[0053] This utility model discloses a document packaging device. The envelope delivery module 2 transports the envelope to a first position, the envelope conveyor line 1 transports the envelope to a second position, the envelope opening module 3 opens the envelope's seal, the printing module 6 prints the document, and then transports the document to a ticket platform 62. A gripping and translating device moves the document from the ticket platform 62 to a document conveyor line 5, which transports the document to an envelope feeding module 4. The envelope conveyor line 1 transports the envelope to a third position, the envelope feeding module 4 fills the document into the envelope, the envelope conveyor line 1 transports the envelope to a fourth position, and the envelope closing module 8 closes the envelope containing the document. This utility model's document packaging device automatically transports the printed document to the envelope feeding module 4, exhibiting a high degree of automation.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 1Envelope conveyor line 1 transports documents laterally, while envelope issuing module 2 and document conveyor line 5 are located on the same longitudinal side of envelope conveyor line 1. Printing module 6 is located on the side of document conveyor line 5 opposite to envelope issuing module 2.

[0055] The ticket conveyor line and the envelope dispensing module 2 are located on the same longitudinal side of the envelope conveyor line 1, which reduces the overall lateral size of the equipment and facilitates placement. The printing module 6 is located on the side of the ticket conveyor line 5 away from the envelope dispensing module 2, which avoids interference between the printing module 6 and the envelope dispensing module 2, and allows printing paper to be loaded at a position away from the envelope dispensing module 2.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 1 Multiple printing modules 6 are arranged along the conveying direction of the ticket conveyor line 5. Multiple ticket gripping and conveying devices 7 are also provided, their number matching the number of printing modules 6. The diagram shows three printing modules 6. The arrangement of multiple printing modules 6 along the conveying direction of the ticket conveyor line 5 ensures that the ticket holders 62 of each printing module 6 are adjacent to the ticket conveyor line 5, facilitating the transport of tickets by the ticket gripping and conveying devices 7. Accordingly, three ticket gripping and conveying devices 7 are provided. Figure 1 Only one of them is shown in the image.

Moving the tickets by the gripping and translating suction cup 71 will not damage the tickets.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 2 The gripping and translational drive mechanism 72 includes a horizontal drive mechanism 721 and a vertical drive mechanism 722. The vertical drive mechanism 722 is connected to the gripping and translational suction cup 71 and is used to drive the gripping and translational suction cup 71 to move vertically. The horizontal drive mechanism 721 is connected to the vertical drive mechanism 722 and is used to drive the vertical drive mechanism 722 and the gripping and translational suction cup 71 to move horizontally. With the above structure, the gripping and translational suction cup 71 can be controlled to move horizontally and vertically, smoothly moving the ticket from the ticket platform 62 to the ticket conveyor line 5.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 2 The envelope loading module 4 includes an upper suction assembly 41 and a fork-shaped robotic arm 42. The upper suction assembly 41 is located above the envelope conveyor line 1 and is vertically movable, used to open the envelopes. The fork-shaped robotic arm 42 is located at one end of the document conveyor line 5 near the envelope conveyor line 1 and is movable, used to fork the documents into the envelopes. The upper suction assembly 41 opens the envelope opening, and the fork-shaped robotic arm 42 forks the documents into the envelope. Using this structure, documents can be automatically loaded into envelopes.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The forklift robot 42 is arranged to move longitudinally. The envelope feeding module 4 also includes a positioning mechanism 44, which is located on the side of the forklift robot 42 near the envelope conveyor line 1. The positioning mechanism 44 is arranged to move vertically, so that the edge of the document near the envelope is arranged laterally. With the above structure, the document can be parallel to the envelope, which facilitates the smooth entry of the document into the envelope.

[0062] Please refer to Figure 2 The envelope module 4 also includes a camera verification component 43, which is located vertically between the suction component 41 and the fork robot arm 42, and is used to photograph the documents pre-filled into the envelope. The camera verification component 43 can photograph and verify the documents pre-filled into the envelope.

[0063] Please refer to Figure 2 The ticket gripping and conveying device 7 is equipped with a camera assembly 73, which is located above the ticket conveyor line 5 and is used to photograph the tickets placed on the ticket conveyor line 5. The camera assembly 73 can photograph and verify the tickets placed on the ticket conveyor line 5.

[0068] The conveyor wheel assembly 63 pulls the ticket from the printer 61 exit to the ticket tray 62. The gripping and translational drive mechanism 72 drives the gripping and translational suction cup 71 to move the ticket on the ticket tray 62 onto the ticket conveyor line 5. The camera assembly 73 photographs and verifies the ticket placed on the ticket conveyor line 5. The ticket conveyor line 5 conveys the ticket to the envelope module 4, where the camera verification assembly 43 photographs and verifies the ticket entering the envelope.

[0069] Positioning mechanism 44 positions the document along the lateral side edge of the envelope. Envelope conveyor line 1 transports the envelope to the third position, suction assembly 41 opens the envelope opening, and fork-shaped robotic arm 42 inserts the document into the envelope.

[0070] Envelope conveyor 1 transports the envelope to the fourth position, and envelope closing module 8 closes the envelope containing the document.
