[0039] The filter rod arrangement device of the present invention is an improvement on the existing filter rod boxing machine, which can ensure that the filter rods are arranged in an orderly manner in each layer in the silo, can be directly boxed and directly enter the next process, and does not require manual secondary arrangement of the boxed products, which saves time and labor and improves production efficiency. The specific improved embodiment is as follows.

[0040] Refer to the attached Figure 1 As shown, the filter rod arranging device of the filter rod cartoning machine of this embodiment includes a silo frame II and a filter rod conveying mechanism I fixed on the silo frame II, a drop arranging mechanism III and a lateral aligning mechanism IV.

[0041] In this embodiment, the silo frame II comprises a mounting back plate II-1, a bottom plate II-10 and two side plates II-9. The mounting back plate II-1 is used to mount and fix the filter rod conveying mechanism I and the blanking arrangement mechanism III.

[0042] Specifically, the filter rod conveying mechanism I is arranged on the upper part of the mounting back plate II-1, communicated with the feed port of the silo, and is used for conveying the filter rod entering from the feed port to the interior of the silo.

[0043] Refer to the attached Figure 2 As shown, the filter rod conveying mechanism I includes two upper and lower belt conveying mechanisms I-3 and a belt conveying extension mechanism I-7. The two upper and lower belt conveying mechanisms I-3 are used to convey the filter rods conveyed from the feed inlet into the silo. The belt conveying extension mechanism I-7 is arranged inside the silo and is an extension of the filter rod conveyor belt. It is used to convey the filter rods to the side of the silo away from the feed inlet to achieve uniform distribution of the filter rods in the silo. As shown in the attached figure, the filter rods are conveyed to the side of the silo away from the feed inlet to achieve uniform distribution of the filter rods in the silo. Figure 2 As shown, the two upper and lower belt conveying mechanisms Ⅰ-3 and a belt conveying extension mechanism Ⅰ-7 are driven by a driving motor Ⅰ-6, and the driving motor Ⅰ-6 transmits power to the driving shaft assembly Ⅰ-1 through the chain Ⅰ-5 and the sprocket Ⅰ-4. The driving motor Ⅰ-6 is fixed on the silo mounting back plate Ⅱ-1, and the driving shaft assembly Ⅰ-1 and the driven tensioning assembly Ⅰ-2 are connected by a belt. The tensioning wheel is adjusted to tighten the belt to realize the conveying of the filter rod.

[0044] Refer to the attached Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, a filter rod guiding mechanism is also provided at the lower part of the filter rod conveying mechanism I. The filter rod guiding mechanism includes a belt guide plate II-8 and a swing guide plate II-7. The belt guide plates II-8 are arranged at the ends of the belt conveying mechanism I-3 and the belt conveying extension mechanism I-7, and are arranged opposite to each other to form a filter rod falling channel. The swing guide plate II-7 is fixed by the guide mounting plate II-6, and adopts a diamond swing plate structure. It is arranged in the middle of the filter rod falling channel to realize a primary flow diversion of the filter rod, and because the swing guide plate II-7 can swing left and right on the guide mounting plate II-6, it can prevent the filter rod from being damaged by the squeezing force during the falling process.

[0045] The filter rod guide mechanism also includes a plurality of diverter blocks II-5, which are evenly dispersed and fixed in the middle of the silo to realize secondary diversion of the filter rod. In this embodiment, the diverter block II-5 adopts an inverted triangular iron structure, that is, the bottom of the diverter block II-5 has an avoidance position, which can prevent the filter rod from being squeezed and damaged during the sorting process.

[0046] Refer to the attached Figure 4 As shown, the material dropping and sorting mechanism III is arranged in the middle of the mounting back plate II-1, and is used to evenly drop the filter rods conveyed by the filter rod conveying mechanism I into the lower part of the silo, which is located on the bottom plate II-10.

