Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of packaging technology, specifically relating to a manual cigarette rolling machine. Background Technology

[0002] With the diversification of people's lifestyles, the demand for personalized tobacco products is growing. Manual cigarette rolling, as a unique tobacco production method, is popular among specific consumer groups because it allows users to flexibly adjust factors such as the type of tobacco, the amount of filling, and the thickness of the cigarette according to their own preferences.

[0003] Traditional manual cigarette rolling relies primarily on manual operation, where tobacco is manually filled into an empty cigarette tube. This method has several drawbacks. Firstly, due to the lack of effective tools, it's difficult to ensure the tobacco is evenly distributed within the tube. Uneven tobacco distribution leads to inconsistent burning speeds during combustion; some areas burn too quickly while others extinguish easily, severely impacting the smoking experience. Secondly, manual tobacco filling is extremely inefficient. Each cigarette requires a significant amount of time and effort to carefully fill the tube bit by bit, making it a tedious and time-consuming task for users who need to roll a certain number of cigarettes.

[0004] While existing manual cigarette rolling tools have addressed the tobacco filling issue to some extent, they still have significant limitations. For example, manual cigarette rolling machines can only accommodate empty cigarette tubes of a single diameter, failing to meet users' diverse needs for cigarettes of varying thicknesses. When users want to try different sizes of empty cigarette tubes, they have to purchase multiple different models of manual cigarette rolling machines, which not only increases operating costs but also occupies a considerable amount of storage space. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, this application provides a manual cigarette rolling device suitable for various empty cigarette tubes of different diameters.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application mainly provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] This application provides a manual cigarette rolling machine, comprising:

[0008] The machine body has a connection port with an elastic buckle. The elastic buckle is used to fix nozzles of different diameters. The nozzles are used to connect the tobacco chamber inside the machine body with the empty tobacco tube outside the machine body.

[0009] A push rod is movably disposed on the side of the tobacco cavity away from the empty cigarette tube, and the tobacco cavity is provided with a hole for the push rod to pass through;

[0010] A drive assembly is connected to the push rod, and the drive assembly is used to drive the push rod to switch between a first operating position and a second operating position.

[0011] Optionally, the end of the push rod facing the empty smoke tube is hollow, and a smoke slit extending along the moving direction of the push rod is provided on the side of the push rod at a position corresponding to the hollow structure.

[0012] Optionally, the machine body is provided with a feed inlet at a position relative to the tobacco chamber, and a movable sealing plate is provided on the side of the tobacco chamber near the feed inlet. The movable sealing plate is connected to the drive assembly, and the drive assembly is used to drive the movable sealing plate to rise and fall.

[0013] Optionally, a pressure block is provided on the side of the movable sealing plate away from the feed inlet. When the driving assembly drives the movable sealing plate to descend, the pressure block can apply pressure to the tobacco already filled into the tobacco cavity, so that the tobacco is tightly compacted.

[0014] Optionally, the driving component includes:

[0015] A lever, the lever being located inside the machine body, the lever being fixedly connected to a shaft extending out of the machine body, and a handle being connected to the portion of the shaft outside the machine body;

[0016] The transmission plate has a pin at one end, which engages with the actuator. Both sides of the transmission plate are hinged with connecting rods. One end of the connecting rod away from the transmission plate is hinged inside the machine body, and the other end of the connecting rod away from the transmission plate is hinged to the movable sealing plate.

[0017] Optionally, the machine body is further provided with a slide rail, which extends along the moving direction of the push rod, and a slider is slidably provided on the slide rail, the slider being connected to the push rod;

[0018] The driving component also includes:

[0019] A rotating arm, one end of which is movably sleeved on the shaft, and the other end of which is hinged to the slider;

[0020] A first torsion spring is disposed at the pivot of the rotating arm. One end of the first torsion spring is connected to the rotating arm, and the other end is fixed relative to the machine body. The first torsion spring is used to cooperate with the lever to make the rotating arm rotate and drive the push rod to switch between the first operating position and the second operating position through the slider.

[0021] Optionally, the actuator is provided with a baffle plate. When the push rod switches from the first operating position to the second operating position, the baffle plate abuts against the rotating arm to make the rotating arm rotate in the first direction, and the first torsion spring accumulates elastic potential energy.

