A displacement adjustment mechanism is fixedly installed on the top surface of the gantry frame, and a negative pressure suction cup device is fixedly installed at the output end of the displacement adjustment mechanism. The negative pressure suction cup device is located at the end of the transmission belt device. The transmission belt drives the finished premium boxes to move horizontally. When the premium boxes move to the transport point, the infrared counting device at the transport point is blocked by the premium boxes, thus achieving the counting function. Simultaneously, a negative pressure suction cup device is installed at the transport point, and its vertical and horizontal movement drives the transport and stacking of the premium boxes. However, the technical solution provided by this patent has the following problems:

[0004] When using this device, there is a lack of a limiting structure for the gift boxes. After counting, they are stacked, and the boxes are easily distorted due to insufficient space, resulting in the gift boxes not being stacked neatly.

[0005] This invention allows the device to stack premium boxes more neatly and flexibly. Utility Model Content

[0006] The present invention aims to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art and provide a high-quality box counting and stacking device.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a counting and stacking device for premium boxes, comprising: a transmission mechanism, an infrared counter provided on one side of the transmission mechanism, a guide plate provided at one end of the transmission mechanism, and a collection box provided at one end of the guide plate;

[0008] Limiting plates are provided at both ends of the guide plate, and a pad is provided inside the collection box. A hydraulic rod is provided at the bottom of the pad, and baffles are installed around the pad.

[0009] A further preferred embodiment: the limiting plate is provided with multiple rotating shafts inside, and each rotating shaft has a roller nested on its outer surface. The roller and the rotating shaft are rotatably connected, and the outer surface of the roller is made of rubber.

[0010] A further preferred embodiment: a plurality of balls are embedded in the upper end of the guide plate, the balls are movably connected to the guide plate, and the upper ends of the balls protrude from the upper end surface of the guide plate.

[0011] A further preferred embodiment: a contact plate is provided on the inner side of the baffle, the inner side of the contact plate is made of rubber, and a spring is provided between the contact plate and the baffle.

[0012] A further preferred embodiment: the upper end of the pad is provided with a slot, the bottom of the baffle is fixedly installed with a block, the block is embedded in the slot, and the slot and the block are detachably connected.

[0013] A further preferred embodiment: the side of the card block is provided with an anti-slip block, the outer side of the anti-slip block is arc-shaped, and the inside of the anti-slip block is hollow.

[0014] A further preferred embodiment: the upper end of each collection box is provided with multiple threaded grooves, and a connecting rod is embedded inside the threaded groove. The bottom of the connecting rod is detachably threadedly connected to the threaded groove.

[0015] Beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. By incorporating guide plates, the ball bearings at the top of the guide plates significantly reduce the friction between the premium boxes and the guide plates during the conveying process, allowing the premium boxes to move smoothly on the guide plates and improving transmission efficiency. Meanwhile, the rubber rollers inside the limiting plate rotate on the shaft, restricting the lateral displacement of the premium boxes while further reducing contact friction, effectively preventing scratches and wear on the surface of the premium boxes and protecting the product appearance. The combined effect of these two mechanisms ensures the stability and accuracy of the premium boxes' transition from the transmission machine to the collection box. Even during high-speed transmission or frequent operations, the premium boxes can move smoothly along the predetermined path, reducing counting errors or stacking chaos caused by transmission deviations. This stable and low-friction combination not only extends the service life of the device and reduces maintenance costs but also improves the reliability and efficiency of the entire counting and stacking process, providing a solid foundation for subsequent processing of the premium boxes and promoting the orderly progress of production operations.

[0017] 2. By incorporating a collection box, firstly, the hydraulic rod at the bottom of the pad can precisely control the height of the pad, flexibly adapting to the stacking needs of premium boxes of different heights. This greatly improves the device's compatibility with various premium boxes, allowing for orderly stacking of both short and tall boxes. Secondly, the surrounding baffles provide stable lateral support for the premium boxes. The combination of the inner rubber contact plate and spring is ingenious. The contact plate buffers the initial impact, and the spring further absorbs energy, effectively preventing quality problems such as deformation and scratches caused by collisions. This not only ensures the integrity of the product's appearance but also improves the product yield rate. Furthermore, the detachable connection between the bottom clip of the baffle and the pad's slot facilitates the installation, maintenance, and replacement of the baffle. The unique design of the anti-slip block on the clip further enhances the stability and adaptability of the connection, reducing connection problems caused by component wear or manufacturing errors. This makes the entire collection box structure more durable and reliable, effectively ensuring the stability, efficiency, and product quality of the premium box stacking process.

