Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of box body pre-folding and edge-sealing machine structure, specifically to a clamping and moving mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Box pre-folding and edge-wrapping machines are important pieces of machinery used in the packaging industry. They are mainly used for pre-folding and edge-wrapping various types of packaging boxes, improving the forming quality and production efficiency of the boxes. The edge-wrapping process affects whether the box will develop defects such as corner bursting or dust leakage.

[0003] Currently, when moving packaging boxes, a clamping mechanism is used to hold the two long sides of the box and move it along a set trajectory. When folding the short side of the box, the clamping mechanism is still used to hold the long side of the box for positioning. Since the clamping force is perpendicular to the folding force of the short side of the box, the clamping mechanism needs to have sufficient force to hold the long side of the box, which may cause the box to deform, affecting the quality of the box, and causing friction between the box and the clamping mechanism, affecting the appearance quality of the box. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem this utility model aims to solve is that existing clamping mechanisms may cause deformation of the box body during operation, affecting the quality of the box body. The purpose is to provide a clamping and moving mechanism that prevents friction of the box body during operation by setting a box-clamping and shifting mechanism, thus ensuring the appearance quality of the box body. A positioning and clamping mechanism is set to apply a force to keep the box body stationary, thereby reducing the stress on the box body during operation, preventing deformation of the box body when folding, and further ensuring the quality of the box body.

[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] A clamping and moving mechanism includes a box-shifting mechanism and a positioning and clamping mechanism. The box-shifting mechanism includes a lifting cylinder and a translation mechanism. The translation mechanism drives the lifting cylinder to move horizontally. A clamping structure is connected to the piston rod of the lifting cylinder. The clamping structure is used to clamp the long side of the box body. The positioning and clamping mechanism includes two mechanisms, which are located on both sides of the box-shifting mechanism. Each positioning and clamping mechanism includes a clamping fixture. After the box-shifting mechanism moves the box body to the next process state, the clamping fixture can clamp the short side of the box body.

[0007] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by setting a translation mechanism to drive the lifting cylinder to translate, and connecting a clamping structure to the piston rod of the lifting cylinder, it is convenient to move the clamping structure upward by the lifting cylinder during operation, preventing the box clamped on the clamping structure from interfering with other mechanisms of the edge-wrapping machine, preventing friction between the box and the mechanism, and ensuring the appearance quality of the box; the two positioning clamping mechanisms are respectively set on both sides of the box-clamping and shifting mechanism, so that after the box-clamping and shifting mechanism moves the box to the next process state, the clamping fixture can clamp the short side of the box, so that the two clamping fixtures apply force to the two short sides of the box respectively, and the bending force on the short sides of the box is also applied to the two short sides of the box respectively. Therefore, the clamping fixture only needs to apply a force to keep the box stationary, reducing the stress on the box during operation, preventing the box from deforming during bending, and further ensuring the quality of the box.

[0008] In some embodiments, the translation mechanism includes a translation cylinder and a mounting plate. The translation cylinder is a slider cylinder, the bottom of the mounting plate is connected to the top of the slider of the translation cylinder, and the lifting cylinder is connected to the top of the mounting plate. By setting the translation cylinder as a slider cylinder, it is convenient to move the lifting cylinder and clamping mechanism mounted on the mounting plate through the slider of the slider cylinder, thereby realizing the movement of the box.

[0009] In some embodiments, the lifting cylinder includes a first lifting cylinder and a second lifting cylinder arranged side-by-side on the mounting plate. The clamping structure includes a first clamping member and a second clamping member. The first clamping member is connected to the free end of the piston rod of the first lifting cylinder, and the second clamping member is connected to the free end of the piston rod of the second lifting cylinder. By connecting the first clamping member and the second clamping member to the free ends of the piston rods of the first and second lifting cylinders respectively, it is convenient to lift the corresponding clamping member by the lifting cylinder during operation, thereby avoiding friction between the box body located on the clamping member and the equipment, and ensuring the appearance quality of the box body.

