Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging box sorting technology, and more specifically, to an environmentally friendly packaging box semi-finished product sorting device. Background Technology

[0002] Sorting is a crucial step in the production process of packaging boxes. By replacing traditional manual operations with automated sorting devices, sorting time can be shortened, production efficiency can be improved, product quality can be guaranteed, production costs can be reduced, and the smooth operation of packaging box production can be ensured.

[0003] Existing environmentally friendly packaging box semi-finished product sorting devices use conveyor belts or vibrating discs to sort and transport the boxes. Due to the low density of these boxes, they are prone to shifting or tipping over, often resulting in misaligned stacking and sticking together on the production line. Traditional mechanical sorting devices struggle to accurately locate and grasp them, requiring frequent manual intervention. Sorting equipment primarily uses suction cup robotic arms to sort the randomly stacked thin-walled environmentally friendly packaging boxes. However, some boxes are breathable or have functional holes, making the suction cups prone to failure due to the high permeability of the material, thus reducing the sorting efficiency of the semi-finished environmentally friendly packaging boxes. Therefore, a new environmentally friendly packaging box semi-finished product sorting device is needed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0010] Beneficial effects:

[0011] 1. In this utility model, the hollow thin-walled structure of the outer shell, combined with a 30° inclined plate, forms a stable basic frame. Through the cooperation of horizontal positioning spring one and horizontal positioning roller one, the horizontal offset of the packaging box can be automatically corrected. At the same time, horizontal positioning spring two and horizontal positioning roller two maintain the positioning of the environmentally friendly packaging box semi-finished product on the horizontal plane. Vertical positioning spring one and vertical positioning roller one effectively solve the problem of stacking misalignment of packaging boxes, while vertical positioning spring two and vertical positioning roller two maintain the position of the environmentally friendly packaging box semi-finished product in the vertical direction.
