BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a mask pack folding unit, and more particularly, to a mask pack folding unit that minimizes the volume of a folded mask pack, and a folding method using the same.

In general, a mask pack is a facial technique for supplying nutrition to a facial surface, and in cosmetics, it refers to soaking a pack agent to make a face beautiful. In other words, this method is used when the skin is rough, blurred in the sun, or tired, and the pack is selected according to the main purpose, and the face is covered temporarily to temporarily block the outside air, It is a way to effectively remove.

Such a mask pack is a fruit or vegetable containing a relatively large amount of moisture such as apple or cucumber and is rich in vitamin components. The mask pack is sliced into a predetermined size and directly attached to a desired site such as a face, and algae such as kelp are packed Or a mud mask pack containing loess or clay as a pack or a herbal mask pack containing a herbal ingredient as a main ingredient are widely used.

However, in the case of such a mask pack, that is, in the case of a mask pack in which a pack agent is directly applied to the face, after waiting for a predetermined time while paying attention to prevent the pack from falling off after the pack agent is applied to the face and then removing the pack agent Is required and is cumbersome to use.

In particular, since the preparation is carried out in a state in which the natural material is not processed, or the juice is extracted from the natural material, the preparation process is very complicated and the post-use post-treatment is very troublesome and inconvenient, .

To this end, a mask pack impregnated and absorbed with a functional additive containing various active ingredients such as essence, aloe, oil and loess is added to a sheet made of a hygroscopic material such as a nonwoven fabric.

Since the mask pack is packed in the packaging pouch together with the functional additive, the mask pack is taken out from the packaging pouch and is only attached to the face for a certain period of time, and then removed after a predetermined time. Convenience is provided, which is favored by many users.

Conventionally, the folding method of the conventional mask pack folds the original round mask pack in the direction crossing the folded sides after folding in half, and therefore, the use of the mask pack requires several folds in the reverse order of folding, .

To solve the above problem, the applicant of the present invention has proposed a picking unit having a vision for picking up and supplying mask packs one by one and visually inspecting a mask pack supplied during the movement, A stage on which the mask pack is mounted for vision inspection; Wherein the first vertical folding line and the second vertical folding line of the mask pack supplied from the stage through the sliding are in a state of being folded while facing the first vertical folding line and the second vertical folding line, A shuttle plate and a forming plate for overlapping the mask pack in a "Z" And a push plate movable up and down on the stage to lower the mask pack to a lower portion of the stage by pressing a horizontal folding line of the mask pack folded in a "Z" shape, The plate and the stage are respectively formed with vertically aligned through holes so as to allow the pushing plate to descend. The forming plate is coupled with the second driving unit, and is driven by the second driving unit to move left and right Z "shape when the shuttle plate on which the mask pack is seated is received while being slid with the mask pack while pressing the other side of the mask pack With the disclosure of Korean Patent No. 10-1849261 having a pair of spacers, the mask pack can be easily extended It was so.

However, in the Korean Patent No. 10-1849261, the mask pack is folded in the "Z " shape so that the mask pack can be easily opened. However, since the volume of the folded mask pack can no longer be reduced, Can not be reduced.
