[0002] Cigarette rolling machines are essential production equipment in cigarette manufacturing, used to process cigarettes.

[0003] Currently, after cigarettes are processed by the cigarette rolling machine, they are usually output using a cigarette outlet conveyor belt. Some also use a cigarette wheel. However, there are some problems in actual use. Cigarettes in the groove of the cigarette wheel are prone to getting stuck and cannot fall onto the conveyor belt in time, which causes the cigarettes to get stuck. At the same time, the speed adjustment of the cigarette wheel is not precise, and it cannot accurately handle the collection and conveying of cigarettes processed by the cigarette rolling machine. There is also the problem of cigarettes getting stuck in the conveyor belt and conveyor wheel of the conveyor.

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this application proposes a cigarette output device for a cigarette rolling machine. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a cigarette output device for a cigarette rolling machine to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 The technical solution provided by this utility model specifically includes the following embodiments:

[0022] A cigarette output device for a cigarette rolling machine includes a U-shaped base 1 and a conveyor 16. The conveyor 16 is located at the bottom front of the U-shaped base 1. Two inclined baffles 17 distributed on the left and right are connected above the conveyor 16. Multiple fixed brackets 18 are fixedly connected between the outer side of the inclined baffles 17 and the top of the housing of the conveyor 16.

[0023] By installing two symmetrically distributed inclined baffles on the conveyor belt, cigarettes falling on the conveyor can only land on the conveyor belt located between the two inclined baffles, thus avoiding the problem of cigarettes being caught between the conveyor belt and the conveyor wheel.

[0024] A receiving and conveying mechanism is installed on the top of the U-shaped seat 1. The receiving and conveying mechanism is used to catch the cigarette and output it to the conveyor 16.

[0025] The receiving and delivering mechanism includes a smoke wheel 2, which is located above the U-shaped base 1 and extends below the U-shaped base 1. The smoke wheel 2 has an open design on one side and multiple smoke grooves 21 are provided at the outer end of the smoke wheel 2. A through-hole 22 is provided between the smoke grooves 21 and the interior of the smoke wheel 2. An auxiliary mechanism and a driving mechanism are installed on the top of the U-shaped base 1. The auxiliary mechanism is located on one side of the smoke wheel 2 and extends into the interior of the smoke wheel 2. The smoke wheel 2 is movably connected to the U-shaped base 1 through the driving mechanism.

[0026] The open design on one side of the cigarette wheel 2 facilitates the insertion of the auxiliary mechanism into the cigarette wheel 2 without affecting the driving mechanism's rotation of the cigarette wheel 2. The cigarette groove 21 can be used to hold the processed cigarettes, while the through-hole 22 facilitates the application of the auxiliary mechanism.

[0027] The driving mechanism includes a movable seat 3, which is fixedly connected to the top of the U-shaped seat 1 and located on the other side of the smoke wheel 2. A shaft 4 is fixedly connected to the other side of the smoke wheel 2, and the shaft 4 passes through the movable seat 3. The movable seat 3 and the shaft 4 are movably connected. A large gear 5 is fixedly connected to the end of the shaft 4. A servo motor 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the U-shaped seat 1 and is located on the side of the movable seat 3 away from the smoke wheel 2. A small gear 7 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the servo motor 6. The small gear 7 is located at the bottom of the large gear 5, and the large gear 5 and the small gear 7 mesh with each other.

[0028] The drive mechanism drives the cigarette wheel 2 to rotate a fixed angle each time, so that there is always an empty cigarette slot 21 on the cigarette wheel 2 directly above the cigarette wheel 2 waiting for use. The cigarettes processed by the cigarette machine will fall into the cigarette slot 21.

[0029] The auxiliary mechanism includes a fixed base 8, which is fixedly connected to the top of the U-shaped base 1. An extension column 9 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixed base 8. The extension column 9 is located on one side of the smoke wheel 2 and extends into the inside of the smoke wheel 2. A support plate 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the extension column 9. An infrared sensor 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 10. The infrared sensor 11 is located below a through-hole 22 directly above the smoke wheel 2.

[0030] Whenever a cigarette processed by the cigarette rolling machine falls into the tobacco slot 21 directly above the cigarette wheel 2, the infrared sensor 11 will detect the cigarette through the through-hole 22. At this time, the drive mechanism will immediately drive the cigarette wheel 2 to rotate. The speed at which the cigarette wheel 2 rotates after each detection of a cigarette is greater than the speed at which the cigarette is processed by the cigarette rolling machine. This eliminates the need for precise adjustment of the rotation speed of the cigarette wheel 2, as long as there is always an empty tobacco slot 21 directly above the cigarette wheel 2 waiting for backup.

[0031] The auxiliary mechanism also includes an air box 13, which is located in front of the extension column 9. A support plate 12 is fixedly connected between the extension column 9 and the air box 13. An air outlet 14 is opened on the front side of the air box 13. The air outlet 14 is connected to a through hole 22 on the front of the smoke wheel 2. An air pipe 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the air box 13.

[0032] When the cigarette in the tobacco tray 21 has rotated to the front as the tobacco wheel 2 and has not yet fallen onto the conveyor 16, the gas in the gas box 13 will be blown out from the gas outlet 14, and then through the corresponding through hole 22 to blow the cigarette out of the tobacco tray 21, thus avoiding the problem of the cigarette getting stuck and not being able to be delivered in time. The end of the gas pipe 15 can be connected to an air pump or other aeration equipment (not shown in the figure). Since such equipment is relatively common, it will not be described in detail here.

[0033] Working principle:

[0034] After each cigarette is processed by the cigarette rolling machine, it falls into a slot 21 directly above the cigarette wheel 2. Once the cigarette falls into the slot 21, the infrared sensor 11 immediately detects it through the through-hole 22. At this point, the servo motor 6 starts, and through the meshing of the small gear 7 and the large gear 5, as well as the transmission of the shaft 4, the cigarette wheel 2 rotates at a certain angle. Each rotation angle is the same, ensuring that a through-hole 22 is always positioned directly above the cigarette wheel 2. This ensures that a through-hole 22 is always ready before the cigarette rolling machine finishes processing a cigarette. As the cigarette wheel 2 continues to rotate... When the cigarette holder 21 containing the cigarettes rotates to the front of the cigarette wheel 2, the gas in the gas box 13 can be blown into the cigarette holder 21 through the gas outlet 14 and the corresponding through-hole 22, thereby blowing the cigarettes in the cigarette holder 21 out and onto the conveyor 16. Due to the obstruction of the two inclined baffles 17, the cigarettes that fall onto the conveyor 16 can only be conveyed on the conveyor belt of the conveyor 16 between the two inclined baffles 17. Throughout the process, there will be no phenomenon of cigarettes getting stuck between the cigarette wheel 2 and the conveyor 16, nor will there be any phenomenon of cigarettes getting stuck between the conveyor belt and the conveyor wheel on the conveyor 16.
