[0002] The cigarette box packaging production line includes multiple workstations, among which the outer box transparent paper packaging workstation uses transparent film to wrap the cigarette packs and adds a beauty function. The outer box transparent paper packaging machine uses a vertical conveyor belt to beautify the cigarette packs during the vertical lifting process, and then pushes the vertically lifted cigarette packs into the horizontal conveyor belt and enters the strip box packaging machine. Since the movement direction of the cigarette packs changes between the two conveyor belts, it is difficult for the pushers of the existing cigarette pack pushing equipment to keep in sync with the cigarette packs during the pushing process, and friction will be generated between the cigarette packs and the cigarette packs, affecting the packaging effect. Therefore, an intermittent vertical conveyor belt is generally used. After the vertical conveyor belt lifts the cigarette packs vertically into place, it pauses, and the cigarette pack pushing equipment pushes the cigarette packs into the horizontal conveyor belt.

[0035] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the box pushing device is used to push the cigarette packs 10 on the first conveyor line 100 to the second conveyor line 200. The first conveyor line 100 conveys the cigarette packs 10 along the first direction, and the second conveyor line 200 conveys the cigarette packs 10 along the second direction. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction, and the first direction and the second direction are both located in the first plane. For ease of understanding, illustratively, the first direction is the vertical direction, that is, Figure 1 The second direction is the horizontal direction, i.e. Figure 1 The first plane is the vertical plane where X and Y are located.

[0037] The box pushing device includes a planetary gear assembly 1 and a pushing assembly 2, wherein the pushing assembly 2 includes a pushing member 21 and a connecting member 22. The pushing member 21 is connected to the connecting member 22, and the pushing member 21 has a pushing surface 211, and the pushing surface 211 is used to abut the side of the cigarette pack 10. The planetary gear assembly 1 includes a driving motor (not shown in the figure), a first gear set 11 and a second gear set 12, wherein the first gear set 11 includes a planetary carrier 111 and an internal gear 112 and a first gear shaft 113 that mesh with each other, and the axial direction of the internal gear 112 is perpendicular to the first plane. The driving motor is connected to the planetary frame 111 in a transmission manner. The planetary frame 111 is used to drive the first gear shaft 113 to rotate around the axial direction of the internal gear 112 and rotate around its own axial direction at the same time. The input end of the second gear set 12 is connected to the first gear set 11 in a transmission manner. The output end of the second gear set 12 is connected to the connecting member 22. The first gear set 11 is used to drive the second gear set 12 to move so that the pushing surface 211 is always parallel to the first direction, that is, the pushing member 21 is always kept in a vertical state, so that it can contact the surface of the cigarette pack 10. Among them, the axial direction of the connecting member 22 and the axial direction of the first gear shaft 113 are parallel to each other and are not arranged in the same line. The axial direction of the connecting member 22 is perpendicular to the first plane. When the first gear shaft 113 rotates around the axial direction of the internal gear 112, the connecting member 22 moves along the third direction in the first plane to push the cigarette pack 10 on the first conveyor line 100 to the second conveyor line 200. The third direction is arranged at an angle to the first direction and the second direction.

[0038] In the box pushing device of the embodiment of the present invention, the connecting member 22 moves along the third direction in the first plane. Since the third direction is set at an angle with the first direction and the second direction, the movement of the connecting member 22 has a component speed in the first direction and the second direction. The component speed in the first direction enables the pushing member 21 to follow the cigarette pack 10 on the first conveyor line 100 in the first direction, ensuring that the pushing surface 211 matches the position of the cigarette pack 10. The pushing surface 211 and the cigarette pack 10 are approximately relatively stationary in the first direction, avoiding the generation of vertical friction between the pushing member 21 and the cigarette pack 10; the component speed in the second direction enables the pushing member 21 to smoothly push the cigarette pack 10 to the second conveyor line 200. During the pushing process, the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200 always maintain a conveying state without pausing, meeting the high-speed flow requirements and avoiding affecting the production rhythm; the pushing surface 211 and the cigarette pack 10 are always in surface contact, no impact is generated, the pushing action is smooth, and the reliability of the box pushing device is improved.

[0039] In order to realize the transmission connection between the first gear set 11 and the second gear set 12, the first gear set 11 further includes a follower rod 114 (refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4), the planet carrier 111 and the internal gear 112 are coaxially arranged. One end of the follower rod 114 is fixedly connected to the planet carrier 111, the first gear shaft 113 is hinged to the planet carrier 111, and the follower rod 114 and the first gear shaft 113 are coaxially arranged. The second gear set 12 includes a follower wheel 121, a first transmission gear 122 and a second gear shaft 123. The follower wheel 121 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first gear shaft 113 and moves with the first gear shaft 113, that is, it rotates around its own axis and revolves around the axis of the internal gear 112 at the same time. The first transmission gear 122 and the second gear shaft 123 are both hinged to the follower wheel 121, and the first transmission gear 122 is fixedly connected to the other end of the follower rod 114 away from the planetary carrier 111. The first transmission gear 122 follows the follower rod 114 in the axial revolution around the internal gear 112. Since the first transmission gear 122 is also hinged to the follower wheel 121 that can rotate on its own, there is relative rotation between the first transmission gear 122 and the follower wheel 121. The second gear shaft 123 is fixedly connected to the connecting member 22, the first transmission gear 122 is transmission-connected to the second gear shaft 123, and the second gear shaft 123 and the connecting member 22 are fixedly connected. Therefore, when the driven wheel 121 rotates around the axial direction of the internal gear 112, the planetary carrier 111 simultaneously drives the first gear shaft 113, thereby realizing that the first transmission gear 122 drives the second gear shaft 123 to rotate; and because the second gear shaft 123 simultaneously revolves around the axial direction of the internal gear 112 with the driven wheel 121, the angular velocity of the second gear shaft 123 relative to the axial direction of the internal gear 112 is always zero, thereby realizing that the angular velocity of the connecting member 22 is always zero, the pushing member 21 always remains in a vertical state, and the pushing surface 211 is always parallel to the first direction.

[0040] In the above structure, the gear ratio of the first transmission gear 122 and the second gear shaft 123 is 2:3, and the gear ratio of the internal gear 112 and the first gear shaft 113 is 3:1.

[0041] The calculation process is as follows:

[0042] The transmission ratio is calculated by the conversion mechanism method. When the follower wheel 121 is fixed, the transmission ratio from the first transmission gear 122 to the second gear shaft 123 is:

[0043]

[0044] In the above formula, since the follower wheel 121 is fixedly connected to the first gear shaft 113, and the first transmission gear 122 is fixedly connected to the planet carrier 111 through the follower rod 114, therefore, ω 121 =ω 113 ,ω 122 =ω 111 In the operation of the first gear set 11, when the gear ratio of the internal gear 112 and the first gear shaft 113 is 3:1, ω 113=-2ω 111 . Need to achieveω 123 =0, we can conclude 123=3 / 2. That is, the gear ratio of the first transmission gear 122 and the second gear shaft 123 is 2:3, and the first transmission gear 122 and the second gear shaft 123 rotate in the same direction.

[0045] In order to realize the same rotation direction of the first transmission gear 122 and the second gear shaft 123, the second gear set 12 further includes a second transmission gear 124, and the second transmission gear 124 is hinged to the follower wheel 121. The second transmission gear 124 is meshed with the first transmission gear 122 and the second gear shaft 123 at the same time, and after the intermediate transmission of the second transmission gear 124, the first transmission gear 122 and the second gear shaft 123 have the same direction of rotation.

[0046] like Figure 5 As shown, in the operation of the first gear set 11, the first gear set 11 is a planetary gear system consisting of a planet carrier 111, an internal gear 112 and a first gear shaft 113. Since the follower wheel 121 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first gear shaft 113, and the second gear shaft 123 is hinged on the follower wheel 121, the center position of the second gear shaft 123 can be simplified to a certain point M on the first gear shaft 113. Figure 5 In the figure, A represents the axis of the internal gear 112, B represents the axis of the first gear shaft 113, and M is eccentrically arranged relative to the axial direction of the first gear shaft 113. The first gear shaft 113 is used as a planetary gear, and the motion trajectory of a certain point M thereon is a regular polygon. When the gear ratio between the internal gear 112 and the first gear shaft 113 is 3:1, the motion trajectory of M is approximately a triangle, that is, the motion trajectory of the connecting member 22 in the first plane is approximately a triangle. In order to match the mutually perpendicular positional relationship between the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200, the position of point M relative to point B is adaptively adjusted. On the one hand, the motion trajectory of point M is approximately an equilateral triangle, and on the other hand, the position of the approximately equilateral triangle on the first plane relative to the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200 is changed, so that when the connecting member 22 moves along the side length of the approximately equilateral triangle, it can match the position and conveying speed of the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200.