[0022] Optionally, the first torsion spring releases the elastic potential energy to drive the rotating arm to rotate in the opposite direction of the first direction, so that the push rod switches from the second operating position to the first operating position.

[0023] Optionally, a pressure nozzle is rotatably mounted on the tobacco chamber. One end of the pressure nozzle extends out of the machine body and is connected to a clamp. The clamp is used to cooperate with the nozzle to fix the empty tobacco tube.

[0024] Optionally, a second torsion spring is provided at the pivot of the nozzle sway, and a lever that cooperates with the connecting rod extends from the nozzle sway.

[0025] One end of the second torsion spring is connected to the nozzle swing member, and the other end is fixed relative to the machine body. When the push rod switches from the first operating position to the second operating position, the connecting rod abuts against the lever to make the nozzle swing member rotate in the second direction. The second torsion spring accumulates elastic potential energy and releases the elastic potential energy to drive the nozzle swing member to rotate in the opposite direction of the second direction.

[0026] By employing the above technical solution, this application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0027] The manual cigarette roller provided in the embodiments of this application, by setting an elastic buckle at the connection port of the machine body, can fix mouthpieces of different diameters, thereby allowing the manual cigarette roller to adapt to empty cigarette tubes of different thicknesses, meeting the diverse needs of users for different specifications of cigarettes. Thus, users do not need to purchase multiple different models of manual cigarette rollers to use different specifications of empty cigarette tubes, reducing usage costs and saving storage space. Simultaneously, by setting a push rod and a drive assembly, the drive assembly can drive the push rod to switch between a first operating position and a second operating position. The push rod is movably set on the side of the tobacco cavity away from the empty cigarette tube, so that when filling the tobacco, the movement of the push rod can push and compact the tobacco more evenly, better ensuring the uniformity of tobacco filling in the empty cigarette tube. This avoids the problem of inconsistent burning speed during the cigarette combustion process due to uneven tobacco distribution (such as some areas burning too fast and some areas easily extinguishing), thereby improving the user experience.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0037] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0038] The preferred embodiments of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit this application.

[0039] See also Figures 1 to 4 As shown, according to an embodiment of this application, a manual cigarette rolling machine is provided, including: a machine body 100, a connection port on the machine body 100, an elastic buckle at the connection port, the elastic buckle being used to fix nozzles 1 of different diameters, the nozzles 1 being used to connect the tobacco cavity inside the machine body 100 with the empty cigarette tube outside the machine body 100; a push rod 3, the push rod 3 being movably disposed on the side of the tobacco cavity away from the empty cigarette tube, the tobacco cavity being provided with a hole for the push rod 3 to pass through; and a drive assembly, the drive assembly being connected to the push rod 3, the drive assembly being used to drive the push rod 3 to switch between a first operating position and a second operating position.

[0040] In this embodiment, by setting an elastic buckle at the connection port of the machine body 100, nozzles 1 of different diameters can be fixed, thus allowing the manual cigarette roller to adapt to empty cigarette tubes of different thicknesses, meeting the diverse needs of users for different specifications of cigarettes. This eliminates the need for users to purchase multiple different models of manual cigarette rollers to use different specifications of empty cigarette tubes, reducing operating costs and saving storage space. Simultaneously, by setting a push rod 3 and a drive assembly, the drive assembly can drive the push rod 3 to switch between a first operating position and a second operating position. The push rod 3 is movably positioned on the side of the tobacco cavity away from the empty cigarette tube, allowing the movement of the push rod 3 to push and compact the tobacco more evenly during filling. This better ensures the uniformity of tobacco filling in the empty cigarette tube, avoiding the problem of inconsistent burning speeds (such as some areas burning too fast while others easily extinguish) caused by uneven tobacco distribution during combustion, thereby improving the user experience.

[0041] The connection port is a channel connecting the inside of the machine body 100 to the external empty pipe, allowing tobacco to be transported from the tobacco chamber inside the machine body 100 to the external empty pipe.

