Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cigarette box scanning equipment, specifically a scanning device for cigarette boxes entering and leaving the warehouse. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of tobacco packaging production and sales, it is necessary to scan and identify the barcodes of cigarette cartons that are ready for sale. Then, the barcode information is sent back to the cigarette sales system. Furthermore, the QR codes of the small boxes, carton boxes, and cigarette cartons must be conditionally associated. In normal production, existing cigarette production lines all use barcode reading equipment to achieve barcode association.

[0003] However, the entry and exit of existing cigarette boxes are generally carried out inside the factory. In order to ensure the lighting intensity, a certain intensity light source is installed in the factory. The existing barcode reading equipment generally uses its own emitted light source to read the code. When the external light source is too strong, the surface of the cigarette box will reflect light, which will affect the reading effect of the barcode reader. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a barcode scanning device for cigarette box entry and exit, which can shield the barcode reader from strong sunlight to ensure the barcode reading effect.

[0005] Therefore, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A barcode scanning device for cigarette box entry and exit, comprising:

[0007] A base, on which a conveyor belt is installed, and a bracket is fixedly installed on one side of the base. A threaded rod is rotatably connected inside the bracket, and an adjustment frame is threadedly connected to the threaded rod.

[0008] Mounting base, the mounting base is fixedly connected to the adjusting frame, the bottom of the mounting base is fixedly connected to the support column, the bottom end of the support column is integrally fixedly installed with a code reader, and the code reader is located directly above the conveyor belt;

[0009] Multiple light shields are rotatably connected to the top of the support column. Elastic cloth is fixedly connected between adjacent light shields, and connecting rods are hinged to the inner walls of the light shields. A push ring is hinged to the free end of the connecting rod, and an electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the push ring.

[0010] Based on the above technical solution, its operating principle and the resulting technical effects are as follows:

[0011] In practical use, the motor is first started to drive one of the threaded rods to rotate, and the two threaded rods rotate synchronously through the synchronous belt and synchronous pulley. After the threaded rods rotate, the meshing relationship between the threaded rods and the adjusting frame allows them to move up and down effectively, thus facilitating the adjustment of the distance between the barcode reader and the cigarette box according to the actual situation, so that the barcode reader is at an appropriate height, which helps to improve the barcode reading success rate. Then, the conveyor belt is started to transport the cigarette box, and the barcode reader can be used for scanning. However, when the external light intensity is too high, the electric telescopic rod is started to push the push ring upward. When the push ring moves upward, it will drive the four connecting rods upward and deflect, thereby causing the four light shields to unfold and shield the barcode reader from the light. This can effectively reduce the impact of strong external light on the barcode reader's scanning success rate. After the light shields are unfolded, the elastic cloth can also block the gaps that are created without interfering with the unfolding action of the light shields. It is suitable for barcode scanning of cigarette boxes in and out of the factory, and has high practicality.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: the adjustment frame is slidably connected to the inner wall of the bracket, and the inner side wall of the bracket is provided with a sliding groove adapted to the adjustment frame.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured as follows: the number of threaded rods is two, the two threaded rods are connected to the synchronous pulley via a synchronous belt, and a motor is fixedly connected to the top of one of the threaded rods, the motor being mounted on the top of the bracket.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that the center of the push ring has a circular hole adapted to the support column.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: the number of light shields is four, and the four light shields are evenly arranged in a ring around the circular support column.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that the light shield is set as an arc surface, and four light shields are spliced ​​together to form a circle.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention may be further configured such that the outer wall of the elastic fabric is coated with a light-shielding coating.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: the number of electric telescopic rods is two, and the bottom ends of the two electric telescopic rods are fixed to the top of the barcode reader.

[0019] The explanations of the nouns, conjunctions, or adjectives used in the above technical solutions are as follows:

[0020] A fixed connection refers to a connection in which parts or components are fixed in place, with no relative movement between them. These connections are divided into two types: detachable and non-detachable.

[0021] (1) Detachable connections use screws, splines, wedges, etc. to fix parts together. This type of connection can be disassembled during maintenance without damaging the parts. However, the specifications of the connecting parts used must be correct (such as the length of bolts, keys, wedges) and properly tightened.

[0022] (2) Non-removable connections mainly refer to welding, riveting, and tenon joints. Since disassembly requires forging, sawing, or oxy-acetylene cutting for repair or replacement, these parts generally cannot be reused. Furthermore, attention should be paid to process quality, technical inspection, and remedial measures (such as correction and polishing) during connection.

[0023] A movable connection refers to a connection in which parts or components are fixed but have relative motion.

