Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cardboard box processing technology, specifically to an automatic cardboard box flattening device. 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 sizes and models. Three-layer and five-layer cardboard boxes are commonly used, while seven-layer boxes are less common. Each layer consists of linerboard, corrugated paper, core paper, and facing paper. The linerboard and facing paper are made of kraft paper or corrugated cardboard, while the core paper is made of corrugated paper. During the processing of cardboard boxes, the boards usually need to be flattened.
[0003] Existing automatic carton flattening devices lack automatic positioning and fixing mechanisms for the carton panels, resulting in the inability to quickly position and fix the panels during flattening, which affects processing efficiency. Furthermore, the inability to automatically flip the panels makes it difficult to flatten both sides, further reducing work efficiency and processing quality, and causing certain adverse effects on users.

[0028] Working principle
[0029] Before flattening the cardboard box, the box is first placed on the pressing platform 10 on the base 9, so that both ends of the box are on the anti-slip pads 20 within the U-shaped clamps 19. After extending the electric push rod 21, the lower fixing plate 22 is pressed down, clamping and fixing the box onto the anti-slip pads 20. Then, after retracting the piston rod of the micro cylinder 12, the mounting side plate 14 is raised and lowered, pressing the box down until it is fully in contact with the pressing platform 10, achieving rapid positioning and fixing of the box. The hydraulic cylinder 5 is controlled... After the piston rod is pushed out, it drives the pressure plate 7 at the lower end of the connecting arm 6 to press down, thereby automatically flattening the lower box panel. When it is necessary to flip the box panel and flatten it, the piston rod of the micro cylinder 12 is pushed out, driving the mounting side plate 14 to rise, thereby driving the box panel to separate from the pressure table 10. After leaving enough height distance for the box panel to flip, the output shaft of the drive motor 16 is controlled to rotate, driving the U-shaped clamp 19 at the other end of the rotating shaft 18 to rotate, driving the box panel to automatically flip and achieve automatic flattening of both sides of the box panel.
