Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of fragrance bead adding devices, in particular to an automatic adding device for fragrance beads of a filter cigarette holder. Background Art

[0002] At present, some high-end cigarettes on the market have one or more small plastic beads filled with liquid flavoring (commonly known as fragrance beads or bursting beads) in the filter mouthpiece. Before smoking, applying pressure on the filter mouthpiece (such as pressing the filter mouthpiece with your fingers) can destroy the small plastic beads and make the flavoring filled in the small plastic beads flow out into the filter mouthpiece, so as to enhance the aroma or characteristics during the sucking process.

[0003] However, since the fragrance beads in the filter cigarette holder are pre-buried in the sponge of the filter cigarette holder by the manufacturer through a special process during the manufacturing process, there are the following problems: 1. The user cannot choose the fragrance type or amount of the fragrance beads. 2. The user has no reservations about whether to use the fragrance beads. Even if the fragrance beads are not used, they will be discarded together with the filter cigarette holder after the cigarette is finished, causing waste.

[0004] Of course, there are also devices for adding aroma beads on the market. Through the hole-forming needle, a receiving groove for placing aroma beads is formed in the filter cigarette holder, and then the aroma beads are placed in the corresponding guide hole, and then the release device is pressed to slide the aroma beads to the position of the receiving groove, and then the aroma beads are inserted into the receiving groove using a pushing device. However, the existing adding devices have the following problems: 1. The position of the aroma beads and the receiving groove is inconsistent. When the aroma beads are inserted through the pushing device, it may cause the aroma beads to deviate (cannot be aligned with the reference position). When the deviation is too large, it may cause the aroma beads to break at the position of the pushing device; 2. The structure is complex and not conducive to operation. The aroma beads need to be released before the next step can be performed (that is, the filter cigarette holder must be placed in the guide hole in advance, otherwise the aroma beads will fall). Summary of the invention

[0005] The main purpose of the present invention is to provide an automatic adding device for filter cigarette holder fragrance beads, aiming to make adding fragrance beads convenient and quick, and the fragrance beads will not fall abnormally, with a simple structure and convenient operation.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides an automatic adding device for filter cigarette holder flavor beads, comprising:

[0007] A shell, wherein the shell is defined as a cavity having a receiving space inside, and the cavity is used to place the scented beads;

[0008] A mounting seat, the mounting seat is arranged in the cavity, the mounting seat has a sliding groove, the sliding groove is equipped with a push rod, and the bottom of the mounting seat and the bottom wall of the cavity form a bead outlet channel;

[0009] The cavity is provided with a guide hole for placing the filter cigarette holder, and an elastic limiter is provided at a position of the guide hole near the bead outlet channel. The elastic limiter is provided with a limiter hole with a diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the fragrance bead. The limiter hole is arranged opposite to the push rod. When the fragrance bead rolls to the position of the limiter hole, the push rod slides toward the position of the guide hole and applies pressure to the fragrance bead to pass through the limiter hole.

[0010] Preferably, the bead outlet channel allows individual fragrance beads to pass through in sequence, and the diameter of the bead outlet channel is slightly larger than the diameter of the fragrance bead.

[0011] Preferably, the elastic limiting member and the bottom wall of the cavity are located at the same horizontal plane or slightly lower than the horizontal plane of the bottom wall of the cavity.

[0012] Preferably, when the push rod slides toward the guide hole, the side wall of the push rod fits with the side wall of the cavity.

[0013] Preferably, the diameter of the push rod is smaller than the diameter of the guide hole.

[0014] Preferably, a spring is provided between the mounting seat and the push rod, one end of the spring abuts against the mounting seat, and the other end of the spring abuts against the push rod, exerting an elastic force on the push rod to move away from the guide hole.

[0015] Preferably, the push rod is provided with a sliding buckle extending toward the outside of the cavity, the shell is provided with a guide groove, and the sliding buckle can slide along the length direction of the guide groove.

[0016] Preferably, the shell is provided with a hole-forming pin with a sharp end, and the hole-forming pin is arranged in the positioning hole; the positioning hole or the guide hole is detachably installed with a guide sleeve, and the guide sleeve is a tube body with a through groove in the middle.

[0018] Preferably, the housing is provided with a positioning groove, and the positioning groove is used for installing an elastic limiting member.

