For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0029] To at least partially solve the problem that the manual addition of cigarette packs is inefficient and may cause the cigarette packs to be damaged, resulting in reduced production efficiency, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a cigarette pack secondary adding device for adding inspected cigarette packs back to the cigarette pack conveyor belt.

[0030] The cigarette pack secondary adding device includes a base 52, a cigarette storage support 1, a multi-claw wheel 3 and a steering guide rail. The base 52 is used to connect with the cigarette pack conveyor belt, and the base 52 can be used as the installation base of other structures on the cigarette pack secondary adding device. The cigarette storage support 1 is set on the base 52, and the cigarette storage support 1 is used to store the inspected cigarette packs. The cigarette storage support 1 is configured to enable the cigarette packs to slide along the cigarette storage support 1 to the exit of the cigarette storage support 1. The cigarette storage support 1 forms a storage space for cigarette packs, and the inspected cigarette packs can be added back to the cigarette storage support 1. The cigarette storage support 1 can store multiple cigarette packs at the same time, and the multiple cigarette packs can be arranged in sequence in the cigarette storage support 1. The cigarette storage support 1 can be installed on the base 52 through a bending support 14. The number of the bending support 14 can be two. The bending support 14 can be connected to the base 52 through screws. The cigarette storage support 1 can be connected to the bending support 14 through screws. The bending support 14 forms an angle. When the cigarette storage support 1 is installed on the bending support 14, the cigarette storage support 1 can maintain an inclined state, and the cigarette package in the cigarette storage support 1 can slide along the inclined cigarette storage support 1 under the action of gravity. The multi-claw wheel 3 is rotatably arranged at the exit of the cigarette storage support 1 to receive the cigarette package sliding out of the cigarette storage support 1. The multi-claw wheel 3 is provided with a plurality of claws. When the multi-claw wheel 3 rotates, the cigarette package can be driven to rotate through the claws. After the cigarette package falls on the multi-claw wheel 3, it can move together with the rotation of the multi-claw wheel 3 under the action of the claws. For example, the multi-claw wheel 3 can be provided with three or three pairs of claws. At this time, the multi-claw wheel 3 is a three-claw wheel. The multi-claw wheel 3 can be rotated under the action of a driving device or can be manually driven. This is not limited in this embodiment. The turning guide rail includes a connected straight segment 22 and an arc segment 21. The arc segment 21 surrounds the outer side of the multi-claw wheel 3 and is arranged concentrically with the multi-claw wheel 3. A space for cigarette packs to pass through is formed between the arc segment 21 and the multi-claw wheel 3. The straight segment 22 is used to guide the cigarette packs from the arc segment 21 to the cigarette pack conveyor belt. In this embodiment, the cigarette pack posture is adjusted by the turning guide rail so that the cigarette pack can be converted into a posture suitable for conveying on the cigarette pack conveyor belt. For example, the cigarette pack can be in a front-lying state in the cigarette storage support 1. After the action of the multi-claw wheel 3 and the turning guide rail, it can be changed into a side-standing posture and reach the cigarette pack conveyor belt, so as to be conveyed on the cigarette pack conveyor belt.

[0031] The cigarette pack secondary adding device provided in the embodiment of the present application is provided with a cigarette storage support 1 and a multi-claw wheel 3. After the cigarette packs to be secondary added are stored in the cigarette storage support 1, the three-claw wheel is driven to rotate to convey the cigarette packs in the cigarette storage support 1 to the cigarette pack conveyor belt, thereby realizing convenient placement of the cigarette packs before oil sealing. The cigarette pack secondary adding device provided in the embodiment of the present application can realize rapid addition of cigarette packs while reducing damage to cigarette packs during the addition process. The device effectively reduces labor intensity, improves work efficiency, and has good practicality.

[0032] In some embodiments, the cigarette storage support 1 includes at least two "L"-shaped rails, and the at least two "L"-shaped rails form at least two opposite corners of the same rectangle, and the size of the rectangle corresponds to the size of one face of the cigarette pack. Exemplarily, the cigarette storage support 1 may include two "L"-shaped rails, three "L"-shaped rails, or four "L"-shaped rails. This arrangement can form a space for accommodating cigarette packs between multiple "L"-shaped rails, and when the rails are tilted, the cigarette packs can slide along the "L"-shaped rails.

[0033] In some embodiments, the cigarette storage support 1 includes four "L"-shaped rails, and the four "L"-shaped rails form four corners of a rectangle. This arrangement can make the cigarette packs in the cigarette storage support 1 more stable, and also make the cigarette packs slide more stably along the rails.

[0034] In some embodiments, one of the four "L"-shaped rails is shorter than the other "L"-shaped rails. In this arrangement, an entrance for conveniently adding cigarette packs to the cigarette storage support 1 can be formed at the position of the shorter "L"-shaped rail, thereby making it more convenient to add cigarette packs.

