Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tobacco package conveying technology, and in particular to a tobacco package conveying anti-empty head device. Background Technology

[0002] During the cigarette pack conveying process, when the conveying speed of the front cigarette pack is less than that of the rear cigarette pack, and there is a large speed difference between the front and rear cigarette packs, the rear cigarette pack will collide with the front cigarette pack, causing the tobacco in the rear cigarette pack to sink and form empty cigarettes, which seriously affects the quality of the product.

[0003] In existing technologies, most methods reduce the speed of the tobacco packs by installing brushes on both sides of the conveyor channel, thereby reducing the impact force of the tobacco packs by decreasing the speed difference between the front and rear packs. However, after prolonged use, the brushes wear out significantly and need to be replaced periodically, making maintenance quite troublesome. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a device for preventing empty head in the cigarette pack conveying process, which solves the problem in the prior art that the brushes are severely worn, need to be replaced regularly, and are difficult to maintain.

[0005] This utility model solves the above-mentioned technical problems through the following technical means:

[0006] An anti-empty-head device for cigarette pack conveying is applied to a cigarette pack conveying mechanism. The cigarette pack conveying mechanism includes a conveyor belt, and side plates are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt. The anti-empty-head device includes two sets of deceleration components symmetrically installed on the two side plates. Each deceleration component includes a mounting plate and a spring. The mounting plate is fixedly installed on the side of the side plate away from the conveyor belt. A notch is provided on the side plate. The two ends of the mounting plate are fixedly connected to the side plates at both ends of the notch. The spring includes an integrally formed mounting section and a guide section. The mounting section is located inside the notch and is fixedly installed on the inner side of the mounting plate. The guide section is located at the end of the mounting section closer to the cigarette pack output direction and is inclined towards the centerline of the conveyor belt from the fixed end to the free end.

[0007] By setting up the above structure, on the one hand, the elastic sheet rubs against the cigarette pack, thereby slowing down the cigarette pack, resulting in a long service life and easy subsequent maintenance; on the other hand, the two symmetrically arranged elastic sheets can guide the cigarette pack, thereby positioning the cigarette pack in the center line of the conveyor belt and reducing friction and collision between the cigarette pack and the side plate.

[0008] Furthermore, a pad is fixedly connected between the mounting section and the mounting plate, and the pad is used to make the inner surface of the mounting section flush with the inner surface of the side plate.

[0009] By setting the above structure, the height difference between the inner surface of the mounting section and the inner surface of the side plate is reduced, allowing the cigarette pack to smoothly transition from the side plate to the spring sheet.

[0010] Furthermore, the pad is welded to the outer surface of the mounting section, the mounting plate has a first through hole, the pad has a first screw hole, the mounting plate is provided with a fixing bolt, and the screw of the fixing bolt passes through the first through hole and is threadedly connected to the first screw hole.

[0011] By setting up the above structure, the pad and the mounting plate are fixedly connected, which facilitates the replacement and installation of the spring.

[0012] Furthermore, a second screw hole is provided on the mounting plate, and an adjusting bolt is threaded into the second screw hole. The screw of the adjusting bolt passes through the mounting plate and abuts against the outer surface of the guide section.

[0013] By setting the above structure, the tilt angle of the guide section can be adjusted, thereby controlling the deceleration effect of the deceleration component on the cigarette pack.

[0014] Furthermore, a scale is fixedly connected to the free end of the guide section. The scale is located on the top of the side plate and is used to measure the distance between the free end of the guide section and the side plate.

[0015] By setting up the above structure, when adjusting the tilt angle of the guide section of the two springs, the tilt angle of the two springs can be determined by observing the value of the corresponding scale on the side plate, so as to ensure the stability of the cigarette pack deceleration.

[0016] Furthermore, a sliding groove is provided on the side plate, and the mounting plate is slidably disposed in the sliding groove. Both ends of the mounting plate are provided with third screw holes, and locking bolts are threaded into the third screw holes. The screw of the locking bolt passes through the third screw hole and abuts against the side plate.

[0017] By setting up the above structure, a fixed connection between the mounting plate and the side plate can be achieved.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

This utility model, by setting up an installation plate and spring sheets, on the one hand, the elastic sheet rubs against the cigarette pack to slow it down, resulting in a long service life and easy subsequent maintenance; on the other hand, the two symmetrically arranged spring sheets can guide the cigarette pack, thereby positioning the cigarette pack at the center line of the conveyor belt and reducing friction and collision between the cigarette pack and the side plate.

[0020] 2. By setting a pad, this utility model reduces the height difference between the inner surface of the mounting section and the inner surface of the side plate, allowing the cigarette pack to smoothly transition from the side plate to the spring sheet.

[0021] 3. By setting an adjusting bolt, this utility model can adjust the tilt angle of the guide section, thereby controlling the deceleration effect of the deceleration component on the cigarette pack.

[0022] 4. By setting a scale, this utility model allows you to adjust the tilt angle of the guide section of the two spring pieces by observing the value of the scale on the side plate to determine whether the tilt angles of the two spring pieces are the same, thus ensuring the stability of the cigarette pack deceleration.