[0010] In some embodiments, both the first clamping component and the second clamping component include a clamping cylinder, a first base plate, and two clamping plates. The clamping cylinder is a double-acting cylinder. The two clamping plates are respectively connected to the free ends of the two piston rods of the clamping cylinder. The first base plate is located at the top of the clamping cylinder. In the working state, the two clamping plates abut against the two sides of the first base plate and contact the long side of the box. By setting the clamping cylinder as a double-acting cylinder, it is convenient to drive the corresponding clamping plates to move simultaneously in opposite directions during operation, thereby clamping or releasing the long side of the box.

[0011] In some embodiments, a first flexible structure is provided on the inner side of each clamping plate, and in the working state, the first flexible structure contacts the long side of the box. By providing a first flexible structure on the inner side of each clamping plate, it is easier to prevent the clamping plate from damaging the box during operation, thus ensuring the quality of the box.

[0012] In some embodiments, the clamping cylinders are all horizontally connected to the free end of the piston rod of the corresponding lifting cylinder, and the first base plate is connected to the top of the corresponding clamping cylinder. Horizontally connecting the clamping cylinders facilitates the horizontal movement of the piston rod during operation, thus clamping the box.

[0013] In some embodiments, the positioning and clamping mechanism includes an extension cylinder, which is a slider cylinder. The clamping fixture is connected to the upper end of the slider of the extension cylinder, and the moving direction of the slider is perpendicular to the moving direction of the translation mechanism. By setting the extension cylinder as a slider cylinder, it is convenient for the slider to drive the clamping fixture to move, moving it closer to the translation mechanism when clamping the box and moving it away from the translation mechanism when not clamping the box.

[0014] In some embodiments, the positioning and clamping mechanism further includes a clamping cylinder. The clamping clamp includes a second base plate and side plates. The clamping cylinder is a double-acting cylinder. The second base plate is connected to one side of the clamping cylinder. The clamping cylinder is connected to the slider of the extension cylinder. The virtual axis of the clamping cylinder is perpendicular to the virtual axis of the extension cylinder. The free ends of the two piston rods of the clamping cylinder are respectively connected to the corresponding side plates. In the working state, the second base plate is in contact with the short side of the box, and the side plates are close to the corresponding long side of the box. By setting the clamping cylinder as a double-acting cylinder, the piston rod of the double-acting cylinder drives the corresponding two side plates to move simultaneously toward or away from the second base plate, thereby moving toward or away from the long side of the box and assisting in positioning the box. After the extension cylinder moves toward the translation mechanism, the second base plate abuts against the corresponding short side of the box to position the box.

[0015] In some embodiments, the positioning and clamping mechanism further includes a connecting block, the bottom of which is connected to the slider of the extending cylinder, and the clamping cylinder is connected to the top of the connecting block. The connecting block enhances the connection strength and rigidity between the clamping cylinder and the slider of the extending cylinder.

[0016] In some embodiments, a top plate is also included, which is connected to the frame of the pre-folding and edge-wrapping machine. The top plate is provided with a channel for the clamping structure to pass through. When the clamping fixture is in the working state of clamping the short side of the box, the box is placed on the top plate. By providing a top plate, it is convenient for the box to be placed on the top plate when the clamping fixture is in the working state of clamping the short side of the box, thus improving the support of the box.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. The lifting cylinder drives the clamping structure to move upward, preventing the box clamped on the clamping structure from interfering with other mechanisms of the edge banding machine, preventing friction between the box and the mechanism, and ensuring the appearance quality of the box.

[0019] 2. The two positioning and clamping mechanisms are respectively set on both sides of the box-clamping and shifting mechanism. This allows the clamping fixtures to clamp the short sides of the box after the box-clamping and shifting mechanism moves the box to the next process. The two clamping fixtures apply forces to the two short sides of the box respectively, and the bending force on the short sides of the box also applies forces to the two short sides of the box respectively. Therefore, the clamping fixtures only need to apply a force to keep the box stationary, reducing the stress on the box during operation, preventing deformation of the box during bending, and further ensuring the quality of the box.

