Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cardboard box production technology, and specifically relates to a high-efficiency cardboard box folding device. Background Technology

[0002] A cardboard box is a three-dimensional shape, which is composed of a number of facets that are moved, stacked, folded and surrounded. In a three-dimensional structure, the facets play a role in dividing space. Cutting, rotating and folding the facets of different parts will result in different emotional expressions. When constructing the display facets of a cardboard box, attention should be paid to the connection between the display facet, sides, top and bottom, as well as the setting of packaging information elements.

[0003] A search revealed that in the prior art, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN221067327U, authorized on June 4, 2024, discloses a high-efficiency cardboard box folding device for cardboard box processing. The device includes a base, an adjusting and pressing component in the middle of the base, a lifting box fixedly connected to the bottom right side of the base, a fixed plate slidably connected to the middle left side of the lifting box, a sliding plate fixedly connected to the tail right side of the fixed plate, a belt fixedly connected inside the sliding plate, a wheel slidably connected to the inner circumference of the belt, and a motor rotatably connected inside the wheel. In this invention, the lifting mechanism allows for height adjustment of the folding device, enabling free height adjustment during folding without affecting the overall height. The pressing and adjusting mechanism allows for pressing and adjusting of the cardboard box, resulting in a more varied folding shape and enhanced practicality.

[0004] However, the device still has the following drawbacks: Since the carton folding device cannot be adjusted according to the specifications of the carton, it cannot adapt to different sizes of cartons. This means that every time the carton specifications are changed, the entire folding device may need to be replaced or tedious manual adjustments may need to be made. This greatly reduces the flexibility of the equipment, increases the complexity of operation and time costs. When the carton specifications change, if the folding device cannot adapt quickly, it is necessary to stop the machine for adjustment, which will lead to production interruption and reduce overall production efficiency. Manual adjustment may also introduce human error, further affecting production efficiency and product quality. Utility Model Content

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0025] This utility model embodiment provides a high-efficiency carton folding device, including a base plate 1, exemplarily, such as... Figures 1-6 As shown.

[0026] A top plate 2 is provided on the top of the base plate 1. Long rods 3 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the top plate 2. The bottom of the long rods 3 is fixedly connected to the base plate 1. A first electric telescopic rod 4 is embedded in the top of the top plate 2. A circular block 5 is drivenly connected to the output end of the first electric telescopic rod 4. A workbench 6 is provided on the top of the base plate 1. A fixing block 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the workbench 6. The bottom of the fixing block 7 is fixedly connected to the base plate 1. A placement platform 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the workbench 6. Four drive mechanisms 10 are provided on the top of the workbench 6. An adjustment plate 11 and an adjustment mechanism 12 are provided on the top of the drive mechanisms 10.

[0027] The drive mechanism 10 includes a motor 101 fixedly connected to the top of the worktable 6, such as... Figures 1-6 As shown.

[0028] The output end of the motor 101 is connected to a threaded rod 102. One end of the threaded rod 102 is rotatably connected to a stop block 103. The bottom of the stop block 103 is fixedly connected to the workbench 6. The surface of the threaded rod 102 is threadedly connected to a threaded block 104. The top of the threaded block 104 is fixedly connected to a square plate 105.

[0029] Specifically, by setting up the drive mechanism 10, the control motor 101 drives the threaded rod 102 and the threaded block 104 to move precisely, and the adjustment plate 11 can accurately align with the crease of the carton. This precision helps to ensure the consistency and aesthetics of the carton folding, improves product quality, and allows the folding device to adapt to cartons of different sizes without replacing equipment or making a lot of adjustments, increasing equipment utilization and reducing production costs.

[0030] The adjustment mechanism 12 includes a first protrusion 121 fixedly connected to the bottom of the adjustment plate 11, such as Figures 1-6 As shown.

[0031] Both sides of the first protrusion 121 are fixedly connected to short rods 122. The surface of the short rods 122 is fitted with a second protrusion 123. The bottom of the second protrusion 123 is fixedly connected to the square plate 105. The surface of the short rods 122 is fitted with a gear 124. The top of the square plate 105 is fixedly connected to a second electric telescopic rod 125. The output end of the second electric telescopic rod 125 is drivenly connected to a square block 126. The top of the square block 126 is fixedly connected to a toothed plate 127, which meshes with the gear 124.

[0032] Specifically, through the transmission of gear 124 and short rod 122, the adjustment mechanism 12 can drive the adjustment plate 11 to make arc-shaped movements. This movement mode is more in line with the actual needs of carton folding, because the carton often needs to undergo a certain degree of bending and deformation during the folding process. Arc-shaped movements can better adapt to this deformation, thereby avoiding damage or deformation of the carton during the folding process.

[0033] Each of the four corners of the bottom of the base plate 1 is fixedly connected to a support leg 9, and the four support legs 9 are arranged symmetrically. Figures 1-6 As shown.

[0034] Two limiting rods 13 are fixedly connected to one side of the stop block 103. A third protrusion 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the limiting rod 13. The bottom of the third protrusion 14 is fixedly connected to the worktable 6. A limiting block 15 is slidably connected to the surface of the limiting rod 13. The top of the limiting block 15 is fixedly connected to the square plate 105. Two anti-collision pads 16 are fixedly connected to the top of the square plate 105. A mounting seat 17 is sleeved on the surface of the motor 101. A bolt is threadedly connected to the top of the mounting seat 17. The motor 101 and the worktable 6 are detachably connected by bolts.

[0035] Specifically, the support leg 9 provides support for the folding device, improving its stability during placement. The combination of the limiting rod 13, the third protrusion 14, and the limiting block 15 guides the square plate 105, improving its stability during movement. The anti-collision pad 16 supports the adjusting plate 11, improving its stability during placement. The mounting base 17 and bolts secure the motor 101 and facilitate disassembly and maintenance by the user.

[0036] The working principle of the efficient cardboard box folding device proposed in this embodiment is as follows:

[0037] In use, the user places an folded cardboard box on top of the placement platform 8, then activates the first electric telescopic rod 4. The output end of the first electric telescopic rod 4 drives the circular block 5 to move, bringing the circular block 5 into contact with the cardboard box, thus fixing the position of the circular block 5. Then, the motor 101 is activated, and the output end of the motor 101 drives the threaded rod 102 to rotate. When the threaded rod 102 rotates, it drives the threaded block 104 to move. When the threaded block 104 moves, it drives the square plate 105 to move. The square plate 105 causes the limiting block 15 to slide on the surface of the limiting rod 13. When the square plate 105 moves, it drives the adjusting plate 11 to move through the adjusting mechanism 12. When the adjusting plate 11 moves to the crease of the carton, the second electric telescopic rod 125 is activated. The output end of the second electric telescopic rod 125 drives the square block 126 to move. The square block 126 drives the toothed plate 127 to move. When the toothed plate 127 moves, it causes the gear 124 to rotate. The gear 124 drives the short rod 122 to rotate. The short rod 122 drives the first protrusion 121 to rotate. The first protrusion 121 drives the adjusting plate 11 to make an arc-shaped movement, thereby achieving the purpose of folding the carton.
