[0050] The present disclosure is described in detail below. In the following paragraphs, different aspects of the embodiments are defined in more detail. Each aspect so defined can be combined with any other aspect or aspects, unless explicitly stated not to be combined. In particular, any feature that is considered to be preferred or advantageous can be combined with one or more other features that are considered to be preferred or advantageous.

[0051] The terms "first", "second", etc. that appear in the present disclosure are only for the convenience of description to distinguish different components with the same name, and do not indicate a sequence or a primary and secondary relationship.

[0052] In the description of the present disclosure, it should be understood that the terms "inside", "outside", "up", "down", "left", "right", "front" or "back" etc. indicating directions or positional relationships are defined based on the push plate seat or the first through hole etc., and are only for the convenience of describing the present disclosure, and do not indicate or imply that the device referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0053] During the research, the inventor found that when the cigarette pack is blocked, the cigarette push plate is subjected to a large force, and the rigid transmission of this force to the cam-link slider mechanism will cause the bearing of the cam-link slider mechanism to fail, causing the cigarette pack to be pushed out; and the above bearing is in the machine box, and it takes a long time to repair and replace. The above situation is more common when packaging products in hard gift boxes, because the hard box is not easy to bend.

[0054] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present disclosure provides a cigarette pushing mechanism for pushing a cigarette pack to move along a first direction x. In some exemplary embodiments, for example Figures 1 to 11 As shown, the smoke pushing mechanism includes:

[0055] Push plate seat 1;

[0056] The cigarette pushing plate 2 is rotatably connected to the pushing plate seat 1 about a rotation axis a, the rotation axis a extends along a second direction y, and the second direction y is perpendicular to the first direction x; and

[0057] The conditional limit assembly 3 is configured to keep the cigarette pushing plate 2 and the push plate seat 1 in an initial state when the cigarette pack pressure applied to the cigarette pushing plate 2 along the first direction x is less than a preset pressure, and to allow the cigarette pushing plate 2 to rotate around the rotation axis a in a direction away from the cigarette pack when the cigarette pack pressure applied to the cigarette pushing plate 2 along the first direction x is not less than a preset pressure.

[0058] Specifically, the push plate seat 1 is located at a position higher than the cigarette pack, and the push plate seat 1 is fixed to the bracket of the cigarette pushing mechanism, and does not contact the cigarette pack during the cigarette pushing process. Specifically, the cigarette pushing plate 2 is located below the push plate seat 1, and is rotatably connected to the push plate seat 1. The cigarette pushing plate 2 is a movable part, which is in direct contact with the cigarette pack during the cigarette pushing process, and plays a role in pushing the cigarette pack to the output channel. Specifically, the push plate seat 1 and the cigarette pushing plate 2 remain in the initial state, which means that the positions of the push plate seat 1 and the cigarette pushing plate 2 are relatively fixed.

[0059] Specifically, along the first direction x, the direction in which the push plate seat 1 and the cigarette push plate 2 approach the cigarette pack is the forward direction, and the direction in which the push plate seat 1 and the cigarette push plate 2 move away from the cigarette pack is the backward direction. Specifically, the conditional limit assembly 3 can play the role of overload protection. When the push plate seat 1 and the cigarette push plate 2 move forward, if the cigarette pack is blocked, when the resistance encountered by the cigarette push plate 2 is greater than the preset pressure, the cigarette push plate 2 rotates backward around the rotation axis a, so that the cigarette push plate 2 automatically disengages when the force is large, which can reduce the cigarette pack pressure on the cigarette push plate 2 along the first direction x, thereby protecting the cigarette pushing mechanism and the internal parts of the cigarette pushing device, improving the safety of the cigarette pushing mechanism, and avoiding the occurrence of cigarette pack pushing failure.

