Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of cigarette production equipment, and in particular to a cross conveyor type cigarette package sorting and arranging device. Background Art

[0002] The packaging specifications of cigarette products are usually divided into a strip box packaging unit containing ten cigarette packs of cigarette products, divided into two layers, five packs in each layer, and the packaging patterns of the cigarette packs are consistent. In order to meet the needs of products and users and improve the packaging beautification effect, it is necessary to design the packaging patterns of five cigarette packs in a series, and the packaging patterns of the five cigarette packs are different. Then, the five cigarette packs of cigarette products with different patterns are arranged in sequence to form a complete continuous pattern. The existing cigarette production and packaging process is generally: the cigarettes are packaged from the unloading machine to the hard box packaging machine, and then enter the box outer transparent paper packaging machine through the cigarette pack conveying channel for transparent packaging, then enter the hard strip packaging machine for packaging, and then enter the strip outer transparent paper packaging machine for packaging, etc. Since the pattern of each cigarette pack is the same, the existing production equipment cannot meet the requirements of producing multiple cigarette packs with different patterns at the same time and arranging the cigarette packs with different patterns in sequence. In response to the above problems, the applicant has developed a cigarette pack sorting and arranging system and applied for a national patent, with the patent number: CN208790059U. Although the cigarette pack sorting and arranging system can achieve sorting and arranging, it needs to set up multiple feeding transmission lines at the feeding end and separate the cigarette packs of the same type in advance, which results in a large footprint.

[0065] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of this application, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0066] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0067] In the present application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may include that the first and second features are in direct contact, or may include that the first and second features are not in direct contact but are in contact through another feature between them.

[0068] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a cross-conveyor type cigarette package sorting and arranging device includes a feeding transmission line 1, a sorting and arranging unit 2, a defective product receiving device 3, a receiving unit 4 and a shipping transmission line 5. The feeding transmission line 1 is a belt conveyor, one end of which is connected to one end of the sorting and arranging unit 2. The cigarette packages 6 on the feeding transmission line 1 can be delivered to the sorting and arranging unit 2.

[0069] A sensor is fixedly installed above the feeding transmission line 1 to distinguish the type of cigarette pack pattern being detected. The sensor can be fixed on one side of the feeding transmission line 1 using a C-shaped bracket, and the sensor can be fixed on the top of the C-shaped bracket. The sensor should be located directly above the feeding transmission line 1 so as to be able to align with the cigarette pack on the feeding transmission line 1. The sensor is preferably a visual recognition sensor. The visual recognition sensor will take a picture of the cigarette pack passing below it and identify it through the matching recognition software to distinguish which pattern the cigarette pack belongs to, and control the action of the sorting and arranging unit 2 according to different patterns.

[0070] A defective product receiving device 3 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the other end of the sorting and arranging unit 2. The defective product receiving device 3 is used to receive cigarette packages whose pattern types cannot be distinguished or have defects after detection by the sensor. The defective product receiving device 3 is a box, which is placed at the bottom of the other end of the sorting and arranging unit 2. When the cigarette package moves along the other end of the sorting and arranging unit 2 to the end, it automatically falls into the defective product receiving device 3. Such a structure is relatively simple, directly using the existing conveying device, without the need to add an additional receiving power mechanism, reducing costs and having a compact structure.

[0071] like Figure 3 As shown, the sorting and arranging unit 2 includes a longitudinal conveying device 20 and a transverse conveying device 21. A plurality of transverse conveying devices 21 are arranged in parallel in the longitudinal conveying device 20. The transverse conveying device 21 can intercept the cigarette pack 6 on the longitudinal conveying device 20 and change its moving direction. This is the core key point of the sorting and arranging unit 2. The longitudinal conveying device 20 inside can convey the cigarette pack longitudinally, that is, convey it along the direction of the feeding transmission line 1, while the transverse conveying device 21 is perpendicular to the longitudinal conveying device 20 and can change the direction of the cigarette pack as needed. For example, the cigarette pack has 5 patterns, so there are 5 corresponding transverse conveying devices 21. When the sensor detects that the current cigarette pack is the first pattern, the control system controls the first transverse conveying device 21 to intercept the cigarette pack passing above it, and move the cigarette pack horizontally to send the cigarette pack to the receiving unit 4. In this way, the sorting function can be achieved. With such a structure, the number of feeding transmission lines 1 is reduced, and only one feeding transmission line 1 is required. In addition, the entire device has a compact structure and a greatly reduced volume.

