Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cigarette filter rod conveying technology, and in particular to a device for conveying lightweight cylindrical filter rods by turning them over. Background Technology

[0002] In many industrial sectors, it is necessary to turn lightweight cylindrical objects around to meet the requirements of subsequent processing techniques. For example, during the production of cigarette filter rods, the cigarette orientation needs to be changed to facilitate entry into subsequent processes. Currently, there are two methods for turning cylindrical objects around in actual production: one is using negative pressure adsorption, and the other is using a mechanical clamping device. However, the negative pressure adsorption method requires a continuous supply of negative pressure, resulting in high energy consumption, and the turning effect will be affected when the negative pressure supply is insufficient. The mechanical clamping device method has problems such as large device size, inconvenient operation, and difficulty in ensuring clamping stability. Furthermore, the mechanical clamping device may damage the lightweight cylindrical sample, leading to sample damage.

[0003] It is evident that existing lightweight cylindrical turning devices still have inconveniences and shortcomings in terms of structure, method, and use, and urgently need further improvement. How to create a new turning and dropping bar conveying device for lightweight cylinders that is stable in clamping, compact in size, easy to operate, and does not damage the lightweight cylinder has become a pressing goal for the industry. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a turning and dropping bar conveying device for lightweight cylinders, which can make the clamping stable, small in size, easy to operate and will not cause damage to the lightweight cylinders, thereby overcoming the shortcomings of existing lightweight cylinder turning devices.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a turning and dropping bar conveying device for lightweight cylinders, including a fixed platform and a dropping rotation mechanism and a horizontal conveying mechanism disposed thereon. The dropping rotation mechanism includes a dropping trough with an opening at the top, and a parabolic arc track is provided inside the dropping trough for turning the lightweight cylinder falling horizontally from the opening at the top of the dropping trough into a vertical direction. A discharge hole is provided on the side of the dropping trough opposite to the arc track, and the height of the discharge hole is greater than the height of the lightweight cylinder.

[0006] The horizontal conveying mechanism includes a horizontal guide rail, a sliding block slidably disposed on the horizontal guide rail, a driving mechanism for driving the sliding block to slide horizontally, and an adsorption mechanism disposed on the sliding block. The adsorption mechanism includes a telescopic cylinder and an adsorption head connected to its extended end. The adsorption head is used to connect to a negative pressure mechanism and can be located at the discharge hole when the telescopic cylinder is extended to adsorb a lightweight cylinder in the vertical direction. When the telescopic cylinder is retracted, it drives the lightweight cylinder to move along the horizontal guide rail.

[0007] In a further improvement, a cleaning hole for fallen objects is provided on the fixed platform corresponding to the bottom of the material discharge chute, and a receiving box is provided at the bottom of the cleaning hole.

[0008] In a further improvement, the arc-shaped guide rail in the material discharge trough is set in a direction parallel to the horizontal guide rail.

[0009] In a further improvement, the drive mechanism includes a motor and a synchronous belt mechanism. The motor is mounted on the fixed platform, and its output end is connected to the synchronous belt mechanism. The sliding block is connected to the synchronous belt, so the sliding block moves horizontally with the synchronous belt under the drive of the motor.

[0010] In a further improvement, the fixed platform is provided with a conveying hole, which is located on the path of the adsorption head extending along the horizontal guide rail. A conveying baffle is also provided on the side of the conveying hole away from the adsorption head, which is used to guide the lightweight cylinder to fall vertically from the conveying hole when the adsorption head loses negative pressure.

[0011] In a further improvement, the conveying baffle is configured as a right-angled baffle.

[0012] As a further improvement, the fixed platform is also equipped with a hopper device, which has a material dropping track, the bottom end of which is connected to the conveying hole.

[0013] With this design, the present invention has at least the following advantages:

[0014] 1. This utility model relates to a turning and dropping bar conveying device for lightweight cylinders. Through the design of an arc-shaped track in the material dropping and rotating mechanism, the lightweight cylinder is cleverly transformed from a horizontal to a vertical position, achieving the purpose of turning and flipping the cylinder. Then, a horizontal conveying mechanism uses negative pressure to suction the vertically positioned cylinder and horizontally conveys it above a designated conveying hole for automatic sampling and inspection during the production process of cylindrical cylinder manufacturing equipment. This device has a simple structure, ingenious design, stable clamping, convenient operation, and compact and reasonable components, resulting in a small size and preventing damage to the lightweight cylinder.

[0015] 2. It also features a drop cleaning hole and a material receiving box, making it easy to clean up any fibrous material that falls off the cylindrical cigarette during its descent, which is convenient and practical.

[0016] 3. Furthermore, by setting up a hopper device and connecting the bottom end of the material drop track in the hopper device to the conveying hole, manual feeding and inspection can be achieved, thus expanding the application range of the device. Attached Figure Description

The material dropping trough 21 is provided with a parabolic arc track 211 inside, which is used to turn a lightweight cylinder falling from the opening at the top of the material dropping trough 21 into a vertical direction. The side of the material dropping trough 21 opposite to the arc track 211 is provided with a discharge hole 212. The height of the discharge hole 212 is greater than the height of the lightweight cylinder so that the cylinder can be removed from the discharge hole.

The horizontal guide rail 31 is arranged in a direction parallel to the direction of the arc-shaped guide rail 211 in the discharge trough 21. The adsorption mechanism includes a telescopic cylinder 33 and an adsorption head 34 connected to its extended end. The adsorption head 34 is used to connect to a negative pressure mechanism and can be located at the discharge hole 212 when the telescopic cylinder 33 is extended to adsorb a vertically oriented lightweight cylinder, and when the telescopic cylinder 33 is retracted, it drives the lightweight cylinder to move along the horizontal guide rail 31.

[0029] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism includes a motor 35 and a synchronous belt mechanism 36. The motor 35 is mounted on the fixed platform 1, and its output end is connected to the transmission wheel of the synchronous belt mechanism 35 to drive the synchronous belt to move. The sliding block 32 is connected to the synchronous belt through a connecting block 37. Under the drive of the motor 35, the sliding block 32 moves horizontally with the synchronous belt, thereby driving the adsorption mechanism mounted on it to move horizontally.

[0030] In this embodiment, the fixed platform 1 is provided with a conveying hole 13. The conveying hole 13 is located on the path of the adsorption head 34 extending along the horizontal guide rail 31, and a conveying baffle 14 is also provided on the side of the conveying hole 13 away from the adsorption head 34. The conveying baffle 14 is used to guide the lightweight cylinder to fall vertically from the conveying hole 13 and enter the cylinder detection mechanism when the adsorption head 34 loses negative pressure, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 5 and 6 A schematic diagram of the structure of the turning bar conveying device is shown, in which the adsorption head is located above the conveying hole.

[0031] Please refer to the appendix. Figure 5As shown, the conveying baffle 14 is preferably configured as a right-angled baffle, which can better guide the cylinder and prevent the cylinder from deviating.

The hopper device 4 is equipped with a material drop track, the bottom end of which is connected to the conveying hole 13 for easy manual loading. This structure allows manual and automated loading to share a single conveying hole, which is reasonably designed, compact, small in size, and has a wide range of applications.

[0033] This utility model's turning and dropping bar conveying device utilizes a specific track setting in the dropping rotation mechanism to change the cylinder from a horizontal to a vertical state during free fall. Combined with the horizontal conveying mechanism, this ensures stable and reliable cylinder conveying without damaging the cylinder. The device also facilitates manual inspection and conveying of lightweight cylindrical samples. The combined conveying channels are simple, convenient, and rationally designed, making it suitable for widespread application.