[0019] The technical solution of the present invention is to set a bead outlet channel between the bottom wall of the cavity and the bottom of the mounting seat. The fragrance beads are stacked on the bottom of the cavity under the action of gravity. The fragrance beads are limited by the bead outlet channel so that a single fragrance bead is placed at the position of the guide hole. In specific operation, the filter cigarette holder is formed into a receiving groove through a hole-forming pin, and then the filter cigarette holder is placed in the guide hole at the bottom of the shell body. By applying pressure to overcome the spring on the push rod, the fragrance beads overcome the limitation of the elastic limiting member, pass through the limiting hole and are inserted into the receiving groove. The push rod is reset under the spring pressure. The adding method is simple and fast, and the addition of fragrance beads can be achieved without the release device. The elastic limiting member is set to avoid abnormal omission of fragrance beads. During use, the fragrance beads will not be broken due to excessive pressure, thereby polluting the adding device. The structure is simple and easy to operate. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an automatic adding device for filtering cigarette holder fragrance beads comprises:

[0030] A housing 1, wherein the housing 1 is defined as a cavity 11 having a receiving space therein, and the cavity 11 is used to place the fragrance beads 100;

[0031] The mounting seat 2 is arranged in the cavity 11, and the mounting seat 2 has a sliding groove 21, and the sliding groove 21 is installed with a push rod 3. The bottom of the mounting seat 2 and the bottom wall of the cavity 11 form a bead outlet channel 4; the cavity 11 is provided with a guide hole 5, and the guide hole 5 is provided with an elastic limiter 51 at a position close to the bead outlet channel 4, and the elastic limiter 51 is provided with a limiter hole 52 with a diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the fragrance bead 100, and the limiter hole 52 is arranged opposite to the push rod 3. When the fragrance bead 100 rolls to the position of the limiter hole 52, the push rod 3 slides toward the position of the guide hole 5 and applies pressure through the limiter hole 52 to the fragrance bead 100 to clamp the fragrance bead 100 into the receiving groove.

[0032] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: a bead outlet channel 4 is set between the bottom wall of the cavity 11 and the bottom of the mounting seat 2, and the fragrance beads 100 are stacked on the bottom of the cavity 11 under the action of gravity. The fragrance beads 100 are limited by the bead outlet channel 4, so that a single fragrance bead 100 is placed at the position of the guide hole 5. In specific operation, the filter cigarette holder 200 is formed into a receiving groove through the hole-forming pin 6, and then the filter cigarette holder 200 is placed in the guide hole 5 at the bottom of the shell 1. By applying pressure to overcome the spring 31 to the push rod 3, the fragrance bead 100 overcomes the limitation of the elastic limiting member 51, passes through the limiting hole 52 and is inserted into the receiving groove. The push rod 3 is reset under the pressure of the spring 31. The adding method is simple and fast, and the addition of the fragrance bead 100 can be achieved without the release device. The setting of the elastic limiting member 51 avoids abnormal omission of the fragrance bead 100, and the fragrance bead 100 will not be broken due to excessive pressure during use, thereby polluting the adding device. The structure is simple and easy to operate.

[0033] In a specific embodiment, the elastic limiting member 51 may also be provided by a non-elastic member, but the elasticity requirement for the fragrance bead 100 is higher (i.e., the fragrance bead 100 is deformed under a certain pressure, so that the fragrance bead 100 passes through the limiting hole 52), but the applicable fragrance bead 100 needs to be customized separately.

[0034] In the embodiment of the present invention, the bead outlet channel 4 allows a single fragrance bead 100 to pass through in sequence, and the diameter of the bead outlet channel 4 is slightly larger than the diameter of the fragrance bead 100, that is, the position between the top rod 3 and the limiting hole 52 can prevent a fragrance bead 100, and avoid the top rod 3 from simultaneously abutting against multiple fragrance beads 100, resulting in the excess fragrance beads 100 being broken due to the pressure of the top rod 3. In a specific embodiment, the outer periphery of the top rod 3 can be set as a wedge-shaped surface, so as to push the excess fragrance beads 100 away from the bead outlet channel 4, reducing the interference of the fragrance beads 100 on the top rod 3.

