Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flexible guiding device technology, and more specifically, to a flexible guiding device for a cigarette box conveyor line. Background Technology

[0002] A conveyor line guide device is a mechanical structure installed at a key position in a conveying system. Its core function is to constrain, guide, and maintain the conveyed objects (workpieces, products, materials, etc.) along a preset path and direction to prevent them from deviating, slipping, jamming, or colliding, thereby ensuring the continuity, reliability, and accuracy of the conveying process. A flexible device is a mechanism that can adaptively constrain and guide the conveyed objects (workpieces, products) through elastic deformation, adjustable structures, or intelligent control.

[0003] Currently, during production, when it is necessary to change to cigarette boxes of different sizes to ensure that the cigarette boxes are transported neatly, staff need to adjust the guiding angle of the guiding mechanism, which is time-consuming and reduces work efficiency.

[0004] This utility model provides a flexible guiding device for a cigarette box conveyor line, which aims to solve the problem of not needing to readjust the guiding angle when conveying cigarette boxes of different sizes. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a flexible guiding device for a cigarette box conveyor line, so as to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that there is no need to readjust the guiding angle when conveying cigarette boxes of different sizes.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a flexible guiding device for a cigarette box conveyor line, comprising a conveyor line, wherein two sets of symmetrically arranged guiding modules are provided on the conveyor line, each set of guiding modules is provided with a guiding component, the guiding component is provided with two sets of buffer components, and each set of buffer components is provided with a fixing component;

[0007] The guiding assembly includes a guide plate, one side of which has a plurality of equally spaced rotating grooves. A guide wheel is rotatably connected in each rotating groove. Two sets of symmetrically arranged guide blocks are fixedly connected to the side of the guide plate away from the rotating grooves. A fixing post is fixedly connected between each set of guide blocks.

[0008] Preferably, each set of buffer components includes a sliding block, each sliding block has a buffer chamber, and each buffer chamber is sealed and slidably connected to a piston plate.

[0009] Preferably, each piston plate is fixedly connected to a fixing rod at one end near the guide plate, and a fixing block is fixedly connected to the other end of each fixing rod. Each fixing block has a communicating hole, and each communicating hole is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the corresponding fixing column.

[0010] Preferably, each sliding block has a vent hole at the end away from the guide plate that communicates with the buffer chamber, and each buffer chamber is connected to the corresponding piston plate by an elastic element.

[0011] Preferably, the fixing component includes a fixing member, the side of the fixing member near the guide plate is fixedly connected to the body of the conveyor line, and a sliding member is fixedly connected to the end of the fixing member near the sliding block, and the sliding block is slidably connected inside the sliding member.

[0012] Preferably, the end of the sliding member away from the fixed member has a threaded hole, and a stud is rotatably connected in the threaded hole. The stud is used to limit the sliding of the sliding block.

[0013] Preferably, the guide wheel is made of wear-resistant and flexible polyurethane material.

[0014] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] 1. By setting up guide components and buffer components, on the one hand, when the cigarette box passes through the guide module, the guide plate is squeezed and expanded to both sides, causing the fixed rod to drive the piston plate to move in the buffer chamber and compress the elastic element, so that the air in the buffer chamber is slowly discharged from the vent hole, thus playing a flexible buffering role. On the other hand, when the guide plates on both sides expand to both sides, they also apply a certain force to the outside of the cigarette box, which will keep the cigarette box moving in the center direction of the conveyor line, thus accommodating various cigarette box sizes, avoiding the need to manually adjust the spacing of the guide modules, and improving production efficiency.

[0016] 2. By setting the fixing components, the sliding block can be fixed by rotating the studs, so that the staff can adjust the width of the guide plate expansion according to the smoke box, so that the guide wheel contacts the outer wall of the smoke box, ensuring that the smoke box moves stably in the center of the conveyor line, and the guide module can be fixed more quickly, which is conducive to the normal use of the guide module.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] Because cigarette boxes come in different sizes, when it is necessary to change to cigarette boxes of different sizes during production, in order to ensure that the cigarette boxes are transported neatly, the staff needs to adjust the guiding angle of the guiding mechanism for the cigarette boxes, which is time-consuming and reduces work efficiency.

[0027] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A flexible guiding device for a cigarette box conveying line according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a conveying line 1, on which two sets of symmetrically arranged guiding modules 2 are provided. Each set of guiding modules 2 is provided with a guiding component 3. The guiding component 3 is provided with two sets of buffer components 4. Each set of buffer components 4 is provided with a fixing component 5.