[0018] 3. In summary, this premium box counting and stacking device, through the inclusion of guide plates and a collection box, utilizes the ball bearings of the guide plate and the rubber rollers of the limiting plate to reduce friction, protect the product's appearance, ensure stable and accurate transmission, improve process reliability and efficiency, extend device life, and reduce costs. The hydraulic rod in the collection box is adaptable to premium boxes of different heights, enhancing compatibility. The baffles and their components effectively buffer collisions, preventing product damage and improving yield. The connection design between the baffles and the pads is convenient and practical, enhancing structural durability and effectively ensuring the stability, efficiency, and quality of premium box stacking. Together, these features promote the orderly and efficient operation of production. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The following will refer to the appendix in the embodiments of this utility model. Figures 1-4 The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-4 In this embodiment of the utility model, a high-quality box counting and stacking device includes: a transmission machine 1, an infrared counter 2 disposed on one side of the transmission machine 1, a guide plate 3 disposed at one end of the transmission machine 1, and a collection box 4 disposed at one end of the guide plate 3; both ends of the guide plate 3 are provided with limit plates 301, and a pad 401 is disposed inside the collection box 4, a hydraulic rod 402 is disposed at the bottom of the pad 401, and baffles 403 are installed around the pad 401; multiple threaded grooves 409 are opened on the upper end of the collection box 4, and a connecting rod 410 is embedded in the threaded groove 409, and the bottom of the connecting rod 410 is detachably threadedly connected to the threaded groove 409;

[0026] In this embodiment, the operation of the transmission machine 1 and the infrared counter 2 can be referenced from the transmission belt device and infrared counting device in patent publication number CN220375787U. This is prior art and will not be described in detail in this embodiment. The premium boxes are transported on the transmission machine 1. When they pass the infrared counter 2, the infrared counter 2 accurately counts the number of premium boxes. Subsequently, the premium boxes travel along the transmission machine 1 to the guide plate 3. The guide plate 3 guides the premium boxes to the collection box 4. In the collection box 4, the hydraulic rod 402 can adjust the stacking height according to the set requirements. The pad 401 is raised or lowered to accommodate the stacking of gift boxes of different heights. The limiting plate 301 laterally limits the gift boxes at both ends of the guide plate 3, preventing them from deviating from the guide plate 3 during transport. After the gift boxes fall into the collection box 4, the surrounding baffles 403 constrain them, ensuring neat stacking. The threaded groove 409 at the upper end of the collection box 4 is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 410. The position or number of the connecting rod 410 can be adjusted as needed, for example, by installing auxiliary fixing or separating devices to further optimize the stacking effect of the gift boxes. The external counter 2 accurately counts the number of premium boxes, providing precise data support for production management. Combined with the guide plate 3, collection box 4, and adjustable pads 401 and baffles 403, it achieves automated and orderly stacking of premium boxes, greatly improving stacking efficiency and reducing manual operation time and labor intensity. It is especially suitable for processing large-scale premium boxes, improving production capacity and work efficiency. The cooperation between the hydraulic rod 402 and the pad 401 inside the collection box 4 allows it to flexibly handle premium boxes of different heights, enhancing the versatility of the device. The limit plate 301 and baffle 403 ensure the stability of the premium boxes during transmission and stacking, reducing shaking and tipping, and lowering the risk of product damage. The detachable threaded connection between the threaded groove 409 and the connecting rod 410 facilitates functional expansion or structural adjustment of the collection box 4 according to actual needs, such as installing protective nets or separators, improving the adaptability and scalability of the device, meeting the special requirements of different scenarios and products, making the device more flexible in use, and further improving the stability of the premium boxes during stacking.

