[0042] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the embodiments of the present invention, the embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and implementation methods.

[0043] To address the problem of the current cigarette production process requiring significant manual labor to remove defective cartons of cigarettes from entire cartons, this invention provides a cigarette carton removal device. This device solves the problem of low work efficiency caused by the need for manual removal of defective cartons after packaging cigarettes in existing cigarette factories. It improves the automation level of cigarette production, increases work efficiency, and reduces the labor intensity of cigarette factory workers.

[0044] like Figures 1-8As shown, a cigarette removal device for a cigarette box includes: a support frame 1, a box opening assembly 2, a box surface adsorption assembly 3, a box body moving plate 5, and a pushing device 4. The box body moving plate 5 is slidably mounted on the horizontal surface of the support frame 1. The box opening assembly 2 is slidably mounted at both the front and rear ends of the support frame 1, and is used to open and prop open the box opening of the cigarette box mounted on the box body moving plate 5. The box surface adsorption assembly 3 is vertically mounted on the left and right sides of the box body moving plate 5, and is also mounted on the top surface of the box body moving plate 5. The box surface adsorption assembly 3 is used to adsorb the corresponding box surfaces of the cigarette box mounted on the box body moving plate 5. The pushing device 4 is axially mounted at the front end of the support frame 1, and after the box opening assembly 2 opens the front and rear openings of the box body, it is pushed axially along the box body to push out the cigarette packs inside the box.

[0045] Specifically, a box-moving plate is provided on the top surface of the support frame 1. Box opening components 2 are provided at both the front and rear ends of the support frame 1 to correspond to the front and rear ends of the box-moving plate 5. The box opening components 2 can slide to open and prop open the box opening on the box-moving plate 5. Box surface adsorption components 3 are provided on the left and right sides and the top surface of the box-moving plate 5 to adsorb the three sides of the box set on the box-moving plate 5, so that the inner surface of the box is separated from the object in the box. A pushing device 4 is slidably provided at the front end of the support frame 1. After the box opening components 2 propel the front and rear openings of the box, it is pushed along the axial direction of the box to push out the cigarette packs inside the box. This device can realize the automatic removal of cigarette packs, reducing the intensity of manual labor and improving production efficiency.

[0046] like Figure 3 As shown, the box opening assembly 2 includes: a flaring bracket 21, a folding rod 23, and a telescopic cylinder 22. The flaring bracket 21 has a square frame structure. The telescopic cylinder 22 is located on the side of the flaring bracket 21. The folding rod 23 is located on the drive shaft of the telescopic cylinder 22. The folding rod 23 is axially positioned at the inner frame opening of the flaring bracket 21. In use, the telescopic cylinder 22 drives the folding rod to open the box opening and prop it open.

[0047] Furthermore, the size of the inner frame opening is larger than the corresponding box opening size of the box body.

[0048] Furthermore, the upper, left, right, and lower sides of the flared bracket are each provided with the telescopic cylinder and the folding rod.

[0049] In practical applications, the telescopic cylinder 22 is set around the flared bracket. The inner frame opening of the flared bracket 21 should be larger than or equal to the opening size of the box. When the box is opened, the telescopic cylinder 22 drives the folding rod 23 to move inward or outward. At the same time, the flared bracket 21 slides closer to or further away from the box, thereby enabling the folding rod to open and hold the folding cover of the box.

[0050] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the box surface adsorption assembly 3 includes: a fixed bracket 31, a suction nozzle moving plate 32, a drive cylinder 33, and suction nozzles 34. The fixed bracket 31 is connected to the support frame 1. The drive cylinder 33 is mounted on the fixed bracket 31. The suction nozzle moving plate 32 is movably mounted on the fixed bracket 31. The drive shaft 331 of the drive cylinder 33 is connected to the suction nozzle moving plate 32 to drive the suction nozzle moving plate 34 to extend or retract forward or backward. Multiple suction nozzles 34 are mounted on the suction nozzle moving plate 32 for adsorbing the box surface in contact.

[0051] In practical applications, the box body mainly uses a surface adsorption assembly to adsorb substances on the left and right sides and the bottom of the box, thus separating the box surface from the objects inside. The surface adsorption assembly mainly consists of suction nozzles, a drive cylinder, a fixed bracket, and a suction nozzle moving plate. The suction nozzle moving plate is used to set the suction nozzles and has multiple suction nozzle mounting holes in which the nozzles are embedded. During use, the drive cylinder moves the suction nozzle moving plate towards the box surface until the suction nozzles are in contact with the surface. It should be noted that the suction nozzle moving plates on the left and right sides and the corresponding suction nozzle moving plate on the bottom of the box can adopt different layouts and structures.

[0052] Furthermore, the box surface adsorption assembly also includes: a solenoid valve (not shown in the figure) and a negative pressure suction device (not shown in the figure); the suction nozzle is connected to the negative pressure suction device through an air pipe, and the solenoid valve is installed on the air pipe to control the opening and closing or conduction of negative pressure gas in the suction nozzle.

