Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of logistics management technology, and in particular to an automatic association mechanism for cigarette delivery box numbers. Background Technology

[0002] Cigarettes are tobacco products made by rolling tobacco leaves into strips using cigarette paper. Cigarette delivery boxes are specialized boxes used for bulk transportation and distribution of cigarettes, ensuring proper storage and safe transport during the distribution process. The automatic box number association mechanism for cigarette delivery boxes is an intelligent system component built on information technology. It accurately and quickly links box numbers with corresponding order, logistics information, inventory data, and other key elements. Its function is to significantly improve the level of refined management in the cigarette logistics and distribution chain, making the entire trajectory of each box of cigarettes traceable from the warehouse to the retail terminal, reducing errors such as misdelivery and omissions, and greatly improving delivery efficiency and accuracy.

[0003] An automatic association mechanism for cigarette delivery box numbers typically comprises a barcode scanning module, a data transmission module, a central processing unit, a storage module, and an association matching module. Its working principle is as follows: First, the barcode scanning module quickly and accurately scans and reads the box number on the cigarette delivery box, converting the box number information into a digital signal. Then, the data transmission module transmits the read box number information to the central processing unit in real time. Upon receiving the box number information, the central processing unit stores it in the storage module and simultaneously processes the data in the association matching module, quickly and accurately associating the box number with pre-stored order information, logistics routes, vehicle information, and retail customer information. Throughout this process, all modules work collaboratively, achieving automatic association between the cigarette delivery box number and various related information through box number identification, transmission, processing, and association. This ensures the accuracy and efficiency of the cigarette delivery process and provides strong support for logistics management and subsequent traceability.

[0004] In existing technologies, due to mechanical vibrations during transportation and errors caused by manual placement, delivery boxes often shift before the box number is scanned. Some mechanisms struggle to automatically correct these shifts, resulting in inaccurate box number scanning. This affects the subsequent automatic association of box numbers with information and the accuracy and timeliness of the entire logistics distribution. To address this issue, an automatic association mechanism for cigarette delivery box numbers is proposed. Utility Model Content

This drives the roller to contact and align the delivery box. At the same time, the spring is stretched, and the correction is completed by reversing the motor, which resets all components. The spring releases potential energy to drive the right-angle plate and the roller to reset for the next correction. This realizes automatic correction of cigarette delivery boxes, thereby ensuring that the box number is accurately and efficiently scanned and identified, improving the level of information management and work efficiency of goods, reducing human operation errors, and thus helping to optimize the entire delivery process and ensure the stability and orderliness of goods transportation.

[0036] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0037] Reference Figures 2 to 4This utility model provides an embodiment of an automatic cigarette delivery box number association mechanism, comprising multiple fixed posts 1, which serve as the foundation for stabilizing the entire device. A conveyor belt 2 is fixedly connected to adjacent sides of the multiple fixed posts 1, and the conveyor belt 2 sequentially transports the delivery boxes to various working areas. Scanning boxes 3 are fixedly connected to both sides of the conveyor belt 2, providing space for the installation and operation of subsequent mechanisms. Multiple support columns 4 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the scanning box 3, further enhancing the stability of the scanning box 3 and ensuring the stability and reliability of the entire mechanism during long-term operation. A scanning mechanism is fixedly connected to the top of the scanning box 3, capable of reading the box number information on the delivery box and transmitting this information to the association system for subsequent processing. A correction mechanism is fixedly connected to the top of the scanning box 3, ensuring that the delivery box is in the correct position before scanning the number. A turning mechanism is fixedly connected to one end of the conveyor belt 2, used to turn and divert the delivery boxes after the entire scanning mechanism has scanned the box numbers.

[0038] The correction mechanism includes a motor 7, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top of the scanning box 3. The motor 7 provides the power source for the entire correction mechanism. A centering component is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 7. This component converts the rotational power of the motor 7 into the power for subsequent structures to move towards the center and correct the alignment of the delivery box. A U-shaped block 15 is fixedly connected to both sides of the centering component. The U-shaped block 15 provides mounting and movement support points for subsequent structures, allowing them to move synchronously with the centering component. A rotating column 16 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped block 15. A connecting rod 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating column 16. The outer wall of the connecting rod 17 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the U-shaped block 15. The rotating column 16 can rotate inside the U-shaped block 15, providing a rotational foundation for subsequent structures. The connecting rod 17 transmits the force from the subsequent structures to the rotating column 16, thereby driving the rotating column 16 to rotate.

