Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of paper tube manufacturing technology, and in particular to an automatic paper tube packaging device. Background Technology
[0002] In the production process, paper tubes are first processed into long cylindrical shapes, and then cut into short paper tubes of fixed length according to the required length. Finally, the short paper tubes are stacked and collected, and then transported to the next processing site. However, in the current paper tube packaging process, manual sorting is mostly used. Multiple paper tubes are stacked manually and then tied or placed into boxes. This is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In addition, because the paper tubes are cylindrical, they are not easy to accurately position when packing, making the work cumbersome and seriously restricting production efficiency.

[0006] The storage tube assembly includes a feeding conveyor belt fixed to the left end of the housing and arranged with the conveying direction facing the inside of the housing, used to convey paper tubes with the axis arranged in the left and right directions, and an adjusting arc surface arranged on the top left end of the inner wall of the storage tube cavity.

[0008] More preferably, the tube assembly includes a second sliding rail fixed above the housing and arranged in the left-right direction of the housing, a second lifting motor slidably arranged on the second sliding rail in the left-right direction, a frame fixedly framed on the outer wall of the second lifting motor, and a first linear motor fixed on the sliding rail located behind the second lifting motor and arranged in the left-right direction of the housing.
[0009] More preferably, the sidewall of the frame is fixedly connected to the output slider on the first linear motor, the lower end of the output shaft of the second lifting motor is fixedly connected to the upper side of the housing, and the upper part of the output shaft of the first lifting motor extends into the output shaft of the second lifting motor.
[0010] More preferably, the box-moving assembly includes a base plate fixed below the housing and arranged in the left-right direction of the housing, a second linear motor fixed on the base plate and arranged in the left-right direction of the housing, and three limiting blocks respectively fixed on the output slider of the second linear motor at positions corresponding to the front and rear sides and the left side of the box.
[0011] More preferably, the horizontal plate is provided with a plurality of insertion holes spaced apart along the left and right direction, and the upper end of the tube plate is fixedly provided with studs that pass through the corresponding insertion holes. The studs and the horizontal plate are detachably connected by fastening nuts provided on the studs.
[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] 1. This utility model uses a storage tube assembly to vertically stack paper tube segments fed into the storage tube cavity from the feeding conveyor belt. Then, a material transfer assembly forms an external support on the inner wall of the lowest paper tube segment in the same column, so that the lowest paper tube segment and the support tube are relatively fixed, thereby driving the paper tube group in the same column to move synchronously and be sent into the box below from the discharge hole for collection and packaging.
[0014] 2. This utility model uses a discharge assembly to drive the paper tubes in the same row to move down synchronously and be conveyed to the bottom of the box, thereby preventing the paper tubes from falling naturally and causing them to deviate from each other, resulting in messy storage.
[0015] 3. In this utility model, as the tube alignment plate moves to the left within the storage cavity, it applies a pushing force to the left side of the inner wall of the storage cavity to the paper tubes in the same row. This causes the left and right sides of each paper tube in the same row to be clamped by the tube alignment plate and the inner wall of the storage cavity, respectively, thus keeping them coaxially placed.