[0035] Please combine Figure 3 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the secondary cigarette pack adding device further includes a motor support 4, a driving motor and a sleeve 41. The motor support 4 is connected to the base 52; the driving motor is arranged on the motor support 4; the sleeve 41 is drivingly connected to the output shaft of the driving motor, and the multi-claw wheel 3 is sleeved on the sleeve 41. The sleeve 41 can be sleeved on the output shaft of the driving motor and fastened with screws. In this embodiment, the multi-claw wheel 3 is driven by the driving motor to rotate, which can save manpower and make the multi-claw wheel 3 easier to realize automatic control. A through hole 411 can be opened on the sleeve 41, and a screw hole 33 can be opened at a corresponding position on the multi-claw wheel 3. The screw passes through the through hole 411 and is threadedly matched with the screw hole 33 on the multi-claw wheel 3. Exemplarily, the number of the through hole 411 and the screw hole 33 can be three, and the screw can be a standard screw.

[0036] In some embodiments, the straight segment 22 and the arc segment 21 are hingedly connected, and the arc segment 21 can rotate in a direction away from the multi-claw wheel 3. A sensor is provided on the arc segment 21, and the sensor is used to detect the rotation of the arc segment 21, and the sensor is connected to the drive motor. Exemplarily, the sensor can be a capacitive proximity switch, and the sensor can be set at the free end of the arc segment 21, and detect the distance between the free end of the arc segment 21 and the predetermined position. When the distance changes, the sensor generates an electrical signal and transmits it to the drive motor, thereby controlling the working state of the drive motor. In this embodiment, when the claw grabs two or more cigarette packs at the same time, that is, when more than one cigarette pack enters at a time, the arc segment 21 will be pushed out, and the sensor will detect the rotation of the arc segment 21, and send a signal to the drive motor to stop working, so that the multi-claw wheel 3 stops rotating and the device stops running. Exemplarily, the straight segment 22 and the arc segment 21 can be hingedly connected through a hinge.

[0037] In some embodiments, a magnetic piece is provided on the arc segment 21, and the magnetic piece limits the rotation of the arc segment 21 by magnetic force. It can be understood that when the arc segment 21 is hingedly connected to the straight segment 22, even if only one pack of cigarettes passes through the arc segment 21, it may cause the arc segment 21 to rotate, affecting the normal operation of the device. Therefore, in this embodiment, by providing a magnetic piece, a force exceeding the threshold is required for the cigarette pack to push open the arc segment 21. By selecting a magnetic piece with suitable magnetic force, one cigarette pack cannot push open the arc segment 21, while two cigarette packs can push open the arc segment 21. Of course, in other embodiments, an elastic piece can also be provided at the hinged connection between the arc segment 21 and the straight segment 22, so that the arc segment 21 is kept in a normal working position by elastic force.

[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the multi-claw wheel 3 includes two coaxially arranged circular disks, the claws are distributed along the circumference of the circular disks, the claws on the two circular disks correspond to each other in the circumferential position of the circular disks, and the two circular disks can be processed from a complete piece of plastic. The two circular disks are distributed left and right. Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the multi-claw wheel 3 includes 3 pairs (i.e., 6) of claws, and the two claws in each pair of claws correspond to each other in the circumferential position of the disc. The three-claw wheel rotates one circle to sequentially separate the three cigarette packs connected together in the cigarette bin and transport them to the cigarette pack conveying track, thereby changing the cigarette packs from lying flat on the front to standing upright on the side on the track, and making the cigarette packs on the cigarette pack conveying track equidistant. The claws may include a first claw 311 and a second claw 312 that have been chamfered, and the first claw 311 and the second claw 312 form a pair of claws, and the first claw 311 and the second claw 312 correspond to each other in the circumferential position of the disc to achieve a side-by-side arrangement. Figure 4As shown, the distance between the first claw 311 and the second claw 312 is less than the length of the cigarette pack, for example, it can be 40mm, so that the two claws can grasp the positions of the first positioning point 71 and the second positioning point 72 on the side of the cigarette pack, and the first positioning point 71 and the second positioning point 72 are 20mm away from their corresponding ends respectively. The height of the claw is lower than the thickness of the cigarette pack to avoid the claw moving two packs of cigarettes at the same time. For example, the height of the claw can be 18mm, which is 4mm less than the thickness of the cigarette pack, and the width of the claw can be 8mm. A supporting portion corresponding to the claw is also formed on the circular disk. For example, the first supporting portion 321 corresponds to the first claw 311 or the second claw 312 ( Figure 3 The multi-claw wheel 3 rotates counterclockwise), the second supporting portion 322 corresponds to the third claw 313, wherein the supporting portion (e.g., the second supporting portion 322) corresponding to one claw (e.g., the third claw 313) is located in front of one claw along the rotation direction of the multi-claw wheel 3, and is lower in height than one claw, and extends from one claw along the circumferential direction of the multi-claw wheel 3 and extends to the previous claw (e.g., the first claw 311) of one claw along the rotation direction of the multi-claw wheel 3. Figure 4 For example, each time a pack of cigarettes falls from the cigarette storage support 1 onto the multi-claw wheel 3, when the first pack of cigarettes is caught by the first claw 311 and the second claw 312, it enters the first supporting part 321 in front of the gear, and the second pack of cigarettes moves downward with the first pack of cigarettes and enters the second supporting part 322 behind the first claw 311. When a pack of cigarettes falls into the cigarette pack conveyor belt through the gap between the straight section 22 and the lower baffle 51 and the cigarette pack conveying guide rail 6, the second pack of cigarettes follows the second supporting part 322 above the first claw 311 to the third claw 313. This cycle is repeated in sequence, and all the cigarette packs in the cigarette storage can be conveyed to the cigarette pack conveyor belt.

