Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] In the cigarette manufacturing process, the finished cigarettes need to be packaged using packaging machines. In the production process of the ZB48A packaging machine, the cigarettes are processed by the turret mechanism of the YB518 small pack packaging machine to complete the folding of the cellophane wrapping paper. After the folded cigarette packs undergo a cellophane wrapping and heat sealing process, they are conveyed to downstream machines for further processing via a dedicated cigarette pack conveyor. The existing YB518 small pack packaging machine uses a cigarette pack conveyor where the pusher is typically glued to the conveyor belt. In actual production, the rubber pusher is not durable enough and is prone to wear. If the pusher wears out, the entire conveyor belt needs to be replaced, which not only reduces production efficiency but also increases production and maintenance costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cigarette pack conveying device that can improve production efficiency and reduce production and maintenance costs.

[0004] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0035] Combination Figures 1 to 3As shown, the cigarette pack conveying device provided in this embodiment can improve production efficiency and reduce production and maintenance costs. Specifically, the cigarette pack conveying device includes a toothed conveyor belt 100 and a pusher mechanism 200: the inner side of the toothed conveyor belt 100 is provided with a plurality of mounting grooves 110 at intervals along its conveying direction; the pusher mechanism 200 includes a plurality of pusher bodies 210 and a plurality of connecting components 220, the plurality of pusher bodies 210 being detachably connected to the outer side of the toothed conveyor belt 100 in a one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of mounting grooves 110 through the connecting components 220.

[0036] Since the pusher body 210 is detachably connected to the toothed conveyor belt 100 via the corresponding connecting assembly 220, during production, when the pusher body 210 becomes worn, only the worn pusher body 210 needs to be removed and replaced with a new one, without needing to replace the entire tobacco pack conveying device. Therefore, on the one hand, the replacement and maintenance time of the tobacco pack conveying device can be shortened, thereby improving overall production efficiency; on the other hand, after maintenance, the toothed conveyor belt 100 and other unworn pusher bodies 210 can still be used, thereby reducing production and maintenance costs.

[0037] In this embodiment, the connection component 220 is provided with two methods: screw connection and snap connection. The appropriate method can be selected based on actual production needs, as detailed below:

[0038] Example 1

[0039] Preferably, each connecting component 220 includes a connecting bolt 221, the mounting groove 110 is provided with a mounting through hole 111, and each pusher body 210 is provided with a threaded connection hole; the first end of the connecting bolt 221 extends out of the outside of the toothed conveyor belt 100 through the corresponding mounting through hole 111, and is connected to the pusher body 210 through the corresponding threaded connection hole.

[0040] When the pusher body 210 needs to be installed, the first end of the connecting bolt 221 passes through the corresponding mounting through hole 111 and connects with the corresponding threaded connection hole and is tightened, thereby connecting the pusher body 210 to the toothed conveyor belt 100. When the worn pusher body 210 needs to be replaced, simply remove the connecting bolt 221. The whole process is simple and convenient, which can improve the convenience of disassembly and installation and improve the overall maintenance efficiency.

[0041] Preferably, the connecting component 220 further includes an auxiliary component 222, which is disposed on the pusher body 210 and has a threaded connection hole disposed on the auxiliary component 222.

[0042] Since the rake body 210 is usually made of rubber, the auxiliary part 222 is set on the rake body 210 and a threaded connection hole is opened on the auxiliary part 222. On the one hand, the strength of the rake body 210 itself can be improved, and on the other hand, the connection strength and connection stability between the rake body 210 and the connecting bolt 221 can be improved.

[0043] Preferably, the auxiliary component 222 is rod-shaped, and the axis of the auxiliary component 222 is set at an angle to the axis of the connecting bolt 221.

[0044] In this embodiment, the auxiliary component 222 is disposed inside the rake body 210, and the axis of the auxiliary component 222 is perpendicular to the axis of the connecting bolt 221. The bottom wall of the rake body 210 is provided with a clearance hole corresponding to the threaded connection hole. The first end of the connecting bolt 221 passes through the mounting through hole 111 and the clearance hole and is screwed into the threaded connection hole. This further enhances the strength of the rake body 210 itself, as well as the connection strength and stability between the rake body 210 and the connecting bolt 221.

[0045] In some other embodiments, the angle between the axis of the auxiliary component 222 and the axis of the connecting bolt 221 can be set according to the actual situation; or, the auxiliary component 222 can be set on the bottom wall or side wall of the pusher body 210 according to actual needs; or, the auxiliary component 222 can be set as a plate, block, sphere, ellipsoid, etc. according to actual needs, which will not be elaborated here.