[0072] A receiving unit 4 is fixedly provided at the end of the transverse conveying device 21, which is used to convey or store the cigarette packs 6 sent by the transverse conveying device 21. The receiving unit 4 can be an arrangement conveyor belt in a cigarette pack sorting and arranging system such as CN208790059U, or a cache in a cigarette pack sorting and arranging device with application number CN202010019926.0, and its main function is to enable the cigarette packs to be arranged according to patterns. During operation, the cigarette packs 6 are fed into the sorting and arranging unit 2 from the feeding transmission line 1. When passing under the sensor, the sensor takes a picture of the pattern of the cigarette pack 6 and analyzes and compares it, so as to determine which type the cigarette pack 6 belongs to. In this embodiment, there are a total of 5 types of cigarette pack patterns, so 5 transverse conveying devices 21 are also provided accordingly. After the sensor determines the pattern of the cigarette pack 6, it transmits the signal to the controller, and the controller controls the corresponding transverse conveying device 21 to intercept the cigarette pack 6 and send it out of the longitudinal conveying device 20 horizontally, and finally sends the cigarette pack 6 into the receiving unit 4. The interception method of the transverse conveying device 21 can be a suction cup, a cylinder extension, an electric blocking method, etc. These are common structures in the industry. You can also refer to the blocking device in a cigarette pack sorting and arrangement system in CN208790059U. In short, it can stop the cigarette pack from its original running track. The conveying method of the transverse conveying device 21 can also be various, such as a conveyor belt method, a roller method, a cylinder push, a nozzle blowing, etc., as long as the cigarette pack can be moved horizontally from the longitudinal conveying device 20.

[0073] In addition, a cigarette pack position detection sensor is fixedly arranged on one side of the longitudinal conveying device 20, and the cigarette pack position detection sensor corresponds to the transverse conveying device 21. When the sorting speed of the sorting and arranging unit 2 is not fast enough, the cigarette packs on the longitudinal conveying device 20 will be piled up. In order to accurately locate the position of each pack of cigarettes, a cigarette pack position detection sensor is fixedly arranged on the side of the longitudinal conveying device 20. The cigarette pack position detection sensor should correspond to the transverse conveying device 21 and be located in the opposite direction of the discharging end of the transverse conveying device 21. It should be noted that the cigarette pack position detection sensor here is mainly set to consider the accumulation caused by the insufficient speed of cigarette pack sorting and for more accurate positioning. In the case of slow speed, this cigarette pack position detection sensor can be omitted, and only the closed-loop control system of the longitudinal conveying device 20 is used to achieve positioning. The closed-loop control system here can be controlled by a transmission line driven by a servo system or a closed-loop control circuit composed of a stepping motor and a rotary encoder.

[0074] More specifically, the longitudinal conveying device 20 includes a plurality of longitudinal conveyor belts arranged in parallel, each of which is provided with a spacing, and a transverse conveying device 21 is provided in the spacing so as to be able to be raised and lowered. The transverse conveying device 21 is a comb-shaped structure, on which a conveyor belt is provided, and the upper part of the transverse conveying device 21 can be raised and lowered in the spacing formed by the plurality of longitudinal conveyor belts.

[0075] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the longitudinal conveying device 20 includes a longitudinal active roller 200 and a longitudinal driven roller 201, which are arranged parallel to each other, and a plurality of longitudinal conveyor belts 202 are sleeved on the longitudinal active roller 200 and the longitudinal driven roller 201. The plurality of longitudinal conveyor belts 202 share the longitudinal active roller 200 and the longitudinal driven roller 201, which can achieve the parallelism of the conveyor belts and avoid the tilting of the cigarette packs due to the different rotation speeds of each conveyor belt. The longitudinal active roller 200 and the longitudinal driven roller 201 should be fixedly arranged on a bracket, wherein the longitudinal active roller 200 is also connected to the power device. Since this is a common form of conveyor belt, especially similar to the glaze line conveyor belt in tile production, it can be directly used for reference.

