[0040] It should be noted that the carton paper stack is in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, and the carton paper stack includes kraft paper and a plurality of carton papers. The kraft paper is wrapped around the periphery of the paper stack formed by the plurality of carton papers to form a protective outer layer. In the length direction of the carton paper stack, the kraft paper is located between the two ends of the carton paper stack, and the kraft paper is usually fixed by sealing with adhesive tape.

[0041] As Figs. 1-3As shown, the cigarette packer carton paper stack carrying and unpacking mechanism comprises a mechanical arm 1, a mounting disc 2, two suction assemblies 3, a cutting assembly 4 and a first detection module 5. The mounting disc 2 is installed on the mechanical arm 1, the mechanical arm 1 can drive the mounting disc 2 to move within a preset range, the two suction assemblies 3 are symmetrically arranged on the side of the mounting disc 2 away from the mechanical arm 1, the cutting assembly 4 is installed on the side of the mounting disc 2 away from the mechanical arm 1, and in the thickness direction of the mounting disc 2, the cutting assembly 4 is located between the two suction assemblies 3, and the first detection module 5 is installed on the mounting disc 2 and used to detect the position of the carton paper stack. By arranging the mechanical arm 1 and the two suction assemblies 3, in use, the first detection module 5 is used to detect the position of the carton paper stack, the mechanical arm 1 is driven to move to the position of the carton paper stack, the two suction assemblies 3 can suck and fix the kraft paper wound on the carton paper stack, the mounting disc 2 and the suction assemblies 3 are driven by the mechanical arm 1 to move within the preset range, so as to transport the carton paper stack to the unpacking position within the preset range, thereby solving the problem of manual carrying. When the carton paper stack is transported to the unpacking position, the cutting assembly 4 can be driven to cut the kraft paper, the suction assembly 3 can be driven to suck the kraft paper, and then the mechanical arm 1 can be driven to carry away the kraft paper from the unpacking position, so as to realize the carrying and unpacking of the carton paper stack, reduce the labor intensity, improve the overall unpacking speed, match the high-speed cigarette packer, ensure the continuity of the cigarette packer, and improve the overall efficiency of the cigarette packer.

[0042] It should be noted that the preset range refers to the range in which the mechanical arm 1 can drive the mounting disc 2, the suction assemblies 3 and the cutting assembly 4 to move, and the position of the carton paper stack and the unpacking position are both within the preset range. The specific range of the preset range can be determined according to actual use requirements, which is not limited in the embodiment.

[0043] Further, as shown in the figure, Fig. 2 The side of the mounting disc 2 away from the cutting assembly 4 is provided with an adapter flange 6, the output end of the mechanical arm 1 is connected with the mounting disc 2 through the adapter flange 6, and the mechanical arm 1 is installed on the base. It can be understood that the adapter flange 6 is arranged to facilitate the connection between the mechanical arm 1 and the mounting disc 2, and the mechanical arm 1 is installed on the base, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the mechanical arm 1. The adapter flange 6 is a structure known in the art, and the specific structure thereof will not be described herein.

[0044] In the embodiment, the first detection module 5 can be a camera, which is used to detect the position of the carton paper stack, so that the mechanical arm 1 drives the suction assemblies 3 to move to the position of the carton paper stack for carrying the carton paper stack.

[0045] Further, as shown in the figure, Fig. 3As shown, each of the two adsorption assemblies 3 comprises a busbar 31 and a plurality of suction cups 32 mounted on the busbar 31 along the length direction of the busbar 31, and the plurality of suction cups 32 are in communication with the airflow channel of the busbar 31. It can be understood that, by arranging the plurality of suction cups 32 in communication with the airflow channel of the busbar 31, the plurality of suction cups 32 can be controlled simultaneously, and when the plurality of suction cups 32 are in contact with the carton paper stack, the plurality of suction cups 32 can be controlled to suck the carton paper stack simultaneously, so as to improve the stability of the carton paper stack during the sucking process and avoid the carton paper stack from falling during the conveying process.

[0046] In the embodiment, the airflow channel of the busbar 31 is in communication with the negative pressure gas circuit of the workshop where the carton paper stack conveying and unpacking mechanism of the cigarette packaging machine is located, so that the suction cup 32 can be adsorbed to the carton paper stack under the action of negative pressure.

[0047] Of course, in other embodiments, the carton paper stack conveying and unpacking mechanism of the cigarette packaging machine can also comprise a vacuum pump and a gas connection pipeline, one end of the gas connection pipeline is in communication with the vacuum pump, and the other end is in communication with the airflow channel of the busbar 31, so that the suction cup 32 can be adsorbed to the carton paper stack under the action of negative pressure.

