Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of finished cigarette pushing equipment, specifically, to a finished cigarette reversing pushing device. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional cigarette shipping involves first packaging cigarettes into cartons, then transporting those cartons to a freight car. To improve transport efficiency, automated conveyor systems are often installed. After scanning the barcodes, staff can automatically transport the cartons to the car. However, traditional automated conveyor systems have very fixed and limited applications. They are difficult to adjust their position and distance flexibly to suit different environments, making them unsuitable for confined spaces. Furthermore, manual intervention is usually required during transport for straightening and pushing.
[0003] For example, utility model patent CN222357252U discloses a cigarette sorting mechanism, including a main conveyor device. Several auxiliary conveyor devices are arranged along the conveying direction on both sides of the main conveyor belt. Each auxiliary conveyor device includes a first conveying component and a second conveying component. The second conveying component is connected to the main conveyor device. A cigarette release area is provided at the end of the first conveyor component away from the main conveyor device, and a blocking component is provided at the end of the second conveyor component closer to the main conveyor device. The blocking component includes a lifting plate and a first cylinder mounted on the main conveyor device for driving the lifting plate up or down. This cigarette sorting mechanism can control the corresponding cylinder to drive the lifting plate down according to the order content, allowing cigarettes of the corresponding type to enter the main conveyor device through the blocking mechanism for order consolidation, reducing labor and improving sorting efficiency. However, the disclosed solution still does not solve the problems of conveying direction changes in confined spaces and the need for manual intervention for straightening and pushing during the conveying process. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to achieve automatic detection of the position of the finished product smoke in a confined space and to push it in a different direction during the finished product smoke conveying process, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a finished product smoke changing direction pushing device, including a frame, a transverse conveying mechanism, a longitudinal pushing mechanism, an inlet detection device and an end point detection device;
[0005] The inlet detection device is located at one end of the frame and is used to detect the smoke from finished products at the inlet of the transverse conveyor mechanism and control the start and stop of the transverse conveyor mechanism.
[0006] The transverse conveying mechanism is arranged along the length of the frame and is used to transversely convey the finished cigarette pack.
[0007] The positioning detection device is located at the other end of the frame and is used to sense the finished product being conveyed by the transverse conveying mechanism and to control the start and stop of the longitudinal pushing mechanism.
[0008] The longitudinal pushing mechanism is arranged along the width direction of the frame and intersects with the transverse conveying mechanism to longitudinally push the finished cigarette pack.
[0009] Based on the above, in order to guide the finished product smoke at the entrance, prevent the finished product smoke from deviating, and ensure that the finished product smoke can be conveyed along the center of the transverse conveyor when it enters the transverse conveyor, a pair of guide guardrails are also provided on the frame. The guide guardrails are located at the entrance of the transverse conveyor and are used to guide the finished product smoke on the transverse conveyor.
[0010] Based on the above, in order to intercept the smoke from the conveyed finished products in a timely manner and allow the smoke to stop at the longitudinal pushing mechanism, an intercepting bar is also provided on the frame. The intercepting bar is set across the frame and located next to the longitudinal pushing mechanism to intercept the smoke from the conveyed finished products at the longitudinal pushing mechanism.
[0011] Based on the above, in order to achieve smooth conveying and facilitate the cross-setting of the longitudinal pushing mechanism and the transverse conveying mechanism to enable the turning and transportation of finished cigarettes in a confined space, the transverse conveying mechanism includes a roller motor and several rollers mounted on the frame. The roller motor is signal-connected to the inlet detection device. The several rollers are evenly arranged along the length of the frame, and the roller motor drives the several rollers to rotate.
[0012] Based on the above, in order to facilitate the longitudinal pushing mechanism to push the finished product smoke off the rollers and prevent the frame from blocking the finished product smoke, the tops of several of the rollers are all set higher than the upper surface of the frame.
[0013] Based on the above, in order to smoothly push the finished cigarette pack, the longitudinal pushing mechanism includes a slide motor, an electric slide, and a push plate;
[0014] The push plate is located above the roller and is perpendicular to the roller; a pair of connecting rods are provided at the bottom of the push plate, and the lower ends of the pair of connecting rods pass through the gap between adjacent rollers and are connected to the electric slide table.
[0015] The slide motor drives the electric slide to slide.
[0016] Based on the above, in order to ensure that the pusher plate can slide smoothly along the rollers when pushing the finished cigarette, the center line of the electric slide table is set parallel to the axis of the rollers, and the pusher plate is set perpendicular to the axis of the rollers.
[0017] Based on the above, in order to facilitate the adjustment of the level of several rollers and the level of the frame, the bottom of the frame is provided with support legs, and the bottom of the support legs is provided with feet.
