Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tobacco machinery, and in particular relates to a waste cigarette screening device. Background Art

[0002] At present, in the production process of cigarette rolling machines, tobacco companies inevitably produce defective cigarettes during the rolling and packaging processes due to equipment startup, shutdown, etc., and this process will produce a large number of defective cigarettes.

[0003] In order to save costs, a common method used to deal with the large number of defective cigarettes produced during the cigarette production process is to recycle the defective cigarettes, separate and recycle the qualified tobacco, and then add the separated tobacco to the tobacco production line for processing and production, so as to reduce the consumption of tobacco in cigarette production.

[0004] After the defective cigarettes leave the production line, they are mostly collected and recycled in a waste cigarette barrel. After recycling, they are manually separated and then added to the silk production line.

[0005] However, when the cigarettes are in the waste cigarette bin, they are mixed and the heads of the cigarettes are facing different directions, which is not conducive to subsequent recycling work. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a waste cigarette screening device, which transmits cigarettes through a first conveyor belt. When the cigarettes pass under a camera mechanism, the camera mechanism photographs the cigarettes, and then inputs the image data into a control terminal, which is processed by a data processing system in the control terminal, so as to analyze the color of the cigarettes within the camera range, and then identify the direction of the cigarettes. Thereafter, according to the program setting, the high-pressure air gun is controlled to blow the corresponding cigarettes in different directions away from the first conveyor belt, so as to ensure that the remaining cigarettes on the first conveyor belt have the same direction, thereby completing the classification of the cigarettes.

[0007] In order to achieve the above technical purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:
