Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of barcode recognition, in particular to an automatic barcode scanning device for a cigarette packaging line. Background Art
[0002] Cigarettes are packed in cigarette boxes and then packaged and transported on a conveyor belt. During the transportation of cigarettes, the barcode of the cigarette box needs to be identified so that the in and out information of the cigarette box can be saved in the computer to ensure the accuracy of the in and out information of the cigarette box.
[0003] The existing cigarette packaging line uses laser barcodes to scan the barcodes on cigarette boxes. Since the cigarette boxes are rectangular and the barcodes are located on the sides of the cigarette boxes rather than at both ends, the direction of the cigarette boxes needs to be manually adjusted during the transportation process to ensure that the barcodes on the cigarette boxes are facing upwards and scanned with the scanner on the top. Manual adjustment increases the labor cost of barcode scanning. After a long period of manual adjustment, some cigarette boxes are easily missed due to fatigue, affecting the applicability of the scanning device. Utility Model Content

[0021] The adjusting bucket 2 is set as "large at the top and small at the bottom". The bottom of the adjusting bucket 2 is connected to the discharge port 3, and the discharge port 3 is located above the transmission belt 2 6. The two sides of the guide plate 4 are welded and fixed to the inner wall of the adjusting bucket 2. The guide plate 4 is set at an angle, and a rectangular through groove is provided on the guide plate 4. Due to the rectangular shape of the cigarette box and the barcode on the side of the cigarette box, when the conveyor belt 1 transports the cigarette box to the inside of the adjusting bucket 2, it falls on the roller 5, and the cigarette box is discharged from the discharge port 3 through the rolling of the roller 5. The cigarette box is placed vertically through the discharge port 3 to ensure that the barcode on the side of the cigarette box can be moved to the bottom of the scanner 1 8 and the scanner 2 9. The roller 5 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rectangular through hole through a connecting shaft. The rollers 5 are evenly distributed in a linear array in the rectangular through groove. The surface of the limit plate 7 is set smoothly. The number of the limit plates 7 is two and they are symmetrically distributed. The limit plate 7 is an arc plate. The limit plate 7 is used to allow the barcode on the side of the transmission belt 2 6 to be discharged from the roller 5. The cigarette box is limited to ensure that the cigarette box is placed horizontally to avoid the cigarette box being tilted so that the barcode scanner 1 8 and the barcode scanner 2 9 cannot accurately scan the barcode on the side of the cigarette box. The barcode scanner 1 8 and the barcode scanner 2 9 are respectively located on both sides of the support frame 10. The support frame 10 is U-shaped.

The cigarette box is driven by the fixed plate 15 to rotate the guide strip 180 degrees to turn the cigarette box over. After the barcode scanner 2 9 scans again, it can be ensured that the barcode scanning on the side of the cigarette box will not be missed.
[0022] Working principle: When in use, the staff transports the cigarette box to the inside of the adjustment bucket 2 through the conveyor belt 1, and the cigarette box immediately falls on the roller 5 and slides downward under the action of gravity. After being discharged through the discharge port 3, the cigarette box is placed upright on the conveyor belt 2 6, so that the barcode on the side of the cigarette box can be moved to the bottom of the scanner 8, and the upright cigarette box is moved through the conveyor belt 2 6, and the barcode on the side of the cigarette box is scanned and identified by the scanner 8, and the cigarette box above the conveyor belt 2 6 is limited by the limit plate 7 to ensure that the cigarette box is placed horizontally, and to prevent the cigarette box from being tilted so that the scanner 1 8 and the barcode scanner 29 cannot accurately scan the barcode on the side of the cigarette box. When the transmission belt 26 then moves the cigarette box to the bottom of the support frame 10, the lifting plate 12 is moved downward by the cylinder 11, and then the fixed plate 15 and the rotating plate 17 clamp the two sides of the cigarette box through the extension of the electric telescopic rod 13 and the electric telescopic rod 2 16. While the cylinder 11 moves upward, the motor 14 is used to make the fixed plate 15 drive the cigarette box to rotate the guide strip 180 degrees, so that the cigarette box is turned over and placed on the transmission belt 26. After being scanned again by the barcode scanner 29, it can be ensured that the barcode scanning on the side of the cigarette box will not be missed.
