Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of dispensing device technology, and more specifically, it relates to a dispensing device for quantitatively dispensing packaging materials. Background Technology

[0002] In television production lines, packaging boxes for television sets are required. These boxes typically use automated or semi-automatic equipment or systems to precisely deliver packaging materials to designated workstations according to preset programs and positions. Their core function is to achieve efficient material supply, precise positioning, and dynamic adjustment to meet the packaging needs of different products, thereby improving production efficiency and consistency.

[0003] Based on existing technology, it has been found that existing dispensing devices typically use folded cardboard boxes, which require manual unfolding after dispensing, resulting in poor work efficiency. Furthermore, there is no structure to assist in shaping the paper. In addition, existing dispensing devices use vacuum suction cups to adsorb cardboard boxes. If the vacuum pump malfunctions and the suction cups fail to adsorb, the cardboard boxes may fall, posing a significant safety hazard. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a quantitative dispensing device for packaging materials. This addresses the issues of existing dispensing devices where cardboard boxes are typically folded and require manual unfolding after dispensing, resulting in poor work efficiency. Furthermore, these devices lack a structure to assist in shaping the paper. Additionally, existing dispensing devices rely on vacuum suction cups to adsorb the cardboard boxes, and if the vacuum pump malfunctions, the suction cups fail, causing the cardboard boxes to fall and posing a significant safety hazard.

[0005] This utility model discloses a dispensing device for quantitatively dispensing packaging materials, which is achieved through the following specific technical means:

[0006] A dispensing device for quantitatively dispensing packaging materials includes a driving mechanism, an adsorption mechanism, an installation mechanism, and a moving mechanism;

[0007] An adsorption mechanism is provided on the driving mechanism; the mounting mechanism is provided on both sides of the driving mechanism; and the moving mechanism is provided on the mounting mechanism.

[0008] The driving mechanism includes: a main body, on which an electric telescopic rod is provided; and a connecting rod is fixedly provided between the main bodies;

[0009] The adsorption mechanism includes: a movable block connected to the main body via an electric telescopic rod; the movable block being slidably mounted on a connecting rod; the bottom of the movable block being connected to a mounting frame via an electric telescopic rod; a vacuum pump being mounted on the mounting frame; and a suction cup being mounted on the mounting frame.

[0010] The installation mechanism includes: a fixing frame, which is fixedly installed on both sides of the main body; a support member is provided at the bottom of the fixing frame; and an installation rod is fixedly provided between the support members.

[0011] The moving mechanism includes a moving component, which is slidably mounted on a mounting rod.

[0012] Furthermore, the mounting bracket is connected to the vacuum pump and the suction cups via internal tubing; the mounting bracket is equipped with a solenoid valve; and there are a total of five sets of suction cups.

[0013] Furthermore, a motor is fixedly mounted on the support member; the support member is located at the bottom of the main body.

[0014] Furthermore, the mounting mechanism also includes: a screw;

[0015] The screw is connected to the motor output shaft on the support; a movable part is provided on the screw.

[0016] Furthermore, the movable component has an arc-shaped side; the movable component is disposed on both sides of the mounting frame; and the movable component has upper and lower layers.

[0017] Furthermore, the moving mechanism also includes: a clamping plate;

[0018] The clamping plate is located at the bottom of the moving part; there are two sets of clamping plates.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. This device includes a screw and a moving part. The screw is connected to a motor on the support, while the moving part is slidably mounted on the mounting rod. During use, the electric telescopic rod at the bottom of the moving block extends and retracts, aligning the mounting frame with the carton. The electric telescopic rod on the main body moves the moving block on the connecting rod, which in turn moves the mounting frame and suction cup, bringing the suction cup into contact with the carton surface. The vacuum pump is controlled from the back end, which then picks up the carton using the suction cup. The electric telescopic rod on the main body retracts and moves downward via the electric telescopic rod on the moving block. The motor on one side drives the screw to rotate, causing the moving part to move on the mounting rod. As the carton falls, the folded side of the carton contacts the curved edge on the moving part, allowing the carton to form along the fold seam. This eliminates the need for manual operation, improving work efficiency. Furthermore, the screw adjustment function can accommodate cartons of different sizes.

[0021] 2. In this device, a clamping plate is installed. The clamping plate is fixed at the bottom of the moving part. In use, another set of motors drives the screw to rotate, which moves the moving part on the mounting rod. The clamping plate then contacts both sides of the carton, providing auxiliary clamping and fixing of the carton. This provides a double fixing effect, preventing the carton from falling off due to vacuum pump failure and causing safety hazards. The force of the electric telescopic rod of the moving block when it extends and retracts is greater than the clamping force of the clamping plate, causing the carton to move downwards through the mounting frame without affecting the feeding of the carton.

[0028] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0029] Example:

[0030] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 4 As shown:

[0031] This utility model provides a dispensing device for quantitatively dispensing packaging materials, including a driving mechanism 1, an adsorption mechanism 2, an installation mechanism 3, and a moving mechanism 4;

[0032] The drive mechanism 1 is equipped with an adsorption mechanism 2; the mounting mechanism 3 is located on both sides of the drive mechanism 1; and the moving mechanism 4 is located on the mounting mechanism 3.