[0037] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this utility model discloses a cigarette pack conveying anti-empty-head device, which is applied to a cigarette pack conveying mechanism. The cigarette pack conveying mechanism includes a conveyor belt 1, and side plates 11 are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt 1. The anti-empty-head device includes two sets of deceleration components symmetrically installed on the two side plates 11. The deceleration components include a mounting plate 2 and a spring 3. The mounting plate 2 is fixedly installed on the side of the side plate 11 away from the conveyor belt 1. A notch 111 is opened on the side plate 11. The two ends of the mounting plate 2 are fixedly connected to the side plates 11 at both ends of the notch 111. The spring 3 includes an integrally formed mounting section 31 and a guide section 32. The mounting section 31 is located inside the notch 111 and is fixedly installed on the inner side of the mounting plate 2. The guide section 32 is located at the end of the mounting section 31 closer to the output direction of the cigarette pack 4. The guide section 32 is inclined from the fixed end to the free end towards the centerline of the conveyor belt 1. During use, as the cigarette pack 4 passes through the two sets of deceleration components, the spring plates 3 of the two sets of deceleration components rub and squeeze the cigarette pack 4, thereby slowing down the cigarette pack 4 and reducing its conveying speed. Compared with the brushes in the prior art, the spring plates 3 have a longer service life and are easier to maintain. At the same time, the two spring plates 3 can guide the cigarette pack 4, so that the cigarette pack 4 is located at the center line of the conveyor belt 1, reducing the friction and collision between the cigarette pack 4 and the side plate 11.

[0038] In this embodiment, a pad 5 is fixedly connected between the mounting section 31 and the mounting plate 2. The pad 5 is used to make the inner surface of the mounting section 31 flush with the inner surface of the side plate 11. This reduces the height difference between the inner surface of the mounting section 31 and the inner surface of the side plate 11, allowing the cigarette pack 4 to smoothly transition from the side plate 11 to the spring piece 3.

[0039] In this embodiment, the pad 5 is welded to the outer surface of the mounting section 31. The mounting plate 2 has a first through hole 21, and the pad 5 has a first screw hole 51. A fixing bolt 6 is provided on the mounting plate 2, and the bolt 6 passes through the first through hole 21 and is threaded into the first screw hole 51. In this embodiment, two of each of the first through hole 21, first screw hole 51, and fixing bolt 6 are provided to improve the stability of the connection between the pad 5 and the mounting plate 2. In other embodiments, the pad 5 can also be directly welded between the spring 3 and the mounting plate 2. In this example, the fixing bolt 6 is used to achieve a fixed connection between the pad 5 and the mounting plate 2, facilitating the replacement and installation of the spring 3.

[0040] In this embodiment, a second screw hole 22 is provided on the mounting plate 2, and an adjusting bolt 7 is threaded into the second screw hole 22. The screw of the adjusting bolt 7 passes through the mounting plate 2 and abuts against the outer surface of the guide section 32. This allows adjustment of the tilt angle of the guide section 32, thereby controlling the deceleration effect of the deceleration assembly on the cigarette pack 4. During use, if a significant reduction in the speed of the cigarette pack 4 is required, the adjusting bolt 7 is screwed toward the mounting plate 2, giving the guide section 32 a larger tilt angle. If a smaller reduction in the speed of the cigarette pack 4 is required, the adjusting bolt 7 is screwed away from the mounting plate 2, giving the guide section 32 a smaller tilt angle.

[0041] In this embodiment, a scale 321 is fixedly connected to the free end of the guide section 32. The scale 321 is located on the top of the side plate 11 and is used to measure the distance between the free end of the guide section 32 and the side plate 11. When adjusting the tilt angle of the guide section 32 of the two spring pieces 3, the tilt angle of the two spring pieces 3 can be determined by observing the value of the scale 321 corresponding to the side plate 11, so as to ensure the stability of the deceleration of the cigarette pack 4.

[0042] In this embodiment, a groove 112 is provided on the side plate 11, and the mounting plate 2 is slidably disposed within the groove 112. Two third screw holes 23 are provided at both ends of the mounting plate 2, and locking bolts 8 are threaded into the third screw holes 23. The screws of the locking bolts 8 pass through the third screw holes 23 and abut against the side plate 11. In some other embodiments, the side plate 11 and the mounting plate 2 can also be directly welded. This embodiment, by providing locking bolts 8, facilitates the subsequent assembly and disassembly of the mounting plate 2.

[0043] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0044] In use, the cigarette pack 4 is decelerated by two sets of speed reduction components. The spring plates 3 of the two sets of speed reduction components rub and squeeze the cigarette pack 4, thereby reducing the conveying speed of the cigarette pack 4. At the same time, the two spring plates 3 can guide the cigarette pack 4, so that the cigarette pack 4 is located at the center line of the conveyor belt 1.

[0045] During adjustment, if a significant reduction in the speed of the cigarette pack 4 is required, the adjusting bolt 7 is screwed toward the mounting plate 2 to give the guide section 32 a larger tilt angle. If a smaller reduction in the speed of the cigarette pack 4 is required, the adjusting bolt 7 is screwed away from the mounting plate 2 to give the guide section 32 a smaller tilt angle. Furthermore, the tilt angles of the two spring pieces 3 can be determined by observing the value on the scale 321 corresponding to the side plate 11, thus ensuring the stability of the deceleration of the cigarette pack 4.

[0046] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
