Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cigarette packaging, and more specifically to a square cigarette packaging device. Background Technology

[0002] In the current cigarette packaging industry, standard cigarette boxes are typically stacked and individually packaged using a cigarette stacking machine. Square and other irregularly shaped cigarettes are packaged separately, and manual identification is used during delivery to combine different types of cigarettes from the same retailer for delivery. This technology, combined with the traditional cigarette stacking machine, completely solves this problem, achieving one pack of cigarettes per customer and significantly improving work efficiency. Existing cigarette stacking machines use symmetrical chain plate drives. Because the receiving plate can only move according to the structure of the entire chain, they have a higher damage rate when stacking square cigarette boxes. They are more suitable for stacking standard medium and slim cigarette boxes. Furthermore, due to its working principle, the stacked cigarette boxes fall into the receiving platform, and then a pushing device pushes the stacked cigarette boxes into the conveyor for the next packaging step. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art and provides a square cigarette packaging device.

[0004] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution.

[0005] A square cigarette packaging device includes: a first smoke inlet device, a multi-layer square cigarette stacking device, a boxed cigarette conveying device, a wrapping machine, a heat shrink oven, a second smoke inlet device, a smoke pressing device, a cigarette stacking machine, and a smoke pushing device. The multi-layer square cigarette stacking device is located at the outlet of the first smoke inlet device. The multi-layer square cigarette stacking device includes a receiving chamber, a buffer falling chamber, and a flip-plate control device. One or more buffer falling chambers are arranged sequentially from high to low on the frame at the bottom of the receiving chamber. Opening and closing flip-plates are located at the bottom of the receiving chamber and the buffer falling chambers. The opening and closing flip-plates are coordinated with the flip-plate control device for control of opening and closing. The boxed cigarette conveying device is positioned corresponding to the lowest layer of buffer falling chambers. A wrapping machine and a heat shrink oven are located at the outlet of the boxed cigarette conveying device. A smoke pressing device and a cigarette stacking machine are sequentially located at the outlet of the second smoke inlet device. A smoke pushing device is located at the receiving platform of the cigarette stacking machine. The position of the smoke pushing device matches that of the boxed cigarette conveying device.

[0006] There are two sets of smoke receiving chambers, which are horizontally arranged on the frame and separated by a partition.

[0007] The flap control device includes multiple sets of telescopic controllers, each of which is connected to the movable edge of the corresponding flap.

[0008] One edge of the opening and closing flap is rotatably connected to the corresponding smoke chamber, and the other edge of the opening and closing flap is connected to the controller corresponding to the flap control device.

[0009] The opening and closing flap includes a first plate and a second plate. The first plate and the second plate are symmetrically arranged to form a complete flap structure. The first plate and the second plate are rotatably connected to the left and right edges of the corresponding smoke compartments. The inner edges of the first plate and the second plate are connected to the controllers of the flap control device.

[0010] The frame is equipped with multiple flip-plate movement tracks, each of which is matched with a set of telescopic controllers and the connection end of the opening and closing flip-plates.

[0011] The flap movement track is provided with a fixed track on the mounting surface of the telescopic controller. The width of the fixed track is greater than the width of the flap movement track. The telescopic controller and the flap are rotatably connected by a rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is a two-section stepped round shaft structure. The stepped part with a larger diameter is set in the fixed track, and the stepped part with a smaller diameter is set in the flap movement track.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This solution overcomes the problem that existing cigarette stacking machines require additional equipment to place the stacked cigarette boxes onto a conveyor belt for transportation. Since the receiving compartment of the square multi-layer cigarette stacking device can directly connect with the conveyor belt to arrange the cigarette boxes into neat layers, it is suitable for irregularly shaped cigarette boxes without the problem of cigarette boxes being difficult to arrange, causing jamming or falling and resulting in box damage, as is the case with existing cigarette stacking machines. After the cigarette boxes are arranged, the neat layers are dropped layer by layer until they fall into the conveyor belt. Repeating this action effectively stacks multiple layers of cigarette boxes. It can effectively adapt to irregularly shaped cigarette boxes, and the stacked cigarette boxes can be stacked directly in the conveyor device, avoiding the need for additional equipment and effectively improving efficiency.

