Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of calibration tooling, more particularly to a cigarette rod stacking mold box calibration tooling. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the process of cigarette production, after the rod-packed cigarettes pass through the packaging link, they usually need to be boxed. In order to efficiently transport the rod-packed cigarettes from the packaging line to the boxing equipment, a stacking mold box is usually used for transfer. This stacking mold box is usually in a U-shaped structure, and the rod-packed cigarettes are placed in the groove of the U-shaped structure and transported to the next station by a conveying device.

[0003] However, in actual production, especially in long-term and high-intensity use, the side edges of the U-shaped stacking mold box, i.e. the two side walls of the U-shaped structure, are prone to deformation, such as bending outward or twisting. This deformation causes the stacked rod-packed cigarettes to be unstable during transportation. In normal production, the rod-packed cigarettes need to travel a certain distance after being stacked in the stacking mold box. In order to facilitate the entry and exit of the rod-packed cigarettes, the side edges are designed with chamfers, and the friction is insufficient, causing the rod-packed cigarettes to shake greatly during transportation. The deformed mold box undoubtedly amplifies this shaking, which causes the rod-packed cigarettes to fall during transportation, thereby seriously affecting production efficiency and increasing labor costs.

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, an effective device is needed to correct the deformed stacking mold box and restore its original shape, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the rod-packed cigarette transportation process, improving production efficiency and reducing product loss.

[0005] At present, although there are some toolings for correcting sheet metal parts or similar structures, they are not usually suitable for this specific U-shaped stacking mold box and are not very targeted. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a tooling designed specifically for correcting rod-packed cigarette stacking mold boxes to meet the actual production needs. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a cigarette rod stacking mold box calibration tooling, which fixes the stacking mold box by positioning buckles and then uses a pressure rod to correct the shape of the stacking mold box using the principle of leverage, so that it returns to the original vertical state.

[0027] It should be noted that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc. shown in the drawings of the present application are only used to cooperate with the disclosed content, to be understood and read by those skilled in the art, and do not have technical significance. Any modification of the structure, change of the proportion relationship or adjustment of the size, which does not affect the effect and purpose that can be achieved by the present application, should still fall within the scope of the disclosed technical content.

[0028] The present application is written in a progressive manner in this embodiment.

[0029] As shown in Figure 1 , the utility model discloses a cigarette stick stacking mould box calibration tool, which mainly comprises: a tool platform 1, a mould box side limit block 2, a mould box bottom limit block 3, a mould box side pressing block 4 and a fixing assembly 5.

[0030] As shown in Figure 1 , in the embodiment, the tool platform 1 provides an installation operation platform for the calibration tool, which facilitates the correction of the stacking mould box. On the tool platform 1, the mould box side limit block 2 and the mould box bottom limit block 3 are arranged perpendicularly to the installation plane of the tool platform 1 corresponding to the external dimensions of the stacking mould box. Specifically, the two side edges and the bottom edge of the stacking mould box are limited, so that the stacking mould box can be accurately placed on the tool platform 1.

[0031] At the same time, the mould box side pressing block 4 is rotatably connected on the tool platform 1. The mould box side pressing block 4 is hingedly connected with the mould box side limit block 2 on one side. The fixing assembly 5 is further arranged on the mould box side limit block 2 on the side, so that the mould box side pressing block 4 and the mould box side limit block 2 on the side, and the tool platform 1 are vertically fixed, for correcting the outer side surface of the stacking mould box.

[0032] The specific calibration process is as follows: By utilizing the lever principle, the operator can push the side pressure block 4 of the mold box to apply pressure to the side of the mold box; after applying pressure multiple times, observe the gap between the side of the mold box and the side pressure block 4 of the mold box; if there is a gap and the gap is less than 3MM, it means that the distance between the side plates of the mold box meets the usage requirements; if there is no gap, repeat the pressure action and check until it is qualified and meets the transportation requirements;

[0033] Furthermore, even using the lever principle, restoring the stacked mold box still requires a considerable force. To prevent the tooling itself from deforming and losing its calibration function, in this embodiment, the tooling platform 1, the mold box side limiting block 2, the mold box bottom limiting block 3, and the mold box side pressing block 4 are made of alloy metal, and the fixed parts are subjected to quenching treatment to enhance durability.

