Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of cigarette testing equipment, and particularly relates to a full-automatic resistance and weight testing equipment for cigarillos. Background Art
[0002] A cigar is a special tobacco product with various sizes and shapes, which is quite different from cigarettes. The draw resistance of a cigar is one of the important factors for evaluating the sensory quality of cigarillos, reflecting the smoothness of the smoke during cigar burning and being an index that consumers can directly feel when smoking a cigar. An appropriate draw resistance range can not only make the cigar burn smoothly and comfortably, but more importantly, it can highlight the aroma characteristics of each section of the cigar and demonstrate the formula characteristics of the cigar. Therefore, the draw resistance is an important index affecting the quality of cigars, and during the quality determination in the cigar production process, it is necessary to test the draw resistance of each cigar.
[0003] In addition, the weight of each cigar must meet certain standards. If the relevant standards are not met, the product is judged as unqualified. Therefore, weighing the cigar is also an indispensable test in the quality determination of cigarillos.
[0004] Currently, the weight detection and draw resistance test of cigarillos are mostly carried out separately. After one test is completed, it is transferred manually or semi-automatically assisted by a machine to the next test station, and the two test processes cannot be fully automated. In the large-scale detection of cigarillos, it greatly consumes manpower and has a low test efficiency. There is a certain error range in the detection. Summary of the Utility Model

[0030] Embodiment 1
[0031] In a typical embodiment of the present application, a fully automatic cigar draw resistance and weight testing device is provided. As Figures 1-5 shown, it includes an electronic weighing device, a cantilever clamp 4 and a draw resistance clamp. The draw resistance clamp is used to hold the cigar. The cantilever clamp 4 is arranged above the draw resistance clamp. The cantilever clamp 4 includes a clamping end 41 and a connecting end 42. The clamping end 41 is located above the draw resistance clamp, and the connecting end 42 is fixedly connected to the electronic weighing device. The draw resistance clamp is driven by a lifting motor and can move up and down to adjust the height.
[0032] Specifically, as Figure 1 、 2 shown, the device includes a base 1. Three parts are installed on the base 1, namely a weighing instrument 2, a draw resistance testing instrument 3 and a cantilever clamp 4 connecting the weighing instrument and the draw resistance testing instrument. Among them, the weighing instrument 2 includes an electronic weighing device and a weighing bracket 22 for supporting the electronic weighing device. To improve the accuracy of weight detection, in this embodiment, the electronic weighing device uses an electronic balance, which is small in volume, high in accuracy, and can perform data communication. For example, the weighing module WKX203 - 02 of METTLER TOLEDO can meet the high-precision test requirements. As Figure 2 shown, the weighing bracket 22 is installed in the base 1 for supporting the electronic balance. The electronic balance 21 is arranged above the weighing bracket 22. The connecting end 42 of the cantilever clamp is fixedly connected to the electronic balance 21, and the clamping end 41 extends out of the electronic balance for clamping the cigar. When the clamping end clamps the cigar and suspends it, the electronic balance detects the weight change, obtains the weight of the cigar, and can communicate the data to the host computer for data analysis.
[0033] As Figure 1 、 2As shown in the figure, the draw resistance testing instrument 3 includes a draw resistance workbench 31 and a draw resistance fixture. The draw resistance workbench 31 is installed on the base 1, located on the side of the weighing bracket 22, and the surface of the draw resistance workbench 31 is lower than the installation surface of the weighing bracket 22, so as to realize connecting the weighing instrument and the draw resistance testing instrument through the cantilever fixture, and further realize the fully automatic process of weighing and draw resistance testing of cigar cigarettes, greatly improving the testing efficiency of cigars. In this embodiment, the draw resistance fixture is installed on the top of the draw resistance workbench and fixed on the draw resistance workbench. A lifting motor 34 is connected below the draw resistance workbench 31 to realize lifting. Specifically, a lead screw and slide table structure is arranged inside the draw resistance workbench and connected to the lifting motor 34. Driven by the lifting motor, the draw resistance workbench can move linearly in the vertical direction, thereby driving the draw resistance fixture to rise or fall.