[0042] Specifically, the shape of the connection port can be circular or rectangular, etc., and this application does not limit this. In this embodiment, the connection port is circular. An elastic buckle is fixedly provided at the connection port, and the shape of the elastic buckle can be determined according to its installation position and the shape of the nozzle 1 to be fixed. For example, if the nozzle 1 is circular, the elastic buckle can be designed as a ring or a clamp shape with an arc to better fit the outer surface of the nozzle 1; if the nozzle 1 is square or other shapes, the elastic buckle can also be adapted accordingly.

[0043] The nozzle 1 is used to connect the tobacco chamber inside the machine body 100 with the empty pipe outside the machine body 100, providing a conveying channel for the tobacco to enter the empty pipe from the tobacco chamber, ensuring that the tobacco can be smoothly conveyed from inside the machine to the empty pipe.

[0044] Specifically, an annular groove is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the nozzle 1. When the nozzle 1 is inserted into the connection port, the elastic buckle, due to its elastic deformation characteristics, can smoothly embed into the annular groove. Due to the elastic tension of the elastic buckle, it can tightly fit against the inner wall of the annular groove, forming a stable locking structure, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the nozzle 1 at the connection port. It can be understood that, due to the elastic deformation characteristics of the elastic buckle, when nozzles 1 of different diameters are inserted into the connection port, the elastic buckle can undergo corresponding elastic deformation according to the diameter of the nozzle 1, thereby tightly fixing the nozzle 1. This allows the manual cigarette rolling machine to adapt to various nozzles 1 of different diameters, and thus connect empty cigarette tubes of different thicknesses, meeting the personalized needs of users for different specifications of cigarettes.

[0045] The push rod 3 is movably positioned on the side of the tobacco cavity away from the empty cigarette tube. The tobacco cavity has a hole for the push rod 3 to pass through, allowing it to move within the tobacco cavity. It should be noted that the movement of the push rod 3 is the key action for tobacco filling. When the push rod 3 moves towards the empty cigarette tube, it pushes the tobacco within the tobacco cavity, conveying it along the channel of the nozzle 1 to the external empty cigarette tube, completing the tobacco filling process.

[0046] The drive assembly is connected to the push rod 3, ensuring that the drive assembly can transmit power to the push rod 3, thereby controlling the movement of the push rod 3.

[0047] Specifically, in practical applications, the main function of the drive component is to switch the push rod 3 between a first operating position and a second operating position. The first and second operating positions represent two different states during the movement of the push rod 3. For example, the first operating position can be the initial position where the push rod 3 is in the tobacco chamber, at which point the tobacco chamber can be filled with tobacco. When the drive component drives the push rod 3 to the second operating position, the push rod 3 pushes the tobacco in the tobacco chamber into the empty cigarette tube, completing one tobacco filling operation. Afterward, the push rod 3 can return to the first operating position under the action of the drive component, preparing for the next filling.

[0048] Furthermore, in this embodiment, when using this manual cigarette rolling machine, firstly, a nozzle 1 of appropriate diameter is selected as needed and fixed to the connection port of the machine body 100 using elastic clips. Then, an empty cigarette tube is connected to the other end of the nozzle 1. Next, tobacco is loaded into the tobacco cavity of the machine body 100. Then, the drive assembly is activated, which moves the push rod 3 from the first operating position to the second operating position. The push rod 3 pushes the tobacco in the tobacco cavity, causing it to pass through the nozzle 1 and enter the empty cigarette tube, completing the tobacco filling. After filling, the drive assembly drives the push rod 3 back to the first operating position for the next cigarette rolling operation.

[0049] In some possible implementations disclosed in this application, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 2 As shown, the end of the push rod 3 facing the empty smoke tube is a hollow structure, and on the side of the push rod 3, at a position corresponding to the hollow structure, there is a smoke slit 31 extending along the moving direction of the push rod 3.

[0050] In this embodiment, a slit 31 is provided on the side of the push rod 3, providing a direct channel for the tobacco to contact the inner wall of the empty tube. In practical applications, when the tobacco contacts the inner wall of the empty tube through the slit 31, friction is generated between the tobacco and the inner wall. According to the principle of friction, the direction of the friction between the tobacco and the inner wall of the empty tube is opposite to the direction of the push rod 3's withdrawal. During the outward withdrawal of the push rod 3, this friction acts as a resistance, exerting a force on the tobacco opposite to the direction of the push rod 3's movement, thereby effectively preventing the tobacco from moving with the push rod 3, ensuring that the tobacco remains stably inside the empty tube and guaranteeing the effectiveness of the tobacco filling.

