Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of goji berry packaging, and in particular to an automated goji berry gift box packaging device. Background Technology

[0002] Goji berries are rich in polysaccharides, carotene, vitamins, and other nutrients, and are widely used in traditional Chinese medicine, health foods, and functional foods (such as goji berry juice and goji berry cakes). Goji berry gift sets, with their "health benefits and cultural connotations," have become a popular choice for festive occasions (such as the Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival) and business gifts. Canned goji berry gift sets generally use food-grade plastic or metal cans, which are highly airtight, moisture-proof, and antioxidant, making them suitable for long-term storage. The cans can be printed with exquisite patterns to enhance the product's quality. Boxed goji berry gift sets are generally made of paper or hard boxes, and can be equipped with internal dividers to flexibly combine different categories (such as goji berry juice, dried goji berries, and goji berry flower tea). They are lower in cost and suitable for lightweight and diversified combinations. Traditional packing equipment is usually designed for a single packaging form. When changing between canned and boxed products, manual adjustment of the mechanical structure is required, which is time-consuming and cannot meet the needs of rapid switching between multiple product categories. Therefore, there is a particular need for an automated goji berry gift packing device.

[0003] However, existing goji berry gift packaging equipment is mostly designed for either canning or boxing. For example, canning equipment relies on molds of fixed sizes for positioning, while boxing equipment requires customized gift box slots. When switching from canning to boxing, the entire set of fixtures, molds, and even the entire production line need to be replaced, which increases investment costs. The rigid fixtures of existing equipment are not compatible with soft packaging, which can easily cause surface scratches and affect the packing efficiency of goji berry gift packs.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automated goji berry gift box packaging device, including a first frame 1, a boxing mechanism 2 is provided on one side of the first frame 1, and a transmission mechanism 3 is provided on the other side of the first frame 1;

[0022] The packing mechanism 2 includes a second bracket 201, a first drive motor 202, a first lead screw 203, a sliding plate 204, a guide rail 205, a fixed shaft 206, a fixed plate 207, a second drive motor 208, a second lead screw 209, a fixing block 210, a connecting rod 211, an adsorption plate 212, a pressure holding chamber 213, a spring 214, a sealing valve 215, a filter screen 216, a connecting pipe 217, a vacuum pump 218, a unfolding frame 219, and a laser sensor 220. The second bracket 201 is fixedly connected to one side of the first frame 1, and the first drive motor 202 is fixedly connected to one end of the second bracket 201. The output end of the first drive motor 202 is fixedly connected to the first lead screw 203, and a sliding plate is threaded onto one side of the surface of the first lead screw 203. 204. A fixed shaft 206 is slidably connected to one end of the surface of the sliding plate 204. A fixed plate 207 is fixedly connected to one end of the fixed shaft 206. A second drive motor 208 is fixedly connected to one end of the fixed plate 207. A second lead screw 209 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second drive motor 208. A fixed block 210 is fixedly connected to the other end of the second lead screw 209. A connecting rod 211 is movably sleeved at one end of the fixed block 210. An adsorption plate 212 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 211. A pressure-holding chamber 213 is opened inside the adsorption plate 212. A connecting pipe 217 is fixedly connected to one end of the adsorption plate 212. A vacuum pump 218 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting pipe 217. During use, the pressure can be maintained by starting the vacuum pump 218. When cavity 213 reaches the set negative pressure value, the first drive motor 202 drives the first lead screw 203 to rotate, moving the sliding plate 204 along the guide rail 205 to the initial position. The second drive motor 208 drives the second lead screw 209 to rotate, causing the fixed block 210 and connecting rod 211 to raise the adsorption plate 212 to the high position. The sliding plate 204 moves to the goji berry gift bag's stopping area. The laser sensor 220 detects the position and height of the goji berry gift bag. The vacuum pump 218 evacuates the pressure-holding cavity 213 through the connecting pipe 217. The sealing valve 215 closes under the negative pressure, the spring 214 is compressed, and the adsorption plate 212 adsorbs the top of the goji berry gift bag. The second drive motor 208 drives the adsorption plate 212 to rise, and the first drive motor 202 drives the sliding plate 204 along the guide rail 205 to the initial position. The guide rail 205 moves to the packing station, where workers need to place the cartons sequentially on the conveyor belt 317 of the transmission mechanism. The laser sensor 220 confirms and controls the positional accuracy of the cartons. The adsorption plate 212 descends, and at the same time, the unfolding frame 219 opens the sides of the cartons, allowing the goji berry gift packs to be placed inside. The vacuum pump 218 briefly depressurizes, and the cartons separate from the adsorption plate 212. The adsorption plate 212, which is set above the packing station, grabs the goji berry gift packs from the upstream conveyor line and places them into the cartons in a 1×3 arrangement. At the same time, the integrated weight detection module ensures that the weight of each carton meets the standard. The adsorption plate 212 rises, and the sliding plate 204 returns to the initial position, ready to grab the next goji berry gift pack. The filter screen 216 continuously filters external impurities from the pressure holding chamber 213 to prevent the vacuum pump 218 from becoming clogged.

