Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of cigarette production, and in particular to a cigarette rolling machine. Background Technology
[0002] During cigarette production, the high-speed movement of the tobacco sticks in the cigarette rolling machine causes tobacco dust to splatter, accumulating at the adhesive application area of the machine. This results in tobacco dust being mixed into the cigarette seam, thus affecting cigarette quality. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly clean the tobacco dust accumulated at the adhesive application area of the cigarette rolling machine.
[0003] In traditional techniques, it is usually necessary to disassemble the cigarette rolling machine and clean the soot from the glued areas inside the machine. However, this method will cause the cigarette rolling machine to stop, making it impossible to produce continuously and affecting the production efficiency of the cigarette rolling machine. Utility Model Content
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a cigarette machine that addresses the problem that traditional technologies require disassembling the cigarette machine to clean the tobacco residue at the adhesive application area, which prevents continuous production and thus affects the production efficiency of the cigarette machine.
[0005] The technical solution is as follows:
[0006] One embodiment provides a cigarette rolling machine, comprising:

[0010] In the aforementioned cigarette rolling machine, both the negative pressure mechanism and the blowing mechanism are mounted on the base. The blowing port of the blowing mechanism is used to pre-blow the smoke at the adhesive application area, causing the smoke at the adhesive application area to be dispersed. This allows the suction port of the negative pressure mechanism to suck up the dispersed smoke, thereby improving the suction and cleaning effect of the negative pressure mechanism on the adhesive application area. Compared with traditional technology, the aforementioned cigarette rolling machine uses the negative pressure mechanism and the blowing mechanism in combination to clean the smoke at the adhesive application area. The adhesive application area can be cleaned without disassembling the cigarette rolling machine, thus preventing the cigarette rolling machine from stopping and ensuring the production efficiency of the cigarette rolling machine.

The first vent is connected to the purging port, and the second vent is oriented toward the adhesive application position. The diameter of the second vent is smaller than the diameter of the first vent.

Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this application, where the term "multiple" appears, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0032] Please see Figure 1One embodiment of this application provides a cigarette rolling machine, including a base 100, a negative pressure mechanism 200, and a blowing mechanism 300. The base 100 is provided with an adhesive application position 110; the blowing mechanism 300 is disposed on the base 100 and is provided with a blowing port 310, which is positioned toward the adhesive application position 110, and the blowing mechanism 300 is used to pre-blow the smoke at the adhesive application position 110; the negative pressure mechanism 200 is disposed on the base 100 and is provided with a suction port 210, which is positioned toward the adhesive application position 110, and the negative pressure mechanism 200 is used to suck up the pre-blown smoke.
[0033] In the aforementioned cigarette rolling machine, both the negative pressure mechanism 200 and the blowing mechanism 300 are mounted on the base 100. The blowing port 310 of the blowing mechanism 300 is used to pre-blow the smoke at the adhesive application position 110, causing the smoke at the adhesive application position 110 to be dispersed, so that the suction port 210 of the negative pressure mechanism 200 can suck up the dispersed smoke, thereby improving the suction and cleaning effect of the negative pressure mechanism 200 on the adhesive application position 110. Compared with traditional technology, the aforementioned cigarette rolling machine uses the negative pressure mechanism 200 and the blowing mechanism 300 to clean the smoke at the adhesive application position 110 without disassembling the cigarette rolling machine, thus preventing the cigarette rolling machine from stopping and ensuring the production efficiency of the cigarette rolling machine.
[0034] In addition, the negative pressure mechanism 200 and the blowing mechanism 300 work together to clean the tobacco dust at the adhesive application position 110, which can also prevent the occurrence of cigarette tip defects.
[0035] Further, please refer to Figure 1 The adhesive application position 110 is located between the suction port 210 and the blowing port 310. The suction port 210 is oriented roughly opposite to the blowing port 310. In this way, the airflow blown out by the blowing port 310 blows the smoke from the adhesive application position 110 toward the vicinity of the suction port 210, so that the suction port 210 can suck up the smoke in the vicinity and improve cleaning efficiency.
[0036] Furthermore, please refer to Figure 1 The purging mechanism 300 and the negative pressure mechanism 200 are respectively located on opposite sides of the adhesive application position 110, and the direction of the suction port 210 is roughly opposite to the direction of the purging port 310.
[0037] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment, the cigarette rolling machine further includes an adhesive application mechanism 400, which is disposed on the base 100 and has an adhesive application section located at the adhesive application position 110.
[0038] The glue-applying part of the glue-applying mechanism 400 is located at the glue-applying position 110 of the base 100 to apply glue to the cigarette paper at the glue-applying position 110.
