Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of this utility model relate to the field of folding box technology, specifically, to a folding box device. Background Technology

[0002] In small-batch production scenarios or small workshops, manual box folding remains a common method. Operators must follow the pre-set creases on the cardboard, performing the folding actions sequentially: first, fold the first edge connecting to the bottom of the box upwards along the crease, making it perpendicular to the bottom; then, fold the two second edges connecting to the first edge inwards, ensuring they fit snugly against the first edge; next, fold the third edge connecting to the bottom, forming a side enclosure with the other two second edges; finally, fold the top of the box, connecting to the first edge, downwards to cover the top of the box, and secure it with tape, clips, or other methods to complete the box shape. During the process, operators may use simple tools such as tape dispensers and edge pressers for assistance, but the core folding actions still rely on manual labor, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production. Furthermore, prolonged operation can easily lead to operator fatigue, further reducing production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, this utility model provides a box folding device, which solves the technical problem that the box folding action in the prior art still relies on manual operation, which is difficult to meet the needs of mass production, and long-term operation is prone to personnel fatigue, further reducing production efficiency.

[0004] According to one aspect, at least one embodiment of the present invention provides a box-folding device for folding cardboard to form a box body. The cardboard includes a box bottom, a first box edge connected to the box bottom, two second box edges connected to both ends of the first box edge, a third box edge connected to the box bottom, and a box top connected to the first box edge. The box top and box bottom are respectively located on both sides of the first box edge. The box-folding device includes: The frame has a folding section; The top guide plate is located on one side of the folding position. The top guide plate can abut against the lower end of the first box edge, push the first box edge to fold upward, and simultaneously drive the two second box edges connected to the first box edge and the top of the box to fold up and be perpendicular to the bottom of the box. There are two side-push components, both of which are set on the frame. The side-push components face the second box edge after folding and can push the second box edge to fold it so that it is perpendicular to the first box edge and the bottom of the box respectively. The push assembly, mounted on the frame, is used to push the third box edge from bottom to top to fold it up and make it perpendicular to the bottom of the box.

[0005] For example, in at least one embodiment of the present invention, a folding box device is provided, which further includes a bottom adsorption component, which is disposed on the frame and located below the folding position. The bottom adsorption component can adsorb the bottom of the box, so that the bottom of the box is stably placed in the folding position.

[0006] For example, in a folding box device provided in at least one embodiment of the present invention, the two symmetrical sides of the second box edge are respectively connected to a bottom side edge and a top side edge, the bottom side edge being close to the bottom of the box and the top side edge being far away from the bottom of the box. The folding section is also equipped with a guide plate, which is used to support the two bottom sides and lift them relative to the bottom of the box.

[0007] For example, in at least one embodiment of the present invention, a folding box device further includes: third side edges connected to the two symmetrical sides of the third box edge; the folding box device also includes: There are two side push assemblies, which are set on the frame and located below the folding position. The two side push assemblies are used to push the two third side edges from bottom to top, so that the third side edges are folded and perpendicular to the third box edge. The pusher assembly can push the third box edge and simultaneously drive the two third side edges to fold, so that the third side edge is placed on the bottom side edge.

[0008] For example, in at least one embodiment of the present invention, a folding box device is provided, in which a pushing component is movably mounted on a frame; and in another embodiment, the folding box device further includes: The pushing component, which moves in the same direction as the pushing component, is mounted on the frame and located below the folding position. The pushing component and the pushing component are located on opposite sides of the folding position. The pushing component is used to contact the third side, and the pushing component is used to contact the first box edge to cooperate with the pushing component to clamp the box. The pushing component and the pushing component can move and drive the box to move.

[0009] For example, in at least one embodiment of the present invention, a folding box device further includes: two flat pushing components, both of which are mounted on the frame. The flat pushing components can move horizontally and push the top side to fold it and make it perpendicular to the second box side.

[0010] For example, in at least one embodiment of the present invention, a folding box device is provided, which further includes: an inner folding component, which has two components and is lifted and lowered on the frame. The inner folding component includes an inner folding plate. The inner folding component can be lowered and the two inner folding plates are located between two top side edges. The inner folding plates are horizontally movable and can be moved to push the top side edge towards the second box edge and make the top side edge abut against the third side edge.

[0011] For example, in at least one embodiment of the present invention, a folding box device further includes: a placement platform for placing the cardboard to be folded, the placement platform being lifted and lowered on the feeding side of the folding position; The lifting drive unit is installed on the frame and is used to drive the placement platform to rise and fall.

