[0045] The technical scheme of the utility model is further illustrated below by specific embodiments in conjunction with the drawings.

[0046] The embodiment provides a filter rod conveying device with a cleaning mechanism, which is used for conveying cigarette filter rods, can clean foreign matters on a conveying belt, reduces the foreign matters on the conveying belt, thereby reducing the amount of foreign matters adhered to the cigarette filter rods from the conveying belt, improves the cleanliness of the cigarette filter rods and reduces the defective rate.

[0047] As shown in Figures 1 to 8 The filter rod conveying device with the cleaning mechanism 400 includes two support plates 100, a filter rod storage frame 200, a conveying mechanism 300, and the cleaning mechanism 400. The two support plates 100 are arranged opposite to each other and parallel to each other, and are used to support the entire filter rod conveying device with the cleaning mechanism 400. The filter rod storage frame 200 in the embodiment is used to store cigarette filter rods, and the cigarette filter rods in the filter rod storage frame 200 can roll to the conveying mechanism 300 and then be conveyed by the conveying mechanism 300. The conveying mechanism 300 includes a conveying drive assembly 310 and a conveying belt 320. The conveying drive assembly 310 is used to drive the conveying belt 320 to rotate, and the cigarette filter rods in the filter rod storage frame 200 can roll to one end of the conveying belt 320, and the conveying belt 320 conveys the cigarette filter rods at the one end to the other end and to other workstations. The conveying belt 320 is located between the two support plates 100, so that the two support plates 100 and the conveying belt 320 can cooperate with each other to form a conveying space. By shielding of the support plates 100, the cigarette filter rods on the conveying belt 320 cannot fall off, reducing the waste rate.

[0048] As shown in Figure 4 The cleaning mechanism 400 in the embodiment is located below the filter rod storage frame 200 and is used to clean foreign matters on the part of the conveying belt 320 located below the filter rod storage frame 200. As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 The cleaning mechanism 400 includes a first linkage assembly 410 movably connected between the two support plates 100 and a cleaning piece 420 connected to the first linkage assembly 410. The length direction of the cleaning piece 420 is the same as the width direction of the conveying belt 320, and the cleaning piece 420 can be in contact with the outer surface of one end of the conveying belt 320 to remove foreign matters on the outer surface of the one end of the conveying belt 320. In some optional embodiments, the length of the cleaning piece 420 is greater than, less than, or equal to the width of the conveying belt 320. When the length of the cleaning piece 420 is equal to the width of the conveying belt 320, all regions in the width direction of the conveying belt 320 can be in contact with the cleaning piece 420 as much as possible, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the conveying belt 320 and reducing the cleaning blind area.

[0049] The first linkage assembly 410 in the embodiment is connected with the conveying driving assembly 310. The conveying driving assembly 310 can drive the first linkage assembly 410 to move, so that the first linkage assembly 410 drives the cleaning member 420 to contact the outer surface of one end of the conveying belt 320, thereby realizing the cleaning of the foreign matters. In this way, the utilization rate of the conveying driving assembly 310 is improved. The conveying driving assembly 310 is not only used for driving the conveying belt 320, but also can be used for driving the cleaning member 420 to move close to the conveying belt 320, thereby enabling the cleaning member 420 to clean the foreign matters on the conveying belt 320, and the function of the conveying driving assembly 310 is enriched.

[0050] The filter rod conveying device with the cleaning mechanism 400 provided in the embodiment is provided with the cleaning mechanism 400. The cleaning mechanism 400 comprises the first linkage assembly 410 and the cleaning member 420. The first linkage assembly 410 is connected with the conveying driving assembly 310 of the conveying mechanism 300. The conveying driving assembly 310 can drive the cleaning member 420 to move through the first linkage assembly 410, so that the cleaning member 420 contacts the conveying belt 320. The cleaning member 420 is stationary and contacts the conveying belt 320. The conveying belt 320 rotates, so that the foreign matters on the conveying belt 320 can be scraped or touched down by the cleaning member 420. The foreign matters attached to the conveying belt 320 are reduced. The cleanliness of the conveying belt 320 is improved. The amount of foreign matters carried by the filter rod on the conveying belt 320 is reduced. The cleanliness of the filter rod is improved. The defective rate of the filter rod is reduced.

[0051] In one implementation manner, as shown in Figure 1 the filter rod conveying device with the cleaning mechanism 400 further comprises an intermittent feeding mechanism 500. The conveying driving assembly 310 is connected with the first linkage assembly 410 through the intermittent feeding mechanism 500.

