Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cigarette processing technology, and in particular to a filter rod segment cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] When determining the moisture content of cigarette filter rods, the filter rods need to be cut into 1cm segments as samples for testing. Currently, the traditional cutting method is to manually cut the filter rods with scissors. However, the cutting efficiency is low, and the filter rods are easily cut into multiple segments of different lengths, resulting in poor accuracy and affecting the moisture content measurement results.

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, existing technology provides a cutting device that involves lowering the hopper front baffle, raising the hopper bottom plate to tilt it, causing the front ends of the filter rods to press against the hopper front baffle due to gravity, and then lowering the hopper bottom plate to align the front ends of the filter rod assembly. A push rod is pushed forward to the baffle to confirm the cutting length, and a pressure plate is used to clamp the rods. Driven by a displacement motor, the rods move to the right and are cut by a saw. However, when cutting filter rod assemblies of different numbers or diameters, it is impossible to place them on the hopper bottom plate for cutting. Furthermore, the cut filter rod segments are scattered on the bottom plate and on the ground, requiring operators to manually pick up the fallen segments, which is cumbersome.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a filter rod segmentation and cutting device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, 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. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0040] like Figures 1-2 As shown, in this embodiment, the filter rod segment cutting device includes a base 1, a clamping assembly 2, a baffle 3, a cutter 4, and a protective plate 5. The clamping assembly 2 includes a fixed plate 21, an adjusting plate 22, and a locking member 23. The fixed plate 21 is fixedly mounted on the base 1, and the adjusting plate 22 is movably mounted on the base 1, allowing it to move closer to or further away from the fixed plate 21 to clamp different numbers and specifications of filter rods 100. The locking member 23 connects the adjusting plate 22 and the base 1, securing the adjusting plate 22 to the base 1. The baffle 3 is fixedly mounted on the base 1 and abuts against the filter rods 100. The cutter 4 is mounted on the base 1 and cuts the filter rods 100. The protective plate 5 is located at the edge of the base 1 and prevents filter rod segments from falling off.

[0041] The fixing plate 21 is fixedly installed on the base 1 by bolts. The adjusting plate 22 is located on the base 1 and is parallel to and spaced apart from the fixing plate 21, so that there is a receiving area between the adjusting plate 22 and the fixing plate 21. The receiving area is used to receive the filter rods 100 to be cut. The base 1 is provided with a sliding groove. The adjusting plate 22 can slide on the base 1 through the sliding groove and move closer to or further away from the fixing plate 21, thereby adjusting the width of the receiving area to accommodate filter rods 100 of different diameters or the number of filter rods 100. It has a wide range of applications. That is, when the number of filter rods 100 is constant, when the receiving area accommodates filter rods 100 with a large diameter, the adjusting plate 22 needs to move away from the fixing plate 21 to increase the width of the receiving area. When the receiving area accommodates filter rods 100 with a small diameter, the adjusting plate 22 needs to move closer to the fixing plate 21 to decrease the width of the receiving area. This allows the fixing plate 21 and the adjusting plate 22 to abut against the two sides of the filter rod group arranged side by side. Multiple filter rods arranged side by side are combined into a filter rod group. The filter rod group can be arranged in a single row or multiple rows stacked. The locking element 23 is configured as a locking nut, which is fixedly inserted through the adjusting plate 22 and the base 1 to keep the adjusting plate 22 fixed relative to the base 1. This ensures that the distance between the adjusting plate 22 and the fixed plate 21 remains constant, preventing the adjusting element from sliding and causing the filter rod assembly to loosen or be squeezed, thus affecting the cutting effect of the filter rod 100. Optionally, the locking element 23 can also be configured as a locking clamp, which clamps the adjusting plate 22 and the base 1 to keep the adjusting element fixed relative to the base 1. Baffle 3 is bolted to base 1. Located at the end of filter rod 100 to be cut, baffle 3 applies external force to the other end of filter rod 100. Pushing the filter rod assembly with one hand causes multiple filter rods 100 to abut against baffle 3, ensuring the ends of the multiple filter rods 100 are aligned and the cut filter rod segments are of uniform length. The other hand pushes cutting machine 4 to cut the filter rod 100 into segments. The cutting direction of the cutting blade of cutting machine 4 is perpendicular to the length direction of the filter rod 100. Cutting machine 4 reciprocates, cutting the filter rod 100 multiple times, resulting in several filter rod segments. Protective plate 5 is bolted to base 1. Located on the edge of the base plate near cutting machine 4, protective plate 5 acts as a barrier, preventing the cut filter rod segments from falling off base 1 and facilitating the collection of multiple filter rod segments.

