Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cigarette machinery and equipment technology, and more specifically, to a small box packaging paper cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] The YB45 packaging equipment is a commonly used forming packaging equipment on packaging production lines. In actual production operations, its feeding process is still mainly manual, and the overall level of automation is relatively low. Under the current operating mode, workers need to manually tear and peel off the outer packaging paper covering the small boxes of raw materials one by one, and then manually place the processed small boxes of materials onto the material conveyor belt of the equipment to complete the pre-feeding operation.

[0003] This operation method relies heavily on manual intervention. On the one hand, the repetitive actions of tearing off outer packaging and placing materials for extended periods significantly increase the labor intensity of operators, easily leading to fatigue. On the other hand, manual operation has limited speed and poor consistency, which not only restricts the operating rhythm and production efficiency of the entire packaging production line but also makes it difficult to meet the needs of modern large-scale, continuous packaging production. Furthermore, the purely manual material loading model results in high labor costs, which is detrimental to improving enterprise production efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide a small box packaging paper cutting device has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a new technical solution for a small box packaging paper cutting device.

[0006] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a small box packaging paper cutting device is provided, comprising: a support plate, an adsorption assembly, a cutting assembly, a moving assembly, a controller, and a collection box;

[0007] The adsorption assembly includes a fixed base plate, a stretching cylinder, a fixed seat, multiple air distribution rods, and multiple suction cups. The fixed base plate is disposed on the support plate, the stretching cylinder is disposed on the fixed base plate, and the output shaft of the stretching cylinder is connected to the fixed seat. The multiple air distribution rods are evenly spaced along the length of the fixed seat, and the first end of each air distribution rod is connected to the suction cup. The first end of each air distribution rod is used to connect to an external air pressure source, and the suction cup is used to adsorb the packaging paper on the outside of the small box.

[0008] The cutting component is positioned above the suction cup and is used to cut the outer packaging paper of the small box;

[0009] The movable component is disposed at the bottom of the support plate, and the movable component is used to absorb the cut packaging paper and move it into the collection box;

[0011] Optionally, the adsorption assembly further includes a connecting plate disposed on the side wall of the fixed base, and the output shaft of the stretching cylinder is connected to the connecting plate.

[0012] Optionally, the adsorption assembly further includes an air guide hole and a connecting pipe. The air guide hole is disposed on the fixed base and penetrates the side wall of the fixed base. The air guide hole is connected to a plurality of the air distribution rods respectively. The first end of the connecting pipe is connected to the air guide hole, and the second end of the connecting pipe is used to connect to an external air pressure source.

[0013] Optionally, the cutting assembly includes a cutting cylinder and a cutter. The cutting cylinder is mounted on the frame of the packaging machine and connected to the cutter. The cutter is used to cut the outer packaging paper of the small box.

[0014] The controller is electrically connected to the cutting cylinder.

[0015] Optionally, the cutter has a gap between its orthographic projection on the small box and the center of the small box.

[0016] Optionally, the moving component includes a rotary cylinder, a swing arm support, a swing rod, an air distribution block, and a suction nozzle. The rotary cylinder is disposed at the bottom of the support plate, and the output shaft of the rotary cylinder is connected to the swing arm support.

[0018] Optionally, the moving component further includes a mounting base, which is fixed to the support plate and located on both sides of the rotary cylinder, and the mounting base is connected to the rotary cylinder.

[0019] Optionally, the moving component further includes multiple connection holes and a solenoid valve. The multiple connection holes are evenly spaced on the gas distribution block, the solenoid valve is disposed in the connection hole, the suction nozzle communicates with the connection hole, and the controller is electrically connected to the solenoid valve.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

A cutting component precisely cuts the packaging paper, completing the separation process. The cut waste packaging paper is picked up by a bottom moving component and automatically transferred to a collection bin for centralized storage.

[0030] In all the examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment of the invention provides a small box packaging paper cutting device, including: a support plate 1, an adsorption component 2, a cutting component 3, a moving component 4, a controller, and a collection box;

[0032] The adsorption assembly 2 includes a fixed base plate 21, a stretching cylinder 22, a fixed seat 23, multiple air distribution rods 24, and multiple suction cups 25. The fixed base plate 21 is mounted on the support plate 1, the stretching cylinder 22 is mounted on the fixed base plate 21, and the output shaft of the stretching cylinder 22 is connected to the fixed seat 23. The multiple air distribution rods 24 are evenly spaced along the length of the fixed seat 23, and the first end of the air distribution rod 24 is connected to the suction cup 25. The first end of the air distribution rod 24 is used to connect to an external air pressure source, and the suction cup 25 is used to adsorb the packaging paper 6 on the outside of the small box 5.