[0046] Preferably, the connecting assembly 220 further includes an auxiliary pad 223, which is fitted onto the connecting bolt 221 through an auxiliary hole and is located within the mounting groove 110.

[0047] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, by setting an auxiliary pad 223, the contact area between the screw head of the connecting bolt 221 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110 is increased, thereby reducing the probability of damage caused by the contact between the screw head of the connecting bolt 221 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110, and thus extending the service life of the pusher body 210 and the toothed conveyor belt 100.

[0048] To further enhance the connection strength and stability of the pusher body 210 after the toothed conveyor belt 100, a plurality of mounting through holes 111 are provided at intervals along the direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the toothed conveyor belt 100. Connecting bolts 221 and threaded connection holes are correspondingly provided with the mounting through holes 111. The number of mounting through holes 111 is adaptively set according to actual needs. In this embodiment, two mounting through holes 111 are provided at intervals within the mounting groove 110, and the two mounting through holes 111 are symmetrically arranged about the centerline of the toothed conveyor belt 100 in the conveying direction. Correspondingly, two connecting bolts 221 and two threaded connection holes are provided. The two threaded connection holes can be provided on the same auxiliary component 222, or separately on two auxiliary components 222, and both auxiliary components 222 are provided with threaded connection holes.

[0049] Another embodiment of the screw connection is that each connecting component 220 includes a connecting screw and a fastening nut, and the mounting groove 110 is provided with a mounting through hole 111; the first end of the connecting screw is fixedly connected to the push rake body 210, the second end of the connecting screw is inserted into the corresponding mounting through hole 111, and the fastening nut is screwed to the second end of the connecting screw and abuts against the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110.

[0050] When installing the rake body 210, the second end of the connecting screw extends through the mounting through hole 111 into the inner side of the toothed conveyor belt 100. Then, the fastening nut is screwed onto the second end of the connecting screw and tightened until it abuts against the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110, ensuring the connection strength and stability of the rake body 210. When replacing a worn rake body 210, simply remove the fastening nut from the second end of the connecting screw. To further improve the connection strength and stability of the rake body 210, the rake body 210 is provided with multiple connecting screws, and correspondingly, the mounting groove 110 is provided with multiple mounting through holes 111. Alternatively, a washer can be provided at the second end of the connecting screw, with the washer positioned between the fastening nut and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110 after the rake body 210 is installed.

[0051] Example 2

[0052] Preferably, each connecting component 220 includes a connecting slot (not shown in the figure) and a connecting rail (not shown in the figure). The connecting slot is disposed on the outside of the toothed conveyor belt 100 corresponding to the mounting slot 110 and extends in a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the toothed conveyor belt 100. The connecting rail is disposed on the pusher body 210 and is engaged with the connecting slot.

[0053] Specifically, the pusher body 210 can be installed on the toothed conveyor belt 100 by engaging the connecting rail with the connecting slot. When the pusher body 210 is worn and needs to be replaced, the connecting rail can be disengaged from the corresponding connecting slot.

[0054] In other embodiments, the inner wall of the connecting slot is provided with an elastic snap-fit ​​element, and the side wall of the connecting rail is correspondingly provided with a connecting slot. When the connecting rail is engaged with the connecting slot, the elastic snap-fit ​​element engages with the connecting slot, thus preventing the connecting rail from detaching from the connecting slot on its own and ensuring the stability of the connecting rail after it is engaged with the connecting slot. The number of elastic snap-fit ​​elements can be adaptively set according to actual conditions, and is not specifically limited here.

[0055] To prevent the connecting rail from disengaging from the connecting groove in the depth direction, in this embodiment, the width of the connecting groove gradually decreases from the bottom to the opening, and the connecting rail is correspondingly positioned to the connecting groove. That is, along the direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the toothed conveyor belt 100, the cross-sectional shape of the connecting groove can be set as trapezoidal, dovetail, "⊥" shaped, etc., depending on the actual situation, and is not specifically limited here.

[0056] To further enhance the connection strength and stability of the pusher body 210 after it is engaged with the toothed conveyor belt 100, thereby ensuring the effectiveness of the cigarette pack conveying device, in this embodiment, multiple connecting slots are provided at intervals along the conveying direction of the toothed conveyor belt 100, corresponding to the same mounting groove 110. The number and position of the connecting slots correspond to the number of connecting rails. The number of connecting slots can be increased or decreased according to actual production needs, and no specific limit is made here.

[0057] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
