[0027] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] See Figures 1 to 8 This embodiment provides a tobacco packing system device, including a conveying mechanism, a lid separation mechanism, a packing mechanism, and a pressing mechanism. The conveying mechanism is used to convey tobacco to the packing mechanism for packing. The lid separation mechanism includes a bracket 5 and a suction cup adsorption mechanism 9 disposed on the bracket 5. The bracket 5 has a cavity inside for placing tobacco packaging boxes 8. The suction cup adsorption mechanism 9 is located in the cavity and is used to control the separation or fastening of the lid and body of the tobacco packaging box 8. The packing mechanism is located on one side of the lid separation mechanism and includes a support frame 4 and a reciprocating conveyor mounted on the support frame 4. The feeding unit 6 and the weighing unit 41 are used to weigh the tobacco packaging box 8 to which tobacco is to be added. The box body is placed on the upper surface of the weighing unit 41. The reciprocating feeding unit 6 corresponds to the discharge end of the conveying mechanism. The discharge port of the reciprocating feeding unit 6 is aligned with the upper opening of the box body of the tobacco packaging box 8. The weighing unit 41 is used to weigh the box body of the tobacco packaging box 8 and the total weight of the tobacco inside the box. When the total weight detected by the weighing unit 41 reaches a predetermined value, the reciprocating feeding unit 6 stops feeding. The pressing mechanism 7 is set on the support frame 4. The pressing mechanism 7 is used to press the tobacco inside the box body of the tobacco packaging box 8.

[0029] The tobacco packing system also includes a controller, which is electrically connected to all electrical components of the device. After the total weight detected by the weighing unit 41 reaches a predetermined value, it transmits a signal to the controller. The controller receives the signal, analyzes and processes it, and then outputs a control signal to the reciprocating feeding unit 6, causing it to stop feeding. The weighing unit 41 is a weighbridge.

[0030] In actual use, the conveying mechanism transfers the tobacco shreds to the reciprocating feeding unit 6. The suction cup adsorption mechanism 9 separates the empty tobacco shred packaging box 8 from its lid. The separated tobacco shred packaging box 8 moves to the upper surface of the weighing unit 41, which performs an initial weighing. Then, the reciprocating feeding unit 6 transfers the tobacco shreds into the tobacco shred packaging box 8, and the weighing unit 41 weighs the box and the total weight of the tobacco shreds inside in real time. When the total weight reaches a predetermined value, the reciprocating feeding unit 6 stops feeding, and the tobacco shred packaging box 8 containing the tobacco shreds moves to below the suction cup adsorption mechanism 9. The suction cup adsorption mechanism 9 reseals the lid onto the tobacco shred packaging box 8. The sealed tobacco shred packaging box 8 then moves to the next processing step. The movement of the tobacco shred packaging box 8 between the packing mechanism and the lid separation mechanism can be automated or manually. Automated equipment includes robotic arms.

[0031] In this embodiment, the support 5 has two symmetrical cavities inside, and openings communicating with the cavities are provided on the sides of the support 5. The support frame 4 has two symmetrical weighing units 41, each holding a box of tobacco packaging 8 to be filled with tobacco. The reciprocating feeding unit 6 has discharge ports at both ends, each aligned with a box of tobacco packaging 8 to be filled with tobacco. By providing two cavities and two weighing units, continuous conveying of tobacco packaging boxes can be achieved. After one box is filled with tobacco, another box can be filled, enabling continuous boxing production.

[0032] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The reciprocating feeding unit 6 includes a base 61, a slide 62, a synchronous belt conveyor assembly 64, and a funnel 65. The base 61 is mounted on the support frame 4. The slide 62 is movably mounted on the upper surface of the base 61. The synchronous belt conveyor assembly 64 is mounted on the slide 62 and is used to transfer tobacco shreds to the body of the tobacco packaging box 8. The funnel 65 is mounted on the slide 62 and is positioned relative to the edge of the synchronous belt of the synchronous belt conveyor assembly 64. The discharge port of the funnel 65 is aligned with the upper opening of the tobacco packaging box 8 located inside the support frame 4. The synchronous belt conveyor assembly 64 is a conventional synchronous belt and synchronous pulley conveying mechanism.

[0033] In this embodiment, the reciprocating feeding unit 6 further includes a cable chain 67. The base 61 is equipped with a guide rail and a motor 66. A gear is installed at the output end of the motor 66. A rack 63 meshing with the gear is provided on the side of the slide 62. A slider is provided at the bottom of the slide 62 and is slidably mounted on the guide rail. One end of the cable chain 67 is connected to the slide 62, and the other end is connected to the base 61. The slide 62 of the reciprocating feeding unit 6 moves back and forth under the drive of the motor 66, so that the tobacco shreds can fall relatively evenly into the tobacco packaging box 8.

[0034] In this embodiment, baffles are provided on the upper surfaces of both sides of the carriage 62, forming a tobacco conveying zone between the baffles and the synchronous belt of the synchronous belt conveyor assembly 64. The baffles prevent the tobacco from falling off during the conveying process.

[0035] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The pressing mechanism 7 includes a lifting drive component and a pressure plate. The lifting drive component is connected to the pressure plate and is used to drive and control the lifting of the pressure plate.

[0037] In this embodiment, the pressure plate is a flexible pressure plate, and the lifting drive component is an electric push rod, a pneumatic push rod, or a hydraulic push rod.

[0038] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1 The transmission mechanism includes a horizontal transmission unit 1, a first inclined transmission unit 3, and several second inclined transmission units 2. The end of the horizontal transmission unit 1 corresponds to the starting end of the first inclined transmission unit 3, the end of the second inclined transmission unit 2 corresponds to the horizontal transmission unit 1, and the end of the first inclined transmission unit 3 corresponds to the reciprocating feeding unit 6. Each transmission unit of the transmission mechanism includes a base frame and a synchronous belt transmission assembly mounted on the base frame. The synchronous belt transmission assembly includes a motor, a synchronous belt, a driving synchronous pulley, and a driven synchronous pulley. The output end of the motor is connected to the driving synchronous pulley, and the synchronous belt is looped around the driving and driven synchronous pulleys. One end of the base frame (relative to the starting end of the synchronous belt transmission of tobacco) is equipped with a blocking plate to prevent tobacco from falling off, and the other end of the base frame (relative to the unloading end of the synchronous belt transmission of tobacco) is an open port to allow the tobacco on the synchronous belt to fall off smoothly.

[0039] Multiple second inclined conveying units 2 are provided to facilitate the transport of different types of tobacco shreds, thereby meeting the diverse packing requirements of tobacco shreds. The number of second inclined conveying units includes, but is not limited to, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, and the number of second inclined conveying units is set according to the type of tobacco shreds and packing and conveying requirements.

[0040] In this embodiment, refer to Figures 4 to 6 The suction cup adsorption mechanism 9 includes an electric push rod, a suction cup frame, and a suction cup. The electric push rod is mounted on a bracket, and its push rod end is connected to the suction cup frame. The suction cup is mounted on the suction cup frame. The suction cup adsorption mechanism is also provided with an air passage, which is connected to the suction cup and an air source. By drawing or blowing air, the suction cup and the lid of the tobacco packaging box can be controlled to tighten or loosen.
