[0002] In tobacco processing production lines, flow control typically employs a constant flow feeding control system consisting of a control-type electronic belt scale, a feeder, and a metering tube. During tobacco processing, materials such as tobacco shreds or leaves are transported by the feeder's lifting belt from the hopper into the metering tube. The metering tube is vertically connected to the hopper, and optical gratings are installed on the acrylic glass on both sides. Height-adjustable discharge rollers are installed at the front plate outlet of the metering tube and in the material channel between the metering tube and the electronic belt scale, which control the incoming flow rate and ensure smooth material transport.
[0003] CN220844299U discloses a metering tube and a tobacco conveying system. The metering tube in this application includes a tube body and an adjusting assembly. The adjusting assembly includes a roller, an adjusting seat, and a locking element. The adjusting seat is located at the outlet of the tube body and is rotatably connected to the roller. The adjusting seat has an elongated hole extending along the height of the tube body. The locking element passes through the elongated hole and the tube body and can lock or unlock the relative position of the adjusting seat and the tube body. The roller is an electric roller. Although this patent achieves stable material flow, when materials with different flow requirements are changed on the production line, the fixed installation method between the roller and the adjusting seat in the above technical solution will have the following problems: 1. The gap between the roller and the adjusting seat is too large, causing material to overflow in the gap, resulting in roller jamming; 2.

[0035] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0036] In existing technology, tobacco conveying systems include a metering tube and an electronic belt conveyor. Generally, before entering the main equipment for further processing, the material is buffered by a cabinet-type feeder. Then, the material is conveyed to the metering tube by the bottom belt and the lifting belt. From there, it falls onto the electronic belt conveyor, and is then transported into the main equipment by a discharge roller located at the bottom of the tube, working in conjunction with the electronic belt conveyor. In existing technology, the discharge roller is mounted on the tube via a mounting bracket, with a gap between the bracket and the roller. However, if the gap is too large, material will overflow; if the gap is too small, friction will occur between the roller and the adjusting seat.
[0037] To solve the above problems, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a metering tube, including: a tube body 1, a mounting frame 2, a discharge roller 3, and a first adjusting mechanism 4. The upper end of the tube body 1 is provided with a feed inlet 11, the lower end of the tube body 1 is provided with a discharge outlet 12, and the bottom sidewall of the tube body 1 is provided with a discharge outlet along a first direction (e.g., ...). Figure 1 and Figure 3 An installation port 13 extends in the X direction (as shown). A mounting bracket 2 is connected to the tube body 1, and the mounting bracket 2 covers at least part of the installation port 13. A discharge roller 3 extends in the X direction, which is perpendicular to the extension direction of the tube body 1. A support 31 is provided at each end of the discharge roller 3, and the support 31 is connected to the mounting bracket 2. The discharge roller 3 is mounted on the support 31 and can rotate around its own axis. The lower edge of the mounting bracket 2 extending in the X direction is the target edge 21, and there is a certain gap between the circumferential surface of the discharge roller 3 and the target edge 21. Exemplarily, the discharge roller 3 is an electric roller, which includes a motor and a roller body, with the motor located inside the roller body. A first adjustment mechanism 4 is located between the support 31 and the mounting bracket 2, and the first adjustment mechanism 4 is used to adjust the discharge roller 3 in a second direction (as shown). Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The relative position between the support 31 and the mounting bracket 2 (shown in the Y direction) is adjusted to change the size of the gap; the Y direction is perpendicular to the X direction and the extension direction of the pipe body.
[0038] The metering tube of this invention, through the first adjustment mechanism 4, can adjust the relative position between the discharge roller 3 and the mounting frame 2 along the Y direction. This allows operators to flexibly adjust the gap between the discharge roller 3 and the target edge 21 according to the production flow requirements of different materials and the specific production conditions on site. Using the metering tube provided in this application, the gap between the discharge roller 3 and the mounting frame 2 can be flexibly changed according to different material flow rates. This prevents the discharge roller 3 from jamming due to an excessively large gap, and prevents friction between the discharge roller 3 and the mounting frame 2 due to an excessively small gap. This achieves the function of stabilizing different material flow rates, ensuring the continuity of the production process, and improving production efficiency.
[0039] In some implementations, reference Figure 3 The first adjustment mechanism 4 includes a first adjustment bolt 41 and a first strip hole 42 extending along the Y direction; the first strip hole 42 is provided on the mounting bracket 2, and the first adjustment bolt 41 passes through the first strip hole 42 and is threadedly connected to the support 31; or, the first strip hole 42 is provided on the support 31, and the first adjustment bolt 41 passes through the first strip hole 42 and is threadedly connected to the mounting bracket 2.