[0028] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The guide assembly 3 includes a guide plate 31. One side of the guide plate 31 has a plurality of equally spaced rotating grooves 32. Each rotating groove 32 is rotatably connected to a guide wheel 33. The side of the guide plate 31 away from the rotating grooves 32 is fixedly connected to two sets of symmetrically arranged guide blocks 34. Each set of guide blocks 34 is fixedly connected to a fixing post 35.

[0029] refer to Figure 5 Each set of buffer components 4 includes a sliding block 41, each sliding block 41 has a buffer chamber 42, each buffer chamber 42 is sealed and slidably connected to a piston plate 43, each piston plate 43 is fixedly connected to a fixing rod 44 at one end near the guide plate 31, each fixing rod 44 is fixedly connected to a fixing block 45 at the other end, each fixing block 45 has a connecting hole 46, and each connecting hole 46 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the corresponding fixing post 35.

[0030] refer to Figure 5 Each sliding block 41 has a vent 47 at the end away from the guide plate 31 that is connected to the buffer chamber 42, and each buffer chamber 42 is connected to the corresponding piston plate 43 by an elastic element 48.

[0031] Air in the buffer chamber 42 is slowly discharged through the vent 47, forming a damping buffer. (Reference) Figure 5 To prevent the smoke box from being damaged by rigid collisions, after the smoke box passes through, the elastic element 48 releases potential energy, pushing the piston plate 43 to reset. At the same time, the buffer chamber 42 generates negative pressure, drawing in air through the vent 47, and the auxiliary guide plate 31 quickly returns to its original position.

[0032] refer to Figure 6 The fixing component 5 includes a fixing member 51. The side of the fixing member 51 near the guide plate 31 is fixedly connected to the body of the conveyor line 1. The end of the fixing member 51 near the sliding block 41 is fixedly connected to a sliding member 52. The sliding block 41 is slidably connected inside the sliding member 52.

[0033] refer to Figure 6 The sliding member 52 has a threaded hole 53 at the end away from the fixed member 51. A stud 54 is rotatably connected in the threaded hole 53. The stud 54 is used to limit the sliding of the sliding block 41.

[0034] The rotating stud 54 presses against the sliding block 41, achieving tool-free quick fixation and replacing traditional bolt disassembly.

[0035] It should be noted that during the initial debugging, the sliding block 41 can be fixed by rotating the stud 54, so that the staff can adjust the width of the expansion of the guide plate 31 according to the smoke box, so that the guide wheel 33 contacts the outer wall of the smoke box, ensuring that the smoke box moves stably at the center of the conveyor line 1, and the guide module 2 can be fixed more quickly, which is conducive to the normal use of the guide module 2.

[0036] The guide wheel 33 is made of wear-resistant and flexible polyurethane material.

[0037] In actual use, when the production line switches products, the size of the smoke box will also change. When the smoke box passes through the guide module 2 from the conveyor line 1, the outer wall of the smoke box will touch the guide wheels 33 on the guide plates 31 on both sides, causing the guide wheels 33 to rotate with the movement of the smoke box and squeeze the guide plates 31 to expand to both sides. This causes the fixed rod 44 to drive the piston plate 43 to move in the buffer chamber 42 and compress the elastic element 48, so that the air in the buffer chamber 42 can be slowly discharged from the vent hole 47, thus playing a flexible buffering role. When the guide plates 31 on both sides expand to both sides, they will also apply a certain force to the outside of the smoke box, which will keep the smoke box moving in the center direction of the conveyor line 1. After the smoke box passes, the guide plates 31 have no force to block it, which will cause the compressed elastic element 48 to rebound and push the piston plate 43 to move, creating a negative pressure in the buffer chamber 42, allowing the outside air to enter the buffer chamber 42 from the vent hole 47, and simultaneously causing the guide plates 31 to return to their original shape.

[0038] In summary, by setting up the guide assembly 3 and the buffer assembly 4, on the one hand, when the cigarette box passes through the guide module 2, it squeezes the guide plate 31 to expand to both sides, causing the fixed rod 44 to drive the piston plate 43 to move in the buffer chamber 42, and causing the elastic element 48 to be compressed, so that the air in the buffer chamber 42 can be slowly discharged from the vent 47, thus playing a flexible buffering role. On the other hand, when the guide plates 31 on both sides expand to both sides, they will also apply a certain force to the outside of the cigarette box, so that the cigarette box will move in the center direction of the conveyor line 1, thus accommodating various cigarette box sizes, avoiding the need to manually adjust the spacing of the guide module 2, and improving production efficiency.

[0039] Finally: The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
