Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tobacco processing technology, specifically relating to a conveying device for cutting tobacco stems into shreds. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, some cigarette manufacturers require that tobacco stems be processed into stems that are similar in shape to leaves in order to improve the uniformity of tobacco blending, enhance cigarette quality and the utilization rate of tobacco stem raw materials, and increase the use of stems in high-end cigarettes.

[0003] However, for a long time, the tobacco stem processing technology in tobacco processing lines has generally involved feeding the processed tobacco stems directly into a shredder through a vibrating trough or other equipment for shredding.

[0004] There are two states of tobacco stems during the shredding process: one is a natural pile-up with a messy arrangement, and the other is a straightened arrangement, but the length of the tobacco stems is perpendicular to the shredding direction of the shredding machine blade. After shredding by these two methods, the shape of the stem shreds and leaf shreds are quite different, and most of them are in the form of flakes, which affects the uniformity of tobacco blending and the quality of cigarettes, and limits the use of tobacco stems in cigarettes, especially high-end cigarettes. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a conveying device for shredding tobacco stems. Through the cooperation of a strip groove, a reciprocating cloth belt, and a limiting grid, the tobacco stems are combed so that they are perpendicular to the cutting direction of the shredder before entering it. The reciprocating cloth belt is used to distribute the tobacco stems evenly, preventing them from piling up on the conveyor belt and improving the uniformity of tobacco blending and cigarette quality.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A conveying device for shredding tobacco stems, comprising:

[0008] A vibrating conveyor, comprising a conveying plate, wherein a plurality of parallel strip grooves are provided at the end of the conveying direction of the conveying plate;

[0009] A reciprocating fabric belt is installed at the end of the conveyor plate in the conveying direction and below the strip groove. The length direction of the conveyor plate is the same as the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt.

[0010] A limiting grid is installed at the end of the reciprocating fabric belt in the conveying direction and is located below the reciprocating fabric belt;

[0011] The limiting grid includes several vertically arranged and parallel partitions, with a gap between two adjacent partitions, the length direction of which is parallel to the length direction of the strip groove.

[0012] The conveyor belt used to connect the shredder has a conveying direction perpendicular to the length direction of the trough.

[0013] The conveyor belt is perpendicular to the cutting direction of the shredder.

[0014] Furthermore, the length direction of the groove is the same as the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt;

[0015] The conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the transmission belt.

[0016] This structural design, by setting the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt perpendicular to the conveyor belt, can reduce the overall length of the conveying device.

[0017] Furthermore, the length direction of the groove is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt;

[0018] The conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt is the same as that of the transmission belt.

[0019] This structural design, by setting the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt parallel to the conveyor belt, can reduce the width and length of the conveying device.

[0020] Furthermore, a leveling mechanism is provided above the transmission belt;

[0021] The leveling mechanism is inclined from top to bottom towards the direction of the shredder.

[0022] This structural design, through a leveling mechanism located above the conveyor belt and inclined, levels the tobacco stems on the conveyor belt, ensuring the overall height of the tobacco stems entering the shredder, making it highly practical.

[0023] Further specifying, the leveling mechanism is a pressure belt, and the pressure belt is synchronously connected to the transmission belt.

[0024] This structural design uses a pressing belt that rotates synchronously with the conveyor belt as a leveling mechanism to level the tobacco stems located on the conveyor belt. This can improve the throughput of tobacco stems and avoid the problem of tobacco stem accumulation caused by relative movement between the tobacco stems and the leveling mechanism.

[0025] Furthermore, the upper surfaces of several of the partitions are on the same horizontal plane;

[0026] The length of some of the partitions in the vertical direction gradually decreases along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt.

[0027] This structural design, by limiting the length of the partition in the vertical direction, can reduce the distance the tobacco stems fall after falling from the limiting grid. While ensuring that the tobacco stems on the conveyor belt are not blocked by the partition, it avoids the problem of the tobacco stems being rearranged due to falling too high.

[0028] Specifically, the lower end of the limiting grid is set in a stepped shape. When the tobacco stems fall from the limiting grid, the tobacco stems located at the end away from the shredder fall directly onto the conveyor belt. As the conveyor belt moves forward, the subsequent tobacco stems gradually cover the tobacco stems of the previous layer, so that the tobacco stems on the conveyor belt at the end away from the shredder are in a sloping shape, and the stepped shape of the lower end of the limiting grid matches this slope.

