Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of tobacco equipment technology, and in particular to a fabric-laying device. Background Technology

[0002] In the tobacco production process, storage tanks are needed to store materials such as tobacco leaves and shredded tobacco, playing a role in buffering, balancing moisture, and absorbing flavorings in various production stages. The distribution of materials within the storage tanks plays a crucial role in balancing moisture, absorbing flavorings, and stabilizing material flow in each section of the production line.

[0003] Currently, the process of material entering the storage tank on the production line typically employs a flat-laying method. This involves a distribution cart transporting the material to a laying cart, which then lays the material flat into the storage tank. Specifically, the laying cart moves from the near end to the far end of the storage tank, and upon reaching the far end and sensing a sensor switch, it reverses direction, moving from the far end to the near end. This process continues until it reaches the near end and senses a sensor switch, at which point it reverses direction again, thus achieving reciprocating laying. This method enables the material to be laid downwards into the storage tank.

[0004] However, when the material delivery vehicle reaches the near end, some material is still on the delivery vehicle and has not completely entered the storage tank. At this time, the delivery vehicle changes direction, and the material in the storage tank will continue to pile up at the same position, resulting in a stepped accumulation of material in the storage tank with the near end being higher and the far end being lower.

At this time, the discharge end has not yet moved to the initial position. The control mechanism controls the first transport component to move a first preset distance in the first direction. Thus, before the discharge end moves to the initial position in the second direction, the first transport component advances in advance in the first direction. This can prevent the material in the second receiving cavity from not completely falling into the storage tank during the process of the discharge end moving from the first preset position to the initial position. This can prevent the material from accumulating between the first preset position and the initial position, and prevent the material from forming a stepped accumulation with a high near end and a low far end in the storage tank.

[0048] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0049] In the description of this application, it should be understood that if terms such as "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" appear, these terms indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0050] Furthermore, where the terms "first" and "second" appear, these terms are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. 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.

[0051] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0052] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the use of descriptions such as "above" or "below" the second feature indicates that the first and second features are in direct contact or indirect contact via an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. Similarly, "below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0053] It should be noted that the material-laying device provided in the relevant technology uses a distribution vehicle to transport materials to a material-laying vehicle, which then lays the materials flat into the storage tank. Specifically, the material-laying vehicle moves from the near end to the far end of the storage tank, and after reaching the far end and sensing the induction switch, it reverses direction and moves from the far end to the near end. This continues until it reaches the near end and senses the near end's induction switch, then reverses direction again, thus achieving reciprocating material laying. Further, when the material-laying vehicle reverses direction after reaching the near end and sensing the near end's induction switch, the distribution vehicle steps forward a certain distance, thus performing another reciprocating laying operation, thereby sequentially laying materials into different columns of the storage tank. This method achieves the downward laying of materials into the storage tank.

[0054] However, when the material placing trolley reaches the near end, some material remains on the trolley and has not fully entered the storage tank. If the trolley then reverses direction, material will continue to pile up in the same spot within the storage tank, creating a stepped accumulation pattern where the material is higher near the end and lower further away. Furthermore, during the material discharge process from the storage tank, this can lead to material blockages in the early stages of discharge and insufficient material in the later stages, affecting the normal discharge process.

[0055] It should be noted that the materials are tobacco, tobacco leaves, shredded tobacco, tobacco stems, etc. The near end of the storage tank is the end closest to the fabric placing vehicle, and the far end of the storage tank is the end furthest from the fabric placing vehicle.