[0040] Specifically, the first adjusting mechanism 4 includes a first adjusting bolt 41 and a first strip-shaped hole 42 extending along the Y direction. The first strip-shaped hole 42 can be positioned in, but is not limited to, two ways: one is to place the first strip-shaped hole 42 on the mounting frame 2, in which case the first adjusting bolt 41 passes through the first strip-shaped hole 42 and is threadedly connected to the support 31; the other is to place the first strip-shaped hole 42 on the support 31, and the first adjusting bolt 41 passes through the first strip-shaped hole 42 and is threadedly connected to the mounting frame 2. When it is necessary to adjust the gap between the discharge roller 3 and the mounting frame 2 along the Y direction, the operator only needs to loosen the first adjusting bolt 41, and then move the support 31 along the Y direction within the range of the first strip-shaped hole 42. According to actual needs, after adjusting the support 31 to a suitable position, the first adjusting bolt 41 is tightened to firmly fix the support 31 to the mounting frame 2, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the gap size to meet the conveying requirements of different materials.
[0041] In some implementations, reference Figure 3 The mounting frame 2 includes an adjusting frame 22, an adjusting plate 23, and a second adjusting mechanism 24. The adjusting frame 22 is connected to the pipe body 1 and the support 31. The adjusting plate 23 is located below the adjusting frame 22 and is connected to the adjusting frame 22, with the target edge 21 being the lower edge of the adjusting plate 23.
[0042] The second adjustment mechanism 24 is located between the adjustment frame 22 and the pipe body 1. The second adjustment mechanism 24 is used to adjust the relative position between the adjustment frame 22 and the pipe body 1 along the extension direction of the pipe body 1 to adapt to the flow requirements of different materials and different installation environments.
[0043] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the second adjusting mechanism 24 includes a second adjusting bolt 241 and a second strip-shaped hole 242 extending along the extension direction of the tube body 1. The second strip-shaped hole 242 can be positioned in two ways, including but not limited to: one is that the second strip-shaped hole 242 is located on the tube body 1, in which case the second adjusting bolt 241 passes through the second strip-shaped hole 242 and is threadedly connected to the adjusting frame 22; the other is that the second strip-shaped hole 242 is located on the adjusting frame 22, and the second adjusting bolt 241 passes through the second strip-shaped hole 242 and is threadedly connected to the tube body 1. When it is necessary to adjust the relative position of the discharge roller 3 along the extension direction of the tube body 1, the operator only needs to loosen the second adjusting bolt 241, and then move the adjusting frame 22 within the range of the second strip hole 242 along the extension direction of the tube body 1. According to the actual needs, after adjusting the adjusting frame 22 to a suitable position, tighten the second adjusting bolt 241 to fix the adjusting frame 22 on the tube body 1, thereby realizing the position adjustment of the adjusting frame 22, thus realizing the position adjustment of the discharge roller 3 along the extension direction of the tube body 1, that is, changing the distance between the discharge roller 3 and the upper surface of the electronic belt scale conveyor belt 6, thereby realizing the adjustment of the material discharge height between the discharge roller 3 and the electronic belt scale conveyor belt 6 to meet the production requirements of different material flow rates.
[0044] Furthermore, to further optimize the gap between the discharge roller 3 and the mounting bracket 2 along the extension direction of the tube body 1, and to improve the accuracy and stability of material discharge, in some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a third adjustment mechanism 5 is provided between the adjustment plate 23 and the adjustment frame 22. The third adjustment mechanism 5 is used to adjust the relative position between the adjustment plate 23 and the adjustment frame 22 along the extension direction of the tube body 1.
[0045] In some implementations, such as Figure 3 As shown, the third adjustment mechanism 5 includes a third adjusting bolt 51 and a third slotted hole 52. The third slotted hole 52 can be positioned in two ways, including but not limited to: one where the third slotted hole 52 is located on the adjustment plate 23, in which case the third adjusting bolt 51 passes through the third slotted hole 52 and is threadedly connected to the adjustment frame 22; the other where the third slotted hole 52 is located on the adjustment frame 22, and the third adjusting bolt 51 passes through the third slotted hole 52 and is threadedly connected to the adjustment plate 23. When it is necessary to adjust the gap between the discharge roller 3 and the mounting frame 2 along the extension direction of the pipe body 1, the operator only needs to loosen the third adjusting bolt 51, and then move the adjustment plate 23 within the range of the third slotted hole 52 along the extension direction of the pipe body 1, thereby achieving fine-tuning of the position of the adjustment plate 23, and thus adjusting the gap between the target edge 21 and the discharge roller 3 along the extension direction of the pipe body 1 to meet the conveying requirements of different materials.
