Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cigarette pack conveying, and in particular to a cigarette pack stacking and conveying mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] The production process of cigarettes, from tobacco to cigarette sticks, from cigarette sticks to cigarette packs, from cigarette packs to cartons, and from cartons to boxes, requires different packaging processes and equipment. Among them, the packaging process from cigarette packs to cartons requires lifting and transferring the cigarette packs on the conveyor line into a stacked state for carton packaging and subsequent filming and boxing. In this process, stacking the cigarette packs into a stacked state is achieved through a series of conveying and lifting actions by cigarette pack stacking conveyor equipment.

[0003] However, during stacking and conveying, traditional stacking equipment requires manual removal of the cigarette packs from the equipment after lifting them to the required height before they can be transferred to the next step. This manual handling is inconvenient.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a cigarette pack stacking and conveying mechanism. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a cigarette pack stacking and conveying mechanism. The mechanism uses an electric track to drive a support plate to move back and forth. When the electric track drives the support plate to move outward, the cigarette packs on the support plate are sent out from inside the equipment bracket and into a turnover cart on one side of the equipment. Then, when the electric track drives the support plate to reset, the cylinder on the lifting frame pushes the baffle downward. The baffle abuts against the top of the support plate to prevent the cigarette packs from resetting with the support plate, so that the cigarette packs automatically fall from the support plate into the turnover cart and are stacked.

[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] A cigarette pack stacking and conveying mechanism includes a support frame, a lifting frame slidably connected inside the support frame, an electric rail fixedly connected to the lower end inside the lifting frame, a support plate fixedly connected to the transmission end of the electric rail, a cylinder fixedly connected to the front end of the upper part of the lifting frame and above the support plate, a baffle fixedly connected to the transmission end of the cylinder, and the bottom end of the baffle being adapted to the top end of the support plate.

[0008] Furthermore, a servo motor is fixedly connected to the top of the bracket, and a transmission sprocket is fixedly connected to the transmission end of the servo motor.

[0009] Furthermore, a shaft is installed at the upper end of the bracket and behind the servo motor, and the shaft is rotatably connected to the bracket.

[0010] Furthermore, an upper sprocket is fixedly connected to the left end of the shaft.

[0011] Furthermore, a lower sprocket is rotatably connected to the lower part of the bracket, and a lifting chain is fitted in the middle of the lower sprocket. The end of the lifting chain away from the lower sprocket is fitted in the middle of the upper sprocket, and the lifting chain meshes with both the lower sprocket and the upper sprocket.

[0012] Furthermore, a driven sprocket is installed at the middle of the shaft and on the rear side of the transmission sprocket, and the driven sprocket is adapted to the transmission sprocket.

[0013] Furthermore, the inner side of the lifting chain is fixedly connected to the lifting frame.

[0014] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. The support plate is moved back and forth by the electric track. When the electric track moves the support plate out, the cigarette packs on the support plate are sent out from inside the equipment bracket and into the turnover cart on one side of the equipment. Then, when the electric track moves the support plate back to the original position, the cylinder on the lifting frame pushes the baffle down. The baffle abuts the top of the support plate to prevent the cigarette packs from following the support plate back to the original position, so that the cigarette packs automatically fall from the support plate into the turnover cart and are stacked.

[0016] 2. The driven sprocket and shaft are driven to rotate by a servo motor and a transmission sprocket. A chain can be fitted onto the transmission sprocket and driven sprocket to facilitate transmission. The shaft drives the upper sprocket and lower sprocket to rotate through the lifting chain. Thus, the lifting chain rotates up and down. During the rotation of the lifting chain, the lifting frame can be raised and lowered. The lifting frame drives the cylinder, baffle, electric track and support plate to rise and fall.

[0017] 3. The support plate facilitates the placement of the tobacco pack assembly. When the support plate is moved or raised or lowered, it can move and raise the tobacco pack assembly, eliminating the need for manual lifting and moving of the tobacco pack assembly, making it more convenient and efficient to use.

It should be noted that the terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "up," and "down" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, while the terms "bottom surface," "top surface," "inner," and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific part, respectively.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-5 As shown, a cigarette pack stacking and conveying mechanism in a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a support 1. A lifting frame 13 is slidably connected inside the support 1. An electric track 9 is fixedly connected to the lower end inside the lifting frame 13. A support plate 6 is fixedly connected to the transmission end of the electric track 9. A cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to the front end of the upper part of the lifting frame 13 and above the support plate 6. A baffle 8 is fixedly connected to the transmission end of the cylinder 7. The bottom end of the baffle 8 is adapted to the top end of the support plate 6.

[0027] A servo motor 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the bracket 1, and a transmission sprocket 10 is fixedly connected to the transmission end of the servo motor 2.

[0028] A shaft 3 is installed at the upper end of the bracket 1 and behind the servo motor 2. The shaft 3 is rotatably connected to the bracket 1.

[0029] The left end of shaft 3 is fixedly connected to the upper sprocket 12.

[0030] The lower part of the bracket 1 is rotatably connected to the lower sprocket 5. The middle part of the lower sprocket 5 is fitted with a lifting chain 4. The end of the lifting chain 4 away from the lower sprocket 5 is fitted with the middle part of the upper sprocket 12. The lifting chain 4 is engaged with both the lower sprocket 5 and the upper sprocket 12.

[0031] A driven sprocket 11 is installed in the middle of the shaft 3 and on the rear side of the transmission sprocket 10. The driven sprocket 11 is adapted to the transmission sprocket 10.

[0032] The inner side of the lifting chain 4 is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 13.

[0033] Specific implementation process: First, the cigarette packs to be stacked and conveyed are placed on the support plate 6 by the equipment from the previous process. The servo motor 2 is started, driving the transmission sprocket 10 to rotate. The transmission sprocket 10 drives the driven sprocket 11 to rotate via a chain, which in turn drives the shaft 3 to rotate. The shaft 3 drives the upper sprocket 12 to rotate, which in turn drives the lower sprocket 5 to rotate via the lifting chain 4. During this process, the lifting chain 4 rotates up and down. Since the inner side of the lifting chain 4 is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 13, the lifting chain 4 drives the lifting frame 13 to rise and fall, thus lifting and lowering the cigarette packs on the support plate 6. When the cigarette packs are lifted to the required height, the electric track 9 is started, moving the support plate 6 to the outside of the equipment. At this time, the cigarette pack group on the support plate 6 is sent out from inside the equipment bracket 1 and enters the turnover cart on one side of the equipment. Then, the electric track 9 drives the support plate 6 to reset. Simultaneously with the reset of the support plate 6, the lifting frame 13... The cylinder 7 on the top pushes the baffle 8 downward. The bottom end of the baffle 8 abuts against the top end of the support plate 6, preventing the cigarette packs from returning to their original position with the support plate 6. This allows the cigarette packs to automatically fall from the support plate 6 into the transfer cart and stack up. The whole process does not require manual lifting and moving of the cigarette packs, making it more convenient and efficient to use.
