Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to tobacco production equipment, more specifically to a frame-type frame moving machine for moving cigarette frames. Background Art

[0002] In the traditional packaging, storage and transportation mode, the tobacco leaves after primary baking are mostly packaged and transported in sacks. This storage and transportation method is often accompanied by a large amount of tobacco leaf crushing, oil pressing and other undesirable phenomena that reduce the quality of tobacco leaves. After exploration, the industry now mostly uses steel tobacco frames to store and transport raw tobacco. This improvement effectively reduces unnecessary tobacco leaf loss and increases the transportation rate of raw tobacco. However, the cost of steel tobacco frame modification and re-purchase by redrying enterprises should not be underestimated.

[0003] At present, domestic public patents on cigarette frame equipment are mostly focused on how to improve the convenience of using, stacking and storing cigarette baskets. For example, patent (CN209160278U) discloses a slow-release folding device for original cigarette frames, which effectively saves space for stacking and storing cigarette frames. Patent (CN117104896A) discloses a conveying device mainly including a mechanical arm and a lifting mechanism, which realizes the automatic opening, closing, stacking and unstacking of cigarette frames, effectively reducing the use of manpower and improving work efficiency. However, there is currently no feasible solution to the problem of how to effectively solve the high cost of cigarette frame modification and re-purchase in re-roasting enterprises. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model proposes a frame-type frame moving machine for moving cigarette frames, which provides a feasible solution with a new idea for redrying enterprises in the tobacco industry when upgrading and transforming production lines, thereby saving the high cost of batch cigarette frame transformation and re-purchase.

It is provided with a pair of telescopic pressing plates that can be reciprocally linearly displaced along the Z direction between the highest position and the lowest position of the pressing plate and can be telescoped along the Y direction by the pressing plate telescoping mechanism. It is also provided with a pair of clamping mechanisms. The pair of telescopic pressing plates can be switched to the waiting position or the cigarette pressing position through the driving of the pressing plate lifting mechanism and the pressing plate telescoping mechanism. When in the waiting position, they retract away from each other along the Y direction and are at the highest position of the pressing plate along the Z direction;

[0011] The empty cigarette frame after the transfer of the raw cigarettes is clamped by the rotating frame and returns to the receiving position together with the rotating frame through the respective driving of the frame lifting mechanism, the traveling mechanism, and the rotating mechanism. The clamping is released through a pair of clamping mechanisms, and it is disengaged from the rotating frame.

[0012] The corresponding structural features of the present utility model also lie in:

[0015] The rotating frame sequentially includes two layers of frames from outside to inside, namely an outer frame body and an inner frame body, with a spacing reserved between them; as a whole, it is suspended on the traveling mechanism by the outer frame body through a frame lifting mechanism; the inner frame body is clamped within the outer frame body by a pair of the rotating mechanisms symmetrically arranged on both sides of the outer frame body in the Y direction, forming a Z-direction through space and serving as a cigarette frame accommodating area, and can cover the periphery of the cigarette frame in the receiving position through the cigarette frame accommodating area. A pair of telescopic pressing plates symmetrically arranged in the Y direction are suspended by a pair of pressing plate lifting mechanisms at the top inside the inner frame body, and a pressing plate telescopic mechanism is correspondingly configured for each of the pair of telescopic pressing plates. A pair of clamping mechanisms are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the inner frame body in the X direction.

[0044] The rotating frame 4 as a whole is driven by the traveling mechanism 1 to be able to reciprocate and translate along the X direction between the upper part of the receiving position and the upper part of the turnover position, driven by the frame lifting mechanism 3 to be able to reciprocate and translate along the Z direction between the highest position and the lowest position of the frame, and driven by the rotating mechanism 2 to be able to rotate around the central axis of the Y direction. A pair of retractable pressing plates 63 are provided, which are driven by the pressing plate lifting mechanism 61 to be able to reciprocate and translate along the Z direction between the highest position and the lowest position of the pressing plate, and are driven by the pressing plate retractable mechanism 62 to be able to be retracted along the Y direction. A pair of clamping mechanisms 5 are also provided. The pair of retractable pressing plates 63 can be switched to the waiting position or the smoke pressing position by the driving of the pressing plate lifting mechanism 61 and the pressing plate retractable mechanism 62. When in the waiting position, they retract in opposite directions along the Y direction and are in the highest position of the pressing plate along the Z direction.

