The following is further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to fig. 4, in some embodiments, the packaging apparatus 100 may further include a consumable holding mechanism 20 and a lifting mechanism 30, and the consumable holding mechanism 20, the lifting mechanism 30, and the sealing and cutting mechanism 40 are accommodated in the frame 10. The frame 10 includes side walls 11 and a top wall 12. In the example shown in fig. 2, the side walls 11 have an elongated hollow structure. In other embodiments, the sidewall 11 may also be a sealed plate-like structure with long rows, which is not limited herein. Two opposite sides of the side wall 11 are respectively provided with a bearing seat group (101/102). The top wall 12 is positioned above the packaging device 100 during installation or normal use.

Referring to fig. 2 and 3, in some embodiments, the packaging apparatus 100 may further include a housing 90, and the frame 10, the consumable accommodating mechanism 20, the lifting mechanism 30, and the sealing and cutting mechanism 40 are covered by the housing 90.

In some embodiments, the frame 10 is enclosed by a housing 90. Referring to fig. 1, in another embodiment, the packaging apparatus 100 may not include the housing 90, and the frame 10 is covered by the casing 300.

Referring to fig. 7 and 8, the consumable accommodating mechanism 20 can accommodate and release the consumable 27 for packaging the ready-to-package 81. The lifting mechanism 30 can drive the to-be-packaged piece 81 to move up and down. The seal-and-cut mechanism 40 is capable of cutting and sealing the consumable 27 pulled out by the ready-to-package 81 and/or the lifting mechanism 30 and completing accommodation of the ready-to-package 81.

With continued reference to fig. 7 and 8, the ready-to-package 81 and the consumable 27 enclosing the ready-to-package 81 together comprise a packaged package 80. For example, the to-be-packaged component 81 is a meal box containing food, and the meal box enclosed by the consumables 27 and the consumables 27 enclosing the meal box form the package 80 so as to be conveniently carried by a user. Of course, the package 81 can be a dining cup, a book, or a piece of clothing, etc., without limitation.

Referring to fig. 9, in some embodiments, the consumable housing mechanism 20 includes a consumable cartridge 21. The consumable cartridge 21 is for containing consumables 27.

Referring to fig. 8, in some embodiments, the consumable cartridge 21 includes a first side 211 and a second side 213 opposite to each other, and a through hole 215 penetrating the first side 211 and the second side 213. The ready-to-package 81 can pass through the through hole 215 to be wrapped by the consumable 27.

In some embodiments, the consumable housing mechanism 20 may further include a fixing unit 23 disposed on the consumable cartridge 21, the fixing unit 23 being disposed on the first side 211 or the second side 213 for fixing the consumable 27 to the consumable cartridge 21. In one embodiment, the second side 213 of the consumable box 21 is provided with a receiving groove 2130, the fixing unit 23 is disposed in the receiving groove 2130, and the consumable 27 partially extends into the receiving groove 2130 to connect to the fixing unit 23 and block the through hole 215.

Referring to fig. 4 and 9, in some embodiments, the lifting mechanism 30 includes a lifting component 31 and a suction component 33 connected to each other. The adsorption assembly 33 is used for carrying the item to be packaged 81 and for adsorbing the consumable 27 so as to be able to pull the consumable 27 out of the consumable cartridge 21. The lifting assembly 31 is used for driving the adsorption assembly 33 to lift.

In some embodiments, the suction assembly 33 is also used to suck the piece to be packaged 81 to prevent the piece to be packaged 81 carried by the lifting mechanism 30 from falling off the lifting mechanism 30.

In some embodiments, the lift mechanism 30 is located below the consumable cartridge 21. In this way, even if the elevating mechanism 30 does not suck the consumable supplies 27, when the elevating mechanism 30 carries the package 81 to be packaged and moves up and down, the consumable supplies 27 are pressed against the elevating mechanism 30 by the package 81 to be packaged and move together.

