The opening of the arc slide close to the upper conveyor belt is parallel to the upper surface of the conveyor belt, so that the cigarettes can use inertia to slide on the roller without changing their movement posture, avoiding the change of the movement posture of the cigarettes due to the height difference between the roller and the upper surface of the conveyor belt to cause stacking. The cigarettes collide with the inner wall of the arc slide continuously in the slide and then collide with the lower end The inclination angle of the outlet gradually decreases, and the cigarettes reach the next conveyor belt through the horizontal throwing motion at the outlet. The horizontal throwing motion can prevent the cigarettes from piling up on the curved slide and can increase the distance between adjacent cigarettes for subsequent scanning and counting. Since cigarettes are light, it is necessary to repeat the above-mentioned conveyor belt and curved slide processing process for cigarette stacking and movement posture. Finally, after laser scanning and counting, they fall into the container above the transport cart. The separation and counting process does not require human participation, which greatly reduces the workload of the staff and saves manpower and time costs. The laser counting has high accuracy and good practicality and economy. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The top and bottom of the leveling module 2 are hollowed out and three leveling baffles are arranged inside. The lower end opening height of the three leveling baffles gradually decreases along the belt movement direction of the first conveyor belt 3. The end leveling baffle 201 is plugged in and replaced along the radial grooves on both sides of the leveling module 2. When calculating boxed cigarettes, the end leveling baffle with a lower end opening height of 3 cm is used. When calculating strip cigarettes, the end leveling baffle with a lower end opening height of 9 cm is used. The first conveyor belt 3 is located on the inner side of the leveling module 2. The first curved slide 4 has the roller 401 and the gap between the rollers 401 is less than 2 cm. The first curved slide 4 is close to the first conveyor belt 3 port and is connected to the first conveyor belt 3 is parallel to the upper surface of the first arc slide 4, the port of the first arc slide 4 close to the second conveyor belt 5 is higher than the upper surface of the second conveyor belt 5, the first arc slide 4 and the second arc slide 6 have the same structure and are in the same relative position with the conveyor belts at both ends, the cross-section of the first arc slide 4 is rectangular, the height is not less than 9 cm, and the width is the same as the first conveyor belt 3, the second conveyor belt 5 and the third conveyor belt 7, the first arc slide 4 and the second arc slide 6 have the same structure and are in the same relative position with the conveyor belts at both ends, the laser counter 8 is located above the third conveyor belt 7, the running speed of the first conveyor belt 3 is less than the running speed of the second conveyor belt 5, the running speed of the second conveyor belt 5 is less than the running speed of the third conveyor belt 7, the carrying pallet 9 is located at the left end of the third conveyor belt 7, the first conveyor belt 3, the second conveyor belt 5, the third conveyor belt 7 and the laser counter 8 are connected to the electric control box 1.

[0023] The technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present application uses a flattening module to automatically sort the stacked cigarettes by utilizing the friction of the conveyor belt during operation, while ensuring that the boxed or strip-shaped cigarettes do not leak from the side of the conveyor belt. The stacked cigarettes are laid flat on the conveyor belt in a single layer and enter the curved slide. The opening of the curved slide close to the upper conveyor belt is parallel to the upper surface of the conveyor belt, so that the cigarettes can use inertia to slide onto the roller without changing their movement posture, thereby avoiding stacking again due to the change in the movement posture of the cigarettes caused by the height difference between the roller and the upper surface of the conveyor belt. After the cigarettes continuously collide with the inner wall of the curved slide in the slide, the inclination angle with the lower outlet gradually decreases, and they reach the outlet through horizontal throwing motion. On the next conveyor belt, the horizontal throwing motion increases the distance between adjacent cigarettes, which can prevent cigarettes from piling up at the exit of the curved slide and facilitate subsequent scanning and counting. Since boxed cigarettes are lighter, it is necessary to repeat the above-mentioned conveyor belt and curved slide processing process for cigarette stacking and movement posture to achieve the best scanning and counting conditions. Finally, after laser scanning and counting, they fall into the container above the transport cart. The separation and counting process does not require manual participation, which greatly reduces the workload of the staff and saves manpower and time costs. At the same time, the laser counting has high accuracy, which can effectively reduce data recording errors during manual statistics, and has good practicality and economy.

[0024] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, which are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention rather than to limit it. Any modification, improvement, other modification or equivalent replacement made to the technical solution of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field, as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present invention, should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
