Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cigarette product processing technology, and in particular to a cigarette pack output device. Background Technology

[0002] The YB517 small-pack transparent paper packaging machine is an important component of the ZB47 packaging unit, responsible for packaging and conveying the transparent paper for small cigarette packs. The cigarette pack output section is the final part of the YB517 small-pack transparent paper packaging machine. The cigarette pack output system mainly consists of a double-push device, an output turntable device, a rejection device, and a pack replenisher.

[0003] The cigarette pack output system primarily outputs cigarette packs that have completed transparent paper packaging and heat sealing to the carton packaging machine, and automatically rejects defective cigarette packs detected during the transparent paper packaging process. The output turntable device has eight mold boxes dividing it into eight equal parts, forming eight workstations. The output turntable pauses every 45° counterclockwise. Workstation I is the cigarette pack input station; workstation III rejects defective cigarette packs; workstation IV uses a pack replenisher to add cigarette packs; and workstation V outputs cigarette packs into the carton packaging machine's inlet channel.

[0004] Because the YB517 small-box transparent paper packaging machine operates at high speed, the side seals of the transparent paper on the cigarette packs produced are wrinkled. Adjusting the temperature of the soldering iron and the distance between the soldering iron and the cigarette pack improves the situation to some extent, but the effect is unsatisfactory and may even lead to other quality defects, failing to fundamentally solve the problem. Therefore, a small-box transparent paper side-sealing shaping device was installed on the YB517 small-box transparent paper packaging machine. This device is installed at the inlet of the output turntable to shape the cigarette packs as they enter. During production, it was found that the side-sealing shaping device interferes with the machine's existing mold, affecting product quality. Specifically, the existing mold has a positioning block, preventing the designed small-box transparent paper side-sealing shaping device from entering the mold and contacting the cigarette pack, thus failing to achieve its cosmetic purpose. Therefore, a new type of cigarette pack mold needs to be designed to resolve the interference between the side-sealing shaping device and the cigarette pack mold, ensuring smooth machine operation and improving product quality. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cigarette pack output device that can solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0006] This utility model provides a cigarette pack output device, including an output turntable. Multiple molds are arranged around the upper surface of the output turntable. The shape of the molds is a quasi-isosceles trapezoid with the lower base facing outward. An inner baffle and an outer baffle are provided on the outer side of the outer edge of the output turntable. When the molds move, they pass between the inner baffle and the outer baffle.

[0007] Furthermore, the mold is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the output turntable via a bracket.

[0008] Furthermore, the bracket includes a fixing plate and a receiving plate. The fixing plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the output turntable by screws, and the receiving plate protrudes from the outer edge of the output turntable and is fixedly connected to the mold box.

[0009] Furthermore, the bottom of the mold box is provided with a groove, and the shape of the receiving plate matches the shape of the groove and is located within the groove.

[0010] Furthermore, the top of the mold box has two oblong holes, and bolts pass through the receiving plate and the mold box in sequence to be fixedly connected to the nuts located in the oblong holes.

[0011] Furthermore, the molds are arranged at equal intervals and there are eight of them.

[0012] Furthermore, both the inner and outer baffles are arc-shaped baffles, and the centers of both coincide with the center of the output turntable.

[0013] Furthermore, the inner and outer baffles cover 3 / 8 of the circumference of the output turntable.

[0014] Furthermore, the mold box has a sliding surface perpendicular to its bottom edge on its front side along its rotation direction. This outward extension of the mold box facilitates more stable and reliable removal of the cigarette packs.

[0015] Furthermore, all edges of the mold box are chamfered at right angles. After the soldering iron enters the mold box to iron the side seal of the cigarette pack, as the soldering iron retracts, the turntable causes the mold box to start rotating. At this time, the soldering iron has not completely withdrawn from the mold box, and a collision may occur. The chamfer is to avoid the collision.

