Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cigarette packet conveying, in particular to a cigarette packet converging device. Background Art

[0020] The following will be combined Figure 1-3, a cigarette pack converging device 3 involved in the embodiment of the present application is described in detail. It is worth noting that the following embodiments are only used to explain the present application and do not constitute a limitation of the present application. In order to better explain the present application, the following application is applied to a stacking machine for detailed description.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the cigarette pack converging device 3 is responsible for converging the cigarette packs produced by each hand-pulled machine to the same belt conveyor.

[0022] It is arranged at the end of each branch conveyor line 1, and transfers the cigarette packs on each branch conveyor line 1 to the main conveyor line 2 to complete the merging process. The cigarette pack merging device 3 can be divided into a low-flow merging device and a high-flow merging device.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, it is a low-flow converging device, which is responsible for conveying the cigarette packs output from the low-flow branch conveyor line 1 to the actuator of the main conveyor line 2. It is used for the junction of the branch conveyor line 1 and the main conveyor line 2 where the cigarette packs produced by the hand-pulled machine are output to the small-pack transparent paper packaging machine.

[0024] The low-flow converging device includes a first adapter plate 6, a first cylinder 4 seat, a bearing seat 8, the first cylinder 4, a guide sleeve 10, a guide column 11, and a first push plate 5; the first adapter plate 6 is connected to the branch conveyor line 1 and the main conveyor line 2, and at the same time provides installation support functions for other parts on the cigarette pack converging device 3; the first cylinder 4 seat is installed on the first adapter plate 6; the bearing seat 8 is installed on the first cylinder 4 seat, which is a U-shaped structure design, and the first cylinder 4 is arranged in the middle hollow; the cylinder body of the telescopic end of the first cylinder 4 cooperates with the cylinder body of the first cylinder 4 through a nut to clamp the bearing seat 8; through holes are set at both ends of the bearing seat 8, and guide sleeves 10 are arranged at both ends of the through holes, and the four guide sleeves 10 are positioned by passing the four threaded holes on the bearing seat 8 corresponding to the two through holes through the top screw; a guide column 11 is sleeved in each through hole, and the two guide columns 11 are respectively connected to the two ends of the execution surface of the first push plate 5, providing support and guiding functions for the first push plate 5 connected to the telescopic end of the first cylinder 4.

[0025] The first push plate 5 is an L-shaped structure, with one side being an execution surface and the other side being a blocking surface. The length of the execution surface is shorter than the length of the pushing surface of a single cigarette pack being pushed, and the length of the blocking surface is longer than the telescopic stroke of the first cylinder 4. This is convenient for the first cylinder 4 to drive the first push plate 5 forward to prevent subsequent cigarette packs connected to the pushed cigarette packs from being pushed forward by mistake or being pushed forward, resulting in damage to the cigarette packs or the first cylinder 4 being unable to be retracted. It also includes a first two-position five-way solenoid valve 9, which is responsible for providing the first cylinder 4 with air source control for the extension and contraction of the first cylinder 4.

It is used for outputting the finished cigarette packs of the small package beauty container production to the connection between the downstream branch conveyor line 1 and the main conveyor line 2.

[0027] The high-flow converging device comprises a second adapter plate 15, a second cylinder 12 seat, a slider seat 20, a second cylinder 12, a slider 17, a slide rail 13, a slide rail connecting block 18, a push plate mounting plate 19, and a second push plate 16; the second adapter plate 15 is connected to the branch conveyor line 1 and the main conveyor line 2, and provides a mounting support function for other parts on the cigarette pack converging device 3; the second cylinder 12 seat is mounted on the second adapter plate 15, and provides a mounting support function for other parts on the push assembly; the slider seat 20 is mounted on the second cylinder 12 seat, and the second cylinder 12 is arranged in the middle position on the slider seat 20, and the cylinder body of the second cylinder 12 at the telescopic end is matched with the cylinder body of the second cylinder 12 through a nut. The two slide rails 13 are respectively mounted on the two slide rails 17; the slide rail connecting block 18 is designed as a U-shaped structure, and the hollow part is installed on the side of the slide rail 13 close to the telescopic end of the second cylinder 12; one side of the second push plate mounting plate is connected to the side of the slide rail connecting block 18, and the opposite side is connected to the back of the execution surface of the second push plate 16. The telescopic end of the second cylinder 12 is connected to the middle of the slide rail connecting blocks 18 on both sides of the second push plate mounting plate. The second cylinder 12 is telescopic, and the cooperation of the slide rails 13 and the slide rails 17 on both sides provides the second push plate mounting plate with guiding and supporting functions to prevent the second push plate mounting plate from rotating along the telescopic axis of the second cylinder 12.

[0028] In some embodiments, the second push plate 16 is designed as an L-shaped structure, with one side being an execution surface and the other side being a blocking surface. The length of the execution surface is shorter than the length of the pushing surface of the multiple cigarette packs being pushed, and the length of the blocking surface is longer than the telescopic stroke of the second cylinder 12. This is convenient for the second cylinder 12 to drive the second push plate 16 forward, thereby preventing subsequent cigarette packs connected to the pushed cigarette packs from being pushed forward by mistake, causing damage to the cigarette packs or the second cylinder 12 being unable to be retracted. It also includes a second two-position five-way solenoid valve 21, which is responsible for providing the second cylinder 12 with air source control for the extension and retraction of the second cylinder 12.

[0029] The adapter plate is connected to the bottom of the main conveyor line 2 and the branch conveyor line by screws, the side close to the cylinder seat is connected to the branch conveyor line, and the far end is connected to the main conveyor line 2.

[0030] This utility model patent uses two converging devices, which are arranged on the hand-pulled machine side with a smaller cigarette pack flow and the outlet side of the small-pack transparent paper packaging machine respectively. The diffuse reflection sensors and the corresponding beam sensors of the two sets of devices control the cylinder push timing. The single-pack converging device on the hand-pulled machine side can output 1 box of cigarette packs each time it moves, and the converging device on the small-pack transparent paper packaging machine can output 4 boxes of cigarette packs each time it moves. Every 3 hand-pulled machines are connected to 1 small-pack transparent paper packaging machine. Therefore, this patent can ensure that the service life of the two devices is basically the same, which is convenient for calculating the maintenance cycle of this device. This structure uses guide rods and guide rails to provide a limit function for the cylinder action, which can improve the stability of the cylinder. At the same time, the stability of the cylinder operation can be maintained by replacing the guide rods and guide rails. There is no need to use a double-axis or three-axis cylinder, which increases both the purchase cost and the use cost. This device has a simple structure and is easy to maintain.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