[0052] Exemplarily, the intermittent feeding mechanism 500 comprises a follower assembly 510, a rotating feeding plate 520 and a first elastic reset member (not shown in the figure). The follower assembly 510 is drivingly connected between the conveying driving assembly 310 and the rotating feeding plate 520. When the conveying driving assembly 310 is in action, the follower assembly 510 is driven to move, so that the follower assembly 510 drives the rotating feeding plate 520 to move. The rotating feeding plate 520 in the embodiment is rotatably connected to the filter rod storage frame 200, and has a blocking position and a feeding position relative to the filter rod storage frame 200. When the rotating feeding plate 520 is located at the blocking position, the filter rod in the filter rod storage frame 200 is blocked from moving to the conveying belt 320. When the rotating feeding plate 520 is driven by the follower assembly 510 to rotate from the blocking position to the feeding position, the end of the rotating feeding plate 520 away from the filter rod storage frame 200 is inclined towards the conveying belt 320. When the rotating feeding plate 520 is located at the feeding position, the filter rod in the filter rod storage frame 200 can move along the rotating feeding plate 520 to the conveying belt 320, that is, the rotating feeding plate 520 guides and supports the movement of the filter rod, so that the filter rod can roll on the rotating feeding plate 520 and roll to the conveying belt 320, and then be conveyed by the conveying belt 320.

[0053] It is emphasized that the conveying driving assembly 310 in the embodiment is used to drive the follower assembly 510 to move. When the follower assembly 510 is in motion, the follower assembly 510 can intermittently drive the rotating feeding plate 520 to rotate from the blocking position to the feeding position. The first elastic reset member in the embodiment is connected to the rotating feeding plate 520, and is used to drive the rotating feeding plate 520 to move from the feeding position to the blocking position. That is, when the rotating feeding plate 520 is located at the feeding position, the first elastic reset member is in an elastic deformation state. If the driving force of the follower assembly 510 on the rotating feeding plate 520 disappears, the first elastic reset member can drive the rotating feeding plate 520 to move towards the blocking position until the rotating feeding plate 520 is located at the blocking position.

[0054] In use, the conveying driving assembly 310 of the conveying mechanism 300 is first controlled to start, and the conveying driving assembly 310 drives the conveying belt 320 to rotate. At the same time, the conveying driving assembly 310 drives the follow-up assembly 510 to move, so that the follow-up assembly 510 drives the rotating feeding plate 520 to rotate intermittently from the blocking position to the feeding position. When the rotating feeding plate 520 moves to the feeding position, the rotating feeding plate 520 drives the first elastic reset member to be elastically deformed, so that the first elastic reset member stores elastic potential energy. When the driving force of the follow-up assembly 510 disappears, the rotating feeding plate 520 rotates from the feeding position to the blocking position under the action of the elastic force of the first elastic reset member. The cooperation between the follow-up assembly 510 and the first elastic reset member enables the rotating feeding plate 520 to be intermittently located at the feeding position, so that the cigarette filter rods in the filter rod storage frame 200 are intermittently moved to the conveying belt, preventing too many cigarette filter rods from causing blockage on the conveying belt 320 and affecting the flow of the cigarette filter rods, and having high conveying efficiency.

[0055] The conveying driving assembly 310 provides power for the rotation of the conveying belt 320. In some alternative embodiments, the conveying driving assembly 310 includes a motor (not shown in the figure), a driving roller (not shown in the figure) driven to rotate by the motor, and a driven roller (not shown in the figure) arranged in parallel with the driving roller. The conveying belt 320 is arranged around the driving roller and the driven roller, and the outer circumferential surface of the driving roller and the inner side surface of the conveying belt 320 both have driving teeth. The driving teeth on the driving roller are engaged with the driving teeth on the conveying belt 320, so that when the driving roller rotates, the conveying belt 320 can be driven to rotate. The driven roller is used to support the conveying belt 320. Of course, it can be understood that the driving assembly can also have other structures as long as it can drive the conveying belt 320 to rotate, and the present embodiment does not limit this.

[0056] The specific structure of the follow-up assembly 510 can be various. Exemplarily, the present embodiment provides a follow-up assembly 510. As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The follow-up assembly 510 includes a first transmission wheel 511, a second transmission wheel 512, a transmission belt 513, a connecting shaft 514, and a poking member 515. The first transmission wheel 511 is in transmission connection with the conveying driving assembly 310, and the conveying driving assembly 310 is used to drive the first transmission wheel 511 to rotate. It should be noted that the first transmission wheel 511 can be coaxially connected with the driving roller of the conveying driving assembly 310, so that the driving roller can drive the first transmission wheel 511 to rotate when the driving roller rotates. Of course, it can be understood that the first transmission wheel 511 can be coaxially connected with the driven roller, and the present embodiment does not limit this.

