Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tobacco manufacturing, in particular to a cigarette pack correction device for a belt conveyor. Background Art
[0002] In the field of cigarette production, the neatness of the arrangement of cigarette packs before slicing has a significant impact on the quality of slicing and the process index requirements of subsequent processes. The size of cigarette packs before slicing is usually set to (length × width × height) 1000 × 680 × 680mm. This design is intended to ensure that cigarette packs can be continuously and stably supplied to the slicer. In the actual production process, the belt conveyor plays a vital role. It is responsible for transporting cigarette packs to the slicer and maintaining a sufficient number of cigarette packs in front of the slicer, usually 5 packs, to ensure the continuity and stability of the production line.
[0003] However, during the process of conveying cigarette packs on the belt conveyor, due to the collision and friction between cigarette packs, some cigarette packs often become skewed. This skewness not only causes the cigarette packs to be arranged unevenly on the belt conveyor, but more importantly, when the skewed cigarette packs enter the slicer, the deviation distance may reach about 200mm, which will directly cause the sliced cigarettes to be skewed and unable to meet the strict uniformity requirements of the three-knife four-slice cigarette process.
[0004] In addition, the skewed cigarette packs may also interfere with the normal operation of the slicer. For example, the skewed cigarette packs may cause the push plate to get stuck, which in turn affects the slicing efficiency and slicing quality of the slicer. At the same time, because the existing equipment lacks effective correction devices before the cigarette packs enter the slicer, manual intervention and adjustment are often required, which not only increases the labor intensity of the operator, but also may cause safety hazards.

[0023] A connecting seat 11 is provided at the top end of the right side wall of the rear support rod 3 , and the right side end of the connecting seat 11 is rotatably connected to the left rear end wall of the baffle 10 through a rotating connection mechanism.
[0024] The rotating connection mechanism includes a support seat 12, a base 13 is provided at the bottom end of the support seat 12, and the upper and lower inner walls of the base 13 are rotatably connected to a round rod 15 through a bearing 14. A cylinder 16 is provided on the outer wall of the round rod 15, and the cylinder 16 is connected to the outer wall of the round rod 15 by interference fit. The outer wall of the cylinder 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the baffle 10 through a connecting rod 17. The hydraulic telescopic cylinder 8 is started by the controller 5, prompting the hydraulic telescopic cylinder 8 to push the pin shaft 9 and the baffle 10 to move inward, and the position of the cigarette pack is corrected by the two baffles 10. When the hydraulic telescopic cylinder 8 pushes the front end of the pin shaft 9 and the baffle 10 to move inward, the rotating connection mechanism facilitates the rear rotation of the baffle 10.
[0025] The outer ring of the bearing 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the base 13 through the bearing seat, and the inner ring of the bearing 14 is connected to the outer wall of the round rod 15 by interference fit. The round rod 15 is fixed by the bearing 14, which facilitates the rotation of the round rod 15 through the bearing 14.
[0026] The controller 5 is electrically connected to the infrared sensor 7 and the hydraulic telescopic cylinder 8. The cigarette pack is monitored in real time through the infrared sensor 7. When it is detected that the cigarette pack flows through the inner side of the baffle 10, the hydraulic telescopic cylinder 8 is started through the controller 5, prompting the hydraulic telescopic cylinder 8 to push the pin shaft 9 and the baffle 10 to move inward, and the position of the cigarette pack is corrected through the two baffles 10.
[0027] According to the personnel in this field, all the electrical parts and components in this case are universal standard parts or components known to the technical personnel in this field, and their structures and principles can be known to the technical personnel through technical manuals or through conventional experimental methods. The models are compatible with this solution and can operate normally. All the electrical parts in this case are connected to the power supply adapted to them through wires, and according to the actual situation, a suitable controller is selected to meet the control requirements. The specific connection and control sequence should refer to the following working principle, and the electrical connection is completed in the working order of each electrical component. The detailed connection means are well-known technologies in this field and will not be explained in the electrical control.

The baffle 10 is placed above the material trough, and the front end of the baffle 10 is placed above the frame of the material trough. The rear end of the baffle 10 is inclined toward the inside of the material trough. The distance between the rear sides of the two baffles 10 is just long enough for cigarette packs to pass through.
[0030] When the belt conveyor transports cigarette packs, the infrared sensor 7 monitors the cigarette packs in real time. When it is detected that the cigarette packs flow through the inner side of the baffle 10, the cigarette packs will be more or less skewed when being transported on the belt conveyor. The hydraulic telescopic cylinder 8 is started by the controller 5, prompting the hydraulic telescopic cylinder 8 to push the pin shaft 9 and the baffle 10 to move inward, and the position of the cigarette pack is corrected by the two baffles 10. When the cigarette packs pass through the inner side of the baffle 10, the baffle 10 moves back and forth, continuously pushing the cigarette packs to the center position of the belt conveyor.