[0024] The above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0025] 1. In this utility model, through the cooperation of structures such as the light shield, push ring, and connecting rod, the light shield can be unfolded when the intensity of the external light source is too strong, so as to achieve light shielding and reduce the impact of strong external light on the scanning success rate of the barcode reader. When the barcode reader's own light source is insufficient, the light shield can be retracted to provide appropriate supplementary light to the barcode reader.

[0026] 2. This utility model, through the cooperation of the threaded rod, motor, adjustment frame and other structures, can adjust the distance between the code reader and the cigarette box according to the actual situation, so that the code reader is at an appropriate height, which can improve the code reading success rate.

[0033] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this disclosure, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments of this utility model and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0034] Based on the concept of this application, combined with Figures 1 to 4 This document describes an embodiment of a barcode scanning device for cigarette boxes entering and leaving a warehouse. Specifically, the barcode scanning device is constructed as an integrated structure, comprising three components: a base 1, a mounting base 6, and a light shield 9. Through the cooperation of the light shield 9, push ring 12, and connecting rod 11, the light shield 9 can be unfolded when the external light source intensity is too strong, achieving light blocking and reducing the impact of strong external light on the barcode reader 8's scanning success rate. Furthermore, when the reader 8's own light source is insufficient, the light shield 9 can be retracted to provide appropriate supplemental lighting. Additionally, through the cooperation of the threaded rod 4, motor 14, and adjusting frame 5, the distance between the reader 8 and the cigarette box can be adjusted according to actual conditions, ensuring the reader 8 is at an appropriate height to improve the barcode scanning success rate.

[0035] Combination Figures 1-4 As shown, the present invention provides a barcode scanning device for cigarette box entry and exit, comprising:

[0036] A base 1 is provided, a conveyor belt 2 is installed on the base 1, a bracket 3 is fixedly installed on one side of the base 1, a threaded rod 4 is rotatably connected inside the bracket 3, and an adjustment frame 5 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 4.

[0037] Mounting base 6 is fixedly connected to the adjusting frame 5. A support column 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting base 6. A barcode reader 8 is integrally fixedly installed at the bottom of the support column 7, and the barcode reader 8 is located directly above the conveyor belt 2.

[0038] Multiple light shields 9 are rotatably connected to the top of the support column 7. An elastic cloth 10 is fixedly connected between adjacent light shields 9, and a connecting rod 11 is hinged to the inner wall of the light shield 9. A push ring 12 is hinged to the free end of the connecting rod 11, and an electric telescopic rod 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the push ring 12.

[0039] In this embodiment, the adjustment frame 5 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the bracket 3. The inner side wall of the bracket 3 is provided with a sliding groove that matches the adjustment frame 5. The threaded rod 4 is rotatably connected to the inside of the bracket 3 through a bearing. The adjustment frame 5 moves vertically along the sliding groove.

[0040] Furthermore, there are two threaded rods 4, which are connected to a synchronous belt and a synchronous pulley. A motor 14 is fixedly connected to the top of one of the threaded rods 4. The motor 14 is installed on the top of the bracket 3. Starting the motor 14 will drive one of the threaded rods 4 to rotate, and the two threaded rods 4 will rotate synchronously through the synchronous belt and the synchronous pulley. After the threaded rod 4 rotates, the meshing relationship between the threaded rod 4 and the adjusting frame 5 can drive it to move up and down effectively, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the distance between the code reader 8 and the cigarette box according to the actual situation, thereby improving the code reading success rate.

[0041] Regarding the technical solution of this embodiment, the center of the push ring 12 is provided with a circular hole that matches the support column 7. There are four connecting rods 11, which are arranged in a ring shape and hinged to the outer surface of the push ring 12. Pushing the push ring 12 to move it upward along the support column 7 can drive the connecting rods 11 to move and deflect, thereby enabling the light shield 9 to unfold or retract.

[0042] Regarding the technical solution of this embodiment, there are four light shields 9. The four light shields 9 are evenly arranged in a ring around the circular support column 7, and all four light shields 9 are set as arc surfaces. The four light shields 9 are spliced ​​together to form a circle. In actual use, the entry and exit of cigarette boxes are carried out in the factory. In order to ensure the lighting intensity, a light source of a certain intensity will be installed in the factory. Existing barcode reading devices generally use their own emitted light source to read the code. However, when the external light source is too strong, the surface of the cigarette box will reflect light, affecting the reading effect of the barcode reader 8. Therefore, in this embodiment, after the light shields 9 are unfolded, they can shield the barcode reader 8, which can reduce the impact of strong external light on the barcode reader 8's scanning success rate. When the light shields 9 are retracted, they can stop blocking the light source.