[0057] The transmission belt 513 in the embodiment is in transmission connection between the first transmission wheel 511 and the second transmission wheel 512, so that when the first transmission wheel 511 rotates, the second transmission wheel 512 can be driven to rotate by the transmission belt 513, specifically, the second transmission wheel 512 also rotates. In the embodiment, the second transmission wheel 512 can be arranged in a vertical direction apart from the first transmission wheel 511. The connecting shaft 514 is coaxially connected with the second transmission wheel 512 and rotationally connected with the filter rod storage frame 200. In the embodiment, the connecting shaft 514 is located outside the filter rod storage frame 200 and can be rotationally connected with the filter rod storage frame 200 through a bearing or the like, so that the support of the connecting shaft 514 can be achieved. It should be noted that the extension direction of the connecting shaft 514 is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the first transmission wheel 511 and the second transmission wheel 512. In some alternative embodiments, the connecting shaft 514 is arranged perpendicular to the extension part 220 of the filter rod storage frame 200.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The actuator 515 is arranged on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 514, specifically, on the circumferential outer wall of the connecting shaft 514. The actuator 515 is used to intermittently drive the rotating feeding plate 520 to rotate to the feeding position, that is, the actuator 515 can contact the rotating feeding plate 520 and drive the rotating feeding plate 520 to move from the blocking position to the feeding position. When the rotating feeding plate 520 is located at the feeding position, the actuator 515 is separated from the rotating feeding plate 520 and does not continue to provide driving force to the rotating feeding plate 520.

[0059] The follow-up assembly 510 provided in the embodiment has a relatively simple structure, so that the overall structure of the filter rod conveying device with a cleaning mechanism is relatively simple and the cost is relatively low. Moreover, through the transmission of the first transmission wheel 511, the second transmission wheel 512 and the transmission belt 513, the stability and reliability in the transmission process are improved, thereby ensuring the intermittent feeding. In addition, the follow-up assembly 510 is arranged in the embodiment, the driving force of the conveying driving assembly 310 is directly used to drive the first transmission wheel 511 to rotate, without the need to arrange an additional driving structure, thereby reducing the number of components of the filter rod conveying device with a cleaning mechanism, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the filter rod conveying device with a cleaning mechanism.

[0060] The follow-up assembly 510 in the embodiment is arranged outside the filter rod storage frame 200, while the rotating feeding plate 520 is located inside the filter rod storage frame 200. In the embodiment, in order to facilitate the driving of the rotating feeding plate 520 by the follow-up assembly 510. Figures 2 to 4As shown, the intermittent feeding mechanism 500 further comprises a connecting assembly 530. The connecting assembly 530 comprises a first connecting piece 531 and a second connecting piece 532. The first connecting piece 531 is slidingly connected to the filter rod storage frame 200 in the vertical direction, and one end of the first connecting piece 531 is located outside the filter rod storage frame 200. The actuating member 515 intermittently actuates the one end of the first connecting piece 531 to move the first connecting piece 531 relative to the filter rod storage frame 200 in the vertical direction. The other end of the first connecting piece 531 is located inside the filter rod storage frame 200 and is connected to the second connecting piece 532, that is, the first connecting piece 531 is arranged through the filter rod storage frame 200. When the first connecting piece 531 moves in the vertical direction, the second connecting piece 532 is driven to move in the vertical direction. The second connecting piece 532 extends in the horizontal direction and is connected to the rotating feeding plate 520 and is used to drive the rotating feeding plate 520 to rotate.

[0061] It should be noted that when the actuating member 515 actuates the one end of the first connecting piece 531, the first connecting piece 531 moves relative to the filter rod storage frame 200 in the vertical direction, and the second connecting piece 532 is driven to rotate in the vertical direction to drive the rotating feeding plate 520 to rotate from the blocking position to the feeding position. When the actuating member 515 is separated from the first connecting piece 531, the rotating feeding plate 520 is driven to rotate from the feeding position to the blocking position under the action of the first elastic return member, thereby achieving one-time feeding. Repeating the above steps can achieve intermittent feeding. By arranging the first connecting piece 531 and the second connecting piece 532, on the one hand, the first connecting piece 531 can move in the vertical direction when the actuating member 515 actuates the first connecting piece 531, and on the other hand, the second connecting piece 532 and the rotating feeding plate 520 can have a larger connection area, thereby improving the driving effect of the rotating feeding plate 520 and reducing the risk of connection failure between the second connecting piece 532 and the rotating feeding plate 520. The first connecting piece 531 and the second connecting piece 532 in the embodiment can both be strip-shaped blocks, and the embodiment does not limit this.

