of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The suction box mechanism 120, the first sealing box mechanism 130, the box feeding mechanism 140, the second sealing box mechanism 150, and the discharge mechanism 260 are arranged sequentially along the rotation direction of the turntable 100.

[0095] Understandably, the turntable 100 moves the cardboard box sequentially to the suction mechanism 120, the first sealing mechanism 130, the box insertion mechanism 140, the second sealing mechanism 150, the rejection mechanism 370, and the discharge mechanism 260. This arrangement of the suction mechanism 120, the first sealing mechanism 130, the box insertion mechanism 140, the second sealing mechanism 150, and the discharge mechanism 260 helps to reduce defects when blood bags are packed into cardboard boxes.

[0096] This utility model also proposes a cartoning system, including the blood bag cartoning machine 340 described above.

[0097] It is understood that by setting up a blood bag boxing machine 340 in this embodiment, which includes a first sealing mechanism 130, a boxing inlet mechanism 140, and a second sealing mechanism 150, the boxing machine has a small horizontal footprint and fewer processing stations, and the turntable 100 has fewer start-stop cycles. This solves the technical problems of large horizontal footprint and low boxing efficiency of existing linear boxing machines.

[0098] In some embodiments of this utility model, reference is made to Figure 6 A cartoning system also includes a labeling device 350 and a sorting device 360. A blood bag cartoning machine 340 is provided between the labeling device 350 and the sorting device 360. The labeling device 350 can identify blood information, output corresponding labels and affix them to the surface of the blood bag, and simultaneously provide blood bags to the blood bag cartoning machine 340. The sorting device 360 ​​can sort the cartons containing blood bags into the warehouse according to preset rules.

[0099] Understandably, after the blood bag passes through the labeling device 350, which can identify the original barcode of the blood bag and obtain the blood information inside the blood bag, the label is printed and affixed to the surface of the blood bag according to the information. Then, the blood bag is transported to the boxing mechanism 140 of the blood bag boxing machine 340, where the blood bag boxing machine 340 performs the boxing operation on the blood bag.

[0100] Next, the cardboard boxes containing blood bags are conveyed to the adhesive sealing device and the laser device, which are located between the blood bag boxing machine 340 and the sorting device 360. The adhesive sealing device can be one of the following: a tape sealing mechanism, a glue spraying mechanism, or a hot melt glue sealing mechanism. In this embodiment, the adhesive sealing device uses a tape sealing mechanism. The tape sealing mechanism uses a vacuum suction cup to pick up the tape on the sealing machine and move it to the cardboard box. Then, the tape is flattened by a flattening mechanism to make the opening of the box tightly sealed. The laser device burns the surface of the cardboard box and lasers the blood information (blood type, blood volume) onto the side of the blood box.

[0101] Next, the sorting device 360 ​​sorts the cardboard boxes containing blood bags into the warehouse according to preset rules. That is, the same blood type is loaded into the same blood basket. Finally, the whole basket is stored in the cold storage.

However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
