A paper box package forming apparatus includes a continuous feeding device, a box folding mechanism and a cover sealing mechanism. The continuous feeding device includes a paperboard stacking frame, an adsorption mechanism and a roll extrusion conveying mechanism. A paperboard is absorbed from a back side of the paperboard stacking frame through the adsorption mechanism and conveyed to a box folding device through the roll extrusion conveying mechanism. The box folding device includes a downward-pressing inner punch, a box folding outer mold and a pushing mechanism. The pushing mechanism conveys a bottom box to the cover sealing mechanism. The downward-pressing and attaching mechanism includes downward-pressing driving mechanism, a top-pressing plate, side-pressing plates and overturning cylinders. The side-pressing plates are hinged to side edges of the top-pressing plate through the driving of the overturning cylinders.

The technology described herein generally relates to an automated packaging apparatus and system that packages loose particles into a conical container as well as the final folded packages. More specifically, loose plant matter, such as crumbled dried leaves, are supplied to successive paper cones. The apparatus packs the crumbled leaves into the cones, applies air bursts to pack the material within the cone, closes the wide top portion of the cone, and then runs a quality control check to ensure that the final filled cone meets preset specifications.

A machine for forming packing templates includes a infeed mechanism that can feed multiple feeds of sheet material into the machine without repositioning the infeed mechanism or forming creases or bends in the sheet material. The machine also includes a separation and cutting systems with one or more cutting tables and biased knives that cut the sheet material packaging templates. The machine also includes creasing roller(s) that forms creases in the sheet material. The machine also includes a system for reducing or eliminating the impact of irregularities in the sheet material.

Provided is a gluer apparatus capable of reducing slowdown or delay of a to-be-bonded part due to a contact-type glue gun, and a conveyance assist device for the gluer apparatus. A folder-gluer is configured to apply a glue to a gluing tab of a corrugated paperboard sheet by a glue application device. The corrugated paperboard sheet comprises a folding panel provided with the gluing tab, and a non-folding panel connected to the folding panel through a connection part. A lower conveyance belt of the folder-gluer is configured to convey the non-folding panel in a conveyance direction while contacting the non-folding panel. Further, a conveyance assist device of the folder-gluer is configured to convey the folding panel in the conveyance direction while contacting the folding panel, during contact between a glue application device and the gluing tab.

A machine for making corrugated paperboard boxes form corrugated paperboard sheets includes a slotter device with a blade that forms slots in the corrugated paperboard sheet. The machine can handle various sizes and configurations of corrugated paperboard sheets and can determine if the blade of the slotter device has a suitable length to form slots in each of the various corrugated paperboard sheets, using parameters including a circumferential length (N) of the slotter cylinder and dimensions (E, F, G) of the corrugated paperboard sheet.

A carton feeding and shuttle machine includes first and second servo drives for driving first and second belts positioned on a plurality of pulleys, a first block attached to the first belt and supporting a first support shaft and a second block attached to the second belt and supporting a second support shaft. A controller controls the servo drives for driving the first and second belts. A linkage assembly includes a plurality of links configured to move a plucking head along a shaft in response to movements of the first and second belts. Specifically, relative movement of the first and second belts pivots first and third links about a first support shaft and second and fourth links about a second support shaft drawing a base along a slide shaft and extending the plucking head from a first position to a second position for engaging a carton blank in a carton blank stack.

In a carton feeding device for feeding cartons to a conveyor track, comprising a replaceable pick-up head attached to the carton feeding device at an attachment, where a pick-up head comprises a plurality of vacuum cups and an erecting means pivotally suspended at the pick-up head, where the attachment for the pick-up head is arranged on a rotor arm, where the attachment is adapted to receive different pick-up heads, and that the carton feeding device comprises an actuator means comprising a first interface adapted to actuate a leading edge erecting arm and a second interface adapted to actuate a trailing edge erecting arm. The advantage of the invention is that a carton feeding device that can easily be switched between leading edge erection or trailing edge erection of flat-folded cartons blanks is provided.
