Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cigarette packaging production technology, specifically relating to a cigarette pack conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] In the cigarette packaging process, visual inspection is required to check for quality defects on the surface of individual packs. This necessitates using as few cameras as possible to capture the surface of the pack containing the most cigarettes, while also ensuring stable pack operation, high image quality, and effective inspection. Figure 1 As shown, the cigarette pack production site generally uses a cigarette pack conveyor belt 1 to move the cigarette packs. There are baffles 3 on both sides of the cigarette pack conveyor belt 1 to restrict the movement range of the cigarette packs, so it is impossible to take pictures of the cigarette packs. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cigarette pack conveying device to solve the problems existing in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this application employs the following technical solution:

[0005] A cigarette pack conveying device includes a cigarette pack conveyor belt, a suction belt is arranged above one side of the cigarette pack conveyor belt, the suction belt is driven by a suction belt drive motor, suction holes are provided on the suction belt, a suction block is arranged on the outside of the suction belt, the suction block is connected to the suction device through a pipeline, and a suction port corresponding to the suction holes is provided on the side of the suction block opposite to the suction belt.

[0006] Furthermore, a first baffle is provided on the side opposite to the smoke pack conveyor belt and the suction belt.

[0007] Furthermore, the suction belt is the second baffle on the other side of the smoke pack conveyor belt.

[0008] Furthermore, the suction holes on the suction belt are arranged horizontally along the suction belt, and there are two or more rows of suction holes.

[0009] Furthermore, the suction block has a cuboid structure with a cavity inside. A rectangular suction port corresponding to the suction hole is provided on the side of the suction block opposite to the suction belt. The suction port is sealed to the suction belt.

[0010] Furthermore, the cigarette pack conveyor belt and the suction belt rotate synchronously.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] The cigarette pack conveying device of this utility model uses a suction belt to adsorb and convey the cigarette packs, which not only avoids the shaking that affects the visual inspection effect when using a cigarette pack conveyor belt, but also ensures that the cigarette packs are suspended, stable and conveyed at high speed during the adsorption and conveying process, so as to take visual inspection photos with better results.

[0018] The technical solution of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are merely exemplary and can only be used to explain and illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting the technical solution of this utility model.

[0019] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this application provides a cigarette pack conveying device, including a cigarette pack conveyor belt 1. The cigarette pack conveyor belt 1 is an indispensable piece of equipment in the current tobacco production process. Small cigarette packs and cartons are all transported by the conveyor belt. It is a conventional technology and requirement to perform corresponding visual inspection on the small cigarette packs during the transportation process to remove unqualified cigarette packs.

[0020] The technical solution of this application is to improve the existing cigarette pack conveyor belt by removing one of the guide rails (guardrails) on both sides of the original cigarette pack conveyor belt 1 and replacing them with a suction belt 4. The suction belt 4 is set above one side of the cigarette pack conveyor belt 1 and is driven by a drive motor 5 to move synchronously with the cigarette pack conveyor belt 1. This ensures that when the cigarette pack 2 moves out of the suction belt 4 and falls back onto the cigarette pack conveyor belt, there will be no speed change that would affect the position of the cigarette pack. According to conventional technology, the drive motor drives the drive wheel to rotate. The suction belt is installed on two drive wheels, one of which is a driven wheel 8 and the other is a driving wheel 6. The driving wheel 6 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 5.

[0021] Two or more rows of suction holes 9 are provided on the suction belt 4. During operation, when the suction belt picks up the cigarette pack, the cigarette pack leaves the cigarette pack conveyor belt. After being attracted by the suction belt, the cigarette pack will not shake or vibrate during the conveying process, and will remain stable during visual inspection. On the other hand, the lower end of the cigarette pack leaves the cigarette pack conveyor belt, increasing the detection surface of the camera. After the suction belt loses its suction at the end, the cigarette pack falls back onto the original cigarette pack conveyor belt under the action of gravity to continue conveying.

[0022] When taking photos to inspect the appearance of cigarette packs, it is necessary to do so under conditions of high-speed, stable transport with no foreign objects in sight. This device consists of a suction belt, drive wheel, driven wheel, drive motor, and suction block, and is installed on the cigarette pack conveyor channel of the cigarette packaging equipment. During production, the drive motor drives the drive wheel to rotate at high speed, which in turn drives the tensioned suction belt with small holes in the middle to rotate at high speed. When a cigarette pack enters, it is sucked onto the suction belt and conveyed forward. Upon reaching the end of the conveying process, the cigarette pack automatically falls back into the original conveyor channel and continues to be conveyed forward. Figure 3 As shown, the suction block 7 is a cavity with a rectangular suction port 10 at the corresponding part of the suction belt. The suction port 10 is sealed by the suction belt, and air is only drawn from the small hole of the suction belt to draw the smoke pack.

[0023] In this application, a first baffle is provided on the side opposite to the smoke pack conveyor belt and the suction belt.

[0024] In this application, the suction belt is the second baffle on the other side of the smoke pack conveyor belt.

[0025] In this application, the suction holes on the suction belt are arranged horizontally along the suction belt, and there are two or more rows of suction holes.