[0060] Optionally, the cigarette pack can be a small box, a strip box, etc., a hard box, a soft box, etc. Optionally, the push plate seat 1 can be constructed in any shape, such as a flat plate, for example, the push plate seat 1 is always located in a plane perpendicular to the first direction x during the reciprocating motion along the first direction x. Optionally, the cigarette push plate 2 is connected to the push plate seat 1 via a rotating shaft 4. Optionally, the preset pressure of the conditional limit assembly 3 is adjustable.

[0061] Optionally, the thickness of the push plate seat 1 along the first direction x can be 20 mm, and two stepped holes can be opened on the side of the push plate seat 1 facing the cigarette pack for installing fixing screws to fix the push plate seat 1 to the bracket of the cigarette pushing mechanism.

[0062] Optionally, a plurality of teeth may be provided at the bottom of the cigarette pushing plate 2 to reduce weight and processing costs while ensuring the cigarette pushing effect. A plurality of circular holes may be provided on the surface of the cigarette pushing plate 2 to reduce weight of the cigarette pushing plate 2 and reduce costs.

[0063] This embodiment designs the cigarette pushing plate structure in sections, and the cigarette pushing plate 2 is rotatably connected to the push plate seat 1 around the rotation axis a. Overload protection is provided by the conditional limit assembly 3, so that the cigarette pushing plate 2 can be automatically disengaged in the event of cigarette pack blockage, reducing the cigarette pack pressure on the cigarette pushing plate 2 along the first direction x, thereby protecting the cigarette pushing mechanism and the internal parts of the cigarette pushing device, improving the safety of the cigarette pushing mechanism, and avoiding the occurrence of cigarette pack pushing failures.

[0064] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in the initial state, the cigarette pushing plate 2 and the pushing plate seat 1 are both located in a plane perpendicular to the first direction x.

[0065] Specifically, the plane perpendicular to the first direction x is the vertical plane. This embodiment ensures that the cigarette pushing plate 2 pushes the cigarette pack along the moving direction of the cigarette pack, thereby improving the cigarette pushing efficiency of the cigarette pushing mechanism by making the cigarette pushing plate 2 and the pushing plate seat 1 in the vertical plane in the initial state.

[0066] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 6As shown, the push plate seat 1 includes a fixing portion 11 and a connecting portion 12, the connecting portion 12 is provided with a groove, the opening of the groove faces the cigarette pushing plate 2, the cigarette pushing plate 2 includes a protruding portion 21 and a cigarette pushing portion 22, the protruding portion 21 protrudes toward the push plate seat 1, the groove and the protruding portion 21 form a concave-convex matching structure, and the cigarette pushing mechanism also includes:

[0067] The rotation axis 4 extends along the second direction y, and the rotation axis 4 is connected between the connecting portion 12 and the protruding portion 21 .

[0068] Optionally, through holes with a diameter of 8 mm and a center of a circle in a line can be processed on both sides of the connecting portion 12 and the protruding portion 21, respectively, for mounting the rotating shaft 4, for example, the rotating shaft 4 can be a pin shaft or a hinge shaft. Optionally, the length of the cigarette pushing plate 2 can be 155 mm, and the height of the cigarette pushing portion 22 of the cigarette pushing plate 2 can be 90 mm.

[0069] This embodiment forms a concave-convex matching structure through the groove and the protrusion 21, which can improve the connection stability between the cigarette pushing plate 2 and the pushing plate seat 1 in the initial state, increase the cigarette pack pressure that the cigarette pushing plate 2 can withstand, and improve the cigarette pushing effect of the cigarette pushing mechanism.

