[0015] By incorporating a telescopic bracket, connecting rod, limiting top plate, limiting bolts, and mounting sleeve, the limiting top plate can limit the top of the carton. Some cartons are in a compressed, unassembled state, and multiple sets of cartons may be stacked during transport. The limiting top plate, with its adjustable tilt, can limit the cartons on the conveyor belt, pushing down the stacked cartons to avoid counting errors. The height of the limiting top plate can be adjusted according to the height of the carton. During adjustment, the telescopic bracket moves the connecting rod and is then fixed by the limiting bolts. The three sets of limiting top plates can be selected according to the width of the carton. This structure avoids stacked transport and improves counting accuracy.
[0016] The conveyor base is equipped with a telescopic cylinder, a photoelectric sensor counter, locking bolts, and fixing screws. Two sets of photoelectric sensor counters are installed on the conveyor base. The photoelectric sensor counters are arranged in front and behind each other to count the cartons conveyed on the conveyor belt twice. The light emitted by the photoelectric sensor counter shines directly on the photoelectric element. The cartons block the light once as they pass by, thus achieving counting. The detection angle and length of the telescopic cylinder can be adjusted according to the detection requirements. After adjustment, it can be fixed with locking bolts and fixing screws. This structure realizes the function of improving the counting accuracy.
[0017] The carton is conveyed by a conveyor belt with a fixed plate, a clamping screw, and a limiting baffle. During the conveying process, the limiting baffle can limit and protect the carton on the conveyor belt to prevent it from slipping. The limiting distance of the limiting baffle can be adjusted as needed. To adjust, hold the clamping screw and rotate it. The clamping screw will move the limiting baffle to the appropriate position. This structure realizes the function of convenient limiting protection. Attached Figure Description

[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, some cartons are compressed into an assembled state. During transportation, multiple cartons may be stacked. The cartons on the conveyor belt 2 can be limited by the baffle with a movable tilt angle on the limiting top plate 11, pushing down the stacked cartons to avoid counting errors. The height of the limiting top plate 11 can be adjusted according to the height of the cartons. During adjustment, the telescopic bracket 4 drives the connecting rod 10 to move and is fixed by the limiting bolt 12. The three limiting top plates 11 can be selected to limit according to the width of the cartons.
[0027] The photoelectric sensor counter 8 is connected to the PLC controller 15 by wires. The PLC controller 15 has a counting module inside. There are two sets of photoelectric sensor counters 8. The front end of the telescopic cylinder 7 is equipped with a locking bolt 13. The bottom end of the fixing screw 14 passes through the telescopic cylinder 7 and is threadedly connected to the inside of the fixing rod 6.
[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, two sets of photoelectric sensor counters 8 are installed on the conveyor seat 1.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the carton is conveyed by the conveyor belt 2. During the conveying process, the limiting baffle 9 can limit and protect the carton on the conveyor belt 2 to prevent the carton from slipping. The limiting distance of the limiting baffle 9 can be adjusted according to the requirements. When adjusting, hold the clamping screw 5 and rotate it. The clamping screw 5 will drive the limiting baffle 9 to move to the appropriate position.
[0031] Working principle: Some cartons are compressed into an assembled state. During conveying, multiple sets of cartons may be stacked. The limit plate 11, with its movable tilt baffle, can limit the cartons on the conveyor belt 2, pushing down the stacked cartons to avoid counting errors. The height of the limit plate 11 can be adjusted according to the height of the cartons. During adjustment, the telescopic bracket 4 moves the connecting rod 10 and is then fixed by the limit bolt 12. The three limit plates 11 can be selected according to the width of the cartons. The cartons are conveyed by the conveyor belt 2. During the conveying process, the limit baffle 9 can limit and protect the cartons on the conveyor belt 2. To prevent cardboard boxes from slipping, the limiting distance of the limiting baffle 9 can be adjusted as needed. During adjustment, hold the clamping screw 5 and rotate it. The clamping screw 5 will move the limiting baffle 9 to the appropriate position. The photoelectric sensor counter 8 is arranged in front and behind to perform two counts on the cardboard boxes conveyed on the conveyor belt 2. The light emitted by the photoelectric sensor counter 8 shines directly on the photoelectric element. The cardboard box blocks the light once it passes by, thus achieving counting. The detection angle and length of the telescopic cylinder 7 can be adjusted according to the detection requirements. After adjustment, it can be fixed with the locking bolt 13 and the fixing screw 14. This structure realizes the function of improving the counting accuracy.
