Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flexible sheet packaging technology, and in particular to a packaging guide device. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production, medical, and daily life sectors, there is a frequent need to collect and pack various flexible sheet-like items, such as surgical drapes, gauze pads, towels, and bed sheets, into flexible packaging bags such as plastic or paper bags. Traditional manual packing methods typically require the operator to open the bag with one hand while stuffing the folded or rolled-up sheet-like item into the bag with the other. This method is inefficient, and during the operation, the item is prone to blockage, folding, or slipping at the bag opening due to improper closure or misalignment. This not only affects the packing speed and neatness but may also pose a risk of contamination or affect subsequent use in scenarios with strict operational requirements, such as medical sterilization.

[0003] To improve packaging efficiency, some auxiliary tools exist in existing technologies, such as simple funnels or guide channels. However, these tools typically have fixed structures and cannot effectively adapt to the openings of packaging bags of different sizes and softness. Their functions in opening the bag, maintaining the bag opening, and smoothly guiding sheet-like items are limited. Especially when multiple sheet-like items need to be neatly and quickly packed into bags in batches, existing tools often fail to ensure the neat arrangement and smooth introduction of items, still requiring a significant amount of manual intervention. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a packaging guide device. To achieve the aforementioned objective, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: A packaging guide device for guiding flexible sheets into flexible packaging bags. The device includes a receiving mechanism for receiving and guiding the flexible sheet along a path, and an infeeding mechanism connected to the outlet end of the receiving mechanism. The inlet mechanism includes at least one inlet section, the vertical height of which is set to decrease in the direction away from the receiving mechanism, so that the opening of the flexible packaging bag can be gradually opened when it enters the flexible packaging bag, so that the flexible sheet moving from the receiving mechanism enters the flexible packaging bag through the inlet mechanism.

[0005] Furthermore, the receiving mechanism includes a base plate and a first side plate that is vertically disposed on the base plate and extends upward, the first side plate being used to laterally limit the flexible sheet.

[0006] Furthermore, the receiving mechanism also includes a second side plate disposed opposite to the first side plate, and the bottom plate, the first side plate and the second side plate together constitute a receiving channel for guiding the movement of the flexible sheet.

[0007] Furthermore, the relative distance between the first side plate and the second side plate is set to be approximately equal to the width of the flexible sheet, so that the first side plate and the second side plate can position the flexible sheet placed in the receiving channel.

[0008] Furthermore, the inlet mechanism includes two inlet portions, and the outer edges of both inlet portions are arc-shaped, extending from the upper edges of the first side plate and the second side plate toward the bottom plate, respectively.

[0009] Furthermore, the inlet mechanism includes two inlet portions, both of which are triangular, with their hypotenuses extending from the upper edges of the first and second side plates to the bottom plate and fixedly connected.

[0010] Furthermore, the receiving mechanism and the guiding mechanism are made of rigid materials.

[0011] Furthermore, the hard material is stainless steel.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. In this utility model, by setting up a receiving mechanism and an introducing mechanism connected thereto, and by setting the introducing mechanism to include an introducing part with decreasing vertical height, the gradual opening and stable guidance of the flexible packaging bag opening is achieved. In this way, when packaging flexible sheet-like objects, this device can smoothly open the opening of the flexible packaging bag from small to large and maintain the open state, so that the flexible sheet-like object can slide into the bag without obstruction along the path. This solves the problems of bag closure, item jamming, and folding caused by manual operation or simple tools, and significantly improves the smoothness and success rate of packaging.

[0013] 2. In this utility model, by setting up a receiving mechanism consisting of a base plate and at least one side plate, effective receiving and lateral limiting of flexible sheet-like objects are achieved. This ensures that the sheet-like object always moves along a predetermined path during its movement, preventing lateral deviation or tipping, thus laying the foundation for accurate subsequent loading into packaging bags. It is particularly beneficial for the neat arrangement and batch loading of multiple sheet-like objects.

[0014] 3. In this utility model, by setting opposing first and second side plates to form a receiving channel with a suitable width, precise positioning and constraint of flexible sheet-like objects are achieved. This method allows the sheet-like objects to be neatly arranged and maintain their posture within the channel, effectively preventing twisting, misalignment, or accumulation during the pushing process, ensuring the neatness of the packaged items. It is particularly suitable for scenarios such as medical dressings that require standardized storage. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0018] To better understand the purpose, structure, and function of this utility model, a packaging guide device of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Figure 1 The illustration schematically shows a packing guide device according to the present invention. The device 100 is configured to be used in conjunction with a flexible sheet and a flexible packaging bag. Specifically, the device 100 is used to receive the flexible sheet 10 and form a path for the movement of the flexible sheet 10, so that the flexible sheet 10 can move along the path into the flexible packaging bag, thereby realizing the packing operation.

[0020] It should be noted that the flexible sheet material includes, but is not limited to, surgical towels, gauze pads, towels, bed sheets, etc., while the flexible packaging bag includes, but is not limited to, plastic bags, paper bags, etc. In this embodiment, the flexible sheet material 10 is set as a gauze pad, and the flexible packaging bag is set as a paper bag.

[0021] In the illustrated embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the device 100 includes a receiving mechanism 1, which is configured to receive and guide the flexible sheet 10 along a path. The device 100 also includes an inlet mechanism 2, which is connected to the outlet end of the receiving mechanism 1, and together with the receiving mechanism 1, forms the path for the movement of the flexible sheet 10.