[0056] See Figure 1As shown. An embodiment of this application provides a fabric feeding device 1 for feeding fabric into a storage tank 2. The fabric feeding device 1 includes a first transport mechanism 11, a second transport mechanism 12, a detection mechanism 13, and a control mechanism. The first transport mechanism 11 includes a first transport member 111 and a first conveying member 112; the first transport member 111 is reciprocating along a first direction; the first transport member 111 forms a first receiving cavity with an opening, and the first conveying member 112 is disposed within the first receiving cavity. The second transport mechanism 12 is disposed on the side of the first transport mechanism 11 facing the direction of gravity; the second transport mechanism 12 includes a second transport member 121 and a second conveying member 122; the second transport member 121 is reciprocating along a second direction; the second transport member 121 forms a second receiving cavity with an opening, and the second conveying member 122 is disposed within the second receiving cavity. The detection mechanism 13 is disposed on the side of the second transport mechanism 12 facing the direction of gravity; the detection mechanism 13 is used to obtain the position of the discharge end of the second transport member 121. The control mechanism is electrically connected to the detection mechanism 13 and the first transport member 111, and is used to move the first transport member 111 to a first preset position in the direction away from the storage tank 2 along the second direction at the discharge end, and to control the first transport member 111 to move a first preset distance along the first direction. The first conveyor 112 is used to transfer the material 3 in the first receiving cavity to the second receiving cavity; the second conveyor 122 is used to transfer the material 3 in the second receiving cavity to the storage tank 2; the first direction and the second direction intersect.

[0057] It should be noted that the first direction in this application is... Figure 1 The X direction in the middle, the second direction is Figure 1 The Y direction in this application. Material 3 in this application refers to tobacco, tobacco leaves, shredded tobacco, tobacco stems, etc., and the specific type of material 3 is not limited here.

[0058] It should be further explained that the first conveyor 112 is used to transfer the material 3 in the first accommodating cavity to the second accommodating cavity; the second conveyor 122 is used to transfer the material 3 in the second accommodating cavity to the storage cabinet 2. That is, the first conveyor 112 moves relative to the first transporter 111, so that the first conveyor 112 can move relative to the first transporter 111 to transfer the material 3 whether the first transporter 111 is moving or stationary. Similarly, the second conveyor 122 moves relative to the second transporter 121, so that the second conveyor 122 can move relative to the first transporter 111 to transfer the material 3 whether the second transporter 121 is moving or stationary.

[0059] It is understandable that, since the first conveyor 112 is always located within the first transporter 111 during its movement, preferably, the first conveyor 112 rotates relative to the first transporter 111, thereby ensuring that the first conveyor 112 remains within the first transporter 111 while simultaneously conveying material 3. Similarly, since the second conveyor 122 is always located within the second transporter 121 during its movement, preferably, the second conveyor 122 rotates relative to the second transporter 121, thereby ensuring that the second conveyor 122 remains within the second transporter 121 while simultaneously conveying material 3.

[0060] Of course, the first conveyor 112 can also be in other non-rotational motion modes, as long as it can ensure that the first conveyor 112 is located inside the first transporter 111 while the material 3 is transported through the first conveyor 112. Here, the motion mode of the first conveyor 112 will not be limited or described in detail. Similarly, the second conveyor 122 can also be in other non-rotational motion modes, as long as it can ensure that the second conveyor 122 is located inside the second transporter 121 while the material 3 is transported through the second conveyor 122. Here, the motion mode of the second conveyor 122 will not be limited or described in detail.

[0061] For ease of understanding, the side of the storage tank 2 closest to the discharge end along the second direction is defined as the near end of the storage tank 2, and the side of the storage tank 2 furthest from the discharge end along the second direction is defined as the far end of the storage tank 2. The initial position of the discharge end is defined as the position of the discharge end close to the near end of the storage tank 2, and the first preset position of the discharge end is defined as the position of the discharge end close to the initial position.

