[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automation, and in particular to a carton packing module for a cardboard packaging box packing machine. Background Technology

[0002] Cardboard boxes are a type of paper packaging box, commonly used for product packaging. Due to their aesthetic appeal and relatively durable packaging properties, cardboard boxes are widely used for packaging various products such as cigarettes, daily necessities, and food. The production of cardboard boxes typically includes printing, die-cutting, and folding. After production, they are usually stacked vertically or arranged horizontally for easy transport. Efficiently and reliably packing and handling cardboard boxes is one of the challenges in cardboard box production.

[0003] The most common way to pack boxes is by manual packaging, where people move the stacks of materials one by one and put them into the boxes. However, manual packing is generally characterized by high labor intensity and low efficiency. In addition, cardboard boxes are prone to scattering, which further affects packing efficiency and effectiveness. Summary of the Invention

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Example

[0032] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a carton packing machine for cardboard packaging boxes includes a frame 1, a paper feeding module 6, a paper wrapping module 2, and a carton packing module 3.

[0033] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the frame 1 is equipped with a feeding station 14, a paper receiving station 15, a paper storage station, and a boxing station 13. The feeding station 14 is located above the paper receiving station 15 and has a paper wrapping channel that runs vertically through it. Specifically, the frame 1 is equipped with a receiving bracket 11, and the feeding station 14 is located on the receiving bracket 11. The receiving bracket 11 includes two parallel supporting units 111, forming a paper wrapping channel between the two supporting units 111. The two supporting units 111 cooperate to reliably support the cardboard packaging box while reasonably forming a paper wrapping channel, providing sufficient space for the paper wrapping operation.

[0034] Furthermore, the frame 1 is also equipped with a feeding module, which includes a conveying mechanism corresponding to each of the carrying units 111. The conveying mechanism is arranged along the extension direction of the carrying units 111. Specifically, the conveying mechanism is a transmission belt. The feeding module can realize the automated conveying of cardboard packaging boxes along the extension direction of the carrying units 111, further improving the automation level of the packing operation.

[0035] like Figures 4-7 As shown, the paper feeding module 6 includes a paper picking component 62 and a paper feeding transfer component 61. The paper feeding transfer component is used to drive the paper picking component 62 to reciprocate between the paper storage station and the paper receiving station 15. Specifically, the paper picking component 62 includes a plurality of paper picking suction cups.

[0036] The paper feeding and transfer assembly includes a paper-picking mounting base, a second lateral drive mechanism, and a second longitudinal drive mechanism. The first lateral drive mechanism drives the paper-picking mounting base to move horizontally, and the second longitudinal drive mechanism drives the second lateral drive mechanism and the paper-picking mounting base to move synchronously up and down. The paper-picking suction cup is mounted on the paper-picking mounting base and faces downward. Specifically, the second lateral drive mechanism and the second longitudinal drive mechanism are cylinders or motors. Packaging paper is placed in the paper storage station in the form of a paper stack. The paper-picking suction cup picks up the packaging paper from the paper stack using negative pressure adsorption, and with the cooperation of the second lateral drive mechanism and the second longitudinal drive mechanism, the transfer operation from the paper storage station to the paper receiving base is realized.

[0037] like Figures 8-11 As shown, the wrapping module 2 includes a paper receiving assembly 21 and a wrapping drive assembly 22. The wrapping drive assembly 22 drives the paper receiving assembly 21 to reciprocate between the paper receiving station 15 and the feeding station 14. Specifically, the wrapping drive assembly 22 includes a lifting drive mechanism, which drives the paper receiving base to move up and down, thereby lifting the wrapping paper from the paper receiving station 15 to the feeding station 14. Specifically, the lifting drive mechanism includes a motor and a lead screw transmission mechanism.

[0038] like Figures 8-11 As shown, the paper receiving assembly 21 includes a paper receiving base, on which a flipping drive unit and two flipping units 211 are provided. The two flipping units 211 are rotatably connected to the paper receiving base and are arranged opposite each other to the paper receiving base from left to right. The flipping drive unit is used to drive the flipping units 211 to flip up and down.

[0039] Specifically, the flipping drive unit includes a flipping drive component, a driving rack, and a driven gear, with the driven gear meshing with the driving rack. The flipping drive component is mounted on the paper receiving base and drives the driving rack to translate. The driven gear rotates synchronously with the flipping unit 211, and the axis of the driven gear coincides with the rotation center of the flipping unit 211. The flipping drive component realizes the up-and-down flipping operation of the flipping unit 211 through a gear and rack transmission assembly, thereby realizing the upward flipping packaging operation of the packaging paper.

[0040] like Figures 8-11As shown, the paper receiving base is further equipped with an adjustment mechanism and two paper receiving sliders 212, which are positioned opposite each other. The adjustment mechanism drives the two paper receiving sliders 212 to move relative to each other. The flipping unit 211 corresponds one-to-one with the paper receiving sliders 212 and is located at the end of the corresponding paper receiving slider 212 that is away from the other paper receiving slider 212. By adjusting the relative movement of the two paper receiving sliders 212, it can accommodate packaging paper of different lengths, correspondingly adapting to different packaging widths or heights, and can well match the packing requirements of different quantities of cardboard packaging boxes.

[0041] like Figures 8-11 As shown, in order to ensure that the packaging paper remains stable during the transfer process from the paper receiving station 15 to the feeding station 14, the paper receiving base and the flipping unit 211 are respectively provided with paper wrapping suction cups 213.

[0042] like Figures 12-17 As shown, the packing module 3 includes a paper-lifting assembly 32 and a packing drive assembly 31. The packing drive assembly 31 drives the paper-lifting assembly 32 to reciprocate between the feeding station 14 and the packing station 13. Specifically, the packing drive assembly 31 includes a first transverse drive mechanism and a first longitudinal drive mechanism. The first longitudinal drive mechanism drives the paper-lifting assembly 32 to move up and down, and the first transverse drive mechanism drives the first longitudinal drive mechanism and the paper-lifting assembly 32 to move horizontally synchronously. After the paper-lifting assembly 32 completes the gripping and tightening operation of the packaging paper, the first transverse drive mechanism and the first longitudinal drive mechanism cooperate to complete the transfer action of the packaging paper and cardboard box from the feeding station 14 to the packing station 13. Specifically, the first longitudinal drive mechanism includes a motor and a gear and rack transmission mechanism. Specifically, the frame 1 includes a crossbeam 12 located above the receiving bracket 11. The first transverse drive mechanism includes a first slider 314, a second slider 313, a first translation drive 312, and a second translation drive 311. The first slider 314 is horizontally slidably connected to the crossbeam 12. The first translation drive 312 includes a motor and a rack and pinion transmission mechanism, and is used to drive the first slider 314 to slide. The second slider 313 is horizontally slidably connected to the first slider 314. The second translation drive 311 includes a motor and a lead screw transmission mechanism, and is used to drive the second slider 313 to slide.

[0043] like Figures 12-17As shown, the paper-lifting assembly 32 includes a paper-clamping mechanism, a tightening mechanism 323, and a paper-lifting base. The paper-lifting base is slidably mounted on the second slider 313. The paper-clamping mechanism includes two paper-clamping units arranged opposite each other from left to right. The tightening mechanism 323 is used to drive the two paper-clamping units to move relative to each other. The tightening mechanism 323 includes a tightening drive unit and two paper-clamping arms. The tightening drive unit is mounted on the paper-lifting base, and the two paper-clamping arms are arranged opposite each other from left to right relative to the paper-lifting base, with the paper-clamping arms extending downwards. The tightening drive unit is used to drive the two paper-clamping arms to move closer or further apart from each other. Specifically, the tightening mechanism 323 includes a motor and a gear and rack transmission mechanism.

