Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of cigarette production technology, and more specifically, to a cigarette packing device. Background Technology
[0002] Cigarette packs are packaged in cartons when they leave the factory. Traditionally, cigarette packs are manually loaded into cartons. To improve loading efficiency, ensure quality, and reduce costs, many cigarette pack loading devices have been designed. In the field of industrial cigarette packaging technology, high-end cigarettes are often packaged in wooden cartons. Typically, cigarette packs need to be neatly arranged into the carton before loading. Generally, they are loaded once in two layers of five columns (10 packs) or twice in a single layer of five columns (5 packs). However, for book-style split cartons, since there are two loading chambers, each holding five packs, two loading devices are needed to complete the packaging of one carton of cigarettes. Existing cigarette pack loading devices can only achieve two layers of five columns (10 packs) or a single layer of five columns (5 packs), and cannot simultaneously load 10 packs into the two loading chambers. Furthermore, the two loading chambers have a certain gap, which needs to be met to accommodate the gap between the loading chambers of the book-style split cartons in order to complete the loading of the cigarette packs into the carton.
[0003] In summary, how to provide a split-open type cigarette packing device is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a cigarette pack loading device that can load 10 cigarette packs into a single layer, thus meeting the requirements for cigarette packing in split-opening cartons.

Detailed Implementation
[0070] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0071] The core of this invention is to provide a cigarette pack insertion device that can insert 10 cigarette packs into a single box in three layers, meeting the requirements for cigarette packing in split-opening cartons.
[0072] Please refer to Figures 1-11A cigarette pack loading device includes a frame 1, a cigarette pack lifting mechanism 4, a cigarette pack translating mechanism 5, a cigarette pack pressing mechanism 6, and a drive mechanism 8. A carton platform 2 is mounted on the frame 1. The cigarette pack lifting mechanism 4 is installed on the frame 1 and located on one side of the carton platform 2. The cigarette pack lifting mechanism 4 includes two top cigarette plates 401, which are used to raise two sets of cigarette packs 3 to a preset height. The cigarette pack translating mechanism 5 includes two translating cigarette frames 501, which are used to lift the cigarette packs by the two top cigarette plates 401. Two sets of cigarette packs 3 at a preset height are moved horizontally above the carton platform 2. The spacing between the two horizontal cigarette frames 501 on one side of the top cigarette plate 401 is different from the spacing on one side of the carton platform 2. The cigarette pack pressing mechanism 6 includes two pressing plates 601. The two pressing plates 601 are used to press the two sets of cigarette packs 3 above the carton platform 2 from the horizontal cigarette frames 501 into the carton. The driving mechanism 8 is used to drive the two top cigarette plates 401 and the two pressing plates 601 to move up and down and the two horizontal cigarette frames 501 to move horizontally.
[0073] It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the invention, the carton platform 2 is provided with positioning components for positioning the carton. Specifically, the positioning components are several positioning strips installed on the carton platform 2. By adjusting the position of the positioning strips, they can achieve a positioning effect on the carton.
[0074] In use, the cigarette pack lifting mechanism 4, the cigarette pack translating mechanism 5, the cigarette pack pressing mechanism 6, and the drive mechanism 8 are all installed on the frame 1. The frame 1 has a carton platform 2 for placing the cartons to be packaged. The cigarette pack lifting mechanism 4 is installed on the frame 1 and located on one side of the carton platform 2. The cigarette pack lifting mechanism 4 includes two top cigarette plates 401, which are used to raise two sets of cigarette packs 3 to a preset height. The cigarette pack translating mechanism 5 includes two translating cigarette frames 501, which are used to translate the two sets of cigarette packs 3, which have been raised to a preset height by the two top cigarette plates 401, to above the carton platform 2. That is, the cigarette packs 3 are conveyed to the two top cigarette plates 401 by a conveying device. When the translating cigarette frames 501 move above the top cigarette plates 401, the top cigarette plates... 401 pushes the cigarette pack 3 into the translational cigarette frame 501. The translational cigarette frame 501 moves the cigarette pack 3 above the carton. At this time, the cigarette pack pressing mechanism 6 includes two pressing plates 601. The two pressing plates 601 are used to press the two sets of cigarette packs 3 located above the carton platform 2 from the translational cigarette frame 501 into the carton. The driving mechanism 8 is used to drive the two top cigarette plates 401 and the two pressing plates 601 to move up and down and the two translational cigarette frames 501 to move horizontally. This realizes the simultaneous loading of 10 cigarette packs 3 in one layer, reduces time consumption, and helps to improve production efficiency. In addition, the distance between the two translational cigarette frames 501 on one side of the top cigarette plate 401 is different from the distance on one side of the carton platform 2, which can adapt to different distances in the carton loading chamber, thereby meeting the needs of various types of carton loading.