[0039] In some embodiments, two conveying rails 6 are also provided on the base 52. The two conveying rails 6 are arranged in parallel and at intervals. A conveying channel for cigarette packs to pass through is formed between the two conveying rails 6. When the cigarette pack secondary adding device is installed on the cigarette pack conveyor belt, the conveying part of the cigarette pack conveyor belt for conveying cigarette packs is located in the conveying channel. In this embodiment, the conveying rails 6 are used to limit the cigarette packs that fall on the cigarette pack conveyor belt to prevent the cigarette packs from tipping over during the falling process, so that the cigarette packs can be smoothly conveyed along the cigarette pack conveyor belt. The conveying rails 6 can be fixed to the bracket of the cigarette pack conveyor belt by standard screws. The number of the turning rails can be two, and the straight section 22 of the turning rail can be installed on one of the two conveying rails 6.

[0040] In some embodiments, the cigarette pack secondary adding device further comprises an upper baffle 15 and a lower baffle 51. The upper baffle 15 is arranged at the exit of the cigarette storage support 1. The upper baffle 15 is provided with a notch for the claws of the multi-claw wheel 3 to pass through when rotating. The lower baffle 51 is parallel to the straight section 22 and arranged at intervals. A space for the cigarette pack to pass through is formed between the lower baffle 51 and the straight section 22. The lower baffle 51 is provided with a notch for the claws of the multi-claw wheel 3 to pass through when rotating. The upper baffle 15 and the lower baffle 51 can both be rectangular. The multi-claw wheel 3 can rotate between the upper baffle 15 and the lower baffle 51. When the claws pass through the notch of the upper baffle 15, the cigarette pack at the upper baffle 15 can be grabbed. The lower baffle 51 can make the cigarette pack escape from the claws and fall on the cigarette pack conveyor belt. The upper baffle 15 can be installed on the bending support 14. Specifically, threaded holes are provided on both sides of the upper baffle 15, and the bottom is fixedly mounted on the bending support 14 by standard screws. The upper baffle 15 is also fixedly connected with support members on both sides, the left side is a first support member 13, and the right side is a second support member 16. The first support member 13 and the second support member 16 can include two support bars respectively. The four "L"-shaped guide rails can include a first long "L"-shaped guide rail 10, a second long "L"-shaped guide rail 11, a third long "L"-shaped guide rail 17 and a short "L"-shaped guide rail 12. One end of the first long "L"-shaped guide rail 10 can be fixed to one of the two bent brackets 14 with a standard screw, one end of the third long "L"-shaped guide rail 17 can be fixed to the other of the two bent brackets 14 with a standard screw, one end of the second long "L"-shaped guide rail 11 can be fixed to the first support member 13 with a standard screw, and one end of the short "L"-shaped guide rail 12 can be fixed to the second support member 16 with a standard screw. The lower baffle 51 can be installed on another conveying guide rail 6.

[0041] The working process of the secondary adding device for cigarette packs provided in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: the cigarette packs are placed on the cigarette storage bracket 1 in sequence according to the correct placement position, the device starts to operate, and the cigarette packs fall from the cigarette storage bracket 1 one pack at a time onto the multi-claw wheel 3. When the first cigarette pack is caught by the first claw 311 and the second claw 312, it enters the first supporting part 321 in front of the claw. The first cigarette pack moves along the turning guide rail as the multi-claw wheel 3 rotates, and the second cigarette pack enters the second supporting part 322 above the first claw 311 as the first cigarette pack moves. When the first pack of cigarettes falls into the cigarette pack conveying channel, the second cigarette pack is driven by the third claw 313 on the second supporting part 322 to move along the turning guide rail. This cycle is repeated in sequence, and the cigarette packs in the cigarette storage can be quickly changed from lying flat on the front to standing upright on the side and placed on the cigarette pack conveyor belt.
