Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cigarette detection technology, and in particular to a non-destructive cigarette diameter measuring device. Background Technology

[0002] In the cigarette production process, to ensure the quality of the produced cigarettes, it is necessary to conduct physical property tests on the produced cigarettes, such as testing the diameter of the produced cigarettes. Currently, the method for testing whether the diameter of the cigarettes is qualified is to first make several through holes of different diameters in a testing mold, and then pass the cigarettes to be tested through the different through holes in the testing mold one by one. When the cigarette to be tested is exactly in or placed in the testing through hole, the diameter of the testing through hole matches the diameter of the cigarette to be tested, and the diameter of the cigarette is indirectly judged by the diameter of the testing through hole. Although this method can detect the diameter of the cigarettes, when the cigarettes to be tested pass through the testing through holes, due to uneven force on the cigarettes or the direction of the cigarettes being not on the same horizontal line by the testers, some of the cigarettes to be tested will break, resulting in waste of cigarette raw materials.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the structure and method of detecting cigarette diameter in order to solve the problem that some cigarettes break during the current detection process, which involves passing the cigarette through the detection hole. This is because uneven force on the cigarette or the direction in which the tester pushes the cigarette is not on the same horizontal line. Utility Model Content

[0015] Furthermore, a first magnetic element is provided on the inner side of the first connecting block, and the first magnetic element is magnetically attracted to the iron strip on the side wall of the second connecting block. The first magnetic element is a first magnet.

[0016] Furthermore, the movable seat includes a cylindrical base and a spindle-shaped block; one end of the cylindrical base near the L-shaped base corresponds to one end of the micrometer head, the cylindrical base is located below the two cigarette diameter measuring columns, the cylindrical base and the L-shaped base are slidably connected at a first part, one end of the cylindrical base is connected to one end of the spindle-shaped block, and the spindle-shaped block is located between the first connecting block and the second connecting block and abuts against the side walls of both.

During this reverse movement, the cigarette diameter measuring columns on the first and second movable components are also magnetically attached. The cigarette diameter measuring column also moves in the opposite direction. The cigarette to be tested, which was previously placed between the two cigarette diameter measuring columns, slowly descends as the distance between the two columns gradually increases. When the cigarette to be tested just falls from the distance between the two cigarette diameter measuring columns, the micrometer head is stopped from being turned and the reading of the corresponding scale on the micrometer head is recorded. Then, the reading of the first reading is subtracted from the second reading to obtain the diameter of the cigarette to be tested. In this way, it is not necessary to test the cigarette to be tested through the detection through hole as in the traditional method. This solves the problem that some cigarettes break during the current method of testing the diameter of cigarettes by passing them through the detection through hole, due to uneven force on the cigarette or the direction of the cigarette being pushed by the tester not being on the same horizontal line.

Detailed Implementation

[0032] 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.

[0033] Example

[0034] Currently, the method for testing the diameter of cigarettes generally involves creating several through holes of varying diameters in a testing mold. Cigarettes of the diameter to be tested are then passed through these holes one by one. When a cigarette falls exactly into a hole, the diameter of that hole is considered to match the diameter of the cigarette. This allows for indirect determination of the cigarette's diameter by comparing the diameter of the through holes with the diameter of the cigarette. While this method can detect the cigarette's diameter, uneven force on the cigarette or the direction in which the tester pushes the cigarette can cause some cigarettes to break as they pass through the through holes, resulting in a waste of cigarette material.

[0035] Therefore, this application proposes a non-destructive cigarette diameter measuring device to solve the problem that in existing methods of measuring cigarette diameter, some cigarettes break during the process of passing the cigarette to be tested through the detection hole due to uneven force on the cigarette or the direction in which the tester pushes the cigarette not on the same horizontal line.