[0034] As Figure 1 、 2 shown in the figure, the draw resistance fixture includes a draw resistance lower fixture 33 and a draw resistance upper fixture 32 arranged coaxially. The bottom of the draw resistance lower fixture 33 is fixedly connected to the draw resistance workbench 31, and the top end of the draw resistance lower fixture 33 is inserted and connected to the draw resistance upper fixture 32. The cigar cigarette extends above the draw resistance upper fixture and can be clamped by the cantilever fixture 4. In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the draw resistance lower fixture 33 is smaller than the inner diameter of the draw resistance upper fixture 32. Specifically, the inner diameter of the draw resistance lower fixture is 8 mm, the outer diameter is 48 mm, the inner diameter of the draw resistance upper fixture is 48.5 mm, and the outer diameter is 58.5 mm. The draw resistance lower fixture 33 is inserted into the draw resistance upper fixture 32, and the two are sealed and connected through an O-ring. In addition, latex tubes are arranged inside both the draw resistance lower fixture 33 and the draw resistance upper fixture 32. The latex tubes can expand under the action of positive pressure to clamp both ends of the cigar cigarette. One end of the cigar cigarette in the draw resistance upper fixture is in contact with the atmosphere, and one end in the draw resistance lower fixture is connected to the suction air path. A negative pressure generator is externally connected to the suction air path. During the suction process, the negative pressure generator sucks air in turn through the suction air path, the inner hole of the draw resistance lower fixture, the closed cavity inside the fixture, and the upper end of the cigar cigarette to complete the suction process. Among them, as Figure 1 shown in the figure, a retaining ring 35 is fixed on the side of the draw resistance workbench facing the draw resistance fixture, which is used to clamp the outer ring of the draw resistance lower fixture, thereby fixedly connecting the draw resistance lower fixture to the draw resistance workbench and facilitating disassembly.
[0035] In this embodiment, the cantilever fixture 4 further includes a clamping switch 43. The clamping switch 43 is connected to the linear motor 44. The linear motor 44 drives the clamping switch 43 to move, and then the clamping switch 43 controls the opening and closing of the clamping end 41 to clamp or release the cigar cigarette.
[0036] Specifically, as Figure 1 、 3As shown, the guide rail of the linear motor 44 is fixed on the weighing bracket 22 extending upward, and the sliding part of the linear motor 44 is fixedly connected to the clamping switch 43 below by screws; when the linear motor is started, the sliding part of the linear motor slides along the guide rail, thereby driving the clamping switch to move linearly, close to or away from the clamping end. The linear motor can be an existing product on the market.
[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, the clamping switch 43 is located between the connecting end 42 and the clamping end 41. When the linear motor 44 drives the clamping switch to move toward the clamping end and contact the clamping end 41, the clamping switch can drive the clamping end to open.
[0038] Specifically, Figures 4-5 As shown, the clamping end 41 includes a clamping claw 411, and the clamping claw 411 is connected to a triangular connecting rod structure, and the triangular connecting rod structure includes a spring 414 for controlling the opening and closing of the clamping claw. The triangular connecting rod structure also includes a first connecting rod 412 and a second connecting rod 413, and the first connecting rod 412 and the second connecting rod 413 are hinged, and the two ends of the spring 414 are respectively fixedly connected to the distal ends of the first connecting rod 412 and the second connecting rod 413, and the distal end of the second connecting rod 413 is fixedly connected to the clamping claw 411, and the second connecting rod rotates to drive the clamping claw to open or close.
[0039] When the clamping switch 43 pushes the triangular connecting rod structure forward, the first connecting rod 412 opens to both sides, and the second connecting rod 413 is driven to rotate by the spring 414, and the clamping claw 411 opens, and the cigar to be clamped can be placed or the clamped cigar can be released to the suction resistance clamp. The end of the clamping switch 43 close to the clamping claw is set to a cone, so that the clamping switch can open the first connecting rod 412 closed on both sides only by linear thrust and cone angle. After opening to a certain angle, the tension of the spring 414 will pull the second connecting rods 413 on both sides apart. After completing the clamping claw opening action, the clamping switch 43 returns through the linear motor 44, and the clamping switch is no longer in contact with the triangular connecting rod structure. The triangular connecting rod structure is reset under the rebound action of the spring, driving the clamping claw 411 to close.
[0040] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model can be modified and varied in various ways. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
