[0025] Various exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement, numerical expressions, and values ​​of the components and steps set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention.

[0026] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the invention or its application or use.

[0027] Techniques, methods, and equipment known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and equipment should be considered part of the specification.

[0028] 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.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a cigarette pack discharging device, including: a base plate 1, a detection component, a transmission component 2, and a sorting component 3. The detection component is used to detect the cigarette packs 4.

[0030] It should be noted that the detection component of this utility model adopts the detection device of the prior art, and there is no limitation on it here.

[0031] The transmission component 2 includes a mounting base 21, a support platform 22, a push plate 23, and a first drive unit. The mounting base 21 is mounted on the base plate 1, and the support platform 22 is located on the mounting base 21. The top of the mounting base 21 is used to place the cigarette pack 4. The first drive unit is connected to the push plate 23, which is located above the support platform 22 and on one side of the cigarette pack 4.

[0032] Specifically, a limiting plate is provided on the top of the support platform 22, and the cigarette pack 4 is placed between the support platform 22 and the limiting plate, thereby avoiding the problem of the cigarette pack 4 tilting or collapsing.

[0033] The classification component 3 includes a support bracket 31, a controller, and a second drive unit 35. The support bracket 31 is provided with a conveying port 311 and is connected to the support platform 22. The conveying port 311 corresponds to the cigarette pack 4. The support bracket 31 has a qualified area 33 and an unqualified area 34. The controller is electrically connected to the detection component and the first drive unit and is used to control the movement direction of the first drive unit.

[0034] Specifically, the left side of the support bracket 31 is the non-conforming area 34, and the right side of the support bracket 31 is the conforming area 33. When the detection component detects that the cigarette pack 4 is a non-conforming cigarette pack 4, the controller controls the second drive unit 35 to move, so that the second drive unit 35 transports the non-conforming cigarette pack 4 to the non-conforming area 34; when the detection component detects that the cigarette pack 4 is a conforming cigarette pack 4, the controller controls the second drive unit 35 to move, so that the second drive unit 35 transports the conforming cigarette pack 4 to the conforming area 33.

[0035] This invention features a mounting base 21 mounted on a base plate 1, a support platform 22 located on the mounting base 21, a first drive unit connected to a push plate 23 positioned above the support platform 22 and on one side of the cigarette pack 4; and a conveying port 311 provided on a support bracket 31, connected to the support platform 22, with the conveying port 311 corresponding to the cigarette pack 4. A controller is electrically connected to the detection component and the first drive unit. During operation, the detection component inspects the appearance of the cigarette pack 4 and transmits the results to the controller. Then, the first drive unit drives the push plate 23 to move, pushing the inspected cigarette pack 4 and conveying it through the conveying port 311 to the support bracket 31. At this time, the controller controls the second drive unit 35 to move, conveying the inspected cigarette pack 4 to either the qualified area 33 or the unqualified area 34, thereby eliminating unqualified cigarette packs 4 and allowing qualified cigarette packs 4 to proceed to the next process. This avoids unqualified cigarette packs 4 entering the market and causing quality risks, thus improving work efficiency.

[0036] In one embodiment of the tobacco pack discharging device of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first drive unit includes a first drive motor 24, a synchronous belt 25, a rotating shaft, and two connecting seats 26. The two connecting seats 26 are disposed on one side of the support platform 22 and located at both ends of the support platform 22. The two ends of the rotating shaft are respectively rotatably disposed on the connecting seats 26. The two ends of the synchronous belt 25 are sleeved on the rotating shaft. The first drive motor 24 is connected to one of the rotating shafts. The first end of the push plate 23 is fixed on the synchronous belt 25, and the second end of the push plate 23 extends to the support platform 22.

[0037] Specifically, when the controller controls the first drive motor 24 to rotate, the first drive motor 24 drives one of the rotating shafts to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft drives the synchronous belt 25 to rotate, which in turn drives the push plate 23 to move, so that the push plate 23 pushes the tobacco pack 4 and delivers the tobacco pack 4 to the support bracket 31.