[0020] 3. A top plate is provided so that the box can be placed on the top plate when the clamping fixture is holding the short side of the box, thereby increasing the support of the box. Attached Figure Description

[0034] Example

[0035] like Figures 1-6As shown, this embodiment provides a clamping and moving mechanism, including a box-shifting mechanism and a positioning and clamping mechanism. The box-shifting mechanism includes a lifting cylinder and a translation mechanism. The translation mechanism is used to drive the lifting cylinder to move horizontally. A clamping structure is connected to the piston rod of the lifting cylinder. The clamping structure is used to clamp the long side of the box body 50. The positioning and clamping mechanism includes two mechanisms, which are located on both sides of the box-shifting mechanism. Each positioning and clamping mechanism includes a clamping fixture. After the box-shifting mechanism moves the box body 50 to the next process state, the clamping fixture can clamp the short side of the box body 50. Two clamping fixtures apply forces to the two short sides of the box 50 respectively. The bending force on the short sides of the box 50 also applies forces to the two short sides of the box 50 respectively. Therefore, the clamping fixtures only need to apply a force to keep the box 50 stationary, which reduces the stress on the box 50 during operation, prevents the box 50 from deforming during bending, and further ensures the quality of the box 50.

[0036] See Figures 1-5 The translation mechanism includes a translation cylinder 20 and a mounting plate 21. The translation cylinder 20 is a slider cylinder, and the bottom of the mounting plate 21 is connected to the top of the slider of the translation cylinder 20. The lifting cylinder is connected to the top of the mounting plate 21. By setting the translation cylinder 20 as a slider cylinder, it is convenient to move the lifting cylinder and the clamping mechanism mounted on the mounting plate 21 through the slider of the slider cylinder, thereby realizing the movement of the box 50.

[0037] See Figures 1-5 The lifting cylinder includes a first lifting cylinder 102 and a second lifting cylinder 112 arranged side-by-side on the mounting plate 21. The clamping structure includes a first clamping component and a second clamping component. The first clamping component is connected to the free end of the piston rod of the first lifting cylinder 102, and the second clamping component is connected to the free end of the piston rod of the second lifting cylinder 112. By connecting the first clamping component and the second clamping component to the free ends of the piston rods of the first lifting cylinder 102 and the second lifting cylinder 112 respectively, it is convenient to lift the corresponding clamping component by the lifting cylinder during operation, thereby avoiding friction between the box 50 located on the clamping component and the equipment, and ensuring the appearance quality of the box 50.

[0038] See Figures 1-5The first and second clamping components each include a clamping cylinder 111, a first base plate 104, and two clamping plates 103. The clamping cylinder 111 is a double-acting cylinder. The two clamping plates 103 are respectively connected to the free ends of the two piston rods of the clamping cylinder 111. The first base plate 104 is located on top of the clamping cylinder 111. In the working state, the two clamping plates 103 abut against the two sides of the first base plate 104 and contact the long side of the box 50. By setting the clamping cylinder 111 as a double-acting cylinder, it is convenient to drive the corresponding clamping plates 103 to move simultaneously in opposite directions during operation, thereby clamping or releasing the long side of the box 50.

[0039] See Figures 1-5 Each of the clamping plates 103 has a first flexible structure 23 on its inner side. In the working state, the first flexible structure 23 is in contact with the long side of the box body 50. By providing the first flexible structure 23 on the inner side of each clamping plate 103, it is easy to prevent the clamping plate 103 from damaging the box body 50 during operation, thus ensuring the quality of the box body 50.

[0040] See Figures 1-5 Each clamping cylinder 111 is horizontally connected to the free end of the piston rod of the corresponding lifting cylinder, and the first base plate 104 is connected to the top of the corresponding clamping cylinder 111. By horizontally connecting the clamping cylinders 111, it is convenient for the piston rod to move horizontally during operation, thereby clamping the box 50.

[0041] See Figures 1-5 The positioning and clamping mechanism includes an extension cylinder 30, which is a slider cylinder. The clamping fixture is connected to the upper end of the slider of the extension cylinder 30, and the movement direction of the slider is perpendicular to the movement direction of the translation mechanism. By setting the extension cylinder 30 as a slider cylinder, it is convenient for the slider to drive the clamping fixture to move, moving it closer to the translation mechanism when clamping the box 50, and moving it away from the translation mechanism when not clamping the box 50.

