[0026] The names of the messages or information exchanged between multiple devices in the embodiments of the present invention are only used for illustrative purposes and are not used to limit the scope of these messages or information.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 A cigarette packing machine carton paper loading device, the loading device having a feeding end 80 and a discharging end 90, a conveyor belt 50 is installed at the discharging end 90, and a tray 60 for placing materials is provided at the feeding end 80;

[0028] The device includes: a material storage ring 10, a plurality of storage slots 11 are opened on the surface of the material storage ring 10 at equal intervals along the circumference, and the storage slots 11 are used to place materials. Preferably, the materials are box paper stacks. The material storage ring 10 has an annular structure and can rotate.

[0029] The device also includes: a material return mechanism 20 for moving the material in the storage tank 11 to the conveyor belt 50. Preferably, the material return mechanism 20 includes: a cylinder 21 and a pusher 22. The cylinder 21 end of the cylinder 21 is fixed to the base 40, and the telescopic end faces the discharge end 90; the pusher 22 is installed on the telescopic end; the material storage ring 10 is provided with a first opening 12 in the portion between the storage tank 11 and the cylinder 21. The size of the first opening 12 is consistent with the size of the pusher 22. Figure 5As shown, when the telescopic end of the oil cylinder 21 is extended, the push handle 22 can push the material. It is worth noting that the size of the first opening 12 is smaller than the upper opening 112 or the front opening 113 of the storage tank 11. This can effectively prevent the box paper stack from falling backward and causing it to fall into the device through the first opening 12;

[0030] The device further includes: a feeding mechanism for moving materials from the tray 60 to the storage tank 11. Preferably, the feeding mechanism includes: a mechanical gripper 30; the storage ring 10 is provided with an avoidance groove 111 at the bottom of the storage tank 11. The size of the avoidance groove 111 is consistent with the size of the gripping part of the mechanical gripper 30. Since the gripping part of the mechanical gripper 30 clamps the upper and lower parts of the box paper stack for feeding, the avoidance groove 111 can provide space for the gripping part of the mechanical gripper 30 when feeding, so that it can move in and out freely;

[0031] Further, such as Figure 3 As shown, when one of the storage slots 11 corresponds to the feed end 80, the other storage slot 11 corresponds to the discharge end 90. When loading the cigarette packing machine, the mechanical gripper 30 first grabs the box paper stack on the tray 60 and puts it into the storage slot 11 corresponding to the feed end 80, and then the storage ring 10 rotates so that the next storage slot 11 corresponds to the feed end 80. At this time, the mechanical gripper 30 can continue to place it, and so on. When the first storage slot 11 containing the box paper stack moves to the discharge end 90, the oil cylinder 21 pushes the pusher 22 to push the box paper stack onto the conveyor belt 50 of the cigarette packing machine.

[0032] In addition, if the cigarette packing machine is blocked or even shut down due to a malfunction, the oil cylinder 21 can temporarily stop working, allowing the mechanical gripper 30 to continue feeding the storage slot 11 until a stack of box paper is placed in each storage slot 11. After the cigarette packing machine returns to normal, feeding can be carried out directly, and the connection between the various production processes should be noted that the number of storage slots 11 in the accompanying drawings is only a schematic diagram of the setting of the storage slots 11, and does not represent the actual number of storage slots 11. Users can set the number of storage slots 11 according to actual conditions to meet the condition that all the box paper stacks on the tray 60 can be placed in the storage slot 11 to increase the buffer volume. Regardless of the number of storage slots 11 set, they are all included in the protection scope of this application.

[0033] Based on further improvements to the above structure, the device further includes: a base 40, on which the storage ring 10 is rotatably mounted; a motor for driving the storage ring 10 to rotate is installed in the base 40, and the motor can drive the storage ring 10 to rotate. This technology is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0034] Based on the further improvement of the above structure, since the packaging machine may not be able to be repaired for a long time after a malfunction, a first baffle 41 is installed on the base 40 at the inner edge of the inner ring of the storage ring 10; the base 40 is installed on the outer edge of the outer ring of the storage ring 10; the first baffle 41 and the second baffle 42 are both annular structures, which can ensure that when the storage slot 11 is not at the feed end 80 or the discharge end 90, the box paper stack in the storage slot 11 can be safely placed in the storage slot 11, avoiding the box paper stack being affected by the external environment during storage and causing quality problems.

[0035] Furthermore, a second opening 411 is provided in the portion of the first baffle 41 corresponding to the push handle 22. The size of the second opening 411 is consistent with the size of the push handle 22. The portion of the first baffle 41 other than the second opening 411 can ensure that the storage slot 11 is in a sealed state as much as possible, thereby reducing the impact of factors such as the internal circuit and temperature of the equipment on the quality of the paper box stack. At the same time, the second opening 411 can ensure that the cylinder 21 can work smoothly.

[0036] Furthermore, the second baffle 42 is provided with a third opening 421 near the feed end 80 and the discharge end 90. The size of the third opening 421 is consistent with the size of the front opening 113 of the storage slot 11. The part of the second baffle 42 other than the third opening 421 can ensure that the storage slot 11 is in a sealed state as much as possible, and can minimize the impact of external factors of the equipment on the quality of the box paper stack.

[0037] Based on further improvements to the above structure, the device further includes: a top plate 70, fixed to the base 40, installed on the top of the storage ring 10, and a fourth opening 71 is opened on the part of the top plate 70 close to the feed end 80. The size of the fourth opening 71 is consistent with the size of the upper opening 112 of the storage slot 11, which can facilitate the mechanical gripper 30 to place the box paper stack from the upper opening 112 of the storage slot 11 downward.

[0038] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.

[0039] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the above embodiments are merely for the purpose of illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Other variations or modifications may be made based on the above disclosure, and such variations or modifications are still within the scope of the present invention.
