Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a guiding device, and more particularly to an outlet guiding device for a packaging machine. Background Technology
[0002] The GDX2 packaging machine is currently the mainstream model for hard-pack and hard-strip packaging in China. Its features include simple operation, reliable performance, and high adaptability. It is often modified to produce various sizes of medium and slim cigarettes in irregularly shaped packaging. Its No. 8 roller is primarily responsible for receiving the tobacco packs, after both sides have been coated with adhesive and dried, from the No. 7 drying roller. It also wraps and binds the coated packs to prevent the seams from popping open. Then, it is conveyed through the outlet guide plate to the horizontal conveyor channel. The upper and lower conveyor belts in the horizontal conveyor channel provide prolonged pressure and clamping to ensure good adhesion and drying / curing of the tobacco pack's seams.
[0003] When the cigarette pack is pushed out from the No. 8 wheel, it is in a side-standing position. The original No. 8 wheel outlet guide plate can stably press and hold a regular cigarette pack. Due to the change in cigarette product specifications, the side width of the medium-sized cigarette pack is smaller than that of the regular cigarette pack, and the adhesive surface is narrower. In addition, the adhesive on both sides has not been completely dried and cured at this time. The No. 8 wheel outlet guide plate cannot effectively press the cigarette pack, and the edges of the sides are prone to curling and poor adhesion. This causes the cigarette pack to be conveyed skewed, resulting in blockage of the horizontal conveyor channel, causing a large amount of raw and auxiliary materials to be consumed. In severe cases, it can also break the conveyor belt, damage parts, and ultimately affect the production efficiency of the equipment. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an outlet guide device for a packaging machine to solve the technical problems in the prior art. It can effectively solve the problem that the existing guide plate cannot clamp the cigarette packs of medium size.
[0005] This utility model provides an outlet guiding device for a packaging machine, including a pushing device, a supporting component, and a pressing component. The supporting component includes a lower guide plate, and the pressing component includes an upper guide plate. After the cigarette pack is pushed by the pushing device, it is pressed and clamped between the upper guide plate and the lower guide plate.
[0006] In the aforementioned packaging machine outlet guide device, preferably, the support assembly further includes two lower fixing members, which are fixed at both ends of the lower guide plate, and the top surfaces of the two lower fixing members are higher than the top surface of the lower guide plate.
[0007] In the aforementioned packaging machine outlet guide device, preferably, the length of the lower guide plate is 3 or 4 times the width of the middle cigarette pack, and the length of the upper guide plate is the same as the length of the lower guide plate.
[0008] In the aforementioned packaging machine outlet guiding device, preferably, the outlet end of the support assembly is provided with a lower conveying device. The lower conveying device includes a lower support plate, a lower transmission belt, a lower driven pulley, and a lower driving pulley. There are two lower support plates, which are arranged opposite to each other. Two lower fixing members are respectively fixedly connected to the two lower support plates. The lower driven pulley is rotatably installed between the two lower support plates. The lower driving pulley is rotatably installed on the packaging machine frame. The lower transmission belt is installed on the lower driven pulley and the lower driving pulley.
[0009] In the aforementioned packaging machine outlet guide device, preferably, a horizontal conveying channel lower guide rail is fixedly installed on the top of the two lower support plates, and a belt tensioning wheel is rotatably installed between the two lower support plates.
[0010] In the aforementioned packaging machine outlet guide device, preferably, the pressing component further includes two upper fixing members, which are fixed at both ends of the upper guide plate, and the bottom surfaces of the two upper fixing members are lower than the bottom surface of the upper guide plate.
[0011] In the aforementioned packaging machine outlet guide device, preferably, a horizontal conveying channel upper guide rail is fixedly connected to one end of the inner side of the upper fixing member near the bottom, and an upper support plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the horizontal conveying channel upper guide rail near both sides, and an upper driven pulley is rotatably installed between the two upper support plates.
[0012] In the aforementioned packaging machine outlet guide device, preferably, an upper drive pulley is rotatably mounted on the packaging machine frame, and an upper drive belt is mounted on the upper driven pulley and the upper drive pulley.
[0013] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model includes a pushing device, a supporting component, and a pressing component. The supporting component includes a lower guide plate, and the pressing component includes an upper guide plate. After being pushed by the pushing device, the cigarette pack is pressed and clamped between the upper and lower guide plates. This utility model uses the supporting component and the pressing component to press and clamp the cigarette pack. During the pressing and clamping process, the cigarette packs are mutually laterally limited and connected, thereby allowing several cigarette packs to move forward and backward, restricting the opening of the cigarette packs, and ensuring that the overlaps on both sides of the cigarette packs are tightly aligned and glued. This reduces problems such as misalignment of the cigarette packs caused by poor adhesion of the overlaps, thus ensuring production efficiency and product quality. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0019] Embodiments of this utility model: such as Figures 1-3 As shown, a packaging machine outlet guide device includes a pushing device, a support component 2 and a pressing component 3. The support component 2 includes a lower guide plate 4, and the pressing component 3 includes an upper guide plate 5. After the cigarette pack 6 is pushed by the pushing device, it is pressed and clamped between the upper guide plate 5 and the lower guide plate 4.