[0062] As shown in the example, Figure 3 The extension 220 of the filter rod storage frame 200 is provided with a vertical sliding groove 221, and the first connecting piece 531 is arranged through the vertical sliding groove 221 and can slide in the length direction of the vertical sliding groove 221 (i.e., the vertical direction). The arrangement of the vertical sliding groove 221 can limit the highest position and the lowest position of the first connecting piece 531 in the vertical direction, thereby avoiding the problem that the rotating feeding plate 520 cannot be docked with the conveying belt 320 due to the large movement range of the first connecting piece 531, and improving the reliability of conveying the filter rods.

[0063] In some optional embodiments, the connecting assembly 530 further comprises a second elastic return member (not shown in the figure). The second elastic return member is arranged between the first connecting member 531 and the filter rod storage frame 200. The actuating member 515 can drive the first connecting member 531 to move in the vertically downward direction. The second elastic return member always has a tendency to drive the first connecting member 531 to move in the vertically upward direction, so as to facilitate the return of the first connecting member 531, and then facilitate the first connecting member 531 to drive the rotating discharging plate 520 to move from the discharging position to the blocking position through the second connecting member 532. By arranging the second elastic return member, on the one hand, the return of the first connecting member 531 is facilitated. On the other hand, the second elastic return member can assist the first elastic return member to drive the rotating discharging plate 520 to move from the discharging position to the blocking position, so as to reduce the damage of the first elastic return member due to large load, and prolong the service life of the first elastic return member.

[0064] Optionally, the first elastic return member can be a torsional spring. One arm of the torsional spring abuts against the filter rod storage frame 200, and the other arm abuts against the rotating discharging plate 520. When the rotating discharging plate 520 moves to the discharging position, the torsional spring is elastically deformed. After the driving force on the rotating discharging plate 520 disappears, the torsional spring drives the rotating discharging plate 520 to move to the blocking position.

[0065] Similarly to the first elastic return member, the second elastic return member can also be a torsional spring. In this case, one arm of the torsional spring abuts against the extension 220, and the other arm abuts against the first connecting member 531. When the first connecting member 531 moves vertically downward, the torsional spring is elastically deformed. After the external force on the first connecting member 531 disappears, the torsional spring drives the first connecting member 531 to move vertically upward to return. It can be understood that the second elastic return member can also be a spring. The spring extends in the vertical direction. One end of the spring is connected to the extension 220, and the other end of the spring is connected to the first connecting member 531. When the first connecting member 531 moves downward, the spring is compressed. After the external force on the first connecting member 531 disappears, the spring drives the first connecting member 531 to move upward to return.

[0066] Optionally, in the present embodiment, the connecting shaft 514 rotates one circle each time, and the actuating member 515 actuates the first connecting member 531 once to realize one discharging. After the actuating member 515 actuates the first connecting member 531 to move in the vertically downward direction by a preset distance, the actuating member 515 is separated from the first connecting member 531. In this circle, the actuating member 515 will not actuate the first connecting member 531 again. In the next circle, the actuating member 515 contacts the top of the first connecting member 531 again, and actuates the first connecting member 531 to move in the vertically downward direction.

[0067] In some optional embodiments, as shown in FIG. 9, the filter rod storage frame 200 further comprises a rotating discharging plate 520. The rotating discharging plate 520 is arranged on the filter rod storage frame 200. The rotating discharging plate 520 is rotatable relative to the filter rod storage frame 200. The rotating discharging plate 520 comprises a discharging position and a blocking position. When the rotating discharging plate 520 is in the discharging position, the filter rod storage frame 200 is in the discharging state. When the rotating discharging plate 520 is in the blocking position, the filter rod storage frame 200 is in the blocking state. Figure 3As shown, the end surface of the toggle member 515 away from the connecting shaft 514 is a circular arc surface 5151, so that the circular arc surface 5151 of the toggle member 515 is in contact with the first connecting member 531, so that the contact of the two is more smooth, preventing the toggle member 515 and the first connecting member 531 from being stuck, ensuring that the toggle member 515 smoothly toggles the first connecting member 531, and then ensuring that the rotating material discharging plate 520 is smoothly rotated to the material discharging position, ensuring smooth material discharging.

