[0036] The film bonding assembly 1 includes a support platform 11 fixedly mounted on the packaging machine frame 7 and a detachable pressure plate 12 pressed onto the support platform 11. The packaging film 8 passes through the support platform 11 and the pressure plate 12. A connecting rod 13 is rotatably mounted on the side of the support platform 11. Two tape supports 14 are fixedly mounted on the side of the connecting rod 13. Tape 9 for bonding the two packaging films 8 is detachably pasted between the two tape supports 14.

[0037] An operating knob 15 is provided at the end of the connecting rod 13.

[0038] The limiting component 3 includes a support platform 31 fixedly mounted on the packaging machine frame 7, a guide plate 32 oscillatingly mounted on the side of the support platform 31, and two blocks 33 slidably mounted on the guide plate 32. The packaging film 8 passes through the guide plate 32 and the support platform 31. The guide plate 32 is provided with an elongated hole 321. The two blocks 33 pass through the guide plate 32 and contact the two sides of the packaging film 8.

[0039] The guide plate 32 is provided with supports 322 at both ends, and two guide rods 323 are provided between the two supports 322. The guide rods 323 pass through the stop blocks 33. A positive and negative screw 324 is rotatably provided between the two supports 322. The two stop blocks 33 are threadedly connected to the positive and negative screw 324 respectively. The two stop blocks 33 are slidably provided on the guide plate 32 through the positive and negative screw 324. A stop post 331 is provided at the end of the two stop blocks 33. The stop post 331 passes through the elongated hole 321 and contacts the edge of the packaging film 8. An operating handwheel 34 is provided at the end of the positive and negative screw 324.

[0040] It also includes a material basket 6 for holding the packaging film 8, which is located below the film pressing assembly 2.

[0041] Guide roller 1 71 and guide roller 2 72 are respectively provided on both sides of the support platform 11. The packaging film 8 passes around guide roller 1 71 and guide roller 2 72 respectively. Guide roller 1 71 and guide roller 2 72 are rotatably mounted on the packaging machine frame 7.

[0042] A guide roller 3 73 is provided on the side of the air expansion shaft 4, and the packaging film 8 is arranged around the guide roller 3 73.

[0043] The specific working process of this utility model:

[0044] The packaging film 8 on the air expansion shaft 4 passes sequentially between the guide roller 3 73, the guide roller 2 72, the support platform 11 of the film receiving mechanism and the pressure plate 12, then passes sequentially between the guide roller 1 71, the active roller 21 and the driven roller 22 of the film pressing assembly 2, and finally passes between the support platform 31 and the guide plate 32. It is then pulled out by the forward mechanism of the packaging machine. The packaging film 8 is unfolded under the action of stable traction force through the air expansion shaft 4, thus achieving stable feeding of the packaging film 8.

[0045] When there is a large amount of packaging film 8 on the air expansion shaft 4, the photoelectric sensor 5 detects the packaging film 8, and the packaging machine operates normally. When there is a small amount of packaging film 8 on the air expansion shaft 4, that is, when the packaging film 8 needs to be replaced, the photoelectric sensor 5 cannot detect the packaging film 8. At this time, the photoelectric sensor 5 transmits the signal to the electric cylinder 24 and the drive motor 23 respectively. The electric cylinder 24 extends and presses the driven roller 22 to press the packaging film 8 onto the drive roller 21. The drive motor 23 drives the drive roller 21 to rotate, so that the packaging film 8 is provided to the traction mechanism at a constant speed and tension. Then, the remaining packaging film 8 on the air expansion shaft 4 can be pulled out between the guide roller 71 and the driven roller 22 and placed in the material basket 6. Then, a new packaging film 8 is replaced on the air expansion shaft 4.

[0046] With the traction mechanism of the packaging machine running continuously, the first end of the new packaging film 8 is removed and passed around the guide roller 3 73 and guide roller 2 72 in sequence, then flipped onto the overlapping connecting rod 13. The connecting rod 13 is rotated by operating the knob 15, and then the tape 9 is pasted between the two tape supports 14, so that the adhesive side of the tape 9 faces the packaging film 8. Then the connecting rod 13 is rotated in the opposite direction so that the tape support 14 is placed on the carrier table 11. Then the first end of the new packaging film 8 is pasted to half of the tape 9. Then the tail end of the old packaging film 8 is aligned with the pattern of the new packaging film 8 and pasted onto the other half of the tape 9. Finally, the excess part of the tail end of the old packaging film 8 is cut off, and the two ends of the tape 9 are separated from the tape support 14. Then the pressure plate 12 is pressed onto the carrier table 11 to complete the entire film splicing operation. At this time, the traction mechanism of the packaging machine always pulls the packaging film 8 in the material basket 6 through the film pressing assembly 2, and will not affect the film splicing operation.

[0047] The active roller 21 and driven roller 22 of the film pressing assembly 2 generate a constant tension on the packaging film 8. A portion of the packaging film 8 is stored in the material basket 6, so that the film splicing assembly 1 of the packaging machine can perform film splicing operation without stopping the machine, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the packaging machine.

[0048] Furthermore, the adhesive tape 9 is supported by the tape support 14, which makes the tape 9 more evenly fixed. The film splicing operation of the new film and the old film is completed on the support table 11. The film splicing operation is convenient and quick, the pattern matching of the new film and the old film is more convenient, the film splicing effect is better, and the operating efficiency of the packaging machine is further improved.

[0049] When the packaging film 8 passes the support platform 31 and guide plate 32 of the limiting component 3, it is limited by the stop post 331 on the stop block 33, thereby preventing the packaging film 8 from deviating. If the width of the packaging film 8 changes, the two stop blocks 33 are moved away from or closer to each other by rotating the operating handwheel 34 under the action of the positive and negative screws 324, thereby changing the spacing of the stop post 331. This allows the limiting component 3 to adapt to the limiting of packaging films 8 of different widths. The limiting component 3 has a good limiting effect on packaging films 8 of different widths, preventing the packaging film 8 from deviating and improving the stability of the packaging machine operation.

[0050] The technical features of this utility model not described can be implemented by or by using existing technology, and will not be repeated here. Of course, the above description is not a limitation of this utility model, and this utility model is not limited to the examples above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of this utility model should also be within the protection scope of this utility model.
