[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 3The cigarette posture adjusting device provided by the embodiment of the application comprises two groups of adjusting assemblies, the adjusting assembly comprises a driving member 100, a first synchronous wheel 210, a second synchronous wheel 230, a synchronous belt 220 and a connecting member 310, the first synchronous wheel 210 is arranged on the output shaft of the driving member 100, the output shaft is rotatable, the second synchronous wheel 230 is rotatably arranged on the connecting member 310, one end of the synchronous belt 220 is sleeved on the first synchronous wheel 210, and the other end of the synchronous belt 220 is sleeved on the second synchronous wheel 230, wherein the synchronous belts 220 of the two groups of adjusting assemblies are collinear, and the rotation directions of the two synchronous belts 220 are opposite.
[0033] Specifically, the output shaft of the driving member 100 is arranged in parallel with the connecting member 310, and the end of the connecting member 310 is flush with the end of the output shaft, the first synchronous wheel 210 is arranged on the end of the output shaft, and the second synchronous wheel 230 is rotatably arranged on the end of the connecting member 310, so that the distance between the output shaft and the connecting member 310 is just enough to make the synchronous belt 220 be tensioned or not completely tensioned, so that the synchronous belt 220 has a certain tensioning force and deformation force, and can play a certain buffering role when adjusting the cigarettes.
[0034] In addition, the second synchronous wheel 230 is rotatably arranged on the connecting member 310, which can reduce the vibration when the synchronous belt 220 rotates.
[0035] Specifically, when used in a cigarette sorting line, the cigarette posture adjusting device is placed at the connection position of the conveying lines with different height differences, the arrangement direction of the synchronous belt 220 is perpendicular to the conveying lines, and the synchronous belt 220 extends to the conveying line close to the higher conveying position, so that the synchronous belt 220 can rotate circularly through the cooperation of the driving member 100, the first synchronous wheel 210, the second synchronous wheel 230 and the connecting member 310.
[0036] When the conveying line continuously and uninterruptedly conveys the cigarettes, the cigarettes with a conveying direction that is not perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying belt or has a large inclination angle are adjusted in posture by the synchronous belt 220 when contacting the synchronous belt 220, and the specific adjustment process is that the synchronous belt 220 drives the inclined end of the cigarette through the friction generated by the rotation of the synchronous belt 220, so that the cigarette is close to perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying belt or has a small inclination angle, and then the adjusted cigarette falls to another conveying line, facilitating the subsequent detection of the gate.
[0037] The two groups of adjusting assemblies are arranged, and the rotation directions of the synchronous belts 220 of the two groups of adjusting assemblies are opposite, so that the cigarettes with different inclination directions can be corrected, the posture correction efficiency of the cigarettes is higher, and the situation that the cigarettes are stuck at the connection position of the conveying lines is avoided.
[0038] Specifically, the rotation direction of the synchronous belt 220 of one set of adjustment assemblies towards the side of the higher conveying position is towards one side of the conveying line, and the rotation direction of the synchronous belt 220 of the other set of adjustment assemblies towards the side of the higher conveying position is towards the other side of the conveying line, so that the cigarette can be adjusted to be close to perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying belt or have a small inclination angle at the fastest speed regardless of which side the cigarette is towards.
[0039] In some embodiments, the synchronous belt 220 is provided with protrusions or protruding strips on the side for contacting the material. The protrusions or protruding strips can increase the friction with the cigarette, so that the adjustment of the cigarette is more rapid.
[0040] In some specific embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 The second synchronous wheel 230 is rotatably arranged on the connecting member 310 through a bearing 340. The bearing 340 makes the rotation of the second synchronous wheel 230 more smooth.
[0041] In specific embodiments, as shown in Figure 6 The bearing 340 includes a rotating part 341 and a fixed part 342. The second synchronous wheel 230 is fixed to the rotating part 341, and the fixed part 342 is connected to the connecting member 310 through screw threads. The rotating part 341 is a column, and the outer surface of the rotating part 341 is provided with screw threads. The end of the connecting member 310 is provided with a screw hole for the screw threads of the rotating part 341, and the rotating part 341 is used for mounting the second synchronous wheel 230.
[0042] In some embodiments, the driving member 100 is a motor, and the extension length of the output shaft of the motor is set to 80-120 mm. The motor is selected to be a DC motor with a speed of 300-400 rps. If the speed of the motor is too high, the cigarette package will be damaged during the high-speed rotation of the synchronous belt 220, and the high-speed deflection of the cigarette will also cause secondary problems. The extension length of the output shaft of the motor is set to 80-120 mm, so that when the cigarette posture adjusting device is installed on the conveying line, the remaining parts except the synchronous belt 220 have a large installation space and do not interfere with the cigarette.

[0047] wherein, Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of the connection of the connecting member 310, the first fixing member 420 and the third fixing member 440.
[0048] In some embodiments, the first connecting part 421 and the second connecting part 422 are further provided with the reinforcing part 423, and the reinforcing part 423 is configured to make the structure of the first fixing member 420 more stable.
[0049] In use, the mounting member 410 is parallel to the conveying surface of the conveying line, and the cooperation of the first fixing member 420 with the second fixing member 430 or the third fixing member 440 makes the driving member 100 and the connecting member 310 present a certain inclination, thereby further ensuring that the driving member 100 or other components will not interfere with the conveying of the cigarettes.
[0050] In the embodiments of the present application, the included angle between the first connecting part 421 and the second connecting part 422 is set to 135°.

[0054] In some embodiments, the connecting member 310 is a shaft member, and the connecting member 310 is arranged on the third fixed member 440 through a rotating seat 320. The rotating seat 320 is internally provided with a bearing, and the connecting member 310 is inserted into the bearing and clamped by a limiting member to prevent axial displacement. The rotating seat 320 enables the connecting member 310 to rotate, and the second synchronous wheel 230 is arranged on the connecting member 310 through the bearing 340, which can greatly reduce the concentricity deviation during rotation of the shaft and effectively reduce the vibration during rotation of the shaft, thereby avoiding the shaking of the belt.

[0056] It should be noted that the combined length of the two synchronous belts 220 is greater than the width of the conveying line, so as to cover the conveying surface of the conveying line and ensure that each cigarette can be adjusted. The distance between the synchronous belt 220 and the first conveying line is greater than the width of the cigarette by 0.5-1.5 cm, so that the cigarette can be adjusted without affecting the falling of the cigarette to the second conveying line.
[0057] The above describes the embodiments of the application in detail in combination with the drawings, but the application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the purpose of the application.