[0068] The first linkage assembly 410 in the embodiment is connected to the rotating material discharging plate 520, and specifically connected to the bottom surface of the rotating material discharging plate 520. When the rotating material discharging plate 520 rotates, the cleaning member 420 can be driven to move by the first linkage assembly 410, so that the cleaning member 420 is in contact with the conveying belt 320, and then scrapes off foreign matter on the conveying belt 320. In the embodiment, when the rotating material discharging plate 520 is located at the material discharging position, the cleaning member 420 is in contact with the outer surface of one end of the conveying belt 320; when the rotating material discharging plate 520 is located at the material blocking position, the cleaning member 420 is spaced apart from the conveying belt 320. When the rotating material discharging plate 520 switches between the material discharging position and the material blocking position, the cleaning member 420 switches between the position in contact with the conveying belt 320 and the position not in contact with the conveying belt 320, so that the foreign matter on the conveying belt 320 can be intermittently cleaned. In this way, on the basis of reducing the foreign matter on the conveying belt 320, the conveying driving assembly 310 is fully utilized, and the space occupied by the filter rod conveying device with the cleaning mechanism 400 is saved.

[0069] In one embodiment, the cleaning member 420 can be a roller, and the outer peripheral surface of the roller has a rubber layer. The roller is in rolling contact with the conveying belt 320, so that the rubber layer on the roller can stick the foreign matter on the conveying belt 320, and then clean the conveying belt 320. The rubber layer on the roller can have multiple layers. When the outermost layer adheres more foreign matter, the outermost layer can be torn off to expose a new rubber layer. The conveying driving assembly 310 drives the cleaning member 420 to intermittently contact the conveying belt 320 through the rotating material discharging plate 520 of the intermittent material discharging mechanism 500, so that the foreign matter on the conveying belt 320 can be adhered by the cleaning member 420 when needed. For example, when the conveying speed of the conveying belt 320 meets that the area of the conveying belt 320 on which the foreign matter is adsorbed by the cleaning member 420 is just moved to the rotating material discharging plate 520, the rotating material discharging plate 520 just discharges the material, so that the filter rods are all located on the area of the conveying belt 320 that has been cleaned, reducing the amount of foreign matter adhered to the filter rods, and also saving the rubber layer on the roller, thereby saving the cost.

[0070] Optionally, as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the first linkage assembly 410 includes a cleaning shaft 411, a first plate 412, a second plate 413, and a third plate 414. The two ends of the cleaning shaft 411 are rotatably connected to the two support plates 100, that is, one end of the cleaning shaft 411 is rotatably connected to one support plate 100, and the other end is rotatably connected to the other support plate 100, so that the cleaning shaft 411 can rotate. The first plate 412 is fixedly connected between the rotating discharging plate 520 and the cleaning shaft 411. Specifically, one side of the first plate 412 in the width direction is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating discharging plate 520 facing the conveying belt 320, and the other side of the first plate 412 in the width direction is fixedly connected to the side wall of the cleaning shaft 411.

[0071] In some optional embodiments, as Figure 5 As shown, the first linkage assembly 410 further includes a cleaning connecting plate 430, and one side of the first plate 412 in the width direction is fixedly connected to the rotating discharging plate 520 through the cleaning connecting plate 430, that is, one side of the first plate 412 in the width direction is fixedly connected to the cleaning connecting plate 430, and the cleaning connecting plate 430 is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating discharging plate 520 facing the conveying belt 320.

[0072] For example, as Figure 5 As shown, the cleaning connecting plate 430 includes a first connecting portion 431 and a second connecting portion 432, one end of the first connecting portion 431 is fixedly connected to the rotating discharging plate 520, the second connecting portion 432 is fixedly connected to the other end of the first connecting portion 431, and one side of the first plate 412 in the width direction is fixedly connected to the end face of the second connecting portion 432 away from the first connecting portion 431.

[0073] The first plate 412 and the second plate 413 in the embodiment are both fixedly connected to the cleaning shaft 411, that is, the second plate 413 is also fixedly connected to the outer peripheral wall of the cleaning shaft 411. The second plate 413 is arranged at an angle with the first plate 412, and the angle between the first plate 412 and the second plate 413 is greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees. As Figure 7 As shown, the bottom surface of the second plate 413 is provided with a cleaning sliding groove 4131, the third plate 414 is slidingly arranged in the cleaning sliding groove 4131, and the third plate 414 and the bottom wall of the cleaning sliding groove 4131 have a cleaning elastic member 415 therebetween, which always has a tendency to drive the third plate 414 to slide out of the cleaning sliding groove 4131. The cleaning member 420 is connected to the part of the third plate 414 located outside the cleaning sliding groove 4131. By arranging the cleaning elastic member 415, the cleaning member 420 can elastically contact the conveying belt 320, avoiding the risk of scratching or scratching the conveying belt 320 by the cleaning member 420, and improving reliability and safety. By arranging the third plate 414, the connection strength of the first linkage assembly 410 and the cleaning member 420 is improved.

