[0044] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0045] 1. In this utility model, the cigarette cartons produced by each cigarette packing machine enter the same channel of the sealing machine, which facilitates the quality traceability of cigarette products. At the same time, by setting more input lines for the sealing machine than for the cigarette cartons, it can be ensured that if any channel of the sealing machine is damaged, the cigarette cartons can be switched to other channels in a timely manner, ensuring the stable operation of the cigarette packing and sealing work. This solves the problem that the configuration of the existing cigarette packing and sealing machines in the cigarette packing workshop is unreasonable, which prevents the cigarette packing and sealing machines in the cigarette packing workshop from achieving the goal of maximizing the production balance.

[0046] 2. In this utility model, the cigarette products produced by each cigarette packing machine enter the same conveyor line channel of the sealing machine. When producing different specifications of cigarette products in the workshop, the same cigarette conveyor line and sealing machine can meet the production needs without the need to replan or rebuild other production lines, so as to maximize the utilization of the cigarette packing workshop.

[0047] 3. In this utility model, the sliding opening on the cigarette conveyor line corresponding to the upper A zone is not at the same projection position as the sliding opening on the cigarette conveyor line corresponding to the lower B zone, and the sliding opening on the cigarette conveyor line corresponding to the upper C zone is not at the same projection position as the sliding opening on the cigarette conveyor line corresponding to the lower B zone. This is to prevent interference caused by the cigarettes conveyed on the cigarette conveyor line in A zone falling at the same time as the cigarettes conveyed on the cigarette conveyor line in B zone, or the cigarettes conveyed on the cigarette conveyor line in C zone falling at the same time as the cigarettes conveyor line in D zone.

Detailed Implementation

[0056] like Figure 1-6 As shown, to make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0057] Example

[0058] The configuration of equipment in the cigarette factory's packaging workshop should meet production capacity requirements while matching the efficiency of equipment in each process link as much as possible, and ensuring that the cycle time of each process link in the entire workshop is as similar as possible, so as to maximize the production balance rate. However, the configuration of packaging equipment and carton sealing machine equipment in the existing cigarette factory packaging workshop is not very reasonable.

[0059] Therefore, this application proposes a configuration system for packaging and box-sealing equipment to solve the problem that the configuration of packaging and box-sealing equipment in existing packaging workshops is unreasonable, resulting in the inability to maximize the production balance rate.

[0060] For details, please refer to Figure 1-5The system includes a cigarette rolling machine 5, a cigarette packing conveyor line, and a box-sealing machine 10.

[0071] Sections C3 and D4 are the lower half of the area, which is equipped with four carton sealing machines. These four machines work together to seal the cigarettes delivered from the cigarette conveyor line 6 in sections C3 and D4.

[0072] The above describes the configuration system of the roll packaging equipment and carton sealing machine proposed in this application. The following describes the configuration method of the roll packaging equipment and carton sealing machine proposed in this application.

[0073] For details, please refer to Figure 6 The configuration method for roll packaging equipment and carton sealing machine equipment includes the following steps:

[0074] Step 1: Based on the production capacity requirements of the packaging workshop, configure packaging machines and box-sealing machines within the workshop, as detailed below:

[0075] Based on the production capacity requirements of the packaging workshop, 34 packaging machines and 8 box sealing machines are configured in the workshop. The 8 box sealing machines are numbered as follows: Box Sealing Machine No. 1, Box Sealing Machine No. 2, Box Sealing Machine No. 3, Box Sealing Machine No. 4, Box Sealing Machine No. 5, Box Sealing Machine No. 6, Box Sealing Machine No. 7, and Box Sealing Machine No. 8.

[0076] Step 2: Based on the management needs of the packaging workshop, divide the packaging machines within the workshop into zones. Then, based on the zones of the packaging machines, divide the box-sealing machines into corresponding zones, as follows:

[0077] The packaging workshop is first divided into four areas: A, B, C, and D. These areas are arranged in rows within the packaging workshop.

[0078] Then, configure 8 wrapping machines in the divided area A, 9 wrapping machines in the divided area B, 9 wrapping machines in the divided area C, and 8 wrapping machines in the divided area D.

[0079] After the wrapping machines are set up in the divided areas A, B, C and D, packing machines numbered 1, 2, 3 and 4 are set up in areas A and B, and packing machines numbered 5, 6, 7 and 8 are set up in areas C and D.

[0080] Step 3: Configure the cigarette pack conveyor line for the cigarette rolling machine, divide the area within the cigarette rolling workshop into zones, and then assign the cigarette pack conveyor line within each zone to the respective carton sealing machine, as detailed below:

[0081] Configure one cigarette conveyor line for each of the 8 cigarette rolling machines in Zone A, one cigarette conveyor line for each of the 9 cigarette rolling machines in Zone B, one cigarette conveyor line for each of the 9 cigarette rolling machines in Zone C, and one cigarette conveyor line for each of the 8 cigarette rolling machines in Zone D.