Referring to fig. 7 to 9, in one embodiment, the consumable 27 is cylindrical, and the consumable 27 is formed with a containing space 271 and includes an initial closed end 272 and an open end 273 opposite to the closed end 272. Wherein, one end of the consumable 27 connected to the fixing unit 23 is an open end 273, and the bottom of the accommodating space 271 is a closed end 272. The open end 273 faces the through hole 215, and the package to be packaged 81 can be placed into the accommodation space 271 from the open end 273. The part between the opening end 273 and the closed end 272 of the consumable 27 is accommodated in the accommodating groove 2130, the adsorption component 33 can adsorb the closed end 272 and drag the consumable 27, and the part of the consumable 27 accommodated in the accommodating groove 2130 is pulled out, so that the consumable 27 extends out of the consumable accommodating mechanism 20 by any length to pack the to-be-packaged items 81 with different sizes and different quantities. The larger the number and the larger the size of the packs 81 packed with the consumable 27, the more the portion of the consumable 27 protrudes from the consumable housing mechanism 20. For example, the to-be-packaged component 81 is a meal box, and in a case that one meal box needs to be packed, the adsorption component 33 drags the consumable 27 to move relative to the consumable accommodating mechanism 20, so that the consumable 27 extends out of the consumable box 21 by a first length; in the case where two meal boxes need to be packed, the consumable 27 is extended from the consumable box 21 by a second length, the second length being greater than the first length. Referring to fig. 4, the sealing and cutting mechanism 40 can cut off the portion of the consumable 27 protruding from the consumable accommodating mechanism 20, and can seal the opening of the accommodating space 271 containing the to-be-packaged item 81 to form a completely sealed accommodating space 271, so as to completely wrap the to-be-packaged item 81 therein.

Referring to fig. 4 and 7, in another embodiment, the consumable 27 may be made of a flexible material. After the piece to be packaged 81 is placed in the consumable 27, the lifting mechanism 30 drives the piece to be packaged 81 to move, so that the consumable 27 extends to form the accommodating space 271 capable of accommodating the piece to be packaged 81, and thus, the wrapping of the piece to be packaged 81 by the consumable 27 is tight. The sealing and cutting mechanism 40 can cut off the portion of the consumable 27 extending out of the accommodating space 271, and can seal the opening of the accommodating space 271 containing the piece 81 to form a completely sealed accommodating space 271, and completely wrap the piece 81 inside.

In some embodiments, the consumable 27 includes a packaging portion corresponding to the position of the seal-cutting mechanism 40 and for packaging the to-be-packaged item 81, and a to-be-packaged portion connecting the consumable cartridge 21 and the packaging portion. The seal-cutting mechanism 40 is used for sealing the packing portion, sealing the portion to be packed to form a new closed end, and cutting the packing portion and the portion to be packed.

The packaging part and the part to be packaged of the consumable 27 are not parts divided on the consumable 27 in advance, but parts divided according to packaging requirements, so that the packaging part of the consumable 27 is determined according to the number and the size of the parts to be packaged 81 to adapt to different packaging scenes. In one embodiment, the seal-and-cut mechanism 40 is capable of cutting the consumable 27 protruding from the consumable cartridge 21 into two parts, one part still connected to the consumable cartridge 21, being the part to be packaged; the other part houses the package and is separate from the portion to be packaged of the consumable 27, being the packaged portion. Further, when the lifting mechanism 30 drives the consumables 27 and the to-be-packaged items 81 to move to the positions of the to-be-packaged items 81 corresponding to the sealing and cutting mechanism 40, a part of the consumables 27 separated from the consumable material box 21 by being cut by the sealing and cutting mechanism 40 belongs to the packaging part, and the to-be-packaged items 81 are accommodated in the packaging part. That is, when the consumable 27 is moved to a position waiting for cutting, the packaging portion and the portion to be packaged can be determined.