[0018] Based on the above, in order to improve operational safety, motor protective covers are respectively provided on the outer side of the roller motor and the outer side of the slide motor.
[0019] This utility model has substantial features and progress compared to the prior art. Specifically, the finished product smoke reversing and pushing device provided by this utility model, by setting a transverse conveying mechanism, a longitudinal pushing mechanism, an inlet detection device and an end detection device on the frame respectively; and by intersecting the longitudinal pushing mechanism with the transverse conveying mechanism, the space required for the reversing and conveying of finished product smoke is shortened, which can ensure that the reversing and pushing of finished product smoke can be completed in a narrow scene.
[0020] Simultaneously, the inlet detection device can be used to sense the smoke from finished products and automatically control the start and stop of the transverse conveying mechanism; and the position detection device can be used to sense the smoke from finished products conveyed by the transverse conveying mechanism and control the start and stop of the longitudinal pushing mechanism, thereby realizing automatic sensing and automatic control of smoke from finished products in confined spaces.
[0021] Furthermore, by integrating the electric slide, push plate, roller, and roller motor onto a single frame and utilizing the electric slide for directional pushing, the frame size can be shortened, allowing for free combination and splicing according to actual usage scenarios to enable multi-directional pushing and thus adapting to the needs of applications in confined spaces.
[0022] Therefore, this finished cigarette pack reversing push device can automatically sense the position of the finished cigarette pack, automatically align it, and automatically reverse the direction of the cigarette pack after it is in place, reducing manual intervention. It can also be freely combined and spliced to perform multi-directional reversing push, adapting to the needs of narrow scene applications, thereby improving the flexibility and intelligence of the cigarette pack conveying and sorting system in the cigarette factory production workshop.

The several rollers 3 are evenly arranged along the length of the frame 2, and the roller motor 13 drives the several rollers 3 to rotate. Specifically, power is transmitted between adjacent rollers 13 via a belt.
[0033] To smoothly move the finished cigarette packs, the longitudinal moving mechanism includes a slide motor 7, an electric slide 12, and a push plate 6. The push plate 6 is located above and perpendicular to the roller 3. A pair of connecting rods are provided at the bottom of the push plate 6, and the lower ends of the pair of connecting rods pass through the gap between adjacent rollers 3 and connect to the electric slide 12. The slide motor 7 drives the electric slide 12 to slide.
[0034] Example 2
[0035] This embodiment provides a finished product smoke redirection and pushing device, the main difference from Embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment:
[0036] To guide the finished product smoke at the entrance, prevent it from deviating, and ensure that the finished product smoke is conveyed along the center of the transverse conveyor mechanism when it enters, a pair of guide guardrails 1 are also provided on the frame 2. The guide guardrails 1 are located at the entrance of the transverse conveyor mechanism and are used to guide the finished product smoke on the transverse conveyor mechanism.
[0037] Example 3
[0038] This embodiment provides a finished product smoke redirection and pushing device, the main difference from Embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment:
[0039] In order to intercept the smoke from the conveyed finished products in a timely manner and allow the smoke to stop at the longitudinal pushing mechanism, an intercepting rod 5 is also provided on the frame 2. The intercepting rod 5 is set across the frame 2 and located on one side of the longitudinal pushing mechanism, and is used to intercept the smoke from the conveyed finished products at the longitudinal pushing mechanism.
[0040] Example 4
[0041] This embodiment provides a finished product smoke reversing and pushing device. The main difference from embodiment 1 is that, in this embodiment, in order to facilitate the longitudinal pushing mechanism to push the finished product smoke off the roller 3 and prevent the frame from blocking the finished product smoke, the tops of several rollers 3 are all set higher than the upper surface of the frame 2.
[0042] Example 5
[0043] This embodiment provides a finished product smoke redirection and pushing device, the main difference from Embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment:
[0044] To ensure that the pusher plate can slide smoothly along the roller 3 when pushing the finished cigarette, the center line of the electric slide table 12 is set parallel to the axis of the rollers 3, and the pusher plate 6 is set perpendicular to the axis of the rollers 3.

[0049] Then, the positioning detection device 4 is used to detect whether the cigarette has reached the pushing position. If the positioning detection device 4 detects the cigarette, the slide motor 7 drives the electric slide 12 to work, and the pusher plate 6 moves forward to complete one pushing action. After being pushed to the set position, the pusher plate 6 linearly returns to the initial pushing position, and the returning direction of the pusher plate 6 is consistent with the axis of the roller 3.
[0050] Among them, the intercepting rod 5 is installed on the frame 2 to provide installation conditions for the positioning detection device 4.
