The horizontal transport mechanism 2 is located on one side of the receiving and conveying mechanism 3 to transport the upper and lower cigarette packs pushed out by the pushing mechanism 4.

[0026] In this embodiment, the vertical transport mechanism 1 drives the cigarette packs downward. After the vertical transport mechanism 1 reaches its position, the receiving and conveying mechanism 3 receives the signal that the cigarette packs have been transported downward to the set position, and the receiving and conveying mechanism 4 starts to operate, pushing the receiving and conveying mechanism 3 upward to the set position. After the receiving and conveying mechanism 3 reaches the set position, the pushing mechanism 4 operates, pushing the upper and lower layers of cigarette packs forward simultaneously. The lower layer of cigarette packs enters the horizontal transport mechanism 2 to complete the boxing, while the upper layer of cigarette packs stays on the receiving and conveying mechanism 3 to complete the packaging work. After the lower layer of cigarette packs enters the horizontal transport mechanism 2 and is transported to the box, the receiving and conveying mechanism 3 operates to drive the upper layer of cigarette packs downward to the horizontal transport mechanism 2 for transport to the box.

[0027] In this embodiment, the delivery mechanism 3 includes a drive unit 31, a push rod 32, and a delivery frame 33. The drive unit 31 is connected to the push rod 32 to drive the push rod 32 to move up and down reciprocally. The delivery frame 33 is fixedly installed at the top of the push rod 32. The delivery frame 33 is provided with a step 331 for fixing the upper cigarette pack. The step 331 can accurately support the cigarette pack to move up and down. The push rod 32 is surrounded by a constraint structure 314 formed by a flange seat and a guide rail. The delivery frame 33 has a U-shaped structure. The sides and / or bottom of the delivery frame 33 are respectively provided with weight reduction holes 332. The step 331 is provided on the inner walls of two opposite sides of the delivery frame 33.

The horizontal transport mechanism 2 includes a conveyor belt 21 for horizontal transport of the cigarette packs and a drive unit 22 for driving the conveyor belt 21 to perform horizontal transport.

[0030] In this embodiment, when the cigarette pack is conveyed downward to the set position, the receiving and conveying mechanism 3 receives a signal, and the receiving and conveying motor 311 runs to drive the crank connecting rod assembly 312 to rotate, thereby moving the push rod 32 up and down. The push rod 32 is connected to the crank connecting rod assembly 312 by a shaft hinge. The push rod 32 moves within the flange seat. The guide rail constrains the push rod 32 to move only in the vertical direction. The push rod 32 is fixed to the receiving and conveying frame 33 with screws. The push rod 32 drives the receiving and conveying frame 33 to move up and down to complete the receiving and conveying of the upper cigarette pack. The receiving and conveying frame 33 is provided with a step 331 for receiving and fixing the upper cigarette pack. After the receiving and conveying mechanism 3 reaches the set position, the pushing mechanism 4 operates, started by the pushing motor 411, which drives the gear and rack assembly 412. One end of the rack is fixed to the push plate 421 with screws. The rack drives the push plate 421 to move back and forth. The push plate 421 and the push plate 422 are connected by screws. The push plate 422 pushes the upper and lower cigarette packs forward. The upper cigarette pack is pushed into the receiving frame 33, and the lower cigarette pack is pushed into the conveyor belt 21 to enter the boxing process. After the lower cigarette pack is boxed, the receiving and conveying mechanism 3 drives the receiving frame 33 to move downwards. Figure 3 As shown, the upper cigarette packs are fed into conveyor belt 21 and then into boxes.