[0076] like Figures 5 to 11 As shown, the transverse conveying device 21 includes a lifting seat 210 and a comb-shaped belt conveying unit 211, and the comb-shaped belt conveying unit 211 can be lifted and lowered on the lifting seat 210. The lifting seat 210 includes a lifting seat bottom plate 2100, on which a conveying unit lifting device 2101, a baffle lifting device 2102 and a guide seat 2103 are fixedly arranged.

[0077] A guide seat 2103 is respectively provided on the left and right sides of the conveying unit lifting device 2101 , and a baffle lifting device 2102 is provided on the rear side of the conveying unit lifting device 2101 .

[0078] The guide seat 2103 includes a guide seat bottom plate 21030 , on which an F-shaped bracket 21031 is fixedly arranged, and a guide hole 21032 is formed between two side plates of the F-shaped bracket 21031 .

[0079] The comb-shaped belt conveyor unit 211 comprises a conveyor unit bottom plate 2110, and the bottom of the conveyor unit bottom plate 2110 is fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor unit lifting device 2101. Two guide rods 21100 are also fixedly arranged at the bottom of the conveyor unit bottom plate 2110, and the two guide rods 21100 match and correspond to each other with the guide holes 21032, and the guide rods 21100 can slide up and down in the guide holes 21032. The guide seat 2103 is generally in an E-shaped structure, which is more convenient to fix. The F-shaped bracket 21031 thereon is an independent F-shaped structure, and a guide hole 21032 is provided on the F-shaped structure, wherein the guide rods 21100 are penetrated, and the guide rods 21100 can be made more stable due to the positioning at both ends.

[0080] A first comb plate 2111 is vertically fixedly arranged on the front side of the conveying unit bottom plate 2110, and a second comb plate 21112 is vertically fixedly arranged on the rear side of the conveying unit bottom plate 2110. Both the first comb plate 2111 and the second comb plate 21112 are comb-shaped structures, and roller holes are correspondingly opened in the two. A roller 2113 is rotatably arranged on the roller hole. A comb-shaped conveyor belt 2114 is wound around the roller 2113, and the comb-shaped conveyor belt 2114 forms a closed loop structure with a rectangular wave shape at the top. The first comb plate 2111 and the second comb plate 21112 have the same shape, both of which are rectangular wave-shaped at the top, and have multiple parallel convex teeth like a comb, and there is a groove between two adjacent convex teeth. The width of this groove should be greater than the width of the longitudinal conveyor belt 202, and the longitudinal conveyor belt 202 can be accommodated therein. Roller holes are provided at the edge of the convex teeth and at the bottom of the entire comb-shaped plate. A roller 2113 is rotatably provided in the roller hole between the two plates. A comb-shaped conveyor belt 2114 is provided on the roller 2113. The entire comb-shaped conveyor belt 2114 is also a comb-shaped structure.

[0081] The first comb plate 2111 is provided with a motor fixing hole 21111, in which a motor unit 2115 is fixedly arranged. The first comb plate 2111 is provided with a motor fixing hole 21111, in which a motor unit 2115 is fixedly arranged. Such a structure can make full use of the space, and the motor unit 2115 is arranged between the two comb plates and the conveyor belt, so that the whole structure is more compact, and the motor is hidden inside, and there will be no interference with each other because a plurality of comb belt conveyor units 211 are arranged in parallel with each other, thereby reducing the footprint of the whole sorting and arranging unit 2.

[0082] The output shaft of the motor unit 2115 is connected to the roller 2113. The output shaft of the motor unit 2115 and the roller 2113 can be connected by gears, or by belts, chains, etc.

[0083] A slide plate 2116 is fixedly disposed at both ends of the outer side of the second comb-shaped plate 21112. The slide plate 2116 is in a Z-shaped structure, and a slide groove is formed between the slide plate 2116 and the second comb-shaped plate 21112. A baffle plate 2117 is slidably disposed in the slide groove, and the bottom of the baffle plate 2117 is fixedly connected to the top of the baffle lifting device 2102.

[0084] The baffle plate 2117 is higher than the second comb plate 21112 .

