[0021] It should be noted that the ejector cylinder 2, the door plate 3 and the door opening cylinder 4 are all located above the cigarette missing box detection screening device 18, and the size of the ejecting port is at least 2cm larger than the length, width and height of the cigarette, so as to ensure that the cigarette can effectively pass through the ejecting port when being pushed by the ejector cylinder 2.

[0022] In a specific embodiment, a cylinder bracket 6 is fixed on the outer wall of the cigarette lifting channel 1, the ejector cylinder 2 is fixed on the cylinder bracket 6, a push block 7 is fixed on the telescopic end of the ejector cylinder 2, and a through hole is formed on the side wall of the cigarette lifting channel 1 for avoiding the push block 7.

[0023] In this embodiment, the ejecting cylinder 2 is horizontally arranged, and the push block 7 at the telescopic end of the ejecting cylinder 2 is a rectangular block with a length of 7 cm and a width of 2.5 cm. The size of the through hole in the side wall of the cigarette lifting channel 1 is 1 cm larger than the size of the rectangular block, i.e., the size of the through hole is 8 cm in length and 3.5 cm in width, so as to ensure that the push block 7 can be telescopically operated freely, thereby ensuring that the defective cigarette can be smoothly pushed out of the cigarette lifting channel 1.

[0024] The model of the ejecting cylinder 2 is preferably NT20N-100. In order to ensure that the ejecting cylinder 2 is stably and effectively operated, a position detection magnetic switch 19 can be installed on the ejecting cylinder 2. The position detection magnetic switch 19 is a commercially available component, which can be directly purchased. The installation of the position detection magnetic switch 19 on the ejecting cylinder 2 can play two protection functions. First, when the push block 7 on the ejecting cylinder 2 is not at the original position, the elevator cannot be started, thereby avoiding the collision between the cigarette supporting block in the cigarette lifting channel 1 and the push block 7. Second, when the push block 7 on the ejecting cylinder 2 is not at the original position, the automatic ejecting function cannot be started, thereby preventing the defective cigarette from being damaged and causing mechanical failure.

The model of the door opening cylinder 4 is preferably MA16X50SCA.

[0027] Since the defective cigarette is pushed out of the cigarette lifting channel 1 and is 2.8 meters away from the ground, directly falling to the ground will cause the cigarette sample to be deformed or even damaged, and the cigarette sample will be directly scrapped. Even if the defective cigarette is a finished product, it will also cause the cigarette in the box to be wrinkled and deformed.

[0028] The flexible cigarette receiving device 5 includes a cigarette receiving frame 10, a guide slide 11, and a vertical slide 12.

[0029] The cigarette receiving frame 10 is preferably made of aluminum. The cigarette receiving frame 10 mainly plays a role in receiving the cigarette. In order to prevent the cigarette from being pushed out of the cigarette lifting channel 1 and being skewed and unable to effectively fall into the cigarette receiving frame 10, a baffle 13 is preferably arranged on both sides of the cigarette receiving frame 10.

[0030] The side wall of the guide chute 11 is formed with an inclined guide surface 14, and the upper end of the guide chute 11 is larger in size than the lower end.

[0031] The height of the guide chute 11 in the embodiment is preferably 0.65 m, and the height of the vertical chute 12 is also preferably 0.65 m.

[0032] Further, the vertical chute 12 comprises a bottom frame 15 and a plurality of connecting columns 16, the lower end of the connecting column 16 is fixedly connected with the bottom frame 15, the upper end of the connecting column 16 is fixedly connected with the bottom of the guide chute 11, and the bottom frame 15 is provided with an elastic net 17.

[0033] The plurality of connecting columns 16 enclose a rectangular space, the rectangular space can accommodate the carton cigarette, the elastic net 17 on the bottom frame 15 is elastic, the impact force of the carton cigarette falling on the elastic net 17 can be absorbed, the bottom of the carton cigarette is effectively protected, the spacing between the adjacent two connecting columns 16 is slightly larger than the thickness of the carton cigarette, so that the carton cigarette can be conveniently taken out from the vertical chute 12 by the worker, and the carton cigarette cannot easily fall from the connecting columns 16 during the falling process.

[0034] The carton cigarette lifting channel 1 is fixedly provided with a PLC controller (not shown in the figure), the PLC controller can be purchased, and the model can be selected as S7-200 PLC CPU222 type. The PLC controller is used for controlling the working state of the rejection air cylinder 2 and the door opening air cylinder 4.

[0035] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: when the carton cigarette is lifted in the carton cigarette lifting channel 1, the carton cigarette first passes through the carton cigarette box missing detection and screening device, when the carton cigarette box missing detection and screening device detects that the carton cigarette is missing, a signal is sent to the PLC controller, the PLC controller controls the lifting machine to stop, controls the door opening air cylinder 4 to shrink at the same time, so that the door plate 3 is opened, the PLC controller controls the rejection air cylinder 2 to extend after a delay of 1 second, the push block 7 on the rejection air cylinder 2 pushes the carton cigarette, the carton cigarette is pushed out of the carton cigarette lifting channel 1 from the rejection port, and then falls into the guide chute 11 and then enters the vertical chute 12; after the rejection is completed, the PLC controller controls the rejection air cylinder 2 to shrink after a delay of 1 second, and the push block 7 returns to the original position, and the PLC controller controls the door opening air cylinder 4 to extend after a delay of 3 seconds, so that the door plate 3 closes the rejection port. At this time, the lifting machine can continue to work.
