[0030] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that similar or identical parts in the drawings or in the specification are numbered the same. Implementations not shown or described in the drawings are forms known to those skilled in the art. In addition, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "top," "bottom," "left," "right," "front," and "back" mentioned in the embodiments are merely references to the directions in the drawings and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] like Figures 2-3 As shown, a cigarette box folding and combing device of the present invention is applied to an unwrapping line stacker. The unwrapping line stacker includes a slide rail 11, a workbench 12 and a clamp 13. The workbench 12 is slidably set on the slide rail 11. The workbench 12 is used to place the cigarette box. The clamp 13 is used to clamp the ear plate of the cigarette box. In actual use, the three-dimensional block-shaped cigarette box is first placed on the workbench 12 by a robot arm. The workbench 12 is embedded with a push rod slider and other mechanisms, which can push out the ear plate on the top of the cigarette box and pull the two diagonal corners of the cigarette box to make the cigarette box into a compressed plane. At this time, the ear plate on the top of the cigarette box will sag in some cases to the point that the clamp 13 cannot clamp the ear plate. For example, the joints of the cigarette box are worn out due to long-term use, which makes it impossible for the ear plate to be in a vertical state.

[0032] The cigarette box folding and combing device includes a combing plate 21, a rotary drive assembly, and a motion drive assembly. The rotary drive assembly is used to rotate the combing plate 21, allowing it to adhere to one side of the folded cigarette box. The motion drive assembly is used to drive the combing plate 21 vertically, allowing it to drive the lugs upward to facilitate gripping by the clamp 13.

[0033] like Figure 2 The combing plates 21 can be arranged into two groups, each group being provided with two combing plates 21 , which are respectively used to comb the four ear plates of the cigarette box.

[0034] In order to prevent the carding plate 21 from scratching the surface of the cigarette box, the present application is provided with a roller at the free end of the carding plate 21, and the roller 22 is rotatably connected to the carding plate 21. The roller 22 can prevent the carding plate 21 from contacting the surface of the cigarette box, thereby protecting the cigarette box.

[0035] like Figure 3 The rotation drive assembly includes a hydraulic rod 23, a base 25 and a mounting seat 24. One end of the two combing plates of a single group is hinged to the mounting seat 24. The base 25 is fixed on the side of the mounting seat 24 away from the cigarette box. One end of the hydraulic rod 23 is hinged to the side of the combing plate 21, and the other end is mounted on the base 25. When the hydraulic rod 23 is extended and retracted to control the rotation of the combing plate 21, the base 25 and the mounting seat 24 are in a fixed state. In this application, the hydraulic rod 23 is used to drive the combing plate 21 to rotate around the hinge. In fact, a motor and gears can also be directly set to control the rotation of the combing plate 21. In this application, a hydraulic rod 23 is set to drive the combing plate 21 to rotate. The improvement cost is low, the number of components used is small, and the operation method is simple.

[0036] The motion drive assembly is used to drive the combing plate 21 close to the cigarette box to move vertically, thereby lifting the drooping ear plate upward to facilitate the clamping of the clamp 13. Specifically, the motion drive assembly includes a guide rail 26, a motor 27 and a screw 28. The base 25 is slidably connected to the guide rail 26. The motor 27 is used to drive the base 25 to slide along the guide rail 26. The motor 27 is arranged at one end of the guide rail 26. One end of the screw 28 is transmission-connected to the output shaft of the motor 27. The screw 28 is screwed to the base 25. When the motor 27 drives the screw 28 to rotate, the screw 28 can drive the base 25 to slide along the guide rail 26. Preferably, the motor 27 is a servo motor, which can control the base 25 and the combing plate 21 to move upward to drive the ear plate to rise through forward and reverse rotation, or drive the base 25 and the combing plate 21 to reset after the clamp 13 completes clamping. In actual use, a hydraulic rod, a cylinder or other lateral driving components can also be provided to drive the base 25 to move. In this application, the use of the motor 27 can facilitate the adjustment of the movement direction and movement stroke of the carding plate 21.

[0037] The above describes in detail the cigarette box folding and combing device provided by the present invention. The description of the specific embodiments is intended only to facilitate understanding of the method and core concept of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art may make various improvements and modifications to the present invention without departing from the principles of the present invention, and such improvements and modifications are also within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
