Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cigarette production, in particular to a chain cleaning device for a shredder. Background Art

[0002] The copper chain of the wire cutter is an important part of the feeding mechanism of the wire cutter. During the working process, the material is between the upper copper chain and the lower copper chain, which exerts a large extrusion force on the material, so the debris and tobacco oil in the material are easy to adhere to the surface of the chain and enter the chain connecting shaft. If the copper chain is too dirty, the tobacco leaves are prone to slip during the conveying process and cause uneven wire cutting width. Moreover, insufficient maintenance of the copper chain will cause the upper and lower copper chains to deviate, the top knife door and the safety pin to be cut off, etc., resulting in frequent shutdowns, affecting the wire cutting quality and work efficiency, and increasing maintenance costs. Therefore, the copper chain needs to be cleaned regularly to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and the wire cutting quality.

[0003] At present, manual cleaning is generally adopted for cleaning copper chain. The cleaning process is: soak the copper chain in hot water and loosen the screw plugs on both sides of the copper chain, then use a hammer and a punch to knock out the stainless steel shaft, and finally use a nylon brush and a wire brush to clean the copper chain and the stainless steel shaft. Due to the heavy weight and many links of the copper chain, manual cleaning of the chain is labor-intensive and takes a long time, so it is difficult to clean the copper chain in a timely and thorough manner.
