Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cigarette packaging equipment technology, and more particularly to a cartoning machine. Background Technology

[0002] Generally speaking, tobacco products, especially cigarettes, need to be packaged before they are sold. Traditional cigarette packaging mainly consists of an inner pack and an outer box. The inner pack mainly includes the cigarette pack, aluminum foil, and inner frame paper, while the outer box mainly includes the label paper and transparent paper.

[0003] To improve cigarette packaging efficiency, automated cartoning machines are now widely used for inner box packaging. A cartoning machine includes a feeding mechanism and a paper feeding mechanism. The feeding mechanism's mold holds a set of cigarettes, while the paper feeding mechanism supplies wrapping paper for each set. However, if an error occurs during a paper feeding operation causing a jam, the corresponding wrapping paper needs to be manually removed, creating a gap in the wrapping paper supply. Since the feeding mechanism supplies cigarette sets continuously, this results in a situation where the supplied cigarette sets lack corresponding wrapping paper, requiring operators to manually remove the sets, thus impacting efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cartoning machine that can avoid manual removal by operators, reduce downtime, and improve efficiency.

[0005] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A cartoning machine, comprising:

[0007] The feeding mechanism includes a feeding conveyor belt, a plurality of molds spaced apart on the outer periphery of the feeding conveyor belt, and a rejection pusher disposed on the side of the feeding conveyor belt, wherein a cigarette set is disposed inside the mold.

[0008] The paper feeding mechanism includes a first detection element and a paper box. The paper box contains a pack of packaging paper. Packaging paper is sequentially supplied to the bottom of the pack of packaging paper. The packaging paper corresponds one-to-one with the mold box. The first detection element detects whether the packaging paper is supplied normally. If the packaging paper is not supplied normally at a certain time, the rejection pusher will remove the corresponding cigarette pack from the mold box.

[0009] The packaging mechanism includes a packaging wheel and multiple workstations disposed on the packaging wheel. Corresponding execution components are disposed on the outside of the multiple workstations. The packaging paper rotates with the packaging wheel and passes through the multiple execution components in sequence.

[0010] Preferably, the paper feeding mechanism further includes a paper feeding conveyor belt, one end of which is located below the paper box and the other end of which is located above the packaging mechanism. Pressure rollers are spaced apart on the paper feeding conveyor belt, and the packaging paper passes between the paper feeding conveyor belt and the pressure rollers.

[0011] Preferably, the paper feeding mechanism further includes a dispensing assembly, which includes a dispensing head disposed above the paper feeding conveyor belt, and the dispensing head performs a dispensing operation on the packaging paper.

[0012] Preferably, the paper feeding mechanism further includes a paper tapping assembly, which includes a pressure plate and a rotating arm. One end of the rotating arm is hinged to the base of the cartoning machine. The pressure plate is located at the end of the rotating arm away from the base. The pressure plate presses the packaging paper located at the end of the paper feeding conveyor belt near the packaging mechanism onto the packaging wheel.

[0013] Preferably, the feeding mechanism further includes a second detection element, which is located upstream of the rejection pusher. The second detector is used to detect whether there is a missing cigarette in the mold box.

[0014] Preferably, the feeding mechanism further includes multiple lower flues, which are arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt, and the multiple lower flues can simultaneously feed cigarettes into the corresponding multiple mold boxes.

[0015] Preferably, each of the lower flues is provided with a third detection element, which is used to detect whether there is a cigarette blockage in the lower flue.

[0016] Preferably, the feeding mechanism further includes multiple sets of smoke pushing components corresponding one-to-one with the multiple lower flues. Each smoke pushing component includes a smoke pushing drive and a smoke pushing column. The smoke pushing drive drives the smoke pushing column to reciprocate near or away from the mold box. The smoke pushing column is used to push the cigarettes in the lower flues into the mold box.

[0017] Preferably, a flipping mechanism is provided between the paper feeding mechanism and the packaging mechanism. The flipping mechanism includes a flipping wheel, and the flipping wheel is provided with a plurality of fixed stations spaced apart along the circumference. Each fixed station is provided with a receiving box. The flipping wheel rotates around a horizontal axis to flip the receiving box.