[0047] Specifically, if Figure 6 As shown, the movement trajectory of the connecting member 22 in the first plane is an approximate equilateral triangle, which includes a first side 221, a second side 222, and an angle between the first side 221 and the second side 222. The position of point M relative to point B is adjusted so that the angle is toward the second conveyor line 200. Figure 6The middle arrow indicates the movement direction of the connecting member 22. When the connecting member 22 moves along the first side 221 to move the pushing member 21 toward the second conveyor line 200, the connecting member 22 abuts against the cigarette pack 10 on the first conveyor line 100 and pushes the cigarette pack 10 to the second conveyor line 200 during the movement along the first side 221. When the connecting member 22 moves along the second side 222, the pushing member 21 moves away from the second conveyor line 200, completing one pushing action. The connecting member 22 circulates along an approximately equilateral triangle and realizes the next pushing action during the next movement along the first side 221.

[0048] In one embodiment, the first gear set 11 further includes a frame 115 and a first cover plate 116. The frame 115 has a first side panel 1151, the internal gear 112 is connected to the frame 115 and the first side panel 1151 is arranged around the internal gear 112, a first mounting hole is opened on the first cover plate 116, the first cover plate 116 is rotatably covered on the first side panel 1151, and the first shaft end 1131 of the first gear shaft 113 passes through the first mounting hole to connect to the input end of the second gear set 12. During the process of the first gear shaft 113 rotating and revolving, the first cover plate 116 is always covered on the first side panel 1151 to provide protection to prevent dust and impurities from entering the interior of the first gear set 11 and affecting the transmission accuracy.

[0049] Similarly, the driven wheel 121 has a second side panel 1211 around it, and the second gear set 12 further includes a second cover plate 125. The second cover plate 125 has a second mounting hole, and the second cover plate 125 is covered on the second side panel 1211. The connecting member 22 passes through the second mounting hole to be connected to the second shaft end 1231 of the second gear shaft 123. While the connecting member 22 rotates with the second gear shaft 123, the second cover plate 125 is always covered on the second side panel 1211 to prevent dust and impurities from entering the second gear set 12 and affecting the transmission accuracy.

[0050] like Figure 2 As shown, two groups of first gear shafts 113, second gear sets 12 and pusher assemblies 2 are provided, the planet carrier 111 extends along the radial direction of the inner gear 112, two first gear shafts 113 are symmetrically hinged at both ends of the planet carrier 111, and two groups of second gear sets 12 and two groups of pusher assemblies 2 correspond to two first gear shafts 113 respectively. In this way, through the action of the planet carrier 111, the motion control of the two groups of pusher assemblies 2 can be realized at the same time, and the two pushers 21 of the two groups of pusher assemblies 2 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the inner gear 112, and push the adjacent cigarette packs 10 on the first conveyor line 100 in turn, further improving the push efficiency.

[0051] The embodiment of the present invention further provides a tobacco packaging device, which includes a box pushing device of any of the above embodiments. The tobacco packaging device also includes a first conveyor line 100 and a second conveyor line 200, the first conveyor line 100 conveys cigarette packs 10 along a first direction, and the second conveyor line 200 conveys cigarette packs 10 along a second direction, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction, and the first direction and the second direction are both located in a first plane, and the box pushing device is used to push the cigarette packs 10 on the first conveyor line 100 to the second conveyor line 200. The box pushing device realizes the movement of the connecting member 22 in the third direction in the first plane through the planetary gear system formed by the planetary gear assembly 1. Since the third direction is set at an angle with the first direction and the second direction, the movement of the connecting member 22 has a component speed in the first direction and the second direction. The component speed in the first direction enables the pushing member 21 to follow the cigarette pack 10 on the first conveyor line 100 in the first direction, ensuring that the pushing surface 211 matches the position of the cigarette pack 10. The pushing surface 211 and the cigarette pack 10 are approximately relatively stationary in the first direction, avoiding the generation of vertical friction between the pushing member 21 and the cigarette pack 10; the component speed in the second direction enables the pushing member 21 to smoothly push the cigarette pack 10 to the second conveyor line 200. During the pushing process, the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200 always maintain a conveying state without pausing, meeting the high-speed flow requirements and avoiding affecting the production rhythm of the tobacco packaging equipment; the pushing surface 211 and the cigarette pack 10 are always in surface contact, no impact is generated, the pushing action is smooth, and the packaging quality of the tobacco packaging equipment is improved.

[0052] The structure and conveying principle of the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200 can be set with reference to the prior art, which is not the focus of this application and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0053] In one embodiment, the first conveyor line 100 has two cigarette packs 10 arranged side by side along the first direction, and the pusher 21 can simultaneously abut the sides of the two cigarette packs 10 to simultaneously push the two cigarette packs 10. The two cigarette packs 10 are pushed by one pushing action of the pusher 21, further improving the packaging efficiency.