Referring to fig. 4, in some embodiments, the consumable cassette 21 is located above the sealing and cutting mechanism 40, and the consumables 27 are pulled by the absorption assembly 33 to a position corresponding to the sealing and cutting mechanism 40 to wait for cutting and packaging. Before the sealing and cutting mechanism 40 cuts the consumable 27, the packaging part is positioned below the cutting position of the sealing and cutting mechanism 40 on the consumable 27, the part to be packaged is positioned above the cutting position, and the part to be packaged is connected with the consumable box 21 and the packaging part; after the seal-cutting mechanism 40 cuts the consumable 27, the packaging portion is separated from the portion to be packaged.

In one embodiment, sealing and cutting mechanism 40 first cuts consumable 27 and then seals the cut consumable 27. Since the junction of the packaging part and the part to be packaged is the wall of the cylindrical consumable 27 before cutting, an opening appears above the packaging part and below the part to be packaged after cutting, respectively. The sealing and cutting mechanism 40 is used for sealing the opening above the packaging part, so that the packaging part forms a completely closed accommodating space 271 to wrap the to-be-packaged component 81; and a sealing edge for sealing an opening below the portion to be packed to form a new closed end to catch the bottom of the piece to be packed 81 when packing the next piece to be packed 81.

In yet another embodiment, the sealing and cutting mechanism 40 seals the consumable 27 and then cuts the sealed consumable 27. When the consumable 27 is waiting to be cut, the sealing and cutting mechanism 40 firstly seals the consumable 27 corresponding to the sealing and cutting mechanism 40, for example, the cylinder wall of the cylindrical consumable 27 is sealed in the horizontal direction by heat sealing, plastic sealing, glue sealing and the like, so that the connected accommodating space 271 forms two unconnected subspaces after sealing, wherein one subspace is located above the sealing part and belongs to the part to be packaged, and the sealing part is the closed end of the part to be packaged; the other subspace is positioned below the sealing part and belongs to the packaging part, the upper part of the subspace of the packaging part is sealed by the sealing part, and the lower part of the subspace of the packaging part is sealed by the initial sealing end of the packaging part, so that the packaging part is a sealed accommodating space. The sealing and cutting mechanism 40 is used for cutting the sealing part to separate the packaging part and the part to be packaged, and the lower part of the separated part to be packaged and the upper part of the packaging part are sealed.

In yet another embodiment, the sealing and cutting mechanism 40 simultaneously seals and cuts the consumable 27 to obtain a portion to be packaged having a new closed end formed below, and a portion to be packaged having the packaged item 81 completely sealed inside.

Referring to fig. 4, in some embodiments, the lifting mechanism 30 can drive the to-be-packaged component 81 to move to a position corresponding to the sealing and cutting mechanism 40 for packaging. Referring to fig. 5 and 9, the consumable 27 is located between the first plate 41 and the second plate 43 at the position where the to-be-packaged item 81 corresponds to the sealing and cutting mechanism 40. After the first and second plates 41 and 43 are brought close to each other by a predetermined distance, the first cutter 415 can cut the consumable 27 while the first heat seal 412 can seal the bale portion. Alternatively, the first cutter 415 can cut the consumable 27 after the first and second plates 41, 43 are brought into proximity with each other a first predetermined distance, and the first heat seal 412 can seal the bale portion after the first and second plates 41, 43 are brought into proximity with each other a second predetermined distance. Alternatively, first heat seal 412 can seal the bale portion after first panel 41 and second panel 43 are brought into proximity with each other a first predetermined distance, and first cutter 415 can cut consumable 27 after first panel 41 and second panel 43 are brought into proximity with each other a second predetermined distance; and are not intended to be limiting herein.

Referring to fig. 5 and 6, in one example, the driving assembly 49 may drive the first plate 41 and the second plate 43 to move synchronously to move closer to or away from each other. In other embodiments, the driving assembly 49 can also be used to independently drive the first plate 41 to move toward the second plate 43, or independently drive the second plate 43 to move toward the first plate 41, which is not limited herein.

