Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging and sorting technology, and in particular to a packaging device that can automatically sort empty boxes. Background Technology

[0002] Packaging equipment refers to equipment capable of completing all or part of the product and commodity packaging process. The packaging process includes major steps such as filling, wrapping, and sealing, as well as related pre- and post-packaging processes such as cleaning, stacking, and unpacking. In addition, packaging also includes processes such as measurement or stamping on the packaging. Using mechanized packaging can improve productivity, reduce labor intensity, meet the needs of large-scale production, and satisfy hygiene requirements.

[0003] During the packaging process, some empty boxes may be left unpackaged. Therefore, empty boxes need to be sorted on the production line. Traditional sorting equipment uses high-definition cameras to obtain information about the contents of the packaging boxes and then uses compressed air to blow the empty boxes off the production line. However, in actual use, falling empty boxes can affect normal operation and have certain shortcomings. To address this, we propose a packaging equipment that can automatically sort empty boxes. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a packaging device that can automatically sort empty boxes.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

Support legs are mounted on the bottom of the workbench, and a first conveyor belt device, a second conveyor belt device, and a turning mechanism are mounted on the top of the workbench. The first and second conveyor belt devices are arranged in a T-shape, and the turning mechanism is located between the first and second conveyor belt devices. A support frame is fixed to the first conveyor belt device, and a high-definition camera is mounted on the inner top of the support frame. A lifting mechanism is mounted on the top of the turning mechanism, and a vacuum suction cup is mounted on the bottom of the lifting mechanism.

[0007] Preferably, the steering mechanism includes a first housing fixed on the workbench, a first motor mounted on the side of the first housing, the output shaft of the first motor inserted into the interior of the first housing and connected to a first bevel gear, a rotating shaft rotatably connected inside the first housing, a second bevel gear fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft, the top of the rotating shaft penetrating the first housing and connected to a turntable, and a movable frame fixed to the top of the turntable.

[0008] Preferably, the first bevel gear and the second bevel gear are meshing transmissions, and the lifting mechanism is mounted on the movable frame.

[0009] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a second housing fixed to a movable frame, a threaded sleeve rotatably connected inside the second housing, a third bevel gear fixedly sleeved on the threaded sleeve, a threaded post threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve, a movable plate fixed to the bottom of the threaded post, a guide shaft fixed to one end of the top of the movable plate, the guide shaft passing through the movable frame and rotatably connected thereto, a second motor mounted on the side of the second housing, and the output shaft of the second motor inserted into the interior of the second housing and connected to a fourth bevel gear.

[0010] Preferably, the third bevel gear and the fourth bevel gear are meshed, and the vacuum suction cup is fixed to the bottom of the movable plate.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] This invention uses a first conveyor belt to transport packaging boxes and a high-definition camera to monitor whether the packaging boxes are empty. Once an empty box is detected, a turning mechanism, a lifting mechanism, and a vacuum suction cup are used to transport the empty box to a second conveyor belt, which then removes the empty packaging box. The overall structure of the device is simple, and the sorting efficiency and stability are very high. Attached Figure Description