[0062] In this configuration, the first transport component 111 remains stationary, the first conveyor component 112 is used to transfer the material 3 in the first accommodating cavity to the second accommodating cavity, the second transport component 121 moves from the initial position at the discharge end towards the far end of the storage tank 2 along the second direction, and the second conveyor component 122 is used to transfer the material 3 in the second accommodating cavity to the storage tank 2. When the discharge end moves to the far end of the storage tank 2, the second transport component 121 changes direction, thereby moving towards the near end of the storage tank 2 along the second direction. When the discharge end moves away from the storage tank 2 along the second direction to the first preset position, the control mechanism controls the first transport component 111 to move a first preset distance along the first direction until the second transport component 121 moves to the initial position. The second transport component 121 changes direction and performs the next reciprocating material distribution, thereby realizing the downward distribution of the material 3 into the storage tank 2.

[0063] Furthermore, when the discharge end moves away from the storage tank 2 in the second direction to the first preset position, before the discharge end has moved to the initial position, the first transport component 111 is controlled by the control mechanism to move a first preset distance in the first direction. Thus, before the discharge end moves to the initial position in the second direction, the first transport component 111 advances in the first direction in advance. This can prevent the material 3 from not completely falling into the storage tank 2 while the discharge end is moving from the first preset position to the initial position. This can prevent the material 3 from accumulating between the first preset position and the initial position, and prevent the material 3 from forming a stepped accumulation with a high near end and a low far end in the storage tank 2. This can ensure the flatness of the material distribution in the storage tank 2.

[0064] Specifically, since the first transport component 111 advances along the first direction before the discharge end has moved to the initial position along the second direction, the remaining material 3 in the second accommodating cavity of the storage cabinet 2 along the second direction is sufficient to fill the gap in the storage cabinet 2 along the second direction. At the same time, since the first transport component 111 advances along the first direction, the material 3 transferred to the second transport component 122 by the first transport component 112 can further distribute the material in the adjacent column of the storage cabinet 2, thereby avoiding the situation of the material 3 being high at the near end and low at the far end in the storage cabinet 2, thus ensuring the flatness of the material distribution in the storage cabinet 2.

[0065] Based on the above explanation, during the material storage process in the storage cabinet 2, the material 3 inside the storage cabinet 2 is flat, which ensures that the material is discharged evenly throughout the entire discharge process.

[0066] In addition, since the control mechanism can move the first preset position at the discharge end away from the storage tank 2 in the second direction, and control the first transport component 111 to move a first preset distance in the first direction, the stepping program of the first transport component 111 is optimized. The position of the second transport component 121 is determined by the detection mechanism 13, and the first transport component 111 can move flexibly. This can avoid the situation where different materials 3 have material distribution steps due to different storage tanks 2, thereby satisfying the flatness and uniformity of material distribution for different types of storage tanks 2.

[0067] In addition, the material distribution of any storage tank 2 can be solved by setting an appropriate value, namely the first preset position, according to the control mechanism. This can solve the problem of material 3 accumulating at the near end and the far end, and can greatly alleviate the situation that material blockage is likely to occur in the early stage and material 3 is likely to be insufficient in the later stage due to manual adjustment of the material discharge speed of storage tank 2.

[0068] In some embodiments, the detection mechanism 13 is located on the side of the storage tank 2 away from the discharge end along the second direction. The detection mechanism 13 includes a fixing member 131 and a detection member 132. The fixing member 131 extends along a third direction; one end of the fixing member 131 is fixedly connected to the side of the storage tank 2 away from the second transport member 121. The detection member 132 is connected to the end of the fixing member 131 away from the storage tank 2; the detection member 132 faces the discharge end and is used to obtain the position of the discharge end. The third direction intersects both the first and second directions.

[0069] It should be noted that the third party in this application is... Figure 1 The Z direction in the equation.

[0070] In this way, the connection between the detection component 132 and the storage cabinet 2 can be realized through the fixing component 131. At the same time, the size of the fixing component 131 itself can ensure that the detection component 132 can face the discharge end, so that the detection component 132 can accurately obtain the position of the discharge end of the second transport component 121. This can improve the movement of the discharge end obtained by the detection component 132 away from the storage cabinet 2 in the second direction to the first preset position, thereby improving the flatness and uniformity of the subsequent material distribution in the storage cabinet 2.