[0042] The working process of the filter rod segment cutting device is as follows: First, multiple filter rods 100 arranged side by side are placed in the receiving area between the fixed plate 21 and the adjusting plate 22. According to the total width of the filter rod group, the adjusting plate 22 is pushed and pulled, and the adjusting plate 22 slides relative to the base 1, so that the adjusting plate 22 and the fixed plate 21 respectively contact the two sides of the filter rod group, that is, the distance between the adjusting plate 22 and the fixed plate 21 is equal to the total width of the filter rod group. Then, one hand pushes one end of the filter rod group, and the other end of the filter rod group can abut against the baffle 3, so that the ends of the filter rod group are flush. The other hand pushes the cutting machine 4 to cut the filter rod group into filter rod segments. The cutting machine 4 reciprocates to cut the filter rod 100 multiple times, and the filter rod 100 is cut into several filter rod segments, replacing the original manual cutting method and improving the cutting efficiency and accuracy of the filter rod 100.

[0043] Continue to refer to Figures 1-2 The adjusting plate 22 has an adjusting hole 221, which is elongated. The base 1 has a connecting hole. The locking member 23 slides through the adjusting hole 221 and is fixedly connected to the connecting hole. The adjusting hole 221 is a slotted hole. The locking member 23 passes through the adjusting hole 221 of the adjusting plate 22 and is connected to the connecting hole of the base 1. When the locking member 23 is not tightened, that is, the screw end of the locking member 23 is separated from the end face of the adjusting plate 22. The adjusting plate 22 can slide relative to the locking member 23 on the base 1 to adjust the distance between the fixing plate 21 and the adjusting plate 22. After adjusting the distance, the locking member 23 is screwed so that the screw end of the locking member 23 abuts against the end face of the adjusting plate 22. The adjusting plate 22 presses against the end face of the base 1 and is fixed relative to the base 1, preventing the adjusting member from sliding and causing the filter rod assembly to loosen or be squeezed, thereby affecting the cutting effect of the filter rod 100.

[0044] Continue to refer to Figures 1-2The cutting machine 4 is equipped with a guide plate 6, and the base 1 is also provided with a cutting groove 11. The guide plate 6 is located in the cutting groove 11 and can slide along the extension direction of the cutting groove 11. The guide plate 6 is fixedly installed on the housing of the cutting machine 4 by screws. The guide plate 6, the cutting blade of the cutting machine 4, and the cutting groove 11 are all in the same vertical plane, that is, the guide plate 6 and the cutting blade of the cutting machine 4 are all located in the cutting groove 11. When the operator starts and pushes the cutting machine 4, the guide plate 6 slides in the cutting groove 11 along the extension direction of the cutting groove 11. Under the guidance of the guide plate 6, the cutting blade of the cutting machine 4 can cut the filter rods 100 along the extension direction of the cutting groove 11, ensuring that the cut surfaces of multiple filter rods 100 are flush and the cutting accuracy is high. Preferably, the inner walls on both sides of the cutting groove 11 are provided with limiting grooves 12, and the guide plate 6 is provided with limiting members 61. The limiting members 61 are located in the limiting grooves 12 and can slide along the length direction of the cutting groove 11. The guide plate 6, through the sliding cooperation between the limiting member 61 and the limiting groove 12, further guides the guide plate 6 and the cutting machine 4, avoiding uneven cutting surfaces between multiple filter rods 100 during the cutting process of manually operating the cutting machine 4.