[0033] The drive mechanism 1 includes: a main body 101, on which an electric telescopic rod is provided; a connecting rod 102 is fixedly provided between the main bodies 101; the electric telescopic rod on the main body 101 drives the moving block 201 to move on the connecting rod 102, thereby causing the mounting frame 202 and suction cup 203 to contact the carton, which is controlled by the background program. The positioning of the carton is achieved by a vision sensor and the signal is transmitted to the background control device. This is a conventional method in the field and will not be described in detail.

[0034] The adsorption mechanism 2 includes: a movable block 201, which is connected to the main body 101 via an electric telescopic rod; the movable block 201 is slidably mounted on the connecting rod 102; the bottom of the movable block 201 is connected to the mounting frame 202 via the electric telescopic rod; a vacuum pump is installed on the mounting frame 202; a suction cup 203 is installed on the mounting frame 202; the movable block 201 is used to control the electric telescopic rod to move the mounting frame 202 via a background program, thereby achieving the feeding effect, while the mounting frame 202 drives the suction cup 203 via the vacuum pump to adsorb the cardboard box, and the solenoid valve can be controlled by the background to exhaust the air, so that the cardboard box can be detached from the suction cup 203 to complete the feeding. The suction cup 203 can only adsorb one cardboard box at a time, achieving quantitative feeding.

[0035] The mounting mechanism 3 includes: a fixing frame 301, which is fixedly installed on both sides of the main body 101; a support member 302 is provided at the bottom of the fixing frame 301; and a mounting rod 303 is fixedly provided between the support members 302. The fixing frame 301 is used to install the movable part 401 by being located on both sides of the main body 101, so as to avoid the wrong order of the carton placement and to allow the carton to be unfolded on both sides.

[0036] The moving mechanism 4 includes a moving part 401, which is slidably mounted on the mounting rod 303.

[0037] Among them, such as Figure 2 As shown, the mounting bracket 202 is connected to the vacuum pump and the suction cup 203 through internal pipes; the mounting bracket 202 is equipped with a solenoid valve; and there are five sets of suction cups 203.

[0038] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, a motor is fixedly mounted on the support member 302; the support member 302 is located at the bottom of the main body 101; the support member 302 here is used to drive the screw 304 to rotate via the motor.

[0039] Among them, such as Figure 3As shown, the mounting mechanism 3 also includes: a screw 304; the screw 304 is connected to the motor output shaft on the support member 302; a movable member 401 is provided on the screw 304; the screw 304 is used to rotate by the motor on the support member 302, thereby driving the movable member 401 to move on the mounting rod 303, so as to assist in the forming of cartons of different sizes.

[0040] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, the movable part 401 has an arc-shaped side; the movable part 401 is located on both sides of the mounting frame 202; the movable part 401 has two layers, upper and lower; the movable part 401 is used to make its side arc-shaped so that it can contact the side of the carton, thereby squeezing the carton as it moves, so that the carton is shaped along the fold seam.

[0041] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, the moving mechanism 4 also includes: a clamping plate 402; the clamping plate 402 is located at the bottom of the moving part 401; there are two sets of clamping plates 402; the clamping plate 402 here is used to move by the moving part 401 on the side that does not contact the carton, and then the two sets of clamping plates 402 work together to assist in clamping the carton, thus providing a double fixing effect to prevent the carton from falling off. The clamping force here is greater than the weight of the carton, which can fix the carton in place. The pushing force of the electric telescopic rod is greater than the clamping force of the clamping plate 402, so the electric telescopic rod can continue to drive the mounting frame 202 to move downward to complete the feeding of the carton. When picking up the carton, the motor drives the screw to rotate through the background control, so that the clamping plate 402 disengages from the carton, and the worker can easily remove the carton.

[0042] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:

[0043] In this invention, when using the device, the electric telescopic rod at the bottom of the movable block 201 extends and retracts, causing the mounting frame 202 to correspond with the carton. The electric telescopic rod on the main body 101 drives the movable block 201 to move on the connecting rod 102, which in turn drives the mounting frame 202 and the suction cup 203 to move, causing the suction cup 203 to contact the surface of the carton. The vacuum pump is controlled by the back end, which then uses the suction cup 203 to pick up the carton. The electric telescopic rod on the main body 101 retracts and moves downward via the electric telescopic rod of the movable block 201. The screw 304 is driven to rotate by a motor on one side, causing the movable part 40 to move. 1. Moving on the mounting rod 303, the folded side of the carton contacts the arc-shaped edge on the moving part 401 when the carton falls, causing the carton to form along the fold seam. This eliminates the need for manual operation, improving work efficiency. Furthermore, the screw 304 can be adjusted to accommodate different sized cartons. Another motor drives the screw 304 to rotate, causing the moving part 401 to move on the mounting rod 303. This allows the clamping plate 402 to contact both sides of the carton, providing auxiliary clamping and fixing. This double-fixing effect is achieved. The solenoid valve, controlled by the backend, vents the air, allowing the carton to detach from the suction cup 203 and complete the feeding process.