[0085] The baffle 2117 also has a comb-like structure, which corresponds to the second comb-like plate 21112. The function of the baffle 2117 is to intercept the longitudinal movement of the cigarette pack. During operation, after the sensor determines the type of the current cigarette pack, the controller first controls the corresponding baffle lifting device 2102 in the horizontal conveying device 21 to extend according to the result of the sensor. While the baffle lifting device 2102 extends, it drives the baffle 2117 to move upward along the slide groove and protrude from the upper surface of the longitudinal conveying device 20. At this time, the cigarette pack is stopped by the baffle 2117 and stops moving longitudinally (the longitudinal conveying device can be controlled to stop or slow down at this time. Of course, it can also run at the original speed, which depends on the actual working conditions). Then the controller controls the conveying unit lifting device 2101 to extend upward, and drives the lifting seat bottom plate 2100 and the mechanism fixed thereon to move upward. At this time, the cigarette pack is lifted by the comb-like conveyor belt 2114, and the cigarette pack is separated from the upper surface of the longitudinal conveying device 20. At the same time, the motor unit 2115 drives the roller 2113 to rotate outward to send the cigarette pack to the receiving unit 4. After the cigarette pack interception and feeding are completed, the conveying unit lifting device 2101 and the baffle lifting device 2102 are retracted and returned to their original positions to wait for the next interception and feeding.

[0086] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 6 and Fig.10 As shown, the cross section of the baffle 2117 is an L-shaped structure, and a long slot 21170 is provided on it. A baffle fixing screw 21171 can be slidably penetrated in the long slot 21170, and the baffle fixing screw 21171 is threadedly connected with the second comb plate 21112. The baffle fixing screw 21171 is a round head screw, which is used to prevent the baffle 2117 from deforming due to the longitudinal thrust of the cigarette pack. The cross section of the baffle 2117 is L, and its bottom is the L end. Such a design can enhance the better fixation of the baffle 2117 and the baffle lifting device 2102.

[0087] like Fig.11 As shown, the roller 2113 includes a steering roller 21130, a driving roller 21131 and a tensioning roller 21132. A plurality of steering rollers 21130 are provided, which are respectively arranged at the turning points of the comb-shaped teeth of the first comb-shaped plate 2111 and the second comb-shaped plate 21112. The driving roller 21131 and the tensioning roller 21132 are located at the lower left side of the first comb-shaped plate 2111 and the second comb-shaped plate 21112. A driven synchronous pulley 211310 is fixedly provided at one end of the driving roller 21131, and the driven synchronous pulley 211310 is connected to the driving synchronous pulley 21152 of the motor unit 2115 through a synchronous belt 211311. A first tensioning device 21110 is disposed on the left side of the first comb plate 2111, a second tensioning device 21120 is disposed on the left side of the second comb plate 21112, and both ends of the tensioning roller 21132 are rotatably disposed on the first tensioning device 21110 and the second tensioning device 21120, respectively.

[0088] like Fig.12 As shown, the motor unit 2115 includes a motor fixing plate 21150, and a motor horizontal support plate 211500 is vertically fixed on one side of the motor fixing plate 21150. An aviation socket fixing hole 211502 is provided through the upper part of the motor fixing plate 21150, and an aviation socket 21153 is fixedly provided in the internal thread of the aviation socket fixing hole 211502. A fixing plate fixing threaded hole 211501 and a motor shaft hole 211503 are also provided through the motor fixing plate 21150, and the rotating shaft of the motor 21151 passes through the motor shaft hole 211503 and is fixed to one side of the motor fixing plate 21150 by screws. The bottom of the motor 21151 conflicts with the motor horizontal support plate 211500. The motor 21151 is a brushless DC motor. The motor fixing hole 21111 corresponds to the motor fixing plate 21150, and the inner side of the first comb plate 2111 is vertically fixed with a motor mounting slide plate 21113, which is located at the lower edge of the motor fixing hole 21111, and the upper surface of the motor mounting slide plate 21113 is flush with the lower edge of the motor fixing hole 21111. Such a structure is mainly to consider that the motor unit 2115 is heavier, its motor shaft faces outward, and the whole body is hidden in the inner side of the first comb plate 2111, which is inconvenient to grab and position and install, so the motor mounting slide plate 21113 is set for the sliding of the motor unit 2115. When in use, the motor horizontal support plate 211500 is aligned with the motor fixing hole 21111 and placed on the motor mounting slide plate 21113, and then gently pushed inward to achieve alignment and installation, and such a structure is close to the problem that there is no force point that is not easy to grab due to the reverse installation of the motor.