[0070] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the connecting portion 12 is provided with a first through hole 120 extending along the second direction y, the first through hole 120 and the rotating shaft 4 are spaced apart along the third direction z, and the third direction z is perpendicular to the first direction x and the second direction y, and the conditional limit assembly 3 includes:

[0071] The stopper 31 is at least partially disposed in the first through hole 120 and abuts against the side wall of the protruding portion 21;

[0072] An adjusting rod 32 is at least partially disposed in the first through hole 120, and the length of the adjusting rod 32 in the first through hole 120 is adjustable; and

[0073] The elastic member 33 is connected between the adjusting rod 32 and the limiting member 31 , and is configured to apply an elastic force toward the protrusion 21 to the limiting member 31 through elastic deformation, and the magnitude of the elastic force is related to the length of the adjusting rod 32 in the first through hole 120 .

[0074] Specifically, an adjustable overload protection function can be achieved through the combination of the limiter 31, the adjustment rod 32 and the elastic member 33. Specifically, when the cigarette pushing mechanism operates normally, the cigarette pushing plate 2 will not rotate around the rotation axis 4 under the action of the limiter 31 and the elastic force, and the cigarette pack can be pushed out normally. When the cigarette pack is blocked, the cigarette pushing plate 2 encounters resistance when moving forward. When the resistance is greater than the elastic force, the pressure applied by the limiter 31 and the elastic member 33 of the cigarette pushing plate 2 is disengaged backward, which can effectively protect the safety of the internal parts of the device.

[0075] Specifically, by adjusting the length of the adjusting rod 32 in the first through hole 120, the elastic force applied to the stopper 31 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the pressure applied by the stopper 31 to the protrusion 21, and finally achieving the effect of adjusting the preset pressure. Specifically, the length of the adjusting rod 32 in the first through hole 120 can be fixed by adjusting the nut 34.

[0076] Optionally, the stopper 31 may be a sphere, the adjustment rod 32 may be a cylinder, and the elastic member 33 may be a spring. Optionally, the first through hole 120 may be provided on either side of the protrusion 21, which can reduce production costs; or may be provided on both sides of the protrusion 21, which can improve the structural stability of the cigarette pushing plate 2 in the initial state, increase the cigarette pack pressure that the cigarette pushing plate 2 can withstand, and improve the cigarette pushing effect of the cigarette pushing mechanism.

[0077] Optionally, the first through hole 120 may be an M10 screw hole, the limiter 31 may be a steel ball with a diameter of 8 mm, the elastic member 33 may be a compression spring with an outer diameter of 7 mm, the adjusting rod 32 may be an M10 adjusting screw, and the length of the adjusting rod 32 may be 60 mm.

[0078] This embodiment, through the combination of the limit member 31, the adjustment rod 32 and the elastic member 33, has a reliable mechanical connection structure, can realize the adjustable overload protection function of the cigarette pushing mechanism, improve the safety of the cigarette pushing mechanism, and avoid the occurrence of cigarette pack pushing failure.

[0079] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a limiting step 121 is provided at one end of the first through hole 120 close to the protrusion 21, and the limiting step 121 forms a second through hole 122. The size of the second through hole 122 is smaller than that of the first through hole 120. The limiting step 121 is configured to limit the limiting member 31 from disengaging from the first through hole 120 along the second direction y.

[0080] Specifically, the limiting member 31 is limited in the first through hole 120 by the limiting step 121 , and a portion of the limiting member 31 can protrude from the end surface of the connecting portion 12 through the second through hole 122 , so that the limiting member 31 abuts against the side wall of the protruding portion 21 .

[0081] Optionally, to ensure that the steel ball with a diameter of 8 can protrude from the side wall of the connecting portion 12, the thread length of the first through hole can be designed to be 43 mm, and the length of the second through hole 122 can be 3 mm and the diameter can be 7 mm.

[0082] This embodiment limits the limiting member 31 from being separated from the first through hole 120 by the limiting step 121, which can not only realize the overload protection function, but also eliminate the need to reassemble the limiting member 31 after the cigarette pushing plate 2 is disengaged, thereby improving the convenience of using the cigarette pushing mechanism.

[0083] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, a first receiving hole 211 extending along the second direction y is provided on the side wall of the protruding portion 21 , and the limiting member 31 abuts against the first receiving hole 211 .