[0016] Beneficial effects:

[0017] This invention effectively solves the interference problem between the side-sealing and shaping device for small transparent paper packaging and the original mold box by designing the mold box shape into a unique shape resembling an isosceles trapezoid with the bottom edge facing outward. This allows the side-sealing and shaping device to smoothly enter the two mold boxes and contact the cigarette pack, fully utilizing its shaping function and ensuring the product's appearance quality. Multiple specially shaped mold boxes arranged around the upper surface of the output turntable, in conjunction with inner and outer baffles, effectively limit the movement trajectory of the mold boxes as they pass between the baffles during turntable operation, reducing mold box wobbling and displacement, making machine operation more stable, lowering the failure rate caused by unstable mechanical parts, and extending the equipment's service life. The YB517 small transparent paper packaging machine operates at high speeds, placing high demands on the equipment's stability and reliability. The new mold box design can adapt to the needs of high-speed production, ensuring good shaping effects and product quality even under high-speed operating conditions. Attached Figure Description

[0027] Example 1

[0028] A cigarette pack dispensing device, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the device includes an output turntable 1, and eight mold boxes 2 are arranged equidistantly around the upper surface of the output turntable 1, dividing the output turntable 1 into eight workstations. The shape of the mold boxes 2 is a roughly isosceles trapezoid, with the bottom edge facing outwards. The mold boxes are constructed using... Figure 1 The shape shown allows the space between the two mold boxes 2 to just fix and transport the cigarette pack.

[0029] An inner baffle 3 and an outer baffle 4 are provided on the outer edge of the output turntable 1. When the mold box 2 moves, it passes between the inner baffle 3 and the outer baffle 4. Both the inner baffle 3 and the outer baffle 4 are arc-shaped baffles, and the centers of both coincide with the center of the output turntable 1. The inner baffle 3 and the outer baffle 4 cover 3 / 8 of the circumference of the output turntable 1. Both the inner baffle 3 and the outer baffle 4 are provided with connecting plates, which connect to other devices on the production line. The connecting plates mainly serve a lifting function, so that there is a certain gap between the two baffles and the plane on the upper surface of the turntable. The other two baffles allow the cigarette packs to be conveyed to the carton packaging machine in the mold box along a fixed trajectory.

[0030] The mold box 2 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the output turntable 1 via a bracket 5. Specifically, the bracket 5 includes a fixing plate 501 and a receiving plate 502. The fixing plate 501 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the output turntable 1 by screws. The receiving plate 502 protrudes from the outer edge of the output turntable 1 and is fixedly connected to the mold box 2. The bottom of the mold box 2 is provided with a groove 6. The shape of the receiving plate 502 matches the shape of the groove 6 and is located within the groove 6, making the connection between the bracket 5 and the mold box 2 more secure. Two oblong holes 7 are opened at the top of the mold box 2. Bolts pass through the receiving plate and the mold box in sequence and are fixedly connected to nuts located in the oblong holes. The bracket 5 reinforces the connection between the mold box 2 and the output turntable 1 to ensure that it has a certain strength and will not easily deform when encountering deformed cigarette packs.

[0031] In addition, the mold box 2 has a movable surface 8 perpendicular to the bottom edge on its front side along its rotation direction, which extends the mold box outward and facilitates more stable and reliable removal of cigarette packs. All edges of the mold box are chamfered at right angles. After the soldering iron enters the mold box to iron the side seal of the cigarette pack, the turntable drives the mold box to rotate as the soldering iron retracts. At this time, the soldering iron has not completely withdrawn from the mold box, and a collision may occur. The chamfer is to avoid the collision.

[0032] Working and usage process:

[0033] like Figure 4 As shown, the output turntable 1 rotates counterclockwise, which in turn drives the eight mold boxes 2 to rotate counterclockwise as well. The cigarette packs transported by the conveyor belt enter between the two mold boxes at the entrance. As the output turntable 1 rotates counterclockwise, the two baffles allow the cigarette packs to move along a fixed trajectory in the mold boxes. After the cigarette packs move to the exit, the pushing device causes the cigarette packs to leave the position between the two mold boxes and be conveyed toward the carton packaging machine.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
