Preferably, a heatable heating plate (unshown in the figures) is fitted and fixed to a bottom surface of the second water tank 43, the heating plate may be a silicon rubber electric heating plate made of silicon rubber, and the second water tank 43 is heated by the heating plate, which can avoid the situation that the water in the second water tank 43 freezes in a cold environment.
Further refer to FIG. 18 and FIG. 19, the wetting device 4 further includes a first water tank 42 and a water containing bottle 41 which are located on the other side of the vertical plate 231. The first water tank 42 and the second water tank 43 communicate by the connection of a connecting pipe 421, so that water in the first water tank 42 is capable of circulating to the second water tank 43. Preferably, the connecting pipe 421 may be a hose. A one-way valve 411 is mounted on a bottleneck of the water containing bottle 41, and the one-way valve 411 is for one-way circulation from the inside to the outside of the water containing bottle 41. A water replenishing frame 45 is further disposed on the other side of the vertical plate 231, and the water replenishing frame 45 may be fixed to the vertical plate 231 or the portal frame 2. The water containing bottle 41 is inversed on the water replenishing frame 45, so that the water containing bottle 41 is kept in a state of being located in the first water tank 42 in a way that the bottleneck faces downwards under the limitation of the water replenishing frame 45. In this state, water in the water containing bottle 41 flows into the first water tank 42 by the one-way valve 411, and when a water level in the first water tank 42 reaches a water outlet of the one-way valve 411, the water level in the first water tank 42 can be maintained on the position of the water outlet of the one-way valve 411 under the action of an atmospheric pressure, and similarly, the second water tank 43 also keeps a water level at the same height.
In addition, a plurality of pressing plates 47 are further fixed above the wetting roller 44, an arc-shaped structure sharing the same axis with the wetting roller 44 is formed above the pressing plates 47, and each of the pressing plates 47 may be connected by a first fixing rod 471 to form a fixed whole. A plurality of guide plates 48 are further disposed below a side, facing away from the tape cutting device 5, of the wetting roller 44, each of the guide plates 48 may be connected by a second fixing rod 481 to form a fixed whole, and the second fixing rod 481 and the first fixing rod 471 may be both fixed to one side of the vertical plate 231 of the lifting frame 23. During operation, the tape 91 passes through a gap between each of the pressing plates 47 and the wetting roller 44 to ensure that the pressing plates 47 can limit the tape 91 to be close to the wetting roller 44 and to avoid a situation that the tape 91 is too loose to be in contact with the wetting roller 44, so that the tape 91 is kept to be stuck to an upper surface of the wetting roller 44 so as to be conveyed, and a wetting effect of the tape 91 is guaranteed. Moreover, the tape 91 can be smoothly conveyed downwards along the guide plates 48.
In addition, in the case that no wetting motor 47 is disposed to drive the wetting roller 44, when the tape 91 is conveyed, the wetting roller 44 can also be driven to rotate by a friction force between the tape 91 and the wetting roller 44, and thus, a passive rotation mode of the wetting roller 44 is formed. Further, the wetting roller 44 may be made of a stainless steel plain roller, a stainless steel mesh roller or sponge roller, wherein in the active rotation mode of the wetting roller 44 driven by the wetting motor 47, the wetting roller 44 may be the stainless steel plain roller or the stainless steel mesh roller, and in the passive rotation mode of the wetting roller 44, the wetting roller 44 may be the sponge roller.