[0045] The rotating frame 4 at the highest position of the frame can be translated as a whole to the top of the receiving position through the traveling mechanism 1, and driven by the frame lifting mechanism 3 to descend to the lowest position of the frame along the Z direction, and is arranged outside the cigarette frame 9. It can be clamped on both sides of the frame of the cigarette frame 9 in the XY plane in a mutually opposite manner through a pair of clamping mechanisms 5. The pair of telescopic pressing plates 63 are driven to descend to the lowest position of the pressing plates through the pressing plate lifting mechanism 61, and are driven to extend toward each other along the Y direction through the pressing plate telescopic mechanism 62, so that the pair of telescopic pressing plates 63 are switched to the cigarette pressing position, and the top of the original cigarette in the cigarette frame 9 directly below is completely covered by the pair of telescopic pressing plates 63 at the cigarette pressing position;

[0046] The rotating frame 4 holding the cigarette frame 9 can be driven by the frame lifting mechanism 3 to be lifted upward along the Z direction to the highest position of the frame, driven by the travel mechanism 1 to be translated to the top of the turnover position, driven by the rotating mechanism 2 to be turned 180° around the Y-axis until the cigarette frame 9 opens downward, driven by the frame lifting mechanism 3 to be moved downward along the Z direction to the turnover frame 7 directly below the cigarette frame 9, driven by the pressure plate lifting mechanism 61 to drive a pair of telescopic pressure plates 63 to move to the highest position of the pressure plates, driven by the pressure plate telescopic mechanism 62 to drive a pair of telescopic pressure plates 63 to retract in opposite directions along the Y direction, so that the pair of telescopic pressure plates 63 are switched to the waiting position, so that the opening end of the cigarette frame 9 is completely exposed, and the original cigarettes in the frame fall into the turnover frame 7 by their own weight;

[0047] After the original cigarette transfer is completed, the empty cigarette frame 9 is clamped by the rotating frame 4, and is driven by the frame lifting mechanism 3, the traveling mechanism 1, and the rotating mechanism 2 together with the rotating frame 4 to return to the receiving position, and is released by a pair of clamping mechanisms 5 to separate from the rotating frame 4.

[0048] In specific implementation, the corresponding structural settings of the frame type frame-shifting machine also include:

[0049] Both the tobacco frame 9 with raw tobacco in the receiving position and the turnover frame 7 are in the shape of a "C" with an upward opening in the longitudinal section along the X direction, open on both sides perpendicular to the Y direction, penetrating along the Y direction, and with foot cups at the four corners of the bottom. The feeding and discharging methods of the turnover frame 7 refer to those of the tobacco frame 9. When the space it is in is not interfered with by the rotating tobacco frame 9, it can be transported by an external AGV. The size specifications and shape of the turnover frame 7 are adapted to be configured in matching with the automatic feeder of the threshing and redrying factory.

[0050] The traveling mechanism 1 is arranged on the frame 8 of the frame type frame-shifting machine, and includes a traveling frame 11, a traveling motor 12, a traveling reduction gear 13, a pair of traveling transmission mechanisms 14, and a pair of traveling slide rail 152 assemblies 15. The traveling motor 12 and the traveling reduction gear 13 are centrally arranged along the Y direction between the pair of traveling transmission mechanisms 14 and the pair of traveling slide rail 152 assemblies 15, and are arranged on the traveling frame 11. Driven by the traveling motor 12 and decelerated by the traveling reduction gear 13, both the pair of traveling transmission mechanisms 14 and the pair of traveling slide rail 152 assemblies 15 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top of the frame 8 along the Y direction. On each side, the traveling transmission mechanism 14 is a gear 142 - rack 141 mechanism. The rack 141 is fixedly laid along the X direction on the top of the frame 8. The wheel shaft of the gear 142 is coaxially directly connected to the output shaft of the traveling reduction gear 13, is supported on the slider 151 of the traveling slide rail 152 assembly 15 through a bearing, and forms a synchronous displacement component with the slider 151. The slide rail 152 of the traveling slide rail 152 assembly 15 is arranged along the X direction on the top of the frame 8, and the slider 151 is arranged on the top of the traveling frame 11 and is in rolling cooperation with the slide rail 152 through a roller 1511. The traveling motor 12 and the traveling reduction gear 13 adopt MS1H3 - 44C15CD - A334R that can precisely control speed and position. When the traveling mechanism 1 drives the rotating frame 4 to displace along the X direction between the receiving position and the turnover position, the in-place signals are detected through a proximity sensor NBB8 - 18GM50 - E2 and a travel switch OMRON D4V - 8108SZ - N. The frame 8 of the frame type frame-shifting machine and the various installation parts between the traveling mechanism 1 and the frame 8 are made of ordinary carbon steel with surface painting. The maximum translational distance of the traveling mechanism 1 back and forth is 2000 mm.

