[0025] Embodiment 1

[0026] As Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, the present utility model provides an adjustment structure for the cover plate of a filter rod library, including a bottom plate 6 and a cover plate 7. Guide rails 1 are connected to both sides of the bottom plate 6, and both sides of the cover plate 7 are movably connected in the guide rails 1. Filter rods are stored between the bottom plate 6 and the cover plate 7; a stop mechanism for restricting the position of the cover plate 7 on the guide rails 1 is provided on the guide rails 1; according to different specifications of the filter rods, by adjusting the movement of the cover plate 7 on the guide rails 1, the position of the cover plate 7 relative to the bottom plate 6 is adjusted.

[0027] Specifically, both the bottom plate 6 and the cover plate 7 are flat plates. Two identical guide rails 1 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top end of the bottom plate 6. Moving connecting rods 8 that can move on the guide rails 1 are connected to both sides of the top end of the cover plate 7. The connecting rods 8 are inserted into the guide rails 1, and under the action of gravity, the cover plate 7 is in a vertical posture and forms a filter rod library with the vertically oriented bottom plate 6.

[0028] When changing to filter rods of different specifications, for example, smaller-sized filter rods, it is necessary to move the cover plate 7 towards the bottom plate 6. At this time, the connecting rods 8 slide on the guide rails 1 until the cover plate 7 moves to the target position. Then, through the stop mechanism, the position of the cover plate connecting rods 8 on the guide rails 1 is restricted, and further the position of the cover plate 7 relative to the bottom plate 6 is restricted, realizing the adjustment of the cover plate 7 of the filter rod library.

[0029] The filter rods are stored between the cover plate 7 and the bottom plate 6 and are sent out as they are used and fall.

[0030] Embodiment 2

[0031] The guide rail 1 is of a long groove structure and has at least a bottom wall and a top wall. Both sides of the top end of the bottom plate 6 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the guide rail 1. Connecting rods 8 are respectively horizontally connected to both sides of the top end of the cover plate 7, and the connecting rods 8 are slidably arranged between the bottom wall and the top wall of the guide rail 1.

[0032] Specifically, the guide rail 1 is a long groove structure with open side walls and closed surrounding side walls, and has at least a bottom wall and a top wall. It is used for the connecting rod 8 to be inserted between the bottom wall and the top wall as a slider and slide along the bottom wall to change the position of the cover plate 7.

[0033] Embodiment 3

[0034] The stop mechanism includes: adjustment grooves 4 opened on the bottom wall of the guide rail 1, with at least two in number; positioning holes 3 opened on the top wall of the guide rail 1, with the number and position corresponding to those of the adjustment grooves 4; positioning members 2 inserted into the positioning holes 3 to prevent the connecting rods 8 from leaving the adjustment grooves 4. The positioning holes 3 are threaded holes, the positioning members 2 are screws, and the positioning members 2 are threadedly connected to the positioning holes 3. The positioning members 2 do not contact the connecting rods 8.

[0035] Specifically, the connecting rods 8 are round rods, and the adjustment grooves 4 are semi-circular arcs, so that the connecting rods 8 can partially fall into the adjustment grooves 4. Positioning members 2 are arranged on the top wall above the adjustment grooves 4, and the depth of their insertion into the positioning holes 3 can be adjusted. For example, by turning the screws, the depth of their insertion into the threaded holes can be changed, thereby changing the distance between the bottom end of the positioning member 2 and the bottom wall of the guide rail 1.

[0036] When the distance between the positioning member 2 and the bottom wall of the guide rail 1 is greater than the outer diameter of the connecting rod 8, it means that the connecting rod 8 can jump out of the adjustment groove 4, so that the connecting rod 8 can be moved and thus the position of the cover plate 7 can be adjusted;

[0037] When the distance between the positioning member 2 and the bottom wall of the guide rail 1 is less than the outer diameter of the connecting rod 8, but the distance between the positioning member 2 and the bottom of the adjustment slot 4 is greater than the outer diameter of the connecting rod 8, it means that the connecting rod 8 is restricted within the adjustment slot 4 and is restricted upward by the positioning member 2 and thus cannot jump out of the adjustment slot 4. At this time, the position of the cover plate 7 is relatively fixed.

[0038] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the positioning member 2 only needs to prevent the connecting rod 8 from jumping out of the adjustment slot 4, and there is no need to completely contact and lock the connecting rod 8.

[0039] When changing the filter rod specification, unscrew the positioning member 2 (screw), move the cover plate 7 to the corresponding adjustment slot 4, and screw the positioning member 2 into the positioning hole 3 to ensure that the connecting rod 8 cannot jump out of the positioning slot. There are multiple adjustment slots 4, which are preset at different distances from the bottom plate 6 according to different filter rod specifications, such as 120 mm, 100 mm, etc., so as to achieve quick adjustment.

[0040] Embodiment 4

[0041] As Figures 1 - 3 shown, the stop mechanism further includes a disabling slot 5, which is opened on the bottom wall of the guide rail 1. The disabling slot 5 and the adjustment slot 4 are located on both sides of the bottom plate 6 respectively. The connecting rod 8 can rotate within the guide rail 1 to flip the cover plate 7.

[0042] Specifically, in addition, when the filter rod is changed from automatic emission to manual addition, the cover plate 7 is not needed. In the prior art, it is also necessary to climb to a height to disassemble the cover plate 7 of the filter rod library, and the disassembled cover plate 7 of the filter rod library requires a special storage area, which is relatively cumbersome.

[0043] In this embodiment, the connecting rod 8 is a round rod and can slide and rotate within the guide rail 1, so that the cover plate 7 can be flipped relative to the guide rail 1. At this time, loosen the positioning member 2 (screw) until the connecting rod 8 can be removed from the adjustment slot 4. Flip the bottom end of the cover plate 7 180 degrees upward around the top end and then push it into the disabling slot 5. Then flip it 180 degrees again to make the cover plate 7 return to the upright state and be located on the back of the bottom plate 6, so that there is no need to remove the cover plate 7 of the filter rod library, which is more convenient.

[0044] Since the cover plate 7 is hidden on the other side of the bottom plate 6 when it is not in use, the disabling slot 5 and the adjustment slot 4 are respectively arranged on both sides of the bottom plate 6; and the disabling slot 5 can be very close to the bottom plate 6, while the adjustment slot 4 is far from the bottom plate 6. There is no need to set a positioning member 2 on the disabling slot 5 because the bottom plate 6 already has a stop effect on the cover plate 7.

[0045] The working mode and principle of the present utility model:

[0046] (1) When changing the filter rod specification, unscrew the positioning part 2 (screw), move the cover plate 7 to the corresponding positioning groove, and screw the positioning part 2 into the positioning hole 3 so that the connecting rod 8 cannot jump out of the positioning groove. Thus, the distance between the cover plate 7 and the bottom plate 6 of the filter rod magazine can be quickly adjusted to be slightly larger than the length of the filter rod, without the need for working at heights. As Figure 1 shown.

[0047] (2) When the filter rod is changed from automatic emission to manual addition, the cover plate 7 is not required. At this time, loosen the positioning part 2 (screw) until the connecting rod 8 can be removed from the adjustment groove 4. After turning the bottom end of the cover plate 7 upwards by 180 degrees around the top end and inverting it, push it to the deactivation groove 5, and then turn it 180 degrees again so that the cover plate 7 returns to the vertical state and is located at the back of the bottom plate 6. The time for working at heights can be shortened. As Figure 2 shown.

[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