[0047] Specifically, the blanking and sorting mechanism III includes a motor III-8, a motor connecting plate III-7, a gear fixing plate III-5, a gear III-4 and a sorting rod III-6. The sorting rod III-6 is fixed on the gear III-4, the gear III-4 is fixed on the gear fixing plate III-5, and the gear fixing plate III-5 is connected to the motor III-8 through the motor connecting plate III-7. The rotation of the motor III-8 drives the gear fixing plate III-5 to reciprocate horizontally, thereby driving the gear III-4 and the sorting rod III-6 to reciprocate horizontally.

[0048] The blanking and sorting mechanism III also includes a rack III-3 and a rack fixing plate III-2, wherein the rack III-3 is fixed on the rack fixing plate III-2, and the rack fixing plate III-2 is fixed on the mounting plate III-1, and the teeth on the rack III-3 are meshed with the teeth on the gear III-4. The gear III-4 rotates under the action of the rack III-3 while reciprocating horizontally, so that the sorting rod III-6 can swing left and right and rotate at the same time, thereby avoiding the risk of squeezing the filter rod and causing damage during the left and right swinging of the sorting rod III-6.

[0049] As a further improvement, in this embodiment, the sorting rod III-6 is arranged in a double-layer spacing manner, which can better achieve uniform drop of the filter rods and prevent the occurrence of rod squeezing and rod disorder.

[0050] Refer to the attached Figure 5As shown, the lateral aligning mechanism IV is arranged at the lower part of the mounting back plate II-1, and is located in the avoidance hole of the side plate II-9, and can move axially along the avoidance hole, and is used for lateral aligning of the fallen filter rods to meet the arrangement requirements of the filter rod boxing.

[0051] Specifically, the lateral alignment mechanism IV includes a horizontal motion cylinder IV-1, a motor IV-9, a small synchronous pulley IV-10, a synchronous belt IV-11, a large synchronous pulley IV-12, a rotating shaft IV-13, a large pulley IV-16, a roller connecting plate IV-17, a small pulley IV-18, a belt IV-15 and a roller IV-19.

[0052] The small synchronous pulley IV-10 is installed on the output shaft of the motor IV-9, the large synchronous pulley IV-12 is installed on the rotating shaft IV-13, the synchronous belt IV-11 connects the small synchronous pulley IV-10 and the large synchronous pulley IV-12, the large pulley IV-16 is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft IV-13, and a roller connecting plate IV-17 is respectively arranged on both sides of the large pulley IV-16. The lower ends of the two roller connecting plates IV-17 can be movably installed on the rotating shaft IV-13, and a plurality of small pulleys IV-18 and a plurality of rollers are evenly fixed between the two roller connecting plates IV-17. IV-19, the belt IV-15 connects the large pulley IV-16 and the small pulley IV-18, and several rollers IV-19 are evenly arranged near one side of the inside of the silo. The position of the small pulley IV-18 can be adjusted to tighten the belt IV-15, so that the belt IV-15 drives the roller IV-19 to rotate. Then the motor IV-9 drives the rotating shaft IV-13 to rotate through the synchronous belt IV-11, and the rotating shaft IV-13 further drives the large pulley IV-16 to rotate. The large pulley IV-16 drives the belt IV-15 to move, and then drives the roller IV-19 to rotate. The rotation of the roller IV-19 can avoid squeezing the filter rod during side beating.

[0053] The extending rod IV-2 of the horizontal motion cylinder IV-1 is connected to the upper part of the roller connecting plate IV-17. Then, the roller connecting plate IV-17 together with the roller IV-19 thereon swings toward the inside of the silo under the action of the horizontal motion cylinder IV-1. The reciprocating swing achieves the purpose of aligning the filter rods laterally.

