[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0031] like Figure 1-Figure 9 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a rapid positioning device for inspecting the grade of barcode symbols of cigarette commodities. In the past, when inspecting the grade of barcode symbols of cigarette rods or cigarette boxes, it was necessary to place the cigarette rods or cigarette boxes on the top of a detector 80. The top of the detector 80 has a detection window. After the cigarette rods or cigarette boxes are placed on the top of the detector 80, the barcode symbols at the bottom of the cigarette rods or cigarette boxes can be scanned and detected by the detection window. During the detection process, the barcode symbols and the detection window need to be aligned in the center to improve the detection accuracy. However, since the barcode symbols are at the bottom of the cigarette rods or cigarette boxes and are not convenient to observe, it takes a lot of time to perform the center alignment. The rapid positioning device of the present application can realize the rapid alignment of the commodity barcode and the detection window on the detector 80 to improve the detection efficiency.

[0032] The rapid positioning device includes a base 90, a first frame 100 and a second frame 200. When testing, the base 90 is installed on the top of the detector 80. A window 91 is provided on the base 90. After the base 90 is installed on the detector 80, the window 91 and the detection window of the detector 80 are in a state of center alignment. The first frame 100 is set on the base 90. A first window 101 is provided on the first frame 100. A first positioning groove 102 is also provided on the first frame 100. The first positioning groove 102 is used to position and accommodate the tobacco rod. The tobacco rod can be oriented with the bar code symbol facing the The first frame 100 is adapted to fit into the first positioning groove 102 in a downward posture, so that the barcode symbol at the bottom of the cigarette rod can be exposed downward through the first window 101. For the installation position of the first frame 100 on the base 90, the exposed barcode symbol is just aligned with the center of the window 91 on the base 90, and is also aligned with the detection window of the detector 80. In this way, after the first frame 100 is installed at the specified position on the base 90, the barcode symbol of the cigarette rod is aligned with the detection window of the detector 80 by directly adapting the cigarette rod to the first positioning groove 102. In this way, the operation is convenient and quick, which is conducive to improving the detection efficiency.

[0033] The second frame 200 is detachably adapted to the first positioning groove 102. The first frame 100 can be placed in the first positioning groove 102 or taken out from the first positioning groove 102. The second frame 200 is also provided with a second window 201, which runs through the second frame 200. The second frame 200 is also provided with a second positioning groove 202, which is used to position and accommodate the cigarette box. When testing, the first frame 100 is installed on the detector 80, and then the second frame 200 is adapted to the first positioning groove 102 on the first frame 100, and then the cigarette box is adapted to be placed in the second positioning groove 202 of the second frame 200 with the bar code symbol facing downward. At this time, the bar code symbol on the cigarette box is aligned with the center of the first window 101, the second window 201 and the window 91 on the base 90, that is, the bar code symbol of the cigarette box is aligned with the center of the detection window of the detector 80, and the positioning is more convenient and quick, which is conducive to improving the detection efficiency.

[0034] Therefore, under the positioning function of the base 90, the first frame 100 and the second frame 200, the first frame 100 can realize the positioning detection of the cigarette rod, and the first frame 100 and the second frame 200 cooperate with each other to realize the positioning detection of the cigarette box, which can effectively improve the detection efficiency.

[0035] Preferably, the first window 101 is a rectangular window that passes through the first frame 100, and the first positioning groove 102 is arranged along the outer peripheral edge of the first window 101. The outer periphery of the second frame 200 can be adapted to the first positioning groove 102 at the periphery of the first window 101, so that the shapes of the first window 101 and the first positioning groove 102 are more adapted to the shape of the tobacco rod, which makes it more convenient to position the tobacco rod, and the adaptation of the second frame 200 and the first positioning groove 102 is also more convenient. In this embodiment, the first positioning groove 102 is formed along the outer periphery of the first window 101, so that the outer periphery of the tobacco rod or the second frame 200 is seated downward in the first positioning groove 102, and the positioning is more accurate.

[0036] In one example, the first window 101 is opened through the first frame 100. When the first frame 100 is placed horizontally, the first window 101 passes through the first frame 100 in the vertical direction. The cross-section of the first window 101 in the horizontal plane is a rectangle. The first positioning groove 102 is enclosed by the outer periphery of the first window 101, and the first positioning groove 102 is formed by the top of the first frame 100 being recessed downward, so that the outer periphery of the first window 101 forms a stepped structure. When the second frame 200 is placed horizontally, the outer cross-section of the second frame 200 is a rectangle, and the width of the second frame 200 is the same as the width of the outer periphery enclosed by the first positioning groove 102. The length of the second frame 200 is smaller than that of the first window 101. When the second frame 200 is placed in the first positioning groove 102, the second frame 200 can slide straightly along the length direction of the first window 101. When the second frame 200 slides to one end of the first window 101 and cannot continue to slide, in this state, the cigarette box is placed in the second positioning groove 202 of the second frame 200, and the barcode symbol at the bottom of the cigarette box can be aligned with the center of the window 91 on the base 90. In this way, one end of the second frame 200 in the length direction can be exposed, which is convenient for the operator to intervene with his fingers and is easy to take out and place.

