In order to achieve the purpose of the previous disclosure, the detection method for the overturning of the transport box provided by this creation includes: A conveyor belt conveys a plurality of transport boxes and passes under the three detectors in sequence along the conveying direction; each of the detectors is capable of sending a signal to a controller upon detection of the shipping box; and When the controller receives the signals from the three detectors at the same time, the controller will send a warning signal to a warning module.

The transport box overturning detection device of the present invention can be used to be arranged between a transport box overturning device for overturning a transport box and a boxing device, and the conveyor belt can transport a plurality of transport boxes along the conveying direction and pass through the transport box. Box overturn detection device.

Wherein, the transport box overturn detection device can detect the contact of the transport box through the three detectors, and each of the detectors will send a signal to the controller when it touches the transport box, so that the controller can receive The number of signals to judge the opening direction of the transport box; when the controller receives the signals from the three detectors at the same time, the controller will judge it as abnormal and send a warning signal to the warning module so that the operator can Go to the processing, so that the abnormal transport box with the opening facing down can be detected reliably, so as to avoid the operation of the packing equipment from being affected.

Please refer to Fig. 1 to Fig. 3, it is a kind of preferred embodiment of the overturn detection device of the transport box of the present invention, it is used to be arranged on one side of a conveyor belt 50, and the conveyor belt 50 can transport a plurality of transport boxes 60 along Moving in a conveying direction, the transport box turnover detection device includes a controller 10 , a warning module 20 , a support frame 30 and three detectors 40 .

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 , the warning module 20 is electrically connected to the controller 10 ; wherein, the warning module 20 includes a buzzer (not shown).

As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the support frame 30 is arranged on one side of the conveyor belt 50; wherein, the support frame 30 includes a frame bar 31 and a positioning plate 32, and the frame bar 31 is arranged on On one side of the conveyor belt 50 , the positioning plate 32 is arranged on the frame bar 31 .

As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the three detectors 40 are arranged on the support frame 30 at intervals along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 50, and are located above the conveyor belt 50, and each of the detectors 40 is located on the conveyor belt 50. When touching the transport box 60, a signal will be sent to the controller 10, and when the controller 10 receives the signals from the three detectors 40 at the same time, the controller 10 will send a warning signal to the warning Module 20 ; wherein, the three detectors 40 can be arranged on the positioning plate 32 at intervals along the conveying direction of the conveying belt 50 .

As shown in Figures 1 to 3, in addition, each detector 40 includes a body 41 and a detection unit 42, the body 41 is arranged on the support frame 30, and the detection unit 42 extends downward from the body 41 .
