[0002] The cigarette-making machine heater is a key component of the cigarette-making unit. It is mainly used to heat the cigarette sticks and tipping paper to ensure the bonding quality and process requirements during cigarette production.
[0003] Currently, during night shift maintenance and repairs of the cigarette making machine, the heater is powered on, and operators are required to disconnect it to achieve energy conservation, reduce consumption, and ensure safety. However, the existing electronic control system of the cigarette making machine can only be operated manually, which is cumbersome. Moreover, it has been observed that operators sometimes forget to disconnect the heater, leading to night shift downtime or prolonged maintenance that leaves the heater running for extended periods, increasing unnecessary energy consumption. Prolonged operation of the heating system components is also prone to damage and can easily create safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0029] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0030] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this utility model are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the utility model described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.
[0031] Figure 1 This is an electrical schematic diagram of a coiling machine heater control system provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the coiling machine heater control system includes a controller 10 and a first switching unit 40 connected in series between the heater 20 and the coiling machine power supply 30; the controller 10 is electrically connected to the first switching unit 40 and is used to control the closing or opening of the first switching unit 40.
[0032] Specifically, the winding machine power supply 30 supplies power to the heater 20 to ensure its normal operation. When the winding machine is undergoing nighttime maintenance or repair, the heaters need to be disconnected to prevent damage to components and potential safety hazards caused by prolonged operation. Currently, some heaters are disconnected by manually adjusting the control panel, or some heaters can only be disconnected by manually adjusting the heating temperature parameter to 0. For example, operators typically change the heater temperature to 0 at the end of the middle shift and restore it before starting the machine in the morning shift, which is cumbersome. This embodiment of the invention connects a first switching unit 40 in series between the winding machine power supply 30 and the heaters. The controller 10 can then control the state of the first switching unit 40, thereby controlling the operating state of the heaters.
[0033] Specifically, when the heater needs to operate, the controller 10 controls the first switch unit 40 to be in the closed state so that the winding machine power supply 30 can supply power to the heater, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the heater. When the heater needs to be stopped, the controller 10 controls the first switch unit 40 to be in the open state. At this time, the winding machine power supply 30 cannot supply power to the heater, and the heater stops operating.
[0034] Furthermore, the controller 10 can determine the operating state of the first switching unit 40 by acquiring the signal from pin 54 of the normally open contact of the K9 relay inside the winding machine. When pin 54 of the K9 relay has no 24V for an extended period, the controller 10 determines that the auxiliary drive stop time of the equipment is too long, that is, the controller determines that the shutdown time of the winding machine heater exceeds the preset time, and then controls the first switching unit 40 to open so that the heater stops working.
[0035] It should be noted that the preset time can be set according to the performance and parameters of the heater. This embodiment of the utility model does not specifically limit the preset time, and those skilled in the art can set and adjust it according to the actual situation.
[0036] The coiling machine heater control system provided in this embodiment of the invention connects a first switching unit in series between the heater and the coiling machine power supply, allowing the controller to control the operating state of the switching unit. Specifically, when the coiling machine heater is shut down for an extended period, the controller can open the first switching unit, thereby stopping the heater from operating and preventing energy waste caused by prolonged heater closure. Furthermore, disconnecting the heater protects the heating components and avoids potential safety hazards.
[0037] Optional, Figure 2 This is an electrical schematic diagram of the second type of coiling machine heater control system provided in this embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 2As shown, heater 20 includes a first sealer heater 201, a second sealer heater 202, a cork heater 203, and a cork paper heater 204.
[0038] Specifically, the first sealing heater 201 and the second sealing heater 202 are heating devices used for sealing cigarette paper. The first sealing heater 201 is mainly used in the initial stage of the sealing process to quickly soften the sealing material. The second sealing heater 202 is mainly used in the subsequent stages of the sealing process to ensure the strength and consistency of the seal.
[0039] Specifically, the cork heater 203 is a device for heating the surface of the cork board to ensure that the tipping paper can dry quickly and bond firmly when containing cigarettes.
[0040] Specifically, the tipping paper heater 204 is a device used to heat the tipping paper to ensure that the tipping paper can dry quickly and adhere firmly when wrapping cigarettes and filters.
[0041] Optional, continue to refer to Figure 2 The first switch unit 40 includes a first switch K1, a second switch K2, a third switch K3, and a fourth switch K4; the first switch K1 is connected in series between the first sealing heater 201 and the winding and splicing machine power supply 30; the second switch K2 is connected in series between the second sealing heater 202 and the winding and splicing machine power supply 30; the third switch K3 is connected in series between the cork heater 203 and the winding and splicing machine power supply 30; and the fourth switch K4 is connected in series between the tipping paper heater 204 and the winding and splicing machine power supply 30.
[0042] Specifically, a first switch K1 is connected in series between the first sealing heater 201 and the winding and splicing machine power supply 30, so that the controller 10 can control the operation and shutdown of the first sealing heater 201 by controlling the opening and closing of the first switch K1. A second switch K2 is connected in series between the second sealing heater 202 and the winding and splicing machine power supply 30, so that the controller 10 can control the operation and shutdown of the second sealing heater 202 by controlling the opening and closing of the second switch K2. A third switch K3 is connected in series between the corrugated board heater 203 and the winding and splicing machine power supply 30, so that the controller 10 can control the operation and shutdown of the corrugated board heater 203 by controlling the opening and closing of the third switch K3. A fourth switch K4 is connected in series between the tipping paper heater 204 and the winding and splicing machine power supply 30, so that the controller 10 can control the operation and shutdown of the tipping paper heater 204 by controlling the opening and closing of the fourth switch K4, thereby realizing intelligent control of the heater's operating status.