[0023] The transmission mechanism 3 includes a third drive motor 301, a first transmission shaft 302, a first sprocket 303, a chain 304, a chain plate 305, a second sprocket 306, a second transmission shaft 307, a first connecting plate 308, a first bolt 309, a first baffle 310, a second connecting plate 311, a second bolt 312, a second baffle 313, a third bracket 314, a fourth drive motor 315, a first roller 316, a conveyor belt 317, and a second roller 318. A first connecting plate 308 is fixedly connected to one end of the first frame 1, a first bolt 309 is slidably connected to one end of the first connecting plate 308, and a first baffle 310 is fixedly connected to one end of the first bolt 309. A second connecting plate 311 is fixedly connected to one end of the surface of the chain plate 305, a second bolt 312 is slidably connected to one end of the surface of the second connecting plate 311, and a second baffle 313 is fixedly connected to one end of the second bolt 312. During use, the chain plate 305 moves to the packing station under the drive of the chain 304. The first baffle 310 and the second baffle 313 adjust the distance between them through the first bolt 309 and the second bolt 312 to match the width of the goji berry gift bag. The worker places the goji berry gift bag on the second connecting plate 311. The first baffle 310 and the second baffle 313 ensure that the goji berry gift bag is centered. The third drive motor 301 drives the first transmission shaft 302 to rotate, which drives the chain plate 305 forward through the first sprocket 303 and the chain 304. The speed can be adjusted according to the packing rhythm. The goji berry gift bag on the chain plate 305 is transported to the packing area. The fourth drive motor 315 drives the first roller 316, which drives the conveyor belt 317 to run synchronously, receiving the goji berry gift bag on the chain plate 305 and entering the packing station. The packed goji berry gift bag is transported to the downstream process through the conveyor belt 317. The second roller 318 supports the conveyor belt 317 to ensure smooth transport.

[0024] Furthermore, a guide rail 205 is fixedly connected to one end of the second bracket 201, and a spring 214 is fixedly connected to one side of the surface of the pressure-holding cavity 213. Through the arrangement of the second bracket 201 and the guide rail 205, the guide rail, in conjunction with the slider, can ensure the linear motion accuracy of the sliding plate and reduce the offset of the carton gripping. Through the arrangement of the pressure-holding cavity 213 and the spring 214, the spring provides a buffering and reset effect for the sealing valve 215 when the suction plate adsorbs the carton, thus avoiding sealing failure.

[0025] Furthermore, a sealing valve 215 is slidably connected to the other side of the surface of the pressure holding chamber 213, and a filter screen 216 is fixedly connected to the other side of the surface of the pressure holding chamber 213. Through the setting of the pressure holding chamber 213 and the sealing valve 215, the sealing valve automatically closes under negative pressure and can still maintain a short-term adsorption force when the power is off to prevent the carton from falling. Through the setting of the pressure holding chamber 213 and the filter screen 216, the filter screen intercepts paper scraps and other impurities, extending the life of the vacuum pump.

[0026] Furthermore, both sides of the fixing block 210 are fixedly connected to the unfolding frame 219, and one end of the fixing block 210 is fixedly connected to the laser sensor 220. With the setting of the fixing block 210 and the unfolding frame 219, the unfolding frame opens up both sides of the carton, eliminating the need for manual pre-folding and improving packing efficiency. With the setting of the fixing block 210 and the laser sensor 220, the laser sensor detects the position of the carton in real time, automatically compensates for mechanical errors, and adapts to the size fluctuations of different batches of cartons.

