Once tired, not only the work efficiency will be greatly reduced, but also the accuracy of judgment will be seriously affected due to the difficulty of maintaining high concentration, and it is very likely that the grading error will occur. Once the tobacco grading error occurs, it will directly affect the subsequent production formula of cigars, resulting in uneven quality of cigars, and then affecting the brand image and market competitiveness. In addition, manual sorting and grading also has the problems of high labor cost and low efficiency, which is difficult to meet the growing market demand. In view of this, the utility model provides a cigar tobacco sorting and grading platform. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0031] Example

[0032] likeFigures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model proposes a cigar tobacco sorting and grading platform, including a base plate 1. Four sets of upright plates 11 are mounted on the top of the base plate 1. Two sets of first linear motors 2 are installed between the four sets of upright plates 11. A second linear motor 3 is mounted on the moving end of both sets of first linear motors 2. A cylinder 4 is mounted on the moving end of the second linear motor 3. All of the above are existing technologies, used to drive suction cups 5 to move, thereby moving the tobacco leaves to achieve sorting and grading. An electric conveyor belt is also provided on the base plate 1 to transport the tobacco leaves to the moving range of the suction cups 5. The electric conveyor belt can be a longer type to facilitate the laying of tobacco leaves on its surface at multiple workstations. It also includes four sets of suction cups 5 positioned above the electric conveyor belt, along with a vacuum pump and connecting pipe for cooperating with the suction cups 5, facilitating air suction to adhere the tobacco leaves and facilitate their transfer.

[0033] Furthermore, the aforementioned sorting and grading platform includes two sets of adjustment mechanisms 6, which are used to adjust the spacing between two sets of suction cups 5 on the same side. Each adjustment mechanism 6 includes two sets of mounting plates 61, which are fixedly connected to the two sets of suction cups 5. A synchronization plate 62 is mounted on the top of each mounting plate 61. When the synchronization plate 62 moves, it drives the suction cups 5 to move synchronously through the mounting plates 61. A first bidirectional push rod motor 63 is positioned between the two sets of synchronization plates 62. The two output ends of the first bidirectional push rod motor 63 are fixedly connected to the two sets of synchronization plates 62, and the first bidirectional push rod motor 63 adjusts the spacing between the two sets of suction cups 5 on the same side after startup. A connecting plate 64 is fixedly connected to one side of the first bidirectional push rod motor 63. When the connecting plate 64 moves, it drives the first bidirectional push rod motor 63 to move synchronously. The connecting plate 64 has four sets of sliding grooves 65, and sliders 66 are slidably connected in the sliding grooves 65. The sliders 66 are L-shaped and are fixedly connected to the side of the synchronization plate 62. The sliding grooves 65 and sliders 66 make the movement of the synchronization plate 62 smooth, that is, the movement of the suction cup 5 smooth.

[0034] Furthermore, the aforementioned sorting and grading platform also includes a telescopic assembly 7 installed between the two sets of adjustment mechanisms 6. The telescopic assembly 7 includes a second bidirectional push rod motor 71 disposed between the two sets of adjustment mechanisms 6. The second bidirectional push rod motor 71 is used to adjust the distance between the suction cups 5 on both sides. The two output ends of the second bidirectional push rod motor 71 are fixedly connected to the two sets of connecting plates 64 respectively. After starting, the second bidirectional push rod motor 71 drives the two sets of connecting plates 64 to move synchronously. A mounting frame 72 is provided on the outside of the second bidirectional push rod motor 71. The mounting frame 72 is U-shaped. The second bidirectional push rod motor 71 is installed in the mounting frame 72. When the mounting frame 72 moves, it drives the second bidirectional push rod motor 71 to move synchronously. A fixing block 73 is also fixedly connected in the mounting frame 72. Multiple sets of limiting rods 74 are slidably connected in the fixing block 73. The multiple sets of limiting rods 74 are fixedly connected to the two sets of connecting plates 64 respectively. The setting of the fixing block 73 and the limiting rods 74 makes the movement of the connecting plates 64 smooth.