[0043] Regarding the technical solution of this embodiment, the outer wall of the elastic cloth 10 is coated with a light-shielding coating. After the multiple light-shielding covers 9 are unfolded, gaps will be generated between the light-shielding covers 9, so that external light sources can shine on the smoke box through the gaps. The elastic cloth 10 can block the gaps generated without interfering with the unfolding or closing action of the light-shielding covers 9.

[0044] Furthermore, the tops of the four light shields 9 are hinged to the support column 7, so that there is no interference between adjacent light shields 9 when they are deployed.

[0045] A controller is installed on the base 1, and a light intensity sensor is installed on the barcode reader 8. The controller is electrically connected to the electric telescopic rod 13 and the light intensity sensor. When the light intensity sensor measures that the external light intensity is greater than a certain threshold, the controller activates the electric telescopic rod 13 to push the push ring 12 upward, thereby driving the light shield 9 to unfold through the connecting rod 11 to achieve light blocking. Conversely, when the light of the barcode reader 8 is insufficient, the light shield 9 is retracted, and appropriate supplementary lighting is provided by an external light source. It should be further noted that by controlling the moving distance of the push ring 12, the deflection degree of the connecting rod 11 and the light shield 9 can be controlled, thereby controlling the degree of light blocking.

[0046] Furthermore, there are two electric telescopic rods 13, and the bottom ends of the two electric telescopic rods 13 are fixed to the top of the barcode reader 8.

[0047] Specifically, in actual use, the motor 14 is first started to drive one of the threaded rods 4 to rotate, and the two threaded rods 4 rotate synchronously through the synchronous belt and synchronous pulley. After the threaded rod 4 rotates, the meshing relationship between the threaded rod 4 and the adjusting frame 5 can drive it to move up and down effectively, so as to adjust the distance between the barcode reader 8 and the cigarette box according to the actual situation, so that the barcode reader 8 is at an appropriate height, which can improve the barcode reading success rate. Then, the conveyor belt 2 is started to transport the cigarette box, and the barcode reader 8 can be used to scan it. However, when the external light... When the light intensity is too high, the electric telescopic rod 13 is activated to push the push ring 12 upward. When the push ring 12 moves upward, it will drive the four connecting rods 11 to move upward and deflect, thereby causing the four light shields 9 to unfold and shield the barcode reader 8. This can effectively reduce the impact of strong external light on the barcode reader 8's scanning success rate. After the light shields 9 are unfolded, the elastic cloth 10 can also block the gaps that are created without interfering with the unfolding action of the light shields 9. This is suitable for barcode scanning of cigarette boxes inside the factory and has high practicality.

[0048] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments, provides a further explanation of the barcode scanning device for cigarette box entry and exit from the warehouse provided by this utility model.

[0049] A barcode scanning device for cigarette box entry and exit, comprising:

[0050] A base 1 is provided, a conveyor belt 2 is installed on the base 1, a bracket 3 is fixedly installed on one side of the base 1, a threaded rod 4 is rotatably connected inside the bracket 3, and an adjustment frame 5 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 4.

[0051] Mounting base 6 is fixedly connected to the adjusting frame 5. A support column 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting base 6. A barcode reader 8 is integrally fixedly installed at the bottom of the support column 7, and the barcode reader 8 is located directly above the conveyor belt 2.

[0052] Multiple light shields 9 are rotatably connected to the top of the support column 7. An elastic cloth 10 is fixedly connected between adjacent light shields 9, and a connecting rod 11 is hinged to the inner wall of the light shield 9. A push ring 12 is hinged to the free end of the connecting rod 11, and an electric telescopic rod 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the push ring 12.

[0053] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: In actual use, the motor 14 is first started to drive one of the threaded rods 4 to rotate. The synchronous belt and synchronous pulley cause both threaded rods 4 to rotate synchronously. After the threaded rods 4 rotate, the meshing relationship between the threaded rods 4 and the adjusting frame 5 allows them to move effectively up and down. This facilitates adjusting the distance between the barcode reader 8 and the cigarette box according to the actual situation, ensuring the barcode reader 8 is at an appropriate height to improve the barcode reading success rate. Then, the conveyor belt 2 is started to transport the cigarette box, and the barcode reader 8 is used for scanning. When the ambient light intensity is too high, the electric telescopic rod 13 is activated to push the push ring 12 upward. When the push ring 12 moves upward, it will drive the four connecting rods 11 to move upward and deflect, thereby causing the four light shields 9 to unfold and shield the barcode reader 8. This can effectively reduce the impact of strong ambient light on the barcode reader 8's scanning success rate. After the light shields 9 are unfolded, the elastic cloth 10 can also block the gaps that are created without interfering with the unfolding action of the light shields 9. This is suitable for barcode scanning of cigarette boxes inside the factory and has high practicality.
