Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tobacco processing technology, and in particular to a smoking posture correction device. Background Technology
[0002] Cigarette posture correction refers to adjusting the posture of cigarette cartons through various technical means during the cigarette sorting process to keep them in a neat and consistent state. Cigarette posture correction is an important part of the cigarette sorting process to avoid sorting errors or cigarette damage caused by incorrect posture.
[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent publication number, CN220199733U, which discloses a position correction device during the packaging and transport of cigarette packs. This patent uses a drive motor to rotate a bidirectional threaded rod, thereby causing two transmission blocks to move closer together through four transmission rods. This allows two guide blocks to correct the cigarette packs from both sides. However, this device has a problem: when the cigarette packs are only positioned from both sides, if they are stacked or placed at an angle, the position cannot be adjusted, affecting subsequent sorting operations. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a smoking posture correction device to solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0005] This utility model achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions:
[0006] A smoking posture correction device includes a platform with a groove in the platform and a conveying mechanism inside the groove. A fixed frame is fixedly connected to the top of the platform. The fixed frame is in the shape of an inverted U with its opening facing downwards. A symmetrical movable plate is slidably connected to the top wall of the fixed frame.
[0007] A moving mechanism is provided between the movable plate and the fixed frame. An adjustment mechanism is provided on one side of the movable plate. The adjustment mechanism includes symmetrical support arms, which are fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate. The symmetrical support arms are V-shaped with their tips away from the fixed frame. A fixed frame is fixedly connected to the end of the support arm away from the movable plate. A fixed shaft is fixedly connected inside the fixed frame. A lightweight baffle is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft. Symmetrical rollers are rotatably connected to the end of the lightweight baffle away from the fixed shaft.
[0008] Preferably, the conveying mechanism includes two symmetrical drive columns, which are rotatably connected in the groove. A conveyor belt is connected to the drive columns, and a conveyor motor is fixedly installed at the front end of the platform. The output shaft of the conveyor motor is fixedly connected to one of the drive columns.
[0009] Preferably, the moving mechanism includes a bidirectional lead screw, which is rotatably connected to a fixed frame. A power motor is fixedly connected to the front end of the fixed frame, and the output shaft of the power motor is fixedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw. A symmetrical moving plate is threaded onto the bidirectional lead screw.
[0010] Preferably, a limiting plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the moving plate, and the side of the symmetrical limiting plate closest to the transmission motor is a guide section, which is V-shaped with its tip away from the transmission motor.
[0011] Preferably, the side of the symmetrical limiting plate away from the transmission motor is the limiting section, the limiting section is a parallel line in the same plane, and the side of the limiting section near the lightweight baffle is provided with multiple equidistant rotating wheels.
[0012] Preferably, multiple separators are fixedly connected to the conveyor belt, and the multiple separators are arranged at equal intervals.
[0013] Preferably, the lower ends of the limiting plate and the roller are close to but not in contact with the conveyor belt.
[0014] The beneficial effects are as follows: the cigarette pack pushes the lightweight baffle, causing the lightweight baffle to rotate around a fixed axis. If the cigarette pack is tilted at this time, the end of the cigarette pack that first comes into contact with the lightweight baffle will remain stationary, while the tilted end will continue to approach the lightweight baffle. After the cigarette pack is straightened, the cigarette pack pushes the lightweight baffles on both sides to the same plane, rolls with the roller, and then separates from the roller. When the cigarette packs are stacked, the lightweight baffle can push the upper layer of cigarette packs off.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0026] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a smoking posture correction device includes a platform 101 with a groove 102 on the platform 101. A conveying mechanism is provided in the groove 102. A fixed frame 103 is fixedly connected to the top of the platform 101. The fixed frame 103 is in the shape of an inverted U-shape with the opening facing downwards. A symmetrical movable plate 203 is slidably connected to the top wall of the fixed frame 103.