Further refer to FIG. 20, in the present disclosure, a tape pressing device 8 is further disposed, and the tape pressing device 8 includes two torsion frames 81 pivoted with each other and guide rollers 82 disposed on ends of the two torsion frames 81. One side of the vertical plate 231 of the lifting frame 23 is connected with the two torsion frames 81, and ends, close to the second water tank 43, of the two torsion frames 81 are connected with the guide rollers 82. A third swing shaft 83 is fixed on a side, connected with the second water tank 43, of the vertical plate 231, and one end of each of the two torsion frames 81 is connected to the third swing shaft 83 to rotate, so that the two torsion frames 81 swing to each other. Further, the third swing shaft 83 is sleeved with two torsional springs 84, two ends of the torsional springs 84 respectively extend into the two torsion frames, and the two torsion frames 81 are kept in a stretching state relative to the third swing shaft 83 by means of the torsions of the torsional springs 84. In addition, the vertical plate 231 is fixedly provided with a stop lever 85 on the torsion frame 81 located above, and the stop lever 85 stops the torsion frame 81 located above, so that the torsion frame 81 located below swings downwards under the action of torsions of the torsional springs. When the wet tape extends out of the downside of the lifting frame 23, as shown in FIG. 22, a surface, facing away from an initial end of the conveyor 1, of the wet tape is stuck to the guide rollers 82 so as to be conveyed, and thus, a wet tape 92 is guided and limited by the two guide rollers 82. In this structure, the guide roller 82 located above can play a guide role, the guide roller 82 located below can downwards press against the wet tape 92 to ensure that the wet tape 92 presses against the carton conveyed to the downside of the portal frame 2, so that the wet tape 92 can be downwards fitted to the carton.
Due to the adoption of the above-mentioned structure, after passing through the space between the upper conveying roller 71 and the lower conveying roller 72, the tape 91 pulled out of the tape roll 9 mounted on the unwinding device 3 sequentially passes through the tape through hole 501 of the tape cutting device 5, passes by the wetting roller 44 of the wetting device 4, and extends out of the downside of the lifting frame 23. During work, the tape 91 is cut off the tape cutting device 5, so that the cut tape 91 extends out of the downside of the lifting frame 23 after being wetted by the wetting roller 44. After the carton to be packaged is conveyed to the position of the portal frame 2, the bottom surface of the lifting frame 23 is kept in a state that the upside of the carton is sealed by sealing plates on two sides of the carton, after the carton moves to the position of the extended wet tape 92, the wet tape 92 is stuck to a gap between the two sealing plates, and the wet tape 92 is driven to move with the carton, so that a process of carton sealing performed by sticking the carton by using the wet tape 92 wetted after being cut off the movable blade 52 is formed.
In addition, the vertical plate 231 of the lifting frame 23 is further fixedly provided with a distance sensor 565 outside a side of the eccentric wheel 562, such as a position below the eccentric wheel 562 shown in FIG. 17, the distance sensor 565 senses the position of the eccentric pin 563, and the control system receives a signal sensed by the distance sensor 565 to control the tape cutting motor 561 to pause. Specifically, when the eccentric pin 563 rotates downwards to the downside of the eccentric wheel 562, the distance sensor 565 is triggered to send the signal to the control system, the control system controls the tape cutting motor 561 to drive the eccentric wheel 562 to rotate until the swing rod 564 drives the movable blade 52 to be away from the fixed blade 53, thereby completing the reset of the cutting device and waiting for the next cutoff instruction. In addition, it is worth mentioning that, in the present disclosure, an inductor (unshown in the figures) may be further disposed on the position of the portal frame 2 to induce the carton to be packaged and send the signal to the control system, the control system may be a PLC, and the control system controls the tape conveying motor 76, the tape cutting motor 561 and the wetting motor 46 to run after receiving the signal obtained by triggering the inductor.
In addition, as shown in FIG. 21 and FIG. 24, an avoidance gap 101 is formed on a position, corresponding to the downside of the lifting frame 23, below the conveyor 1, and the unwinding device 3, the tape conveying device 7, the tape cutting device 5, the wetting device 4 and the tape pressing device 8 are also disposed in the rack 11 of the conveyor 1. In the rack 11 of the conveyor 1, after passing through the space between the upper conveying roller 71 and the lower conveying roller 72, the tape 91 pulled out of the tape roll 9 mounted on the unwinding device 3 sequentially passes through the tape through hole 501 of the tape cutting device 5, passes by the wetting roller 44 of the wetting device 4, and upwards extends out of the avoidance gap 101, and the guide rollers 82 are upwards jacked by the torsion frames 81 above the tape pressing device 8 under the actions of the torsions of the torsional springs 84, so that the wet tape 92 can be upwards jacked by the guide rollers 82. During work, the tape 91 is cut off by the tape cutting device 5, so that the cut tape 91 extends out of the upside of the avoidance gap 101 after being wetted by the wetting roller 44. When the carton to be packaged is conveyed to the position of the portal frame 2, the surface of the conveyor 1 is kept in a state that the upside of the carton is straightly sealed by sealing plates on two sides of the bottom of the carton, after the carton moves to the position of the extended wet tape 92, the wet tape 92 is stuck to a gap between the two sealing plates, and the wet tape 92 is driven to move with the carton, so that a process of carton sealing performed by sticking the lower surface of the carton by using the wet tape 92 wetted after being cut off by the movable blade 52 is formed. In this way, the upper and lower surfaces of the carton conveyed to the position of the portal frame 2 can be packaged by the tape at the same time, great convenience is provided, and the carton sealing efficiency is favorably increased.