[0082] After the cigarette packing machines in Zones A, B, C, and D are equipped with cigarette packing lines, Zones A and B are divided into the upper half of the zone. The upper half is equipped with boxing and sealing machines numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4. The four boxing and sealing machines are used to pack and seal the cigarette packs produced by the eight cigarette packing machines in Zone A and the nine cigarette packing machines in Zone B.

[0083] Then, areas C and D are divided into the lower half, and box-sealing machines numbered 5, 6, 7 and 8 are configured for the lower half. Among them, the four box-sealing machines are used to box and seal the cigarettes produced by the nine cigarette-making machines in area C and the eight cigarette-making machines in area D.

[0084] Step 4: Based on the production capacity requirements of the packaging workshop, adjust the production parameters of the packaging equipment and the case sealing machine to achieve a match between the two, as detailed below:

[0085] Based on the production capacity requirements of the packaging workshop, the total production speed of the 8 packaging machines in Area A is adjusted to 600 packages / min and the total production speed of the 9 packaging machines in Area B is adjusted to 500 packages / min. At the same time, the total sealing speed of the 4 box sealing machines configured in Areas A and B is adjusted to 28 pieces / min.

[0086] After adjusting the total production speed of the wrapping machines and the box-sealing machines in areas A and B, adjust the total production speed of the 9 wrapping machines in area C to 500 packages / min and the total production speed of the 8 wrapping machines in area D to 500 packages / min.

[0087] Step 5: During the matching of the operating cycles of the wrapping machine and the case sealing machine, adjust the correspondence between the wrapping machines and case sealing machines in each zone according to the operation, shutdown, and maintenance status of the case sealing machine, as follows:

[0088] During the matching of the operating cycle of the wrapping machine and the box sealing machine, if any one of the four box sealing machines configured in Area A and Area B fails, the total production speed of the eight wrapping machines in Area A and the eight wrapping machines in Area B will be less than the total box sealing machine speed of the other three box sealing machines configured in Area A and Area B.

[0089] If any one of the four carton sealing machines configured in areas C and D malfunctions, the total production speed per minute of the nine roll-packing machines in area C and the eight roll-packing machines in area B will be less than the total carton sealing machine speed per minute of the remaining three carton sealing machines configured in areas A and B.

[0090] Step 6: During the matching of the operating cycle of the cigarette rolling machine and the carton sealing machine, adjust the connection between the cigarettes on the cigarette conveyor line configured for each area of ​​the cigarette rolling machine and the input line of the carton sealing machine, ensuring that the cigarettes on the cigarette conveyor line of each area fall into different carton sealing machines, as follows:

[0091] During the matching of the operating rhythm of the cigarette packing machine and the box packing machine, when the cigarettes on the corresponding cigarette conveyor in Zone A and Zone B fall onto the box packing machine input line of the corresponding box packing machine in Zone A and Zone B, if the cigarettes on the cigarette conveyor in Zone A fall onto box packing machine No. 1, then the cigarettes on the cigarette conveyor in Zone B will fall onto any one of box packing machines No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4.

[0092] When the cigarettes on the corresponding cigarette conveyor channels in Zone C and Zone D fall onto the boxing machine input lines of the corresponding boxing machines in Zone C and Zone D, if the cigarettes on the cigarette conveyor channel in Zone C fall onto boxing machine number 4, then the cigarettes on the cigarette conveyor channel in Zone D will fall onto any one of the boxing machines numbered 5, 6, or 7.

[0093] In this application, each cigarette pack produced by a cigarette rolling machine enters the same channel of the sealing machine, facilitating quality traceability of the cigarette products. At the same time, by setting more input lines for the sealing machine than for the cigarette pack conveyor lines, it can be ensured that if any channel of the sealing machine is damaged, the cigarette packs can be switched to other channels in a timely manner, ensuring the stable operation of the cigarette pack sealing process. This solves the problem that the current configuration of rolling and sealing equipment in the cigarette rolling workshop is unreasonable, resulting in the inability to maximize the production balance of the rolling and sealing equipment in the workshop.

[0094] In this application, the cigarette cartons produced by each cigarette packaging machine enter the same conveyor line channel of the sealing machine. This allows the same cigarette conveyor line and sealing machine to meet production needs when producing different specifications of cigarette products in the workshop, without the need to replan or rebuild other production lines, thus maximizing the utilization of the cigarette packaging workshop.

[0095] Although the present invention has been described herein with reference to several illustrative embodiments, it should be understood that many other modifications and implementations can be devised by those skilled in the art, which will fall within the scope and spirit of the principles disclosed herein. More specifically, various variations and modifications can be made to the components and / or layout of the subject matter combination within the scope of the disclosure, drawings, and claims. Besides variations and modifications to the components and / or layout, other uses will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
