Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of cigarette equipment, specifically relating to a stable conveying component for cigarette packs. Background Technology
[0002] The FOCKE350S hard-pack packaging unit is a medium-speed hard-pack packaging equipment imported from the German company FOCKE&CO. The unit has a maximum output of 400 units per minute. It consists of four individual machines: the FOCKE350 hard-pack packaging machine, the FOCKE802 cigarette pack storage unit, the FOCKE401 small box transparent paper packaging machine, and the FOCKE408 carton transparent paper packaging machine. The FOCKE408 carton transparent paper packaging machine receives cigarette packs from the 401 inlet unit through the cigarette pack channel. The input pusher pushes the cigarette packs through a pre-folding sleeve, grouping them into sets of two packs. Five sets of cigarette packs are pushed into the carton folding forming wheel each time, completing the carton wrapping and forming process. As the input pusher pushes the cigarette packs, it simultaneously touches the carton as it passes through the pre-folding sleeve. The funnel-shaped pre-folding sleeve completes the "U" fold of the carton, while the pre-folding device also acts as a folding blade to fold the carton.
[0003] However, when the cigarette pack touches the carton, the pack shifts, causing uneven wrapping and resulting in loose packs, wrinkles, and abnormal folding. Therefore, a stable conveyor system is needed to ensure the stability of the "U"-shaped pack shape, guaranteeing the quality of the carton wrapping and providing a prerequisite for the proper forming of the carton's transparent wrapping paper.
[0004] This application is submitted in order to address the above issues. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This utility model relates to a stable conveying assembly for cigarette packs. The assembly is installed between the turret and the cigarette pack pusher. The cigarette packs from the cigarette pack conveying channel are pushed into the turret by the cigarette pack pusher through the assembly. When the cigarette packs come into contact with the carton, the assembly can ensure the stable folding of the carton and the conveying of the cigarette packs.
[0006] This application provides a stable conveying assembly for strip packages, which includes: a pre-folder 1, an inner irregular side guide plate 2, an outer irregular side guide plate 3, and a bracket 4.
[0007] Among them, a pre-folding device 1 is provided on one side of the bracket 4, and a sleeve opening is below the pre-folding device 1. An inner irregular side guide plate 2 and an outer irregular side guide plate 3 are provided below the bracket, and the inner irregular side guide plate 2 and the outer irregular side guide plate 3 are respectively provided on both sides of the sleeve opening.
[0008] The inner irregular side guide plate 2 has an inner stabilizing strip 2-1 extending in a direction away from the pre-folder 1;
[0009] The outer special-shaped side guide plate 3 has an outer stabilizing strip 3-1 extending away from the pre-folding device 1;
[0010] The length of the inner stabilizing strip 2-1 is greater than the length of the outer stabilizing strip 3-1. The inner stabilizing strip 2-1 is longer, ensuring that the whole process of pushing the carton is stable. The outer stabilizing strip 3-1 is slightly shorter, which, in addition to the stabilizing effect, facilitates the handling and removal of the cigarette carton when the cigarette carton appears.
[0011] Preferably, the end of the inner stabilizing strip 2-1 of the inner special-shaped side guide plate 2 has an inner stabilizing strip inner chamfer 2-2 towards the sleeve opening.
[0012] Preferably, the end of the outer stabilizing strip 3-1 has an outer stabilizing strip inner chamfer 3-2 towards the sleeve opening.
[0013] Preferably, the bracket 4 is provided with a transverse slot hole, and the inner special-shaped side guide plate 2 and the outer special-shaped side guide plate 3 are installed on the bracket 4 through the transverse slot hole, and the transverse slot hole is used for adjusting the transverse installation position of the inner special-shaped side guide plate 2 and the outer special-shaped side guide plate 3 on the bracket 4.
[0014] Preferably, the bracket 4 is provided with a longitudinal slot hole, and the inner special-shaped side guide plate 2 and the outer special-shaped side guide plate 3 are further installed on the bracket 4 through the longitudinal slot hole, and the longitudinal slot hole is used for adjusting the longitudinal installation position of the inner special-shaped side guide plate 2 and the outer special-shaped side guide plate 3 on the bracket 4.