[0018] Preferably, the flipping mechanism further includes a flipping pusher, which is disposed at the discharge position of the flipping wheel and is configured to push the cigarette pack rotated to the discharge position out of the receiving box.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0020] This invention provides a cartoning machine. In this cartoning machine, a feeding mechanism continuously supplies cigarette sets to a packaging mechanism, and a paper feeding mechanism continuously supplies wrapping paper to the packaging mechanism. The packaging mechanism first receives the wrapping paper, then receives the cigarette sets on the wrapping paper, and finally folds the wrapping paper through multiple stations to complete the packaging operation of the cigarette sets. The first detection element of the paper feeding mechanism can detect each supply of wrapping paper. If a package of wrapping paper is not supplied correctly, the rejection pusher of the feeding mechanism removes the corresponding cigarette set from the mold box, ensuring that the corresponding position in the packaging mechanism is empty for both the cigarette set and the wrapping paper. This avoids manual removal by the operator, reduces downtime, and improves efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0040] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0041] This invention provides a cartoning machine for packaging cigarette packs consisting of multiple cigarette sticks. For example... Figures 1-5As shown, the cartoning machine includes a feeding mechanism 1, a paper feeding mechanism 2, and a packaging mechanism 3. The feeding mechanism 1 includes a feeding conveyor belt 11, multiple mold boxes 12 spaced around the outer periphery of the feeding conveyor belt 11, and a rejection pusher 13 located beside the feeding conveyor belt 11. Each mold box 12 contains a set of cigarettes. The paper feeding mechanism 2 includes a first detection element 21 and a paper box 22. Each paper box 22 contains 100 sets of packaging paper. Packaging paper 100 is sequentially supplied to the bottom of each set of packaging paper 100. Each packaging paper 100 corresponds to a mold box 12. The first detection element 21 detects whether the packaging paper 100 is supplied normally. If the packaging paper 100 is not supplied normally at a certain time, the rejection pusher 13 removes the corresponding set of cigarettes from the mold box 12. The packaging mechanism 3 includes a packaging wheel 31 and multiple workstations located on the packaging wheel 31. Each workstation has a corresponding execution component located on its outer side. The packaging paper 100 rotates with the packaging wheel 31 and passes through the multiple execution components sequentially.

[0042] In this cartoning machine, the feeding mechanism 1 continuously supplies cigarette sets to the packaging mechanism 3, and the paper feeding mechanism 2 continuously supplies packaging paper 100 to the packaging mechanism 3. The packaging mechanism 3 first receives the packaging paper 100, and then receives the cigarette sets on the packaging paper 100. After folding the packaging paper 100 through multiple stations, the packaging operation of the cigarette sets is completed. The first detection element 21 of the paper feeding mechanism 2 can detect each supply of packaging paper 100. If a supply of packaging paper 100 is not normal, the rejection pusher 13 of the feeding mechanism 1 will remove the corresponding cigarette set from the mold box 12, ensuring that both the cigarette set and the packaging paper 100 are empty in the corresponding position of the packaging mechanism 3. This avoids manual removal by the operator, reduces downtime, and improves efficiency.

[0043] The cartoning machine also includes a base, which is the supporting structure of the cartoning machine. The feeding mechanism 1, the paper feeding mechanism 2, and the packaging mechanism 3 are all set on the base. Normal supply of packaging paper 100 means that the quantity and position of packaging paper 100 correspond one-to-one with the cigarette sets in the mold box 12, and the packaging paper 100 is flat without wrinkles, folds, or other defects.

[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the feeding mechanism 1 also includes multiple lower flues 15, which are arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt. Each lower flue 15 can simultaneously feed cigarettes into multiple corresponding mold boxes 12. Each lower flue 15 is equipped with multiple lower flue channels, each channel used for directional feeding of lower cigarettes. Therefore, each lower flue 15 can slide multiple cigarettes into the mold box 12 to form a cigarette group. The simultaneous feeding of multiple lower flues 15 into multiple mold boxes 12 greatly improves efficiency.