[0038] This utility model improves work efficiency by rotatably mounting the two ends of a rotating shaft on a connecting seat 26, and sleeves the two ends of a timing belt 25 on the rotating shaft. A first drive motor 24 is connected to one of the rotating shafts, and the first drive motor 24 drives the rotating shaft and timing belt 25 to move, so that the push plate 23 mounted on the timing belt 25 can quickly push the cigarette pack 4 onto the support bracket 31. It also has a simple structure and is easy to use.

[0039] Furthermore, a sensor is installed on the connecting seat 26 near the support bracket 31. The sensor is electrically connected to the controller. When the cigarette pack 4 is delivered to the support bracket 31, the sensor detects that there is no cigarette pack 4 on the synchronous belt 25 and transmits a signal to the controller. The controller then controls the first drive motor 24 to rotate so that the push plate 23 moves to the initial position, thereby enabling the push plate 23 to continuously push the cigarette pack 4.

[0040] In one embodiment of the tobacco pack discharging device of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the push plate 23 includes a fixed plate 231, a connecting plate 232 and a push block 233. The fixed plate 231 is disposed on the timing belt 25, the push block 233 is located above the support platform 22, and the two ends of the connecting plate 232 are connected to the fixed plate 231 and the push block 233 respectively.

[0041] This invention sets a fixed plate 231 on a synchronous belt 25 and positions a pusher block 233 above a support platform 22. The two ends of a connecting plate 232 are connected to the fixed plate 231 and the pusher block 233 respectively. As the fixed plate 231 moves with the synchronous belt 25, the synchronous belt 25 moves the connecting plate 232 and the pusher block 233, thus ensuring the stability of the pusher plate 23's movement.

[0042] In one embodiment of the cigarette pack discharging device of this utility model, the transmission component 2 further includes two baffles, which are respectively disposed at the ends of the two connecting seats 26, and the push plate 23 is located between the two baffles.

[0043] This invention provides a limit to the movement of the push plate 23 by setting two baffles at the ends of the two connecting seats 26 and placing the push plate 23 between the two baffles, thereby preventing the push plate 23 from colliding with other devices and causing damage.

[0044] In one embodiment of the tobacco pack discharging device of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first drive unit also includes a reducer 27, which is connected to the output shaft of the first drive motor 24. This configuration can reduce the speed, increase the torque, optimize the smoothness of power output, and improve system efficiency.

[0045] In one embodiment of the cigarette pack discharging device of this utility model, in order to improve the stability of the installation of the mounting base 21, a plurality of mounting holes 211 are provided on both sides of the mounting base 21, and a plurality of connecting holes are provided on the base plate 1 accordingly. By setting fastening bolts in the mounting holes 211 and connecting holes, the mounting base 21 is fixed on the base plate 1.

[0046] In one embodiment of the tobacco pack discharging device of this utility model, such as Figure 3As shown, the sorting component 3 also includes two levers 36, an opening 32, two movable plates 37, and a connecting rod 38. The opening 32 is disposed on the support bracket 31 and corresponds to the conveying port 311. The two movable plates 37 are respectively movably disposed at both ends of the opening 32. The first end of the movable plate 37 is connected to the lever 36. The distance between the two levers 36 is greater than the width of the cigarette pack 4. The first end of the connecting rod 38 is connected to the movable plate, and the second drive unit 35 is connected to the second end of the connecting rod 38.

[0047] Furthermore, the toggle block 36 is made of iron, and the second drive unit 35 also includes an electromagnet. The electromagnet is located at the bottom of the support bracket 31 and on both sides of the opening 32. The magnetic poles of the electromagnet are opposite to those of the toggle block 36.

[0048] Specifically, when the movable plate 37 moves to the end of the opening 32, the top of the toggle block 36 of the movable plate 37 that is in contact with the end of the opening 32 remains horizontal with the opening 32. At this time, the top of the toggle block 36 of the movable plate 37 that is not in contact with the end of the opening 32 is located above the opening 32.