[0027] In this embodiment of the utility model, a plurality of rotating shafts 302 are provided inside the limiting plate 301, and a roller 303 is nested on the outer surface of each rotating shaft 302. The roller 303 and the rotating shaft 302 are rotatably connected, and the outer surface of the roller 303 is made of rubber. A plurality of ball bearings 304 are embedded in the upper end of the guide plate 3. The ball bearings 304 and the guide plate 3 are movably connected, and the upper end of the ball bearings 304 protrudes from the upper surface of the guide plate 3. When the premium box is conveyed to the guide plate 3 on the transmission machine 1, the ball bearings 304 at the upper end of the guide plate 3 play a role. Since the ball bearings 304 and the guide plate 3 are movably connected and the upper end of the ball bearings 304 protrudes from the upper surface of the guide plate 3, the ball bearings 304 at the upper end of the guide plate 3 play a role. The premium box protrudes from the upper surface of the guide plate 3. It slides forward on the ball bearings 304. The rolling of the ball bearings 304 significantly reduces the friction between the premium box and the guide plate 3, allowing the premium box to move more smoothly along the guide plate 3 towards the collection box 4. Simultaneously, inside the limiting plates 301 at both ends of the guide plate 3, the rubber rollers 303 nested on multiple rotating shafts 302 are also in operation. When the premium box contacts the limiting plate 301, the rubber rollers 303 rotate on the rotating shafts 302, further reducing the frictional resistance between the premium box and the limiting plate 301, ensuring both lateral movement of the premium box and... The effective positioning prevents the boxes from deviating from the guide plate 3 while allowing them to smoothly pass through the guide plate 3 area into the collection box 4. Throughout the process, the coordinated operation of each component ensures the smoothness and stability of the box transmission. The ball bearings 304 on the guide plate 3 and the rubber rollers 303 in the limiting plate 301 greatly reduce the friction of the boxes during transmission through rolling contact. This not only makes the movement of the boxes smoother and improves transmission efficiency, but also effectively avoids problems such as scratches and wear on the surface of the boxes that may be caused by friction. For boxes with high surface quality requirements, this better protects their appearance integrity, reduces product loss, increases product qualification rate, and reduces the company's production costs. The combination of the ball bearings 304 and the rubber rollers 303 ensures the stability of the boxes during transmission on the guide plate 3. Even under high-speed transmission or frequent conveying, the boxes are not prone to shaking or deviation due to uneven or excessive friction. They can always move accurately along the guide plate 3 towards the collection box 4, achieving precise guidance with the assistance of the limiting plate 301. This stable and precise transmission characteristic helps improve the reliability and accuracy of the entire counting and stacking device.