[0051] The end of push rod 3 facing the empty cigarette tube has a hollow structure, providing a space for storing and conveying tobacco. During the movement of push rod 3, the tobacco can be stored in the hollow structure of push rod 3, making it convenient to push the tobacco into the empty cigarette tube later.

[0052] A slit 31 is provided on the side of the push rod 3, corresponding to the hollow structure, extending along the moving direction of the push rod 3. The slit 31 is the channel through which the tobacco shreds emerge from the hollow part of the push rod 3 and come into contact with the outside. Moreover, the slit 31 extends along the moving direction of the push rod 3, which ensures that the tobacco shreds can continuously interact with the outside through the slit 31 during the movement of the push rod 3.

[0053] Specifically, when the drive assembly moves the push rod 3 from the first operating position to the second operating position, the push rod 3 begins to advance towards the empty pipe. Since the end of the push rod 3 facing the empty pipe is hollow, and the tobacco cavity has a hole for the push rod 3 to pass through, during the movement of the push rod 3, the tobacco in the tobacco cavity will enter the hollow structure of the push rod 3 under its own weight and the thrust generated by the movement of the push rod 3. At this time, the tobacco is temporarily stored in the hollow structure of the push rod 3 and moves towards the empty pipe along with the push rod 3. As the drive assembly continues to drive the push rod 3, the push rod 3 will pass through the nozzle 1 and then be inserted into the empty pipe. During this process, the tobacco originally stored in the hollow structure of the push rod 3 is also brought into the empty pipe. Since the side of the push rod 3 has a slit 31 extending along the direction of movement of the push rod 3 at a position corresponding to the hollow structure, the tobacco makes some contact with the inner wall of the empty pipe through the slit 31. When push rod 3 reaches the second operating position, the drive assembly will drive push rod 3 to move in the opposite direction, switching from the second operating position to the first operating position, and push rod 3 will begin to retract from the empty cigarette tube. During the retraction of push rod 3, the tobacco remains in the empty cigarette tube due to friction and its own loose properties. When push rod 3 is completely retracted from the empty cigarette tube and returns to the first operating position, the tobacco has been successfully filled into the empty cigarette tube, completing one manual cigarette rolling process. At this point, the empty cigarette tube containing tobacco can be removed, and a new empty cigarette tube can be inserted to prepare for the next cigarette rolling operation.

[0054] It should be noted that, regarding the effect of friction: the tobacco shreds come into contact with the inner wall of the empty pipe through the tobacco slit 31, and the inner wall of the empty pipe generates friction on the tobacco shreds. When the push rod 3 is withdrawn outward, this friction prevents the tobacco shreds from moving with the push rod 3, thus keeping the tobacco shreds inside the empty pipe. Regarding the loose nature of the tobacco shreds: the tobacco shreds are usually in a loose state. When the push rod 3 is withdrawn, the interaction force between the tobacco shreds and the friction with the inner wall of the empty pipe make it difficult for the tobacco shreds to move as a whole with the push rod 3, but instead keep them inside the empty pipe.

[0055] In some possible implementations disclosed in this application, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the machine body 100 is provided with a feed inlet 101 at a position relative to the tobacco chamber. A movable sealing plate 21 is provided on the side of the tobacco chamber near the feed inlet 101. The movable sealing plate 21 is connected to the drive assembly, which is used to drive the movable sealing plate 21 to rise and fall.

[0056] In this embodiment, a feed inlet 101 is provided on the machine body 100 at a position relative to the tobacco cavity, providing a channel for tobacco to enter the tobacco cavity. This allows tobacco to be easily poured into the tobacco cavity through the feed inlet 101, improving the convenience of tobacco loading. Simultaneously, a movable sealing plate 21 is provided on the side of the tobacco cavity near the feed inlet 101, and the movable sealing plate 21 is connected to a drive assembly. The drive assembly can drive the movable sealing plate 21 to rise and fall, achieving precise control of the tobacco loading process. When tobacco needs to be loaded, the drive assembly drives the movable sealing plate 21 to rise, opening the feed inlet 101, allowing tobacco to be loaded into the tobacco cavity. After the tobacco loading is complete, the drive assembly drives the movable sealing plate 21 to fall, closing the feed inlet 101 and preventing tobacco from overflowing from the feed inlet 101 during subsequent operations.

