Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cigarette metering, and more specifically, to a bulk cigarette counting tool. Background Art

[0002] At present, in order to avoid the risk of contamination during the sampling process of loose cigarette samples, the number of loose cigarettes sampled in tobacco industry laboratories is basically counted by approximate estimation, such as counting a large handful, etc., without the support of corresponding measuring tools. As the industry's requirements for quantitative management of sample cigarette assets continue to deepen, the requirements for accurate sampling of loose cigarettes are higher, and the experimental cigarettes have different circumference specifications. In order to accurately count, a set of laboratory-specific measuring tools is urgently needed.

[0021] Various exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangements of components and steps, numerical expressions and numerical values ​​set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention.

[0022] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is in no way intended to limit the present invention, its application, or uses.

[0023] Technologies, methods, and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the technologies, methods, and equipment should be considered as part of the specification.

[0024] In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not limiting. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0025] It should be noted that like reference numerals and letters refer to similar items in the following figures, and therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be further discussed in subsequent figures.

[0026] according to Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a bulk cigarette counting tool, comprising a bottom plate 1 and two side plates 2.

[0027] The bottom plate 1 is arranged horizontally, and the two side plates 2 are respectively connected to the two sides of the bottom plate 1 along the length direction, and are connected to the bottom plate 1 in a symmetrical and inclined state, so that the bottom plate 1 and the two side plates 2 form an inverted isosceles trapezoidal structure; a hollow area 4 is provided on the bottom plate 1 to clean the smoke foam in the bottom plate 1.

[0028] In this embodiment, the bottom plate 1 is designed with a fixed length so as to maintain a proportional relationship with the diameter of the cigarettes, and then the cigarettes are stacked according to the grooves between two adjacent cigarettes. On the premise that the number of cigarettes on the bottom layer has been determined, it is only necessary to read the number of stacked layers of cigarettes in the measuring tool to quickly calculate the number of cigarettes in the measuring tool.

[0029] Furthermore, a sealed baffle 3 is provided on one side of the bottom plate 1 and the two side plates 2, and one end of the cigarettes are stacked against the baffle 3. During implementation, the baffle 3 is used as a reference surface for the ends of the cigarettes, thereby ensuring that the cigarettes are neatly stacked.

[0030] Furthermore, the length of the bottom plate 1 is a positive integer multiple of the diameter of the cigarette, and the number of cigarettes in each layer increases step by step. The number of cigarettes in each layer is one more than the number of cigarettes in the next adjacent layer. In implementation, assuming that the number of cigarettes laid flat in the bottom layer is n, the number of grooves formed by two adjacent cigarettes is n-1. When laying the second layer, the cigarettes will automatically stack into n-1 grooves, but because the two side plates 2 and the bottom plate 1 are inclined, there is a certain gap between the two ends of the second layer of cigarettes and the two side plates 2, and the gap is sufficient to place a cigarette, so the number of cigarettes in the second layer is n+1, and so on, the number of cigarettes in the layer is n+several.

[0031] Furthermore, the connection between the two side panels 2 and the bottom panel 1 is chamfered, and the chamfer angle range is 40°-55°. In implementation, the connection between the bottom panel 1 and the side panels 2 is a smooth curved surface by chamfering, so as to prevent smoke foam from accumulating at the corners, which is difficult to clean.

[0032] Preferably, the chamfer angle ranges from 43° to 47°.

[0033] Furthermore, the length direction of the hollow area 4 is parallel to the length direction of the bottom plate 1. There are two hollow areas 4, and the interval between the two hollow areas 4 is 20.0 mm-30.0 mm. The design of multiple hollow areas 4 reduces the overall weight of the measuring tool, and a hollow area 4 that is large enough can also ensure that the smoke foam falls from the hollow area 4.

[0034] Furthermore, the distance between the end of the hollow area 4 and the two side panels 2 is 15mm, and the width of the hollow area 4 is 3.mm-8.0mm. Since the side panels 2 are arranged in an inclined manner, the force of the cigarettes at the top ends will act on the two ends of the bottom cigarettes through the side panels 2. In order to avoid the cigarettes at the two ends of the bottom layer from being deformed due to the imbalance of the bearing surface caused by the hollow area 4, the hollow area 4 of the utility model is not directly connected to the side panels 2.

[0035] The utility model aims to solve the industry problem of the inability to accurately count loose cigarettes in laboratories. By designing special measuring tools for different circular specifications, the accuracy and convenience of laboratory sampling of samples of different specifications are effectively improved, sample contamination that may be caused by manual precise sampling and asset quantification errors caused by manual estimated sampling are reduced, and relatively fast and accurate laboratory sampling of bulk cigarettes is achieved.

[0036] Although some specific embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail by way of examples, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the above examples are for illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the above embodiments may be modified without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims.