[0035] Specifically, the telescopic assembly 7 is equipped with a steering mechanism 8 connected to the cylinder 4. The steering mechanism 8 includes a connecting column 81 fixedly connected to the top of the mounting frame 72, and the connecting column 81 moves synchronously with the mounting frame 72. The top of the connecting column 81 is rotatably connected to the connecting frame 82, and the output end of the cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 82. After the cylinder 4 is started, it drives the connecting frame 82 to rise and fall, thereby driving the suction cup 5 to rise and fall. The connecting frame 82 is U-shaped, and two sets of limiting rings 83 are installed on the connecting column 81. The two sets of limiting rings 83 are located on the inner and outer sides of the connecting frame 82, respectively. Through the limiting effect of the limiting rings 83, the connecting column 81 is kept in its original position and rotates. A servo motor 84 is installed in the connecting frame 82. The output end of the servo motor 84 passes through the bottom of the connecting frame 82 and is fixedly connected to the first gear 85. After the servo motor 84 is started, it drives the first gear 85 to rotate. A second gear 86 is provided on one side of the first gear 85 and meshes with it. The second gear 86 is installed on the outer ring of the connecting column 81. When the first gear 85 rotates, it drives the second gear 86 to rotate, thereby driving the connecting column 81 to rotate and adjust.

[0036] Multiple sets of centralized boxes 12 are installed on the top of the base plate 1 for centralized placement of tobacco leaves, which facilitates packaging.

[0037] A camera 9 is installed at the bottom of the mounting frame 72. The camera 9 is connected to the control module. The control module recognizes the tobacco leaf images captured by the camera 9, thereby driving the first linear motor 2, the second linear motor 3, the cylinder 4, the vacuum pump, the first bidirectional push rod motor 63, the second bidirectional push rod motor 71, and the servo motor 84 to work together to move tobacco leaves of different grades to different collection boxes 12 for placement, thereby achieving sorting and grading.

[0038] In this embodiment, firstly, the worker lays the tobacco leaves on the electric conveyor belt. When the tobacco leaves move above the bottom plate 1, the first linear motor 2 and the second linear motor 3 are activated, driving the suction cups 5 and the camera 9 to move above the tobacco leaves. The camera 9 identifies the tobacco leaves and drives them by outputting control signals through the control module. Based on the position and direction of the tobacco leaves identified by the camera 9, the first bidirectional push rod motor 63 is activated, driving the two sets of synchronous plates 62 to move synchronously. This allows the synchronous plates 62 to move smoothly under the limiting action of the slide groove 65 and the slider 66, and drives the suction cups 5 to move through the mounting plate 61, adjusting the spacing between the two sets of suction cups 5 on the same side. At the same time, the second bidirectional push rod motor 71 is activated to adjust the spacing between the suction cups 5 on both sides. The servo motor 84 is controlled to drive the first gear 85 to rotate at a certain angle. The first gear 85 drives the second gear 86 to rotate, thereby driving multiple sets of suction cups 5 to rotate around the axis of the connecting column 81. Through the above adjustments, the suction cups 5 are moved to the optimal position. Then, cylinder 4 extends, causing suction cup 5 to move downwards towards the tobacco leaves. Once suction cup 5 contacts the tobacco leaves, the vacuum pump activates, causing suction cup 5 to adhere to the tobacco leaves. Next, cylinder 4 retracts, causing the tobacco leaves to leave the electric conveyor belt. Simultaneously, based on the tobacco leaf status detected by camera 9, the first linear motor 2, in conjunction with the second linear motor 3, moves the tobacco leaves to the designated collection box 12. Cylinder 4 then extends again, placing the tobacco leaves into the collection box 12. Finally, cylinder 4 retracts, and the first and second linear motors 2 and 3 activate, resetting multiple sets of suction cups 5 and camera 9. This cycle repeats to achieve tobacco leaf sorting and grading.

[0039] The above specific embodiments are merely optional embodiments of this utility model.