[0015] Preferably, the pre-folding device 1 is a U-shaped structure.
[0016] Preferably, the pre-folding device 1 has a first plane, a second plane and a third plane connected with each other, and the angle between the first plane and the second plane is 105 degrees, and the angle between the second plane and the third plane is 135 degrees. In other words, the pre-folding device is divided into three parts corresponding to three corners. The first corner is set to 105°, which completes the pre-folding of the carton. The second corner is set to 135°, which completes the "U" folding of the carton and avoids the reverse compensation of the carton. The third corner is set to 180°, which ensures the stable conveying of the carton wrapped around the cigarette packet without deviation and accurately enters the transparent paper folding wheel.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0034] The said strip package stable conveying assembly comprises a pre-folding device 1, an inner profiled side guide 2, an outer profiled side guide 3, and a bracket 4;
[0035] One side of the bracket 4 is provided with the pre-folding device 1, and the lower side of the bracket is provided with the inner profiled side guide 2 and the outer profiled side guide 3, and the inner profiled side guide 2 and the outer profiled side guide 3 are respectively arranged on both sides of the sleeve opening.
[0036] The length of the inner stabilizing strip 2-1 is greater than the length of the outer stabilizing strip 3-1.
[0037] The flow of the present strip package stable conveying assembly is as follows: at the pre-folding device 1, after the cigarette package and the carton touch each other, the pre-folding device 1 completes the "U" type folding of the carton, and the carton "U" type folding wraps the cigarette package and then transports from the sleeve opening below the pre-folding device 1 according to the Figure 1 Arrow direction.
[0038] The first corner of the pre-folding device 1 realizes the guiding and pre-folding of the carton. After the pre-folding is completed, the second corner before the cigarette package enters the sleeve opening of the pre-folding device 1 can realize the wrapping of the carton on the cigarette package group while avoiding the reverse filling of the carton. The third corner of the pre-folding device 1 can stabilize the carton wrapping the cigarette package group to stably enter the turret. At the same time, when a hard carton is used, the three corners of the pre-folding device 1 all play a stabilizing role for the cigarette package.
[0039] The transverse slots on the bracket 4 can be adjusted according to the length of the carton, so that the fixing device in the assembly can be adapted to cartons of various lengths. The longitudinal slots on the bracket 4 can adjust the position of the assembly, and when the carton is narrow, the stable strip is early to prevent the carton from being scattered. The inner stabilizing strip 2-1 of the inner profiled side guide 2 ensures that the tobacco strip remains stable throughout the path of the assembly. The outer stabilizing strip 3-1 of the outer profiled side guide 3 is half shorter than the inner stabilizing strip 2-1, which is convenient for processing when the tobacco is clamped.
[0040] As Figure 2 , the first corner of the pre-folding device 1 is set to 105°, the second corner is set to 135°, and the third corner is set to 180°. The bracket 4 has four transverse slots for adjusting the length of the carton. The bracket 4 has two longitudinal slots for adjusting the front and back of the carton, which ensures the speed of pushing the carton of different widths to ensure the stability of the pushing.
[0041] The inner stabilizing strip 2-1 of the inner profiled side guide 2 is extended to 83mm, which better stabilizes the sleeve port conveying tobacco strip and prevents the tobacco strip from being scattered. The outer stabilizing strip 3-1 of the outer profiled side guide 3 is extended to 28mm. At the same time, the ends of the inner stabilizing strip 2-1 and the outer stabilizing strip 3-1 are chamfered, which plays a guiding role and ensures the stable conveying of the sleeve port and the tobacco strip. In addition, the chamfered end presents a slightly wider outlet, which is beneficial to the smooth pushing of the tobacco strip to the transparent paper folding turret.
[0042] The pre-folding device 1 of the present application can also use the existing pre-folding device 1.