[0048] Further, the carton paper stack conveying and unpacking mechanism of the cigarette packaging machine further comprises two electromagnetic valves, the two electromagnetic valves are arranged one by one corresponding to the two busbars 31, and the electromagnetic valve is used to control the air flow state of the airflow channel of the corresponding busbar 31. It can be understood that, by arranging the two electromagnetic valves to control the air flow state of the airflow channel of the corresponding busbar 31, the state of the corresponding suction cup 32 of the two busbars 31 can be controlled during use, and the electromagnetic valve can be in communication connection with the control module, that is, the remote control of the electromagnetic valve can be realized, and then the remote control of the suction state of the adsorption assembly 3 can be realized, which is convenient for operation. In the embodiment, the control module is used to control the running state of the entire carton paper stack conveying and unpacking mechanism of the cigarette packaging machine, and the electromagnetic valve and the control module are existing structures, and the specific type thereof meets the actual use requirement, and the embodiment is not limited in detail.

[0049] It can be further conceived that, by arranging the electromagnetic valve, the state of the adsorption assembly 3 can be more accurately controlled, so that the suction cup 32 can adsorb or release the carton paper stack. For example, during the adsorption process, the electromagnetic valve controls the airflow channel of the busbar 31 to be in communication with the vacuum pump or the negative pressure gas circuit for vacuumizing, so that the suction cup 32 can adsorb the carton paper stack, and during the releasing process, the electromagnetic valve switches to connect the airflow channel of the busbar 31 to the atmosphere or an independent low-pressure gas source, so as to destroy the vacuum, so that the suction cup 32 releases the carton paper stack.

[0050] Further, the cutting assembly 4 comprises a support plate 41, a driving member 42 and a cutter 43, the driving member 42 is capable of driving the cutter 43 to reciprocate along the length direction of the support plate 41. Specifically, the support plate 41 is cuboid, the support plate 41 is installed on the mounting disc 2, when the suction assembly 3 suctions the carton paper stack, the length direction of the support plate 41 is parallel to the length direction of the carton paper stack. It can be understood that, by driving the cutter 43 to reciprocate along the length direction of the support plate 41 through the driving member 42, the kraft paper outside the paper stack is cut.

[0051] Specifically, the support plate 41 is provided with a receiving groove along the length direction thereof, the cutting assembly 4 further comprises a cutter seat and a transmission screw rod, the cutter 43 is installed on the cutter seat, the transmission screw rod is rotatably installed on the support plate 41 and penetrates through the receiving groove, the driving member 42 is in transmission connection with the transmission screw rod, the cutter seat is provided with a threaded hole matched with the transmission screw rod, the cutter seat is sleeved on the transmission screw rod and located in the receiving groove, when the transmission screw rod rotates, the cutter seat can be driven to reciprocate along the length direction of the support plate 41. Specifically, the cutter 43 is located at the side of the cutter seat away from the support plate 41, so as to be in contact with the kraft paper. It can be understood that, by setting the transmission screw rod, the driving member 42 is in transmission connection with the transmission screw rod, the cutter seat is provided with the threaded hole matched with the transmission screw rod, when the driving member 42 drives the transmission screw rod to rotate, the cutter seat is matched with the transmission screw rod in screw thread, and the receiving groove limits the cutter seat to move along the length direction of the support plate 41, so as to cut the kraft paper.

[0052] In the embodiment, the cutter 43 protrudes from the plane formed by the plurality of suction cups 32 at the end away from the cutter seat, in other words, when the suction assembly 3 suctions the kraft paper, the cutting end of the cutter 43 is located below the plane formed by the suction assembly 3 suctioning the kraft paper. In this way, when the suction assembly 3 suctions the kraft paper and drives the carton paper stack to move, due to the gravity of the carton paper stack, the kraft paper has a gap from the uppermost carton paper, the cutter 43 is located in the middle of the two suction assemblies 3 and below the two suction assemblies 3, so as to facilitate the cutter 43 to cut the kraft paper without damaging the carton paper. Of course, when cutting the kraft paper, only one suction assembly 3 can be used to suction the kraft paper. In this way, the gap between the kraft paper and the uppermost carton paper is larger, which can further facilitate the cutter 43 to cut the kraft paper without damaging the carton paper.