[0027] A moving mechanism is provided between the movable plate 203 and the fixed frame 103. An adjustment mechanism is provided on one side of the movable plate 203. The adjustment mechanism includes symmetrical support arms 401, which are fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate 203. The symmetrical support arms 401 are V-shaped with their tips away from the fixed frame 103. A fixed frame 402 is fixedly connected to the end of the support arm 401 away from the movable plate 203. A fixed shaft 403 is fixedly connected inside the fixed frame 402. A lightweight baffle 404 is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 403. A symmetrical baffle 404 is rotatably connected to the end of the lightweight baffle 404 away from the fixed shaft 403. As the cigarette pack moves closer to the lightweight baffle 404 via the roller 405, it continues to move and pushes the lightweight baffle 404, causing it to rotate around the fixed axis 403. If the cigarette pack is tilted, the end of the cigarette pack that first comes into contact with the lightweight baffle 404 will remain stationary, while the tilted end continues to move closer to the lightweight baffle 404, thus correcting the position of the cigarette pack. After the cigarette pack is straightened, it pushes the lightweight baffles 404 on both sides to the same plane. The upper end of the cigarette pack rolls with the roller 405 and then detaches from the roller 405. When the cigarette packs are stacked, the lightweight baffle 404 can push the upper layer of cigarette packs off.
[0028] The conveying mechanism includes two symmetrical drive columns, which are rotatably connected in the groove 102. A conveyor belt 502 is connected to the drive column. A conveyor motor 501 is fixedly installed at the front end of the platform 101. The output shaft of the conveyor motor 501 is fixedly connected to one of the drive columns. The conveyor motor 501 drives the conveyor belt 502 to move.
[0029] The moving mechanism includes a bidirectional lead screw 201, which is rotatably connected to a fixed frame 103. A power motor 202 is fixedly connected to the front end of the fixed frame 103. The output shaft of the power motor 202 is fixedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw 201. A pair of symmetrical moving plates 203 are threaded onto the bidirectional lead screw 201. The power motor 202 is activated according to the different specifications of cigarette packs, and the power motor 202 drives the bidirectional lead screw 201 to rotate, so that the symmetrical moving plates 203 move towards each other on the bidirectional lead screw 201.
[0030] The lower end of the movable plate 203 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 301. The side of the symmetrical limiting plate 301 closest to the conveyor motor 501 is the guide section. The guide section is V-shaped with the tip away from the conveyor motor 501. When the cigarette pack moves with the conveyor belt 502, it comes into contact with the guide section and rubs against it, thereby adjusting the position of the cigarette pack.
[0031] The side of the symmetrical limiting plate 301 away from the conveyor motor 501 is the limiting section. The limiting section is a parallel line in the same plane. On the side of the limiting section near the lightweight baffle 404, there are multiple equidistant rotating wheels 302. After the cigarette pack moves to the limiting section with the conveyor belt 502, it rolls with the rotating wheels 302.
[0032] Multiple separator bars 6 are fixedly connected to the conveyor belt 502. The separator bars 6 are arranged at equal intervals. When it is necessary to adjust the position of a large number of cigarette packs, the separator bars 6 can help improve efficiency.
[0033] The lower ends of the limiting plate 301 and the roller 405 are close to but do not contact the conveyor belt 502, so as to avoid the safety hazard of pinching hands when workers adjust the position of the limiting plate 301 due to the small gap between the lower ends of the limiting plate 301.
[0034] Working principle: During use, the conveyor motor 501 drives the conveyor belt 502. As the cigarette pack moves with the conveyor belt 502, it comes into contact with the guide section and rubs against it, thus adjusting the position of the cigarette pack. Subsequently, the cigarette pack moves with the conveyor belt 502 to the limit section and rolls against the rotating wheel 302. At the same time, the cigarette pack gradually approaches the lightweight baffle 404. As the cigarette pack continues to move, it pushes the lightweight baffle 404, causing the lightweight baffle 404 to rotate around the fixed shaft 403. If the cigarette pack is tilted at this time, the end of the cigarette pack that initially abuts against the lightweight baffle 404 remains stationary, while the tilted end continues to approach the lightweight baffle 404 with the movement of the conveyor belt 502, thereby correcting the position of the cigarette pack. After the cigarette pack is aligned, it pushes the lightweight baffles 404 on both sides to the same plane. Then, the upper end of the cigarette pack rolls with the roller 405 and then separates from the roller 405. When a large number of cigarette packs need to be repositioned, the separator 6 provides resistance to improve efficiency. When the limit plates 301 on both sides need to be adjusted according to different specifications of cigarette packs, the power motor 202 is started. The power motor 202 drives the bidirectional lead screw 201 to rotate, so that the symmetrical moving plates 203 move towards each other on the bidirectional lead screw 201. There is a certain gap between the limit plate 301 and the conveyor belt 502 to avoid the safety hazard of the worker's hand being pinched due to the small gap at the lower end of the limit plate 301 when adjusting the position of the limit plate 301.
