Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of sampling equipment for measuring the stiffness of cigarette label indentations, specifically a novel indentation stiffness sampler. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of the tobacco industry and the increasing demands for quality, the quality management philosophy has evolved from simply ensuring product quality to achieving exquisite results on every single cigarette. Beyond physicochemical testing indicators, the success of quality management depends on the adaptability of the product to higher standards. Crease stiffness is one such important testing indicator. Whether the crease stiffness is normal and whether the crease stiffness of the cigarette label is full determines the overall effect of the label's formation. Before testing crease stiffness, the cigarette label needs to be cut, which requires the use of a crease stiffness sampler.

[0003] Traditional indentation samplers have only one cutting groove, which means that when testing small boxes, only one or two parts of the cigarette label can be cut at a time, resulting in low efficiency and a cumbersome process. Moreover, regardless of whether it is a carton or a small box, a module cut from one part needs to be cut three times to form a shape for testing. This leads to excessive time consumption for cutting modules when testing a complete set of small boxes. In addition, the direction of the modules cut is different when testing the stiffness of different parts of the cigarette label and small box. Cutting small boxes requires changing the direction three times, and carton boxes require changing the direction four times. This requires constantly changing the position according to the cutting part. The cut samples need to be manually placed into an electronic balance for measurement, which also consumes a certain amount of time. Further improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

The mounting groove 2 is provided in the middle of the bottom wall of the sampling box 1, and the die-cutting frame 3 is movably connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove 2. The die-cutting frame 3 is provided with 6 detection sampling grooves.

[0026] The sampling box 1 has a mold inlet 4 on one side and a mold outlet 5 on the other side. The front and rear ends of the bottom wall of the sampling box 1 are provided with slide grooves 6.

The top of the outer wall of the slider 9 is provided with a clamping assembly. The clamping assembly is used to transport the die-cutting frame 3.

[0027] A set of limiting grooves 10 is provided on one side of the bottom wall of the sampling box 1. A limiting plate 11 is provided on the inner wall of the limiting groove 10.

[0028] Furthermore, by setting up the die inlet 4 and die outlet 5, and the transmission system consisting of the threaded rod 8 and slider 9 driven by the first servo motor 7, in conjunction with the design of the slide groove 6, the entry, exit and positioning of the die-cutting frame 3 are made more stable and reliable. The addition of the clamping components further improves the stability of the die-cutting frame 3 during transportation. In addition, the setting of the limiting groove 10, limiting plate 11 and the first hydraulic cylinder 12 provides additional fixed support for the die-cutting frame 3. Furthermore, the setting of the second hydraulic cylinder 13, air pump 14 and vacuum suction cup 15 that fit into the four corners of the mounting groove 2 can firmly adsorb and fix the die-cutting frame 3, which can improve the stability of the die-cutting frame 3 entering or leaving the mounting groove 2, thereby improving the versatility and flexibility of the equipment.

[0029] Example 2: Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the clamping assembly includes a movable groove 16, and the movable groove 16 is disposed on one side of the top of the outer wall of the slider 9.

[0032] Furthermore, the second servo motor 18 installed on the outer wall of the slider 9 drives the bidirectional lead screw 19 to rotate, thereby driving the moving block 17 to move synchronously and relative along the bidirectional lead screw 19. The first rotating shaft 20, connecting rod 21 and second rotating shaft 32 installed on one side of the moving block 17 further drive the opening and closing action of the clamping block 22. This series of mechanical linkages not only realizes the stable clamping and precise positioning of the die-cutting frame 3, but also greatly improves the automation and efficiency of the sampling operation, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the sampling process.

The sampling plate 24 is equipped with 6 sets of sampling blades 25 at the bottom, which can accurately and quickly sample the samples in the die-cutting frame 3. The feed port 26 on the front facilitates the rapid input of the material to be tested, while the drawer 27 at the bottom is designed to facilitate the collection of the cut sampled material. The weight of the sampled material is displayed in real time through the weighing plate 31 and the weight display screen 29 on the front, which provides convenience for subsequent quality analysis.

[0037] The working principle involves a transmission system consisting of an inlet 4, an outlet 5, and a first servo motor 7, driven by a threaded rod 8 and a slider 9. This, combined with a sliding groove 6, ensures more stable and reliable entry, exit, and positioning of the die-cutting frame 3. The addition of clamping components further enhances the stability of the die-cutting frame 3 during transportation. Furthermore, the limiting groove 10, limiting plate 11, and first hydraulic cylinder 12 provide additional fixing support for the die-cutting frame 3. The second hydraulic cylinder 13, air pump 14, and vacuum suction cup 15, fitted at the four corners of the mounting groove 2, firmly adsorb and fix the die-cutting frame 3, improving the stability of the die-cutting frame 3 entering or exiting the mounting groove 2, thereby enhancing the equipment's versatility and flexibility. A second servo motor 18 mounted on the outer wall of the slider 9 drives a bidirectional lead screw 19 to rotate, which in turn drives a moving block 17 to move synchronously and relative along the bidirectional lead screw 19.

This series of mechanical linkages not only achieves stable clamping and precise positioning of the die-cutting frame 3, but also greatly improves the automation and efficiency of the sampling operation, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the sampling process. The third hydraulic cylinder 23 installed on the top of the sampling box 1 has its output end penetrating through the top of the box to connect to the sampling plate 24. The six sets of sampling blades 25 equipped at the bottom of the sampling plate 24 can accurately and quickly sample the samples in the die-cutting frame 3. The feed port 26 on the front facilitates the rapid input of the material to be tested, while the drawer 27 at the bottom is designed to collect the sampled material after cutting. The weight of the sampled material is displayed in real time through the weighing plate 31 and the weight display screen 29 on the front, providing convenience for subsequent quality analysis.