The first sliding frame 61 is of a T-shaped structure shown in FIG. 23, and the bearing block 33 of the unwinding device 6 located in the rack 11 is fixed to the downside of the middle position of the first sliding frame 61. Second slide blocks 632 are fixed on two ends of the first sliding frame 61, two second guide rods 631 are fixed in the rack 11, and the two second guide rods 631 respectively pass through the two second slide blocks 632 so as to limit the first sliding frame 61 to be only capable of straightly sliding along two sides, opposite to the rack 11, of the second guide rods 631. A pull rod 65 is fixed on one end of the first sliding frame 61, and the pull rod 65 penetrates out of one side of the rack 11. When the first sliding frame 61 needs to be pushed or pulled, an end of the pull rod 65 is only pulled or pushed outside the rack 11, which is relatively convenient to operate. Further refer to FIG. 25, a circle of sunken annular groove 651 is disposed in a ring surface close to an end surface of an end, penetrating out of one side of the rack 11, of the pull rod 65, a rotatable clamping member 66 is connected to a side of the pull rod 65 outside the rack 11, a clamping slot 661 is disposed in the clamping member 66, when the clamping member 66 rotates until the clamping slot 661 is clamped outside the annular groove 651 of the pull rod 65, the pull rod 65 can be limited, so that the pull rod 65 is prevented from moving, and then, the first sliding frame 61 and the unwinding device 6 in the rack 11 are prevented from moving.
The second sliding frame 62 is of a flat plate structure shown in FIG. 23, guide sleeves 642 are fixed on two ends of the second sliding frame 62, two third guide rods 641 are fixed in the rack 11, and the two third guide rods 641 are respectively adapted to and pass through the two guide sleeves 642 so as to limit the second sliding frame 62 to be only capable of straightly sliding along two sides, opposite to the rack 11, of the third guide rods 641. Further refer to FIG. 24, in the tape pressing device 8 located in the rack 11, the torsion frame 81 located below is stopped by a stop lever (unshown in the figure) fixed on a side of the second sliding frame 62, so that the torsion frame 81 located above swings upwards under the action of torsions of the torsional springs 84 until passing through the avoidance gap 101; and since the torsion frame 81 passes through the avoidance gap 101, the second sliding frame 62 can be limited to be incapable of sliding relative to the second guide rods 641, and thus, the second sliding frame 62 is positioned.
Due to the adoption of the above-mentioned structure, when the tape roll 9 needs to be replaced, the torsion frame 81 upwards extending out of the avoidance gap 101 is downwards pressed into the rack 11, and then, the second sliding frame 62 is pushed to be close to the side of the rack 11; and then, after the clamping member 66 is overturned, the pull rod 65 is pulled out to drive the first sliding frame 61 to move to be close to the side of the rack 11. Compared with a way of replacing by drilling into the rack 11, it is more convenient to replace the tape roll 9 on the side of the rack 11. After the tape roll 9 is replaced, the first sliding frame 61 is pushed into the rack 11 until the torsion frame 81 extends out of the avoidance gap 101; and then, the pull rod 65 is pushed to the inside of the rack 11 so as to drive the first sliding frame 61 to the inside of the rack 11, then, the clamping member 66 is rotated until the clamping slot 661 is clamped outside the annular groove 651 of the pull rod 65, so that the pull rod 65 is limited, and then, the first sliding frame 61 and the unwinding device 6 in the rack 11 are prevented from moving. Thus, it can be seen that the structure in the present disclosure can also facilitate replacing the tape roll 9 located below the rack 11.