[0037] The second window 201 is also a rectangular window that passes through the second frame 200. The second positioning groove 202 is arranged along the outer periphery of the second window 201. When the second frame 200 is placed horizontally, the outer peripheral cross-sectional shape of the second positioning groove 202 is adapted to the outer peripheral shape of the cigarette box, so that the positioning of the cigarette box is more convenient and accurate. The second positioning groove 202 is formed by being recessed along the outer periphery of the second window 201. When the second frame 200 is placed horizontally, the second window 201 passes through the second frame 200 in the vertical direction, and the second positioning groove 202 is formed on the outer periphery of the second window 201. The second positioning groove 202 is formed by being recessed downward at the top of the second frame 200, so that the outer periphery of the second window 201 forms a stepped structure, and the positioning of the cigarette box is more stable.

[0038] Preferably, the first frame 100 is detachably disposed on the base 90 to facilitate replacement of components.

[0039] More preferably, a first positioning block 31 is detachably provided on the base 90, and a 90-degree inner angle structure is provided on the first positioning block 31. The first frame 100 and the second frame 200 are removed, and the first positioning block 31 is installed on the base 90. With respect to the position of the first positioning block 31, the cigarette hard box trademark is placed on the base 90 so that the barcode symbol on the cigarette hard box trademark faces downward, and one corner of the cigarette hard box trademark is positioned in the inner angle structure of the first positioning block 31. The corners are aligned to form a positioning for the cigarette hard box. At this time, the barcode symbol on the cigarette hard box trademark can be aligned with the center of the window 91 on the base 90, and then can be aligned with the center of the detection window of the detector 80.

[0040] More preferably, a second positioning block 32 is detachably provided on the base 90, and a 90-degree inner angle structure is provided on the second positioning block 32. The first frame 100, the second frame 200 and the first positioning block 31 are removed, and the second positioning block 32 is installed on the base 90. Regarding the position of the second positioning block 32, after the cigarette soft box trademark is placed on the base 90, the barcode symbol on the cigarette soft box trademark should face downward, and one corner of the cigarette soft box trademark should be positioned in the inner angle structure of the second positioning block 32. The corners are aligned to form a positioning for the cigarette soft box. At this time, the barcode symbol on the cigarette soft box trademark can be aligned with the center of the window 91 on the base 90, and then can be aligned with the center of the detection window of the detector 80.

[0041] More preferably, a third positioning block 33, a fourth positioning block 34 and a card edge 35 are provided on the base 90. In one example, the third positioning block 33 and the base 90 are detachably connected, and the fourth positioning block 34 and the base 90 are detachably connected. The card edge 35 is formed by bending the edge of one side of the base 90 vertically upward. The direction of the card edge 35 is straight, forming a functional structure similar to a positioning ruler. The connecting line of the third positioning block 33 and the fourth positioning block 34 is perpendicular to the direction of the card edge 35. During detection, the first frame 100, the second frame 200, the first positioning block 31 and the second positioning block 32 are all removed, and the third positioning block 33 and the fourth positioning block 34 are installed. For the positions of the third positioning block 33 and the fourth positioning block 34, the cigarette box paper is placed on the base 90 so that The barcode symbol on the cigarette box paper faces downward, so that one side of the cigarette box paper abuts against the third positioning block 33 and the fourth positioning block 34 at the same time, and the other side of the cigarette box paper abuts against the card edge 35, which forms a limit for the cigarette box paper. In this state, the barcode symbol of the cigarette box paper can be aligned with the window 91 on the base 90, and then can also be aligned with the detection window of the detector 80. In this embodiment, abutment surfaces can be set on the third positioning block 33 and the fourth positioning block 34. After the third positioning block 33 and the fourth positioning block 34 are installed on the base 90, the plane where the abutment surface on the third positioning block 33 is located coincides with the plane where the abutment surface on the fourth positioning block 34 is located, and the coincident surface is perpendicular to the direction of the card edge 35. When in use, one side of the cigarette box paper abuts against the two abutment surfaces at the same time, and positioning is more convenient.

[0042] In the above, cigarette rods, cigarette boxes, cigarette hard box trademarks, cigarette soft box trademarks and cigarette rod box paper are all products in the cigarette factory that need to be inspected for bar code symbol levels. According to the size of each product, the positions of the first frame 100, the second frame 200, the first positioning block 31, the second positioning block 32, the third positioning block 33, the fourth positioning block 34 and the clamping edge 35 are determined. By installing different components, detection and positioning of different types of products can be achieved, which greatly improves the applicability of the rapid positioning device. The first frame 100, the first positioning block 31, the second positioning block 32, the third positioning block 33 and the fourth positioning block 34 are all detachably mounted on the base 90 by screws, and the disassembly operation is convenient.
