Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cigarette machinery and equipment technology, and more specifically, to a cleaning device for the brush of the cutting roller of a cigarette machine. Background Technology
[0002] After the cigarette machine's cutting roller has been cutting glued packaging paper for a long time, glue clumps tend to accumulate on the surface of the cutting blade. These glue clumps are brushed off by the cutting roller brush in time, but after brushing the cutting roller for a long time, glue residue can easily accumulate on the surface and inside of the brush.
[0003] Currently, cigarette machine operators use copper brushes to clean the cutter roller brushes. Because the brushes are cylindrical, operators need to change angles multiple times to clean them. This cleaning method has blind spots, resulting in the brushes not being cleaned properly. Furthermore, when applying lubricant to the cleaned brushes, the copper brush is used to lightly rub the lubricant onto the brush surface, which also easily leads to uneven application of lubricant. Both unclean and uneven brush cleaning and lubrication can cause defects in cigarette quality. Moreover, the entire process of cleaning the brushes with copper brushes is time-consuming and laborious.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a cleaning device for the brush of the cutting roller of a cigarette machine has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Utility Model Content

[0028] Techniques, methods, and equipment known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and equipment should be considered part of the specification.
[0029] In all the examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values.
[0030] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a cleaning device for the brush of the cutting roller of a cigarette machine, including: a cleaning sleeve 1, a cleaning component 2 and a driving component 3; the first end of the cleaning sleeve 1 is an open end 11, and the second end of the cleaning sleeve 1 is a closed end 12.
[0031] The cleaning assembly 2 includes cleaning bristles 21, a cleaning port 22, and a scraper 23. The cleaning port 22 is located on the side wall of the cleaning sleeve 1 and extends through the cleaning sleeve 1. The scraper 23 is located on the side walls on both sides of the cleaning port 22. The cleaning bristles 21 are evenly spaced in the inner wall of the cleaning sleeve 1.
[0032] Specifically, the cleaning bristles 21 are arranged in the inner wall of the entire cleaning sleeve 1, the angle formed between the scraper 23 and the inner wall of the cleaning sleeve 1 is an obtuse angle, and the angle formed between the two scrapers 23 is an acute angle.
[0033] The thickness of the scraper 23 gradually decreases from the outside of the cleaning sleeve 1 to the inside of the cleaning sleeve 1, which makes it easier to scrape off the glue blocks cleaned off by the cleaning bristles 21 and the glue blocks on the surface of the brush.
[0034] The drive assembly 3 is used to drive the brush inserted into the cleaning sleeve 1 to rotate.
[0035] This invention features a cleaning sleeve 1 with its first end open (11) and its second end closed (12). A cleaning port 22 is positioned on the side wall of the cleaning sleeve 1 and extends through it. A scraper 23 is positioned on the side walls of the cleaning port 22, and cleaning bristles 21 are evenly spaced within the inner wall of the cleaning sleeve 1. In use, the operator inserts the uncleaned brush into the cleaning sleeve 1 through the open end (11) and simultaneously activates the drive assembly 3. This drives the brush to rotate, causing it to rotate within the cleaning sleeve 1. The cleaning bristles 21 clean the adhesive residue on the brush. The removed adhesive residue is carried to the cleaning port 22 as the brush rotates, and the scraper 23 removes it. Simultaneously, the angled blade further cleans the brush surface, improving cleaning effectiveness and efficiency while reducing the operator's workload.
[0036] After cleaning, use a positive pressure air gun to gently blow the inside of the cleaning sleeve 1 to remove any remaining adhesive residue on the cleaning bristles 21, keeping the inside of the cleaning sleeve 1 clean. Then, insert the cleaned brush back into the cleaning sleeve 1 and apply lubricating oil evenly to the cleaning port 22. Then, start the drive assembly 3 to make the drive assembly 3 drive the brush to rotate. Under the action of the cleaning bristles 21, the lubricating oil is evenly applied to the brush, thus effectively completing the cleaning and lubrication of the brush.
[0037] In one embodiment of the cigarette machine cutter roller brush cleaning device of this utility model, the cleaning bristles 21 are made of steel.
[0038] Specifically, the diameter of the cleaning bristles 21 is smaller than the diameter of the brush so that the cleaning bristles 21 can be inserted into the inside of the brush, thereby enabling effective cleaning of the brush.
[0039] In one embodiment of the cigarette machine cutter roller brush cleaning device of this utility model, the length of the cleaning bristles 21 is less than half the diameter of the cleaning sleeve 1.
[0040] Specifically, the length of the cleaning bristles 21 inside the housing allows them to be embedded in the brush, further improving the cleaning effect.
[0041] In one embodiment of the cigarette machine cutter roller brush cleaning device of this utility model, a reinforcing rib 4 is provided on the outside of the open end 11 of the cleaning sleeve 1. This arrangement can improve the structural strength of the cleaning sleeve 1.
[0042] In one embodiment of the cigarette machine cutter roller brush cleaning device of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, there are three cleaning ports 22. The three cleaning ports 22 are evenly spaced along the outer periphery of the cleaning sleeve 1. This arrangement makes it easy for the rubber clumps cleaned off by the cleaning bristles 21 to be discharged from the cleaning ports 22 on the cleaning sleeve 1.
[0043] In one embodiment of the cigarette machine cutter roller brush cleaning device of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the drive assembly 3 includes a bearing 31, a rotating disk 32, and a drive motor 33. The drive motor 33 is located at the bottom of the cleaning sleeve 1. The outer peripheral wall of the bearing 31 is connected to the inner wall of the cleaning sleeve 1. The outer peripheral wall of the rotating disk 32 is connected to the inner peripheral wall of the bearing 31. The output shaft of the drive motor 33 is connected to the center position of the rotating disk 32.
[0044] The rotating disk 32 is provided with a mounting groove 34 for mounting brushes.
[0045] Specifically, when the brush is inserted into the cleaning sleeve 1, it is inserted into the mounting slot 34, thereby fixing the brush. Then, the drive motor 33 is started, causing the drive motor 33 to drive the rotating disk 32 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating disk 32 drives the brush to rotate, thereby causing the cleaning bristles 21 to clean the adhesive on the brush. The cleaned adhesive is sent to the cleaning port 22 as the brush rotates. The scraper 23 can scrape off the cleaned adhesive, and at the same time, the angled blade can clean the brush surface again, further improving the cleaning effect and cleaning efficiency, and reducing the labor intensity of the operator.
[0046] In one embodiment of the cigarette machine cutter roller brush cleaning device of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the drive assembly 3 also includes a battery pack 35, a USB interface 36, and a switch button 37. The battery pack 35 is located at the bottom of the cleaning sleeve 1 and is connected to the drive motor 33 and the USB interface 36. The USB interface 36 is located at the bottom of the cleaning sleeve 1, and the switch button 37 is used to control the drive motor 33 to turn on or off.
[0047] This invention provides power to the drive motor 33 through the battery pack 35, ensuring the stable operation of the drive motor 33, and charges the battery pack 35 through the USB interface 36, thereby improving its service life.
