Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tobacco production equipment, in particular to a device capable of identifying and detecting tobacco debris. Background Art
[0002] When removing tobacco debris, due to the large volume of tobacco leaves, it is easy for tobacco leaves to carry small debris, which makes the system unable to effectively identify and remove the debris. In a sense, the identification and removal of non-metallic debris after shredding is the last checkpoint for strict control of debris. Most of the industry uses manual work to complete the identification and removal of non-metallic debris in tobacco, and there are few effective cases of the implementation of automated technical solutions. Since the physical indicators of tobacco leaves and tobacco shreds are very different, the morphology of debris before and after cutting is very different. Therefore, directly citing the tobacco spectral impurity removal technology solution to identify and remove debris in tobacco shreds has problems such as large color differences, large physical morphology differences (identification and removal of small targets), difficulty in removal, and low precision. It is urgent to propose a set of identification and removal technology solutions for the characteristics of debris in tobacco shreds after cutting to improve the pertinence, accuracy, efficiency and removal rate of debris identification.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a device capable of identifying and detecting tobacco debris to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0025] As attached Figures 1-2 As shown, the utility model discloses a device capable of identifying and detecting tobacco debris, comprising a transmission mechanism, a debris detection mechanism and a debris removal mechanism; the debris detection mechanism is arranged above the transmission mechanism, and the debris removal mechanism is arranged inside the transmission mechanism;
[0026] The debris detection mechanism includes a support column 11, a synchronous belt 7, a connecting rod 4, a chuck manipulator 2 and an industrial CCD camera 5. The industrial CCD camera 5 can adapt to the requirements of complex industrial environments and can work stably for a long time. The industrial CCD camera 5 is fixed to the lower end of the chuck manipulator 2. The chuck manipulator 2 drives the industrial CCD camera 5 to move and capture tobacco debris. The chuck manipulator 2 is connected to a mechanical arm drive motor 1. The chuck manipulator 2 is connected to the connecting rod 4 through a transmission chain 6. The connecting rod 4 is horizontally arranged above the transmission mechanism, so the chuck manipulator 2 can move laterally relative to the transmission mechanism. The connecting rod 4 is mounted on the synchronous belt 7. When the connecting rod 4 moves on the synchronous belt 7, the chuck manipulator 2 moves longitudinally relative to the transmission mechanism. Therefore, the industrial CCD camera 5 can capture tobacco debris from multiple angles and directions.
[0027] The synchronous belt 7 is welded to the support column 11; there are 4 support columns 11, which are evenly distributed on both sides of the transmission mechanism, and one synchronous belt 7 is arranged on each side of the transmission mechanism. A signal light 3 is arranged on the support column 11 at the rear end of the transmission mechanism to warn when debris is found.
[0028] The debris removal mechanism includes a tipping bucket device 13 and a collection box 12 arranged below the tipping bucket device 13 .
[0029] The transmission mechanism includes a transport line 8 , a transport line driving device 9 and a PLC distribution cabinet 10 . The transport line driving device 9 and the PLC distribution cabinet 10 are both arranged below the transport line 8 .
[0030] A plurality of tipping devices 13 are provided in the middle of the transport line 8. The tipping devices 13 are electrically connected to the PLC power distribution cabinet 10. The PLC power distribution cabinet controls the tipping devices 13 to remove the tobacco shreds containing foreign matter.
[0031] The tipping bucket device 13 includes a tipping bucket 135, a mounting rod 131, a driving motor 132, a front flip rod 133 and a rear flip rod 134. The tipping bucket device 13 is arranged inside the transport line 8 through the mounting rod 131. The tipping bucket 135 is connected to the mounting rod 131 through the front flip rod 133 and the rear flip rod 134. The driving motor 132 is arranged behind the tipping bucket 135. The front flip rod 133 and the rear flip rod 134 change the front and rear heights of the tipping bucket 135 by changing the folding angle, thereby generating leaks on the surface of the transport line 8, allowing tobacco debris to enter the tipping bucket 135 and then enter the collection box 12.
[0032] During the specific implementation process, the chuck manipulator 2 moves laterally on the connecting rod 4 driven by the robot arm drive motor 1, and realizes longitudinal movement through the movement of the connecting rod 4 on the synchronous belt 7, so that the industrial CCD camera 5 captures the tobacco leaves and tobacco shreds on the conveyor line 8 from multiple angles. After accurately identifying and judging them as debris, the PLC distribution cabinet 10 makes the tipping device 13 work. When the debris is transmitted to the area of the tipping device 13, the drive motor 131 drives the front flip rod 133 and the rear flip rod 134 to fold, so that the height of the tipping bucket 135 changes, and the debris enters the inside of the tipping bucket 135 from the leakage holes on the surface of the conveyor line 8. After the single tipping bucket 135 completes the collection, the debris is sent to the collection box 12.
[0033] Therefore, the utility model adopts the above-mentioned device capable of identifying and detecting tobacco debris, which can accurately identify and judge the non-metallic debris contained in the tobacco after cutting and before baking (materials other than normal tobacco are regarded as debris, such as loose tobacco pieces, hairy tobacco, tobacco sticking into blocks, cut rubber, plastic, nylon, foam, paper, rags, feathers, stems, hemp ropes, etc.), and efficiently remove them.
[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that they can still modify or replace the technical solution of the utility model with equivalents, and these modifications or equivalent replacements cannot cause the modified technical solution to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
