Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging box sealing technology, and in particular to a packaging box sealing and feeding mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Nowadays, there are many types of packaging boxes, and the same goes for their sealing methods. For convenience and other reasons, more and more easy-open lids are being used. Compared with traditional lids, easy-open lids open in one step, reducing the number of steps and physical exertion. Users can open canned goods, beverages, and other packaging directly by hand, eliminating the need for can openers or knives, which is especially suitable for fast-paced lifestyles.
[0003] Easy-open lids come in many forms, such as magnetic closure, pull rings, or tear strips. Among them, pull ring easy-open lids are relatively common. These easy-open lids are usually glued to the packaging box or fixed inside the packaging box by interference fit to achieve sealing.
[0004] When sealing these types of packaging boxes, whether using adhesive or interference fit, it is generally necessary to pre-place the sealing caps one by one onto the box before using a sealing machine for automatic sealing. However, feeding the sealing caps one by one and accurately placing them onto the box is difficult to automate with mechanical equipment, while using manual labor is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a packaging box sealing and feeding mechanism to solve the technical problem in the prior art that it is difficult to feed the sealing caps one by one in sequence and accurately place them on the packaging box through mechanical automation.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a packaging box sealing and feeding mechanism, including a rotating disk that serves as a sealing operation base, and a feeding station and a sealing station arranged around the rotating disk. The sealing and feeding mechanism further includes:
[0007] A feeding pipe is installed at the feeding station, and several sealing caps are placed inside the feeding pipe, and a connecting lug is provided at the bottom of the feeding pipe;
[0008] A flexible belt is rotatably connected inside the connecting ear, and a portion of the inner side of the flexible belt is located inside the feeding tube. A feeding motor is fixedly installed on the connecting ear to drive the rotation of the flexible belt.
[0009] The outer surface of the flexible belt has a number of insertion teeth arranged at equal intervals, and the distance between adjacent insertion teeth is greater than or equal to the thickness of one sealing cap, but less than the thickness of two sealing caps.
[0010] Furthermore, a pair of connecting ears are provided and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the feeding tube, and the connecting ears are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feeding tube.
[0011] Furthermore, the minimum distance between the two flexible straps inside the connecting ears is greater than the diameter of the sealing cap, and the minimum distance between the inserted teeth on the two flexible straps is less than the diameter of the sealing cap.
[0012] Furthermore, the connecting ear has two rotating rollers rotatably connected inside, and the two rotating rollers are respectively connected to the upper and lower ends of the flexible belt, and one of the rotating rollers is also fixedly connected to the output shaft of the feeding motor.
[0013] Furthermore, the feeding station on the rotating disk is located before the sealing station, and the sealing station is also equipped with a sealing machine.
[0014] Furthermore, the rotating disk is also equipped with multiple positioning seats for positioning the packaging box to be sealed.
[0015] Furthermore, a rotating motor is provided at the bottom of the rotating disk to drive the rotating disk to rotate, and the positioning seat can pass directly under the feeding pipe when the rotating disk rotates.
[0016] Furthermore, a support is provided on the outer side of the rotating disk, and the feeding pipe is fixedly connected to the support.

Terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" are used only to indicate relative positional relationships; when the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may also change accordingly.
[0028] The first aspect of the utility model, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, easy-open caps are typically attached to the packaging box using adhesive or by interference fit to secure them inside the box. Therefore, during sealing, the sealing caps 02 of the packaging box 01 must be placed onto the box one by one beforehand, and then automatically sealed by a sealing machine. However, existing equipment struggles to accurately and automatically place each sealing cap 02 onto the packaging box 01. Therefore, this invention incorporates a feeding pipe 106 for feeding the caps.
[0029] Specifically, a rotating disk 101 is designed to serve as a sealing operation platform, and a feeding station and a sealing station are arranged around the rotating disk 101. The feeding pipe 106 is located at the feeding station, and multiple sealing caps 02 can be placed in advance inside the feeding pipe 106. The bottom of the feeding pipe 106 is provided with a connecting lug 107.
[0030] The rotating disk 101 serves as the sealing operation platform, and a feeding station and a sealing station are arranged around the rotating disk 101 to improve the level of automation. The feeding station is equipped with a feeding pipe 106 for feeding materials.
[0031] The rotating disk 101 has a loading station located before the sealing station, and a sealing machine 104 is also installed at the sealing station. The rotating disk 101 also has multiple positioning seats 103 for positioning the packaging boxes 01 to be sealed. A rotating motor 102 is located at the bottom of the rotating disk 101 to drive its rotation, and the positioning seats 103 can pass directly below the loading pipe 106 when the rotating disk 101 rotates.
[0032] Multiple positioning seats 103 are also provided on the rotating disk 101. The rotating disk 101 can rotate so that the positioning seats 103 are directly below the feeding tube 106, waiting for feeding, so that the sealing cap 02 in the feeding tube 106 can accurately fall onto the packaging box 01 on the positioning seat 103.
[0033] The second aspect of this utility model is as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in addition to ensuring that each sealing cap 02 is accurately placed on the packaging box 01, it is also necessary to feed the sealing caps 02 one by one in sequence. Therefore, in this embodiment, a connecting ear 107 is provided at the bottom of the feeding tube 106, and a flexible belt 110 is rotatably connected in the connecting ear 107, and a part of the inner side of the flexible belt 110 is located inside the feeding tube 106.
[0034] Additionally, a feeding motor 108 is fixedly installed on the connecting ear 107 to drive the rotation of the flexible belt 110. The outer surface of the flexible belt 110 has a number of insertion teeth 111 arranged at equal intervals, and the distance between adjacent insertion teeth 111 is greater than or equal to the thickness of one sealing cap 02 and less than the thickness of two sealing caps 02.
[0035] Preferably, a pair of connecting ears 107 are provided and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the feeding tube 106, and the connecting ears 107 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feeding tube 106. The minimum distance between the flexible belts 110 inside the two connecting ears 107 is greater than the diameter of the sealing cap 02, and the minimum distance between the insertion teeth 111 on the two flexible belts 110 is less than the diameter of the sealing cap 02.
[0036] These insertion teeth 111 can be inserted between two adjacent sealing caps 02 and support the sealing caps 02. In addition, a feeding motor 108 is set to drive the rotation of the flexible belt 110, thereby realizing the sequential feeding of materials one by one.
[0037] In addition, two rotating rollers 109 are rotatably connected inside the connecting ear 107. The two rotating rollers 109 are respectively connected to the upper and lower ends of the flexible belt 110, and one of the rotating rollers 109 is also fixedly connected to the output shaft of the feeding motor 108.
[0038] A support 105 is also provided on the outer side of the rotating disk 101, and the feeding pipe 106 is fixedly connected to the support 105.
[0039] In summary, this utility model uses a rotating disk 101 as a sealing operation platform, and a feeding station and a sealing station are arranged around the rotating disk 101 to improve the degree of automation. The feeding station is equipped with a feeding pipe 106 for feeding materials. In addition, multiple positioning seats 103 are provided on the rotating disk 101. The rotating disk 101 can rotate to allow the positioning seats 103 to be positioned directly below the feeding pipe 106, awaiting feeding, so that the sealing caps 02 in the feeding pipe 106 can accurately fall onto the packaging boxes 01 on the positioning seats 103. A flexible belt 110 is provided at the bottom of the feeding pipe 106. Several insertion teeth 111 are evenly arranged on the outer surface of the flexible belt 110, and the distance between adjacent insertion teeth 111 is greater than or equal to the thickness of one sealing cap 02, and less than the thickness of two sealing caps 02.