[0089] Reinforcement guide plates 21112 are fixedly arranged on both sides of the motor mounting slide plate 21113, and one end of the reinforcement guide plate 21112 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the first comb plate 2111. Such a design can increase the load-bearing capacity of the motor mounting slide plate 21113, and can also achieve a guiding effect to prevent the motor mounting slide plate 21113 from deflecting and affecting positioning when inserted.

[0090] like Figures 13 to 17 As shown, a tensioning slot 21116, two tensioning block fixing pin holes 21117 and a clamping screw hole are provided on the left side of the first comb plate 2111.

[0091] The first tensioning device 21110 and the second tensioning device 21120 have the same structure.

[0092] The first tensioning device 21110 includes a rotating slider 211100, a compression spring 211101, a top screw 211102, a clamping block 211103 and a clamping screw 211105.

[0093] The cross section of the rotating slider 211100 is an I-shaped structure, and a roller shaft hole is opened in the center. The rotating slider 211100 can be slidably set in the tensioning groove 21116, and a tensioning roller 21132 is rotatably set in the roller shaft hole.

[0094] A clamping block 211103 is buckled on the side of the first comb plate 2111, and the clamping block 211103 is connected to the tensioning clamping block fixing pin hole 21117 through a pin shaft. The rear side of the clamping block 211103 is also threadedly connected to the side of the first comb plate 2111 through a clamping screw 211105.

[0095] A compression spring 211101 and a top screw 211102 are arranged between the rotating slider 211100 and the clamping block 211103. One end of the compression spring 211101 abuts against one end of the rotating slider 211100, and the other end of the compression spring 211101 abuts against one end of the top screw 211102. The top screw 211102 is threadedly inserted into the clamping block 211103.

[0096] The card block 211103 includes a card block bottom plate 2111030, which is a rectangular plate-shaped structure. A first positioning plate 2111033, a compression spring blocking piece 2111035 and a second positioning plate 2111034 are respectively and vertically fixedly arranged on both sides of the card block bottom plate 2111030 along the length direction, and the first positioning plate 2111033 and the second positioning plate 2111034 are respectively located on both sides of the compression spring blocking piece 2111035.

[0097] Positioning plate pin holes are formed through the sides of the first positioning plate 2111033 and the second positioning plate 2111034 .

[0098] The pin hole of the positioning plate matches the fixing pin hole 21117 of the tensioning block, and fixing pins are inserted through both.

[0099] A stud 2111031 is fixedly arranged in the middle of the block bottom plate 2111030, and a top screw 211102 is slidably threaded through the stud 2111031.

[0100] A clamping screw hole 2111032 is provided at one end of the clamping block bottom plate 2111030, and a clamping screw 211105 passes through the clamping screw hole 2111032 and is threadedly connected to the side surface of the first comb plate 2111. Since a spring is provided in the first tensioning device 21110, and the tension between the active roller 21131 and the tensioning roller 21132 is relatively large, the force required to adjust the gap between the two is relatively large, and it is laborious to use the ordinary thread adjustment method, so a lever structure with a clamping screw 211105 is set up to achieve this. When adjusting the tightness of the conveyor belt, first place the rotating slider 211100, the compression spring 211101, the top screw 211102, and the card block 211103 into the tensioning slide groove 21116 in sequence, and insert the fixing pin into the positioning plate pin hole 2111033 on the first positioning plate 211103 at one end of the card block 211103 and the tensioning card block fixing pin hole 21117, so that the entire card block 211103 can rotate along the fixing pin, so that a lever structure with the fixing pin as the fulcrum can be formed. At this time, the clamping screw 211105 passes through the clamping screw hole 2111032 and is threadedly connected to the side of the first comb plate 2111. By adjusting the clamping screw 211105, the angle of the card block 211103 can be easily adjusted to achieve labor-saving fixation. When the second positioning plate 2111034 is aligned with its corresponding tensioning card block fixing pin hole 21117, the fixing pin can be inserted to achieve fixation. After the fixing is completed, the adjustment of the compression spring 211101 and the adjustment of the tension roller 21132 can be achieved by adjusting the top screw 211102 with a screwdriver. This installation method is very labor-saving and convenient to install.