[0033] The cutting component 3 is positioned above the suction cup 25 and is used to cut the outer packaging paper 6 of the small box 5.

[0034] The moving component 4 is located at the bottom of the support plate 1. The moving component 4 is used to absorb the cut packaging paper 6 and move it into the collection box.

[0035] The controller is electrically connected to the stretching cylinder 22, the cutting assembly 3, and the moving assembly 4.

[0036] In use, the controller first controls the stretching cylinder 22 to operate, which drives the fixed base 23 to extend, causing the air distribution rod 24 and suction cup 25 to come close to the outer packaging paper 6 of the small box 5. At this time, the controller controls the external air pressure source to supply air, so that the suction cup 25 firmly adheres to the outer packaging paper 6. Next, the controller controls the stretching cylinder 22 to retract, so that the fixed base 23, air distribution rod 24 and suction cup 25 move towards the support plate 1, thereby moving the packaging paper 6 to create a certain gap between the packaging paper 6 and the small box 5.

[0037] Next, the controller controls the cutting component 3 to precisely cut the packaging paper 6, separating the packaging paper 6 from the box 5 body.

[0038] Next, the controller controls the moving component 4 to move so that the moving component 4 can pick up the cut packaging paper 6 and move it into the collection box, thereby completing the cutting and recycling process of the packaging paper 6 on the outside of the small box 5.

[0039] This invention utilizes a combination of a stretching cylinder 22, an air distribution rod 24, and a suction cup 25 to reliably adsorb the outer packaging paper 6 of the small box 5. The cutting component 3 precisely cuts the packaging paper 6, completing the separation process. The cut waste packaging paper 6 is picked up by the bottom moving component 4 and automatically transferred to a collection box for centralized storage. A unified electronic control system ensures the orderly start and stop of each mechanism and coordinated action. This invention effectively replaces traditional manual operation, significantly reducing the labor intensity of workers, minimizing manpower input, and lowering production costs. Simultaneously, automatic waste collection maintains a clean working environment, avoids equipment operation hazards caused by waste accumulation, and effectively solves the pain point of insufficient automation in the original material feeding process.

[0040] In one embodiment of the small box packaging paper cutting device of the present invention, the adsorption component 2 further includes a connecting plate 26, which is disposed on the side wall of the fixed base 23, and the output shaft of the stretching cylinder 22 is connected to the connecting plate 26.

[0041] The present invention installs the connecting plate 26 on the side wall of the fixed base 23, so that the output shaft of the tension cylinder 22 is connected to the connecting plate 26. This allows the cylinder driving force to be applied evenly to the entire fixed base 23, avoiding local stress concentration caused by the cylinder being directly connected to the fixed base 23, effectively protecting the structure of the fixed base 23 and extending the service life of the components.

[0042] In one embodiment of the small box packaging paper cutting device of the present invention, the adsorption component 2 further includes an air guide hole and a connecting pipe. The air guide hole is disposed on the fixed base 23 and penetrates the side wall of the fixed base 23. The air guide hole is connected to a plurality of air distribution rods 24 respectively. The first end of the connecting pipe is connected to the air guide hole, and the second end of the connecting pipe is used to connect to an external air pressure source.

[0043] This invention achieves single-path air intake and multi-path uniform pressure supply by incorporating an air guide hole in the fixed base 23 and connecting it to multiple air distribution rods 24, and then connecting it to an external air pressure source via a connecting pipe. This effectively ensures that the vacuum suction force of each suction cup 25 is consistent, avoids the problems of uneven suction force, adsorption deviation or detachment of a single set of suction cups 25, and greatly improves the overall stability of the adsorption of the outer packaging paper 6 of the small box 5.

[0044] Meanwhile, the built-in air guide holes form an integrated air supply structure, replacing scattered external pipeline wiring, simplifying the equipment pipeline layout, making the structure more regular and compact, and reducing the risk of pipeline entanglement, wear and tear and other malfunctions.

[0045] In one embodiment of the small box packaging paper cutting device of the present invention, the cutting component 3 includes a cutting cylinder 31 and a cutter 32. The cutting cylinder 31 is mounted on the frame of the packaging machine and is connected to the cutter 32. The cutter 32 is used to cut the packaging paper 6 on the outside of the small box 5.

[0046] The controller is electrically connected to the cutting cylinder 31.

