Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to, for example, a sealing machine that fills a cardboard box with an article, folds a flap, and then seals. More specifically, the present invention relates to a sealing machine that can be used even when taken out outdoors.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 The sealing machine is driven only when it is connected to a commercial power source, and is fixedly installed at a work place that can be connected to the commercial power source. For this reason, for example, when packing harvested agricultural products in a box, it was necessary to carry them all to a predetermined place and then carry them together, or to carry out the work by hand, which is troublesome.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved and means for solving them]

 Therefore, an object of this invention is to obtain a convenient sealing machine that can be used anywhere.

A means for this is a sealing machine in which a power source for driving the sealing means is electricity, and the power source for supplying the electricity is a sealing machine.

Another means is a sealing machine in which a power source for driving the sealing means is electricity, and the power source for supplying the electricity is a sealing machine.

In the case of a cardboard box sealing machine, an adhesive tape attached to the flap of the cardboard box may be used as the sealing means.

In order to facilitate the movement, it is preferable to provide a moving means at the lower end of the main body having the sealing means.

[0008]

[Action and effect]

 That is, according to the above configuration, since the power source required to drive the sealing means is composed of a storage battery or a generator that can be used anywhere, it has not been possible to use it outdoors. Convenience can be obtained and workability can be improved.

【Example】

 One embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a simple type sealing machine 1. This sealing machine 1 seals a flap of a corrugated box A by applying an adhesive tape 2 on the flap, and in a state where the flap is closed. When supplied, the adhesive tape 2 is automatically attached while being conveyed by the sealing means 3 using electricity as a power source.

The structure will be briefly described below. In the width direction for carrying the corrugated cardboard box A, on a carrying surface 6 formed by rotatably arranging a large number of rollers 5 on the upper surface of the main body 4. The conveying means 7, 7 facing each other are constructed by stretching a conveying belt 9 driven by a conveying motor 8. The pair of conveying means 7, 7 is moved in the width direction by the width adjusting air cylinder 10 (see FIG. 1) provided below the rollers 5 so that the center of the cardboard box A is not displaced. However, it is designed to accommodate cardboard boxes A of different sizes.

An elevating member 12 is provided above the main body 4 via a gate-shaped frame 11. The elevating member 12 is moved up and down by an air cylinder 13 for height adjustment and presses the upper surface of the corrugated box A so that it can be applied to corrugated boxes A having different heights. The elevating member 12 is provided with a tape unit 15 composed of the wound adhesive tape 2 and the pressing roller 14 in order to attach the adhesive tape 2 to the upper surface of the cardboard box A.

A similar tape unit 15 is also provided on the lower side of the transport surface 6 so that the adhesive tape 2 may be attached to the lower surface of the corrugated cardboard box A at the same time as being attached to the upper surface.

A caster 16 as a moving means is attached to the lower end of the main body 4.

In the figure, 17 is a power lamp, 18 is a start switch, and 19 is a stop switch.

As for the operation, when the start switch 18 is pressed and then the cardboard box A is supplied with the flap closed as shown in FIG. The adjusting air cylinder 10 and the height adjusting air cylinder 13 move to a position hitting the corrugated box A and are conveyed by the conveying means 7 and 7. In the process, the adhesive tape by the tape units 15 and 15 is used. 2 is pasted (Fig. 4).

As shown in the control circuit block diagram of FIG. 1, the sealing means 3 for performing the necessary sealing operation in the sealing machine 1 requires the storage battery 20 as a power source. The control circuit 21 is composed of, for example, a CPU, a ROM storing a program, and a RAM storing operation data, and drives and controls each circuit device.

The switch unit 22 represents the start switch 18 and the stop switch 19 described above, and signals from these are input to the control circuit 21. Further, the control valve 23 controls the supply of air for driving the width adjusting air cylinder 10 and the height adjusting air cylinder 13 by a signal from the control circuit 21. Since the compressor 24 generates compressed air for driving the width adjusting air cylinder 10 and the height adjusting air cylinder 13, the compressor 24 is operated by the motor 25. The transport motor 8 drives the above-described transport belt 9 in response to a signal from the control circuit. The storage battery 20 is connected by a first power supply line 26 for operating the switch unit 22 and the control circuit 21 and a second power supply line 27 for driving the carrying motor 8 and the motor 25.

As described above, since the electric power source required to drive the sealing means 3 is composed of the storage battery that can be used anywhere, it is possible to obtain the convenience which has never been available, such as taking it outdoors. Therefore, workability can be improved.

In addition to the storage battery 20, a generator or a solar battery may be used. A staple may be used as the sealing means 3.
