AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In filter rod composite molding machines, problems such as missing and clogging are prone to occur during the assembly of filter rod segments, resulting in low production efficiency. Furthermore, the existing mechanical structure cannot effectively monitor and remove defective products.

Method used

The hub wheel with filter rod detection function integrates filter rod anti-clogging sensing components, filter rod missing sensing components, and filter rod length sensing components. It monitors the filter rod transportation process in real time through laser, infrared, photoelectric and other sensing methods, and stops or issues warnings in a timely manner.

🎯Benefits of technology

It enables precise monitoring of the filter rod transportation process, reduces the jamming rate, ensures that the filter rod length meets the requirements, improves production efficiency, and reduces equipment wear.

Abstract

The patent provides a hub wheel and filter rod composite forming machine with filter rod detection function, comprising a hub wheel main body, a filter rod anti-blocking induction assembly, a filter rod missing induction assembly and a filter rod length induction assembly. The three filter rod induction assemblies monitor different transport parts of the hub wheel main body, and the three filter rod induction assemblies work independently in parallel, so that any abnormal signal can independently trigger the control mechanism to stop or alarm, realizing rapid response of multiple fault modes. The patent is different from the anti-blocking design of the traditional mechanical fork structure. Through the synergistic effect of the anti-missing inlet and the anti-blocking outlet, the stable conveying of the filter rod in high-speed circular motion is ensured, and the filter rod sticking rate is greatly reduced. At the same time, a straight pipe joint capable of automatically cleaning the sensor is arranged on the three filter rod induction assemblies, which avoids dust interference with detection accuracy, further prevents blockage and ensures long-term operation reliability.
