This invention discloses an automatic recycling and bundling device and method for fast food boxes using a compression-type method, belonging to the technical field of fast food box recycling equipment. The device includes a box body and a loading port. The box body contains a box-passing
assembly, a box-pressing
assembly, a transfer trough, a knotting
assembly, and a shearing assembly. The box-passing assembly includes a lower support plate, a threading needle, a
rope winder, a first displacement device, and a first gripper. The box-pressing assembly includes an upper pressure plate, a second displacement device, a third displacement device, and a second gripper. The transfer trough includes a pressure plate and side plates. This invention can semi-destructively compress fast food boxes and bundle them together with
rope, facilitating logistics and transportation. It can be integrated with existing
waste disposal systems, ensuring seamless connection of all logistics links and zero
pollution throughout the process. The mechanical structure is simple and mature, with low equipment cost, easy operation, low
energy consumption, and the consumable material is packing
rope, which is cheaper than packing tape, resulting in low total logistics costs. It achieves
automation,
informatization, and high reliability.
