Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of tobacco manufacturing, in particular to a high-speed screening system for popping beads. Background Art

[0002] The existing disc bead screening system mainly uses centrifugal force to screen the beads. Its design screening speed is 1.4 million beads / hour. After practical operation, it is found that the actual screening speed is about 800,000 beads / hour. After research, it is found that the bead screening speed of the above-mentioned existing disc bead screening system is closely related to the rotation speed of the turntable. Since the beads are light in weight, when the turntable speed is too high, the movement trajectory of the beads will be uncontrolled due to the centrifugal force, so that the defective beads cannot be screened out. In order to make the bead screening qualified, the rotation speed has to be reduced, which results in a reduced screening speed, and its production capacity cannot be further improved, and it cannot meet the current actual production needs.

[0020] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a high-speed screening system for popping beads includes: a frame 1, a conveyor belt 2 arranged on the frame 1 for conveying popping beads 4, a rubbing belt 3 arranged crosswise with the conveyor belt 2, and a camera 5 for photographing the popping beads.

[0021] The frame is provided with a motor for driving the conveyor belt 2 and a roller shaft for supporting the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt 2 is provided with a receiving cavity 21 for accommodating explosive beads. The bottom of the receiving cavity 21 is a through hole. The receiving cavity 21 is preferably a rectangular perforation. The side length of the rectangular perforation is adapted to the diameter of the explosive beads. Generally, after the explosive beads are loaded into the receiving cavity, the lower half of the explosive beads are exposed to the lower edge of the receiving cavity, and the inscribed circle of the explosive beads and the receiving cavity is located above the lower edge of the receiving cavity. Support plates 22 are provided below the conveyor belt 2 on both sides of the rubbing belt 3. Of course, the receiving cavity can also be of other shapes, as long as the size is roughly adapted to the explosive beads. When the conveyor belt moves forward, the receiving cavity pushes the explosive beads forward. The bracket 1 is also provided with a cleaning roller brush 23 for cleaning the conveyor belt 2, which is rotatably contacted with the conveyor belt. It also includes a hopper 74 provided at the head end of the conveyor belt 2. The popping beads to be tested are placed in the hopper. The discharge end of the hopper is in a flat mouth structure, which can just accommodate a row of popping beads. When the hopper is opened, the popping beads fall into the accommodating cavity on the conveyor belt in rows under the action of gravity.

[0022] The rubbing belt 3 is arranged on the mounting frame 33, and the rubbing belt is driven by a motor, and the motor is mounted on the mounting frame 33. The bracket 1 is provided with a slide rail 11, and the mounting frame 33 is slidably arranged on the slide rail 11. Further, the mounting frame 33 is provided with a slide rail 2 34, and the slide rail 2 34 cooperates with the slide rail 11, so that the rubbing belt can be easily dragged out from the bracket, so as to facilitate the replacement of the rubbing belt and the maintenance of the rubbing belt and its driving system. The rubbing belt 3 is located below the conveyor belt 2 and can contact the bottom of the explosive beads in the accommodating cavity. The rubbing belt 3 is made of transparent or translucent material, and a transparent or translucent support plate 31 for supporting the rubbing belt is arranged below the rubbing belt 3. A cleaning roller brush 2 32 for cleaning the rubbing belt 3 is also installed on the mounting frame 33, which rotates to contact the rubbing belt. It also includes a light source 9 arranged below the rubbing belt 3 and irradiated at the intersection of the conveyor belt 2 and the rubbing belt 3.

[0023] The camera 5 is aimed at the intersection of the conveyor belt 2 and the rubbing belt 3. During the detection, the light source is irradiated upward, and the light passes through the support plate, the rubbing belt, and the bursting beads in sequence and is photographed by the camera.

[0024] A suction pipe is provided above the conveyor belt 2 in front of the camera 5, and an air blowing pipe is provided below the conveyor belt corresponding to the suction pipe, and the number of the air blowing pipes corresponds to the number of the accommodating cavities in a row on the conveyor belt 2. The suction pipe includes a suction pipe 61 for defective products and a suction pipe 62 for repairable products, and the air blowing pipe includes an air blowing pipe 1 81 and an air blowing pipe 2 82 corresponding to the suction pipe 61 for defective products and the suction pipe 62 for repairable products, respectively.

[0025] The accommodating cavity on the conveyor belt pushes the bursting beads forward, and the rubbing belt pushes the bottom of the bursting beads to rotate sideways. During the journey at the intersection of the conveyor belt and the rubbing belt, the camera keeps taking pictures, and then transmits the pictures to the image processing device for picture synthesis processing to obtain a complete three-dimensional scanning structure of the bursting beads, which can clearly display the all-round picture information of the bursting beads, so as to judge whether there are defects in the bursting beads and whether these defects can be repaired, and then control the valves of the suction pipe and the blowing pipe to open or close through the PLC, blow up the bursting beads, and pass through the suction pipe to the defective product box 71 or the repairable product box 72, and the qualified products fall into the qualified product box 73 along the conveyor belt.

[0026] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