[0049] When the cigarette pack 4 is conveyed onto the support bracket 31, it moves under the action of the push plate 23 to the space between the two levers 36 and above the opening 32. When the detection component detects that the cigarette pack 4 is a defective cigarette pack 4, the controller controls the second drive unit 35 to move. The movement of the second drive unit 35 drives the connecting rod 38 to move to the left. The movement of the connecting rod 38 simultaneously drives the two moving plates 37 to move to the left. The movement of the two moving plates 37 drives the two levers 36 to move to the left, thereby causing the levers 36 to move the defective cigarette pack 4 to the left. As the levers 36 move to the end of the opening 32, the left lever 36 gradually approaches the electromagnet. The lever 36 is attracted and gradually moves downward until the top of the lever 36 is level with the opening 32, thereby causing the right lever 36 to push the cigarette pack 4 to the defective area 34.

[0050] When the detection component detects that the cigarette pack 4 is a qualified cigarette pack 4, the controller controls the second drive unit 35 to move. The movement of the second drive unit 35 drives the connecting rod 38 to move to the right. The movement of the connecting rod 38 simultaneously drives the two moving plates 37 to move to the right. The movement of the two moving plates 37 drives the two toggle blocks 36 to move to the right, thereby causing the toggle blocks 36 to move the qualified cigarette pack 4 to the right. As the toggle blocks 36 move to the end of the opening 32, the right toggle block 36 gradually approaches the electromagnet. The toggle block 36 is attracted and gradually moves downward until the top of the right toggle block 36 is level with the opening 32, thereby causing the left toggle block 36 to push the cigarette pack 4 to the qualified area 34.

[0051] Furthermore, the up-and-down movement of the lever 36 can be achieved by moving the movable plate 37 up and down on the support bracket 31; for example, the connecting rod 38 is an electric telescopic rod or a telescopic rod, and the up-and-down movement of the movable plate 37 is achieved by controlling the up-and-down movement of the connecting rod 38. When the connecting rod 38 is an electric telescopic rod, the connecting rod 38 is electrically connected to the controller. When the movable plate 37 moves to the end of the opening 32, the controller controls the corresponding connecting rod 38 to retract, causing the movable plate 37 connected to it to move downward, thereby causing the lever 36 to retract, and thus allowing the cigarette pack 4 to be pushed to the qualified area 33 or the unqualified area 34.

[0052] Alternatively, the lever 36 can be connected to the movable plate 37 by a spring. That is, the two ends of the spring are connected to the lever 36 and the movable plate 37 respectively. When magnetic attraction is received, the spring is compressed to realize the downward movement of the lever 36. The specific structure is not limited here.

[0053] In one embodiment of the tobacco pack discharging device of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the second drive unit 35 includes a second drive motor 351, a fixed bracket 352, a rotating rod 353, and a moving block 354. The fixed bracket 352 is fixed on the base plate 1. The two ends of the rotating rod 353 are rotatably connected to the two ends of the fixed bracket 352. The second drive motor 351 is connected to the rotating rod 353. The moving block 354 is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 38. The outer wall of the moving block 354 is connected to the connecting rod 38.

[0054] Specifically, by controlling the forward or reverse rotation of the second drive motor 351, the rotating rod 353 can be driven to rotate forward or reverse, causing the moving block 354 to move to the left or right. Alternatively, by controlling the forward or reverse rotation of the second drive motor 351, the rotating rod 353 can be driven to rotate forward or reverse, causing the moving block 354 to move to the right or left, thus limiting the movement.

[0055] This utility model rotatably connects the two ends of the rotating rod 353 to the two ends of the fixed bracket 352, connects the second drive motor 351 to the rotating rod 353, and connects the moving block 354 to the connecting rod 38 by thread. The outer wall of the moving block 354 is connected to the connecting rod 38. When the first drive motor 24 rotates, it can drive the connecting rod 38 to rotate, thereby enabling the moving block 354 to move on the rotating rod 353, which in turn drives the connecting rod 38 to move, so as to classify the cigarette packs 4 as qualified and unqualified, thus further improving work efficiency.

[0056] Although specific embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail by way of examples, those skilled in the art should understand that the above examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present 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 present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims.
