The main block 210 adjacent to the inner side of the box B is moved in the first direction 12 and the second direction 14 so that the main block 210 ). The main blocks 210 adjust the spacing of the main blocks 210 so as to support the four corner areas of the box B. [

The side block providing step (S130) combines one or a plurality of side blocks 230 between adjacent main blocks 210. A plurality of side blocks 230 are provided. A plurality of side blocks 230 are selected so as to match the height and size of the box B among the plurality of side blocks 230. The side blocks 230 are coupled between the adjacent main blocks 210 after the side blocks 230 are selected.

The box combining step S140 is a step of covering the box B over the main block 210 and the side block 230. [ The packaging material is roughly bonded to the inner surface of the box B before the box B is bonded. Thereafter, the box B is covered with the main block 210 and the side block 230.

The pressing step S150 is a step of pressing the four outer side surfaces of the box B to bond the packaging material. The pressing step S150 presses the four outer sides of the box B with the pressing unit 300. [ The four outer sides of the box B are simultaneously pressed by the pressurizing unit 300 at the time of pressurization. The four outer sides of the box B are pressed so that the packaging material is finally bonded to the inner surface of the box B.

The box separation step (S160) ejects air to the lower portion of the box B to separate the box B. In the box separation step (S160), air is injected in the third direction (16) through the air injector (400). The air injector 400 can adjust the amount of air injected according to the size of the box B. Unlike the above-described example, in the box separation step S160, the operator can directly separate the box B.

In the above example, the outer packaging step S200 and the inner packaging step S100 are sequentially performed. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the outer packaging step S200 may be performed after the inner packaging step S100 . Alternatively, only one of the inner side wrapping step (S100) or the outer side wrapping step (S200) can be performed when only one of the outer side surface and the inner side surface of the box is packed.

As described above, the box packing apparatus (1) and the box packing method of the present invention are characterized in that when packing the inner side surface and the outer side surface of the box B of various sizes, the inner side surface of the box B supports the edge area and the side area A main block 210 and a side block 230 are provided. The plurality of main blocks 210 and the plurality of side blocks 230 can be used to support the size of the box B without the wooden box W. [ Accordingly, since no separate neck frame W is manufactured during the packaging process of the box B, the manufacturing cost is reduced, and the packaging process can be performed on the plurality of boxes B having different sizes and heights by one device, The efficiency of the packaging process is improved.

The inner packaging module 10 and the outer packaging module 20 are provided in the box packing apparatus 1. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the box packing apparatus 1 may include the inner packaging module 10 ) May be provided. Alternatively, the box packing apparatus 1 may be provided with only the outer packaging module 20.

The rail member 110 of the inner packaging module 10 is described as having the first running rail 111, the second running rail 112 and the third running rail 113. Alternatively, the rail member 110 may have only the first running rail 111. In this case, when the main block 210 is moved in the second direction, it is coupled to the support rod 150 and is manually movable.