[0075] Please refer to Figures 3-5 In order to fix the cigarette pack 3 inside the sliding cigarette frame 501, in some embodiments, the sliding cigarette frame 501 is provided with several pairs of corresponding top pieces 508. The side of the top piece 508 facing the top cigarette plate 401 is inclined towards the outside of the sliding cigarette frame 501. The pairs of corresponding top pieces 508 have similar pre-tightening forces. That is to say, when the cigarette pack 3 is pushed into the sliding cigarette frame 501 by the top cigarette plate 401, the pairs of corresponding top pieces 508 will press and fix the cigarette pack 3 to prevent it from falling off. In addition, the inclination of the side of the top piece 508 facing the top cigarette plate 401 towards the outside of the sliding cigarette frame 501 can increase the smoothness of the cigarette pack 3 when entering the sliding cigarette frame 501.
[0076] Optionally, in some embodiments, the top sheet 508 may be made of a material with elastic properties, such as spring steel, aluminum alloy, etc.
[0077] Optionally, in some embodiments, a spring is provided between the top plate 508 and the translational smoke frame 501, so that the top plate 508 has a preload force that is close to each other.
[0078] Optionally, in some embodiments, the top plate 508 near the edge of the top smoke plate 401 contacts the translational smoke frame 501.
[0079] Please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 In some embodiments, the cigarette pack lifting mechanism 4 further includes a lifting support 402, a lifting guide rod 403, and a lifting connecting plate 404. The lifting support 402 is mounted on the frame 1, the lifting guide rod 403 is slidably mounted on the lifting support 402, the top cigarette plate 401 is connected to the lifting guide rod 403, and the end of the lifting guide rod away from the top cigarette plate 401 is connected to the lifting connecting plate 404. Specifically, the sliding of the lifting guide rod 403 within the lifting support 402 drives the top cigarette plate 401 to rise or fall, and the lifting guide rod provides a guiding and fixing function for the movement of the top cigarette plate 401.
[0080] Optionally, in some embodiments, the number of lifting guide rods 403 can be selected as needed, and the two top smoke plates 401 can be fixed to different guide rods respectively.
[0081] Please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11To achieve height control of the top smoke plate 401, in some embodiments, the drive mechanism 8 includes a lifting connecting rod 802 and a lifting swing arm 801. The lifting connecting rod 802 is hinged to the lifting connecting plate 404, the middle part of the lifting swing arm 801 is hinged to the frame 1, and one end of the lifting swing arm 801 is hinged to the lifting connecting rod 802. The rotation of the lifting swing arm 801 can control the height change of the lifting connecting plate 404. That is, by swinging the lifting swing arm 801, the positions of the lifting swing arm 801 and the lifting connecting rod 802 change, thereby achieving height control of the top smoke plate 401.
[0082] Optionally, in some embodiments, the lifting arm 801 is V-shaped, and the swing of the lifting arm 801 is controlled by telescopic structural components such as cylinders, electric cylinders or hydraulic cylinders.
[0083] In other embodiments, the swing of the lifting arm 801 can be controlled by a motor.
[0084] Please refer to Figures 3-5 In some embodiments, the cigarette pack translation mechanism 5 further includes a translation wall plate 503 and two translation support seats 505. The translation wall plate 503 is fixed to the frame 1. A translation guide rod 504 is installed on the translation wall plate 503. The two translation support seats 505 are slidably installed on the translation guide rod 504. The two translation cigarette frames 501 are respectively fixed to the two translation support seats 505. That is, the translation support seats 505 are fixedly connected to the translation cigarette frames 501, while the translation support seats 505 slide on the translation wall plate 503, so that the translation cigarette frames 501 can meet the translation purpose as needed.