[0047] This invention adopts a structure in which a cutting cylinder 31 drives a cutter 32. The overall structure is simple and compact, and the operation is reliable. It achieves automated and precise cutting through electronic control linkage with a controller, replacing manual tearing of packaging paper 6. The cutting action is regular and consistent, effectively avoiding the problems of uneven tearing force, incomplete tearing, and damage to the small box 5 caused by manual tearing.

[0048] The cutting cylinder 31 is fixed on the equipment frame, which is stable and has strong rigidity, ensuring that the cutting blade 32 is in a precise working position and greatly improving the cutting efficiency and cutting quality of the outer packaging paper 6.

[0049] In one embodiment of the small box packaging paper cutting device of the present invention, there is a gap between the orthographic projection of the cutter 32 on the small box 5 and the center of the small box 5.

[0050] Specifically, by leaving a pre-existing gap between the cutter 32 and the center of the small box 5, the cutter 32 can be prevented from accidentally damaging the small box 5 during cutting, effectively protecting the product's integrity. At the same time, it can prevent fragments of the packaging paper 6 from sticking to the surface of the small box 5 after tearing, improving the quality of the finished product, reducing the risk of material jamming, and ensuring smooth equipment operation.

[0051] In one embodiment of the small box packaging paper cutting device of the present invention, the moving component 4 includes a rotary cylinder 41, a swing arm support 42, a swing rod 43, an air distribution block 44, and a suction nozzle 45. The rotary cylinder 41 is disposed at the bottom of the support plate 1, and the output shaft of the rotary cylinder 41 is connected to the swing arm support 42. The two ends of the swing rod 43 are respectively connected to the swing arm support 42 and the air distribution block 44. The suction nozzle 45 is disposed on the air distribution block 44, and the air distribution block 44 is connected to an external air pressure source.

[0052] The rotary cylinder 41 and the air distribution block 44 are electrically connected to the controller.

[0053] It should be noted that the external air pressure source can be an air compressor or other device using existing technology, and there are no restrictions on this.

[0054] This invention, through the combination of a rotary cylinder 41, a swing arm, an air distribution block 44, and a suction nozzle 45, can achieve multi-angle transfer and conveying, with a flexible range of movement, and can accurately transfer waste packaging paper 6 to the collection box.

[0055] The mobile component 4 has a compact layout and is installed at the bottom of the support plate 1. It does not occupy the working space above, and its mechanical transmission is simple, its operation is stable, its failure rate is low, and it is easy to carry out daily inspection and maintenance, so as to continuously ensure the efficient operation of the waste recycling process.

[0056] In one embodiment of the small box packaging paper cutting device of the present invention, the moving component 4 further includes a mounting base 46, which is fixed on the support plate 1 and located on both sides of the rotary cylinder 41. The mounting base 46 is connected to the rotary cylinder 41.

[0057] The present invention uses the mounting base 46 to fix and limit the rotary cylinder 41, which can improve the cylinder installation firmness, counteract the vibration and torque generated by the rotation operation, prevent deviation and shaking during operation, effectively ensure the accurate movement trajectory of the swing arm 43 and the suction nozzle 45, and improve the positioning accuracy of waste material transfer.

[0058] In one embodiment of the small box packaging paper cutting device of the present invention, the moving component 4 further includes a plurality of connecting holes and a solenoid valve. The plurality of connecting holes are evenly spaced on the air distribution block 44, the solenoid valve is disposed in the connecting hole, the suction nozzle 45 is connected to the connecting hole, and the controller is electrically connected to the solenoid valve.

[0059] This invention uses a controller to uniformly regulate the solenoid valves, resulting in rapid response and precise timing to prevent waste from falling. Each solenoid valve independently controls the airflow to its corresponding suction nozzle 45, enabling precise adsorption and release in designated areas, and adapting to the gripping of waste of different sizes.

[0060] After the cutting component 3 finishes cutting the packaging paper 6, the controller drives the rotary cylinder 41 to work. The rotary cylinder 41 swings according to the set stroke and drives the suction nozzle 45 to the working position, that is, the air distribution block 44 and the suction nozzle 45 move to contact the packaging paper 6. At this time, the controller controls the air distribution block 44 to work so that multiple suction nozzles 45 can simultaneously suck up the packaging paper 6 of the small box 5. Then, the controller drives the rotary cylinder 41 to work, the rotary cylinder 41 returns to the initial position, and controls the air distribution block 44 to stop working, so that the suction nozzle 45 loses negative pressure suction, and the packaging paper 6 falls into the collection box.

[0061] While specific embodiments of the invention have been described in detail by way of examples, those skilled in the art should understand that the examples are for illustrative purposes only and not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can be made to the above embodiments without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention. The scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims.