[0054] As a further improvement, the lateral aligning mechanism IV also includes an up-and-down adjustment mechanism. The up-and-down adjustment mechanism includes a vertical motion cylinder IV-4 and a connecting plate IV-14 arranged below the horizontal motion cylinder IV-1. The lower part of the vertical motion cylinder IV-4 is fixed on the bottom mounting plate IV-6, and the extension rod IV-5 of the vertical motion cylinder IV-4 is connected to the bottom IV-3 of the horizontal motion cylinder IV-1. The bottom mounting plate IV-6 is provided with a through hole for the connecting plate IV-14 to pass through. The upper end of the connecting plate IV-14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal motion cylinder IV-1, and the lower end of the connecting plate IV-14 is connected to the rotating shaft IV-13 through a bearing. Then, the vertical motion cylinder IV-4 can drive the horizontal motion cylinder IV-1 and the roller connecting plate IV-14 and roller IV-19 connected thereto to move up and down as a whole to adapt to the changes in the number of filter rod layers pushed out at one time by different manufacturers.

[0055] In this embodiment, two pairs of large pulleys IV-16, two pairs of roller connecting plates IV-17, and two pairs of connecting plates IV-14 are installed on the rotating shaft IV-13, and each pair of roller connecting plates IV-17 respectively fixes 7 small pulleys IV-18 and 12 rollers IV-19. Of course, one row of rollers or multiple rows of rollers can be set according to the length of filter rods from different manufacturers.

[0056] The up-and-down adjustment mechanism also includes a piston mechanism. The piston mechanism includes a piston cylinder IV-8 and a piston rod IV-7 disposed inside the piston cylinder. The bottom end of the piston cylinder IV-8 is fixed to the bottom mounting plate IV-6. The upper end of the piston rod IV-7 is connected to the bottom of the horizontal motion cylinder IV-1. The piston rod IV-7 performs synchronous telescopic movement with the extension rod IV-5 of the vertical motion cylinder IV-4. The piston mechanism assists the vertical motion cylinder in up-and-down adjustment, thereby improving the safety of the lateral alignment mechanism.

[0057] Of course, the lateral alignment mechanism of the present application can also adopt the following structure: the lateral alignment mechanism includes a moving plate and a power mechanism that drives the moving plate to move horizontally or swing. The power mechanism adopts a horizontal motion cylinder or other electric mechanism. The extension rod of the horizontal motion cylinder is vertically connected to the moving plate, and drives the moving plate to move horizontally or swing along the axial direction of the avoidance hole.

[0058] As a further optimization, the movable plate is configured with a wavy arc structure on one side facing the interior of the silo to provide an escape position for the filter rod, thereby preventing the filter rod from being squeezed when being aligned sideways and thus avoiding damage to the filter rod.

[0059] In order to better improve the filter rod lateral alignment effect, in this embodiment, the lower part of the two side plates II-9 is provided with avoidance holes. The avoidance holes are both equipped with the lateral alignment mechanism. The two lateral alignment mechanisms are arranged opposite to each other, and can simultaneously achieve the alignment of the filter rods on the bottom plate II-10, with a more significant effect.

[0060] In addition, the silo rack II also includes an adjustment back plate II-2. The adjustment back plate II-2 is movably fixed to the inner side of the mounting back plate II-1 through the adjustment component II-3. In this way, according to the different specifications of filter rods produced by the tobacco factory, the position of the adjustment back plate II-2 can be adjusted to achieve the use of filter rods of different lengths, and the versatility of the equipment is further improved.

[0061] The silo filter rod arranging device of the present invention consists of a filter rod conveying mechanism, a silo frame, a material dropping and arranging mechanism and a lateral aligning mechanism, so that the filter rods are conveyed to the upper part of the silo by the filter rod conveying mechanism, and the filter rods entering the upper part of the silo are evenly dropped to the lower part of the silo by the material dropping and arranging mechanism, and then the filter rods at the bottom of the silo are laterally aligned by the lateral aligning mechanism, so that each layer of the filter rods is arranged according to its own rules, and after meeting the boxing requirements, they are directly boxed, and the whole process will not cause abnormalities such as rod squeezing and disordered rods, and can also avoid filter rod damage, greatly improving the effects of filter rod conveying, uniform dropping and lateral aligning, and improving the filter rod boxing quality and efficiency.