[0012] For example, in at least one embodiment of the present invention, a folding box device is provided, which further includes: a feeding adsorption component, which is lifted and moved horizontally on the frame, and after being moved horizontally, it can be located above the lifting platform or near the bottom adsorption component of the box, and the feeding adsorption component is used to adsorb the top of the box after it is lowered. The bottom suction component is mounted on the frame and positioned above the folding position. It can lift the cardboard by adsorbing the bottom of the box, and push the cardboard back to the folding position after it descends.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the embodiments of this utility model are as follows: In this invention, a top guide plate is installed on one side of the folding position, abutting against the lower end of the first box edge. This pushes the first box edge up, simultaneously causing the second box edge and the top to fold up as well, making the first, second, and top perpendicular to the bottom of the box. Two side-pushing components are provided, both fixed to the frame and facing the folded second box edge. A pushing action can drive the second box edge to fold up, making it perpendicular to the first box edge and the bottom of the box. A top-pushing component is installed on the frame and used to push the third box edge from bottom to top, driving the third box edge to fold up and become perpendicular to the bottom of the box, thus achieving the initial folding of the box.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, this invention provides a box-folding device that can automatically fold a cardboard 100 with a specific structure to form a complete box. It eliminates the need for manual operation of the core folding process, achieving automated processing from the cardboard 100 to the preliminarily formed box.

[0024] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown, the placement table 240 is used to store the cardboard 100 to be folded. The placement table 240 is installed on the frame 200 and located on the feeding side of the folding position 210. Its lifting movement can be achieved by the lifting drive component 250. Figure 2 As shown, the placement platform 240 is plate-shaped, and the lifting drive component 250 is a vertical conveyor belt. The placement platform 240 is set on the conveyor belt, and the lifting drive of the placement platform 240 is realized through the conveyor belt.

[0025] The feeding and adsorption assembly 1000 is mounted on the frame 200 and can be raised, lowered, and moved horizontally. As one embodiment, for example... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the frame 200 is provided with a horizontally movable chute or track, and the base for supporting the feeding adsorption assembly 1000 is movably mounted on the chute or track. An electric push rod or lead screw is provided on the frame 200 to drive the base for supporting the feeding adsorption assembly 1000 to move. A linear drive component, such as an electric push rod, cylinder, or hydraulic cylinder, is provided on the base for supporting the feeding and adsorption assembly 1000. The moving end of the linear drive component is connected to the feeding and adsorption assembly 1000, thereby driving the feeding and adsorption assembly 1000 to move up and down. The base for supporting the feeding and adsorption assembly 1000 can move horizontally to above the placement platform 240 or near the bottom adsorption assembly 1100. When it moves horizontally above the placement platform 240, the feeding and adsorption assembly 1000 can descend to adsorb the top 150 of the cardboard 100, thereby picking up the cardboard 100. It then moves further to a horizontal position near the bottom adsorption assembly 1100. When the feeding and adsorption assembly 1000 moves horizontally near the bottom adsorption assembly 1100, the bottom 110 is located below the bottom adsorption assembly 1100. The bottom adsorption assembly 1100 can descend and adsorb the bottom 110, realizing the transfer of the cardboard 100 with the feeding and adsorption assembly 1000. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the box bottom adsorption assembly 1100 has a pressure plate with an adsorption port for adsorbing the box bottom 110 through it along the height direction. After the box bottom adsorption assembly 1100 descends, the pressure plate can press the box bottom 110 onto the preset folding position 210 of the frame 200. The frame 200 has an opening at the folding position 210, the width of which is smaller than the width of the box bottom 110, allowing the box bottom 110 to be placed at the folding position 210. The bottom adsorption assembly 600 is fixed to the frame 200 and located in the opening below the folding position 210, adsorbing and fixing the box bottom 110, so that the cardboard 100 stays stably at the folding position 210.

[0026] The top guide plate 220 is installed on one side of the folding position 210 and can abut against the lower end of the first box edge 120 of the cardboard 100, pushing the first box edge 120 to fold up, simultaneously driving the second box edge 130 and the top box 150 to fold up as well, so that the first box edge 120, the second box edge 130, and the top box 150 are perpendicular to the bottom box 110. Two side push components 400 are provided, both fixed on the frame 200, facing the folded second box edge 130 (at this time, the second box edge 130 is perpendicular to the bottom box 110 and parallel to the first box edge 120), which can push the second box edge 130 to fold up, making it perpendicular to the first box edge 120 and the bottom box 110. The push component 500 is installed on the frame 200 and is used to push the third box edge 140 from bottom to top, driving the third box edge 140 to fold up and be perpendicular to the bottom box 110.

[0027] The second box side 130 is symmetrically connected to the bottom side 131 and the top side 132 on both sides, and the third box side 140 is symmetrically connected to two third side sides 141 on both sides. The frame 200 is also provided with a bottom side guide plate 230 at the folding position 210. The bottom side guide plate 230 is used to support and lift the bottom side 131, so that the bottom side 131 can be tilted relative to the box bottom 110, assisting the folding of the bottom side 131. After the bottom side 131 is tilted, the side push component 4 The second box edge 130 can be pushed to fold towards the box bottom 110, and simultaneously the raised bottom side edge 131 is placed on the box bottom 110. The frame 200 is also provided with a side push component 800 at the folding position 210. The side push component 800 is installed on the frame 200 and located below the folding position 210. Corresponding to the third side edge 141 of the cardboard 100, it can push the third side edge 141 from bottom to top, driving the third side edge 141 to fold and be perpendicular to the third box edge 140.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, the frame 200 is also equipped with two flat pushing components 300. The flat pushing components 300 can move horizontally to push the top side 132 of the cardboard 100 to fold it and make it perpendicular to the second box edge 130. The flat pushing components 300 are provided with inclined pushing parts and are driven to move by electric push rods or other linear drive devices.

[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, the frame 200 is also provided with two inner folding components 700. The inner folding components 700 are installed on the frame 200 and can be raised and lowered. Each inner folding component 700 includes a horizontally movable inner folding plate 710. After the inner folding component 700 is lowered, the inner folding plate 710 can be moved between the two top side edges 132. The inner folding plate 710 further moves horizontally to push the top side edge 132, so that the top side edge 132 perpendicular to the second box edge 130 is further folded towards the second box edge 130.

[0030] The pushing component 900 is installed on the frame 200 and moves in the same direction as the pushing component 500. It is located below the folding position 210 and on both sides of the folding position 210, respectively. The pushing component 900 can contact the first box edge 120 and cooperate with the pushing component 500 to clamp the formed box. Then, the box is moved out of the folding position 210 through synchronous movement.

[0031] Specifically, the workflow is as follows: The cardboard 100 to be folded is stacked on the placement platform 240. The lifting drive 250 drives the placement platform 240 to rise, so that the top cardboard 100 reaches the adsorption height of the feeding adsorption component 1000. The feeding adsorption component 1000 moves horizontally above the placement platform 240, descends and adsorbs the top 150 of the cardboard 100, then rises and moves horizontally to a position close to the folding position 210. The bottom adsorption component 1100 descends, adsorbs the bottom 110 of the cardboard 100 and picks up the cardboard 100, then descends further and pushes the cardboard 100 to the folding position 210 of the frame 200. At this time, the bottom adsorption component 600 is activated, adsorbs the bottom of the bottom 110, so that the cardboard 100 is stably fixed in the folding position 210, completing the positioning.

[0032] During the descent of the bottom adsorption assembly 1100, the top guide plate 220 abuts against the lower end of the first box edge 120 of the cardboard 100, applying a pushing force to fold the first box edge 120 upward along the crease until the first box edge 120 is perpendicular to the bottom of the box 110; the two second box edges 130 connected to both ends of the first box edge 120, and the top of the box 150 connected to the first box edge 120, fold up synchronously with the first box edge 120, and finally all become perpendicular to the bottom of the box 110; The bottom guide plate 230 receives the bottom side 131 and assists it in lifting relative to the bottom of the box 110; then the two side push components 400 push the second box side 130 to fold inward until the second box side 130 is perpendicular to the first box side 120 and the bottom of the box 110, while the bottom side 131 abuts against the upper surface of the bottom of the box 110.

[0033] The two side push components 800 push the two third sides 141 of the cardboard 100 simultaneously from bottom to top, so that the third sides 141 are folded along the crease until the third sides 141 are perpendicular to the third box edge 140. The push assembly 500 pushes the third box edge 140 from bottom to top, driving the third box edge 140 to fold upward along the crease until the third box edge 140 is perpendicular to the box bottom 110 (forming the side enclosure of the box together with the second box edge 130); during this process, the third box edge 140 simultaneously drives the two already perpendicular third side edges 141 to move, finally placing the third side edges 141 on the upper surface of the bottom side edge 131.

[0034] Maintaining the upward pushing state of the push component 500, the third box edge 140 remains folded. The push component 900 rises and contacts the folded first box edge 120. The push component 500 and the push component 900 work together to clamp the formed box body. Then, the push component 500 and the push component 900 move synchronously, driving the box body from the folded position 210 to the position where the flat push component 300 and the inward folding component 700 are located.

[0035] The two flat push components 300 move horizontally toward the top side 132, pushing the top side 132 to fold along the crease until the top side 132 is perpendicular to the second box edge 130; Furthermore, the inner folding assembly 700 descends, causing the two inner folding plates 710 to extend between the two top side edges 132; then the inner folding plates 710 move horizontally, pushing the top side edges 132 further towards the second box edge 130, ultimately causing the top side edges 132 to abut against the surface of the third side edge 141, completing the initial folding of the box body.

[0036] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
