Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of auxiliary tool for cigarette production, more specifically to a tool for sampling stem plugs of a cigarette making machine. BACKGROUND

[0002] In cigarette production, the function of the cigarette making machine is to roll, connect filters and cut the tobacco sent by the wind into single cigarettes. Since the tobacco sent by the wind contains stem plugs that can easily pierce the cigarette paper, the cigarette making machine needs to air separate the tobacco. The stem plugs after air separation advance by vibration of the conveying vibration groove and fall into the horn mouth of the negative pressure recovery pipeline below. The effect of air separation directly affects the quality of cigarette production process and production cost. Therefore, the effect of air separation needs to be measured regularly, which requires sampling of the stem plugs after air separation. The sampling position is between the end of the vibration groove and the horn mouth of the negative pressure recovery pipeline.

[0003] In the past, due to the lack of special tools, hard paper boxes were used to collect stem plugs, which had the following defects: 1. The hard paper box was difficult to withstand the action of the huge negative pressure and was easy to deform and damage, with a short service life; 2. The hard paper box was a flat structure, and the collected stem plugs were easy to spill, with too little sampling amount; 3. The sampling environment space was limited, and it was not easy to place stably when sampling, with low work efficiency. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

[0006] A tool for sampling stem plugs of a cigarette making machine, the cigarette making machine comprising a vibration groove and a negative pressure recovery pipeline, the inlet of the negative pressure recovery pipeline being provided with a horn mouth, the horn mouth being located below the discharge end of the vibration groove, the sampling tool being placed in the horn mouth, the sampling tool comprising a receiving hopper located in the horn mouth, the receiving hopper being provided with horizontally extending support sections on the left and right sides of the top end, the receiving hopper being supported on the left and right ends of the horn mouth by the support sections on the left and right sides, a handle extending along the left-right direction being provided outside the support section on one side of the receiving hopper, the support sections on the left and right sides of the receiving hopper being provided with downward protruding limiting structures at the bottom, and the receiving hopper being limited by the left and right limiting structures and the left and right sides of the horn mouth.

[0007] As a preferred solution of the sampling tool, the limiting structure on the same side as the handle among the two limiting structures is a limiting rod extending along the front-back direction, and the limiting structure on the opposite side of the handle is a limiting hook extending along the front-back direction.

[0008] As a preferred solution of the sampling tool, the side surface of the limiting hook on the side facing the receiving hopper is a slope.

[0009] As a preferred solution of the sampling tool, the side wall of the receiving hopper is in the shape of a horn matching the shape of the horn mouth, and the bottom surface of the receiving hopper is a horizontal surface.

[0010] As a preferred solution of the sampling tool, the four edges of the handle are all provided with rounded corners.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the sampling tool has the following advantages:

[0012] The sampling tool for stem plugs of a cigarette making machine can be easily and stably placed on the horn mouth of the negative pressure recovery pipeline, and is used for conveniently sampling the stem plugs after air selection. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0018] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below, and the embodiments are implemented on the premise of the technical scheme of the present application, and detailed implementation modes and specific operation processes are given, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0019] Reference is made to Figures 1 to 4The embodiment discloses a tobacco stem sampling tool of a tobacco making machine, the tobacco making machine comprising a vibration groove 1 and a negative pressure recovery pipeline 2, the inlet of the negative pressure recovery pipeline 2 being provided with a bell mouth 3, the bell mouth 3 being located below the discharge end of the vibration groove 1, and the sampling tool being arranged in the bell mouth 3, the sampling tool comprising a receiving hopper 4 arranged in the bell mouth 3, the side wall of the receiving hopper 4 being in the shape of a bell matched with the shape of the bell mouth 3, and the bottom surface of the receiving hopper 4 being a horizontal surface. The left and right sides of the top end of the receiving hopper 4 are respectively provided with horizontally extending support sections 5, the receiving hopper 4 being supported on the left and right ends of the bell mouth 3 through the support sections 5 on the left and right sides, and the support section 5 on one side of the receiving hopper 4 being externally provided with a handle 6 extending in the left-right direction, and the four edges of the handle 6 being all provided with rounded corners to facilitate horizontal and stable holding by an operator.

[0020] The bottom portions of the support sections 5 on the left and right sides of the receiving hopper 4 are respectively provided with downward protruding limiting structures, and the receiving hopper 4 is limited by the left and right sides of the bell mouth 3 through the two limiting structures. Of the two limiting structures, the limiting structure on the same side as the handle 6 is a limiting rod 7 extending in the front-back direction, and the limiting structure on the opposite side of the handle 6 is a limiting hook 8 extending in the front-back direction. The side surface of the limiting hook 8 on the side facing the receiving hopper 4 is a slope.

[0021] When sampling of the tobacco stems is needed, the handle 6 is held to arrange the receiving hopper 4 in the bell mouth 3 and below the discharge end of the vibration groove 1, the receiving hopper 4 is supported on the left and right ends of the bell mouth 3 through the support sections 5 on the left and right sides, so that the receiving hopper 4 is kept horizontal, and the limiting rod 7 and the limiting hook 8 are respectively in contact with the outer sides of the left and right sides of the bell mouth 3 to limit the positions of the left and right sides of the bell mouth 3, so as to ensure the positioning of the receiving hopper 4 in the left-right direction of the bell mouth 3 and prevent the receiving hopper 4 from shaking due to the influence of the negative pressure below when sampling. The tobacco stems after air separation conveyed from the vibration groove 1 directly fall into the receiving hopper 4. After sampling is completed, the handle 6 is held to slightly incline and lift the receiving hopper 4, and the receiving hopper 4 can be taken out. Convenient sampling of the tobacco stems can be realized.

[0022] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not used to limit the utility model, and any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement within the spirit and principle of the utility model should be included in the protection range of the utility model.
