Definitions

  • ABSTRACT An automatic carton box fabricating apparatus.
  • the apparatus has upper and lower endless feed belts conveying blanks supplied one by one therebetween.
  • the endless belts support the lower portions of the parts of the blanks inside the creases on both side walls thereof.
  • Guide members press the upper portions of the parts of both side walls similarly inside the creases thereof, and folding belts fold the portions of both side walls outside the creases thereof over the guide members during the advancement of the blank.
  • a pressing plate presses down the bottom of the blank after the blank stops in a stopping position. At this point the side walls of the blank have been folded double by the guide members and folding belts'. Guide rods bending upwards pieces provided on the ends of both side walls when the blank is pressed down by the pressing plate. Guide members also bending upwards both side walls after each of the pieces is bent upwards similarly during descent of the blank, and guide members also bend upwards both end walls after both side walls are bent upwards during descending of the blank plate.
  • a receiving plate receives the carton made from the blank, supporting the bottom of the blank as it descends under the force of the pressing plate before the pressing plate reaches its lower limit of movement, and a delivery device carries the carton away-to a desired place.

  • ATTORNEYS mimmnmsum I 3.797370 sum 03 or 18 TET SUYA SAWADA INVENTOR.
  • This invention relates to an automatic carton fabricating apparatus for blending automatically blanks of paper board such as pasteboard and the like.
  • a process has been frequently used, wherein a carton is formed bycutting pasteboard in a suitable shape, and also making a blank with creases in required portions thereof and bending the blank manually into a carton.
  • various devices for automatically bending blanks have been proposed, but most of them are deficient in the efficiency of fabrication of cartons and in the quality of the carton fabricated.
  • the first object of this invention is to provide an apparatus for fabricating a carton fully automatically from blanks cut previously in a prescribed shape and creased by applying a small amount of bending to a very small portion and bending all the other portions without using any fittings.
  • the second object of this invention is to provide an apparatus for fabricating fully automatically cartons which are very rigid and which have an accurate shape, the peripheral walls of which are double and around the middle portion of the double wall on both sides of the carton the inner and outer walls thereof are adhered to each other with a bonding agent.
  • the third object of this invention is to provide an apparatus which has a device for feeding blanks automatically one by one from a pile of blanks'and which performs fully automatically the operation of fabricating the carton from the blank plate supplied from the feeding device by bending it correctly in a sequence of steps previously prescribed and delivering a completed carton from a delivery portion.
  • the fourth object of this invention is to provide an automatic carton fabricating apparatus provided with adjusting device which, for fabricating cartons of different sizes, can simply move the requiredportions to correspond to the size.
  • FIG. 1 is a side elevation view of the whole of the carton fabricating apparatus according to this invention.
  • FIG. 2 is an enlarged, partially longitudinally sectioned side view showing the principal parts of the blank plate supply device.
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective'view of the device of FIG. 2..
  • FIG. 4 is a longitudinal section on theline 4+4 in FIG. 2.
  • FIG. 5 is a longitudinalsection on the line 5-5 in FIG.2. i V
  • FIG. 6 is a longitudinally sectioned side view of the bending device for bending both side wand r the blank.
  • FIG. 7 is an enlarged section on the line 7-7 in FIG. 6. r
  • FIG. 8 is an enlarged section on theline-S-S in FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 9 is an enlarged section on the line 9--9 in FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 10 is an enlarged section on the line Ill-10 in FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 11 is an enlarged section on the line 11-11 in FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 12 is an enlarged section on the line 12-12 in FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 13 is a section on the line 13-13 in FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 14 is a section on the line 14--14 in FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 15 is a side view of the bending belt of said bending device and the supporting device therefore.
  • FIG. 16 is a perspective view of said bending belt.
  • FIG. 17 is an enlarged view of a guide member positioned along said bending belt.
  • FIG. 18 through FIG. 22 are enlarged cross sections showing stages of the bending of the side walls of the blank while being bent by said bending belt and guide member. 7
  • FIG. 23 is an enlarged longitudinally sectioned view of the carton forming part of the apparatus.
  • FIG. 24 is a longitudinally sectioned front view of the part of FIG. 23.
  • FIG. 25 is a cross-sectioned plan on the line 25-25 in FIG. 23.
  • FIG. 26 is a cross-sectioned plan on the line 26-26 in FIG. 23.

  • FIG. 29 is an enlarged side view of the part of FIG. 28.
  • FIG. 30 is a plan of the blank.
  • FIG. 31 through FIG; 34 are perspective views showing the order of steps in the blank plate.
  • FIG. 35 is the wiring diagram of the controlling circuit.
  • a rear frame 31 has a blank supply device thereona
  • the blank supply device as shown in FIG. 2, comprises stop plates 33 against whichthe front end of a pile of blanks 32 is piled, a supporting plate 34 similarly supporting therear end of the pile of blanks, a delivery roller 35 located below the stop plates 33 and upper and lower feed rollers 36 and 37 in front of the delivery roller 35.
  • the stop plates 33 are fixed near the center of a supporting rod 39 fixed to left and right side plates 38 mounted on the frame 31 at both ends thereof as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, and are two long vertical pieces.
  • the side stop plates 40 On opposite sides of the stop plates 33 are arranged the side stop plates 40 which engage the two sides of the pile of blanks 32.
  • Guide holes 42 are formed in guide members 41 fixed at the lower front side of the side stop plates 40 for slidably mounting the plates 40 on the supporting rod 39.
  • Threaded sleeves 43 are also mounted on the lower portion of the members 41 and are threaded on left and right hand external threads 45 on a shaft 44 having the ends rotatably mounted in said side plates 38.