[0027] Furthermore, a third drive motor 301 is fixedly connected to one side of the first frame 1. A first transmission shaft 302 is fixedly connected to the output end of the third drive motor 301. A first sprocket 303 is fixedly connected to one side of the surface of the first transmission shaft 302. A chain 304 is meshed with one side of the surface of the first sprocket 303. A chain plate 305 is fixedly connected to one side of the chain 304. A second sprocket 306 is meshed with the other side of the chain 304. A second transmission shaft 307 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the second sprocket 306. Through the arrangement of the first frame 1 and the third drive motor 301, the chain plate 305 transmits the receiving and coarse positioning of the goji berry gift pack. At the same time, the distance between the first baffle 310 and the second baffle 313 is adjusted with the first bolt 309 and the second bolt 312. Different specifications of goji berry gift packs can be switched in a short time, improving the flexibility of the production line.

[0028] Furthermore, a third support 314 is fixedly connected to one side of the first frame 1, a fourth drive motor 315 is fixedly connected to one side of the third support 314, a first roller 316 is fixedly connected to the output end of the fourth drive motor 315, and a conveyor belt 317 is attached to one side of the surface of the first roller 316. Through the arrangement of the first frame 1 and the third support 314, and the arrangement of the first frame and the conveyor belt 317, the conveyor belt 317 is suitable for accurately transporting cartons to the packing station. With the help of the chain plate 305, segmented control reduces energy waste.

[0029] Working principle: During use, the vacuum pump 218 is started to ensure that the pressure holding chamber 213 reaches the set negative pressure value. The first drive motor 202 drives the first lead screw 203 to rotate, moving the sliding plate 204 along the guide rail 205 to the initial position. The second drive motor 208 drives the second lead screw 209 to rotate, causing the fixed block 210 and connecting rod 211 to raise the adsorption plate 212 to the high position. The sliding plate 204 moves to the goji berry gift bag's stopping area. The laser sensor 220 detects the position and height of the goji berry gift bag. The vacuum pump 218 evacuates the pressure holding chamber 213 through the connecting pipe 217. Under the action of negative pressure, the sealing valve 215... When closed, spring 214 compresses, and suction cup 212 adheres to the top of the goji berry gift pack. Second drive motor 208 drives suction cup 212 upwards, while first drive motor 202 moves sliding plate 204 along guide rail 205 to the packing station. Workers place the cartons sequentially onto conveyor belt 317 of the transport mechanism. Laser sensor 220 confirms and controls the positional accuracy of the cartons. Suction cup 212 descends, and simultaneously unfolding frame 219 opens the sides of the cartons, allowing the goji berry gift pack to be placed inside. Vacuum pump 218 briefly depressurizes, separating the cartons from suction cup 212. This device, with suction cup 212 positioned above the packing station, grabs the goji berry gift pack from the upstream conveyor line. The packages are arranged in a 1x3 pattern and placed into a carton. An integrated weight detection module ensures each carton's weight meets standards. The suction plate 212 rises, and the sliding plate 204 returns to its initial position, ready to grab the next goji berry gift package. The filter screen 216 continuously filters external impurities from the pressure-holding chamber 213 to prevent blockage of the vacuum pump 218. The chain plate 305 moves to the packing station driven by the chain 304. The first baffle 310 and the second baffle 313 have their spacing adjusted using the first bolt 309 and the second bolt 312 to fit the width of the goji berry gift packages. Workers place the goji berry gift packages on the second connecting plate 311, ensuring the first baffle 310 and the second baffle 313 are centered. The third drive motor 301 drives the first transmission shaft 302 to rotate, which drives the chain plate 305 forward through the first sprocket 303 and chain 304. The speed can be adjusted according to the packing rhythm. The goji berry gift packs on the chain plate 305 are transported to the packing area. The fourth drive motor 315 drives the first roller 316, which drives the conveyor belt 317 to run synchronously, receiving the goji berry gift packs on the chain plate 305 and entering the packing station. The packed goji berry gift packs are transported to the downstream process through the conveyor belt 317. The second roller 318 supports the conveyor belt 317 to ensure smooth transport, which greatly improves the packing efficiency of the goji berry gift packs. The laser sensor 220 is model SICK DT50-P2211.
