Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automated robotic arm technology, specifically relating to a corner-sealing robotic arm for nanofiber reinforced cardboard boxes. Background Technology

[0002] A corner-sealing robot for nanofiber reinforced cartons is mainly used for corner-sealing processing of high-strength nanofiber reinforced cartons. With the continuous improvement of packaging material performance requirements, nanofiber reinforced cartons are widely used due to their higher strength and toughness. However, their complex structure and special materials place higher demands on the sealing process. Traditional manual or semi-automatic sealing methods have significant shortcomings in terms of clamping and positioning, motion repeatability, and surface protection, making it difficult to meet the demands of high-quality and high-efficiency production.

[0003] In existing technologies, traditional corner binding operations for cartons mostly rely on manual assistance or simple clamping equipment, which suffers from problems such as inaccurate positioning, unstable clamping, and low production efficiency, making it difficult to meet the demands of the modern packaging industry for high-precision, high-speed, and automated production. Especially when handling high-strength, easily deformable nanofiber reinforced cartons, traditional devices are prone to causing damage to the carton surface or deviations in the binding position, affecting the quality and appearance consistency of the finished product.

[0024] Example

[0025] Reference Figures 1-4 This embodiment of the present invention provides a corner-sealing robot for nanofiber reinforced cardboard boxes, comprising:

[0026] The load-bearing mechanism 100 includes a fastener 101;

[0027] The drive mechanism 200 is mounted on the carrier mechanism 100 and is used to automatically clamp and edge-wrap the corners of the carton. It includes an adjustment component 201 and a clamping component 202.

[0028] Specifically, the load-bearing mechanism 100 includes a fixing member 101. The fixing member 101 is provided with a base 1011 and a fixing frame 1012. The base 1011 is used to connect with an external robotic arm, and the fixing frame 1012 is provided on the base 1011 to fix the various components of the drive mechanism 200.

[0029] It should be noted that the fixing component 101 in the bearing mechanism 100 is stably connected to the external robotic arm or installation platform through the base 1011, ensuring that the overall structure remains stable during operation; the fixing frame 1012 serves as the installation base for each component of the drive mechanism 200, has good load-bearing capacity and structural strength, and provides reliable support and positioning for the adjustment component 201 and the clamping component 202.

[0030] Specifically, the adjustment component 201 includes a first cylinder 2011 and an adjustment rod 2012. The first cylinder 2011 is installed inside the fixed frame 1012, and the adjustment rod 2012 is connected to the output end of the first cylinder 2011 to adjust the spatial position and angle of the clamping component 202 to adapt to the corner edge binding requirements of cartons of different sizes.

[0031] It should be noted that the first cylinder 2011 in the adjustment component 201 serves as a power source and can control the adjustment rod 2012 to extend and retract according to preset parameters or sensor feedback signals, thereby driving the clamping component 202 to adjust its position and angle in space, adapting to the corner edge wrapping requirements of cartons of different sizes and specifications, and improving the versatility and automation adaptability of the equipment.

[0032] Specifically, the clamping assembly 202 includes a second cylinder 2021 and a pneumatic gripper 2022. The second cylinder 2021 is connected to the adjusting rod 2012 and is used to drive the pneumatic gripper 2022 to open and close, so as to achieve precise clamping and positioning of the corner of the carton.

[0033] It should be noted that the clamping component 202 drives the pneumatic gripper 2022 through the second cylinder 2021 to achieve the opening and closing control of the clamping action, which has a fast response speed and stable and reliable action. This component can be linked with the production line control system to achieve automatic identification and precise positioning of the corner of the carton, ensuring the continuity and consistency of the subsequent edge-wrapping process.

[0034] Specifically, the 2022 pneumatic gripper has a multi-finger adjustable structure with anti-slip texture or elastic padding on the surface. It can adaptively fit and clamp according to the shape of the corner of the carton, preventing damage to the carton surface and ensuring stable and reliable clamping during the edge wrapping process.

[0035] It should be noted that the pneumatic gripper 2022 adopts a multi-finger adjustable structure design, combined with the anti-slip texture or elastic pad layer on the surface, which can provide sufficient friction to prevent slippage when gripping nanofiber reinforced cartons, and effectively avoid damage to the surface of the cartons. It is especially suitable for processing high-strength and high-precision packaging materials.

[0036] Specifically, the robotic arm adopts a modular design, with each functional component connected through quick-change interfaces for easy maintenance and replacement. The adjustment component 201 and the clamping component 202 work together to achieve efficient and high-precision edge-wrapping of the corners of nanofiber reinforced cartons, meeting the needs of automated production lines for continuous processing.

[0037] It should be noted that the robotic arm adopts a modular design concept, and the functional components are connected through standardized quick-change interfaces, which facilitates daily maintenance, replacement and functional expansion. The collaborative control mechanism between the adjustment component 201 and the clamping component 202 can be uniformly managed by a PLC or industrial computer to achieve efficient and high-precision automated operation of the corner edge wrapping process of nanofiber reinforced carton, meeting the needs of modern intelligent packaging production lines for flexible and continuous production.

[0038] In use, the robotic arm is first installed on the end of the robotic arm of the automated packaging production line via the base 1011 in the supporting mechanism 100, ensuring the overall structure is stable and reliable. The fixed frame 1012 serves as a support platform, used to fix the adjustment component 201 and clamping component 202 in the drive mechanism 200, providing a basic guarantee for subsequent edge-wrapping operations. After the drive mechanism 200 is started, the first cylinder 2011 in the adjustment component 201 extends and retracts according to the control system command, driving the adjustment rod 2012 to move, thereby adjusting the spatial position and angle of the clamping component 202. This adjustment function can adapt to nanofiber reinforced cartons of different sizes and specifications, improving the applicability and flexible production capability of the equipment. When the robotic arm positions the robotic arm above the corner of the carton to be edge-wrapped, the clamping component 202 begins to work. The clamping component 202 consists of a second cylinder 2021 and a pneumatic gripper 2022, where the second cylinder 2021 controls the opening and closing action of the pneumatic gripper 2022 to achieve precise clamping of the corner of the carton. The 2022 pneumatic gripper features a multi-finger adjustable structure and anti-slip textures or elastic pads on its gripping surface. This ensures gripping stability during clamping and effectively prevents damage to the carton surface. It is particularly suitable for high-strength, easily deformable nanofiber reinforced carton materials.

[0039] In summary, by setting up a linkage structure between the carrying mechanism 100 and the driving mechanism 200, automatic clamping and precise positioning of the corners of the carton are achieved; the adjustment component 201 improves the space adaptability, and the pneumatic gripper 2022 has anti-slip and buffer functions to effectively prevent damage to the carton; the overall modular design enhances the stability and maintainability of the equipment, thereby solving key technical problems such as low automation, unstable clamping, and poor adaptability of traditional edge-sealing equipment.