[0028] In this embodiment of the utility model, a contact plate 404 is provided on the inner side of the baffle 403. The inner side of the contact plate 404 is made of rubber. A spring 405 is provided between the contact plate 404 and the baffle 403. A slot 406 is provided at the upper end of the pad 401. A block 407 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the baffle 403. The block 407 is embedded in the slot 406, and the slot 406 and the block 407 are detachably connected. An anti-sliding block 408 is provided on the side of the block 407. The outer side of the anti-sliding block 408 is arc-shaped, and the inside of the anti-sliding block 408 is hollow.During the process of the premium boxes falling into the collection box 4 and stacking, the baffle 403 provides lateral obstruction. When the premium box contacts the contact plate 404 on the inner side of the baffle 403, the contact plate 404 moves towards the baffle 403 due to compression. At this time, the spring 405 is compressed, and the elastic potential energy of the spring 405 increases. The deformation of the spring 405 buffers the impact force of the premium box on the baffle 403, preventing the premium box from being damaged by collision. At the same time, since the inner side of the contact plate 404 is made of rubber, it further provides cushioning and protection, reducing wear on the surface of the premium box. The locking block 407 at the bottom of the baffle 403 is embedded in the locking groove 406 at the upper end of the pad 401, forming a detachable... The connection allows the baffle 403 to be stably installed around the pad 401, providing lateral support for the gift box. The arc-shaped anti-slip block 408 on the side of the locking block 407 allows it to slide in more smoothly when the locking block 407 is inserted into the locking slot 406. The hollow structure can adapt to minor deformations or size differences in the locking slot 406 to a certain extent, ensuring the stability of the connection and guaranteeing the effective constraint of the baffle 403 on the gift box during the entire stacking process. This allows the gift box to be stacked neatly and stably on the pad 401. The combination of the contact plate 404 and the spring 405 provides a double buffer protection mechanism for the gift box. At the moment of contact, the rubber contact plate 404 first reduces the impact force. Subsequently, spring 405 further absorbs energy, effectively preventing the premium boxes from deforming or scratching due to impact, greatly improving product integrity and yield. The stable baffle 403 structure, through the reliable connection between the locking block 407 and the slot 406 and the assistance of the anti-slip block 408, ensures that the premium boxes remain in a neat state when stacked, avoiding tilting or collapse caused by unstable lateral support, ensuring the neatness and stability of the stack, which is beneficial for subsequent handling, storage, and packaging operations. The detachable connection between the baffle 403 and the pad 401 greatly facilitates equipment maintenance and component replacement. When components such as 404, spring 405, or baffle 403 show wear or damage, baffle 403 can be quickly removed from pad 401 for repair or replacement without requiring large-scale disassembly of the entire collection box 4 structure. This shortens equipment downtime for maintenance, improves equipment utilization and overall production efficiency. Furthermore, the unique design of anti-slip block 408 optimizes the connection performance between block 407 and slot 406, improving structural adaptability and reliability. It reduces loosening caused by manufacturing errors or long-term wear of connecting components, further enhancing the stability and durability of the device and reducing maintenance costs and operational risks.

[0029] Working Principle: The premium boxes are conveyed on the transmission machine 1. An infrared counter 2 on one side accurately counts their quantity, providing data for production management. Subsequently, the premium boxes arrive at the guide plate 3. The ball bearings 304 at the upper end of the guide plate 3 are movably connected to the guide plate 3 and protrude from its upper surface. The premium boxes slide on the ball bearings 304, greatly reducing friction and allowing them to move smoothly towards the collection box 4. The limiting plates 301 at both ends of the guide plate 3 have multiple rotating shafts 302 with rubber rollers 303 inside. When the premium box contacts the limiting plate 301, the rubber rollers 303 rotate, further reducing frictional resistance. This effectively limits the lateral position of the premium boxes to prevent deviation and ensures their smooth passage through the guide plate 3 area into the collection box 4. The coordinated operation of all components ensures the smoothness and stability of the premium box transmission, reduces surface damage, improves transmission efficiency and product qualification rate, and facilitates precise guidance, enhancing the reliability and accuracy of the device. After entering the collection box 4, the hydraulic rod 402 pushes the pad 401 up and down according to the set stacking height to accommodate premium boxes of different heights. The baffle 403 provides lateral restraint to the gift box. The inner rubber contact plate 404 and the spring 405 between the baffle 403 form a double buffer protection mechanism. When the gift box comes into contact with the baffle, the contact plate 404 is pressed and moves towards the baffle 403. The spring 405 compresses and buffers the impact, preventing damage and surface wear to the gift box. The bottom locking block 407 of the baffle 403 is embedded in the slot 406 of the pad 401. The arc-shaped anti-sliding block 408 on the side of the locking block 407 facilitates sliding in. The hollow structure adapts to the deformation of the slot 406, ensuring a stable connection. This allows the premium boxes to be stacked neatly and stably on the pad 401. The threaded groove 409 at the upper end of the collection box 4 is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 410. The position or number of the connecting rod 410 can be adjusted as needed, and auxiliary fixing or separating devices can be installed to optimize the stacking effect and enhance the adaptability and scalability of the device. At the same time, the detachable connection between the baffle 403 and the pad 401 facilitates the maintenance and replacement of components, shortens downtime, improves equipment utilization and production efficiency, reduces maintenance costs and operating risks, and ensures that the entire production process is carried out efficiently and orderly.