[0020] The pushing device is an existing device on the cigarette machine. The pushing device is responsible for pushing the cigarette pack 6 carried on the surface of the conveyor wheel on the cigarette machine between the support component 2 and the pressing component 3. The cigarette pack 6 that first enters between the lower guide plate 4 and the upper guide plate 5 is squeezed and moves into the conveying space of the support component 2 and the pressing component 3. The support component 2 and the pressing component 3 guide and convey the cigarette pack 6 to complete the horizontal conveying of the cigarette pack 6.
[0021] To prevent the cigarette packs 6 from skewing during transport when moving between the lower guide plate 4 and the upper guide plate 5, and to minimize changes to the original structural layout of this part of the machine, given that the width of a typical middle cigarette pack is 14.5mm in existing technology, this embodiment preferably allows the lower guide plate 4 and the upper guide plate 5 to hold three or four cigarette packs 6. Correspondingly, their lengths are 3*14.5mm or 4*14.5mm, meaning their lengths are 3 or 4 times the width of the middle cigarette pack. This design ensures a smoother and more stable transport process for the cigarette packs 6, while also allowing for lateral positioning and connection between the cigarette packs 6, thus preventing the overlap and bonding on both sides of the cigarette packs 6 from opening.
[0022] Furthermore, the support assembly 2 also includes two lower fixing members 7, which are fixed at both ends of the lower guide plate 4, with the top surfaces of the two lower fixing members 7 higher than the top surface of the lower guide plate 4. The outlet end of the support assembly 2 is provided with a lower conveying device, which includes a lower support plate 8, a lower transmission belt 9, a lower driven pulley 10, and a lower driving pulley 11. There are two lower support plates 8, which are arranged opposite to each other. The two lower fixing members 7 are fixedly connected to the two lower support plates 8 respectively. The lower driven pulley 10 is rotatably installed between the two lower support plates 8, and the lower driving pulley 11 is rotatably installed on the packaging machine frame. The lower transmission belt 9 is installed on the lower driven pulley 10 and the lower driving pulley 11. A horizontal conveying channel lower guide rail 12 is fixedly installed on the top of the two lower support plates 8.
[0023] The packaging machine frame is also equipped with a drive device for rotating the lower drive pulley 11. Since this part is prior art, it is not shown in the figure.
[0024] Considering that the side dimensions of the medium-thin cigarette pack are smaller than those of the regular cigarette pack, and that the adhesive on both sides has not yet fully dried and cured, the No. 8 wheel outlet guide plate cannot effectively press the cigarette pack 6. Therefore, a belt tensioning wheel 13 is rotatably installed between the two lower support plates 8. The belt tensioning wheel 13 is used to adjust the lower transmission belt 9 to control the gap between the cigarette packs 6.
[0025] The pressing assembly 3 also includes two upper fixing members 14, which are fixed at both ends of the upper guide plate 5. The bottom surfaces of the two upper fixing members 14 are lower than the bottom surfaces of the upper guide plate 5. A horizontal conveying channel upper guide rail 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the inner side of the upper fixing member 14 near the bottom. An upper support plate 16 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the horizontal conveying channel upper guide rail 15 near both sides. An upper driven pulley 17 is rotatably installed between the two upper support plates 16.
[0026] An upper drive pulley 18 is rotatably mounted on the packaging machine frame, and an upper drive belt 1 is mounted on the upper driven pulley 17 and the upper drive pulley 18. Similarly, a drive device for driving the upper drive pulley 18 to rotate is provided on the packaging machine frame. The drive device is prior art and therefore is not shown in the figure.
[0027] The upper guide plate 5 restricts the tobacco pack 6, and the drive pulley 18 drives the upper transmission belt 1 to move the tobacco pack 6 smoothly. This, combined with the synchronously moving lower transmission belt 9, ensures the tobacco pack 6 moves smoothly to the discharge port. This effectively solves the problem of horizontal conveying channel blockage caused by skewed tobacco pack conveying.
[0028] The above description, based on the embodiments shown in the drawings, details the structure, features, and effects of this utility model. The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the scope of implementation of this utility model is not limited to what is shown in the drawings. Any changes made in accordance with the concept of this utility model, or modifications to equivalent embodiments, that do not exceed the spirit covered by the specification and drawings, shall be within the protection scope of this utility model.