[0045] Preferably, the feeding mechanism 1 further includes multiple sets of smoke-pushing assemblies 17 corresponding one-to-one with the multiple lower flues 15. Each smoke-pushing assembly 17 includes a smoke-pushing drive 171 and a smoke-pushing slide 172. The smoke-pushing drive 171 drives the smoke-pushing slide 172 to reciprocate near or away from the mold box 12. The smoke-pushing slide 172 is used to push the cigarettes in the lower flues 15 into the mold box 12. Because the lower flues 15 are inclined downwards, the smoke-pushing assembly 17 facilitates the cigarettes lying flat as they enter the mold box 12. When a group of cigarettes slides down to the bottom through the lower flues 15, the smoke-pushing drive 171 drives the smoke-pushing slide 172 to approach the mold box 12, thereby pushing the group of cigarettes into the mold box 12 to form a cigarette set.

[0046] It is worth noting that when a cigarette slides down in the lower flue 15, it may get stuck in one of the lower flue channels, causing problems with the number and position of cigarettes falling into the mold box 12. To solve this problem, each lower flue 15 is equipped with a third detection element 16, which is used to detect whether there is a cigarette blockage in the lower flue 15.

[0047] Specifically, the third detection element 16 is a non-contact photoelectric sensor, which avoids damaging the cigarette. When the light emitted by the transmitter in the third detection element 16 can be received by the receiver, it indicates that the lower flue 15 is unobstructed; conversely, when the light emitted by the transmitter in the third detection element 16 is blocked for a long time, it indicates that there is a blockage in the lower flue 15. If a blockage occurs, the operator needs to clear the blocked cigarette to restore the lower flue 15 to its original state.

[0048] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the feeding mechanism 1 also includes a second detection element 14, which is located upstream of the rejection pusher 13. The second detection element 14 is used to detect whether there are missing cigarettes in the mold box 12. The detection by the second detection element 14 can ensure that the number of cigarettes in the mold box 12 is normal. If the feeding mechanism 1 malfunctions and causes an error in the number of cigarettes in a certain group of cigarettes, the group of cigarettes needs to be removed. At this time, the paper feeding mechanism 2 will stop feeding one sheet of packaging paper 100 to ensure that the corresponding position of the cigarette group and the packaging paper 100 in the packaging mechanism 3 are empty, thus avoiding waste.

[0049] Specifically, the second detection element 14 is a non-contact photoelectric sensor, which avoids damaging the cigarettes. When the light emitted by the transmitter in the second detector is blocked, it indicates that the mold box 12 is full of cigarettes and there are enough cigarettes; conversely, when the light emitted by the transmitter in the second detector can be received by the receiver, it indicates that there are gaps in the mold box 12 and cigarettes are missing.

[0050] In this embodiment, the feeding mechanism 1 further includes a feeding pusher, which is located downstream of the rejection pusher 13. The feeding pusher is used to push the cigarette packs in the mold box 12 out of the mold box 12 so that the cigarette packs are passed backward.

[0051] like Figure 6 As shown, in this cartoning machine, a flipping mechanism 4 is also provided between the paper feeding mechanism 2 and the packaging mechanism 3. The flipping mechanism 4 includes a flipping wheel 41, which has multiple fixed stations spaced circumferentially. Each fixed station is equipped with a receiving box 43. The flipping wheel 41 rotates around a horizontal axis to flip the receiving box 43. The feeding pusher pushes the cigarette pack in the mold box 12 into the receiving box 43. Then, the receiving box 43 rotates 180° with the flipping wheel 41 to flip the cigarette pack, thereby changing the orientation of the cigarettes and facilitating the subsequent direct packaging of the cigarette pack.

[0052] Furthermore, the flipping mechanism 4 also includes a flipping pusher 42, which is located at the discharge position of the flipping wheel 41. The flipping pusher 42 is configured to push the cigarette pack, which has rotated to the discharge position, out of the receiving box 43. After the cigarette pack rotates 180° with the flipping wheel 41 and is flipped, the cigarette pack is in a horizontal state. At this time, the flipping pusher 42 pushes the cigarette pack out of the receiving box 43, so that the cigarette pack falls directly onto the corresponding station of the packaging mechanism 3, thereby starting the packaging of the cigarette pack.