[0039] A right-angle plate 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 17. The shape of the right-angle plate 18 matches the right-angle edge of the delivery box. Rollers 19 are fixedly connected to both ends of the right-angle plate 18. The rollers 19 are used to contact the delivery box, thereby straightening the entire delivery box through the shaping effect of the right-angle plate 18. Rubber washers are fitted on the outer side of the rollers 19. The rubber washers are used to increase the friction between the rollers 19 and the delivery box, making the correction process more stable and reliable. They also serve as a buffer to prevent the rollers 19 from scratching or damaging the surface of the delivery box when they come into contact with it. A reset assembly is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating column 16. The function of the reset assembly is to enable the various components of the correction mechanism to quickly return to their initial state after the correction is completed, so as to prepare for the correction operation of the next delivery box.

[0040] The centering assembly includes a transmission column 8, the top of which is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 7, and the outer wall of the transmission column 8 is rotatably connected to the top of the scanning box 3. The transmission column 8 transmits the power of the motor 7 to the subsequent structure, thereby enabling the subsequent structure to rotate synchronously. A turntable 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the transmission column 8. When the motor 7 operates, the transmission column 8 drives the turntable 9 to rotate, thereby causing the subsequent structure to rotate around the turntable 9. Two rotating rods 10 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the turntable 9. The other end of the rotating rods 10 is rotatably connected to a transmission rod 11, and the other end of the transmission rod 11 is rotatably connected to a slide plate 12. The rotating rods 10 and the transmission rod 11 convert the rotation of the turntable 9 into the horizontal linear motion of the slide plate 12. Thus, when the turntable 9 rotates, the rotating rods 10 rotate synchronously, thereby driving the transmission rod 11 to rotate, providing a pulling force to the slide plate 12 towards the center, thereby causing the two slide plates 12 to move towards each other.

[0041] Two ring blocks 15 are fixedly connected to the sides of the slide plate 12 on their adjacent sides. Two slide plates 13 are fixedly connected to the top inner wall of the scanning box 3. The slide plates 13 are used to provide a stable sliding track for the subsequent structure. Concave sliders 14 are slidably connected to the bottom outer wall of the slide plates 13. The bottom of the two concave sliders 14 are fixedly connected to the top of the slide plate 12. Thus, when the slide plate 12 is subjected to force, the sliding of the concave sliders 14 on the slide plates 13 provides a supporting basis for the movement of the slide plate 12, and at the same time restricts the direction and range of movement of the slide plate 12, preventing the slide plate 12 from derailing.

[0042] The reset assembly includes a follower ring 20, the inner wall of which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating column 16. When the rotating column 16 rotates, the follower ring 20 rotates synchronously, thereby enabling the reset assembly to operate. A pull rod 21 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the follower ring 20, and a retaining ring 22 is fixedly connected to the other end of the pull rod 21. When the follower ring 20 rotates, it drives the pull rod 21 and the retaining ring 22 to move synchronously inside the loop block 15. Through the action of subsequent structures, the entire pull rod 21 is subjected to a reverse force, enabling the pull rod 21 and the follower ring 20 to automatically reset after rotation, thereby driving the rotating column 16 to automatically reset. A spring 23 is fixedly connected to the other end of the buckle 22, and a fixing block 24 is fixedly connected to the other end of the spring 23. The outer wall of the fixing block 24 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the loop block 15. The spring 23 provides power for the reset of the entire pull rod 21. When the rotating column 16 rotates, the follower ring 20 drives the pull rod 21 to stretch the spring 23, so that the spring 23 stores elastic potential energy. When the correction is completed, the spring 23 releases the elastic potential energy, and drives the rotating column 16 to rotate in the opposite direction through the pull rod 21 and the follower ring 20, so that the components of the correction mechanism return to their initial positions.

