The axis of the first functional cylinder 21 is vertically set, and the first functional cylinder 21 is used to drive the first movable plate 2 to move vertically.

[0025] Furthermore, second sliders 32 are fixedly connected to both sides of the second movable plate 3, and the second sliders 32 also match the slide groove 104, allowing the second movable plate 3 to move vertically along the slide groove 104. The second movable plate 3 is connected to the lower crossbeam 102 of the support base 1 via a second functional cylinder 31. The axis of the second functional cylinder 31 is vertically set, and the second functional cylinder 31 is used to drive the second movable plate 3 to move vertically.

[0026] The first movable plate 2 and the second movable plate 3 are arranged opposite to each other. The first movable plate 2 is provided with a first sealing structure, and the second movable plate 3 is provided with a second sealing structure. The first sealing structure and the second sealing structure are identical in structure and are arranged opposite to each other.

[0027] The first sealing structure includes a first pressure plate 4, a second pressure plate 6, and a third pressure plate 8, with the second pressure plate 6 located between the first pressure plate 4 and the third pressure plate 8. The first pressure plate 4 and the second pressure plate 6 are internally equipped with heat-melting heating elements, which are electric heating wires that generate heat when energized, thus giving the first pressure plate 4 and the second pressure plate 6 a temperature sufficient to heat-melt the packaging bag. The first pressure plate 4 and the second pressure plate 6 can achieve heat-melting sealing of the packaging bag through pressing. The third pressure plate 8 is a standard pressure block, used only to hold the packaging bag in place. In this embodiment, the length of the third pressure plate 8 is less than the lengths of both the second movable plate 3 and the second pressure plate 6.

[0028] The first pressure plate 4, the second pressure plate 6, and the third pressure plate 8 are respectively connected to the first movable plate 2 via elastic elements. Specifically, the first pressure plate 4 is connected to the first movable plate 2 via the first elastic element 9, the second pressure plate 6 is connected to the first movable plate 2 via the second elastic element 10, and the third pressure plate 8 is connected to the first movable plate 2 via the third elastic element 11.

[0029] refer to Figure 4 In this embodiment, the elastic element includes a housing 81, a sliding block 82, and a connecting rod 84. The sliding block 82 is located inside the housing 81 and is slidably connected to the housing 81. A spring 83 is provided between the first end of the sliding block 82 and the housing 81. The first end of the connecting rod 84 is fixedly connected to the second end of the sliding block 82, and the second end of the connecting rod 84 extends out of the housing 81. The housing 81 is fixedly connected to the first movable plate 2, and the second end of the connecting rod 84 is used to connect to the first pressure plate 4, the second pressure plate 6, or the third pressure plate 8. The spring 83 is in an extended state to maintain the extended state of the connecting rod 84.

[0030] The second movable plate 3 is also provided with a first pressure plate 4, a second pressure plate 6, and a third pressure plate 8 corresponding to the positions of the first movable plate 2. The first movable plate 2 and the second movable plate 3 can be brought close to each other to form two first pressure plates 4, two second pressure plates 6, and two third pressure plates 8 in contact, thereby achieving pressing.

[0031] Furthermore, a cutting blade 5 is fixedly mounted on the first movable plate 2, located between the first pressure plate 4 and the second pressure plate 6. A support plate 12 is mounted on the second movable plate 3, located between the first pressure plate 4 and the second pressure plate 6. The support plate 12 is positioned opposite the cutting blade 5, and a first groove 121 corresponding to the position of the cutting blade 5 is provided on the top of the support plate 12. The first groove 121 is used to accommodate the cutting edge of the cutting blade 5. The support plate 12 supports the cutting blade 5, and the packaging paper is cut between the support plate 12 and the cutting blade 5.

[0032] When the first movable plate 2 and the second movable plate 3 are pressed together, a first seal 151 is formed between the two first pressure plates 4, and a second seal 161 is formed between the two second pressure plates 6. The cutting knife 5 is used to cut the packaging paper between the first seal 151 and the second seal 161 to achieve separation between the two seals.