[0085] Optionally, in some embodiments, two telescopic structural components such as pneumatic cylinders, electric cylinders, or hydraulic cylinders can be provided to control the sliding of the two translational support seats 505 respectively, so as to satisfy the different spacing of the two translational smoke frames 501 at different positions.
[0086] Please continue to refer to this. Figures 3-5In some embodiments, the cigarette pack translation mechanism 5 further includes a slide rail 507, a first translation link 502, and a second translation link 506. The slide rail 507 is installed on the translation wall panel 503, and a camshaft 509 is slidably installed in the slide rail 507. The first translation link 502 and the second translation link 506 are respectively hinged to two translation support seats 505, and the ends of the first translation link 502 and the second translation link 506 away from the translation support seats 505 are rotatably connected to the camshaft 509. The first translation link 502 and the second translation link 506 are arranged at a preset angle. The movement of the first translation link 502 and the second translation link 506 is controlled by the sliding of the camshaft 509 along the slide rail 507. When the two translation cigarette frames 501 are located above the top cigarette plate 401, the first translation link 502 is hinged to the second translation support seat 506. 2. The included angle between the first translation link 502 and the second translation link 506 is the first included angle. When the two translation cigarette frames 501 are located above the carton platform 2, the included angle between the first translation link 502 and the second translation link 506 is the second included angle. The first included angle is greater than the second included angle. That is to say, the first translation link 502 and the second translation link 506 are rotatably connected at the same end by the camshaft 509. The sliding of the camshaft 509 on the slide rail 507 drives the first translation link 502 and the second translation link 506 to move, thereby changing the position of the two translation support seats 505. At the same time, when the camshaft 509 slides on the slide rail 507, the preset included angle of the first translation link 502 and the second translation link 506 is changed, thereby realizing the control of the distance between the two translation support seats 505.
[0087] Optionally, in some embodiments, the horizontal height of the end of the slide 507 near the top smoke plate 401 is lower than the horizontal height of the end of the slide 507 near the carton platform 2, so that the slide 507 is set at an inclined angle. That is, by controlling the distance between the camshaft 509 and the two translation support seats 505, the preset included angle of the first translation link 502 and the second translation link 506 can be controlled.
[0088] In the above embodiments, the slide rail 507 can be a detachable slide rail. That is, by adjusting the tilt angle of the slide rail, the horizontal height of the end of the slide rail 507 near the top smoke plate 401 and the horizontal height of the end of the slide rail 507 near the carton platform 2 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the distance between the two translational smoke frames 501 before and after movement. This is beneficial to meet the usage requirements of different cartons and improve the versatility of the device.
[0089] In other embodiments, a small telescopic cylinder is installed between the first translation link 502 and the second translation link 506, and the telescopic cylinder is controlled to control the preset included angle between the first translation link 502 and the second translation link 506.
[0090] Please refer to Figures 3-5In some embodiments, the drive mechanism 8 further includes a first translational swing arm 809, a second translational swing arm 810, and a third translational link 811. The middle portion of the first translational swing arm 809 is hinged to the frame 1. The second translational swing arm 810 is L-shaped and its middle portion is hinged to the translational wall panel 503. A fourth translational link 822 is provided between one end of the second translational swing arm 810 and the first translational swing arm 809, and the two are rotatably connected through the fourth translational link 822. One end of the third translation link 811 is hinged to the camshaft 509, and the other end of the third translation link 811 is hinged to the end of the second translation swing arm 810 away from the first translation swing arm 809. Specifically, the rotation of the first translation swing arm 809 drives the rotation of the second translation swing arm 810. The second translation swing arm 810 is vertically set, so the swing of the second translation swing arm 810 can control the horizontal movement of the third translation link 811, thereby driving the camshaft 509 to reciprocate in the sliding direction.
[0091] Optionally, in some embodiments, the lifting swing arm 801 is V-shaped, and the swing of the first translational swing arm 809 is controlled by telescopic structural components such as cylinders, electric cylinders or hydraulic cylinders.
[0092] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the cigarette pack pressing mechanism 6 includes a pressing connecting plate 604, a pressing guide rod 602, and a pressing support seat 603. The pressing plate 601 is installed on the pressing connecting plate 604, the pressing connecting plate 604 is connected to the pressing guide rod 602, the pressing support seat 603 is installed on the frame 1, and the pressing guide rod 602 slides on the pressing support seat 603. That is to say, the pressing plate 601 moves up and down under the guidance of the pressing guide rod to press down on the cigarette pack 3.
