Detailed Implementation

[0029] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments and accompanying drawings. The content mentioned in the embodiments is not intended to limit the present invention. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] This embodiment provides a cardboard folding device for bending and folding flat cardboard at predetermined positions, thereby reducing the labor intensity of operators, reducing reliance on personnel in the processing of inner lining cardboard for packaging boxes, improving production efficiency, and reducing production costs. Figure 3 shows an inner lining cardboard currently available on the market that requires folding and creasing. It includes multiple folds and needs to be folded along these folds, resulting in the flat cardboard folded into the shape shown, thus supporting the item. It should be noted that the shape of the cardboard shown in Figure 3 is the shape after processing by this device. When placing it inside the packaging box, it is usually rotated 180 degrees before placement, creating a large placement concave surface inside the packaging box, with a smaller placement groove on one side of the concave surface.

[0031] As shown in Figures 1-2, the cardboard crease device provided in this embodiment includes a worktable 100, on which a support component 200 and a pressing component 300 are disposed. The cardboard is creased and folded by pressing down on the pressing component 300 between the support component 200 and the pressing component 300. Specifically, the support component 200 is fixedly mounted on the worktable 100 and has several support surfaces and bending grooves 220 located between the support surfaces; the pressing component 300... The 00 includes a mounting plate 301, a pressing unit, and a pressing cylinder 330. The mounting plate 301 is suspended above the support assembly 200. The pressing unit is correspondingly arranged with the support assembly 200 and includes at least one clamping member 310 corresponding to one of the support platform surfaces and one bending member 320 corresponding to all the bending grooves 220. The pressing cylinder 330 includes multiple cylinders that are respectively corresponding to and connected to the clamping member 310 and the bending member 320, and are used to drive the clamping member 310 and the bending member 320 to reciprocate in the vertical direction.

[0032] During the folding process of the cardboard, the cardboard is placed on the support assembly 200 and supported by the support surface 210. At this time, the cardboard covers the bending groove 220. Under the action of the pressing cylinder 330, the pressing unit causes the pressing member 310 and the bending member 320 to descend in sequence to fold the cardboard. Specifically, the pressing member 310 descends and presses the cardboard onto the support surface 210. The bending member 320 descends in sequence and contacts the cardboard, pressing the cardboard towards the bending groove 220, so that the cardboard is bent within the bending groove 220. Multiple bending members 320 descend in sequence, thereby completing the bending operation of the cardboard at multiple positions.

[0033] In this embodiment, the support component 200 includes a fixed platform 230 and a movable platform unit slidably connected to the worktable 100. The top surfaces of the fixed platform 230 and the movable platform unit define the support platform surface. The fixed platform 230 is fixedly mounted on the worktable 100.

[0034] The movable table unit includes a first movable table 241, a second movable table 242, and a third movable table 243. All three movable tables are slidably connected to the surface of the workbench 100. The first movable table 241 is located on one side of the fixed table 230 and defines a bending groove 220 with the fixed table 230. The second movable table 242 is located on the other side of the fixed table 230 and defines a bending groove 220 with the fixed table 230. The third movable table 243 is located on the other side of the second movable table 242 away from the fixed table 230 and defines a bending groove 220 between the third movable table 242 and the second movable table 242.

[0035] It is worth noting that, since the cardboard needs to be bent at multiple locations, in this embodiment, the top surface of the second movable platform 242 also defines the supporting surface 210. Similarly, a pressing member 310 corresponding to the second movable platform 242 is provided on the mounting plate 301 to press the cardboard onto the top surface of the second movable platform 242.

[0036] During the specific crease processing, the clamping member 310 corresponding to the fixed table 230 moves downward under the action of the pressing cylinder 330 to press the cardboard onto the fixed table 230. At this time, the bending member 320 corresponding to the bending groove 220 defined by the first movable table 241 and the fixed table 230 moves downward and presses the cardboard into the bending groove 220. After pressing the cardboard to the bottom of the bending groove 220, the cardboard is bent within the bending groove 220. The bending member 320 presses the cardboard into the bending groove 220 located between the second movable table 242 and the fixed table 230, so that the cardboard is bent within the bending groove 220; then, the pressing member 310 corresponding to the second movable table 242 presses the cardboard onto the top surface of the second movable table 242; finally, the last bending member 320 descends to press the cardboard into the pressing groove 220 defined by the third movable table 243 and the second movable table 242, and presses and bends the cardboard within it.

[0037] To improve the effect of pressing and bending the cardboard, a closed cylinder 244 is also provided on the worktable 100 to push the three movable tables to move, thereby clamping the bending piece 320 located in the bending groove 220. This ensures that the cardboard pressed into the bending groove 220 is pressed tightly, ensuring that the bent cardboard has clear indentations, guaranteeing the effect of the cardboard after folding, and reducing the occurrence of elastic restoring. Specifically, the support assembly 200 also includes three closed cylinders 244 that are respectively connected to the first movable table 241, the second movable table 242, and the third movable table 243 to drive the first movable table 241, the second movable table 242, and the third movable table 243 to move toward the bending groove 220.

[0038] To prevent the cardboard from being pressed too tightly during the clamping process, and to prevent the cardboard from tearing due to being fixed in place when the bending member 320 is pressed towards the bending groove 220, a cushioning member is installed on the surface of the clamping member 310 facing the support table. The cushioning member is attached to the surface of the clamping member 310. By providing the cushioning member, the cardboard can still have slight movement when it is clamped, thereby preventing the cardboard from tearing.

[0039] To prevent damage to the cardboard from the excessively sharp bottom edge of the tensioning member 310 during the pressing process of the bending member 320 towards the bending groove 220, an arc-shaped transition arc is set at the lower end of the bending member 320 corresponding to the inner wall of the bending groove 220. By setting the arc-shaped arc, which is equivalent to a chamfered structure, the radius of the bending position of the cardboard can be increased during the bending process, thereby preventing the cardboard from being crushed by the bending member 320 during the bending process.

[0040] To further ensure that the cardboard is pressed tightly onto the fixed platform 230 without being overly compressed, an absorption cavity 231 is provided in the fixed platform 230. The absorption cavity 231 is formed inside the fixed platform 230 along the transverse or longitudinal direction and extends through the fixed platform 230. The absorption cavity 231 can absorb the impact force and compression force on the pressing member 310, especially the impact force, thereby preventing the pressing member 310 from impacting the fixed platform 230 under the action of downward air pressure and causing impact damage to the cardboard.

[0041] In this embodiment, to ensure accurate placement of the cardboard after it is placed on the support surface 210, limiting components 250 are provided on the two outermost support platforms of the support assembly 200. Each limiting component 250 includes limiting blocks 251 that limit movement in both the transverse and longitudinal directions. When the intercom cardboard is placed on the support assembly, accurate positioning is ensured by the limiting components. In this embodiment, the limiting components are respectively located on the first and third movable platforms.

[0042] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall fall within the scope of the present utility model.
