[0026] As Figures 1 - 5 shown, a novel cigarette gun assembly includes a cigarette gun bottom plate 1. Among them, the cigarette gun bottom plate 1 is integrally formed and forms a lower channel 8 for the cigarette rod to pass through, making the formed lower channel 8 smoother, which is beneficial to the smooth forward movement of the cigarette in it, improving the continuity of production. Compared with the split cigarette gun bottom plate 1 in the prior art, it is more convenient for assembly and processing.

[0027] A tobacco tongue 2, a small pressing plate 3, a large pressing plate 5, and a soldering iron 6 are provided along the advancing direction of the cigarette rod. The tobacco tongue 2, the small pressing plate 3, the large pressing plate 5, and the soldering iron 6 are connected to the cigarette gun bottom plate 1 through bolt assemblies, and the tobacco tongue 2, the small pressing plate 3, the large pressing plate 5, and the soldering iron 6 together form an upper channel 7 corresponding to the position of the lower channel 8. As Figure 4 shown, the upper channel 7 and the lower channel 8 together enclose a cigarette forming channel, and cigarette forming is completed in this channel.

[0028] The soldering iron 6 is a single soldering iron, specifically, a single ceramic soldering iron, which is used to quickly dry the overlapping area of the cigarette paper. The overlap is the overlapping and bonding area of the two side edges of the cigarette paper. The single soldering iron extends 420 - 500 mm axially. In this embodiment, the single soldering iron extends 440 mm axially [A1]. On the premise of ensuring the bonding and drying effect of the cigarette paper, on the one hand, the structure of the soldering iron 6 is simplified, and on the other hand, the axial space occupied by the structure of the soldering iron 6 can be effectively shortened, providing sufficient axial installation space for the large pressing plate 3 and the tobacco tongue 2.

[0029] Among them, the large pressing plate 5, the small pressing plate 3, and the tobacco tongue 2 are first extended in length compared with the prior art. The large pressing plate 5 extends 142.5 - 248.5 mm axially. In this embodiment, the large pressing plate 5 extends 180 mm axially. The small pressing plate 3 extends 182 - 362 mm axially. In this embodiment, the small pressing plate 3 extends 250 mm axially; the tobacco tongue 2 extends 83 - 123 mm axially. In this embodiment, the tobacco tongue 2 extends 115 mm axially [A2]. In this way, the bonding area between the cut tobacco and the cigarette paper can be better positioned during cigarette forming.

[0030] As Figure 1 and 3 shown, it also includes a first smoking foam cover 9 and a second smoking foam cover 10. The first smoking foam cover 9 is connected to the cigarette gun bottom plate 1 and is arranged above the upper channel 7. The first smoking foam cover 9 covers the tobacco tongue 2 and the small pressing plate 3. Under the action of negative pressure, the smoking foam is discharged outwards through the first smoking foam cover 9; the second smoking foam cover 10 is connected to the cigarette gun bottom plate 1 through the mounting plate 11 and is arranged below the lower channel 8. The second smoking foam cover 80 is arranged close to the small pressing plate 3. Correspondingly, a through hole corresponding to the position of the second smoking foam cover 10 is opened on the cigarette gun bottom plate 1. Under the action of negative pressure, the smoking foam is discharged outwards through the second smoking foam cover 10. In this way, the smoking foam deposited in the lower channel 8 can be removed in time, which is beneficial to ensuring the quality of cigarette forming.

[0031] As Figure 2 shown, it also includes two dust suction plates 12 arranged on both sides of the upper channel 7 close to the tobacco tongue 2. The two dust suction plates 12 can discharge the smoking foam and floating dust outwards under the action of negative pressure. The two dust suction plates 12 can respectively span the head and tail ends of the tobacco tongue 2. In this way, the key area where the smoking foam is generated can be targeted for cleaning, which is beneficial to improving the cleaning effect of the smoking foam.

[0032] As Figure 2 and 5 shown, the two ends of the lower channel 8 and the upper channel 9 are in a trumpet shape to play a guiding role, which is beneficial to ensuring the continuous and stable progress of the production process. In addition, the cigarette gun bottom plate 1, the tobacco tongue 2, the small pressing plate 3, and the large pressing plate 5 are made of metal materials and are provided with coating materials to improve heat resistance and wear resistance.

[0033] Working process

[0034] Cigarette paper is laid in the lower groove 8. During operation, tobacco is transported into a channel formed by the lower groove 8 and the upper groove 7. The tobacco is located in the cigarette paper, and the cigarette paper drives the tobacco to move forward along the channel. During the process of passing through the small pressing plate 3 and the large pressing plate 5, the two edges of the cigarette paper are coated with glue, and the opening of the cigarette paper is pressed by the upper groove 7 to form a cigarette. The glue on the cigarette is dried by a single soldering iron to form the cigarette. The axial length of the small pressing plate 3, the large pressing plate 5 and the cigarette tongue 2 is extended, which can make the forming process more stable and is conducive to improving the SD value and roundness of the cigarette circumference.

[0035] The present invention is described above by way of examples, but the present invention is not limited to the above specific embodiments, and any changes or modifications based on the present invention belong to the scope of protection required by the present invention.
