Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a kind of packaging equipment, specifically to a kind of discharging device of cigarette box product inspection machine feeding system. BACKGROUND

[0002] The general process of producing cigarette box packaging products is plate making, printing, gilding, transfer laser, die cutting, inspection, and factory shipment. During the printing process of cigarette boxes, due to various reasons, there are inevitably defects on the appearance of cigarette boxes. Therefore, in order to ensure the quality of cigarette boxes, manufacturers must use product inspection machines to detect the appearance of the produced cigarette paper boards and select qualified cigarette boxes and eliminate defective products. The product inspection machine inspects the cigarette paper boards one by one, and the height of each stack of paper boards is required when feeding the product inspection machine.

[0003] Due to the influence of the sharpness of the die cutting tool and the thickness of the cigarette paper board, the die cutting lines at the positions of the four "small square petals" of the cigarette paper board may not be completely cut through during the die cutting of the cigarette paper board, and there may be a sticking phenomenon, which makes the small square petals of the two overlapped cigarette paper boards easily scratch together when the feeding mechanism of the product inspection machine discharges, thereby causing damage to the cigarette paper board and greatly affecting the accuracy of the subsequent surface quality detection. In order to eliminate the sticking phenomenon of the uncut die cutting lines on the cigarette paper board and eliminate the phenomenon that the small square petals are hooked by the cigarette paper board when the product inspection machine transports the cigarette paper board, the cigarette paper board needs to be sent to the angle pulling station provided with a bidirectional petal folding machine (see patent ZL201821706019.8) before entering the product inspection machine, and the bidirectional petal folding machine will break the die cutting lines of the four small square petals of the cigarette paper board.

[0004] The cigarette paper boards coming out of the die cutting machine need to be neatly stacked into a stack of a fixed height by a stacking machine, but the petal folding machine can only fold the petals of cigarette paper boards of a certain thickness, so the stacked cigarette paper boards need to be separated by a separating device (one stack of cigarette paper boards is generally separated into 7-8 stacks of cigarette paper boards) before entering the angle pulling station to meet the angle pulling requirements of the bidirectional petal folding machine. Since the stack of cigarette paper boards processed by the bidirectional cigarette petal folding machine cannot be automatically output, it can only be output by clamping (finger air cylinder), and it is relatively troublesome to clamp the stack of cigarette paper boards directly to the feeding port of the product inspection machine by the finger air cylinder, so an output platform is needed to transition to the feeding port of the product inspection machine. Therefore, the feeding system of the cigarette product inspection machine 500 should include a cigarette stacking and conveying device 100, a separating device 200, a bidirectional petal folding machine 300, and a discharging device 400 (see Figure 1 ). SUMMARY