[0029] The utility model adopting the above technical solution has the following advantages:

[0030] The tobacco stems are combed by the interplay of strip grooves, reciprocating fabric belts, and limiting grids, ensuring that the stems are perpendicular to the cutting direction of the shredder before entering it. The reciprocating fabric belts distribute the stems evenly, preventing them from piling up on the conveyor belt and improving the uniformity of tobacco blending and cigarette quality.

Example 1

[0041] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the present invention provides a conveying device for shredding tobacco stems, comprising:

[0042] Vibrating conveyor 1, the vibrating conveyor 1 includes a conveying plate 11, and a plurality of parallel strip grooves 12 are opened at the end of the conveying direction of the conveying plate 11.

[0043] The reciprocating fabric belt 2 is installed at the end of the conveying direction of the conveying plate 11 and is located below the strip groove 12. The length direction of the conveying plate 11 is the same as the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt 2.

[0044] The limiting grid 3 is installed at the end of the reciprocating fabric belt 2 in the conveying direction and is located below the reciprocating fabric belt 2.

[0045] The limiting grille 3 includes several vertically arranged and parallel partitions, with a gap between two adjacent partitions. The length direction of the gap is parallel to the length direction of the strip groove 12.

[0046] The conveyor belt 41 used to connect the shredder has a conveying direction perpendicular to the length direction of the strip groove 12.

[0047] The conveying direction of the conveyor belt 41 is perpendicular to the cutting direction of the shredder.

[0048] The length direction of the trough 12 is the same as the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt 2;

[0049] The conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt 2 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the transmission belt 41.

[0050] By setting the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt 2 perpendicular to the conveying direction of the transmission belt 41, the overall length of the conveying device can be reduced.

[0051] A leveling mechanism 42 is provided above the transmission belt 41;

[0052] The leveling mechanism 42 tilts from top to bottom toward the direction of the shredder.

[0053] The leveling mechanism 42, located above the conveyor belt 41 and inclined, levels the tobacco stems on the conveyor belt 41, ensuring the overall height of the tobacco stems entering the shredder, which is highly practical.

[0054] The leveling mechanism 42 is a pressure belt, which is synchronously connected to the transmission belt 41.

[0055] In practice, depending on the actual situation, a fixed inclined baffle plate can be selected as the leveling mechanism 42 to scrape the tobacco stems on the conveyor belt 41 to ensure the overall height of the tobacco stems entering the shredder. In this embodiment, the pressing belt that rotates synchronously with the conveyor belt 41 is used as the leveling mechanism 42 to level the tobacco stems on the conveyor belt 41, which can improve the tobacco stem throughput and avoid the problem of tobacco stem accumulation caused by relative movement between the tobacco stems and the leveling mechanism 42.

[0056] The upper surfaces of several partitions are on the same horizontal plane;

[0057] The length of several partitions in the vertical direction gradually decreases along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 41.

[0058] In fact, depending on the actual situation, the lower end of the limiting grid 3 can be set to a horizontal shape. In this embodiment, by limiting the length of the partition in the vertical direction, the falling distance of the tobacco stem after falling from the limiting grid 3 can be reduced. While ensuring that the tobacco stem on the conveyor belt 41 is not blocked by the partition, the problem of the tobacco stem being rearranged due to falling too high is avoided.

[0059] Specifically, the lower end of the limiting grid 3 is set in a stepped shape. When the tobacco stems fall from the limiting grid 3, the tobacco stems located at the end away from the shredder fall directly onto the conveyor belt 41. As the conveyor belt 41 moves forward, the subsequent tobacco stems gradually cover the tobacco stems of the previous layer, so that the tobacco stems on the conveyor belt 41 are sloped at the end away from the shredder, and the stepped shape of the lower end of the limiting grid 3 matches this slope.

[0060] In this embodiment, during use, the tobacco stems are conveyed forward on the conveyor plate 11 of the vibrating conveyor 1. When the tobacco stems are located on the strip groove 12, the tobacco stems with the same length direction as the strip groove 12 fall from the strip groove 12 onto the reciprocating fabric belt 2. At this time, the length direction of the tobacco stems is the same as the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt 2.

