Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cardboard box processing technology, specifically to an integrated device for cardboard box creasing and folding. 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, etc., and they come in various specifications and models. As an indispensable part of modern logistics, cardboard boxes bear the important responsibility of packaging, protecting products, and being aesthetically pleasing. The physical performance indicators of cardboard boxes become the basis for their quality assessment. The accuracy and reliability of test data require good testing environment conditions to ensure. Cardboard boxes go through steps such as cutting, creasing, folding, and fixing in shape during production. Cardboard boxes are generally creasing using a creasing device. Existing creasing devices apply mechanical pressure to the cardboard with a creasing knife to press creases into the cardboard, and then fold along the creases.

[0003] In the existing technology, since there is no device for positioning the cardboard, the cardboard is prone to tilting when it is creasing by the creasing knife, resulting in uneven creasing lines and affecting the quality of processing. Furthermore, after creasing, workers need to fold the lines, which is usually done manually, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an integrated cardboard creasing and folding device, which solves the problem in the prior art that the cardboard is prone to tilting when creasing by the creasing knife due to the lack of a device for positioning the cardboard, resulting in uneven creasing lines.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a carton creasing and folding integrated device is provided, including a workbench, a connecting frame fixedly connected to the upper center of the workbench, sliding grooves opened at both ends of the upper part of the workbench, a slider slidably connected inside the sliding groove, a clamping plate fixedly connected to the upper end of the slider, and a fixing plate fixedly connected to both ends of the lower part of the workbench.

[0006] The fixed plate has two sets of sliding rods fixedly connected inside, and the slider is slidably connected to the sliding rods. A positioning frame is fixedly connected to the lower center of the worktable, and a motor is fixedly connected to the upper end of the positioning frame.

[0007] According to the aforementioned integrated cardboard box creasing and folding device, the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to a gear, and the inner end of the slider is fixedly connected to a rack, with the rack and gear meshing with each other.

[0008] According to the aforementioned integrated cardboard creasing and folding device, a cylinder is fixedly connected to the upper center of the connecting frame, and a creasing plate is provided inward through the extension end of the cylinder.

[0009] According to the aforementioned integrated cardboard creasing and folding device, the workbench is fixedly connected to four supports at its lower ends.

[0010] According to the aforementioned integrated cardboard box creasing and folding device, an mounting plate is fixedly connected to the inner end of the bracket, and a cylinder is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting plate.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a carton creasing and folding integrated device, including a workbench 1, a connecting frame 6 fixedly connected to the upper middle part of the workbench 1, and sliding grooves 11 opened at both ends of the upper part of the workbench 1. A slider 3 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 11, and a clamping plate 7 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the slider 3. A fixing plate 13 is fixedly connected to both ends of the lower part of the workbench 1. The sliding grooves 11 and the slider 3 can drive the two pairs of clamping plates 7 to move relative to each other. The clamping plates 7 can restrict the two ends of the carton to prevent the carton from tilting during the creasing process.

[0024] Two sets of slide rods 12 are fixedly connected inside the fixed plate 13, and the slider 3 is slidably connected to the slide rods 12. A positioning frame 14 is fixedly connected to the lower center of the worktable 1, and a motor 15 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the positioning frame 14. By setting the slide rods 12, the slider 3 can be restricted to ensure the stable movement of the rack 18, and the clamping effect of the clamping plate 7 can also be increased.

[0025] The output end of the motor 15 is fixedly connected to the gear 16, and the inner end of the slider 3 is fixedly connected to the rack 18, and the rack 18 and the gear 16 mesh with each other. When the motor 15 is started, the gear 16 is driven to rotate. Under the action of meshing, the two racks 18 can be driven to move relative to each other. Under the action of the slide rod 12, the slide groove 11 and the slider 3, the two clamping plates 7 can be driven to move relative to each other, which restricts the two ends of the carton and prevents the carton from tilting during the creasing process.

[0026] A cylinder 5 is fixedly connected to the upper center of the connecting frame 6. The extended end of the cylinder 5 passes through the connecting frame 6 and is provided with a creasing plate 4. The four ends of the workbench 1 are fixedly connected to the bottom. When the upper cylinder 5 is started, the creasing plate 4 moves downward to creasing the carton. Before creasing, the creasing position of the carton is aligned with the creasing plate 4. The creasing plate 4 is bolted to the equipment and can be replaced according to different situations. It will not be described in detail here.

[0027] The inner end of the bracket 9 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 10, the upper end of the mounting plate 10 is fixedly connected to the cylinder 17, and the extension end of the cylinder 17 is fixedly connected to the top roller 2. The upper ends of the worktable 1 are both provided with slots 8. The top roller 2 is movably connected inside the slots 8. After the creasing is completed, the creasing plate 4 does not move. The cylinders 17 at both ends of the bottom are started, which drives the top roller 2 to move upward. The top roller 2 contacts the two ends of the carton, causing it to rotate and fold, producing the cardboard fold line. The creasing and folding line of the whole device is integrated, saving time and effort.

[0028] Working principle: In use, the cardboard box to be creased is laid flat on the workbench 1. The motor 15 is started, which drives the gear 16 to rotate. Under the action of meshing, the two racks 18 can move relative to each other. Under the action of the slide rod 12, the slide groove 11 and the slider 3, the two clamping plates 7 can move relative to each other, which restricts the two ends of the cardboard box and prevents the cardboard box from tilting during the creasing process. Then, the upper cylinder 5 is started to drive the creasing plate 4 to move downward to creasing the cardboard box. After the creasing is completed, the creasing plate 4 does not move. The lower cylinders 17 are started to drive the top roller 2 to move upward. The top roller 2 contacts the two ends of the cardboard box, causing it to rotate and fold, producing the cardboard fold line. The creasing and folding line of the whole device is integrated, which makes the subsequent cardboard box gluing more accurate and improves the qualified rate of cardboard box gluing.

[0029] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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.