[0093] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the drive mechanism 8 further includes a downward swing arm 815 and a downward connecting rod 816. The downward swing arm 815 is hinged to the frame 1 at the middle. One end of the downward connecting rod 816 is hinged to the end of the downward guide rod 602, and the other end of the downward connecting rod 816 is hinged to the downward swing arm 815. The height of the downward connecting rod 816 is controlled by the swing of the downward swing arm 815, thereby controlling the height of the downward guide rod and the smoke pressing plate 601 to achieve repeated downward pressure on the tobacco pack 3.
[0094] Optionally, in some embodiments, the lifting swing arm 801 is V-shaped, and the swing of the pressing swing arm 815 is controlled by telescopic structural components such as cylinders, electric cylinders or hydraulic cylinders.
[0095] Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9To improve the accuracy of cigarette pack 3 entering the carton, some embodiments also include a cigarette pack guiding mechanism 7. The cigarette pack guiding mechanism 7 includes a guide mounting plate 701 with two guide holes 705 and several guide pieces 702 evenly distributed in the two guide holes 705. That is, the guide mounting plate 701 is set above the carton platform 2. Through the cooperation of the two guide holes 705 and several guide pieces 702 on the guide mounting plate 701, when the cigarette pack 3 is pressed down by the cigarette pressing plate 601, it passes through the guide holes 705 and several guide pieces 702 to achieve accurate entry of the cigarette pack 3 into the carton.
[0096] Optionally, in some embodiments, the ends of the guide plates 702 extending out of the guide holes 705 are all inclined toward each other, that is, the spacing between the guide plates 702 when the cigarette pack 3 enters the carton is reduced, so as to achieve more accurate positioning.
[0097] Alternatively, in some embodiments, the guide plate 702 is made of a resilient material, such as metal or PVC.
[0098] Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, the cigarette pack guiding mechanism 7 further includes a cigarette pack guide rod 704 and a guide support seat 703. The guide mounting plate 701 is connected to the cigarette pack guide rod 704, and the guide support seat 703 is mounted on the frame 1. The cigarette pack guide rod 704 slides on the guide support seat 703. That is, the guide mounting plate 701 is guided and controlled by the cigarette pack guide rod 704 so that it moves up and down when the cigarette pack 3 is pressed into the carton.
[0099] Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, the drive mechanism 8 further includes a guide arm 819 and a guide connecting rod 821. The middle part of the guide arm 819 is hinged to the frame 1. One end of the guide connecting rod 821 is hinged to the cigarette pack guide rod 704, and the other end of the guide connecting rod 821 is hinged to the end of the guide arm 819. That is, the swing of the guide arm 819 causes the height of the guide connecting rod 821 to change, thereby controlling the adjustment of the height position of the cigarette pack guide rod 704.
[0100] Optionally, in some embodiments, the lifting arm 801 is V-shaped, and the swing of the guide arm 819 is controlled by telescopic structural components such as cylinders, electric cylinders or hydraulic cylinders.
[0101] Please refer to Figure 2In some embodiments, the drive mechanism 8 further includes a drive shaft 9, on which a lifting cam 803, a translation cam 806, a pressing cam 812, and a guide cam 817 are mounted. The lifting cam 803 is provided with a lifting groove 805 with a predetermined trajectory. A lifting bearing 804 is mounted at the end of the lifting swing arm 801. The lifting bearing 804 slides along the lifting groove 805. That is, the lifting groove 805 is arranged according to a preset trajectory. When the lifting cam 803 rotates, the lifting bearing 804 slides in the lifting groove 805 according to the preset trajectory, thereby controlling the lifting swing arm 801 to complete the swinging action according to a preset time and speed, thereby completing the function of lifting the tobacco pack 3 upward.
[0102] Meanwhile, the translation cam 806 is provided with a translation groove 807 with a predetermined trajectory, and the end of the translation swing arm is equipped with a translation bearing 808. The translation bearing 808 slides along the translation groove 807. That is to say, the translation groove 807 is arranged according to the preset trajectory. When the translation cam 806 rotates, the translation bearing 808 slides in the translation groove 807 according to the preset trajectory, thereby controlling the first translation swing arm 809 to complete the swing action according to the preset time and speed, thereby completing the translation and conveying function of the tobacco pack 3.