[0033] Furthermore, a perforating nail 7 is fixedly installed on the first movable plate 2, located between the second pressure plate 6 and the third pressure plate 8. A support column 13 is installed on the second movable plate 3, located between the second pressure plate 6 and the third pressure plate 8. The support column 13 is positioned opposite to the perforating nail 7 and is coaxially arranged with the perforating nail 7. The top of the support column 13 has a second groove 131 corresponding to the position of the perforating nail 7, which is used to accommodate the perforating nail 7. The support column 13 supports the perforating nail 7, and the packaging paper is perforated between the support column 13 and the perforating nail 7.

[0034] When the first movable plate 2 and the second movable plate 3 are pressed together, a second seal 161 is formed between the two second pressure plates 6. The two third pressure plates 8 press down the second packaging bag 16. The punching nail 7 is used to punch holes between the second pressure plates 6 and the third pressure plates 8, forming two ventilation holes 17 on the second packaging bag 16. The ventilation holes 17 are used for ventilation between the inside and the outer wall of the second packaging bag 16. The ventilation holes 17 are used to allow the second packaging bag 16 to breathe, preventing too much gas inside the packaging bag from causing a large volume, which helps to maintain a suitable volume of the packaging bag and facilitates the placement and transportation of the packaging bag.

[0035] When the first movable plate 2 and the second movable plate 3 are pressed together, the two first pressure plates 4, the two second pressure plates 6 and the two third pressure plates 8 first contact and press together because the spring 83 supports the connecting rod 84. The cutting knife 5 and the punching nail 7 then perform the cutting and punching work after pressing.

[0036] In this embodiment, ribs 103 are also provided on both sides of the support base 1. The ribs 103 are used to enhance the structural strength of the support base 1.

[0037] The sealing component in this embodiment is used for sealing after back sealing in an automatic packaging machine. The specific working process is as follows:

[0038] The initial state of the two first pressure plates 4, two second pressure plates 6, and two third pressure plates 8 on the sealing assembly is that they are separated. (Reference) Figure 5The packaging paper moves between the first movable plate 2 and the second movable plate 3. When the packaging paper is in the pressing position, the first functional cylinder 21 pushes the first movable plate 2 downward and the second functional cylinder 31 pushes the second movable plate 3 upward. The first movable plate 2 and the second movable plate 3 approach each other. The first pressure plate 4, the second pressure plate 6 and the third pressure plate 8 on the first movable plate 2 contact the first pressure plate 4, the second pressure plate 6 and the third pressure plate 8 on the second movable plate 3 to press the packaging paper. A first seal 151 is formed between the two first pressure plates 4 and a second seal 161 is formed between the two second pressure plates 6. The first functional cylinder 21 continues to push the first movable plate 2 downwards, and the second functional cylinder 31 continues to push the second movable plate 3 upwards. The elastic element is compressed, and the cutting blade 5 cuts the packaging paper between the first seal 151 and the second seal 161, achieving separation between the two seals to obtain the first packaging bag 15 and the second packaging bag 16. The two third pressure plates 8 press the second packaging bag 16 together. The punching pin 7 is used to punch holes between the second pressure plate 6 and the third pressure plate 8, forming two ventilation holes 17 on the second packaging bag 16. After cutting and punching are completed, the first functional cylinder 21 drives the first movable plate 2 upwards, and the second functional cylinder 31 drives the second movable plate 3 downwards. The first movable plate 2 and the second movable plate 3 move away from each other, and the first pressure plate 4, the second pressure plate 6, and the third pressure plate 8 on the first movable plate 2 separate from the first pressure plate 4, the second pressure plate 6, and the third pressure plate 8 on the second movable plate 3, returning to the initial state. The packaging paper continues to move, and the sealing assembly performs the next set of sealing work.
