Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tobacco processing equipment, in particular to a cigarette rod shaping mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Long cigarette strips are wrapped with a layer of transparent plastic on the outer surface to achieve the purpose of moisture-proof. However, when wrapping the transparent plastic, the wrapping may be uneven, resulting in bubbles and bulging, which affects the appearance. In order to improve the packaging quality of the transparent paper on the outer packaging of large cigarette strips, and to address the problem of wrinkles and uneven appearance of the transparent paper on the strips, many domestic manufacturers have added large strip transparent paper cosmetic plastic surgery devices to eliminate the wrinkles of the transparent paper on the strips by ironing.

[0003] However, the cigarette carton shaping devices currently on the market can only iron the partial sides of the cigarette packs. To perform cosmetic shaping on each side, the cigarette carton needs to be turned over. However, during the turning process, the transparent packaging paper is prone to wrinkles of varying degrees, and the shaping effect is not good, and there is still room for improvement.