[0034] Preferably, the specific structure of the mold box side limiting block 2 in this embodiment is further defined to ensure that the support and positioning of the stacked mold boxes are firm, such as... Figure 1 As shown in this embodiment, the side limiting block 2 of the mold box is also provided with a diagonal bracing structure 6 behind the contact surface with the stacking mold box. The diagonal bracing structure 6 can provide greater support force to the outer surface of the stacking mold box, thereby ensuring the stability of the support positioning and realizing the deformation correction of the stacking mold box.

[0035] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the rotating connection structure of the mold side pressure block 4 is further defined, such as... Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, in order to better rotate and connect on the tooling platform 1, the mold box side pressure block 4 is rotatably connected to the tooling platform 1 through the rotating shaft hinge 7, thereby enabling the hinge connection between the mold box side pressure block 4 and the mold box side limiting block 2.

[0036] Preferably, in this embodiment, the specific structural arrangement of the mold box side limiting block 2 is further defined, such as... Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the specific number of the mold box side limiting blocks 2 is three sets. One set is connected to the side of the mold box side pressing block 4, and two sets are connected to the other side. The two sides are arranged accordingly, and the mold box side limiting blocks 2 of one set side are arranged on the center line of the mold box side limiting blocks 2 of the two sets side sides.

[0037] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the mating structure of the mold box side pressing block 4 and the mold box side limiting block 2 is further defined, such as... Figure 1As shown, in order to provide uniform external force for correction in the embodiment, the side limit block 2 is arranged in the center of the inside of the side pressing block 4 of the mold box. In order to avoid limiting the lever stroke of the side pressing block 4 of the mold box, a through hole 8 is arranged on the side pressing block 4, and the size of the through hole 8 matches the size of the side limit block 2 of the mold box, so that the side pressing block 4 of the mold box can smoothly pass through without being limited by the side limit block 2 during the movement.

[0038] Further, the cooperation structure of the side pressing block 4 and the side limit block 2 in the embodiment is further limited, as shown in Figure 1 As shown, in order to reduce the operation stroke of the side pressing block 4 of the mold box during each correction operation, a limiting plate 9 is further arranged on the side limit block 2. The limiting plate 9 can make the side pressing block 4 of the mold box not completely lie on the tool platform 1, thereby reducing the operation stroke of each correction operation and reducing the labor burden.

[0039] As preferred, in order to improve the convenience of the calibration tool, as shown in Figure 1 As shown, in the embodiment, the tool platform 1 is further provided with a moving assembly 10. Since the stacked mold boxes and the tool itself have a certain weight, it is inconvenient to carry. In addition, the stacked mold boxes are distributed in a scattered range in the working environment, and the distances are far apart. Therefore, the calibration tool needs to be operated in multiple places. The moving assembly 10 can facilitate the movement of the tool platform 1. Therefore, in the embodiment, the moving assembly 10 is a universal wheel, which is uniformly arranged around the bottom of the tool platform 1, so as to facilitate the movement of the tool platform 1 in the working environment.

[0040] Further, the moving assembly 10 in the embodiment is further limited, as shown in Figure 1 As shown, in the embodiment, each universal wheel is separately provided with a brake 11, which can ensure that the tool platform 1 will not move during the fixing operation, so as to avoid correction errors or safety accidents.

[0041] As preferred, the specific structure of the side pressing block 4 of the mold box in the embodiment is further limited, as shown in Figure 1 As shown, in the embodiment, the top end of the side pressing block 4 of the mold box is further provided with an extended handle 12. The extended lever arm facilitates the correction of the mold box, so as to save the physical strength of the operator.

[0042] As preferred, the specific structure of the fixing assembly 5 in the embodiment is further limited, as shown in Figure 1As shown, in the embodiment, the fixing assembly 5 is specifically a limiting bolt, which is inserted into the side edge limiting block 2 and the side edge pressing block 4 of the mold box, so that the side edge limiting block 2 and the side edge pressing block 4 are kept relatively fixed, and it is convenient to apply pressure to the side plate of the mold box for orthopedics.

[0043] The above description of disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to carry out or use the present application. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present application. Therefore, the present application will not be limited to these embodiments shown herein, but will accord with the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
