[0024] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0025] Reference is made to Figure 1 Some embodiments of the present application provide a side-standing cigarette packet turning mechanism, which comprises a first conveying channel 1 for conveying cigarette packets, a standing conveying surface 2 arranged at the conveying end of the first conveying channel 1 and used for contacting the side surface of the cigarette packet and conveying the cigarette packet by the friction force with the side surface of the cigarette packet, and the conveying direction of the standing conveying surface 2 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveying channel 1.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the turning mechanism of the present application avoids using a star wheel to turn the cigarette packet, and achieves the turning conveying of the cigarette packet by the flexible contact with the maximum end surface of the cigarette packet and the generation of the friction force, thereby avoiding the unstable posture of the turned cigarette packet due to the change of the point position of the contact between the star wheel and the cigarette packet, and further avoiding the quality defects. The flexible contact with the maximum end surface of the cigarette packet can provide a buffer in the direction of the first conveying channel 1, thereby avoiding the rigid impact damage to the cigarette packet. The movement of the cigarette packet along the standing conveying surface 2 driven by the friction force can achieve relatively efficient turning.

[0027] In some embodiments, the standing conveying surface 2 acts on the maximum surface of the cigarette packet, and in this way, the setting of the cigarette packet and the standing conveying surface 2 can maximize the friction force on the cigarette packet, thereby improving the turning efficiency and the conveying efficiency after turning.

[0028] In some embodiments, the first conveying channel 1 comprises a conveying belt 11, and the distance between the standing conveying surface 2 and the conveying end of the conveying belt 11 is equivalent to the thickness of a cigarette packet.

[0029] The setting of the distance between the standing conveying surface 2 and the conveying end of the conveying belt 11 as the thickness of a cigarette packet can ensure that only one cigarette packet is turned at the same time, and the cigarette packets in the standing conveying surface 2 do not contact each other, thereby avoiding the impact of the cigarette packets on the standing conveying surface 2 to cause quality problems.

[0030] In some embodiments, the first conveying channel comprises a first guide plate for limiting the cigarette packet to keep it in the first conveying channel. The guide plate is beneficial to improve the accuracy when the cigarette packet enters the standing conveying surface 2.

[0031] Preferably, the application also includes a turning conveyor belt 21, and the vertical conveying surface 2 is arranged on the turning conveyor belt 21. As a commonly used flexible friction drive conveying device, the conveyor belt mechanism can meet the use scenarios of the application. Specifically, in some embodiments, the vertical conveying surface 2 includes a turning conveyor belt 21, which is in contact with the front side of the cigarette conveying direction. The cigarettes are conveyed forward in the first conveying channel 1, and even if they are no longer driven by the first conveying channel 1, they still have a tendency to move forward, and the subsequent cigarettes can indirectly drive the non-driven cigarettes. Therefore, the turning conveyor belt 21 is arranged on the front side of the cigarette conveying direction, which can avoid the need to arrange a mechanism for transferring the cigarettes in the first conveying channel 1 to the vertical conveying surface 2. In addition, the inventor has found that arranging a single turning conveyor belt 21 is sufficient to meet the requirements of cigarette turning and conveying, and there is no need to arrange two opposite vertical conveying surfaces 2.

[0032] In some embodiments, the first guide plate 12 is arranged on the outer side of the minimum end surface of the cigarette, and the conveyor belt 11 acts on the bottom surface of the cigarette.

[0033] In the first conveying channel 1, since the cigarettes are placed vertically on the side, and the maximum end surface is perpendicular to the conveying direction, the conveying belt 11 in the first conveying channel 1 has the largest acting area when arranged on the bottom surface, which can provide the best conveying efficiency, and the friction generated when the end surface of the cigarette is limited by the first guide plate 12 is also smaller. In addition, arranging the conveyor belt 11 on the bottom surface is more convenient for placing the motor, belt and other devices that are prone to interference below the working platform 200, which is beneficial to reducing production accidents.

[0034] In order to guide the cigarettes in the vertical conveying surface 2, in some embodiments, the vertical conveying surface 2 includes a turning guide plate 22, which is arranged opposite to the turning conveyor belt 21. Considering that in the preferred embodiment, there is only one cigarette between the turning guide plate 22 and the turning conveyor belt 21 at the same time, in order to make the cigarette conveying into the downstream machine more accurate, the distance of the turning conveyor belt 21 is equivalent to the thickness of one cigarette.