[0057] Among them, the feed inlet 101 is the entrance for tobacco to enter the tobacco chamber. It directly corresponds to the tobacco chamber, and its purpose is to allow the tobacco to enter the tobacco chamber in the most convenient and direct way, so as to avoid the tobacco from getting blocked or falling apart during the process.

[0058] A movable sealing plate 21 is installed on the side of the tobacco chamber near the feed inlet 101. The movable sealing plate 21 is like a "door" for the feed inlet 101, which can be opened or closed to control the entry and exit of tobacco.

[0059] Specifically, the movable sealing plate 21 is also connected to the drive assembly. In this application, the drive assembly can drive the push rod 3 to switch between the first operating position and the second operating position; on the other hand, it can control the lifting and lowering movement of the movable sealing plate 21. In practical applications, when it is necessary to load tobacco into the tobacco chamber, the drive assembly is activated. The drive assembly starts working, transmitting power to the movable sealing plate 21, driving the movable sealing plate 21 to rise. As the movable sealing plate 21 rises, the feed inlet 101 is opened, at which point the user can pour tobacco into the tobacco chamber through the feed inlet 101. After the tobacco is loaded, the drive assembly is operated again. The drive assembly works in reverse, driving the movable sealing plate 21 to descend. During the descent of the movable sealing plate 21, the feed inlet 101 is gradually closed, preventing tobacco from continuing to enter the tobacco chamber, and also preventing tobacco from overflowing from the feed inlet 101 during subsequent cigarette rolling operations.

[0060] In the above embodiments, see Figure 3 As shown, a pressure block 211 is provided on the side of the movable sealing plate 21 away from the feed inlet 101. When the drive assembly drives the movable sealing plate 21 to descend, the pressure block 211 can apply pressure to the tobacco already filled into the tobacco cavity, so that the tobacco is tightly compacted.

[0061] In this embodiment, the pressure block 211 applies pressure to the tobacco already filled in the tobacco cavity, making the tobacco more compact and effectively preventing uneven distribution of the tobacco within the tobacco cavity. It is understood that when the tobacco is subsequently filled into the empty cigarette tube, a uniform density of tobacco ensures more stable combustion of the cigarette, preventing localized excessively fast or slow combustion and improving the user experience.

[0062] The tobacco chamber includes a left side plate, a right side plate, a rear plate, a front plate, a bottom plate, and a top plate. In this embodiment, the movable sealing plate 21 is the front plate of the tobacco chamber, the pressure block 211 on the movable sealing plate 21 is the top plate of the tobacco chamber, and the inner wall of the machine body 100 is the bottom plate of the tobacco chamber.

[0063] Specifically, the left and right side plates are arranged opposite each other along the moving direction of the push rod 3, and both the left and right side plates have holes for the push rod 3 to pass through. The movable sealing plate 21 (i.e., the front plate) and the rear plate are arranged opposite each other between the left and right side plates. The bottom plate (i.e., the inner wall of the machine body 100) and the top plate (i.e., the pressure block 211 provided on the movable sealing plate 21) are parallel to each other and opposite each other. When the drive assembly drives the movable sealing plate 21 to descend, the top plate (pressure block 211) moves downward accordingly, cooperating with the bottom plate to apply pressure to the tobacco shreds located between the two, thereby achieving tight compaction of the tobacco shreds.

[0064] Furthermore, in some specific examples, in order to enable the movable sealing plate 21 to be raised and lowered, tracks are provided in the left and right plates at positions relative to the movable sealing plate 21. The tracks extend along the raising and lowering direction of the movable sealing plate 21, and the movable sealing plate 21 is slidably disposed within the tracks.