[0013] Based on this, the device adopts a two-production-line design, which can make packaging more efficient. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below through specific embodiments.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] A square cigarette packaging device includes: a first smoke inlet device 10, a multi-layer square cigarette stacking device, a cigarette box conveying device 11, a wrapping machine 12, a heat shrink oven 13, a second smoke inlet device 14, a smoke pressing device 15, a cigarette stacking machine 16, and a smoke pushing device 17. The multi-layer square cigarette stacking device is located at the smoke outlet of the first smoke inlet device 10. The multi-layer square cigarette stacking device includes a receiving chamber 1, a buffer falling chamber 2, and a flip-plate control device 3. One or more buffer falling chambers 2 are sequentially arranged from high to low on the frame 4 at the bottom of the receiving chamber 1. The bottom of the cigarette compartment 1 and the buffer falling cigarette compartment 2 are provided with opening and closing flaps 5. The opening and closing flaps 5 are set in conjunction with the flap control device 3 to control the opening and closing. The cigarette box conveying device is set in correspondence with the bottommost buffer falling cigarette compartment 2. The cigarette box conveying device 11 is provided with a wrapping machine 12 and a heat shrink oven 13 at the smoke outlet. The second smoke inlet device 14 is provided with a pressing device 15 and a stacking machine 16 in sequence at the smoke outlet. The stacking machine 16 is provided with a pushing device 17 at the smoke receiving platform. The position of the pushing device 17 matches that of the cigarette box conveying device 11.

[0031] There are two sets of smoke receiving chambers 1, which are horizontally arranged on the frame 4, and a partition 6 is provided between the two smoke receiving chambers 1.

[0032] The flap control device 3 includes multiple sets of telescopic controllers 301, each of which is connected to the movable edge of the corresponding opening and closing flap 5.

[0033] One edge of the opening and closing flap 5 is rotatably connected to the corresponding smoke chamber, and the other edge of the opening and closing flap 5 is connected to the controller corresponding to the flap control device 3.

[0034] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Figure 1-7 As shown, the first smoke inlet device 10 and the square cigarette multi-layer stacking device form an independent cigarette stacking production line. Boxed cigarettes are fed into the square cigarette multi-layer stacking device via the first smoke inlet device 10. In this embodiment, to accommodate the dual-smoke chamber structure of the square cigarette multi-layer stacking device, a smoke separation device is provided on the first smoke inlet device 10. This device uses partitions to separate the boxed cigarettes into two corresponding left and right conveying channels. After being stacked by the square cigarette multi-layer stacking device, the boxes are further conveyed via the boxed cigarette conveying device 11, and finally wrapped by the wrapping machine 12 and sent to the heat shrink oven 13 for blister packaging. The second smoke inlet device 14, together with the smoke pressing device 15 and the stacking machine 16, form another independent cigarette stacking production line. Boxed cigarettes pass through the second smoke inlet device 14 and the smoke pressing device 15 in sequence, and are then stacked by the stacking machine 16. The stacked boxed cigarettes are finally pushed into the boxed cigarette conveying device 11 by the smoke pushing device 12 for further packaging.

[0035] Preferably, in this embodiment, the first cigarette inlet device 10, the second cigarette inlet device 14, and the cigarette box conveying device 11 all use conveyor belts. The conveyor belt of the cigarette box conveying device 11 is divided into several compartments by partitions at equal intervals to facilitate cigarette box transportation. The wrapping machine 12 is used to wrap the stacked cigarette boxes, and after wrapping, it is sent to the heat shrink oven 13 for thermoforming to complete the packaging. The cigarette pressing device 15 is equipped with a sponge belt pressing device and a laser height measuring device. The laser height measuring device measures the height of the cigarette boxes on the conveyor belt, and adjusts the height of the sponge belt pressing device accordingly, thus adapting the cigarette boxes to the desired height. The function of the cigarette pressing device 15 is to cooperate with the cigarette stacking machine 16 to allow an appropriate number of cigarette boxes to enter. When the specified number of cigarette boxes is reached in the cigarette stacking machine 16, the sponge belt pressing device moves downward, moderately squeezing the cigarette boxes on the conveyor line to prevent them from moving forward. At this time, the cigarette stacking machine 16 begins operation. Furthermore, the sponge belt pressing device can be controlled by an electric cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder lifting device. After the cigarette stacking machine 16 stacks the cigarette boxes, the cigarette pushing device 12 pushes the cigarette boxes on the receiving platform into the cigarette box conveying device 11 for subsequent packaging. The cigarette pushing device 12 uses an electric cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder telescopic device to control the operation of the pushing plate.