In some embodiments, the first heat seal 412 includes a heat-generating wire, and after the first plate 41 and the second plate 43 are brought close to each other by a predetermined distance, the portion of the consumable 27 (shown in FIG. 9) that is close to the first heat seal 412 is brought into a molten state under the influence of heat from the heat-generating wire. After the heating wire stops heating for a certain period of time, or after the first plate 41 and the second plate 43 are separated from each other by a predetermined distance, the consumable 27 in a molten state solidifies to form the edge seal.

Referring to fig. 5 and 6, in some embodiments, the first plate 41 may further include a second heat seal 413 disposed on the first body 411. The second heat seal 413 is located on a side of the first heat seal 412 facing away from the first cut 415 and is spaced from the first heat seal 412. The first heat seal 412, the second heat seal 413, and the second body 431 can collectively edge seal the packed portion between the first panel 41 and the second panel 43 to form an edge seal 274 (shown in fig. 6 and 7).

The farther the interval between the first heat seal 412 and the second heat seal 413 is, the larger the size (e.g., the size in the height direction in fig. 7) of the seal portion 274 is formed. In one embodiment, the first heat seal 412 and the second heat seal 413 are movably disposed on the first plate 41, and a distance between the first heat seal 412 and the second heat seal 413 is adjustable to enable forming the seal portions 274 with different sizes.

In some embodiments, it is also possible that one of the first heat seal 412 and the second heat seal 413 is provided to the first body 411, and the other is provided to the second body 431; alternatively, the first heat seal 412 and the second heat seal 413 are both disposed on the second body 431, and the first cutting element 415 is disposed on the first body 411, which is not limited herein.

With continued reference to fig. 5 and 6, in some embodiments, the first plate 41 may further include a second cutting element 416 disposed on the first body 411. A second cutter 416 is positioned between the first heat seal 412 and the second heat seal 413 for cutting a handle aperture 275 (shown in fig. 7) in the marginal portion 274 to facilitate carrying of the packaged package 80 by a user. In some embodiments, the second cutting element 416 is also used to cut hollowed-out trademarks, letters, patterns, etc. on the edge sealing portion 274, but not limited thereto.

In some embodiments, the second cutting member 416 may also be disposed on the second body 431, which is not limited herein.

Referring to fig. 5 and 6, in some embodiments, the second body 431 may be provided with a first avoiding space 4311, and the first avoiding space 4311 is used for avoiding the first cutting member 415 from cutting the second body 431, so as to prevent the first cutting member 415 from cutting the second body 431. Similarly, in some embodiments, the second body 431 may further be provided with a second avoiding space 4313, and the second avoiding space 4313 is used for avoiding the second cutting member 416 so as to avoid the second cutting member 416 from cutting the second body 431.

Referring to fig. 5, in some embodiments, the first plate 41 may further include a third heat seal 414 disposed on the first body 411, and the third heat seal 414 and the second body 431 can jointly seal the consumable 27 (shown in fig. 9) to form a new closed end of the portion to be packaged.

In certain embodiments, the first cut 415 is located between the first heat seal 412 and the second heat seal 413. Referring to fig. 4, in the case where the consumable accommodating mechanism 20 is located above the sealing and cutting mechanism 40, when the to-be-packaged item 81 corresponds to the sealing and cutting mechanism 40, the consumable 27 located above the first cutting member 415 is a to-be-packaged portion, and the consumable 27 located below the first cutting member 415 is a packaged portion. A third heat seal 414 can seal the lower end of the portion to be baled to form a new closed end, and the first and second heat seals 412, 413 together serve to seal the upper end of the bale portion to form a hem 274.

Referring to fig. 5 and 6, in some embodiments, the second plate 43 may further include a first bump 432. The first protrusion 432 extends from the second body 431 toward one side of the first body 411, and the first protrusion 432 and the first heat seal 412 are matched oppositely to seal the packing part between the first plate 41 and the second plate 43 together, so as to prevent the first heat seal 412 from directly contacting the second plate 43 to scald the second plate 43.