[0046] In some implementations, reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 Each side of the upper edge of the adjusting frame 22 is provided with a first ear 221, and each side of the upper edge of the adjusting plate 23 is provided with a second ear 231. The first ear 221 and the second ear 231 are perpendicular to the extension direction of the tube body 1. The positions of the two second ears 231 correspond one-to-one with the positions of the two first ears 221. A fourth adjusting bolt 54 extending along the extension direction of the tube body 1 is provided between the corresponding first ears 221 and second ears 231. The fourth adjusting bolt 54 passes through the first ears 221 and the second ears 231. The head of the fourth adjusting bolt 54 is located above the first ear 221, and the lower end of the fourth adjusting bolt 54 is provided with a nut that is threadedly connected to the fourth adjusting bolt 54.
[0047] Specifically, when it is necessary to adjust the gap between the discharge roller 3 and the mounting bracket 2 along the extension direction of the tube body 1, the operator first needs to loosen the third adjusting bolt 51, and then rotate the nut connected to the fourth adjusting bolt 54. Due to the threaded connection of the nut, the nut will move up and down along the fourth adjusting bolt 54, thereby causing relative movement between the first ear 221 and the second ear 231. This will cause the adjusting plate 23 to move within the range of the third strip hole 52 along the extension direction of the tube body 1, thereby realizing the movement of the adjusting plate 23 along the extension direction of the tube body 1 and adjusting the gap between the target edge 21 and the discharge roller 3 along the extension direction of the tube body 1 to meet the conveying requirements of different materials.
[0048] Optionally, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The adjusting plate 23 includes a plate body 232 and a bending guide plate 233 disposed on the lower edge of the plate body 232. The bending guide plate 233 is bent toward the side near the discharge roller 3, and the edge of the bending guide plate 233 on the side near the discharge roller 3 is the target edge 21. For example, as... Figure 5 As shown, the tilt angle α of the bending guide plate 233 relative to the Y direction is 10°-20°. (Reference) Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 This application utilizes a bending guide plate 233 to guide the material. When the material falls onto the electronic belt scale conveyor belt 6, it accumulates to a certain height at the discharge port 12. Therefore, the upper surface of the material contacts the lower surface of the bending guide plate 233 during conveying. As the material follows the electronic belt scale conveyor belt 6 along its conveying direction, the bending guide plate 233 guides the material, reducing resistance and thus reducing accumulation and blockage at the discharge port 12, thereby improving the conveying efficiency.
[0049] Based on the same concept, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model also provides a tobacco conveying system, including an electronic belt scale conveyor belt 6 and a metering tube provided in any of the above embodiments. The electronic belt scale conveyor belt 6 is located below the discharge roller 3 and is used to receive and convey the material discharged from the metering tube. The discharge port 12 of the tube body 1 is connected to the electronic belt scale conveyor belt 6 to ensure that the material can smoothly enter the electronic belt scale conveyor belt 6.
[0050] Specifically, during the tobacco conveying process, the material enters from the feed inlet 11 of the tube body 1, passes through the inner cavity of the tube body 1, and is discharged from the discharge outlet 12, falling onto the electronic belt scale conveyor belt 6. To ensure that the material can be conveyed evenly and stably, in some embodiments, the rotational linear speed of the discharge roller 3 is consistent with the belt speed of the electronic belt scale conveyor belt 6, so that the upper and lower layers of the material are subjected to the same force direction and speed. This ensures that when the material enters the precision metering equipment through a narrow space, the upper and lower layers are subjected to equal and consistent working loads within a certain cross-section, effectively eliminating the unevenness of the material surface. The material passing through the weighing area of the electronic belt scale is uniform and has a flat surface, improving the control accuracy of the tobacco leaf or tobacco shred material flow rate.
[0051] Thus, by setting up the first adjusting mechanism 4, the third adjusting mechanism 5, the adjusting frame 22, the adjusting plate 23, and the fourth adjusting bolt 54, the operator can flexibly adjust the gap between the discharge roller 3 and the target edge 21 according to factors such as the type of material and conveying requirements. Furthermore, by setting up the second adjusting mechanism 24, the distance between the discharge roller 3 and the electronic belt scale conveyor belt 6 can be adjusted to meet different production needs.
[0052] It should be noted that in the examples and description of this utility model, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one" does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes the element.
[0053] Although the present invention has been illustrated and described with reference to certain preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the above description is a further detailed explanation of the present invention in conjunction with specific embodiments, and should not be construed as limiting the specific implementation of the present invention to these descriptions.