[0035] In the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, the elastic stopper 51 and the bottom wall of the cavity 11 are located at the same horizontal plane or slightly lower than the horizontal plane of the bottom wall of the cavity 11. When the upper wall surface of the elastic stopper 51 and the bottom wall of the cavity 11 (i.e., the bead outlet channel 4 is located at the same horizontal plane), the fragrance bead 100 can be moved to the position of the stopper hole 52 by tilting the housing 1 at a certain angle; when the elastic stopper 51 is lower than the bottom wall of the cavity 11, the fragrance bead 100 can be moved to the stopper hole 52 more conveniently (there is no need to prevent the fragrance bead 100 from exiting the bead outlet channel 4 and returning to the cavity 11, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 First embodiment); Of course, it is also possible to set protrusions at intervals in the bead outlet channel 4 (the diameter of the bead outlet channel 4 should be larger than the diameter of the fragrance bead 100 + the height of the protrusion to facilitate the passage of the fragrance bead 100), so that the fragrance beads 100 located in the bead outlet channel 4 are spaced apart, and the fragrance beads 100 located at the position of the limiting hole 52 can be prevented from sliding off (such as Figure 5 Second embodiment). Of course, in another embodiment (such as Figure 5 In the third embodiment, the elastic limiting member 51 may also be set to be higher than the horizontal plane of the bottom wall of the cavity 11, and an inwardly concave groove may be set in the elastic limiting member 51 to facilitate the positioning of the fragrance beads 100.

[0036] In the embodiment of the present invention, when the push rod 3 slides toward the guide hole 5, the side wall of the push rod 3 fits with the side wall of the cavity 11. That is, the fragrance bead 100 abuts against the side wall of the cavity 11, and when the push rod 3 slides downward, the center of the push rod 3 and the center of the fragrance bead 100 are basically on the same axis, which avoids the lower end surface of the push rod 3 from contacting the side end of the fragrance bead 100, resulting in the rupture of the fragrance bead 100.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present invention, the diameter of the push rod 3 is smaller than the diameter of the guide hole 5, so that the fragrance bead 100 is pushed into the receiving groove of the filter cigarette holder 200. Therefore, the diameter of the end face of the push rod 3 is smaller than the fragrance bead 100, and the middle part of the push rod 3 can be set as an inner concave surface, thereby increasing the contact area with the fragrance bead 100.

[0038] In the embodiment of the present invention, a spring 31 is provided between the mounting seat 2 and the push rod 3, one end of the spring 31 abuts against the mounting seat 2, and the other end abuts against the push rod 3, exerting an elastic force on the push rod 3 to move away from the guide hole 5. When the push rod 3 is away from the guide hole 5, the lower end surface of the push rod 3 and the elastic limiter 51 form a position for accommodating the fragrance beads 100. Of course, the push rod 3 can also always be in a position close to the guide hole 5. When it is needed, the filter cigarette holder 200 is placed in the guide hole 5, the push rod 3 is pulled up, the fragrance beads 100 are moved to the position, and then the push rod 3 is released, and the fragrance beads 100 can be inserted into the accommodating groove.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present invention, the push rod 3 has a sliding buckle 32 extending toward the outside of the cavity 11, and the housing 1 is provided with a guide groove 12, and the sliding buckle 32 can slide along the length direction of the guide groove 12. The provision of the sliding buckle 32 can make the use of the push rod 3 more convenient.

[0040] In the embodiment of the present invention, the housing 1 is provided with a hole-forming pin 6 with a sharp end, and the hole-forming pin 6 is arranged in the positioning hole 61; the positioning hole 61 or the guide hole 5 is detachably installed with a guide sleeve 62, and the guide sleeve 62 is a tube body with a through groove 63 in the middle. The hole-forming pin 6 can be used to form a receiving groove for placing the fragrance beads 100, wherein the positioning hole 61 can be used to form a receiving groove for ordinary cigarettes; when the guide sleeve 62 is installed in the guide sleeve 62, the thin cigarette can be inserted into the through groove 63, and the receiving groove can be formed by the hole-forming pin 6. Therefore, the present invention can be applied to thin cigarettes or ordinary cigarettes, improves product applicability, and is easy to use.

[0041] In the embodiment of the present invention, at least one side of the end face of the elastic limiter 51 is an inclined surface that gradually descends from the periphery toward the limiting hole 52. By setting the lower wall surface of the elastic limiter 51 (i.e., the side away from the bead outlet channel 4) as an inclined surface, it can be suitable for different filter cigarette holders 200, thereby limiting the filter cigarette holder 200. Of course, a plurality of spaced positions can also be set on the lower wall surface of the elastic limiter 51, so as to correspond to cigarettes of different sizes and make the filter cigarette holder 200 correspond to the center of the fragrance bead 100. In actual use, the addition of the fragrance bead 100 is not limited to being inserted into the center position. In addition, setting the side of the elastic limiter 51 close to the bead outlet channel 4 as an inclined surface can position the fragrance bead 100 (i.e., below the horizontal plane of the bottom wall of the cavity 11).

[0042] In the embodiment of the present invention, the housing 1 is provided with a positioning groove 13, and the positioning groove 13 is used to install the elastic limiting member 51. The positioning groove 13 is provided to facilitate the installation of the elastic limiting member 51.

[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present invention, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
