When the horizontal cigarette packaging box is conveyed through the conveying track and moves to the bottom of the rotating support frame, the conveying track stops conveying and waits for subsequent turning operations. When the turning operation starts, the lifting clamping plates at the bottom are lowered to both sides of the packaging box, and then the clamping mechanism moves the two lifting clamping plates towards the middle, thereby driving the lifting clamping plates to clamp towards the middle to clamp the packaging box. As the lifting clamping plates move upward, the rotating mechanism at the top drives the rotating support frame to rotate 90 degrees to complete the turning operation of the packaging box. After the turning operation is completed, the lifting clamping plates descend to make the packaging box fall back onto the conveying track again, and the clamping mechanism separates the lifting clamping plates, waiting for the subsequent conveying track to move the turned packaging box backward. This device adopts automated operation, improves the turning efficiency of the packaging box, and reduces labor costs.

In the middle of the top surface of the sliding plate, there is a second air cylinder. The bottom of the second air cylinder is connected to a second sliding column. The bottoms of the first sliding columns and the second sliding column are connected to a clamping plate.

[0015] Further, third air cylinders are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the fixed support frame. The ends of the third air cylinders are connected to a reset plate.

[0016] 3. Beneficial effects:

[0017] Adopting the technical solution provided by the present utility model, compared with the prior art, it has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] The design of the present utility model is reasonable.

[0030] Refer to the attached Figures 1-3 A conveying device for adjusting the position of a cigarette box includes a conveying track 1. Symmetrically arranged fixed support frames 2 are provided at both ends of the conveying track 1. A rotating mechanism 3 is provided at the top of the fixed support frame 2. The bottom of the rotating mechanism 3 is connected to a rotating support frame 4 in a matching manner. The bottom of the rotating support frame 4 is detachably connected to symmetrically arranged sliding tracks 5. Both ends of the sliding track 5 are connected by a fixing plate 6. The sliding track 5 is connected to a clamping mechanism 7 in a matching manner. A lifting clamping plate 8 is provided on the clamping mechanism 7. When a horizontal cigarette packaging box is conveyed through the conveying track 1 and moves to the bottom of the rotating support frame 4, the conveying track 1 stops conveying and waits for subsequent turning operations. When the turning operation starts, the lifting clamping plate 8 at the bottom descends to both sides of the packaging box. Subsequently, the clamping mechanism 7 moves the two lifting clamping plates 8 towards the middle, thereby driving the lifting clamping plate 8 to clamp towards the middle and clamping the packaging box. As the lifting clamping plate 8 moves upward, the rotating mechanism 3 at the top drives the rotating support frame 4 to rotate 90 degrees, completing the turning operation of the packaging box. After the turning operation is completed, the lifting clamping plate 8 descends to make the packaging box fall back onto the conveying track 1 again. The clamping mechanism 7 separates the lifting clamping plates 8 and waits for the subsequent conveying track 1 to move the turned packaging box backward. This device adopts automated operations, improves the turning efficiency of the packaging box, and reduces labor costs.

[0031] The rotating mechanism 3 includes a concave support plate 31. The end of the top surface of the concave support plate 31 is connected to the fixed support frame 2. The middle of the concave support plate 31 is rotatably connected to the rotating support frame 4. A mounting plate 32 is provided at the top of the concave support plate 31. A rotating motor 33 is provided in the middle of the mounting plate 32. The rotating shaft at the bottom of the rotating motor 33 is connected to a first gear 34. The first gear 34 meshes with the rotating support frame 4. The rotating mechanism 3 can provide a forward and reverse rotating force to the rotating support frame 4 at the bottom, thereby rotating the packaging box 90 degrees. During operation, the rotating motor 33 drives the first gear 34 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating support frame 4 in the middle of the concave support plate 31 to rotate.

[0032] The rotating support frame 4 includes a positioning column 41. The positioning column 41 is provided in the middle of the concave support plate 31. The middle of the positioning column 41 is rotatably connected to a rotating column 42. The top of the rotating column 42 is connected to a second gear 43. The second gear 43 is connected to the first gear 34 in a matching manner. The bottom of the rotating column 42 is a fixed column 44. The bottom of the fixed column 44 is connected to a connecting frame 45. The bottom of the connecting frame 45 is detachably connected to the sliding track 5. The rotating support frame 4 can provide a traction force to the sliding track 5 at the bottom. When the rotating mechanism 3 at the top works, it will drive the second gear 43 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating column 42 at the bottom to rotate within the positioning column 41, and thus driving the entire sliding track 5 to rotate through the connecting frame 45 at the bottom.

[0033] The clamping mechanism 7 includes sliding plates 71 symmetrically arranged. The lifting clamping plates 8 are provided on the sliding plates 71. The bottom of the sliding plates 71 is slidably connected to the sliding track 5. One side of the middle of the sliding track 5 is connected to a first air cylinder 72. The end of the first air cylinder 72 is connected to a first joint block 73. The bottom of the first joint block 73 is symmetrically and rotatably connected to first connecting rings 74. The outer ends of the first connecting rings 74 are connected to joint columns 75. The joint columns 75 are connected to the sliding track 5 through second connecting rings 76. When the first air cylinder 72 performs a pulling operation, it will drive the first joint block 73 to move horizontally. When the first joint block 73 moves outward, it will drive the two side sliding plates 71 to move inward on the sliding track 5 to achieve a clamping effect. When the first joint block 73 moves inward, it will drive the two side sliding plates 71 to move outward on the sliding track 5 through the joint columns 75 at the bottom.

[0034] The lifting clamping plates 8 include first sliding columns 81 symmetrically arranged. The first sliding columns 81 are slidably connected to the sliding plates 71. In the middle of the top surface of the sliding plates 71, there is a second air cylinder 82. The bottom of the second air cylinder 82 is connected to a second sliding column 83. The bottoms of the first sliding columns 81 and the second sliding column 83 are connected to a clamping plate 84. The two clamping plates 84 are respectively slidably connected to the top sliding plates 71 through the first sliding columns 81 and the second sliding columns 83 on the sides. The second air cylinder 82 can drive the bottom clamping plate 84 to move in the vertical direction. When it is necessary to clamp the cigarette box, it drives the clamping plate 84 to move downward, and then moves upward after clamping. After the cigarette box is lifted, it turns and puts it down.

[0035] On the bottom of the fixed support frame 2, third air cylinders 21 are symmetrically provided. The ends of the third air cylinders 21 are connected to a reset plate 22. When the cigarette box moves to the bottom of the fixed support frame 2, the two symmetrically arranged third air cylinders 21 push the reset plate 22 inward, and then push the cigarette box to a preset position in the middle, preventing the cigarette box from being not centered or tilted during feeding, which may cause subsequent turning failure.

[0036] The above embodiments only represent a certain implementation mode of the present invention. The description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the patent of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several deformations and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention should be subject to the appended claims.