[0044] The paper clamping units correspond one-to-one with the paper clamping arms and are mounted on the corresponding paper clamping arms. Each paper clamping unit includes a paper clamping drive and two clamps, which are positioned opposite each other. The paper clamping drive is used to drive the two clamps to move relative to each other. The clamps are used to grip the ends of the packaging paper. The clamps move synchronously with the paper lifting base and complete the tightening action under the drive of the tightening drive unit.

[0045] In one specific implementation, one of the two clamps is a fixed clamp and the other is a movable clamp. The fixed clamp consists of two parallel clamping rods fixedly mounted on the paper lifting base. The movable clamp includes a squeezing part made of elastic material, which faces the fixed clamp. The paper clamping drive is a cylinder. During clamping, the squeezing part contacts and squeezes both clamping rods, achieving reliable contact with the packaging paper. Furthermore, the paper clamping drive components of the two paper clamping units are arranged opposite each other, that is, the paper clamping drive components are arranged inward. When the packaging paper is clamped and the tightening mechanism 323 drives the two paper clamping units to move closer to each other, the paper clamping unit, including the paper clamping drive component, can be completely located within the area of ​​the cardboard packaging box in the vertical direction. During the packing process of the cardboard packaging box, the paper clamping unit can enter the box without obstruction.

[0046] The carton packing machine of this application automates the transfer and packing of cardboard packaging boxes through the coordination of packaging paper, and has the advantages of reliable packing and high degree of automation.

[0047] A method for packing cardboard boxes, using a packing machine as described above;

[0048] At least the following steps are included:

[0049] S1. Paper Feeding: The cardboard packaging boxes 4 are placed on the receiving bracket 11 in a stacked or horizontal arrangement, while the packaging paper 7 is placed in the paper storage station in a stack. The feeding module operates, feeding a specific number of cardboard packaging boxes 4 into the feeding station 14. The paper feeding module 6 operates, the paper picking component 62 picks up the packaging paper 7 at the paper storage station, and the paper feeding transfer component 61 synchronously transfers the paper picking component 62 and the packaging paper 7 to the receiving station 15, placing the packaging paper 7 on the receiving base. The paper feeding transfer component 61 drives the paper picking component 62 to move out of the receiving station 15.

[0050] S2. Paper Wrapping: The paper wrapping module 2 operates, and the paper wrapping drive component 22 drives the paper receiving component 21 to move from the paper receiving station 15 to the feeding station 14. At this time, the packaging paper 7 is located below the cardboard packaging box 4, i.e. Figure 12 As shown, during the movement, the paper suction cup 213 always holds the packaging paper 7. Figure 13 As shown, the flipping drive unit then drives the two flipping units 211 to flip upwards, and the two ends of the corresponding packaging paper 7 also flip upwards, and wrap the cardboard packaging box 4 inside the packaging paper 7. At this time, both ends of the packaging paper 7 are higher than the top of the cardboard packaging box 4.

[0051] S3. Packing: as per... Figure 14 As shown, the packing module 3 operates, and the packing drive assembly 31 drives the paper lifting assembly 32 to move to the feeding station 14. Two paper clamping units then clamp the corresponding ends of the packaging paper 7. Subsequently, the tightening mechanism 323 operates, driving the two paper clamping units closer together, tightening the packaging paper 7. Simultaneously, the two paper clamping units move horizontally into the area of ​​the cardboard packaging box 4. Next, the packing drive assembly 31 drives the paper lifting assembly 32 to the packing station 13, simultaneously feeding the cardboard packaging box 4 and the packaging paper 7 into the packaging box 5 located at the packing station 13. The paper clamping units release the packaging paper, and the packing drive assembly 31 drives the paper lifting assembly 32 out of the packaging box 5, completing a single packing operation.

[0052] Compared to traditional manual packing methods, the packing method of this application not only significantly improves efficiency, but also effectively ensures the stability of the cardboard boxes during the transfer and packing process by using the constraint of the wrapping paper, thus guaranteeing a high success rate. Furthermore, since the wrapping paper remains inside the box after packing, it not only serves to constrain the cardboard boxes during packing, but also allows for upward and reverse movement to remove the boxes when needed, further enhancing convenience.

[0053] In summary, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
