DETAIL DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

(7) In the following, the preferable embodiments of the present invention are explained in detail combining with the accompanying drawings so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be easily understood by the skilled persons in the art, and thus it is clear to define the protective scope of the present invention.

(8) Embodiments

(9) An adhesive tape case sealer machine with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5, comprises a machine seat 1, an upper machine core (not shown in the figures) provided on the upper portion of the machine seat 1 for sealing the upper part of the case, a lower machine core 3 provided on the lower portion of the machine seat 1 for sealing the lower part of the case, and a conveyor device 4 for conveying the case, wherein adhesive tapes are provided within the upper machine core and the lower machine core 3, and the conveyor device 4 is below the upper machine core.

(10) Due to that the upper machine core is not the main point of the present invention and the structure of the upper machine core is already familiar to the skilled persons in the art, the upper machine core will therefore not be discussed herein.

(11) A slide track is provided on the machine seat 1, and the lower machine core 3 is slidingly provided on the slide track of the machine seat 1 below the conveyor device 4. The slide track is a commonly used part of mechanical equipment, and thus is not shown in the figures. The lower machine core 3 has at least two working positions. The lower machine core 3 lies in the inner side of the machine seat 1 and below the conveyor device 4 when in a first working position, as shown in FIG. 1; at least a part of the lower machine core 3 slides out of the machine seat 1 and it allows the lower machine core 3 to slide towards the first working position with respect to the machine seat 1 when in a second working position, as shown in FIG. 2.

(12) In the preferable embodiments of FIGS. 1-5, the sliding direction of the lower machine core 3 with respect to the machine seat 1 is perpendicular to a direction in which the case is conveyed by the conveyor device 4, and the sliding direction of the lower machine core 3 is substantially parallel to horizontal plane.

(13) The lower machine core 3 is locked to the machine seat 1 via a lock mechanism 31, wherein the lower machine core 3 can slide with respect to the machine seat 1 when the lock mechanism 31 is in an unlock state, and the lower machine core 3 is fixed with respect to the machine seat 1 is when the lock mechanism 31 is in a lock state.

(14) As shown in FIG. 3, the lower machine core 3 comprises a machine core support 32, a machine core side plate 33, an adhesive tape installation device 34, a pressure roller device 35 and a tape cutting device 36, wherein the machine core support 32 is connected to the slide track and may slide along the slide track, and the machine core side plate 33, the adhesive tape installation device 34, the pressure roller device 35 and the tape cutting device 36 are fixed provided on the machine core support 32. When the lower machine core 3 is in the first working position, the adhesive tape installation device 34, the pressure roller device 34 and the tape cutting device 36 are located substantially right below the conveyor device 4. Due to that the machine core side plate 33, the adhesive tape installation device 34, the pressure roller device 35 and the tape cutting device 36 are of prior arts, and thus will not shown in the figures in detail.

(15) The lock mechanism 31 comprises a stop block 311 rotatably provided on the machine core support 32, a handle 312 provided on the machine core support 32 and in linkage with the stop block 311 to control the rotation or moving of the stop block 311, and a groove 313 provided on the machine seat 1 matching up with the stop block 311. By rotating the handle 312 to keep the stop block 311 away from the groove 313, the lock mechanism 31 is turned to be unlocked; by rotating or moving the stop block 311 into the groove 313 and to be stuck in the groove 313 via the handle 312, the lock mechanism 31 turns to the lock state.

(16) When the lower machine core 3 is in the first working position, it is better for the lock mechanism 31 to lock the lower machine core 3 to the machine seat 1. The adhesive tape case sealer machine as shown in FIG. 1-2 further comprises a first linear slide track 51 fixed provided on the machine seat 1 and a second linear slide track 52 installed on the machine core support 32 of the lower machine core 3, wherein the first linear slide track 51 and the second linear slide track 52 butt together and form a track for conveying the case by co-action when the lower machine core 3 is in the first working position, as shown in FIG. 1; and the second linear slide track 52 slides and leaves away from the first linear slide track 51 as the lower machine core 3 slides out of the machine seat 1, as shown in FIG. 2.

(17) As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5. the machine seat 1 is further provided with a travel switch 6 for controlling the conveyor device 4 to lift and fall, the travel switch 6 being provided on the portion of the machine seat 1 corresponding to the machine core support 32 of the lower machine core 3, wherein the travel switch 6 controls the electrical machine for driving the conveyor device and the conveyor device 4 via an air cylinder 7. When the lower machine core 3 slides from the first working position to the second working position, the machine core support 32 leaves away from the travel switch 6, the electrical machine for driving the conveyor device stops running, and the conveyor device 4 lifts up for a distance from the machine seat; when the lower machine core 3 slides back to the first working position, the machine core support 32 touches the travel switch 6 and the conveyor device 4 falls down onto the machine seat 1. Due to that the conveyor device 4 lifts up when the lower machine core leaves the first working position and slides towards the outside of the machine seat 1, the lower machine core 3 can thus slide without hindrance and be smoothly pulled out to replace the adhesive tape, effectively avoiding the situation that the lower machine core 3 is stuck by the conveyor device 4 and cannot be pulled out. Furthermore, the travel switch 6 is used so that electrical elements and mechanical elements are combined together, the conveyor belt of the conveyor device and the electrical machine automatically stop running when the lower machine core 3 is pulled out, with higher safety performance.