[0065] In some possible implementations disclosed in this application, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 As shown, the drive assembly includes: a toggle 4, which is located inside the machine body 100. The toggle 4 is fixedly connected to a shaft 5 extending out of the machine body 100. The part of the shaft 5 outside the machine body 100 is connected to a handle 6; a transmission plate 7, which has a pin 8 at one end, which engages with the toggle 4. Both sides of the transmission plate 7 are hinged with connecting rods 9. One end of the connecting rod 9 away from the transmission plate 7 is hinged inside the machine body 100, and the other end of the connecting rod 9 away from the transmission plate 7 is hinged to the movable sealing plate 21.

[0066] In this embodiment, the transmission plate 7 is engaged with the actuator 4 via a pin 8, and hinged to two connecting rods 9 on both sides. One connecting rod 9 is hinged inside the machine body 100, and the other connecting rod 9 is hinged to the movable sealing plate 21, forming a stable transmission system. When the handle 6 is rotated, power can be stably transmitted to the movable sealing plate 21 through the actuator 4, transmission plate 7, and connecting rods 9, ensuring that the movable sealing plate 21 can rise and fall smoothly as expected, avoiding shaking or instability during transmission, thereby improving the working stability and reliability of the entire manual cigarette rolling machine.

[0067] The lever 4 is located inside the machine body 100 and is connected to the handle 6 located outside the machine body 100 via the shaft 5, so that the user can drive the lever 4 to rotate by operating the handle 6.

[0068] One end of the transmission plate 7 is provided with a shaft pin 8, which is engaged with the lever 4, so that the lever 4 can drive the transmission plate 7 to move when it rotates, thereby realizing the transmission of power.

[0069] The transmission plate 7 has connecting rods 9 hinged to both sides, which allows the connecting rods 9 to rotate relative to the transmission plate 7, ensuring flexibility and mobility during transmission.

[0070] One end of the connecting rod 9, away from the transmission plate 7, is hinged inside the machine body 100, providing a fixed support point for the movement of the transmission plate 7, allowing the transmission plate 7 to swing around this support point during movement. The other end of the connecting rod 9, away from the transmission plate 7, is hinged to the movable sealing plate 21, allowing the movement of the transmission plate 7 to be transmitted to the movable sealing plate 21 through the connecting rod 9, thereby driving the movable sealing plate 21 to move up and down.

[0071] Specifically, when the user rotates handle 6, the rotation of handle 6 drives the connected shaft 5 to rotate. Since shaft 5 is fixedly connected to actuator 4, the rotation of shaft 5 causes actuator 4 to rotate within the machine body 100. Simultaneously, actuator 4 is engaged with transmission plate 7 via pin 8, allowing the rotation of actuator 4 to drive transmission plate 7. When transmission plate 7 moves, the connecting rods 9 hinged on both sides move accordingly. One connecting rod 9 is supported by a point hinged inside the machine body 100, while the other connecting rod 9 transmits the motion to movable sealing plate 21. Through the transmission of connecting rod 9, movable sealing plate 21 achieves lifting and lowering under the drive of transmission plate 7. When tobacco needs to be loaded, the movable sealing plate 21 is driven to rise and open feed port 101; after tobacco loading is completed, the movable sealing plate 21 is driven to fall and close feed port 101.

[0072] Furthermore, the lever 4 has a slot, and the size and shape of the pin 8 are adapted to this slot, allowing the pin 8 to be tightly embedded in the slot of the lever 4. When the user turns the handle 6, the handle 6 drives the shaft 5, which is fixedly connected to it, to rotate. Since the lever 4 is also fixedly connected to the shaft 5, the lever 4 will rotate along with the shaft 5. During the rotation of the lever 4, its slot will apply a circumferential force to the pin 8. After receiving the force applied by the slot of the lever 4, the pin 8 will transmit this force to the transmission plate 7. Because the pin 8 is fixed to the transmission plate 7, the transmission plate 7 will move along with the pin 8. In this way, the rotational motion of the lever 4 is successfully transmitted to the transmission plate 7 through the pin 8, causing the transmission plate 7 to start moving. After receiving the force transmitted by the pin 8, the transmission plate 7 will swing or move with the connecting rods 9 hinged on both sides as support. Since the connecting rods 9 on both sides of the transmission plate 7 are respectively hinged to the inside of the machine body 100 and the movable sealing plate 21, the movement of the transmission plate 7 is further converted into the lifting and lowering movement of the movable sealing plate 21 through the connecting rods 9, thereby realizing the drive control of the movable sealing plate 21. In this embodiment, see Figure 1 As shown, when the actuator 4 rotates clockwise, the movable sealing plate 21 rises and opens the feed inlet 101; when the actuator 4 rotates counterclockwise, the movable sealing plate 21 falls and closes the feed inlet 101.