[0084] Specifically, when the limiting member 31 is a steel ball, the portion of the steel ball protruding from the connecting portion 12 is embedded in the first receiving hole 211 reserved in the protruding portion 21 to fix the cigarette pushing plate 2 so that it will not rotate around the rotating shaft 4 when no overload occurs.

[0085] Specifically, the size of the first receiving hole 211 is smaller than the second through hole 122. Optionally, a first receiving hole 211 with a diameter of 5 mm and a depth of 3 mm is processed below the rotating shaft 4 of the protruding portion 21 for connecting with the protruding stopper 31 on the connecting portion 12 of the push plate seat 1.

[0086] This embodiment can improve the reliability of the limiting member 31 on the cigarette pushing plate 2 by providing the first accommodating hole 211 on the protruding portion 21, ensure that the cigarette pushing plate 2 and the pushing plate seat 1 are in a stable position in the initial state, prevent the cigarette pushing plate 2 from accidentally rotating when the cigarette pack pressure is less than the preset pressure, and improve the reliability of the cigarette pushing mechanism.

[0087] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the first through hole 120 is provided on a side of the rotating shaft 4 away from the fixing portion 11 along the third direction z.

[0088] This embodiment has a first through hole 120 disposed along the third direction z on the side of the rotating shaft 4 away from the fixing portion 11, which can improve the reliability of the limiting member 31 on the cigarette pushing plate 2, ensure the stable positions of the cigarette pushing plate 2 and the pushing plate seat 1 in the initial state, and improve the reliability of the cigarette pushing mechanism.

[0089] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, the end of the adjusting rod 32 close to the elastic member 33 is provided with a second receiving hole 322 extending along the second direction y, and the elastic member 33 is at least partially received in the second receiving hole 322. Optionally, the second receiving hole 322 can be a round hole with a diameter of 7 mm and a depth of 10 mm.

[0090] This embodiment accommodates the elastic member 33 through the second accommodating hole 322, so as to limit the position of the elastic member 33, avoid the elastic member 33 from moving around after being compressed, ensure the reliable transmission of the elastic force of the elastic member 33, and improve the reliability of the cigarette pushing mechanism.

[0091] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the smoke pushing mechanism also includes:

[0092] The cigarette pushing plate detection component 5 is disposed on the pushing plate seat 1 and is configured to stop the cigarette pushing mechanism from moving when it is detected that the cigarette pushing plate 2 rotates around the rotation axis a.

[0093] Specifically, when the resistance encountered by the cigarette pusher plate 2 when moving forward is greater than the preset pressure, the cigarette pusher plate 2 rotates, and the cigarette pusher plate detection component 5 detects that the cigarette pusher plate 2 is disengaged, and sends an electrical signal to automatically shut down the control device. Optionally, the cigarette pusher plate detection component 5 can also send an alarm signal to remind the operator to perform maintenance in time.

[0094] This embodiment detects the rotation of the cigarette pushing plate 2 by means of the cigarette pushing plate detection component 5. When the resistance encountered by the cigarette pushing plate 2 when moving forward is greater than the preset pressure, the cigarette pushing plate 2 is automatically disengaged and the control equipment is automatically shut down, which can effectively protect the cigarette pushing mechanism and the internal parts of the cigarette pushing device, improve the safety of the cigarette pushing mechanism, and avoid the occurrence of cigarette pack pushing failures; it can also prompt the operator to perform maintenance in time, thereby improving the quality and efficiency of cigarette production.

[0095] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a detection unit mounting frame 10 is provided on the push plate seat 1, and the detection unit mounting frame 10 includes:

[0096] A first connecting plate 101 is fixed to the top of the push plate seat 1, and the first connecting plate 101 extends along the second direction y;

[0097] A second connecting plate 102 is provided at one end of the first connecting plate 101 away from the push plate seat 1, and the second connecting plate 102 extends along a third direction z, and the third direction z is perpendicular to the first direction x and the second direction y; and

[0098] The third connecting plate 103 is disposed at one end of the second connecting plate 102 away from the first connecting plate 101 . The third connecting plate 103 extends along the second direction y. The cigarette pushing plate detection component 5 is disposed on the third connecting plate 103 .

