[0002] Gas spring is an industrial accessory that can support, buffer, brake, adjust height and angle. It consists of the following parts: pressure cylinder, piston rod, piston, sealing guide sleeve, filler (inert gas or oil-gas mixture). The principle is to fill the closed pressure cylinder with inert gas or oil-gas mixture, so that the pressure in the cavity is several times or dozens of times higher than the atmospheric pressure, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the piston rod is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the piston to generate a pressure difference to achieve the movement of the piston rod. Since gas springs have the advantages of relatively slow speed, small dynamic force change, and easy control, they are commonly used in cigarette making machines.

[0003] However, after working for a long time, the gas spring's elastic force becomes low, the movement fails, and it needs to be replaced frequently. Since the elastic force of the gas spring used in cigarette making machines ranges from a few hundred Newtons to one or two thousand Newtons, it is time-consuming and laborious to replace the gas spring with a larger elastic force. Relying entirely on manual work is not only inefficient, but also prone to danger.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the embodiment of the utility model provides a quick disassembly and assembly tool for a gas spring of a cigarette making device, comprising: a housing 1 and a limiting assembly.

[0029] An installation cavity 11 is disposed inside the housing 1 , and the installation cavity 11 is extended along the length direction of the housing 1 .

[0030] The limiting assembly is used to fix the gas spring 5, and the limiting assembly includes a fixed base 2, a movable base 3 and a rotating rod 4. The first end of the rotating rod 4 is arranged in the installation cavity 11, and the first end of the rotating rod 4 is connected to the movable base 3; the fixed base 2 is arranged at the first end of the shell 1, and the movable base 3 is arranged at the second end of the shell 1. The movable base 3 is slidably connected to the shell 1, and the movable base 3 is connected to the rotating rod 4. The fixed base 2 and the movable base 3 are used to clamp the gas spring 5.

[0031] Specifically, when the rotating rod 4 rotates clockwise, the rotating rod 4 rotates to drive the mobile base 3 to move toward the direction close to the fixed base 2, so that the distance between the fixed base 2 and the mobile base 3 is reduced. When the rotating rod 4 rotates counterclockwise, the rotating rod 4 rotates to drive the mobile base 3 to move away from the fixed base 2, so that the distance between the fixed base 2 and the mobile base 3 is increased.

[0032] It should be noted that the "clockwise rotation" and "counterclockwise rotation" of the rotating rod 4 drives the movable base 3 to "move toward the direction close to the fixed base 2" and "move toward the direction away from the fixed base 2" is only for the convenience of understanding the working principle of the quick disassembly and assembly tool of the gas spring of the utility model. It can also be other forms and does not constitute any limitation on the utility model and its application or use.

[0033] In addition, the connection method between the rotating rod 4 and the movable base 3 can be a threaded connection, a connecting rod connection, or other structural connection methods, which are not limited here.

[0034] When installing the gas spring 5, the operator first rotates the rotating rod 4 clockwise, and the rotation of the rotating rod 4 drives the movable base 3 to move along the length direction of the rotating rod 4, so that the distance between the movable base 3 and the fixed base 2 is equal to the length of the gas spring 5 in the natural state, and the gas spring 5 is placed between the fixed base 2 and the movable base 3; then, the operator rotates the rotating rod 4 counterclockwise to move the movable base 3 toward the fixed base 2 to compress the gas spring 5 to the working length; then, the gas spring 5 is installed on the cigarette making equipment, and then the rotating rod 4 is rotated clockwise to increase the distance between the movable base 3 and the fixed base 2 to remove the quick disassembly and assembly tool of the gas spring 5 of the utility model from the gas spring 5.

[0035] When disassembling the gas spring 5, the operator first rotates the rotating rod 4 counterclockwise to move the movable base 3 toward the fixed base 2, so that the distance between the movable base 3 and the fixed base 2 is slightly larger than the working length of the gas spring 5; then the quick disassembly and assembly tool of the gas spring 5 of the utility model is matched with the gas spring 5 on the cigarette making equipment, so that the gas spring 5 is located between the movable base 3 and the fixed base 2, and then the rotating rod 4 is rotated counterclockwise again to make the distance between the movable base 3 and the fixed base 2 equal to the working length of the gas spring 5, so that the fixed base 2 and the movable base 3 clamp the gas spring 5; then, the operator rotates the rotating rod 4 clockwise, and the rotation of the rotating rod 4 drives the movable base 3 to move along the length direction of the rotating rod 4, so that the distance between the movable base 3 and the fixed base 2 is equal to the length of the gas spring 5 in the natural state; then, the cigarette making equipment releases the fixation of the gas spring 5, and moves the quick disassembly and assembly tool of the gas spring 5 of the utility model to remove the gas spring 5 from the disassembly position of the cigarette making equipment.

[0036] The utility model is provided with a mounting cavity 11 inside the shell 1; and the first end of the rotating rod 4 is arranged in the mounting cavity 11, and the first end of the rotating rod 4 is connected to the movable base 3; the fixed base 2 is arranged at the first end of the shell 1, and the movable base 3 is arranged at the second end of the shell 1, and the movable base 3 is slidably connected to the shell 1. When in use, the operator first rotates the rotating rod 4, and the rotating rod 4 rotates to drive the movable base 3 to move along the length direction of the rotating rod 4, so that the distance between the movable base 3 and the fixed base 2 is equal to the length of the gas spring 5 in the natural state, and the gas spring 5 is placed between the fixed base 2 and the movable base 3; then, the rotating rod 4 is rotated again to move the movable base 3 toward the fixed base 2 to compress the gas spring 5 to the working length; then, the gas spring 5 is installed on the cigarette-making equipment, which avoids the problem of easy harm to the operator when manually installing the gas spring 5, saves time and labor, reduces the labor intensity of the operator, and improves the disassembly and assembly efficiency of the gas spring 5.

[0037] In one embodiment of the quick disassembly and assembly tool for the gas spring of a cigarette making device of the utility model, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the fixed base 2 includes a fixed plate 21 and a first clamping plate 22 . The bottom of the fixed plate 21 is connected to the housing 1 , and the first clamping plate 22 is arranged on the top of the fixed plate 21 .