[0022] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , 2As shown, the inlet mechanism 2 includes at least one inlet portion 21, the vertical height of which is set to decrease in the direction away from the receiving mechanism 1. In this way, the inlet portion 21 can gradually open the opening of the flexible packaging bag when it enters the flexible packaging bag, thereby allowing the flexible sheet 10 moving from the receiving mechanism 1 to enter the flexible packaging bag through the inlet mechanism 2.

[0023] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown, in this configuration, when the device 100 is needed to guide the flexible sheet 10 into the flexible packaging bag, the opening of the flexible packaging bag (e.g., a paper bag) is first fitted over the end of the guiding mechanism 2, covering at least one guiding portion 21. Since the vertical height of the guiding portion 21 decreases in the direction away from the receiving mechanism 1, the opening of the flexible packaging bag can be initially opened.

[0024] Subsequently, a further force is applied to the infeeding mechanism 2, causing it to further expand the opening of the flexible packaging bag until the opening size is sufficient for the flexible sheet to enter. At this point, the operator places several flexible sheets 10 (e.g., gauze sheets) onto the receiving mechanism 1, arranging them neatly together. Simultaneously, the flexible sheets 10 are pushed along the path defined by the receiving mechanism 1. Under the support and guidance of the receiving mechanism 1, the flexible sheets 10 begin to move along this path towards the infeeding mechanism 2.

[0025] During this process, as the flexible sheet 10 moves from the receiving mechanism 1 to the connected guiding mechanism 2, its leading edge continues to advance under the guidance of the guiding part 21 and enters the interior of the flexible packaging bag through the opening. This completes the packaging process. This method ensures that the flexible sheet 10 can smoothly, accurately, and unobstructedly slide completely into the target packaging bag, effectively avoiding blockage or folding at the bag opening.

[0026] It should be noted that the path width of the receiving mechanism 1 and the initial size of the guiding mechanism 2 are both set to match the conventional size of the flexible sheet 10 to be packaged, so as to ensure effective guidance of the flexible sheet 10 and adapt to the opening size of common flexible packaging bags, thereby achieving a wide range of efficient packaging applications.

[0027] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the receiving mechanism 1 includes a base plate 11, on which a first side plate 12 is vertically disposed. The first side plate 12 extends upward to laterally limit the flexible sheet 10. In this way, the flexible sheet 10 is prevented from shifting laterally.

[0028] According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 2 As shown, the receiving mechanism 1 also includes a second side plate 13, which is disposed opposite to the first side plate 12. In this way, the base plate 11, the first side plate 12, and the second side plate 13 together form a receiving channel 14 for guiding the movement of the flexible sheet 10. This allows the flexible sheet 10 to be confined within the receiving channel 14, facilitating the placement of the flexible sheet and preventing it from shifting during movement.

[0029] In the illustrated embodiment, such as Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the relative distance "H" between the first side plate 12 and the second side plate 13 is set to be approximately equal to the width of the flexible sheet. In this way, the first side plate 12 and the second side plate 13 can position the flexible sheet placed in the receiving channel 14.

[0030] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the inlet mechanism 2 includes two inlet portions 21, and the outer edges of both inlet portions 21 are arc-shaped, extending from the upper edges of the first side plate 12 and the second side plate 13 toward the base plate 11, respectively. It should be noted that the vertical distance between the arc-shaped outer edge and the base plate 11 gradually decreases as it moves away from the receiving mechanism 1.

[0031] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, both inlet portions 21 are configured as triangles, with their hypotenuses extending from the upper edges of the first side plate 12 and the second side plate 13 to the base plate 11 and fixedly connected. It should be noted that the vertical distance between the hypotenuse of the triangle and the base plate 11 gradually decreases as it moves away from the receiving mechanism 1.

[0032] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, both the receiving mechanism 1 and the guiding mechanism 2 are made of rigid material. This prevents deformation of the receiving mechanism 1 and the guiding mechanism 2 under stress. Preferably, the rigid material is stainless steel.

[0033] The operation of the packaging guide device 100 according to this utility model is as follows.

[0034] First, the opening of the flexible packaging bag (e.g., a paper bag) to be used is fitted over the end of the inlet mechanism 2, completely covering the two inlet portions 21. At this time, due to the structural support of the inlet portions 21, the opening of the flexible packaging bag is initially opened and positioned. Subsequently, the operator can further apply force to the inlet mechanism 2 along its extension direction, or directly pull the packaging bag body to allow the inlet portions 21 to enter the bag opening more deeply and fully, thereby further opening the flexible packaging bag to a size that allows the flexible sheet to enter smoothly.

[0035] Next, the operator places the flexible sheet 10 to be packaged (e.g., several neatly stacked gauze sheets) on the base plate 11 of the receiving mechanism 1, and limits its lateral edges by the first side plate 12 and the second side plate 13, so that the flexible sheet 10 is neatly located in the receiving channel 14.

[0036] Then, the flexible sheet 10 is pushed along the surface of the base plate 11 toward the guiding mechanism 2. Under the constraint and guidance of the receiving channel 14, the flexible sheet 10 begins to move smoothly along the predetermined path.

[0037] During this process, as the leading edge of the flexible sheet 10 moves from the receiving channel 14 to the guiding mechanism 2, the leading edge of the flexible sheet 10 will continue to advance under the guidance of the guiding part 21 and enter the interior of the flexible packaging bag through the opening. This completes the packaging operation. This method ensures that the flexible sheet 10 can smoothly, accurately, and unobstructedly slide completely into the target packaging bag. After the guidance is complete, the flexible packaging bag containing the flexible sheet 10 is removed from the end of the guiding mechanism 2, thus completing one packaging operation.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions 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 solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