[0053] like Figure 3 As shown, it is worth noting that the packaging mechanism 3 needs to receive the packaging paper 100 before receiving the cigarette pack. In this embodiment, the paper feeding mechanism 2 also includes a paper feeding conveyor belt 23. One end of the paper feeding conveyor belt 23 is located below the paper box 22, and the other end of the paper feeding conveyor belt 23 is located above the packaging mechanism 3. Pressure rollers 24 are spaced apart on the paper feeding conveyor belt 23, and the packaging paper 100 passes between the paper feeding conveyor belt 23 and the pressure rollers 24.

[0054] The packaging paper 100 group inside the paper box 22 includes multiple packaging paper 100s. Each time the packaging paper 100 is supplied, the bottom packaging paper 100 of the packaging paper 100 group falls onto the paper supply conveyor belt 23 and is transported to the packaging mechanism 3 along with the paper supply conveyor belt 23. The packaging mechanism 3 performs the feeding operation of the packaging paper 100. The pressure roller 24 can ensure the smooth transmission of the packaging paper 100 and also flatten the packaging paper 100.

[0055] like Figure 4As shown, the paper feeding mechanism 2 also includes a dispensing assembly, which includes a dispensing head 25. The dispensing head 25 is positioned above the paper feeding conveyor belt 23 and performs dispensing operations on the packaging paper 100. By dispensing glue to specific locations on the packaging paper 100, the packaging paper 100 can be directly bonded and formed when the packaging mechanism 3 folds the packaging paper 100, eliminating the need for manual glue application and improving packaging efficiency.

[0056] Preferably, the paper feeding mechanism 2 further includes a paper tapping assembly, which includes a pressure plate 26 and a rotating arm. One end of the rotating arm is hinged to the base of the cartoning machine. The pressure plate 26 is located at the end of the rotating arm away from the base. The pressure plate 26 presses the packaging paper 100 located at the end of the paper feeding conveyor belt 23 near the packaging mechanism 3 onto the packaging wheel 31. When the packaging paper 100 moves to the end with the paper feeding conveyor belt 23, the rotating arm rotates downward, allowing the pressure plate 26 to press the packaging paper 100 onto the packaging wheel 31, while also pre-bending the packaging paper 100, reducing one process and improving efficiency.

[0057] To improve efficiency, in this embodiment, two groups of cigarettes are packaged as a group, that is, the two groups of cigarettes are fed, paper is fed and packaged at the same time. Therefore, the material feeding mechanism 1 has two rejection pushers 13 and two second detection pieces 14, the paper feeding mechanism 2 has two paper boxes 22, and each station on the packaging wheel 31 has two.

[0058] like Figure 5 As shown, the packaging wheel 31 has eight workstations. The packaging wheel 31 rotates 45° each time. One of the workstations is an empty workstation h. Starting from the empty workstation h, along the rotation direction of the packaging wheel 31, the other workstations are, in order, the paper-patting workstation a, the flaring workstation b, the smoke-in workstation c, the first folding workstation d, the second folding workstation e, the third folding workstation f, and the output workstation g.

[0059] Among them, the packaging paper 100 is in a flattened state before entering the paper-feeding station a (e.g. Figure 7 As shown), the paper-feeding station a is used to receive the packaging paper 100 supplied by the paper feeding mechanism 2, and pre-folds the packaging paper 100 by the pressure plate 26 to form a primary folded cigarette pack 200 (as shown). Figure 8 As shown); the flaring station b flares and shapes the inner left fold 101 and inner right fold 102 of the packaging paper 100, so that the inner left fold 101 and inner right fold 102 are open, thereby forming the primary folded cigarette pack 200 into the secondary folded cigarette pack 300 (as shown). Figure 9As shown); in the cigarette feeding station c, the secondary folding cigarette pack 300 can receive the cigarette group pushed out by the flipping pusher 42 of the flipping mechanism 4, and fold the inner left folding corner 101 and the inner right folding corner 102 inward; then the secondary folding cigarette pack 300 is folded in the first folding station d, the second folding station e, and the third folding station f, finally forming the finished cigarette pack 400 (as shown). Figure 10 (As shown); the finished cigarette pack 400 flows to the output station g, completing the output of the finished cigarette pack 400.

[0060] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