[0074] Exemplarily, the first limiting block 4132 is arranged in the cleaning groove 4131, and the third plate 414 is arranged on the second limiting block 4141 in the cleaning groove 4131. In the width direction of the second plate 413, the first limiting block 4132 can abut against the second limiting block 4141 to limit the second limiting block 4141 from sliding out of the cleaning groove 4131, thereby achieving the sliding connection of the second plate 413 and the third plate 414 and preventing the two from being separated.

[0075] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 6 The cleaning member 420 is a roller, and the two ends of the third plate 414 are fixedly provided with the connecting frames 416. The roller is rollingly connected between the two connecting frames 416 and can rollingly contact the conveying belt 320. In this way, the roller can remove the foreign matters on the conveying belt 320 without scratching the conveying belt 320, thereby achieving higher reliability.

[0076] In other embodiments, the cleaning member 420 can not be a roller but a plate. The side of the cleaning member 420 away from the third plate 414 is conical in cross section, that is, the part of the plate-shaped cleaning member 420 facing the conveying belt 320 has a smaller size, so that the cleaning member 420 can contact the conveying belt 320 and remove the foreign matters on the conveying belt 320, thereby improving the cleaning effect and avoiding interference between the cleaning member 420 and the conveying belt 320.

[0077] In one embodiment, the cleaning mechanism 400 further comprises a cleaning elastic return member (not shown in the figure) arranged between the cleaning shaft 411 and the support plate 100 and used to drive the cleaning shaft 411 to return. In this embodiment, when the rotating discharging plate 520 moves to the discharging position, the first plate 412 is driven by the cleaning connecting plate 430 to move away from the conveying belt 320. At this time, the cleaning shaft 411 rotates and presses the cleaning elastic return member. When the external force of the first plate 412 on the cleaning shaft 411 disappears, the cleaning shaft 411 is driven to rotate in the opposite direction and return under the action of the cleaning elastic return member. For example, the cleaning elastic return member can be a torsion spring. The arrangement position of the torsion spring can be flexible as long as the above function can be achieved, and this embodiment does not limit the same. It should be noted that, due to the limiting of the cleaning connecting plate 430, the cleaning shaft 411 can remain in the initial position when the cleaning connecting plate 430 does not drive the cleaning shaft 411.

[0078] In order to prevent the foreign matters (such as dust and impurities) scraped by the cleaning mechanism 400 from being attached to the conveying belt 320 again, exemplarily, as shown in Figure 4As shown, the filter rod conveying device with the cleaning mechanism 400 further comprises a collection box 600, which is arranged below the cleaning mechanism 400 at one end of the conveying belt 320 and is used to collect the foreign matters falling from the conveying belt 320. In one embodiment, the top of the collection box 600 is open to facilitate the collection of the foreign matters. In other embodiments, the top of the collection box 600 can be provided with a cover, and the cover is provided with an opening facing the cleaning mechanism 400 to further reduce the risk of the foreign matters escaping from the collection box 600. In the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 the part of the conveying belt 320 near the filter rod storage frame 200 is located in the collection box 600, and the cleaning member 420 can contact the part located in the collection box 600 to facilitate the foreign matters scraped off to fall into the collection box 600 under the action of gravity.

[0079] Further optionally, as shown in Figure 4 the filter rod conveying device with the cleaning mechanism 400 further comprises an anti-accumulation assembly 700. The anti-accumulation assembly 700 is used to prevent the foreign matters in the collection box 600 from accumulating. As shown in Figure 8 the anti-accumulation assembly 700 comprises an L-shaped plate 710, a rotating rod 720, a pushed plate 730 and a pushing plate 740. The one end of the L-shaped plate 710 is fixedly connected to the surface of the second plate 413 away from the conveying belt 320. The rotating rod 720, the pushed plate 730 and the pushing plate 740 are located in the collection box 600, and the rotating rod 720 extends in the horizontal direction. In the present embodiment, the extending direction of the rotating rod 720 is the same as the width direction of the conveying belt. The rotating rod 720 is rotationally connected to the inner wall of the collection box 600, so that the rotating rod 720 can rotate. For example, the two ends of the rotating rod 720 are rotationally connected to the opposite side walls of the collection box 600. The pushed plate 730 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating rod 720, i.e., the pushed plate 730 is located above the rotating rod 720 and is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating rod 720. The pushing plate 740 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating rod 720, i.e., the pushing plate 740 is located below the rotating rod 720 and is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating rod 720. The other end of the L-shaped plate 710 is in contact with the pushed plate 730. When the second plate 413 moves, the pushed plate 730 can be moved by the other end of the L-shaped plate 710, and the movement of the pushed plate 730 can drive the rotating rod 720 to rotate, and in turn drive the pushing plate 740 to swing in the collection box 600 to push the foreign matters in the collection box 600, so as to prevent the foreign matters in the collection box 600 from adhering to the conveying belt 320 due to the accumulation of the foreign matters.