[0051] The rotating frame 4 includes two layers of frames from outside to inside, namely an outer frame body 41 and an inner frame body 42, with a spacing reserved between them; as a whole, it is suspended on the traveling frame 11 of the traveling mechanism 1 by the outer frame body 41 through the frame lifting mechanism 3; the inner frame body 42 is clamped within the outer frame body 41 by a pair of rotating mechanisms 2 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the outer frame body 41 along the Y direction, forming a space that penetrates in the Z direction and serving as a cigarette frame accommodating area 423, and can cover the periphery of the cigarette frame 9 in the receiving position through the cigarette frame accommodating area 423. At the top inside the inner frame body 42, a pair of telescopic pressing plates 63 symmetrically arranged along the Y direction are suspended by a pair of pressing plate lifting mechanisms 61, and a pressing plate telescopic mechanism 62 is correspondingly configured for each of the pair of telescopic pressing plates 63. A pair of clamping mechanisms 5 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the inner frame body 42 along the X direction. Both the outer frame body 41 and the inner frame body 42 are in the shape of a "C"-shaped frame structure. When waiting for the cigarette frame 9 filled with raw tobacco to be sent to the receiving position, the "C"-shaped opening of the middle frame body faces downward, and the inner frame body 42 is in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped frame structure with its long side parallel to the Y direction. X-shaped reinforcing ribs 421 are provided on both sides parallel to the XZ plane, and are divided into three sections of space along the Y direction by two groups of rectangular frame-shaped reinforcing ribs 422. The middle space serves as the above-mentioned cigarette frame accommodating area 423.

[0052] The pressing plate lifting mechanism 61 is a pressing plate lifting cylinder, installed at the top of the inner frame body 42, with the extending direction downward, and the execution end is connected to the telescopic pressing plate 63.

[0053] For each side, the telescopic pressing plate 63 and the supporting pressing plate telescopic mechanism 62 are such that the telescopic pressing plate 63 is segmented along the Y direction, laminated along the Z direction and has a gap.

The pressing plate telescopic mechanism 62 includes a first-level telescopic mechanism 621 and a second-level telescopic mechanism 622. The middle plate section 632 and the inner plate section 633 together can extend or retract along the Y direction relative to the outer plate section 631 through the first-level telescopic mechanism 621 installed between the outer plate section 631 and the middle plate section 632, and the inner plate section 633 can extend or retract along the Y direction relative to the middle plate section 632 through the second-level telescopic mechanism 622 installed between the middle plate section 632 and the inner plate section 633. In the pressing plate telescopic mechanism 62, the first-level telescopic mechanism 621 is a first-level telescopic cylinder, the cylinder is installed on the outer plate section 631, and the execution end is connected to the middle plate section 632. The second-level telescopic mechanism 622 is a second-level telescopic cylinder, the cylinder is installed on the middle plate section 632, and the execution end is connected to the inner plate section 633. When the telescopic pressing plate 63 is in the waiting position, the first-level telescopic cylinder and the second-level telescopic cylinder remain retracted. The telescopic pressing plate 63 is made of ordinary carbon steel with surface painting.

[0054] The clamping mechanism 5 includes a clamping cylinder 51 and a clamping block 52. The clamping blocks 52 of a pair of clamping mechanisms 5 extend or retract in the X direction or towards each other through the matching clamping cylinders 51 to reach the clamping position, or retract away from each other to return to the waiting position. When the rotating frame 4 is at the lowest position of the frame and directly above the receiving position, a pair of clamping blocks 52 at the clamping position clamp the lower ends on both sides of the cigarette frame 9 relatively in the X direction.

[0055] The rotating mechanism 2 includes a rotating motor 21, a rotating speed reducer 22, and a rotating shaft 23. Driven by the rotating motor 21 and decelerated by the rotating speed reducer 22, one end of the rotating shaft 23 is coaxially connected to the output shaft of the rotating speed reducer 22, and the central axis of the shaft body is the above-mentioned Y-direction central axis. The two sides of the rotating frame 4 parallel to the XZ plane are respectively fixedly connected to the other ends of the rotating shafts 23 of a pair of rotating mechanisms 2 in the middle. The rotating motor 21 and the rotating speed reducer 22 adopt MS1H3-44C15CD-A334R that can precisely control speed and position. When rotating 180° around the Y-direction central axis to turn the cigarette frame 9 so that the opening faces upward or downward, the rotation-in-place signal is detected by the proximity sensor NBB8-18GM50-E2 and the travel switch OMRON D4V-8108SZ-N. The outer frame body 41, the middle frame body, and the inner frame body 42 of the rotating frame 4 are made of ordinary carbon steel with surface painting, and the maximum rotating weight of the rotating mechanism 2 is 5000 kg.