[0036] Specifically, in its first aspect, this application proposes a non-destructive cigarette diameter measuring device; please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 and Figure 2A non-destructive cigarette diameter measuring device includes a micrometer head 1, a base 2, a movable seat 3, a cigarette measuring placement part 4, and a first magnetic element 10. The micrometer head 1 is threadedly connected to one end of the base 2. The top of the base 2 is slidably connected to the bottom of the movable seat 3. The end away from the micrometer head 1 corresponds to one side wall of the movable seat 3. The cigarette measuring placement part 4 includes a first movable part 5 and a second movable part 6. A shuttle-shaped part 7 at one end of the movable seat 3 is located between the first movable part 5 and the second movable part 6 and abuts against the side walls of both. The bottoms of the first movable part 5 and the second movable part 6 are slidably connected to the top of the movable seat 3, respectively. A region 9 for measuring the cigarette diameter is defined between the cigarette diameter measuring columns 8 on the first movable part 5 and the second movable part 6. The first magnetic element 10 is disposed on the side wall of the first movable part 5, and the first magnetic element 10 on the side wall of the first movable part 5 is magnetically attracted to the second movable part 6.

[0037] In practical applications, when testing the diameter of a cigarette, the cigarette to be tested is first placed in the area 9 defined between the cigarette diameter measuring column 8 on the first moving part 5 and the cigarette diameter measuring column 8 on the second moving part 6, and the reading corresponding to the scale on the micrometer head 1 is recorded. Then, the micrometer head 1 is turned, and one end of the micrometer head 1 moves toward the side wall of the moving base 3, indirectly causing the shuttle-shaped part 7 at one end of the moving base 3 to push the first moving part 5 and the second moving part 6, which are magnetically attracted by the first magnetic element 10, apart in the opposite direction. During the reverse movement of the first moving part 5 and the second moving part 6, the cigarette diameter measuring column 8 on the first moving part 5 and the other cigarette diameter measuring column 8 on the second moving part 6 also move in the opposite direction. The cigarette to be tested, pre-placed between the two cigarette diameter measuring columns 8, slowly descends as the distance between the two columns gradually increases. When the cigarette just falls from the distance between the two columns 8, the micrometer head 1 is stopped from being turned further and the reading of the corresponding scale on the micrometer head 1 is recorded. Then, the reading of the first reading is subtracted from the second reading to obtain the diameter of the cigarette to be tested. In this way, it is not necessary to pass the cigarette to be tested through the detection through hole as in the traditional method. This solves the problem that when testing the diameter of cigarettes, some cigarettes break during the testing process due to uneven force on the cigarette or the direction of the cigarette being pushed by the tester not being on the same horizontal line.

The end of a part of the second part 15 is restricted by a first limiting block, which moves against the first slider 16 to prevent the first slider 16 from slipping off from another part of the second part 15.

[0040] It should be noted that the second moving part 6 used to drive the other cigarette diameter measuring column 8 includes a second slider 18 and a second connecting block 19; the bottom of the second slider 18 is slidably connected to another part of the second part 15 of the T-shaped base 12, the top of the second slider 18 is connected to the bottom of the second connecting block 19, and the other cigarette diameter measuring column 8 is detachably mounted on the side wall of the second connecting block 19 near the first connecting block 17. The area for measuring the cigarette diameter is defined between the cigarette diameter measuring column 8 on the side wall of the second connecting block 19 and the other cigarette diameter measuring column 8 on the side wall of the first connecting block 17; wherein, the end of the other part of the second part 15 is restricted by a second limiting block, and the second limiting block is in contact with the second slider 18 to prevent the second slider 18 from slipping off the other part of the second part 15.

[0041] Among them, the first magnetic element 10, which is used to generate a magnetic attraction between the first moving part 5 and the second moving part 6, is specifically disposed on the inner side wall of the first connecting block 17. The first magnetic element 10 is magnetically attracted to the iron strip on the side wall of the second connecting block 19. The first magnetic element 10 is a first magnet.

[0042] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 and Figure 6The movable base 3 for driving the first movable component 5 and the second movable component 6 includes a cylindrical base 20 and a spindle-shaped block 21. One end of the cylindrical base 20 near the L-shaped base 11 corresponds to one end of the micrometer head 1. The cylindrical base 20 is located below the two cigarette diameter measuring columns 8. The cylindrical base 20 is slidably connected to the first portion 14 of the L-shaped base 11 via a slider. One end of the cylindrical base 20 is connected to one end of the spindle-shaped block 21, which is located between the first connecting block 17 and the second connecting block 19 and abuts against their sidewalls. The T-shaped base 12 has a limiting block 24 at one end of the first portion 14, which is movable and abuts against the slider 25 connected to the bottom of the cylindrical base 20.

[0043] It should be noted that the second magnetic element 22 is disposed on one end of the cylindrical base 20 near the L-shaped base 11.