[0039] Further, please refer to Figure 1 The glue application mechanism 400 includes a mounting base 410 and a glue gun 420. The mounting base 410 is connected to the base 100, the glue gun 420 is located on the second mounting base 340, and the glue application part is located on the glue gun 420.
[0040] Furthermore, the mounting base 410 is provided with a mounting groove, into which the handle 422 of the glue gun 420 is inserted to achieve the assembly of the glue gun 420.
[0041] For explanation, the glue application part is the nozzle 421 of the glue gun 420, and the airflow of the blowing mechanism 300 can cover the area near the nozzle 421 (i.e., the glue application position 110) to blow away the smoke and suck it away through the suction port 210 of the negative pressure mechanism 200.
[0042] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment, the cigarette rolling machine further includes a large pressure plate 510 and a small pressure plate 520, both of which are located on the base 100. The large pressure plate 510 and the small pressure plate 520 cooperate with each other to wrap the glued cigarette paper, thereby wrapping the tobacco inside the cigarette paper.
[0043] Please see Figures 1 to 2 In one embodiment, the purging mechanism 300 includes a gas compressor (not shown) and a purging pipe 320. One end of the purging pipe 320 is connected to the gas compressor, and the other end of the purging pipe 320 is provided with a purging port 310.
[0044] The gas compressor can compress the airflow and deliver it to the purge line 320. After the airflow is compressed by the gas compressor, its own flow rate is increased, thereby increasing the flow rate of the airflow blown out from the purge port 310 and ensuring the dispersion effect of the smoke at the adhesive application position 110.
[0045] Furthermore, the gas compression component can be an air compressor, which can compress the gas and increase its flow rate, thereby increasing the flow rate of the airflow blown out from the purge port 310 and ensuring the dispersion effect of the smoke droplets.
[0046] Optionally, the gas compression component can be located on the base 100 or in other parts of the cigarette machine; no specific limitation is made here.
[0047] Please see Figures 1 to 2 In one embodiment, the purging mechanism 300 further includes a purging head 330, which has a first vent and a second vent connected to each other. The first vent is connected to the purging port 310, and the second vent is positioned toward the adhesive application position 110. The diameter of the second vent is smaller than that of the first vent.
[0048] The airflow in the purge pipe 320 enters the purge head 330 through the first vent, and is blown toward the adhesive application position 110 through the second vent of the purge head 330. The diameter of the second vent is smaller than that of the first vent, which can accelerate the flow rate of the airflow from the second vent, thereby further improving the purge mechanism 300's effect on dispersing the smoke at the adhesive application position 110.
[0049] Furthermore, one end of the purge head 330 is provided with a first vent hole, and the other end of the purge head 330 is provided with a second vent hole. The inner diameter of the end of the purge head 330 with the first vent hole gradually decreases towards the end of the purge head 330 with the second vent hole, so as to further accelerate the flow rate of the airflow from the second vent hole.
[0050] In one embodiment, the wall of the first vent hole of the purge head 330 is provided with an internal thread, and the purge port 310 of the purge pipe 320 is provided with an external thread. The connection between the purge head 330 and the purge pipe 320 is achieved by the screw connection between the external thread and the internal thread, which has low implementation cost and reliable connection effect.
[0051] Furthermore, the detachable connection between the blowing head 330 and the blowing pipe 320 is achieved through the screw connection between the external and internal threads, thereby allowing the shape and diameter of the blowing head 330 to be changed according to the actual situation (i.e. the processing of different leaf group formula tobaccos) to achieve better cleaning effect.
[0052] Please see Figures 2 to 3 In one embodiment, the purging mechanism 300 further includes a mounting base 340, which is connected to the base 100 and has an air intake channel 341. One end of the purging pipe 320 away from the purging port 310 is connected to one end of the air intake channel 341, and the gas compressor is connected to the other end of the air intake channel 341.
[0053] The airflow compressed by the gas compressor enters the purge pipe 320 through the air inlet channel 341 of the mounting base 340. The mounting base 340 can improve the installation strength of the purge pipe 320 on the base 100. The air inlet channel 341 can improve the installation stability of the purge pipe 320 without affecting the connection between the gas compressor and the purge pipe 320.
[0054] Further, please refer to Figure 3 The intake passage 341 is opened at both ends on the top wall and side wall of the mounting base 340 to form an L-shaped intake passage 341, which facilitates the connection between the gas compressor and the intake passage 341.