[0036] Furthermore, the working principle of the square multi-layer cigarette stacking device is as follows: Boxes of cigarettes are sequentially fed into the receiving chamber 1 via a conveyor belt. When the receiving chamber 1 is full, the flip-plate control device 3 controls the opening and closing of the flip-plate 5, allowing the arranged boxes of cigarettes to fall into the buffer drop chamber 2. Upon receiving the boxes, the buffer drop chamber 2 also opens its flip-plate 5, allowing the cigarettes to fall into the next layer of buffer drop chamber 2, repeating the above actions until the boxes of cigarettes fall onto the designated conveyor belt. The multi-layer cigarette stacking function is achieved through this sequential stacking.

[0037] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the number of buffer falling smoke chambers 2 of the square multi-layer smoke stacking device is 1, but in actual use, the number can be freely increased according to the height.

[0038] Furthermore, the telescopic controller 301 controls the movable end of the opening and closing flap 5 through the telescopic end, enabling it to perform opening and closing movements. Preferably, the telescopic controller 301 can be an electric cylinder telescopic device or a pneumatic cylinder telescopic device.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] The opening and closing flap 5 includes a first plate 501 and a second plate 502. The first plate 501 and the second plate 502 are symmetrically arranged to form a complete flap structure. The first plate 501 and the second plate 502 are rotatably connected to the left and right edges of the corresponding smoke chamber. The inner edges of the first plate 501 and the second plate 502 are connected to the controller corresponding to the flap control device 3.

[0041] like Figure 8-12As shown, unlike the opening and closing flap 5 structure of the square multi-layer cigarette stacking device in Embodiment 1, the opening and closing flap 5 in Embodiment 2 adopts a symmetrical arrangement of the first plate 501 and the second plate 502 to realize the function of opening and closing to make the cigarette box fall.

[0042] Example 3

[0043] The frame 4 is equipped with multiple flip-plate movement tracks 7, each of which is matched with a set of telescopic controllers 301 and the connection end of the opening and closing flip-plates 5.

[0044] A fixed track 8 is provided on the mounting surface of the flip-plate movement track 7 facing the telescopic controller 301. The width of the fixed track 8 is greater than the width of the flip-plate movement track 7. The telescopic controller 301 and the opening and closing flip plate 5 are rotatably connected by a rotating shaft 9. The rotating shaft 9 is a two-section stepped round shaft structure. The stepped part with a larger diameter of the rotating shaft 9 is set in the fixed track 8, and the stepped part with a smaller diameter of the rotating shaft 9 is set in the flip-plate movement track 7.

[0045] like Figure 13 As shown, based on Embodiments 1 and 2, in order to enable the telescopic controller 301 of the flip control device 3 of the square multi-layer stacked smoke device to better control the opening and closing of the flip 5, a flip movement track 7 is set on the frame 4. The telescopic controller 301 sets the rotating shaft 9 in the flip movement track 7 so that the linkage end of the flip 5 can move according to the track. This not only facilitates control, but also increases the stability of the device and reduces the force on the transmission components.

[0046] Furthermore, in order to make the movement more stable, a fixed track 8 is set up, which increases the stability of the overall structure.

[0047] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above, but the content described is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model and should not be considered as limiting the scope of implementation of this utility model. All equivalent changes and improvements made in accordance with the claims of this utility model should still fall within the patent coverage of this utility model.
