Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of tobacco industry detection, and in particular relates to a track-changing sampling device and method suitable for online detection of cigarette package sealing degree. Background Art
[0002] The sealing of cigarette packaging is an important control indicator in the product production process. The sealing of packaging directly affects the migration rate of the moisture content of the finished cigarettes with the environment. Due to factors such as long-distance transportation, uncontrollable environmental temperature and humidity during storage, and long sales cycle of some cigarettes, it is easy to cause problems such as tobacco mold, yellow spots on cigarettes or decreased moisture content, increased short ends and decreased sensory quality, affecting product quality and brand image.
[0003] Therefore, during the production process, the sealing of small cigarette boxes is tested and monitored by random sampling on a shift-by-shift and machine-by-machine basis. For cigarette factories that produce many brands or have large production volumes, the frequency of random sampling can only be achieved once per shift. During the operation of the packaging equipment, there are fluctuations in the high-speed transmission of each component, which leads to large fluctuations in the sealing of the packaging. Random sampling cannot achieve real-time monitoring of packaging quality and timely response from the equipment maintenance team, and the management and control results are not obvious.
[0004] At the same time, when the laboratory needs to perform comparative experiments on multiple parameters and a large number of samples, it is necessary to improve the experimental efficiency. The sealing detection of sealed small boxes needs to be able to be performed automatically and continuously. Therefore, it is necessary to design a small box sealing detection device that can be performed online and continuously to solve this problem. Summary of the invention

10. A track-changing sampling method suitable for online detection of cigarette packaging sealing, characterized in that: The following steps are involved: Step 1): small boxes (7) to be tested are placed in batches and at intervals on the input side of the multi-stage conveying mechanism (1) to prepare for testing; Step 2): The speed measuring wheel (2) in the horizontal conveyor of the lowest layer detects the running speed of the horizontal conveyor, and the optical fiber sensor (34) detects the position of the small box (7) to be tested. After this information is obtained and calculated by the industrial control host (35), a driving signal is formed and sent to the track transfer system (3); Step 3): The swing mechanism (32) on the track transfer system (3) uses the calculated data to make the small box (7) to be tested pass through the action range of the swing mechanism (32), and the drive motor (33) is started to drive the swing mechanism (32) to drive the double arc track body (36) to move horizontally. During the translation of the double arc track body (36), the small box (7) to be tested is moved parallel and slides to the loading horizontal conveyor (41); Step 4): The guide rod (42) provided on the loading unit (4) limits the position of the small box (7) to be tested to a specific position, and the detection component (43) at the end of the loading unit (4) detects the specific position of the small box (7) to be tested and transmits the signal to the manipulator (5); Step 5): The robot (5) grabs the small box (7) to be tested at a correct angle through the camera (51) and the suction cup (52) and puts it into the sealed cabin (62); Step 6): the small box sealing detection unit (6) seals the pressure cover (63) on the sealing chamber (62), and then starts the vacuum pumping mechanism (66) to vacuum the sealing chamber (62) until the set negative pressure value is reached, then stops the suction and cuts off the passage, and uses the pressure difference sensor (67) to observe the pressure difference change in the sealing chamber (62) to determine the sealing of the small box; Step 7): After the test is completed, the pressure cover (63) is opened, and the robot (5) places the tested small box on the loading unit (4). The loading unit (4) is reversed or continues to move along the loading unit to transfer the small box away; or the robot (5) transfers it to other recycling positions.