[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 2 The scanning mechanism includes a signal transmitter 5, which is fixedly connected to the top of the scanning box 3. The signal transmitter 5 is used to accurately transmit signals from subsequent structures. The input end of the signal transmitter 5 is electrically connected to a scanner 6. When the delivery box passes under the scanner 6 along the conveyor belt 2, the light emitted by the scanner 6 scans the box number area, converts the image information of the box number into an electrical signal, and transmits this data to the signal transmitter 5 in real time through an electrical connection.

[0044] The steering mechanism includes two mounting plates 25, one end of which is fixedly connected to both sides of the conveyor belt 2. The mounting plates 25 play a crucial role in supporting and fixing other components of the steering mechanism. Multiple rotating rollers 26 are rotatably connected to adjacent sides of the two mounting plates 25. These rollers 26 smoothly transport the delivery boxes from the conveyor belt 2 to the steering mechanism for diversion. A steering box 27 is fixedly connected to the other end of the mounting plates 25. The steering box 27 provides a stable installation space for subsequent structures. A signal receiver is installed inside the steering box 27, which is associated with a signal transmitter 5. The signal receiver accurately receives information about the delivery box number sent from the signal transmitter 5 and analyzes and processes this information according to a preset program to determine the steering direction and path of the delivery box.

[0045] The top of the steering box 27 is equipped with multiple steering wheels 28. Under the control of the signal receiver, the steering wheels 28 can rotate precisely according to the turning requirements of the delivery box, guiding the delivery box forward in a predetermined direction. Multiple diversion plates 29 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the steering box 27. The diversion plates 29 have an inclination angle with the top of the steering box 27, and the top of the diversion plates 29 is flush with the top of the steering box 27. This allows the delivery box to be diverted by the guiding action of the steering wheels 28. The diverted delivery boxes are then transported to the next production stage by the guiding action of the diversion plates 29, preventing the delivery box from getting stuck after turning due to the uneven height between the diversion plates 29 and the steering box 27.

[0046] Working principle: In use, the delivery box is placed on the conveyor belt 2, which transports it to the area below the correction mechanism. Then, the motor 7 is activated, providing power to the rotating column 16, which in turn rotates the turntable 9. The rotation of the turntable 9 causes the rotating plate to rotate around it, which in turn, via the movement of the transmission rod 11, moves the sliding plate 12 towards the center. The movement of the sliding plate 12 is limited by the sliding of the concave slider 14 on the slide plate 13, preventing it from shifting. This causes the two sliders to move towards the center until the rollers 19 contact the outer wall of the delivery box. When the rollers 19 contact the outer wall of the delivery box, the four sets of rollers 19 are in contact with the delivery box. This straightens the entire delivery box. Simultaneously, the roller 19 contacts the delivery box, causing the right-angle plate 18 to rotate. The rotation of the right-angle plate 18, through the connecting rod 17, drives the rotating column 16 to rotate. The rotating column 16, in turn, drives the follower ring 20 to rotate, which in turn stretches the spring 23 via the pull rod 21. After the delivery box is aligned, the motor 7 reverses its direction, causing the two sliders to slide in the opposite direction, thus separating the roller 19 from the delivery box. The spring 23 then releases its elastic potential energy, causing the pull rod 21 to reset. This, in turn, through the action of the follower ring 20, resets the rotating column 16, thereby causing the connecting rod 17 and the right-angle plate 18 to reset and rotate, facilitating the next alignment operation.

[0047] After the delivery box is aligned, the light emitted by the scanner 6 scans the box number area below it, converting the box number image information into an electrical signal. This data is then transmitted in real time to the signal transmitter 5, which in turn transmits the signal to the signal receiver in the steering box 27. The signal receiver controls the steering wheel 28 to rotate, so that when the delivery box is transported to the top of the steering box 27 by the rotating roller 26, it is turned by the steering wheel 28. This allows the delivery boxes to be sorted according to the scanned box number, facilitating subsequent sorting and transmitting logistics information to the user information platform for easy tracking.

[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
