[0014] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present invention more clear, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings to facilitate understanding by technicians.

[0015] The present invention discloses a cigarette box lane sorting and tidying mechanism, which mainly includes a main transmission channel 1, an auxiliary transmission channel 11, a downward channel 12, a divider 2, and a sorter 3. Two main transmission channels 1 are installed in parallel, and two auxiliary transmission channels 11 are respectively installed on both sides of the two parallel main transmission channels 1. The main transmission channel 1 and the auxiliary transmission channel 11 are connected through the downward channel 12. The divider 2 is installed on the main transmission channel 1, and the sorter 3 is installed on the main transmission channel 1 and is located at the rear end of the divider 2. The divider 2 can push the correspondingly arranged cigarette boxes that need to be packaged upright into the auxiliary transmission channel 11, and the remaining cigarette boxes are respectively divided into the two main transmission channels 1 and conveyed. When passing through the sorter 3, they are blocked and pushed down by the sorter 3 and continue to be conveyed.

[0016] The lane divider 2 includes a motor 21, a reducer 22, an eccentric wheel 23, an embedded plate 24, a door frame 25, a lane divider 27, and an air nozzle 28. The motor 21, the reducer 22 and the eccentric wheel 23 are connected in transmission and installed above the main transmission channel 1. The embedded plate 24 is installed on the door frame 25. The door frame 25 is set in the main transmission channel 1. The embedded plate 24 is connected to the eccentric wheel 23 through a waist-shaped hole, driving the door frame 25 to move left and right. The lane divider 27 is upright on the door frame. Inside the rack 25, the door-type rack 25 is divided into two channels, corresponding to the two main conveying channels 1 respectively. Windows 26 facing the descending channel 12 are respectively opened on both sides of the door-type rack 25. Air nozzles 28 are installed at the position of the dividing plate 27 facing the windows 26. The air nozzles 28 are connected to the air supply system. Take the packaging of 1441 (1 pack upright, 4 packs flat, 4 packs flat, 1 pack upright) as an example to illustrate: the cigarette boxes are transported into the divider 2 in groups of 5 boxes. After the 5-box group enters the divider 2, the motor 21 passes The reducer 22, eccentric wheel 23 and embedded plate 24 drive the portal frame 25 to move to one side, and the air nozzle 28 blows air to blow the last cigarette box into the corresponding auxiliary conveying channel 11. At the same time, the remaining four cigarette boxes are folded into the corresponding main conveying channel 1. At this time, the portal frame 25 is on one side of the main conveying channel 1, and another group of 5 cigarette boxes enters the other channel of the portal frame 25. The motor 21 drives the portal frame 25 to move to the other side, and the air nozzle 28 blows air to blow the last cigarette box into the corresponding auxiliary conveying channel 11 (another auxiliary conveying channel 11). At the same time, the remaining four cigarette boxes are folded into the corresponding main conveying channel 1 (another main conveying channel 1). In this reciprocating motion, when the cigarette boxes on the two main conveying channels 1 pass through the sorter 3, they are blocked, pushed down and continued to be conveyed by the sorter 3; the special arrangement of high-end and high-grade cigarette products is realized, and the cigarette boxes can be conveyed upright and sorted and laid down for conveying respectively, meeting the arrangement of high-end and high-grade cigarette products.

[0017] The tidying device 3 includes a mounting bracket 31 and a tidying plate 32. The tidying plate 32 is mounted above the main conveying channel 1 through the mounting bracket 31. The tidying plate 32 is an isosceles trapezoid, and the upright cigarette packs are pushed down by the oblique side of the isosceles trapezoidal tidying plate 32.

[0018] The eccentric wheel 23 is connected to the waist-shaped hole of the embedded plate 24 through a roller 29 to reduce wear and ensure stable operation.

[0019] Working process:

[0020] Take the packaging of 1441 (1 pack upright, 4 packs flat, 4 packs flat, 1 pack upright) as an example: the cigarette boxes are transported into the divider 2 in groups of 5 boxes in sequence. After the 5-box group enters the divider 2, the motor 21 drives the portal frame 25 to move to one side through the reducer 22, the eccentric wheel 23 and the embedded plate 24. The air nozzle 28 blows air to blow the last cigarette box into the corresponding auxiliary conveying channel 11. At the same time, the remaining four cigarette boxes are folded into the corresponding main conveying channel 1. Therefore, the portal frame 25 is on one side of the main conveying channel 1. Another group of 5 cigarette boxes enters another channel of the portal frame 25. The motor 21 drives the portal frame 25 to move to the other side, and the air nozzle 28 blows air to blow the last cigarette box into the corresponding auxiliary conveying channel 11 (another auxiliary conveying channel 11). At the same time, the remaining four cigarette boxes are folded into the corresponding main conveying channel 1 (another main conveying channel 1). In this reciprocating motion, when the cigarette boxes on the two main conveying channels 1 pass through the sorter 3, they are blocked and pushed down by the sorter 3 and continue to be conveyed; the cigarette products with a specific arrangement of high-end and high-grade cigarette products are conveyed in separate lanes; the cigarette boxes can be conveyed upright and conveyed after being sorted and laid down, meeting the arrangement of high-end and high-grade cigarette products.

[0021] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not limiting. Although the present invention has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made in form and details without departing from the scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
