[0002] Moxa sticks are cylindrical long rolls made of moxa wrapped in cotton paper. Moxa sticks are mainly used for moxibustion. During the processing and production of moxa sticks, one type of moxa stick is packaged in a packaging box, and generally multiple moxa sticks are stacked inside a packaging box. In order to improve packaging efficiency, a packaging device is generally used to assemble the moxa stick and the packaging box;

[0003] Chinese patent authorization announcement number CN219192776U discloses a moxa stick packaging machine, including a packaging frame, the top surface of which is welded with a hopper, and the bottom of the hopper penetrates the packaging frame to open a feeding port; in the utility model, an infrared sensor obliquely installed on the inner wall of the packaging frame can detect whether there is a packaging box, prompting the cylinder to push the baffle to block the feeding port, and prevent the hopper from continuing to feed. Compared with the traditional stacking and collection form of moxa stick packaging equipment, it can perform boxing operations on moxa sticks, which is conducive to the efficient packaging of moxa sticks. The above-mentioned prior art solution has the following shortcomings: the packaging machine mainly realizes the packaging of moxa sticks by automatically dropping the moxa sticks in the hopper into the packaging box, but because the moxa sticks fall directly into the interior of the packaging box, and the internal space of the packaging box is large, it is not easy to ensure that the moxa sticks falling into the interior of the packaging box are in a neatly arranged state, and then there is a certain room for improvement.

[0024] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 The utility model provides an embodiment: an automatic moxa stick packaging device, comprising an operating table 1, a conveyor belt 12 is arranged on one side of the top of the operating table 1, and two oppositely arranged connecting plates 9 are installed on the top of the operating table 1 on one side of the conveyor belt 12, and a trapezoidal hopper 8 is connected between the connecting plates 9;

[0025] The opening width at the bottom end of the trapezoidal hopper 8 is adapted to the diameter of the moxa stick, and the opening length at the bottom end of the trapezoidal hopper 8 is adapted to the length of the moxa stick;

[0026] Specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the special structure of the bottom opening of the trapezoidal hopper 8 is used so that when the trapezoidal hopper 8 is unloading moxa sticks, only one moxa stick can be removed from the unloading port at a time, thereby ensuring stable and orderly unloading;

[0027] An automatic material stacking mechanism is provided at the top of the operating table 1 below the trapezoidal hopper 8 to achieve neat and tight arrangement of moxa sticks;

[0028] The automatic coding mechanism includes a reciprocating screw 2 arranged inside the operating table 1, and a servo motor 5 is installed at one end of the reciprocating screw 2, a guide hole is correspondingly arranged at the top of the operating table 1 above the reciprocating screw 2, a movable sleeve 3 is sleeved on the outside of the reciprocating screw 2, and the top of the movable sleeve 3 extends to the outside of the guide hole and is installed with a U-shaped frame 4, the bottom end of the U-shaped frame 4 is against the top of the operating table 1, and the top ends of both sides of the U-shaped frame 4 are installed with stoppers 6, and the heights of the stoppers 6 and the top ends of the U-shaped frame 4 are both level with the bottom end height of the trapezoidal hopper 8, and a guide pad 7 is arranged at the bottom end of the inside of the U-shaped frame 4;

[0029] The top of the guide pad 7 is provided with an arc-shaped groove, and the grooves are closely connected to each other, and the curvature of the groove is adapted to the curvature of the outer wall of the moxa stick;

[0030] The height of the U-shaped frame 4 is adapted to the diameter of the moxa stick, and the length of the U-shaped frame 4 is less than the spacing between the two connecting plates 9, and the length of the U-shaped frame 4 is greater than the opening length of the bottom end of the trapezoidal hopper 8;

[0031] The U-shaped frame 4 and the stopper 6 form a left-right sliding structure, and the sliding direction is parallel to the transmission direction of the conveyor belt 12;

[0032] Specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, when in use, the U-shaped frame 4 is moved horizontally, so that when the U-shaped frame 4 is below the trapezoidal hopper 8, the moxa sticks can fall onto the guide pad 7 one by one in an orderly manner, and the special structure of the guide pad 7 is used to neatly arrange the moxa sticks on the guide pad 7, and to facilitate the subsequent packaging and feeding of the moxa sticks.

[0033] Two supporting plates 10 are installed on both sides of the top of the operating table 1, and a pushing mechanism 11 is connected between the two supporting plates 10 to facilitate pushing the moxa sticks on the U-shaped frame 4 into the packaging box on the conveyor belt 12. The two groups of supporting plates 10 are respectively located on both sides of the trapezoidal hopper 8;

[0034] The push mechanism 11 includes a guide rod 1104 connected between two support plates 10, and two guide rods 1104 are provided. A slide plate 1102 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 1104, and an L-shaped top rod 1103 is evenly provided at the bottom end of the slide plate 1102. An electric telescopic rod 1101 is installed on the side of the slide plate 1102 away from the conveyor belt 12, and one end of the electric telescopic rod 1101 is connected to one side of the support plate 10;

[0035] One side of the bottom end of the L-shaped top rod 1103 faces the cross-sectional center of the groove on the guide pad 7, and the number of the L-shaped top rods 1103 is the same as the number of the grooves, and the moving direction of the slide plate 1102 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the conveyor belt 12;

[0036] Specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, when in use, the L-shaped top rod 1103 is utilized to generate a pushing force on the moxa stick, so that the moxa stick can move along the guide pad 7 toward the packaging box to achieve a complete packaging operation process.

[0037] Working principle: When the utility model is used, the moxa stick installation length is first placed inside the trapezoidal hopper 8. Due to the structural characteristics of the trapezoidal hopper 8, the moxa stick slides along the inclined surface to the outlet end, and because the size of the outlet end is adapted to the size of a single moxa stick, the moxa sticks can be removed one by one;

[0038] Secondly, in the initial state, the block 6 is placed at the bottom end of the trapezoidal hopper 8 to block the moxa stick, and the servo motor 5 is started to rotate the reciprocating screw rod 2, so that the movable sleeve 3 drives the U-shaped frame 4 to slide horizontally, so as to drive the block 6 to move synchronously, so that the block 6 and the trapezoidal hopper 8 are staggered, so that when the U-shaped frame 4 moves to the bottom end of the trapezoidal hopper 8, the moxa stick falls directly onto the guide pad 7, and as the U-shaped frame 4 continues to move and cooperates with the groove setting of the guide pad 7, the moxa sticks are arranged one by one on the guide pad 7;

[0039] Finally, in this process, the conveyor belt 12 is used to realize the transmission of the packaging box. When the packaging box and the U-shaped frame 4 are both transmitted to the right end of the trapezoidal hopper 8, the block 6 re-blocks the bottom end of the trapezoidal hopper 8, and then the electric telescopic rod 1101 is started to extend, so that the slide plate 1102 slides along the guide rod 1104, so that the L-shaped top rod 1103 moves to the inside of the U-shaped frame 4 and resists against the moxa stick, so that the moxa stick gradually moves along the groove on the guide pad 7 to the inside of the packaging box, so as to realize the neat feeding and packaging of the moxa stick.