[0073] In some possible implementations disclosed in this application, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 As shown, the machine body 100 is also provided with a slide rail 10, which extends along the moving direction of the push rod 3. A slider 11 is slidably mounted on the slide rail 10 and is connected to the push rod 3. The drive assembly also includes: a rotating arm 12, one end of which is movably sleeved on the shaft 5 and the other end is hinged to the slider 11; a first torsion spring 13, which is located at the pivot of the rotating arm 12. One end of the first torsion spring 13 is connected to the rotating arm 12 and the other end is fixed relative to the machine body 100. The first torsion spring 13 is used to cooperate with the lever 4 to make the rotating arm 12 rotate and drive the push rod 3 to switch between the first operating position and the second operating position through the slider 11.

[0074] In this embodiment, a slide rail 10 extending along the moving direction of the push rod 3 is provided inside the machine body 100, and a slider 11 connected to the push rod 3 is slidably provided on the slide rail 10, which provides precise guidance for the movement of the push rod 3, so that the push rod 3 can move smoothly along the predetermined direction during the movement, avoiding the push rod 3 from deviating or shaking during the movement, and ensuring the stability and accuracy of the tobacco filling process.

[0075] The machine body 100 contains a slide rail 10 that extends along the direction of movement of the push rod 3. This restricts the movement of the push rod 3 to the direction defined by the slide rail 10, ensuring the linearity and stability of the push rod 3's movement. A sliding slider 11 is mounted on the slide rail 10 and connected to the push rod 3. The sliding of the slider 11 on the slide rail 10 directly drives the push rod 3, forming a linkage relationship. The motion state of the slider 11 determines the motion state of the push rod 3.

[0076] The rotating arm 12 has two connection points. One end is movably sleeved on the shaft 5, allowing the rotating arm 12 to rotate or swing around the shaft 5 to a certain extent. The shaft 5 provides a support point for the rotation of the rotating arm 12. The other end is hinged to the slider 11, allowing relative rotation between the rotating arm 12 and the slider 11 while ensuring the connection between them. This allows the movement of the rotating arm 12 to be transmitted to the slider 11, and vice versa. It can be understood that the rotating arm 12 plays a role in transmitting force and motion in the entire drive assembly. The rotating arm 12 can transmit the movement or force of the shaft 5 to the slider 11 through its own rotation, thereby indirectly affecting the movement of the push rod 3.

[0077] The first torsion spring 13 is located at the pivot of the rotating arm 12 and can directly affect the rotation of the rotating arm 12.

[0078] Specifically, one end of the first torsion spring 13 is connected to the rotating arm 12, and the other end is fixed relative to the machine body 100, so that the first torsion spring 13 can generate an elastic interaction between the rotating arm 12 and the machine body 100. Through the interaction between the first torsion spring 13 and the rotating arm 12, the push rod 3 is ultimately switched between the first operating position and the second operating position by the slider 11.

[0079] Further, see Figure 1 As shown, the lever 4 is provided with a baffle 41. When the push rod 3 switches from the first operating position to the second operating position, the baffle 41 abuts against the rotating arm 12 so that the rotating arm 12 rotates in the first direction and the first torsion spring 13 accumulates elastic potential energy. The first torsion spring 13 releases elastic potential energy to drive the rotating arm 12 to rotate in the opposite direction of the first direction so that the push rod 3 switches from the second operating position to the first operating position.

