Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an improved packaging equipment, and in particular to a cockroach poison box closing mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Cockroach bait boxes are highly effective at attracting and killing cockroaches, and they reduce the risk of accidental ingestion by pets and children. Current cockroach bait boxes use a plastic body and a cardboard lid, sealed together by heat pressing. However, cardboard lids are prone to deformation, degradation, and damage under high temperatures and environmental conditions, affecting the preservation of the bait. Furthermore, cockroaches themselves may gnaw on the cardboard, damaging the packaging structure. Therefore, a plastic lid is more effective, but current cockroach bait packaging equipment cannot automatically close the plastic body and lid. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the technical problems existing in the background art, the technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a cockroach medicine box closing mechanism to realize the automatic closing of the plastic box body and the box lid.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: the cockroach medicine box closing mechanism is characterized by including a box lid feeding component, a box lid conveying component, and a closing component;

[0005] The lid transfer component includes a transverse conveyor belt and a transfer mold mounted on the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt is provided with an infeed station and an outfeed station.

[0006] The lid picking component includes a first suction component that moves up and down, and the first suction component moves back and forth between the lid picking station and the feeding station of the lid conveying device.

[0007] The closing component includes a second suction component that moves up and down, and the second suction component reciprocates between the discharge station and the closing station of the box conveying device.

[0008] The first suction component of this invention picks up the formed box lid from the lid-picking station and delivers it to the transfer mold at the feeding station. The conveyor belt then transports the transfer mold to the discharge station. The second suction component delivers the formed box lid from the transfer mold to the lid-closing station. The transfer mold serves a positioning function, preventing the box lid from moving during transport and ensuring that it is accurately delivered to the discharge station and finally placed precisely on the formed box body.

[0009] Preferably, the lid conveying device conveys longitudinally, the lid picking station and the feeding station are arranged side by side laterally, and the first suction element moves longitudinally in a straight line.

[0010] Preferably, the box conveying device conveys longitudinally, and the discharge station and the lid closing station are arranged longitudinally in the same row, while the second suction component moves laterally in a straight line. The first and second suction components only need to move in a straight line and lift to achieve feeding, resulting in a short conveying stroke, simple operation, and high efficiency.

[0011] Preferably, the transfer mold reciprocates between the feeding station and the discharging station. This reciprocating motion has a short stroke and requires only one set of transfer molds, resulting in low processing costs while meeting production needs.

[0012] Preferably, the lid feeding component includes a longitudinal guide component and a first driving component that drives the first suction component to move longitudinally.

[0013] Preferably, the closing component includes a lateral guide component and a second drive component that drives the second suction component to move laterally.

[0014] Preferably, the box conveying device further includes a sealing station, which is located in front of the lid closing station;

[0015] The sealing station is equipped with an ultrasonic welding device. Ultrasonic welding is highly efficient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly.

[0016] Preferably, the conveyor belt is provided with side baffles on both sides, and the distance between the two side baffles matches the width of the transfer mold. This improves the stability of the transfer mold's movement and further enhances the stability and accuracy of the conveying of the lifting box lid. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, details the embodiments and working principles of this utility model.

[0022] This cockroach bait box closing mechanism includes a lid-feeding component 32, a lid-transferring component 31, and a closing component 33. The lid-transferring component 31 includes a transverse conveyor belt 311 and transfer molds 312 mounted on the conveyor belt 311. The conveyor belt 311 has a feeding station 34 and a discharging station 35. Multiple sets of transfer molds 312 can be provided, evenly distributed on the conveyor belt 311. The conveyor belt 311 can use a circulating conveyor to transport the transfer molds 312 from the feeding station to the discharging station, and then from the discharging station back to the feeding station. To reduce costs and shorten the travel distance, a single set of transfer molds 312 can be used, with the conveyor belt 311 moving laterally back and forth, allowing the transfer molds 312 to move back and forth between the feeding and discharging stations. Side baffles 313 are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt 311, and the distance between the two side baffles 313 matches the width of the transfer molds 312. Improve the stability of the transfer module 312 movement, and further enhance the stability and accuracy of the lifting rope box cover conveying.

[0023] The lid-picking component 32 includes a first suction component 321 that moves up and down, reciprocating between the lid-picking station 17 and the feeding station 34 of the lid conveying device 10. The lid-closing component 33 includes a second suction component 331 that moves up and down, reciprocating between the discharge station and the lid-closing station 27 of the box body conveying device 20. The lid conveying device delivers the formed lid 6 to the lid-picking station 17. The first suction component 321 moves down to absorb the formed lid at the lid-picking station 17, then moves up and above the feeding station, and then moves down to deliver the formed lid to the transfer mold 312. After the transfer mold 312 receives the formed lid, the conveyor belt 311 delivers the transfer mold 312 to the discharge station 35. The first suction component 321 then moves up and returns to above the lid-picking station 17 for the next picking operation. The second suction member 331 moves downward to attract the molded box cover on the transfer mold 312 at the discharge station, and then sends the molded box cover to the box body 5 at the closing station 27. The transfer mold 312 plays a positioning role to prevent the box cover from shifting during the conveying process, and can accurately send the box cover 6 to the discharge station. The first suction member 321 and the second suction member 331 accurately send the molded box cover to the molded box body to achieve closing.

[0024] See attached Figure 3The lid conveying device 10 conveys longitudinally, and the lid picking station 17 and the feeding station 34 are arranged horizontally side by side. The first suction component 321 moves longitudinally in a straight line. The box body conveying device 20 conveys longitudinally, and the discharge station 35 and the lid closing station 27 are arranged longitudinally in the same row. The second suction component 331 moves horizontally in a straight line. The lid conveying device and the box body conveying device are arranged in parallel side by side. The first suction component 321 only needs to move up and down and longitudinally in a straight line, and the second suction component 331 only needs to move up and down and laterally in a straight line. This utility model simplifies the structure and operation of each component through structural layout, improves the overall processing speed and stability, and makes the feeding of the first suction component 321 and the second suction component 331 more stable, faster, and more accurate.

[0025] The lid-feeding component 32 includes a longitudinal guide component 323 and a first driving component 322 that drives the first suction component 321 to move longitudinally. The lid-closing component 33 includes a transverse guide component 333 and a second driving component 332 that drives the second suction component 331 to move transversely. The longitudinal guide component 323 and the transverse guide component 333 can adopt structures such as linear guide rails and sliders or guide rods and guide sleeves. The first driving component 322 and the second driving component 332 can adopt cylinders or motors combined with lead screw mechanisms or linkage mechanisms.

[0026] The box conveying device also includes a sealing station 28, which is located in front of the lid closing station 27. The sealing station 28 is equipped with an ultrasonic welding device, which welds the closed box 5 and the lid 6 together using ultrasonic waves. Ultrasonic welding is more environmentally friendly, energy-saving and provides a strong weld.
