[0020] Examples, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a dual-specification fast switching device for packing of air-cushion type packing machine is used for emergency smoke exhaust during the packaging operation of soft-pack cigarettes and hard-pack cigarettes; the device includes an upper cigarette conveyor line 1, a lower cigarette conveyor line 2, an upper push smoke blocking mechanism 3, a lower push smoke blocking mechanism 4, a lower cigarette leakage pipe 5 and a lower cigarette channel 6.
[0021] The upper cigarette conveyor line 1 is arranged directly above the lower cigarette conveyor line 2, and the upper cigarette conveyor line 1 is used to convey hard-pack cigarettes from the packaging machine to the carton sealing machine, and the lower cigarette conveyor line 2 is used to convey soft-pack cigarettes from the packaging machine to the carton sealing machine.

[0023] The upward push smoke blocking mechanism 3 is installed above the upper cigarette conveying line 1, and the upward push smoke blocking mechanism 3 can deliver the hard-pack cigarettes on the upper cigarette conveying line 1 into the upper smoke leakage port 7. The downward push smoke blocking mechanism 4 is installed above the lower cigarette conveying line 2, and the downward push smoke blocking mechanism 4 can deliver the soft-pack cigarettes on the lower cigarette conveying line 2 into the lower smoke leakage port 8.
[0024] The smoke lowering channel 6 is arranged directly below the smoke lowering funnel 5, and the smoke lowering channel 6 includes a fixed side panel 9 and a movable side panel 10 which are arranged opposite to each other, and in the direction of cigarette transport, the distance between the fixed side panel 9 and the movable side panel 10 can be adjusted to realize the air cushion-like buffered drop of soft-pack cigarettes and hard-pack cigarettes.
[0025] The present application adopts a double-layer conveying method for cigarette cartons, and a lower cigarette leakage pipe 5 is arranged on one side of the upper cigarette conveying line 1 and the lower cigarette conveying line 2 in parallel from top to bottom, and an upper cigarette leakage port 7 and a lower cigarette leakage port 8 are arranged on the lower cigarette leakage pipe 5. The upper push smoke blocking mechanism 3 and the lower push smoke blocking mechanism 4 can be controlled to act successively to achieve the alternating discharge of hard-box cigarette cartons on the upper cigarette conveying line 1 and soft-box cigarette cartons on the lower cigarette conveying line 2. By coordinating the adjustment of the spacing between the movable side panel 10 and the fixed side panel 9 of the smoke discharge channel 6, the alternating downward conveying of soft-box cigarette cartons and hard-box cigarette cartons can be achieved to meet the flexible production needs of soft-box cigarettes and hard-box cigarettes.
[0026] It should be noted that the cigarette conveying direction in this embodiment refers to Figure 1 The direction of the arrow in the figure is the moving direction of the cigarette strips on the cigarette conveyor line, and is also the length direction of the cigarette strips in the lower cigarette channel 6.
[0027] In addition, the cigarette conveyor line, the smoke pushing and blocking mechanism and the smoke drain pipe are all existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.
[0028] In a specific embodiment, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the lower smoke channel 6 includes a fixed side panel 9, a movable side panel 10, a mounting frame 11, a distance-adjusting cylinder 12 and a transparent side panel 13, wherein the mounting frame 11 is installed directly below the lower smoke drain pipe 5 in the vertical direction, and the top of the lower smoke channel 6 is connected to the lower smoke drain pipe 5, so as to allow the cigarettes in the lower smoke drain pipe 5 to fall into the inner cavity of the lower smoke channel 6.
[0029] In the direction perpendicular to the cigarette conveying direction, transparent side panels 13 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the mounting frame 11. Figure 2 As shown, transparent side panels 13 are installed on both sides of the mounting frame 11; in the direction of cigarette conveying, the fixed side panel 9 is fixedly installed at one end of the mounting frame 11, and the movable side panel 10 is installed at the other end of the mounting frame 11, and the fixed side panel 9 is located downstream of the movable side panel 10; that is, Figure 1 As shown, the cigarette strips are transported from left to right, the fixed side plate 9 is fixedly mounted on the right end of the mounting frame 11 , and the movable side plate 10 is mounted on the left end of the mounting frame 11 .
[0030] Specifically, the transparent side panel 13, the fixed side panel 9 and the movable side panel 10 are all acrylic panels.
[0031] The cylinder end of the distance adjusting cylinder 12 is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 11, and the piston end of the distance adjusting cylinder 12 is fixedly connected to the movable side plate 10, so that the distance between the movable side plate 10 and the fixed side plate 9 can be adjusted by the extension and contraction of the distance adjusting cylinder 12, that is, the movable side plate 10 is driven to approach the fixed side plate 9 by the extension of the distance adjusting cylinder 12, and the movable side plate 10 is driven to move away from the fixed side plate 9 by the shortening of the distance adjusting cylinder 12, thereby realizing the adjustment of the inner cavity size specifications of the lower smoke channel 6 to meet the different requirements of soft-pack cigarettes and hard-pack cigarettes for the inner cavity size of the lower smoke channel 6.
[0032] Preferably, Figure 1 As shown, the top ends of the fixed side panels 9 and the movable side panels 10 extend vertically into the lower smoke leakage pipe 5, and the fixed side panels 9 and the movable side panels 10 are located on both sides of the upper smoke leakage port 7 and the lower smoke leakage port 8, respectively.