[0035] In some embodiments, the vertical conveying surface 2 includes a second guide plate 23, which is arranged behind the turning conveyor belt 21 along the conveying direction and opposite to the turning guide plate 22. The second guide plate 23 and the turning guide plate 22 are connected with the downstream machine and guide the movement of the cigarette entering the downstream machine. The second guide plate 23 and the first guide plate 12 can be connected with the conveying mechanism of the cigarette input end of the downstream machine.

[0036] As a specific embodiment of the turning conveyor belt 21, the turning conveyor belt 21 comprises a driving motor 211, a driving pulley 212, a driven pulley 213, a belt tensioning support 214, and a belt 215. The belt 215 is sleeved on the driving pulley 212, the driven pulley 213, and the belt tensioning support 214. The driving motor 211 is in transmission connection with the driving pulley 212. The belt tensioning support 214 tensions the belt 215.

[0037] Preferably, the belt 215 is a synchronous toothed belt. The synchronous toothed belt can keep a stable rotating speed, is not prone to slipping, and has a certain roughness, so that it has a certain friction with the cigarette packet, thereby facilitating the turning of the cigarette packet and meeting the use scenario of the present application.

[0038] In some embodiments, the first conveying channel 1 and the vertical conveying surface 2 are both arranged above the working platform 200, and the driving motor 211 is arranged below the working platform 200. In this way, the driving motor 211 is arranged below the working platform 200, so that the working platform 200 is more tidy, safe, and reliable.

[0039] The specific embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 For example, a vertical and lateral cigarette packet turning mechanism is provided.

[0040] The embodiment comprises a first conveying channel 1 and a vertical conveying surface 2, both of which are arranged on a working platform 200.

[0041] The first conveying channel 1 comprises a conveying belt 11 and a first guide plate 12. The vertical conveying surface 2 is away from the first guide plate 12 by a distance equivalent to the thickness of a cigarette packet 100. The first guide plate 12 is arranged outside the smallest end surface of the cigarette packet 100. The conveying belt 11 acts on the bottom surface of the cigarette packet 100.

[0042] The vertical conveying surface 2 comprises a turning conveyor belt 21, a turning guide plate 22, and a second guide plate 23. The turning conveyor belt 21 is in contact with the front side of the cigarette packet 100 in the conveying direction.

[0043] Specifically, the turning conveyor belt 21 comprises a driving motor 211, a driving pulley 212, a driven pulley 213, a belt tensioning support 214, and a belt 215. The belt 215 is sleeved on the driving pulley 212, the driven pulley 213, and the belt tensioning support 214. The driving motor 211 is in transmission connection with the driving pulley 212. The belt tensioning support 214 tensions the belt 215. The belt 215 is a synchronous toothed belt. The driving motor 211 is arranged below.

[0044] The embodiment of the present scheme is designed compactly. The driving motor 211 is installed below the working platform 200, and drives the driving pulley 212 to rotate through the shaft coupling. The driving pulley 212 drives the belt 215 to rotate. The belt 215 receives the cigarette packet 100 sent by the first conveying channel 1, and carries the cigarette packet 100 to rotate by the friction force. At the same time, the gap between the second guide plate 23, the turning guide plate 22 and the turning conveying belt 21 is the side standing size of the cigarette packet 100, so as to control the number of the cigarette packet 100 when turning, realize the separation of the cigarette packet 100 to be turned, and make the cigarette packet 100 in the vertical conveying surface 2 not interfere with the front and rear cigarette packets 100, so as to avoid the stacking of the continuously moving cigarette packets 100 when turning, and improve the stability of the turning of the cigarette packet 100.

[0045] When the cigarette packet 100 to be turned is pushed to contact the turning conveying belt 21, the turning conveying belt 21 drives the cigarette packet 100 to be turned to move due to the friction force between them, so as to realize the turning of the cigarette packet 100. The cigarette packet turning mechanism of the embodiment turns the longitudinally conveyed cigarette packet 100 to be transversely conveyed to meet the requirement of the orientation of the cigarette packet 100 in the downstream machine, i.e. the YB55 device process production.