[0103] Meanwhile, the pressing cam 812 is provided with a pressing groove 813 with a predetermined trajectory, and the end of the pressing swing arm 815 is equipped with a pressing bearing 814. The pressing bearing 814 slides along the pressing groove 813. That is to say, the pressing groove 813 is arranged according to the preset trajectory. When the pressing cam 812 rotates, the pressing bearing 814 slides in the pressing groove 813 according to the preset trajectory, thereby controlling the pressing swing arm 815 to complete the swing action according to the preset time and speed, thereby completing the function of pressing the cigarette pack 3 into the carton.
[0104] Meanwhile, the guide cam 817 is provided with a guide rail 818 with a predetermined trajectory, and the end of the guide arm 819 is equipped with a guide bearing 820. The guide bearing 820 slides along the guide rail 818. In other words, the guide rail 818 is arranged according to a preset trajectory. When the guide cam 817 rotates, the guide bearing 820 slides in the guide rail 818 according to the preset trajectory, thereby controlling the guide arm 819 to complete the swinging action according to the preset time and speed.
[0105] When the translational cigarette frame 501 is above the top cigarette plate 401, the drive shaft drives the lifting wheel to rotate, causing its lifting arm 801 to swing, which in turn moves the top cigarette plate 401 upward, pushing the cigarette pack 3 into the translational cigarette frame 501. The drive shaft continues to rotate, causing the first translational arm 809 to swing, moving the translational cigarette frame 501 above the carton platform 2. At the same time, the lifting arm 801 swings, causing the top cigarette plate 401 to reset. After this, the rotation of the lifting cam 803 will not cause the lifting arm 801 to swing until the next cycle. When the cigarette pack 3 moves above the carton platform 2, the drive shaft continues to rotate, causing the guide cam 817 to rotate, causing the guide arm 819 to swing, which in turn moves the guide mounting plate 701 towards the carton platform 2 until the guide arm 819 moves towards the carton platform 2. As the tobacco pack 3 enters the carton, the drive shaft drives the pressing cam 812 to rotate, causing the pressing arm 815 to swing and move the pressing plate 601 downward, pressing the tobacco pack 3 into the carton. During this process, the first translational arm 809 remains stationary, and the drive shaft drives the pressing cam 812 to continue rotating, causing the pressing arm 815 to swing and reset the pressing plate 601. When the height of the pressing plate 601 is higher than the guide mounting plate 701, the guide cam 817 rotates, causing the guide arm 819 to swing and reset the guide mounting plate 701. When the height of the pressing plate 601 is higher than the translational tobacco frame 501, the translation cam 806 rotates, causing the first translational arm 809 to swing and reset the translational tobacco frame 501, completing one complete cycle of the above working position.
[0106] By using a drive shaft to drive multiple cams to rotate synchronously, and by controlling the preset trajectories on different cams, the corresponding swing arms are controlled to swing in a specific sequence, thereby completing the control action of the cigarette pack 3, reducing the cost of manufacturing and using the device.
[0107] In other words, the key point of this embodiment is that: the cigarette pack 3 is conveyed to the two top cigarette plates 401 by the conveying device. When the translating cigarette frame 501 moves above the top cigarette plate 401, the top cigarette plate 401 pushes the cigarette pack 3 into the translating cigarette frame 501. The translating cigarette frame 501 moves the cigarette pack 3 above the carton. At this time, the cigarette pack pressing mechanism 6 includes two pressing plates 601. The two pressing plates 601 are used to press the two sets of cigarette packs 3 located above the carton platform 2 from the translating cigarette frame 501 into the carton. The driving mechanism 8 is used to drive the two top cigarette plates 401 and the two pressing plates 601 to move up and down and the two translating cigarette frames 501 to move horizontally. This realizes the simultaneous packing of 10 cigarette packs 3 in one layer, reduces time consumption, and helps to improve production efficiency. In addition, the distance between the two translating cigarette frames 501 on one side of the top cigarette plate 401 is different from the distance on one side of the carton platform 2, which can adapt to different distances in the carton packing chamber, thereby realizing various types of carton packing needs.