[0061] The reciprocating fabric belt 2 transports the tobacco stems to the limiting grid 3. After being combed twice by the limiting grid 3, the tobacco stems fall onto the transmission belt 41 and are then driven by the transmission belt 41 to move towards the shredder. During this process, the leveling mechanism 42, which is a pressing belt that rotates synchronously with the transmission belt 41, levels the tobacco stems on the transmission belt 41 until the tobacco stems are transported to the shredder and cut by the blades of the shredder. Example 2

[0062] like Figure 3 As shown, the present invention provides a conveying device for shredding tobacco stems, comprising:

[0063] Vibrating conveyor 1, the vibrating conveyor 1 includes a conveying plate 11, and a plurality of parallel strip grooves 12 are opened at the end of the conveying direction of the conveying plate 11.

[0064] The reciprocating fabric belt 2 is installed at the end of the conveying direction of the conveying plate 11 and is located below the strip groove 12. The length direction of the conveying plate 11 is the same as the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt 2.

[0065] The limiting grid 3 is installed at the end of the reciprocating fabric belt 2 in the conveying direction and is located below the reciprocating fabric belt 2.

[0066] The limiting grille 3 includes several vertically arranged and parallel partitions, with a gap between two adjacent partitions. The length direction of the gap is parallel to the length direction of the strip groove 12.

[0067] The conveyor belt 41 used to connect the shredder has a conveying direction perpendicular to the length direction of the strip groove 12.

[0068] The conveying direction of the conveyor belt 41 is perpendicular to the cutting direction of the shredder.

[0069] The length direction of the trough 12 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt 2;

[0070] The conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt 2 is the same as that of the transmission belt 41.

[0071] By setting the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt 2 parallel to the conveying direction of the transmission belt 41, the width and length of the conveying device can be reduced.

[0072] A leveling mechanism 42 is provided above the transmission belt 41;

[0073] The leveling mechanism 42 tilts from top to bottom toward the direction of the shredder.

[0074] The leveling mechanism 42, located above the conveyor belt 41 and inclined, levels the tobacco stems on the conveyor belt 41, ensuring the overall height of the tobacco stems entering the shredder, which is highly practical.

[0075] The leveling mechanism 42 is a pressure belt, which is synchronously connected to the transmission belt 41.

[0076] In practice, depending on the actual situation, a fixed inclined baffle plate can be selected as the leveling mechanism 42 to scrape the tobacco stems on the conveyor belt 41 to ensure the overall height of the tobacco stems entering the shredder. In this embodiment, the pressing belt that rotates synchronously with the conveyor belt 41 is used as the leveling mechanism 42 to level the tobacco stems on the conveyor belt 41, which can improve the tobacco stem throughput and avoid the problem of tobacco stem accumulation caused by relative movement between the tobacco stems and the leveling mechanism 42.

[0077] The upper surfaces of several partitions are on the same horizontal plane;

[0078] The length of several partitions in the vertical direction gradually decreases along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 41.

[0079] In fact, depending on the actual situation, the lower end of the limiting grid 3 can be set to a horizontal shape. In this embodiment, by limiting the length of the partition in the vertical direction, the falling distance of the tobacco stem after falling from the limiting grid 3 can be reduced. While ensuring that the tobacco stem on the conveyor belt 41 is not blocked by the partition, the problem of the tobacco stem being rearranged due to falling too high is avoided.

[0080] Specifically, the lower end of the limiting grid 3 is set in a stepped shape. When the tobacco stems fall from the limiting grid 3, the tobacco stems located at the end away from the shredder fall directly onto the conveyor belt 41. As the conveyor belt 41 moves forward, the subsequent tobacco stems gradually cover the tobacco stems of the previous layer, so that the tobacco stems on the conveyor belt 41 are sloped at the end away from the shredder, and the stepped shape of the lower end of the limiting grid 3 matches this slope.

[0081] In this embodiment, during use, the tobacco stems are conveyed forward on the conveyor plate 11 of the vibrating conveyor 1. When the tobacco stems are located on the strip groove 12, the tobacco stems with the same length direction as the strip groove 12 fall from the strip groove 12 onto the reciprocating fabric belt 2. At this time, the length direction of the tobacco stems is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the reciprocating fabric belt 2.

[0082] The reciprocating fabric belt 2 transports the tobacco stems to the limiting grid 3. After being combed twice by the limiting grid 3, the tobacco stems fall onto the transmission belt 41 and are then driven by the transmission belt 41 to move towards the shredder. During this process, the leveling mechanism 42, which is a pressing belt that rotates synchronously with the transmission belt 41, levels the tobacco stems on the transmission belt 41 until the tobacco stems are transported to the shredder and cut by the blades of the shredder.