[0099] Specifically, the size of the detection part mounting frame 10 is adapted to the push plate seat 1. Optionally, the second connecting plate 102 and the push plate seat 1 are spaced apart along the second direction y.

[0100] Optionally, according to the size of the outer diameter of the selected cigarette pushing plate detection component 5, a matching mounting hole is designed, for example, a through hole with a diameter of 5 mm is processed on the third connecting plate 103 for installing the cigarette pushing plate detection component 5, and an M3 threaded hole is processed on the side of the third connecting plate 103 for fixing the cigarette pushing plate detection component 5.

[0101] The detection unit mounting frame 10 of this embodiment can provide a reliable mounting position for the cigarette pushing plate detection component 5 , thereby improving the accuracy of the cigarette pushing plate detection component 5 in detecting the disengagement of the cigarette pushing plate 2 .

[0102] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the cigarette pushing plate detection component 5 includes a proximity switch, which extends along the third direction z and abuts against the cigarette pushing plate 2.

[0103] This embodiment can ensure the timeliness and accuracy of the cigarette pushing plate 2 detection by the cigarette pushing plate detection component 5 by abutting against the cigarette pushing plate 2 through the proximity switch.

[0104] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the cigarette pushing mechanism also includes a bracket 6, and the bracket 6 includes:

[0105] The fourth plate 604 extends along the first direction x, and the fourth plate 604 is connected to the push plate seat 1;

[0106] A fifth plate 605 connected to an end of the fourth plate 604 away from the push plate seat 1, the fifth plate 605 extends along a third direction z, and the third direction z is perpendicular to the first direction x and the second direction y; and

[0107] The sixth plate 606 is connected to one end of the fifth plate 605 away from the fourth plate 604 . The sixth plate 606 extends along the first direction x. The sixth plate 606 is connected to the output end of the driving mechanism 7 .

[0108] Specifically, the fourth plate 604 is connected to the push plate seat 1 through connecting members such as fixing screws.

[0109] Optionally, the size of the bracket 6 can be designed according to actual application scenarios such as the height of the output channel. For example, two threaded holes with a size of M8 and a depth of 20 mm are processed on the sixth plate 606 to fix the cigarette pushing mechanism to the output end. Optionally, the bracket 6 can also include a reinforcement part 600 to improve structural stability, for example, the reinforcement part can be a triangle.

[0110] The bracket 6 of this embodiment can provide a reliable installation position for the push plate seat 1, thereby improving the reliability of the cigarette pushing action of the cigarette pushing plate 2.

[0115] The cigarette pushing device of this embodiment, by designing the cigarette pushing plate structure in sections, can automatically disengage the cigarette pushing plate 2 in the event of cigarette pack blockage, thereby protecting the internal parts of the driving mechanism 7, improving the safety of the cigarette pushing device, and avoiding the occurrence of cigarette pack pushing failures.

[0116] In addition, the present disclosure also provides a cigarette production system, including the cigarette pushing mechanism of the above embodiment or the cigarette pushing device of the above embodiment.

[0117] Optionally, the cigarette production system may include a YB95A carton transparent paper packaging machine. For example, the YB95A carton transparent paper packaging machine's rod pushing mechanism lifts the finished cigarette rods wrapped in transparent paper to five rods, which are then pushed to the output channel by the cigarette pushing plate 2. Driven by the cam-link slider mechanism, the cigarette pushing plate 2 performs horizontal reciprocating motion along the first direction, continuously pushing the finished cigarette rods to the output channel, thereby completing the cigarette rod output.
