[0030] The cigarette conveyor assembly 2 is provided with a cigarette rejection mechanism 11 in front of the second aluminum foil wrapping line. This mechanism is used to reject unqualified cigarettes from a pile. For example, a pile containing fewer than 10 cigarettes must be rejected. This mechanism utilizes the IPC-based cigarette pack appearance inspection and rejection device disclosed in Chinese patent application number CN201611072144.3, a prior art device not described further herein.

[0031] The first aluminum foil wrapping production line includes a cigarette pushing mechanism 10, a cigarette orientation adjustment mechanism 9, a cigarette ejecting mechanism 15, an aluminum foil feeding mechanism 6, an aluminum foil wrapping mechanism 8, and an aluminum bag conveyor line A7, all mounted on a machine base 1. The cigarette pushing mechanism 10 is used to push cigarettes from the discharge end of the cigarette conveyor assembly 2 into the cigarette orientation adjustment mechanism 9, which adjusts the orientation of the cigarettes within it. The cigarette ejecting mechanism 15 is used to push cigarettes in the cigarette orientation adjustment mechanism 9 into the aluminum foil wrapping mechanism 8. The aluminum foil feeding mechanism 6 supplies aluminum foil to the cigarette foil wrapping mechanism 8, which wraps the cigarettes with aluminum foil and pushes the resulting aluminum bags to the aluminum bag conveyor line A7. During operation, the cigarette pushing mechanism 10 includes an electric cylinder and a push plate at the cylinder's output end. The electric cylinder drives the push plate to push cigarettes in the first C-shaped mold box 21 into the cigarette orientation adjustment mechanism 9. The cigarette orientation adjustment mechanism 9 is used to flip the cigarettes 180°. The cigarette orientation adjustment mechanism 9 and the cigarette ejection mechanism 15 adopt the cigarette pack flipping mechanism provided by the Chinese patent document with application number CN202110190396.0, which is a prior art and will not be described in detail here.