[0080] It should be noted that the pushing plate 740 is arranged at an angle with the pushed plate 730, and the angle between the pushing plate 740 and the pushed plate 730 is greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees. The end of the pushing plate 740 away from the pushed plate 730 is inclined towards the conveying belt 320, so as to push the foreign matter under the conveying belt 320 flat or away, thereby avoiding the foreign matter from being accumulated too high and adhering to the conveying belt 320.

[0081] Optionally, the anti-accumulation assembly 700 further comprises an anti-accumulation elastic reset member (not shown in the figure), wherein the anti-accumulation elastic reset member is arranged between the rotating rod 720 and the collection box 600 and is used to drive the rotating rod 720 to reset. When the second plate 413 drives the pushed plate 730 to move towards the conveying belt 320 through the L-shaped plate 710, the rotating rod 720 rotates and presses the anti-accumulation elastic reset member. When the force of the pushed plate 730 on the rotating rod 720 disappears, the anti-accumulation elastic reset member drives the rotating rod 720 to rotate reversely, so as to reset the rotating rod 720. For example, the anti-accumulation elastic reset member can be a torsion spring. The arrangement position of the torsion spring can be flexible, as long as the above functions can be achieved, which is not limited in the embodiment. It should be noted that, since the L-shaped plate 710 is in contact with the pushed plate 730, when the L-shaped plate 710 does not drive the pushed plate 730, the rotating rod 720 can be kept at the initial position under the limitation of the L-shaped plate 710.

[0082] In some optional embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 The collection box 600 comprises a side frame 610 and a sliding bottom plate 620 slidingly connected to the bottom of the side frame 610. The side frame 610 is fixedly connected to the support plate 100, so that the position of the side frame 610 relative to the support plate 100 is fixed. The side frame 610 and the sliding bottom plate 620 cooperatively form a collection space for collecting foreign matter. The side frame 610 and the sliding bottom plate 620 can be slidingly connected in various ways. For example, the side frame 610 and the sliding bottom plate 620 can be slidingly connected through a sliding rail and sliding block 820 assembly, or one of the side frame 610 and the sliding bottom plate 620 is provided with a dovetail groove, and the other is provided with a dovetail block slidingly arranged in the dovetail groove, so as to realize the sliding connection of the two. In the embodiment, the sliding bottom plate 620 is slidingly connected to the side frame 610 in the length direction of the conveying belt 320. The sliding connection of the sliding bottom plate 620 relative to the side frame 610, in cooperation with the pushing of the pushing plate 740, can further avoid the accumulation of foreign matter too high.

[0083] In one implementation manner, as shown in Figure 4 The filter rod conveying device with the cleaning mechanism 400 further comprises a second linkage assembly 800. The second linkage assembly 800 is arranged in the collection box 600 and can drive the sliding bottom plate 620 to slide relative to the side frame 610. Specifically, as shown in Figure 8As shown, the second linkage assembly 800 includes a connecting rope 810, a sliding block 820, a hinged rod 830, and a connecting seat 840. One end of the connecting rope 810 is fixedly connected to the push plate 740, and the other end is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding block 820. The sliding block 820 is slidingly arranged in the vertical direction in the side frame 610, the bottom of the sliding block 820 is hinged to one end of the hinged rod 830, the other end of the hinged rod 830 is hinged to the connecting seat 840, and the connecting seat 840 is fixedly connected to the sliding bottom plate 620. When the push plate 740 moves, the sliding block 820 can be driven to move in the vertical direction by the connecting rope 810, and the sliding block 820 moving in the vertical direction can drive the sliding bottom plate 620 to slide relative to the side frame 610 in the length direction of the conveyor belt 320 through the hinged rod 830 and the connecting seat 840.

[0084] In order to enable the cigarette filter rod to roll onto the conveyor belt 320 under the action of its own gravity, optionally, in the embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the plane where the bottom wall of the filter rod storage frame 200 is arranged at an angle with the top surface of the conveyor belt 320, and the angle between the two is not too small, for example, not less than 150 degrees. If the angle is too small, the problem of the cigarette filter rod entering the conveyor belt 320 at the same time and causing congestion of the conveyor belt 320 will occur. The angle between the plane where the bottom wall of the filter rod storage frame 200 is arranged and the top surface of the conveyor belt 320 is also not too small. If the angle is too small, it will affect the effect of the cigarette filter rod rolling onto the conveyor belt 320 under the action of its own gravity, and thus affect the conveying efficiency.

