[0003] Cigarette filters are a crucial component of cigarettes, and their quality directly impacts the overall quality of the cigarette, including sensory appeal, filter collapse index, and filtration efficiency. The production of granular heated tobacco products requires multiple material conveying lines from the material silo to the production unit. Current technology typically uses multiple vibrating discs to divide the material into these lines. However, these vibrating discs are space-consuming, noisy, and complex, leading to high costs. Furthermore, the high density of the filter rods causes problems such as squeezing, pressing, blockage, and damage to their appearance during feeding, necessitating frequent shutdowns to clean up misaligned rods and significantly impacting production efficiency.

[0007] As a further technical solution, the guide holes are arranged in an array on the guide plate, and the diameter of the guide holes matches the outer diameter of the guide tube.

[0008] As a further technical solution, the guide tube is a hollow cylindrical tube, and the inner diameter of the guide tube matches the diameter of the filter rod.

[0009] As a further technical solution, the guide tube is fixedly installed on the circular hole of the fixing plate, and the upper and lower ends of the guide tube extend out of the fixing plate by a set distance.

[0010] As a further technical solution, the upper end of the guide tube is placed inside the guide hole, and the lower end of the guide tube is connected to the filter rod conveying tube.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the above-described embodiments of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] The cigarette filter rod feeding device provided by this utility model can realize multi-channel feeding of cigarette filter rods through the set hopper device and the material distribution device. Compared with the existing multi-channel feeding by setting multiple vibrating plates, it reduces the complexity of the equipment, reduces noise, and reduces the footprint of the equipment.

[0018] The cigarette filter rod feeding device provided by this utility model has multiple guide holes on the guide plate and multiple guide tubes on the fixed plate.

Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this invention have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] In a typical embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, a cigarette filter rod feeding device is provided, including a hopper 101, a fixing plate 202, and a cylinder 3; a guide plate 102 is provided at the bottom of the hopper 101, and multiple guide holes 103 are formed on the guide plate 102; multiple guide tubes 201 are provided above the fixing plate 202, and the guide tubes 201 correspond one-to-one with the guide holes 103; the cylinder 3 is connected to the bottom of the fixing plate 202; as shown... Figure 2 As shown, the hopper 101, guide plate 102, and guide hole 103 constitute the hopper device 1. The hopper device 1 is used to hold cigarette filter rods, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the guide tube 201 and the fixing plate 202 form a channeling device 2, which is used to realize the channeling and conveying of cigarette filter rods.

[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, the guide holes 103 are arranged in a row on the guide plate 102. The diameter of the guide holes 103 matches the outer diameter of the guide tube 201 so that the guide tube 201 can move up and down within the guide holes 103. The hopper 101 is a rectangular hopper, and the guide plate 102 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the hopper 101.

[0032] like Figure 3As shown, the guide tube 201 is a hollow cylindrical tube, and the inner diameter of the guide tube 201 matches the diameter of the filter rod so that the filter rod can fall into the guide tube 201 to realize the conveying of the filter rod.

[0033] Furthermore, the guide tube 201 is fixedly installed on the circular hole of the fixing plate 202, and the upper and lower ends of the guide tube 201 extend out of the fixing plate 202 by a set distance.

[0034] Furthermore, the upper end of the guide tube 201 is placed inside the guide hole 103, and the guide tube 201 can move a set distance relative to the guide hole 103. The lower end of the guide tube 201 is connected to the filter rod conveying pipe, and the filter rod falling into the guide tube 201 is conveyed to the cigarette production device through the filter rod conveying pipe.

[0035] In this embodiment, the cylinder body of the cylinder 3 is fixedly mounted on the lower surface of the fixing plate 202. The piston rod of the cylinder 3 passes through the fixing plate 202, and the end of the piston rod is connected to the lower surface of the guide plate 102. Meanwhile, the fixing plate 202 is supported and fixed by a bracket (not shown in the figure). Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, during operation, the fixed plate 202 and the cylinder 3 remain stationary, while the piston rod end of the cylinder 3 drives the hopper device 1 to move up and down, thereby realizing the separate conveying of cigarette filter rods.

[0036] In other embodiments of this example, the guide plate 102 and the cylinder body of the cylinder 3 are both supported and fixed by a bracket. The piston rod end of the cylinder 3 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the fixing plate 202. During operation, the hopper device 1 and the cylinder body of the cylinder remain stationary, and the piston rod end of the cylinder drives the channeling device 2 to move up and down, thereby realizing the channeling and conveying of cigarette filter rods.

[0037] The working process of the cigarette filter rod feeding device provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, the hopper device 1 is embedded into the channeling device 2 through the guide hole 102. The hopper device 1 moves up and down relative to the channeling device 2 through the cylinder 3. The form of up and down movement is not limited to the cylinder, and other power devices such as motors can also be used.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, the cylinder 3 is in the extended state, the hopper 101 is in the high position, the guide tube 201 is submerged in the guide hole 103, the hopper 101 is filled with filter rods and other materials, and the filter rods and other materials have a certain probability of falling into the guide hole 103 and falling into the guide tube 201 along the guide hole 103, thus completing the material separation function. Other filter rods that do not fall are stuck above the guide hole 103.

[0040] like Figure 5 As shown, the cylinder 3 is in the retracted state, the hopper 101 moves downward, the guide tube 201 extends out from the guide hole 103, pushes out the filter rod stuck in the guide hole 103, and then repeats the reciprocating operation.

[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