[0056] The frame lifting mechanism 3 includes a frame lifting motor 31, a frame lifting speed reducer 32, and a pair of frame lifting transmission mechanisms 33. The frame lifting motor 31 and the frame lifting speed reducer 32 are arranged at the top of the traveling frame 11, and are centrally arranged between a pair of frame lifting transmission mechanisms 33 symmetrically arranged along the Y direction.

[0057] As a common unit logistics method in the tobacco industry, the cigarette frame 9 can be stacked, transported by forklifts, AGVs, etc., which can improve the mechanization and containerization operation level of the primary tobacco logistics, and is more and more widely used in the storage and transportation links of the tobacco industry. Since the cigarette frame 9 is usually made of steel, with a large self-weight and volume, if it involves the upgrading and transformation of the production line, the cost for the batch transformation and re-purchase of the cigarette frame 9 cannot be underestimated, and there has always been no effective solution in the industry. The frame-type cigarette frame transfer machine in this embodiment is designed for this purpose, which is the first in the industry and gives a feasible turnover solution, which can avoid the high cost for the batch transformation or purchase of the cigarette frame 9.

[0058] The following is an application example of this embodiment for reference:

[0059] Step 1: Send the cigarette frame 9 filled with raw tobacco to the receiving position with the opening facing upwards through an external device;

[0060] Step 2: The rotating frame 4 at the highest position of the frame can be integrally translated to directly above the receiving position through the traveling mechanism 1, and then driven by the frame lifting mechanism 3 to descend along the Z direction to the lowest position of the frame, enclosing the cigarette frame 9 within the cigarette frame accommodation area 423;

[0061] Step 3: Keep a pair of telescopic pressing plates 63 in the waiting position, and use a pair of clamping mechanisms 5 to clamp the two sides of the frame body of the cigarette frame 9 facing each other, tightly holding the cigarette frame 9;

[0062] Step 4: Drive a pair of telescopic pressing plates 63 to descend to the lowest position of the pressing plates through the pressing plate lifting mechanism 61, and drive a pair of telescopic pressing plates 63 to extend towards each other along the Y direction through the pressing plate telescopic mechanism 62, so that a pair of telescopic pressing plates 63 switch to the cigarette pressing position, and completely press the top of the raw tobacco in the cigarette frame 9 directly below through a pair of telescopic pressing plates 63 in the cigarette pressing position;

[0063] Step 5: The rotating frame 4 holding the cigarette frame 9 can be driven by the frame lifting mechanism 3 to lift along the Z direction to the highest position of the frame, integrally driven by the traveling mechanism 1 to translate along the X direction to directly above the turnover position, and driven by the rotating mechanism 2 to flip 180° around the Y-axis center line until the opening of the cigarette frame 9 faces downwards;

[0064] Step 6: Drive the rotating frame 4 and the cigarette frame 9 to move downwards along the Z direction together through the frame lifting mechanism 3 until the cigarette frame 9 is placed in the turnover frame 7 directly below. Drive a pair of telescopic pressing plates 63 to move to the highest position of the pressing plates through the pressing plate lifting mechanism 61, and drive a pair of telescopic pressing plates 63 to retract away from each other along the Y direction through the pressing plate telescopic mechanism 62, so that a pair of telescopic pressing plates 63 switch to the waiting position, completely expose the open end of the cigarette frame 9, and the raw tobacco in the frame falls into the turnover frame 7 by its own weight;

[0065] Step 7: Drive the rotating frame 4 and the empty cigarette frame 9 to lift along the Z direction to the highest position of the frame together through the frame lifting mechanism 3, drive it to flip 180° around the Y-axis center line through the rotating mechanism 2 until the opening of the cigarette frame 9 faces upwards, and drive it to translate to directly above the receiving position through the traveling mechanism 1;

[0066] Step 8: The rotating frame 4 holding the empty cigarette frame 9 is driven by the frame lifting mechanism 3 to move downwards along the Z direction to the lowest position of the frame, and a pair of clamping mechanisms 5 release the clamping and release the empty cigarette frame 9. After that, the rotating frame 4 is driven by the frame lifting mechanism 3 to lift along the Z direction to the highest position of the frame again; thus, the entire frame transfer process is completed.

[0067] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