[0033] More preferably, Figure 1 As shown, in the cigarette conveying direction, the downstream end surface of the upper smoke leakage port 7 and the downstream end surface of the lower smoke leakage port 8 are coplanar, and the distance between the downstream end surface of the upper smoke leakage port 7 and the upstream end surface of the fixed side plate 9 is 1mm to 3mm.
[0034] Specifically, the upper smoke leakage port 7 is a rectangular smoke leakage port, and the length dimension of the rectangular smoke leakage port is greater than the length dimension of the hard-pack cigarette carton, and the downstream end face of the upper smoke leakage port 7 refers to the right side of the rectangular smoke leakage port; the lower smoke leakage port 8 is a rectangular smoke leakage port, and the length dimension of the rectangular smoke leakage port is greater than the length dimension of the hard-pack cigarette carton, and the downstream end face of the lower smoke leakage port 8 refers to the right side of the rectangular smoke leakage port; the upstream end face of the fixed side plate 9 refers to the left side face of the fixed side plate 9, so that after the hard-pack cigarette carton passes through the upper smoke leakage port 7 and enters the lower smoke leakage duct 5, the distance between the right end face of the hard-pack cigarette carton and the left side face of the fixed side plate 9 is 2mm to 3mm, and after the soft-pack cigarette carton passes through the lower smoke leakage port 8 and enters the lower smoke leakage duct 5, the distance between the right end face of the soft-pack cigarette carton and the left side face of the fixed side plate 9 is 2mm to 3mm.
[0035] A probe seat 14 for mounting a sensor is provided on one side of the mounting frame 11 ; meanwhile, a handle 15 is connected to the movable side plate 10 .
[0036] The working process of the device of this application is as follows:
[0037] The dimensions of the hard pack cigarettes produced by the factory are: length 282mm × width 89.5mm × height 48mm; the dimensions of the soft pack cigarettes are: length 272.5mm × width 87mm × height 46mm. The difference of about 2mm in the height and width of the cigarettes does not affect the transportation of the lower smoke channel.
[0038] When hard-pack cigarette cartons are stored in a downward direction, the length of the inner cavity of the lower cigarette channel 6 remains unchanged. When soft-pack cigarette cartons are stored in a downward direction, the length of the inner cavity of the lower cigarette channel 6 is adjusted by the movable side plate 10 driven by the distance adjustment cylinder 12, and the length is shortened to ensure the smooth downward storage of soft-pack cigarette cartons. When the storage amount of cigarette cartons triggers the sensor installed on the probe seat 14, the cigarette cartons are released to ensure that the cigarette cartons fall smoothly onto the conveyor belt at the entrance of the carton sealing machine.
[0039] During the production process, when the upper cigarette conveyor line 1 conveys the hard-pack cigarettes to the upper cigarette outlet 7, the upper push smoke blocking mechanism 3 performs a smoke blocking or pushing action according to the control system; when the lower cigarette conveyor line 2 conveys the soft-pack cigarettes to the lower cigarette outlet 8, the lower push smoke blocking mechanism 4 performs a smoke blocking or pushing action according to the control system. The upper and lower layers perform alternate pushing actions in different time periods to ensure that soft-pack cigarettes and hard-pack cigarettes do not mix up or get stuck when entering the lower cigarette channel 6.
[0040] When the cigarette cartons are pushed into the lower cigarette hopper 5 by the cigarette pushing and blocking mechanism, they are collected into the vertical and transparent lower cigarette channel 6, where they can be stored and stacked in an orderly manner. When a certain number of cigarette cartons are stored, the gate at the bottom of the lower cigarette channel 6 will discharge them in an orderly manner, and the discharged cigarette cartons fall onto the horizontal conveyor below and are then sent to the entrance of the horizontal conveyor in front of the carton filling and sealing machine.
[0041] When the hard-box carton sealing machine fails, the upper cigarette conveyor line 1 will convey the hard-box cigarettes to the upper cigarette outlet 7 of the emergency packing machine. After detecting the hard-box cigarettes, the upper push-up smoke blocking mechanism 3 is activated to push the hard-box cigarettes into the lower cigarette channel 6. When the soft-box carton sealing machine fails, the lower cigarette conveyor line 2 will convey the soft-box cigarettes to the lower cigarette outlet 8 of the emergency packing machine. The distance adjustment cylinder 12 of the lower cigarette channel 6 adjusts the inner cavity of the channel to the length indicated by the soft-box cigarettes, and the lower push-up smoke blocking mechanism 4 is activated to push the soft-box cigarettes into the lower cigarette channel 6.
[0042] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following beneficial technical effects:
[0043] The present application adopts a double-layer cigarette pushing and blocking mechanism and a double-layer cigarette carton conveyor line to realize the cigarette feeding sorting of soft-pack cigarette cartons and hard-pack cigarette cartons, and changes the size of the inner cavity of the cigarette feeding channel by extending and retracting the distance-adjusting cylinder of the cigarette feeding channel, thereby realizing the alternating cigarette feeding and conveying of soft-pack cigarette cartons and hard-pack cigarette cartons, so that soft-pack cigarette cartons and hard-pack cigarette cartons can be flexibly produced online at the same time through an emergency packing machine, thereby improving the flexible production capacity of the equipment.
[0044] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention. These improvements and substitutions should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