[0071] In some embodiments, the detection element 132 is configured as a distance sensor to detect the distance between the discharge end and the detection element 132 in order to obtain the position of the discharge end.

[0072] Thus, since the detection element 132 is configured as a distance sensor, and the distance sensor adopts a non-contact measurement method, it does not need to directly contact the object being measured, avoiding damage to the object being measured, and also reducing the wear of the detection element 132 itself, thereby improving the service life and reliability of the detection element 132. In addition, the distance sensor can provide high-precision distance measurement results, meeting the needs of various precise measurements, thereby improving the flatness and uniformity of the subsequent material distribution in the storage tank 2, as the detection element 132 moves the discharge end away from the storage tank 2 in the second direction to the first preset position.

[0073] In some embodiments, the second transport member 121 moves at a speed of V1 along the second direction; the second transport member 121 moves away from the storage tank 2 along the second direction, and the second conveyor 122 conveys the material 3 at a speed of V2. Wherein, V1 < V2.

[0074] Thus, since V1 < V2, it can be ensured that during the process of the discharge end moving away from the storage tank 2 in the second direction, the speed at which the second conveyor 122 conveys the material 3 is always greater than the speed at which the second transporter 121 moves in the second direction. This ensures that the second conveyor 122 conveys the material 3 smoothly, and avoids the situation where the second transporter 121 has moved a certain distance but the second conveyor 122 has not yet conveyed the material 3. This improves the stability and reliability of the material distribution in the storage tank 2.

[0075] In some embodiments, the second transport member 121 moves along a second direction toward the storage tank 2, and the second conveyor 122 conveys the material 3 at a speed of V3. Wherein, V2 = V1 + V3.

[0076] Therefore, it should be noted that when the second transport component 121 moves towards the storage tank 2 along the second direction, the speed of the fabric is the sum of the speed at which the second conveyor 122 transports the material 3 and the speed at which the second transport component 121 moves along the second direction. Conversely, when the second transport component 121 moves away from the storage tank 2 along the second direction, the speed of the fabric is the difference between the speed at which the second conveyor 122 transports the material 3 and the speed at which the second transport component 121 moves along the second direction. Since V2 = V1 + V3, meaning the fabric speed when the second transport component 121 moves towards the storage tank 2 along the second direction is equal to the fabric speed when the second transport component 121 moves away from the storage tank 2 along the second direction, the fabric speed can be kept constant during the reciprocating fabric application process to the storage tank 2, thus ensuring the flatness and uniformity of the subsequent fabric application to the storage tank 2.

[0077] In some embodiments, the distance that the second transport member 121 moves away from the storage cabinet 2 along the second direction is S1, and the distance between the first preset position and the detection member 132 is S2. Wherein, S1 > S2, and S2 = S1 × (V1 / V2).

[0078] Thus, since S2 = S1 × (V1 / V2), the first preset position can be accurately determined for different types of storage tanks 2 using the above parameters. On the one hand, for any storage tank 2, by simply setting an appropriate value, i.e., the first preset position, according to the control mechanism, the problem of material 3 accumulating high at the near end and low at the far end in any storage tank 2 can be solved. This can also greatly alleviate the problems of material blockage in the early stage and insufficient material 3 in the later stage caused by manually adjusting the discharge speed of the storage tank 2. On the other hand, it makes it easier for operators to determine the first preset position, thereby facilitating their operation.

[0079] In some embodiments, the second transport member 121 includes a bottom wall and a side wall that enclose a second receiving cavity with an opening. The ends of the bottom wall and side wall facing the detection member 132 are configured as discharge ends. Along a second direction, the projection of the detection member 132 onto the second transport member 121 lies within the projection of the side wall onto the second transport member 121.

