Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic packaging box opening technology, and in particular to a top cover opening device for a box opener. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, many items are packaged in cardboard boxes for safe transportation. For example, in the production of standard cigarettes, cardboard boxes are used to pack the finished cigarettes. Therefore, if unopened cardboard boxes are needed to pack standard cigarettes or to remove them from the boxes, the carton opening production line requires cutting the sealing tape, opening the side covers, pushing out the cigarettes, and removing the empty boxes. Taking a packaging box with left and right openings, each opening including four side covers, as an example, the outer top and bottom covers and the two inner side covers are all part of the packaging box. Opening the side covers involves opening the top, bottom, and inner side covers. Currently, the side cover opening process is done manually, resulting in low efficiency, repetitive mechanization, and high labor intensity and fatigue for workers. Therefore, it is necessary to invent a top cover opening device for a carton opening machine to automatically open the side covers in the standard cigarette removal production line, improving automation, increasing efficiency, and reducing labor intensity.

Finally, the bottom cover of the packaging box 500 is opened by the top cover opening structure 32.

[0037] The opening action of the top cover is as follows: The second movable seat 321 is pushed towards the packaging box 500, and the two second cutters 3225 are inserted and moved upward. After the two second cutters 3225 are inserted into the horizontal cut, they move in opposite directions to cut the tape at both ends of the top cover. Then, the second suction cup 326 is moved down by the second flipping plate assembly and flipped to be attracted to the outside of the top cover. After the top cover is flipped open, the suction cup 326 is released, and the second flipping plate assembly moves away from the second suction cup 326. At this time, the lower cover pressing structure 325 is activated, so that the lower cover is fully opened without affecting the lower push rod structure 324. The upper push rod structure 324 moves upward and pushes against the inside of the top cover, so that the top cover is fully opened.

[0038] 3. Finally, the inner cover of the packaging box 500 is opened by the inner cover unscrewing device 400, which realizes the automatic opening of the bottom cover, top cover and inner cover of the packaging box 500, which is convenient for the next process.

[0039] The above description is a detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present utility model. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the patent application of the present utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made under the technical spirit of the present utility model should fall within the patent scope covered by the present utility model.