[0045] Continue to refer to Figures 1-2 The baffle 3 is equipped with a snap-fit ​​component 31, and the base 1 is also provided with a snap-fit ​​groove 13. The snap-fit ​​component 31 snaps into the snap-fit ​​groove 13 and can slide relative to the snap-fit ​​groove 13 to adjust the distance between the baffle 3 and the cutting groove 11. The snap-fit ​​component 31 is integrally formed and protrudes from the bottom of the baffle 3. The base 1 is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove 13 corresponding to the size of the snap-fit ​​component 31, and the snap-fit ​​component 31 can snap into the snap-fit ​​groove 13. According to the length cutting requirements of the filter rod segment, the snap-fit ​​component 31 slides relative to the snap-fit ​​groove 13 to adjust the distance between the baffle 3 and the cutting groove 11, so as to cut the required filter rod segment. Under the action of a large external force, the snap-fit ​​component 31 can slide along its length direction in the snap-fit ​​groove 13. When the baffle 3 is released, the snap-fit ​​component 31 can be fixed in the snap-fit ​​groove 13, and the baffle 3 will not separate from the base 1. Preferably, after the position of the baffle 3 relative to the base 1 is adjusted, the locking nut is inserted through the mounting hole of the baffle 3 and fixedly connected to the base 1 to ensure the stability of the baffle 3 relative to the base 1.

[0046] Continue to refer to Figures 1-2The filter rod segmentation and cutting device also includes a pressure plate 7, which is disposed on the base 1 and is used to press the filter rod 100 against the base 1. The pressure plate 7 has a U-shaped structure, and includes a pressing part 71 and a fixing part 72. The fixing part 72 is fixedly disposed on the base 1, and the pressing part 71 is detachably connected to the fixing part 72. The pressing part 71 is used to press the filter rod 100. There are two fixing parts 72, which are spaced apart and are fixedly installed on the base 1 by bolts. The pressing part 71 is located between the two fixing parts 72 and is detachably connected to the fixing part 72 by bolts. When replacing filter rods 100 with different diameter specifications, the larger the diameter of the filter rod 100, the higher the height of the filter rod 100 in the receiving area relative to the base 1; the smaller the diameter of the filter rod 100, the lower the height of the filter rod 100 in the receiving area relative to the base 1. By replacing different crimping parts 71, the groove depth of the crimping part 71 is matched with the size of the filter rod 100, that is, the bottom of the groove of the crimping part 71 can contact the outer peripheral surface of the filter rod 100, ensuring that replacing different crimping parts 71 can play a limiting role for filter rod assemblies of different sizes.

[0047] Continue to refer to Figures 1-2 The filter rod segment cutting device also includes a push plate 8, which is located between the fixed plate 21 and the adjusting plate 22. The push plate 8 is slidably disposed on the base 1 and can push the filter rods 100 so that the ends of the filter rods 100 abut against the baffle 3. The operator pushes one end of the filter rod assembly through the push plate 8. During the pushing process, the contact surfaces between the multiple filter rods 100 and the push plate 8 are all flush, and the filter rod assembly can abut against the baffle 3, so that the other ends of the multiple filter rods 100 are flush, thereby ensuring that the cut filter rod segments are of uniform length.

[0048] Continue to refer to Figures 1-2 The filter rod segment cutting device also includes a collection box. The base 1 has a guide groove 14, and the collection box is located at the outlet end of the guide groove 14. The guide groove 14 is used to guide the filter rod segments on the base 1 into the collection box. The end face of the guide groove 14 is inclined downward relative to the end face of the base 1. The cutting machine 4 reciprocates to cut the filter rod 100 multiple times, and the filter rod 100 is cut into several filter rod segments. The filter rod segments on the base 1 are pushed into the guide groove 14 by the push plate 8, scraper, or by hand. Due to the action of the guard plate 5, the filter rod segments on the base 1 will not fall off the base 1. Multiple filter rod segments enter the collection box through the guide groove 14 for collection. The guide groove 14 plays a guiding role.