[0027] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the device includes a housing 1 arranged in the left-right direction, a storage cavity 2 located inside the housing 1, a storage tube assembly 3 located at the left end of the housing 1 for stacking the cut paper tubes vertically in the left end of the storage cavity 2, a discharge hole 4 located at the right end of the housing 1, a box moving assembly 5 located below the housing 1 for moving the storage box cavity to the discharge hole 4, a material moving assembly 6 movably located on the housing 1 in the left-right direction for moving the rows of paper tubes synchronously toward the discharge hole 4, and a tube loading assembly 7 located on the housing 1 for loading the rows of paper tubes into the box.
[0029] The storage tube assembly 3 includes a feeding conveyor belt 31 fixed on the left end of the housing 1 and arranged with the conveying direction facing the inside of the housing 1, and used to convey paper tubes with the axis arranged in the left and right directions, and an adjusting arc surface 32 arranged on the top left end of the inner wall of the storage tube cavity 2.
[0030] The material transfer assembly 6 includes a first lifting motor 61 movably mounted on the housing 1 along the left-right direction, a movable plate 62 fixed to the lower end of the output shaft of the first lifting motor 61, a housing 63 surrounding the first lifting motor 61, a fixed plate 64 located below the movable plate 62, a pair of fixing strips 65 respectively located on the left and right outer walls of the fixed plate 64 for fixing and connecting the housing 63 and the fixed plate 64, a pair of lower rotating parts 66 respectively rotatably mounted on the front and rear sides of the outer wall of the fixed plate 64, a pair of support tubes 67 respectively rotatably mounted on the free ends of the lower rotating parts 66, and a pair of parts rotatably connected at one end to the support tubes 67. The upper rotating member 68 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the corresponding side of the movable plate 62 at the other end; a pair of rotating shafts 69 are respectively fixed on the left and right sides of the fixed plate 64 and pass through the middle section of the lower rotating member 66 in the left and right direction; a vertical plate 610 is fixed on the lower right side of the outer shell 63 in the vertical direction of the housing 1; a first sliding rail 611 is on the right side of the vertical plate 610 in the vertical direction of the housing 1; a horizontal plate 612 is slidably disposed on the right side of the vertical plate 610 in the vertical direction and slidably embedded in the first sliding rail 611 at the left end; and a tube plate 613 is detachably disposed on the lower side of the horizontal plate 612 and disposed in the vertical direction of the housing 1.
[0031] When this product is in use, the fixed plate 64 moves down to abut against the bottom of the inner wall of the storage tube cavity 2. At this time, the first lifting motor 61 is started, which drives the movable plate 62 to move downward, causing the distance between the movable plate 62 and the fixed plate 64 to decrease. This causes the lower ends of each upper rotating part 68 to move away from the axis of the movable plate 62, which drives the upper ends of the lower rotating part 66 to expand outward synchronously until the support tube part 67 abuts against the inner wall of the lowest paper tube. Relying on the friction between the support tube part 67 and the inner wall of the lowest paper tube, the paper tube assembly and the first lifting motor 61 remain relatively stationary.
[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the tube assembly 7 includes a second sliding rail 71 fixed above the housing 1 and arranged along the left and right direction of the housing 1, a second lifting motor 72 slidably arranged on the second sliding rail 71 in the left and right direction, a frame 73 fixedly framed on the outer wall of the second lifting motor 72, and a first linear motor 74 fixed on the sliding rail 71, located behind the second lifting motor 72 and arranged along the left and right direction of the housing 1.
[0033] The side wall of frame 73 is fixedly connected to the output slider on the first linear motor 74, the lower end of the output shaft of the second lifting motor 72 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the outer casing 63, and the upper part of the output shaft of the first lifting motor 61 extends into the output shaft of the second lifting motor 72.
[0034] When this product is in use, the second lifting motor 72 drives the first lifting motor 61 located above the paper tube assembly to move downwards until the fixing plate 64 moves down to the position of abutting the bottom of the inner wall of the storage tube cavity 2. At this time, the first linear motor 74 drives the second lifting motor 72 to move to the left, causing the tube alignment plate 613 to apply a pushing force to each paper tube toward the left side of the inner wall of the storage tube cavity 2, so that each paper tube remains coaxial.
[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the box-moving assembly 5 includes a base plate 51 fixed below the housing 1 and arranged in the left-right direction of the housing 1, a second linear motor 52 fixed on the base plate 51 and arranged in the left-right direction of the housing 1, and three limiting blocks 53 respectively fixed on the output slider of the second linear motor 52 corresponding to the front and rear sides and the left side of the box.
[0036] When using this product, the box for packaging paper tubes is placed on the output slider and embedded between the limit blocks 53, and the box is moved left and right by the second linear motor 52.
[0037] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The horizontal plate 612 shown has several insertion holes 8 arranged at intervals along the left and right direction. The upper end of the tube plate 613 is fixed with studs 9 that pass through the corresponding insertion holes 8. The studs 9 and the horizontal plate 612 are detachably connected by fastening nuts 10 provided on the studs 9.
[0038] When using this product, the diameter of the paired paper tube is adjusted by inserting the stud 9 into different sockets 8, thus satisfying the use of paper tubes of different diameters.
[0039] The working principle of this device is as follows:
[0040] Step 1: The paper tube segments cut into sections in the previous process are placed on the feeding conveyor belt 31 and conveyed into the storage cavity 2. As they pass through the adjusting arc surface 32, they rotate downwards, causing their axis to rotate to a vertical up-down state and accumulate at the left end of the storage cavity 2. As multiple paper tubes are conveyed, they are continuously stacked to form a paper tube group.
[0041] Step 2: At this time, the second lifting motor 72 drives the first lifting motor 61 located above the paper tube group to move downward until the fixed plate 64 moves down to the position of abutting the bottom of the inner wall of the storage tube cavity 2. At this time, the first linear motor 74 drives the second lifting motor 72 to move to the left, causing the tube plate 613 to apply a pushing force to each paper tube towards the left side of the inner wall of the storage tube cavity 2, so that each paper tube remains coaxial.
[0042] Step 3: At this time, the first lifting motor 61 is started, which drives the movable plate 62 to move downward, causing the distance between the movable plate 62 and the fixed plate 64 to decrease. This causes the lower ends of each upper rotating component 68 to move away from the axis of the movable plate 62, driving the upper ends of the lower rotating component 66 to expand outward synchronously until the support tube component 67 abuts against the inner wall of the lowest paper tube. Relying on the friction between the support tube component 67 and the inner wall of the lowest paper tube, the paper tube assembly and the first lifting motor 61 remain relatively stationary.
[0043] Step 4: At this time, the first linear motor 74 is started, driving the second lifting motor 72 to move to the right, thereby simultaneously driving the first lifting motor 61 to move to the right to the discharge hole 4, so that the paper tube group moves synchronously with the first lifting motor 61 to the discharge hole 4, above the box. Then, the second lifting motor 72 is started, driving the material transfer component 6 to move down as a whole, extending into the box until the paper tube group is placed at the bottom of the box. Then, the first lifting motor 61 is started in reverse, driving the support tube component 67 to retract inward, disengaging from the contact point with the bottommost paper tube. Then, the second lifting motor 72 is controlled to drive the material transfer component 6 to move up, to the top of the newly stacked paper tube group. Then, the first linear motor 74 drives the material transfer component 6 to move to the top of the paper tube group. Then, the second linear motor 52 is started to drive the box to move to the left, so that the box cavity not filled by the paper tube group is placed below the discharge hole 4. The above operation is repeated to fill and pack the next row of paper tube groups.