[0053] Of course, in other embodiments, a linear module can be directly used to drive the cutter 43, the linear module is installed on the support plate 41 to drive the cutter seat and the cutter 43 to move along the length direction of the support plate 41 to cut the kraft paper. The linear module is a prior art, and the specific structure and driving mode thereof will not be described herein.

[0054] Further, in order to improve the flexibility of the cutting assembly 4, and further improve the stability of the adsorption and cutting of the kraft paper, in the embodiment, the cutting assembly 4 further comprises two corresponding adjusting cylinders and two supporting seats, the supporting seats are fixed on the mounting disc 2, the adjusting cylinders are installed on the corresponding supporting seats, the output ends of the two adjusting cylinders are connected with the supporting plate 41, and the distance between the supporting plate 41 and the mounting disc 2 is adjusted, so that the distance between the supporting plate 41, the driving piece 42 and the cutter 43 and the mounting disc 2 is adjusted. When the kraft paper is adsorbed, the supporting plate 41 and the cutter 43 can be kept in a state close to the mounting disc 2, so as to avoid interfering with the adsorption of the kraft paper by the adsorption assembly 3. When the kraft paper is cut, the two adjusting cylinders can be controlled at the same time, so that the supporting plate 41 and the cutter 43 are kept in a state far away from the mounting disc 2, so as to facilitate cutting of the kraft paper.

[0055] In the embodiment, the cigarette packaging machine carton paper stack carrying and unpacking mechanism further comprises a second detection module and a third detection module. The second detection module is used for detecting the position of the kraft paper, and the third detection module is used for detecting the position of the carton paper, so as to further accurately adjust the position of the cutter 43 according to the position of the kraft paper and the carton paper, so as to facilitate cutting of the kraft paper and avoid damaging the carton paper. In the embodiment, the second detection module and the third detection module can be installed on the mounting disc 2, and the second detection module and the third detection module are cameras and are in communication connection with the control module. The specific types of the first detection module, the second detection module and the third detection module are prior art, which can meet the actual use requirements, and the embodiment is not limited in detail.

[0056] Further, the cigarette packaging machine carton paper stack carrying and unpacking mechanism further comprises a waste collection frame (not shown in the figure), and the waste collection frame is arranged in a predetermined range. It can be understood that by arranging the waste collection frame, after the unpacking of the carton paper stack is completed, the cut kraft paper can be placed in the waste collection frame during the movement of the mechanical arm 1, so as to facilitate collection of the kraft paper and avoid affecting the next carrying of the carton paper stack. Moreover, the labor intensity of the workers is reduced, and the automatic degree of the carrying and unpacking of the carton paper stack is improved.

[0057] Further, the cigarette packer carton paper stack carrying and unpacking mechanism comprises a clamping device (not shown in the figure), which is located at an unpacking position and can clamp the clamping portions of the carton paper stack. Specifically, the unpacking position is within a preset range, and the clamping portions of the carton paper stack are located at both ends of the carton paper stack in the length direction. It can be understood that by arranging the clamping device at the unpacking position, when the carton paper stack needs to be unpacked, the clamping device can abut and clamp the clamping portions of the carton paper stack to stabilize the carton paper stack, and at the same time, the mechanical arm 1 can be appropriately moved upward to make the gap between the kraft paper and the uppermost carton paper larger, so as to stably realize the cutting of the kraft paper by the cutter 43 without damaging the carton paper.

[0058] It is further conceivable that after cutting the kraft paper, the clamping of the carton paper stack by the clamping device makes it more convenient to extract the kraft paper, and during the extraction of the kraft paper, the position of the carton paper stack is relatively stable and will not roll over.

[0059] Exemplarily, the clamping device comprises a support and two clamping pieces. The support is vertically arranged and can support the carton paper stack. The movement end of the support can move in the vertical direction. The two clamping pieces are symmetrically arranged along the horizontal direction, and the movement ends of the two clamping pieces can move in the horizontal direction to clamp or release the carton paper stack. It can be understood that the movement end of the support can move in the vertical direction. When the mechanical arm 1 moves the carton paper stack to the unpacking position, the support can support the carton paper stack. At this time, the two clamping pieces symmetrically arranged along the horizontal direction are opposite to the clamping portions at both ends of the carton paper stack, which facilitates the clamping pieces to adhere to and abut against the clamping portions.

[0060] It is further conceivable that after the two clamping pieces abut against the carton paper stack, the movement end of the support can move in the vertical direction to be separated from the carton paper stack, which facilitates the extraction of the kraft paper.