[0085] In some optional embodiments, when the rotating material discharge plate 520 is located at the material blocking position, the angle between the rotating material discharge plate 520 and the bottom wall of the filter rod storage frame 200 is less than a preset angle. The preset angle can be 150 degrees, 145 degrees, 130 degrees, etc., which is not limited in the embodiment. In this way, a V-shaped groove is formed between the rotating material discharge plate 520 and the bottom wall of the filter rod storage frame 200. Due to the shielding of the rotating material discharge plate 520, the cigarette filter rod in the V-shaped groove will not roll onto the conveyor belt 320. When the rotating material discharge plate 520 is located at the material discharging position, the top surface of the rotating material discharge plate 520 is coplanar with the bottom wall of the filter rod storage frame 200, so that the cigarette filter rod at the bottom wall of the filter rod storage frame 200 can smoothly roll onto the rotating material discharge plate 520 and roll onto the conveyor belt 320 through the rotating material discharge plate 520, ensuring the smoothness of the rolling of the cigarette filter rod.

[0086] Exemplarily, as shown in Figure 5As shown, one side of the rotating feeding plate 520 in the width direction is rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the filter rod storage frame 200 through the rotating shaft 540, so that the rotating feeding plate 520 can be rotated to be coplanar with the bottom wall of the filter rod storage frame 200. In this embodiment, the two ends of the rotating feeding plate 520 have small gaps with the two extension portions 220, so as to prevent the problem of falling of the cigarette filter rod into the gap and have high reliability.

[0087] During the working of this embodiment, when the conveying driving assembly 310 is started, the rotating feeding plate 520 is driven to rotate by the following assembly 510. During the downward rotation of the rotating feeding plate 520, the cleaning connecting plate 430 is pushed to rotate downward, and the first plate 412 and the cleaning shaft 411 are pushed to rotate when the cleaning connecting plate 430 rotates downward. The second plate 413 and the third plate 414 are moved toward the conveying belt 320 when the cleaning shaft 411 rotates. The third plate 414 is moved toward the conveying belt 320, and the connecting frame 416 is moved toward the conveying belt 320, which drives the cleaning piece 420 to contact the conveying belt 320. The dust, particulate matter and other foreign matters attached to the conveying belt 320 are cleaned by the cleaning piece 420, so as to prevent the attachment of dust and particulate matter from polluting the cigarette filter rod. At the same time, the cleaned foreign matters fall into the collection box 600, so as to prevent the dust and particulate matter from falling to the ground and re-attaching to the conveying belt 320, which affects the conveying effect.

[0088] The L-shaped plate 710 is rotated toward the conveying belt 320 by the rotation of the second plate 413, and the L-shaped plate 710 is rotated toward the conveying belt 320, which contacts the pushed plate 730. The L-shaped plate 710 pushes the pushed plate 730 to rotate downward. The pushed plate 730 is rotated downward, which drives the rotating rod 720 to rotate upward. The rotating rod 720 is rotated upward, which drives the push plate 740 to rotate upward. The foreign matters in the collection box 600 are pushed by the rotation of the push plate 740, so as to prevent the accumulation of the foreign matters in the collection box 600 from being too high, which affects the collection effect. At the same time, the push plate 740 is rotated upward, which drives the connecting rope 810 to move upward. The connecting rope 810 moves upward, which drives the sliding block 820 to move upward. The sliding block 820 moves upward, which drives one end of the hinged rod 830 to move upward. The one end of the hinged rod 830 moves upward, which drives the connecting seat 840 to move toward the sliding block 820. The connecting seat 840 moves toward the sliding block 820, which drives the sliding bottom plate 620 to slide relative to the side frame 610. The sliding of the sliding bottom plate 620 can make the collected foreign matters flatly lie in the collection box 600, which improves the collection effect and prevents the accumulation of the foreign matters from being too high.

[0089] The embodiment also provides a filter rod conveying method with the cleaning mechanism 400, which is applied to the filter rod conveying device with the cleaning mechanism 400.

[0090] The conveying driving assembly 310 is started, and drives the conveying belt 320 to rotate, and drives the first linkage assembly 410 to move;

[0091] The movement of the first linkage assembly 410 can drive the cleaning piece 420 to move close to one end of the conveying belt 320, and contact the outer surface of the one end of the conveying belt 320, so as to remove foreign matters on the outer surface of the conveying belt 320.

[0092] The filter rod conveying method with the cleaning mechanism 400 provided by the embodiment can clean the foreign matters on the conveying belt 320, reduce the amount of foreign matters carried on the conveying belt 320, and further reduce the risk of the cigarette filter rod adhering to the foreign matters on the conveying belt 320, so as to ensure the cleanliness of the cigarette filter rod and reduce the defective rate of the cigarette filter rod.
