The detection mechanism A and the coding mechanism B are both horizontally arranged above the conveying mechanism C. The detection mechanism A is located upstream of the coding mechanism B. The industrial computer 10 controls the coordinated work of the detection mechanism A and the coding mechanism B. The detection mechanism A is used to detect the number of recycling marks on the recycling carton. The detection method is to take a photo with a camera and the software judges by image processing. This patent is a structural patent, which discloses the setting of this detection mechanism and the positional relationship between the detection mechanism, the cigarette box and the conveying mechanism.
[0025] The detection mechanism A includes an upper detection mechanism 8, a lower detection mechanism 9 and a detection photoelectric 11. The upper detection mechanism 8 is located above the lower detection mechanism 9. The upper detection mechanism 8 includes an upper detection camera 81 and an upper detection light source 82. The lower detection mechanism 9 includes a lower detection camera 91 and a lower detection light source 92. The recycling carton is located on the conveying mechanism C. The lower detection camera 91 and the lower detection light source 92 are located below the conveying mechanism C to photograph the lower surface of the recycling carton. The detection light source is coordinated with the detection camera, and the detection light source is set on both sides of the detection camera to illuminate the photographing area of the detection camera, so as to facilitate clear images.
[0026] The upper detection camera 81 and the upper detection light source 82 are located above the recycling carton, detect the upper surface of the recycling carton, and use the coding mechanism B to laser code the upper surface of the recycling carton.
[0027] The specific structure of the coding mechanism is introduced in detail below: the coding mechanism includes an X-galvanometer 1, an X-direction reflector 2, a Y-galvanometer 3, a Y-direction reflector 4, a laser 6, an F-θ lens 7 and a computer. The X-direction reflector 2 is arranged vertically below the X-galvanometer 1, the Y-direction reflector 4 is arranged directly in front of the Y-galvanometer 3, and the F-θ lens 7 is located directly below the Y-direction reflector 4. The computer connects the X-galvanometer 1, the Y-galvanometer 3 and the laser 6. The laser 6 emits a laser toward the X-direction reflector 2, and the laser passes through the X-direction reflector 2 to the Y-direction reflector 4, and then to the F-θ lens 7. The laser beam 5 passing through the F-θ lens 7 is laser-coded on the recycling carton. Generally, the coding number is increased by one digit each time it is used, which is used as a record of the number of times used within the enterprise. The coding numbers can be set with a certain pattern by themselves.
[0028] The industrial computer 10 is connected to the upper detection mechanism and the lower detection mechanism to control the actions of the upper detection mechanism and the lower detection mechanism. Usually, the use process of the applicant unit is as follows: the upper detection mechanism is used for photographic detection on the side of the cigarette box, responsible for identifying the logos covered by other cigarette factories, and the lower detection mechanism is used for detection of the laser coding area, responsible for identifying the numbers laser-coded on the internal cigarette box.
[0029] A cover is provided outside the detection mechanism A and the coding mechanism B. The cover has a certain light shielding and dust shielding effect.
[0030] The following is a specific embodiment of the conveying mechanism C: it includes a row of round rollers 13, with gaps reserved between adjacent round rollers 13, and the two ends of the round rollers 13 are rotatably connected to the horizontal frames at the corresponding ends, and a column 14 is vertically arranged below the horizontal frame, and the column 14 stands on the ground; some of the round rollers 13 are provided with motors at the ends, and the distance between adjacent round rollers 13 provided with motors is less than the length of the recycling carton in the conveying direction. Ensure that the recycling carton can run. Adjacent round rollers 13 are convenient for the detection camera to take pictures.
[0031] During the application of the utility model, the software records data and identifies the recycling mark on the recycling carton through the detection mechanism. Each time the recycling carton is recycled, a recycling mark is printed on the recycling carton. The software determines how many recycling marks there are based on graphic analysis, and then the software sets the number of recycling times. When the recycling number is insufficient, it continues to be used, and the downstream process puts a recycling mark on the recycling carton. If the recycling number is reached, that is, the cigarette box has been recycled for the number of times set by the user, then an alarm output is activated to remind the user that the cigarette box cannot be recycled again.
[0032] Based on the above ideal embodiments of the utility model, the relevant staff can make various changes and modifications without deviating from the technical concept of the utility model through the above description. The technical scope of the utility model is not limited to the content of the specification, and its technical scope must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