[0080] Here, the contact between the baffle 41 and the rotating arm 12 allows for precise triggering of the rotating arm 12's rotation during the switch of the push rod 3 from the first operating position to the second operating position. Simultaneously, the first torsion spring 13 accumulates elastic potential energy during the rotation of the rotating arm 12, which can be utilized in subsequent operations. For example, when the push rod 3 needs to return from the second operating position to the first operating position, the stored elastic potential energy of the first torsion spring 13 can be released, assisting in pushing the rotating arm 12 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby resetting the slider 11 and the push rod 3. This reduces the external force required for driving and improves the system's efficiency and performance.

[0081] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first direction is counterclockwise.

[0082] In some possible implementations disclosed in this application, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 As shown, a pressure nozzle 14 is rotatably mounted on the tobacco chamber. One end of the pressure nozzle 14 extends out of the machine body 100 and is connected to a clamping plate 15. The clamping plate 15 is used to cooperate with the nozzle 1 to fix the empty tobacco tube.

[0083] In this embodiment, by setting the clamp 15 to cooperate with the nozzle 1, the empty cigarette tube can be firmly fixed in a suitable position, preventing the empty cigarette tube from affecting the normal filling of tobacco due to shaking or displacement during the filling process, ensuring the smooth filling of tobacco, and thus improving the reliability of the manual cigarette rolling machine.

[0084] In this embodiment, the mouthpiece holder 14 is rotatably mounted on the rear plate of the tobacco chamber. The mouthpiece holder 14 is not entirely located inside the machine body 100, but a portion extends outside the machine body 100. Therefore, the function of the mouthpiece holder 14 can be extended to areas outside the machine body 100.

[0085] A clamping plate 15 is connected to the end of the nozzle holder 14 that extends out of the machine body 100. The clamping plate 15 can be a sheet-like component with a certain degree of elasticity, which can fit against the outer wall of the nozzle 1 under the action of the nozzle holder 14, so as to fix the empty pipe to the nozzle 1.

[0086] Further, see Figure 1 As shown, a second torsion spring 16 is provided at the pivot of the nozzle sway 14, and a lever 141 that cooperates with the connecting rod 9 extends from the nozzle sway 14. One end of the second torsion spring 16 is connected to the nozzle sway 14, and the other end is fixed relative to the machine body 100. When the push rod 3 switches from the first operating position to the second operating position, the connecting rod 9 abuts against the lever 141 to make the nozzle sway 14 rotate in the second direction. The second torsion spring 16 accumulates elastic potential energy and releases elastic potential energy to drive the nozzle sway 14 to rotate in the opposite direction of the second direction.

[0087] Here, the second torsion spring 16 is provided so that after the nozzle swing member 14 is driven to rotate by an external force, it can automatically return to its original position by releasing the elastic potential energy of the torsion spring, without the need for manual reset, which improves the convenience of operation and the degree of automation of the equipment, and makes the entire process of fixing and releasing the empty pipe smoother and more efficient.

[0088] A second torsion spring 16 is installed at the pivot of the nozzle sway 14, and is mounted around the pivot of the nozzle sway 14. A lever 141 extends from the nozzle sway 14 and engages with the connecting rod 9. One end of the second torsion spring 16 is connected to the nozzle sway 14, and the other end is fixed relative to the machine body 100, allowing the second torsion spring 16 to influence the rotation of the nozzle sway 14.

[0089] Specifically, when push rod 3 switches from the first operating position to the second operating position, actuator 4 drives connecting rod 9 to swing via transmission plate 7. During this process, connecting rod 9 abuts against lever 141 on nozzle swing member 14. As actuator 4 continues to rotate, connecting rod 9 pushes lever 141, causing nozzle swing member 14 to rotate in the second direction. Simultaneously with the rotation of nozzle swing member 14, second torsion spring 16 is twisted, accumulating elastic potential energy. When actuator 4 no longer applies force to connecting rod 9 via transmission plate 7, there is no external force pushing nozzle swing member 14 to rotate, and the previously accumulated elastic potential energy in second torsion spring 16 begins to release it. Since one end of second torsion spring 16 is connected to nozzle swing member 14 and the other end is relatively fixed to machine body 100, under the action of elastic potential energy, second torsion spring 16 drives nozzle swing member 14 to rotate in the opposite direction of the second direction, causing nozzle swing member 14 to return to its original position or close to its original position, completing one working cycle. In this embodiment, see Figure 1 As shown, the second direction is counterclockwise.
