[0034] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 5 This application will be described in further detail.

[0035] This application discloses a paper container bottom sealing device.

[0036] Example 1

[0037] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a body 1, which is connected to a sleeve 2, a bottom support mechanism 3, and an electromagnetic induction heater 4. The sleeve 2 is on which the cup body 5 rests, and the bottom support mechanism 3 supports the cup bottom 6. The bottom support mechanism 3 and the sleeve 2 are movable relative to each other, allowing the cup bottom 6 to be placed within the cup body 5. The electromagnetic induction heater 4 and the sleeve 2 are also movable relative to each other, providing pressure and heating to weld the surface coatings of the cup body 5 and the cup bottom 6. Therefore, energy consumption and cost can be significantly reduced, and the sealing process of paper containers is fast and reliable.

[0038] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the machine body 1 can be a machine base for manufacturing paper containers (which may include the manufacturing of the cup body 5 and the cup bottom 6, or other mechanisms or devices in the paper container manufacturing process), or a part for installing at least one of the sleeve 2, the bottom support mechanism 3, and the electromagnetic induction heater 4 (which may include the machine body, the ground, the wall, or other fixed foundation). The sleeve 2 has at least a metal layer on its outer surface, which is made of metal material, and the sleeve 2 as a whole may also be made of metal material. The electromagnetic field generated by the electromagnetic induction heater 4 can effectively heat the metal material, thereby efficiently fusing the surface coating, improving heating efficiency and shortening heating time, and providing uniform heating and excellent bottom sealing quality.

[0039] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the base support mechanism 3 includes a drive component 31 mounted on the machine body 1 and a support portion 32 connected to the drive component 31. The drive component 31 can be an electric cylinder, and the support portion 32 is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric cylinder. The support portion 32 supports the cup bottom 6, and the drive component 31 can drive the support portion 32 to move relative to the sleeve 2, so that the cup bottom 6 can be moved into and supported in the cup body 5, which is beneficial to the stability and yield of the subsequent heating and welding process of the surface coating of the cup body 5 and the cup bottom 6.

[0040] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the electromagnetic induction heater 4 is, for example, a high-frequency heater. This high-frequency heater provides more efficient and uniform heating to the surface coating, allowing for precise control of the welding depth, strengthening the bottom sealing bond, preventing excessive heating or carbonization of the paper, and improving water resistance and structural strength. Specifically, the electromagnetic induction heater 4 includes a moving mechanism 41 mounted on the body 1 and an electromagnetic induction heating head 42 connected to the moving mechanism 41. The moving mechanism 41 can move the electromagnetic induction heating head 42 to the desired bottom sealing position. The electromagnetic induction heating head 42 heats and welds the surface coatings of the cup body 5 and the cup bottom 6, enabling a fast and reliable bottom sealing process. In this embodiment, the electromagnetic induction heating head 42 is located radially outside the bottom support mechanism 3. The moving mechanism 41 can move the electromagnetic induction heating head 42 towards the bottom support mechanism 3, so that the electromagnetic induction heating head 42 clamps the cup body 5 and the cup bottom 6 within the bottom support mechanism 3, simultaneously applying uniform pressure to ensure a reliable weld and good seal. Preferably, the moving mechanism 41 can also drive the electromagnetic induction heating head 42 to move along the circumference of the bottom support mechanism 3. For example, the moving mechanism 41 can also drive the electromagnetic induction heating head 42 to move to at least three welding corners in the circumference of the bottom support mechanism 3 to achieve full circumferential bottom sealing welding (the welding part may also have some overlap), avoid missing welding dead corners, and improve sealing integrity and process reliability.

[0041] The implementation principle of the paper container bottom sealing device in Embodiment 1 of this application is as follows:

[0042] The cooperation between the support part 32 and the drive part 31 allows the cup bottom 6 to be moved into and supported in the cup body 5. The moving mechanism 41 can drive the electromagnetic induction heating head 42 to move to the required bottom sealing position. The electromagnetic induction heating head 42 heats and welds the surface coating of the cup body 5 and the cup bottom 6, enabling the bottom sealing process to be carried out quickly and reliably.

[0043] Example 2

[0044] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that, in combination with Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the bottom support mechanism 3 also includes an outer ring member 33, the driving member 31 is a spreading member 311, and the bearing part 32 includes multiple outer support members 321 arranged around the spreading member 311. Multiple electromagnetic induction heating heads 42 are respectively disposed on the multiple outer support members 321, with each electromagnetic induction heating head 42 corresponding to one of the outer support members 321. The spreading member 311 can move and squeeze the multiple outer support members 321 to move radially away from each other, so that the multiple electromagnetic induction heating heads 42 and the outer ring member 33 clamp the cup body 5 and the cup bottom 6, enabling simultaneous multi-point heating and strengthening the stability of the bottom sealing. Preferably, the moving mechanism 41 can also drive the electromagnetic induction heating heads 42 to move along the circumference of the bottom support mechanism 3. In detail, the supporting member 311 has multiple extrusion ramps 3111, and each outer support member 321 has a sliding ramp 3211. The sliding ramp 3211 abuts against the extrusion ramp 3111, and each outer support member 321 can automatically slide under the extrusion of the supporting member 311 to achieve expansion and precise positioning, simplify the mechanism structure and improve the service life.

[0045] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
