Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cigarette packaging production technology, specifically a cigarette pack insertion pressure feedback mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] When cigarette packs are placed into the box, the pressure plate is directly pressed down to keep the pack flat. If the pack is not flat or the position of the carton is off, the pack may be squeezed and deformed. Since it is not a flexible pressure plate mechanism, the force applied when the pack is placed cannot be detected and feedback can not be given. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pressure feedback mechanism for cigarette pack insertion, which uses a pressure detection switch to provide feedback on the downward pressure, ensuring the qualification of cigarette pack insertion and improving product quality.

[0004] The specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A cigarette pack insertion pressure feedback mechanism includes a pressure plate located above a movable plate. An angle iron is provided above the pressure plate. Two movable rods, each fitted with a steel ring, a rubber ring, a retaining ring, and a spring, pass through the pressure plate and connect the movable plate to the angle iron, forming a suspended support structure that generates a flexible adjustment effect. The retaining ring fixes the steel ring and the rubber ring to the pressure plate (2). Pressure detection switches are installed on the top surface of the pressure plate near the four corners.

[0006] Preferably, the lower end of the movable rod is connected to the movable plate, and the upper end is fixedly connected to the mounting angle iron through a copper sleeve; the spring is located between the steel ring and the copper sleeve.

[0007] Preferably, a side plate is fixedly connected to the top surface of the pressure plate, and a mounting plate is fixedly connected to the top surface of the side plate.

[0008] Preferably, the movable rod passes through the pressure plate and is movably connected to it.

[0009] Preferably, the movable rod and the copper sleeve are connected by a thread.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0011] The cigarette pack insertion pressure feedback mechanism provided by this utility model adds a movable plate below the pressure plate, and connects the pressure plate and the movable plate through a steel ring, copper sleeve, movable rod, and spring to form a suspended support structure. At the same time, the downward pressure is fed back through a pressure detection switch. By setting a pressure detection device on the floating cigarette pressure plate, the feedback force of the cigarette pack is detected each time it is inserted into the box. Through analysis and processing, an appropriate pressure feedback range is set. When the pressure feedback exceeds the preset value, an alarm stop and rejection signal are provided to ensure the qualification of the cigarette pack insertion and improve product quality.

[0016] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solution of this utility model will be specifically described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the following text is only used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.

[0017] like Figures 1-2 As shown, a cigarette pack insertion pressure feedback mechanism includes a movable plate 1 and a pressure plate 2. The pressure plate 2 is located above the movable plate 1, and an angle iron 9 is installed above the pressure plate 2. Two movable rods 7 are fixedly connected to the movable plate 1. The movable rods 7 pass through the through holes on the pressure plate 2 and their upper ends are connected to the angle iron 9. Each movable rod 7 is fitted with a steel ring 3, a rubber ring 4, a retaining ring 5, and a spring 8 from bottom to top. The retaining ring 5 fixes the steel ring 3 and the rubber ring 4 to the pressure plate 2. The upper part of the movable rod 7 is fixedly connected to the angle iron 9 by a copper sleeve 10. The spring 8 is located between the steel ring 3 and the copper sleeve 10. Pressure detection switches 6 are installed on the top surface of the pressure plate 2 near the four corners.

[0018] The pressure detection switch 6 used in this utility model is widely used in the field of automation control and belongs to the existing mature technology. The brand and model of the pressure detection switch is OMRON, E2E-X5MF1-M1-Z.

[0019] A side plate 11 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the pressure plate 2, and a mounting plate 12 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the side plate 11. In practical applications, the mounting plate 12 is used to install and support the mechanism and to install the drive structure, and can be adjusted according to the actual production line needs. The movable rod 7 and the copper sleeve 10 are connected by threads, which facilitates disassembly and maintenance in the later stage, increases the flexibility of maintenance, and allows adjustment of the horizontal state of the mounting angle iron 9 to ensure that the springs 8 on both sides are subjected to consistent force.

[0020] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the cigarette pack is pressed down, the pressure plate 2 moves downward. The mounting angle iron 9 installed on the pressure plate drives the copper sleeve 10 to move together. At the same time, the movable plate 1 and the movable rod 7 move downward. The spring 8 is located between the steel ring 3 and the copper sleeve 10, forming a suspended support structure, which produces a flexible adjustment effect. The pressure detection switch 6 is installed on the pressure plate 2. When the movable plate 1 presses the cigarette pack into the box, if the cigarette pack is uneven, the movable plate 1 stops at the top protrusion of the cigarette pack, while the pressure plate 2 continues to descend, causing the pressure plate 2 to stretch the spring 8. The movable plate 1 generates an upward force that is fed back to the spring 8. The pressure detection switch 6 promptly feeds back the downward pressure, detects the feedback force of the cigarette pack each time it is pressed into the box, and sets an appropriate pressure feedback range through analysis and processing. When the pressure feedback exceeds the preset value, an alarm stop and rejection signal are provided to ensure the qualification of the cigarette pack entering the box and improve product quality.

[0021] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the field.
