Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cigarette barcode recognition, in particular to a device for actively recognizing cigarette two-dimensional codes. Background Art

[0002] The surface of the bar packaging of cigarettes in my country has laser-printed Arabic numerals, bar codes and QR codes to record information such as the origin, date, and type of the cigarettes.

[0003] QR code recognition devices are usually used on the market to identify and decode cigarette strips passing on the conveyor belt. The decoded barcode information is sent to a connected device, such as a computer, for recording, verification and other corresponding operations. However, the QR code of the cigarette strip is located on the side, and the cigarette strips are placed on the conveyor belt irregularly for transportation, resulting in the side with the QR code often being offset from the QR code recognition device. The QR code recognition device cannot scan the QR code on the cigarette strip, resulting in the need to repeatedly convey and identify the same batch of cigarette strips. The operation is relatively cumbersome, and the recognition accuracy is still low, which is inconvenient for helping staff to accurately obtain the barcode information.

[0004] Based on the above background, a cigarette QR code active recognition device is proposed to solve the problem raised. Utility Model Content

[0005] Other features and advantages of the present invention will be described in the following description, and in part will become apparent from the description, or will be understood by practicing the present invention. The purpose and other advantages of the present invention can be achieved and obtained through the structures specifically pointed out in the description and other drawings.

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings and provide a device for actively identifying a two-dimensional code of a cigarette.

[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is: a device for actively identifying QR codes of cigarette strips, comprising: a frame, a conveyor belt, a barcode identifier, and a steering assembly, wherein the conveyor belt is installed on the frame; the barcode identifier is installed on the frame; the steering assembly is arranged on the frame and is located on the side of the barcode identifier; wherein the steering assembly comprises a mounting frame, a motor, a lifting cylinder, a support plate, a clamping cylinder, and a splint, the mounting frame is connected to the frame, the motor is installed on the mounting frame, the lifting cylinder is located at the top inner side of the mounting frame and is transmission-connected to the motor, the support plate is connected to the lower side of the lifting cylinder, clamping cylinders are installed on both sides of the support plate, and the splint is connected to the clamping cylinder.

[0008] Preferably, the mounting bracket is located on the side of the barcode reader.

[0009] Preferably, a photoelectric component is installed on the frame.

[0010] Preferably, the optoelectronic component is located between the mounting frame and the barcode reader.

[0011] Preferably, a cigarette scanner is installed on the lower side of the support plate and is used to scan the position and direction of the cigarettes on the conveyor belt.

[0012] Preferably, an anti-slip pad is provided on the inner side of the splint.

[0013] Preferably, the driving rod of the motor passes through the top of the mounting bracket and is connected to the cylinder body of the lifting cylinder.

[0014] Preferably, the rod of the lifting cylinder is connected to the support plate.

[0015] Preferably, the cylinder body of the clamping cylinder is located on the support plate, and the rod body is connected to the clamping plate.

[0016] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, the beneficial effect of the utility model is as follows: the utility model drives the lifting cylinder to rotate through the motor on the mounting frame, so that the support plate and the clamp follow the lifting cylinder to rotate to the same direction as the cigarette strip below. The lifting cylinder can control the support plate to move downward, so that the clamp is close to the cigarette strip. The clamping cylinder controls the clamps to move toward each other, so that the clamp moves and sticks to the cigarette strip, thereby clamping the cigarette strip. Then, the motor is started, and the clamp rotates with the cigarette strip clamped, turning it to the position where the barcode identifier can clearly scan the barcode. This process can realize the steering processing of the cigarette strips on the conveyor belt, so that the barcode identifier can accurately scan the barcode on the cigarette strip. The scanning and identification can be completed after one conveyance, without repeated conveyance. It saves time and improves recognition efficiency, thereby helping staff to accurately obtain the barcode information of the cigarette strip.

[0030] When in use, the cigarette strips are placed on the conveyor belt 2 for transportation, and are transported through the mounting frame 41. The motor 42 on the mounting frame 41 drives the lifting cylinder 43 to rotate, so that the support plate 44 and the clamping plate 46 follow the lifting cylinder 43 to rotate to the same direction as the cigarette strip below. Then the lifting cylinder 43 controls the support plate 44 to move downward, so that the clamping plate 46 is close to the cigarette strip, until the clamping plate 46 is located on both sides of the cigarette strip. Then the clamping cylinder 45 controls the clamping plate 46 to move toward each other, so that the clamping plate 46 moves and adheres to the cigarette strip, thereby clamping the cigarette strip. Finally, the motor 42 rotates, and the clamping plate 46 rotates with the cigarette strip, turning it to the position where the barcode recognizer 3 can clearly scan the barcode, thereby completing the scanning and recognition of the cigarette strip once.