[0080] Thus, since the projection of the detection element 132 on the second transport member 121 is located within the projection of the sidewall on the second transport member 121 along the second direction, the detection element 132 always detects the distance between the sidewall of the second transport member 121 and the detection element 132. This avoids the detection element 132 misidentifying the distance between the material 3 and the detection element 132 during the process of the material 3 falling from the second receiving cavity to the storage tank 2, thereby affecting the detection accuracy of the detection element 132. Through the technical means of this embodiment, the distance between the detection element 132 and the second transport member 121 can be accurately obtained, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the material discharge end obtained by the detection element 132 moving away from the storage tank 2 along the second direction to the first preset position, thereby improving the flatness and uniformity of the subsequent material distribution in the storage tank 2.

[0081] In some embodiments, the control mechanism is also electrically connected to the second transport member 121. The fabric feeding device 1 is also provided with a second preset position; the discharge end moves to the second preset position along the second direction towards the storage tank 2, and the control mechanism is used to control the second transport member 121 to move along the second direction away from the storage tank 2. Wherein, the distance between the first preset position and the detection mechanism 13 is greater than the distance between the second preset position and the detection mechanism 13.

[0082] In this way, by pre-setting the second preset position, the second transport component 121 can be controlled to continue feeding material along the second direction towards the storage cabinet 2 after the material is laid, and then the direction can be reversed so that the material is laid along the second direction away from the storage cabinet 2. This makes it easier to control the movement process of the second transport component 121 and facilitates the operation of the operator.

[0083] In some embodiments, the fabric feeding device 1 is further provided with a third preset position; the discharge end moves to the third preset position along the second direction away from the storage tank 2, and the control mechanism is used to control the second transport component 121 to move along the second direction toward the storage tank 2. The distance between the first preset position and the detection mechanism 13 is less than the distance between the third preset position and the detection mechanism 13.

[0084] In this way, by pre-setting a third preset position, the second transport component 121 can be controlled to continue feeding material along the second direction away from the storage cabinet 2 after the material is laid, and then the direction can be reversed so that the second transport component 121 continues to feed material along the second direction closer to the storage cabinet 2. This makes it easier to control the movement process of the second transport component 121 and facilitates the operation of the operator.

[0085] In some embodiments, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0086] In this way, it can be ensured that the material 3 does not shift in position during the entire process of the first conveyor 112 transferring the material 3 in the first accommodating cavity to the second accommodating cavity and the second conveyor 122 transferring the material 3 in the second accommodating cavity to the storage cabinet 2, thereby improving the flatness of the material in the storage cabinet 2.

[0087] In some embodiments, the storage cabinet 2 extends in the same direction as the second direction.

[0088] In this way, it can be ensured that the material 3 does not shift in position during the process of the second conveyor 122 transferring the material 3 in the second accommodating cavity to the storage cabinet 2, thereby improving the flatness of the material in the storage cabinet 2.

[0089] In some embodiments, the second transport component 121 and the storage cabinet 2 are spaced apart along a third direction. This third direction intersects both the first and second directions.

[0090] Thus, since the second transport component 121 and the storage cabinet 2 are spaced apart along a third direction, the material 3 can be prevented from accumulating between the second transport component 121 and the storage cabinet 2 during the process of the second conveyor 122 transferring the material 3 in the second accommodating cavity to the storage cabinet 2. This ensures the smooth distribution of the material 3 between the second transport component 121 and the storage cabinet 2, thereby guaranteeing the smooth distribution of the material.

[0091] In some embodiments, the first transport member 111 and the second transport member 121 are spaced apart along a third direction. This third direction intersects both the first and second directions.

[0092] Thus, since the first transport member 111 and the second transport member 121 are spaced apart along a third direction, the material 3 can be prevented from accumulating between the first transport member 111 and the second transport member 121 during the process of the first transport member 112 transferring the material 3 in the first accommodating cavity to the second accommodating cavity. This ensures the smooth distribution of the material 3 between the first transport member 111 and the second transport member 121, thereby guaranteeing the smooth distribution of the material.