[0055] Please see Figures 2 to 3In one embodiment, the purging mechanism 300 further includes a fixing component (not shown in the figure), and the mounting base 340 is provided with a mounting part 342, which is connected to the base 100 through the fixing component.
[0056] The mounting part 342 can improve the installation stability of the mounting base 340 on the base 100. The mounting part 342 is connected to the mounting base 340 through a fixing component, thereby further improving the installation stability and reliability of the base 100.
[0057] Further, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The mounting part 342 is located on the side where the mounting base 340 is connected to the base 100 and is connected to the base 100, so that the area at the connection between the mounting base 340 and the base 100 is larger, thereby improving the installation reliability of the mounting base 340.
[0058] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment, the mounting portion 342 extends outward toward the side where the mounting base 340 is connected to the base 100.
[0059] Optionally, there may be one mounting part 342 or at least two mounting parts 342, which are circumferentially spaced along the side where the mounting base 340 is connected to the base 100; in other embodiments, the mounting part 342 is annular and surrounds the side where the mounting base 340 is connected to the base 100, which will not be described in detail here.
[0060] Please see Figures 2 to 3 In one embodiment, the fixing component includes a fixing bolt, the mounting part 342 is provided with a connecting through hole 343, the base 100 is provided with a screw hole, and the fixing bolt passes through the connecting through hole 343 and is screwed into the screw hole.
[0061] The fixing bolt passes through the connecting through hole 343 of the mounting part 342 and is screwed into the screw hole on the base 100, thereby fixing the mounting base 340 on the base 100. This method has low implementation cost and reliable fixing effect.
[0062] Furthermore, at least two connecting through holes 343 are provided and spaced apart on the mounting part 342, and at least two screw holes and fixing bolts are provided and are provided one-to-one corresponding to the connecting through holes 343.
[0063] Please see Figure 2 In one embodiment, the purging mechanism 300 further includes a flow regulating valve 350, which is located at the end of the air inlet channel 341 away from the purging pipeline 320 and is connected to the gas compression component.
[0064] The flow regulating valve 350 can regulate the flow rate of gas delivered from the gas compressor to the air inlet channel 341, thereby controlling the gas flow rate used to disperse the soot at the adhesive application position 110, so that the operator can adjust the gas flow rate according to the amount of soot accumulated at the adhesive application position 110.
[0065] Furthermore, the flow regulating valve 350 is mounted on the mounting base 340 and is equipped with an adjustment knob. Operators can adjust the gas flow rate through the flow regulating valve 350 by rotating the adjustment knob, which is convenient to operate.
[0066] Please see Figure 2 In one embodiment, the gas compressor includes a compressor body (not shown) and a compressed air supply hose 360, one end of which is connected to the compressor body and the other end of which is connected to a flow regulating valve 350.
[0067] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment, the negative pressure mechanism 200 includes a suction tube 220 and a negative pressure generating element (not shown in the figure). One end of the suction tube 220 is connected to the negative pressure generating element, and the other end of the suction tube 220 is provided with a suction port 210.
[0068] The negative pressure generating component can generate negative pressure. One end of the suction pipe 220 is connected to the negative pressure generating component so that the smoke particles blown away at the adhesive application position 110 can be sucked through the suction port 210 at the other end of the suction pipe 220 to ensure the suction effect of the smoke particles.
[0069] Optionally, the negative pressure generating component can be installed on the base 100 or in other parts of the cigarette machine; no specific limitation is made here.
[0070] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment, the negative pressure mechanism 200 includes a suction line 220, and the purging mechanism 300 includes a purging line 320. At least one of the suction line 220 and the purging line 320 is bendable.
[0071] At least one of the suction line 220 and the purge line 320 is bendable, so that the orientation of the suction port 210 or the purge port 310 can be finely adjusted by bending the suction line 220 or the purge line 320. The operator can point the suction port 210 or the purge port 310 toward the part of the adhesive application position 110 with the most soot to remove the soot from that part. This setting can improve the soot removal effect and flexibility of the adhesive application position 110.
[0072] In one embodiment, both the suction pipe 220 and the purging pipe 320 can be bent to allow operators to fine-tune the orientation of the suction port 210 and the purging port 310, adapting to different tobacco blends and improving the flexibility of tobacco removal.
[0073] In one embodiment, the suction line 220 is a PVC hose, which has advantages such as high flexibility, long service life and wide operating temperature range, so as to improve the suction reliability of the suction line 220.
[0074] In one embodiment, the purge line 320 is a metal hose, which is strong and flexible to improve the reliability of the purge line.
[0075] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0076] The above embodiments merely illustrate several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