[0061] Further, the clamping device comprises a pushing piece. The movement direction of the pushing piece is perpendicular to the movement direction of the clamping piece and perpendicular to the movement direction of the support. The pushing piece can push the carton paper stack to move. It can be understood that by arranging the pushing piece, after the carrying and unpacking of the carton paper stack are completed, the pushing piece can be used to push the carton paper stack to the next station, avoiding manual participation in the pushing process and saving labor. Of course, in order to facilitate the pushing of the carton paper stack to the next station, after the carrying and unpacking of the carton paper stack are completed, the support can be moved to support the carton paper stack, which facilitates to improve the stability of the pushing.

[0062] The embodiment also provides a cigarette packer carton paper stack carrying and unpacking method, which uses the cigarette packer carton paper stack carrying and unpacking mechanism, can realize carton paper stack carrying and unpacking, reduces labor intensity, improves overall unpacking speed, can match the high-speed running cigarette packer, ensures the continuity of the cigarette packer running, and improves the overall efficiency of the cigarette packer.

[0063] The cigarette packer carton paper stack carrying and unpacking method comprises the following steps:

[0064] S1, driving the mechanical arm 1 to move to the position of the carton paper stack until the two suction assemblies 3 abut against the kraft paper on the carton paper stack, so as to facilitate the alignment of the two suction assemblies 3 and the kraft paper;

[0065] S2, driving the two suction assemblies 3 to suck the kraft paper, and driving the mechanical arm 1 to move the carton paper stack to an unpacking position, so as to realize the carrying of the carton paper stack;

[0066] S3, driving the cutting assembly 4 to cut the kraft paper, and closing one of the suction assemblies 3, so as to realize the cutting of the kraft paper and unpacking;

[0067] S4, driving the mechanical arm 1 to move to the initial position.

[0068] It can be understood that by setting the above step S1, the mechanical arm 1 is driven to move to the position of the carton paper stack until the two suction assemblies 3 abut against the kraft paper on the carton paper stack, so as to facilitate the alignment of the two suction assemblies 3 and the kraft paper on the carton paper stack, thereby improving the success rate of the suction assemblies 3 sucking the kraft paper.

[0069] By setting the above step S2, the two suction assemblies 3 are driven to suck the kraft paper, and the mechanical arm 1 is driven to move the carton paper stack to an unpacking position, so as to realize the carrying of the carton paper stack and prepare for unpacking work.

[0070] By setting the above step S3, the cutting assembly 4 is driven to cut the kraft paper, which can realize the cutting of the kraft paper, and one of the suction assemblies 3 is closed while the other suction assembly 3 remains in the suction state of the kraft paper, so as to facilitate the movement of the mechanical arm 1 and the separation of the kraft paper.

[0071] By setting the above step S4, the mechanical arm 1 is driven to move to the initial position, which facilitates the preparation for the next carrying and unpacking process.

[0072] It is further conceivable that by setting the above steps S1-S4, the two adsorption assemblies 3 can adsorb and fix the kraft paper wound on the carton paper stack, the mechanical arm 1 drives the mounting disc 2 and the adsorption assembly 3 to move in the preset range to transport the carton paper stack to the unpacking position, thereby solving the problem of manual transportation, when the carton paper stack is transported to the unpacking position, the cutting assembly 4 can be driven to cut the kraft paper, and one of the adsorption assemblies 3 is used to adsorb the kraft paper, and then the mechanical arm 1 drives the kraft paper to move away from the unpacking position, so as to realize the transportation and unpacking of the carton paper stack, reduce the labor intensity, improve the overall unpacking speed, and be matched with the high-speed cigarette packaging machine, ensure the continuity of the cigarette packaging machine, and improve the overall efficiency of the cigarette packaging machine.

[0073] Further, step S4 comprises:

[0074] S41, drive the mechanical arm 1 to move to the position of the waste collection frame, so as to move the cut kraft paper to the position of the waste collection frame;

[0075] S42, close the other adsorption assembly 3 to place the cut kraft paper in the waste collection frame;

[0076] S43, drive the mechanical arm 1 to move to the initial position.

[0077] By setting the above steps S41-S43, after completing the transportation and unpacking, the cut kraft paper can be placed in the waste collection frame, without manually collecting the kraft paper after completing the transportation and unpacking of the carton paper stack once, thereby reducing the labor intensity of the workers and facilitating the automation of the transportation and unpacking of the carton paper stack.

[0078] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present application are only examples for clarity, and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present application. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments and substitutions without departing from the scope of the present application. It is not necessary or possible to exhaust all embodiments. Any modification, equivalent substitution and improvement within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present application.
