[0032] The detection component 3 includes a detection camera 31, a first detection optical fiber 32 and a second detection optical fiber 33. The first detection optical fiber 32 and the second detection optical fiber 33 are both electrically connected to the detection camera 31. The first detection optical fiber 32 is used to detect that the pusher 12 moves to the initial position and transmits a start signal to the detection camera 31. The second detection optical fiber 33 is used to detect whether there is aluminum foil 23 between the packaging wheel 21 and the cigarette clamp 13, and together with the first detection optical fiber 32, controls the detection camera 31 to start or stop working.
[0033] Specifically, when the second detection optical fiber 33 detects the presence of the aluminum foil 23 between the packaging wheel 21 and the cigarette clamp 13, and the first detection optical fiber 32 detects that the pusher 12 moves to the initial position, the first detection optical fiber 32 and the second detection optical fiber 33 simultaneously transmit signals to the detection camera 31, and the detection camera 31 takes a picture of the cigarette.

[0037] It should be noted that there may be one or more detection cameras 31 , and the number of detection cameras 31 is not limited herein.
[0038] When in use, when the mold box 11 drives the cigarette to move to the cigarette clamp 13, the pusher 12 pushes the cigarette onto the cigarette clamp 13, and the cigarette clamp 13 clamps the cigarette. At this time, the first detection optical fiber 32 detects that the pusher 12 moves to the initial position, and the second detection optical fiber 33 detects that there is aluminum foil 23 between the packaging wheel 21 and the cigarette clamp 13. The first detection optical fiber 32 and the second detection optical fiber 33 both transmit a start signal to the detection camera 31, and the detection camera 31 takes a picture of the cigarette.
