One side of the support plate 12 is rotatably connected to one end of the slide rail 13. The other side of the slide rail 13 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 14. A mounting base 15 is slidably connected to the slide rail 13. Push motors 16 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the inner wall of the mounting base 15. Push wheels 17 are fixedly connected to the output ends of the two push motors 16. One side of the two push wheels 17 is slidably connected to both sides of the slide rail 13. A push rod 18 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting base 15. The bottom of the inner wall of the sealing chamber 1 is... Each of the two lower mounting brackets 19 is fixedly connected to a lower mounting bracket 19. One end of the bottom of each of the two lower mounting brackets 19 and one end of the bottom of each of the two upper mounting brackets 2 are fixedly connected to a connecting plate 20. The connecting plates 20 connected to the bottom of the two lower mounting brackets 19 are connected to a connecting column. The connecting plates 20 connected to the bottom of the upper mounting bracket 2 are connected to another connecting column. Tape sealers 21 are fixedly installed in the middle of each of the two connecting columns. Both tape sealers 21 are implemented using existing technology and can continuously and automatically complete the sealing operation of the cigarette box. The speed is fast and the efficiency is high.

[0019] Side boxes 22 are fixedly installed at one end of both sides of the inner wall of the sealing chamber 1. Push rods 23 are inserted and connected to one side of each side box 22. Push plates 24 are fixedly connected to one end of each push rod 23. Gear grooves are formed on one side of each push rod 23, and adjusting gears 25 are meshed with one side of each gear groove. A first transmission rod 26 is fixedly connected to the bottom of one of the adjusting gears 25. A drive gear 27 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first transmission rod 26. The bottom of the drive gear 27 is fixedly connected to the output end of the adjusting motor 28. One side of the driven gear 30 is connected to the driven gear 30 via a transmission chain 29.

The top of the second reversing gear 33 is fixedly connected to the bottom of another adjusting gear 25 via a second transmission rod 34. The position of the tobacco box is adjusted by the push plate 24, so that the device can seal tobacco boxes of different sizes and models, improving the flexibility of the device.

[0020] It also includes a conveying mechanism for feeding material into the sealing chamber 1. The conveying mechanism includes a conveyor belt 35, with support frames 36 fixedly connected to both sides of the conveyor belt 35. Several smoke loading platforms 37 are fixedly connected to one side of each of the two support frames 36. Several evenly distributed support legs 38 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the smoke loading platforms 37 and the bottom of the two support frames 36. One end of the conveyor belt 35 passes through the feed inlet and communicates with the interior of the sealing chamber 1. The surface of the conveyor belt 35 is evenly coated with equally spaced marking lines 39. By setting up the conveyor belt 35 and multiple smoke loading platforms 37, the overall processing speed is improved. By setting up the marking lines 39, the processing process is made uniform and stable.

[0021] A receiving plate 40 is fixedly connected to one side of the sealing chamber 1. A roller groove is opened on one side of the receiving plate 40. Several evenly distributed directional rollers 41 are rotatably installed on the inner wall of the roller groove. A guide plate 42 is fixedly connected to one side of the receiving plate 40. A receiving groove is opened at the end of the guide plate 42 with an inclined arrangement and a higher top surface. Several evenly distributed feeding rollers 43 are rotatably installed on the inner wall of the receiving groove. The sealed cigarette boxes are transferred and temporarily stored to facilitate subsequent operations.

[0022] Several evenly distributed rollers 44 are arranged at intervals on the top of the two lower mounting frames 19. One end of each roller 44 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sealing chamber 1, which reduces the friction between the sealing box and the lower mounting frame 19, making it easier and smoother for the push rod 18 to push the sealing box.

[0023] In use, the operator pushes the cigarette box to be sealed on the cigarette loading platform 37 and places it on the conveyor belt 35, ensuring that the side of the cigarette box near the sealing chamber 1 is aligned with the marking line 39. The conveyor belt 35 moves the cigarette box. When the cigarette box reaches the position of the push plate 24, the adjusting motor 28 starts. Since one of the adjusting gears 25 is directly connected to the driving gear 27 through the first transmission rod 26, its rotation direction is the same as that of the driving gear 27. The other adjusting gear 25 is connected to the first reversing gear 32 and the second reversing gear 33 through the transmission rod 26. The two adjusting gears 25 move in the opposite direction to the drive gear 27. When the adjusting motor 28 starts, the two adjusting gears 25 can synchronously drive the push plates 24 on both sides to move closer or further away, adjusting the position of the cigarette box so that the cigarette box is located at the center of the conveyor belt 35, ensuring that the sealing position of the center of the cigarette box is aligned with the position of the tape sealer 21. When the cigarette box moves to the end of the conveyor belt 35, the second motor 14 drives the slide rail 13 to rotate, driving the push rod 18 to rotate and press down. Then the push motor 16 starts, driving the mounting base 15 to drive the push rod 18 to press the cigarette box. As the cigarette box moves forward, the first motor 10 drives the connecting shaft 9 to rotate, which in turn rotates the pressure rod 11. This presses down on one end of the top panel of the cigarette box, bending it to facilitate sealing. Then, the pressure plate 5 pushes against the other end of the top panel to complete the folding and sealing. The cigarette box continues to move, and the bent parts of the guide plates 8 on both sides first contact the top panels of the cigarette box. Then, the panels bend and fold along the direction guided by the guide plates 8, completing the sealing of the top of the cigarette box. The push rod 18 continues to push the cigarette box forward, passing through two tape sealers 21. Two tape sealers 21 are used to seal the top and bottom of the cigarette box. Then, the push rod 18 sends the sealed cigarette box out of the sealing chamber 1 through the discharge port. After that, the second motor 14 drives the slide rail 13 to rotate, which drives the push rod 18 to lift up. Then, the push motor 16 drives the mounting base 15 and the push rod 18 back to the starting position, ready to push the next cigarette box. The cigarette box that is pushed out is adjusted in the direction of movement by the adjusting roller 41 and sent into the guide plate 42. The feeding roller 43 on the guide plate 42 sends the cigarette box to the lower part of the top surface of the inclined plate for temporary storage.

[0024] In this invention, "fixed connection" means that two interconnected parts are fixed together, generally by means of welding, screws or adhesive; "rotational connection" means that two parts are connected together and can move relative to each other.

[0025] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "left," and "right," etc., indicating orientation or positional relationships based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, are only for the convenience of describing the invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or a specific orientational structure and operation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the invention. Furthermore, "first" and "second" are only for descriptive purposes and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, unless otherwise stated, "multiple" means two or more.

[0026] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0027] The foregoing has provided a detailed description of one embodiment of the present invention, but this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. All equivalent variations and modifications made within the scope of the claims of this invention should still fall within the patent coverage of this invention.
