For the defects that manual adhesive tape pasting is low in efficiency and high in cost, and it is difficult to automatically paste adhesive tapes at specified positions of inner and outer surfaces of an item according to a certain length through a handheld box sealer and an adhesive tape seal pasting mechanism, a cantilever type plane automatic adhesive tape pasting device is invented. A liftable two-stage telescopic cantilever adhesive tape pasting head structure, a roller type automatic adhesive tape feeding structure, an adjustable fixed-length cutting structure and a roller type pasting structure are adopted for the device to achieve the automatic adhesive tape pasting on inner and outer side planes of an item. After the item needing adhesive tape pasting is positioned, the pasting process is completely automatically conducted without manual participation, the labor intensity is reduced, the labor efficiency is improved.

A tape applicator consistent with the present disclosure may include a tape applicator configured for applying a tape, such as a pressure sensitive adhesive tape to a carton (e.g., for sealing and/or assembling the carton). One or more rollers may be utilized to aid in applying the pressure sensitive adhesive tape to a carton. Furthermore, a wiper aids in applying pressure sensitive adhesive tape to a carton (e.g., before and/or after the one or more rollers). The wiper may be a split wiper having a first portion and a second portion, which allows for applying adhesive tape to a carton when the carton is under-packed or over-packed, and thus, the flaps of the carton are not level with respect to each other (e.g., the edges are not located in the same plane).

The present disclosure provides a carton sealer adopting a wet tape. After passing through a space between an upper conveying roller and a lower conveying roller, a tape pulled out of a tape roll mounted on an unwinding device sequentially passes through a tape through hole of a tape cutting device, passes by a wetting roller of a wetting device, and extends out of the downside of a lifting frame. During work, the tape is cut off by the tape cutting device, and the cut tape extends to the downside of the lifting frame after being wetted by the wetting roller. After a carton to be packaged is conveyed to the position of a portal frame and is moved to the position of the extended wet tape, the wet tape is stuck to a gap between two sealing plates of the carton and is driven to move with the carton.

An adhesive tape case sealer machine comprises a machine seat (1), an upper machine core provided on the upper portion of the machine seat for sealing the upper part of the case, a lower machine core (3) provided on the lower portion of the machine seat for sealing the lower part of the case, and a conveyor device (4) for conveying the case, the lower machine core being slidingly connected to the machine seat. By sliding the lower machine core with respect to the machine seat, it is easy to pull the lower machine core out from the machine seat, and to quickly replace the adhesive tape for it, so that replacing the adhesive tape is convenient, efficiency of operations is high, and it is more suitable for high-speed, large-scaled assembly link operation.

The invention relates to a folding device (10) for transporting an outer cardboard package (20) having folding lines and for folding at least one side flap (21) of the outer cardboard package (20). The folding device (10) comprises at least one conveyor system with a guiding unit (11) and with at least two transporting units (30) disposed on the guiding unit (11) for the transport of the outer cardboard packages (20) in a transport direction (TR). The at least two transporting units (30) are disposed in a row at the conveyor system and are transported in transport direction (TR) through and/or by the conveyor system. Each transporting unit (30) comprises an own, individually controllable drive (32) and further at least one folding unit (35) for folding over at least one side flap (21) of an outer cardboard package (20).

A taping machine includes: a conveyor to convey the battery cell to a taping part and a finish processing part in this order; a tape supply part configured such that the insulation tape is wound therearound and is moved while being unwound in a direction corresponding to a moving direction of the conveyor; a taping part for attaching the insulation tape to the battery cell, the taping part being configured to cut the insulation tape positioned thereon into a length of 80% to 100% of the length of a to-be-insulated portion and temporality attach the cut insulation tape to the to-be-insulated portion; and a finish processing part for attaching the tape to the battery cell, the finish processing portion pressing the insulation tape in a state in which the battery is received from the taping part so that the insulation tape is attached to the entire to-be-insulated portion.

A box holder comprises: a pair of T-frames arranged parallel to face opposite directions, each T-frame having a crossbar and a stem, each edge of the T-frame being bent downward to form a vertical bracket; U-shaped extensions formed at open edges of the T-frame, each end of the U-shaped extensions being connected to the vertical bracket; and reinforcement elements formed along the crossbars of the T-frames.

A device, system, and method for loading empty and formed six-pack bottle carriers into a larger case (i.e. a multi-pack) is provided. The packaging device includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The six-pack carriers are formed by unfolding them in the upper portion. Various components are associated with the upper portion of the packaging device. The case receives a plurality of six-pack carriers therein. The larger cases is formed by unfolding them in the lower portion of the packaging device. Various components are associated with the lower portion of the packaging device. The upper portion and lower portion operate simultaneously to efficiently produce a case have empty six-pack carriers placed therein for later filling with bottles at a downstream destination. The system includes the machine, the cases, the six-pack carriers, and the bottles, operating collectively.

Various embodiments provide a case-handling system including multiple flap-suppressing devices that can be vertically moved independently of one another to, when processing a case, enable the case-handling system to prepare for and receive the next case to-be-processed while the case-handling system is still folding the upper major flaps of the current case, which increases throughput.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a random case sealer. The case sealer includes a top-head-actuating assembly configured to vary the speed of the top-head assembly when ascending (to make room for the case beneath the top-head assembly) and when descending onto the case (to engage the top surface of the case during sealing). This maximizes the speed of the top-head assembly while limiting overshoot (when ascending) and preventing damage to the case (when descending). In certain embodiments the case sealer includes a tape cartridge configured to limit the forces imparted onto the leading and top surfaces of the case during sealing. These features result in increased throughput as compared to prior art random case sealers without requiring stronger cases or more protective dunnage.