[0042] See Figures 1-5The positioning and clamping mechanism further includes a clamping cylinder 34. The clamping clamp includes a second base plate 32 and a side plate 35. The clamping cylinder 34 is a double-acting cylinder. The second base plate 32 is connected to one side of the clamping cylinder 34. The clamping cylinder 34 is connected to the slider of the extension cylinder 30. The virtual axis of the clamping cylinder 34 is perpendicular to the virtual axis of the extension cylinder 30. The free ends of the two piston rods of the clamping cylinder 34 are respectively connected to the corresponding side plates 35. In the working state, the second base plate 32 contacts the short side of the box 50, and the side plate 35 approaches the long side of the corresponding box 50. By setting the clamping cylinder 34 as a double-acting cylinder, the piston rod of the double-acting cylinder drives the corresponding two side plates 35 to move or move away from the second bottom plate 32 at the same time, so as to move closer to or away from the long side of the box 50 and perform auxiliary positioning of the box 50. After the extension cylinder 30 moves in the direction of the translation mechanism, the second bottom plate 32 abuts against the corresponding short side of the box 50 to position the box 50.

[0043] See Figure 1 and Figure 6 A second flexible structure 33 is provided on the side of the second base plate 32 that contacts the short side of the box body 50. The second flexible structure 33 contacts the box body 50 to prevent the second base plate 32 from damaging the box body 50 during operation, thus ensuring the quality of the box body 50. The first flexible structure 23 and the second flexible structure 33 in this utility model can be made of flexible materials such as silicone or airbags.

[0044] See Figure 1 and Figure 6 The positioning and clamping mechanism further includes a connecting block 31, the bottom of which is connected to the slider of the extending cylinder 30, and the clamping cylinder 34 is connected to the top of the connecting block 31. The connecting block 31 enhances the connection strength and rigidity between the clamping cylinder 34 and the slider of the extending cylinder 30.

[0045] See Figure 1 and Figure 6 It also includes a top plate 40, which is connected to the frame of the pre-folding and edge-binding machine. The top plate 40 is provided with a channel for the clamping structure to pass through. When the clamping fixture is in the working state of clamping the short side of the box body 50, the box body 50 is placed on the top plate 40. By providing the top plate 40, it is convenient for the box body 50 to be placed on the top plate 40 when the clamping fixture is in the working state of clamping the short side of the box body 50, thus improving the support of the box body 50.

[0046] See Figures 1-5 It also includes a cable chain 22, in which the pipelines of all cylinders in this utility model are integrated.

[0047] During operation, the translation mechanism is activated. The slider of the translation cylinder moves the mounting plate 21 and the lifting cylinder and clamping structure on the mounting plate 21 to the corresponding position on the long side of the box 50. The clamping cylinder 111 (double-acting cylinder) operates, and the first flexible structure 23 on the inner side of the clamping plate 103 contacts and clamps the long side of the box 50. The piston rod of the lifting cylinder rises, causing the clamping structure and the clamped box 50 to move upward, preventing the box 50 from interfering with other mechanisms of the edge-wrapping machine. The translation mechanism operates again, the translation cylinder moves the box 50 to the corresponding position for the next process, the lifting cylinder moves the box 50 downward, and the clamping cylinder 111 places the box 50 on the top plate 40. The extension cylinder 30 of the positioning clamping mechanism operates, and the slider moves the clamping fixture towards the translation mechanism, closer to the box 50. The clamping cylinder 34 drives the side plate 35 to move closer to the long side of the box body 50, thus assisting in the positioning of the box body 50. The extended cylinder 30 moves so that the second base plate 32 abuts against the corresponding short side of the box body 50. At this time, the two clamping clamps apply force to the two short sides of the box body 50 respectively, completing the positioning and fixing of the box body 50, so that the box body 50 remains stable in subsequent processes.
