The speeds of the first transmission belt 11 and the second transmission belt 21 are greater than the speed of the steamer delivery line. In this example, the first power device is a 1.5KW motor, the first transmission belt 11 is made of a food-grade 5×20m flat belt, the second power device is also a 1.5KW motor, and the second transmission belt 21 is also a 5×20m flat belt. The second transmission belt 21 is used to quickly deliver the face boxes taken out by the face box taking device 10 and directly push the face boxes to the face box number arrangement device 30. In this way, the face boxes delivered by the steamer delivery line can be quickly taken out one by one, and the preparation for the face box number arrangement device 30 is completed.
[0032] In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The face box number arrangement device 30 includes a rack 31, a plurality of roller shafts 32 arranged side by side on the rack 31, and a third power device for driving the roller shafts 32 to rotate. The length of the rack 31 is adapted to the total length of the 4 face boxes. The first sensor 22 is arranged at one end of the second transmission belt 21 close to the face box number arrangement device 30. When the first sensor 22 senses one face box delivered by the second transmission belt 21, the starting signal of the third power device is triggered. In this example, the third power device is a 1.5KW motor, and 20 roller shafts 32 are arranged. In this way, the face boxes can be sequentially pushed to the end of the rack 31 (such as Figure 1The length of the rack 31 is adapted to the total length of a predetermined number of four face boxes, so that the rack 31 can store four face boxes at a time and push them into the dryer conveying line at one time by the face box pushing device 40 to complete the task of inputting four face boxes in a row and realize automatic sorting. The first sensor 22 is arranged to provide a starting signal to the third power device to start the rotation of the roller shaft 32 and transfer the face boxes to the end of the rack 31, and four face boxes can be stored on the rack 31 after a period of time. Preferably, the two adjacent roller shafts 32 are synchronously driven by a chain, and the third power device is power-connected with one of the roller shafts 32. Thus, all the roller shafts 32 can be driven by the chain transmission to rotate stably and transfer the face boxes to the end of the rack 31.
[0033] As a preferred embodiment, the outer periphery of the 20 roller shafts 32 is coaxially fixedly connected with a wear-resistant roller 33, which is made of stainless steel in this example. Since the face box pushing device 40 will cause wear to the roller shaft 32 when pushing the face boxes on the roller shaft 32, the wear-resistant roller 33 made of stainless steel is arranged on the outer periphery to improve the wear resistance of the device.
[0034] In another specific embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 The end of the rack 31 is provided with a limit sensor 34, which triggers the pushing action of the face box pushing device 40 when the limit sensor 34 senses that four face boxes are transferred to the end of the rack 31. Thus, the limit sensor 34 arranged at the end of the rack 31 can determine that four face boxes in a group have all arrived on the roller shaft 32 of the rack 31 and send a starting signal to the face box pushing device 40 to push these face boxes together in a row into the dryer conveying line to realize automatic sorting.
[0035] As a preferred embodiment, the second sensor 35 is arranged at a position close to the position of the limit sensor 34 of the rack 31, the first sensor 22 is a point control, the second sensor 35 is a long control, and the signals of the first sensor 22 and the second sensor 35 are communicated. When the first sensor 22 senses a face box conveyed by the second transmission belt 21, the long control signal of the second sensor 35 is sent to start the third power device to operate. When the second sensor 35 senses that the face box is close to the end of the rack 31, the stop signal is sent to the second transmission belt 21. The reset sensor (not shown in the figure) is arranged at a position corresponding to the reset action of the face box pushing device 40. When the reset sensor senses that the face box pushing device 40 reaches the reset position, the restart signal is sent to the second transmission belt 21.

When a group of face boxes move to the end of the rack 31, the second sensor 35 senses the group of face boxes, that is, the stop signal is sent to the second transmission belt 21 of the face box express conveying device 20 to stop conveying the face boxes to the rack 31. The number of the group of face boxes has reached the predetermined number of 4, and the face box pushing device 40 can be started. After the face box pushing device 40 is pushed out, the reset is started, the reset sensor senses, and the start signal is sent to the second transmission belt 21, indicating that a new group of 4 face boxes can be conveyed to the rack 31. The previous steps are repeated.
