Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of tobacco machinery, in particular to a device for vertical transportation and storage of carton cigarettes. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, in the process of cigarette production, a carton conveying line unit is needed, and a carton cigarette lifting device is arranged in the unit, which can lift the packaged carton cigarettes from a lower packaging machine outlet position to a higher upper transportation track, and before the cartoning machine, the carton cigarettes on the higher transportation track are lowered to the required inlet height of the cartoning machine, so as to realize the industrial transportation of carton cigarettes in the cigarette factory.

[0003] The traditional lifting mode of carton cigarettes mainly adopts a chain plate conveyor (which can be lifted or lowered), an air packer or a slide device (mainly for lowering). In recent years, the tobacco machinery industry has developed rapidly, and large-scale cigarette industrial enterprises have continuously improved the quality requirements for the appearance of carton cigarettes. The traditional carton cigarette lifting mode, especially the air packer and the slide device, has a direct impact on product quality. Due to the sliding friction of the slide, scratches may appear on the appearance of the carton cigarettes, affecting the appearance quality, and the traditional lifting and lowering device has fixed specifications and cannot transport different specifications of carton cigarettes on the same track.

[0004] Patent 202122203697.0 provides a device for quantitatively inputting and outputting cigarettes, which discloses a buffer main body warehouse, which places carton cigarettes on the two end supporting plates and drives the supporting plates to lift by using a synchronous belt mechanism. Patent 201620206052.9 provides a vertical cigarette lifting machine, which places carton cigarettes on a single supporting plate and drives the supporting plate to lift by using a chain and sprocket mechanism. On the one hand, during long-term use, the two structures are prone to synchronous belt loosening or chain loosening, affecting the transmission stability. On the other hand, the supporting plate is prone to friction or impact with the carton cigarettes at the moment of supporting the cigarettes, which may also cause damage to the appearance of the carton cigarettes.

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, people have been seeking an ideal technical solution. SUMMARY

[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the technical scheme adopted by the present application is: a device for vertical transportation and storage of carton cigarettes, comprising a synchronous driving mechanism and a plurality of carton cigarette transmission mechanisms, each of the carton cigarette transmission mechanisms comprises a group of rolling frames, each rolling frame comprises a central rotating shaft and a plurality of radial prongs connected to the central rotating shaft, the synchronous driving mechanism drives the central rotating shafts to rotate synchronously, and the end of the radial prong is used to lift the carton cigarette up and down; as the central rotating shafts rotate, when the radial prongs of the current layer lift the carton cigarette to the highest or lowest position, the radial prongs of the adjacent layer synchronously receive the carton cigarette.

[0008] Based on the above, the end of each radial prong is provided with a roller to rollingly contact the carton cigarette.

[0009] Based on the above, in the rotating overlap area of the adjacent two layers of the rolling frames, the prong types of the radial prongs of the two layers are staggered.

[0010] Based on the above, the synchronous driving mechanism comprises a vertical transmission shaft arranged corresponding to each column of rolling frames, and the vertical transmission shaft and each central rotating shaft of the column are driven by a same-specification conical gear set.

[0011] Based on the above, it further comprises a fixed frame arranged corresponding to each column of rolling frames, and the central rotating shaft is mounted on the fixed frame.

[0012] Based on the above, the rolling frame, the fixed frame, the vertical transmission shaft and the conical gear set are each an independent module.

[0013] The present application has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0014] (1) The carton cigarette is relayed by the rotation of the plurality of rolling frames, the vertical transportation of the carton cigarette is realized, the roller and the carton cigarette are in rolling contact, and scratches on the surface can be avoided, thereby ensuring a good appearance.

[0022] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments.

[0023] like Figs. 1-3 As shown, a device for vertical transport and storage of cigarette cartons includes a synchronous drive mechanism and a multi-layer cigarette carton transport mechanism. Each layer of the cigarette carton transport mechanism includes a set of rolling frames 1. The rolling frame 1 includes a central rotating shaft 11 and a plurality of radial claws 12 uniformly connected to the central rotating shaft 11. Each radial claw 12 has a roller 13 at its end so as to make rolling contact with the cigarette cartons 4.

[0024] The synchronous drive mechanism includes vertical drive shafts 2 respectively provided for each column of rolling frames 1. The vertical drive shafts 2 are connected to each of the central rotating shafts 11 in the same column by bevel gear sets 3 of the same specification. The vertical drive shafts 2 drive each of the central rotating shafts 11 to rotate synchronously through the bevel gear sets 3. The ends of the radial claws 12 are used to lift the carton of cigarettes 4 up and down. As each of the central rotating shafts 11 rotates, when the radial claws 12 of this layer lift the carton of cigarettes 4 to the highest or lowest position, the radial claws 12 of the adjacent layer synchronously receive the carton of cigarettes 4.

[0025] In order to prevent the two adjacent layers of the rolling frame 1 from interfering with each other during rotation, the radial claws 12 of the two layers are arranged in an alternating claw shape in the overlapping area of ​​rotation of the two adjacent layers of the rolling frame 1.

[0026] For ease of installation, the device for vertical transport and storage of cigarette cartons also includes a fixed frame 5 corresponding to each column of rolling racks 1, and the central rotating shaft 11 is mounted on the fixed frame 5.

[0027] The rolling frame 1, the fixed frame 5, the vertical transmission shaft 2 and the bevel gear set 3 are independent modules, which can reduce the types of spare parts of the cigarette factory, and can adapt to different groups and heights of the carton cigarette 4 through longitudinal or transverse combination.

[0028] Working principle:

[0029] The vertical transmission shaft 2 rotates, and each central rotating shaft 11 is synchronously rotated through the bevel gear set 3, when the radial supporting claw 12 of the layer supports the carton cigarette 4 to the highest or lowest position, the radial supporting claw 12 of the adjacent layer synchronously supports the carton cigarette 4, and the carton cigarette 4 is relayed, so that the vertical transportation of the carton cigarette 4 is realized, the roller 13 is in rolling contact with the carton cigarette 4, and scratches on the surface can be avoided, so that the good appearance is ensured.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that: the above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit it; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that: the specific embodiments of the present application can be modified or some technical features can be replaced by equivalent ones; without departing from the spirit of the technical solutions of the present application, they should be covered in the technical solution range of the present application.