[0053] like Figure 6 As shown, the propulsion device 4 includes: a propulsion cylinder 41, a pusher plate bracket 42, and a pusher plate 43. The pusher plate bracket 42 is slidably mounted on the support frame 1, the pusher plate 43 is mounted at the front end of the pusher plate bracket 42, and the propulsion cylinder 41 is mounted at the rear end of the pusher plate bracket 42. The propulsion cylinder 41 is mounted on the support frame 1, and its drive shaft is connected to the pusher plate bracket 42, for driving the pusher plate 43 to advance forward or retract backward.

[0054] like Figure 2 , 6 and Figure 7As shown, the device further includes a first slide rail 6, a second slide rail 7, and a third slide rail 8. The first slide rail 6, the second slide rail 7, and the third slide rail 8 are arranged parallel to each other on the top surface of the support frame 1, with the second slide rail 7 and the third slide rail 8 respectively located at the front and rear ends of the support frame 1. The housing moving plate 5 is slidably mounted on the first slide rail 6 via a slider 9, and the flared bracket is slidably mounted on the second slide rail 7 and the third slide rail 8 respectively.

[0055] like Figure 8 As shown, the device further includes: a first sliding cylinder 10, a second sliding cylinder 11, a moving plate connecting block 12, and a bracket connecting block 13. The first sliding cylinder 10 is mounted on the support frame 1, the second sliding cylinder 11 is mounted on the bottom surface of the housing moving plate 5, the moving connecting block 12 is mounted on the bottom surface of the housing moving plate 5, and the bracket connecting block 13 is mounted on the flared bracket. The drive shaft of the first sliding cylinder 10 is connected to the moving plate connecting block 12. When the first sliding cylinder 10 operates, it drives the housing moving plate 5 to slide back and forth along the first slide rail 6 via the moving plate connecting block 12. The drive shaft of the second sliding cylinder 11 is connected to the bracket connecting block 13. When the second sliding cylinder 11 operates, it drives the flared bracket to slide back and forth along the second slide rail and / or the third slide rail via the bracket connecting block 13.

[0056] like Figure 6 As shown, the device further includes a box opening fixing frame 44; the box opening fixing frame 44 is connected to the flared bracket disposed at the front end of the support frame platform by bolts, and is slidably disposed on the second slide rail 7, for keeping the open box opening fixed. The box opening fixing frame 44 has a frame-shaped structure. When the pushing device 4 performs the pushing movement, the pushing cylinder drives the pushing plate to pass through the box opening fixing frame and enter the box body, pushing out the cigarette packs inside the box.

[0057] To ensure the stable ejection of objects from the box, box opening support components are installed at both the front and rear ends of the box. When the box is placed on the moving plate, the telescopic cylinder 22 activates, driving the folding rod 23 to extend into the box opening and hook onto the outer side of the box skin. As the telescopic cylinder 22 retracts, it stretches the hooked box skin outward, opening and widening the box opening. Telescopic cylinders on the left, right, and top sides can hook the box skin openings at these three locations. The lower box skin opening can be widened by the telescopic cylinder below, which drives the folding rod. The four cylinders and folding rod maintain the widened opening, preparing the box for the ejection of the contents.

[0058] When it is necessary to push the boxed item out of the box, the second sliding cylinder 11 starts to operate. The flared bracket 21 is connected to the second sliding cylinder 11 through the bracket connecting block 13. When it is necessary to push the cigarette, the second sliding cylinder 11 retracts backward, which in turn drives the flared bracket 21 to retract backward, opening the box opening. The box opening fixing bracket 44 is connected to the flared bracket located at the front end of the support frame through a nut. When the flared bracket moves, the box opening fixing bracket 44 also moves accordingly. The box opening fixing bracket 44 has sliders 9 and second slide rails 7 on both sides. When the flared bracket 21 and the box opening fixing bracket 44 hold the box opening, the push cylinder 41 starts to operate, driving the push plate 43 to push forward. The push plate 43 is connected to the push cylinder 41 through the push plate bracket 42.

[0059] As the propulsion cylinder pushes forward, the first sliding cylinder 10 begins to operate. The box body moving plate 5 is connected to the first sliding cylinder 10 through the moving plate connecting block 13. The movement of the first sliding cylinder 10 drives the box body moving plate 5 to move. There are four sliders on each side of the box body moving plate 5. The first slide rail 6 is installed on both sides of the support frame to allow the box body moving plate 5 to move along the first slide rail. The second sliding cylinder 11 drives the flared brackets fixed at the front and rear ends of the box body moving plate 5 to start moving. During this process, the box body acts as an external mold to ensure that the boxed items are not overturned during the pushing process.

[0060] As can be seen, this invention provides a cigarette pack removal device for cigarette boxes. A box opening assembly is provided on the front and rear ends of a support frame to open the box, which is mounted on a box moving plate. Box surface adsorption assemblies are provided on the left, right, and top sides of the box moving plate to adsorb the corresponding box surfaces. After the box opening assembly opens the front and rear openings of the box, a pushing device advances along the axial direction of the box to push out the cigarette packs inside. This solves the problem of low work efficiency caused by the need for manual removal of defective cigarette packs after packaging cigarettes in existing cigarette factories. It can improve the automation level of cigarette production in cigarette factories, increase work efficiency, and reduce the labor intensity of cigarette factory workers.