[0043] Specifically, by setting a one-to-one correspondence between switches and heaters, the controller can control the working state of the corresponding heater by controlling the working state of each switch.
[0044] Optional, continue to refer to Figure 2 The first switch unit 40 corresponds to and is electrically connected to the heater 20.
[0045] Specifically, the number of first switch units 40 is the same as the number of heaters 20, that is, each first switch unit 40 corresponds to one heater 20. In other words, each heater 20 is connected to the winding machine power supply 30 through a first switch unit 40. This facilitates the control of the working status of the corresponding heater through the first switch unit 40, making it easier to stop the heater in time, reduce energy consumption, and avoid safety hazards.
[0046] Optional, continue to refer to Figure 1 The first switching unit 40 includes a relay switch.
[0047] Specifically, the first switching unit 40 includes a relay switch, which is an automatic switching element with isolation function. When the heater malfunctions, such as overload or short circuit, the relay switch will quickly cut off the power supply, which can protect the winding machine on the one hand and will not affect the normal operation of other heaters on the other hand.
[0048] Furthermore, when the heater is operating normally, the relay switch is normally closed. When pin 54 of relay K9 has no 24V for an extended period, controller 10 determines that the auxiliary drive stop time has been too long, i.e., controller 10 determines that the winding machine heater stop time exceeds the preset time, and thus controls the relay switch to open, causing the heater to stop working. When relay K9 is energized, pin 54 of the normally open contact receives 24V input to controller 10. Controller 10 determines that the equipment is ready to operate, and then disconnects the 24V output, causing the normally closed contacts of each relay switch to close, and each heater resumes normal heating control.
[0049] For example, the first switching unit 40 can be a solid-state relay switch. Solid-state relay switches have advantages such as long life, fast response speed and high sensitivity, which can ensure the stability and reliability of the winding machine control system.
[0050] Optional, Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the electrical principle of the third type of coiling machine heater control system provided in this embodiment of the utility model, as shown below. Figure 3 As shown, the first switching unit 40 includes a first sub-switch 401 and a second sub-switch 402 connected in series.
[0051] Specifically, the first switching unit 40 includes two sub-switches connected in series, namely the first sub-switch 401 and the second sub-switch 402. That is, each heater is connected in series to the winding and splicing machine power supply through the first sub-switch 401 and the second sub-switch 402 respectively. Thus, if one sub-switch fails, the controller can still control the heater's operating status by controlling the operating state of the other sub-switch. By setting the first sub-switch 401 and the second sub-switch 402, dual protection for the heaters can be achieved, which helps ensure the stability and reliability of the winding and splicing machine heater control system.
[0052] For example, both the first sub-switch 401 and the second sub-switch 402 can be relay switches. For example, one of the first sub-switch 401 and the second sub-switch 402 can be a relay switch, and the other can be a toggle switch, etc.
[0053] Optional, continue to refer to Figure 3 The first sub-switch 401 includes a relay switch; the second sub-switch 402 includes a toggle switch.
[0054] Specifically, the first sub-switch 401 includes a relay switch, which is an automatic switching element with isolation function. When the heater malfunctions, such as overload or short circuit, the relay switch will quickly cut off the power supply, which can protect the winding machine on the one hand, and will not affect the normal operation of other heaters on the other hand.
[0055] Specifically, the second sub-switch 402 includes a toggle switch. A toggle switch can be understood as a switching element that connects or disconnects the circuit by moving a switch handle, thereby achieving the purpose of switching the circuit. When the relay switch malfunctions, it is not necessary to shut down the winding machine power supply; simply turning off the toggle switch for that circuit is sufficient. This helps ensure the normal operation of other undamaged branches.
[0056] Optional, continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The coiling machine heater control system also includes at least one extension switch unit 50; the extension switch unit 50 is connected in series between the extension heater 205 and the coiling machine power supply 30; the controller 10 is also electrically connected to the extension switch unit 50 and is used to control the opening or closing of the extension switch unit 50.
[0057] Specifically, with industrial development, the number of heaters in winding and splicing machines may increase, and the extended sensor 205 can be a heating device used to achieve other heating functions. This embodiment, by setting an extended switch unit 50, facilitates the electrical connection of the extended heater 205 to the winding and splicing machine power supply 30 through the extended switch unit 50. Furthermore, when an extended heater 205 is added, the controller 10 can control the operating state of the extended heater by controlling the closing and opening of the extended switch unit 50.
[0058] Optional, continue to refer to Figure 1 The controller 10 includes a programmable logic controller.
[0059] Specifically, the controller 10 includes a programmable logic controller (PLC), which has high flexibility and expandability, thereby enabling flexibility and accuracy in the control system of the coiling machine heater.
[0060] Based on the same inventive concept, this utility model embodiment also provides a coiling machine heater control device, which includes the coiling machine heater control system described above. Therefore, the coiling machine heater control device has the technical effects described above, which will not be repeated here.
[0061] Note that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions can be made without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention has been described in detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and may include many other equivalent embodiments without departing from the concept of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
