Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tobacco leaf baling equipment technology, and in particular to a novel intelligent baling machine. Background Technology

[0002] During the tobacco leaf baling process, tobacco leaves are loose, large in volume, and easily scattered. Traditional baling equipment often suffers from the following problems: First, the feeding stage lacks a stable material receiving and guiding structure, causing tobacco leaves to easily fly and scatter when tilted, resulting in material loss; second, the compaction mechanism does not exert enough pressure on the loose tobacco leaves, resulting in the tobacco leaves still having a large volume after baling, which is not conducive to storage and transportation; third, the recycling of empty material baskets relies on manual operation, with low automation, affecting the overall baling efficiency; and it is difficult to adapt to the continuous operation requirements of tobacco leaf baling. Therefore, a new type of intelligent baling machine is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present invention aims to provide an intelligent tobacco leaf baling machine to solve the problems of material scattering, poor compaction effect, and low automation of empty basket recycling in existing tobacco leaf baling equipment, so as to realize automated and efficient tobacco leaf baling operations.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above problems is as follows: A novel intelligent packaging machine includes a main frame, a conveyor for conveying material baskets on the outer side of the main frame, a movable frame on the main frame, a clamping and rotating mechanism on the movable frame for clamping and rotating the material baskets to pour the material into a material chamber, a material chamber cylinder for driving the displacement of the material chamber, a compaction mechanism for compacting the material in the material chamber and a packing mechanism for pushing the compacted material into a bag, a bag outlet on the side of the main frame opposite to the packing mechanism, and a basket receiving assembly on the other side of the conveyor opposite to the main frame.

[0005] Furthermore, a slide assembly is provided on both sides above the material cavity. When the drive head of the material cavity cylinder extends and retracts, it drives the material cavity to reciprocate on the main frame so that the material cavity reaches the compaction position or the receiving position.

[0006] Furthermore, the main frame is also provided with a second drive device for moving the movable frame, and the movable frame is provided with a first drive device for moving the clamping and rotating mechanism up and down.

[0007] Furthermore, the clamping and rotating mechanism includes a rotating disk with a driving component on it. The driving component is used to drive the clamping arm to clamp and release the material basket.

[0008] Furthermore, a hopper is provided above the material chamber, and one side of the hopper is connected to a flipping device provided on the main frame. The flipping device drives the hopper to flip so as to pour the material into the material chamber.

[0009] Furthermore, the compaction mechanism includes a fixed plate fixed on the main frame, a third drive device is mounted on the fixed plate, and the drive head of the third drive device is fixedly connected to a pressure plate for compacting the material.

[0010] Furthermore, the pushing mechanism includes a fixed base, on which a fourth driving device is provided for pushing the compacted material into the outlet.

[0011] Furthermore, the lifting assembly includes a lifting door that is fixedly connected to the drive head of the fifth drive device, which can drive the lifting door to rise and fall when the drive head of the fifth drive device extends and retracts.

[0012] Furthermore, the receiving basket assembly is used to receive empty material baskets. The receiving basket assembly includes a receiving frame, on which a receiving arm, a rotating disk, and a sixth driving device are provided.

[0013] Furthermore, the first driving device, the second driving device, the third driving device, the fourth driving device, the fifth driving device, the sixth driving device, and the material chamber cylinder are pneumatic cylinders or hydraulic cylinders.

Detailed implementation method: The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, and the technical solution of the present invention will be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0021] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model discloses a novel intelligent baling machine with a main frame 1 as the overall support frame. A conveyor 3 for conveying material baskets 2 is installed on the outside of the main frame 1. The main frame 1 is equipped with a movable frame 4, which is equipped with a clamping and rotating mechanism. This mechanism can first clamp the material basket 2 and then move it to the material cavity 11 and rotate it, thereby pouring the material in the basket into the material cavity 11 on the main frame 1. Since the tobacco leaves and other materials are fluffy and bulky, the main frame 1 is specially equipped with a compaction mechanism to squeeze and compact the fluffy material collected in the material cavity 11 to reduce the volume. At the same time, the main frame 1 is also equipped with a pushing mechanism to push out the compacted material bag. The side of the main frame 1 opposite to the pushing mechanism has a bag outlet 5 for outputting the compacted tobacco leaves and other material bags.

[0022] The structural design of the material chamber 11 has been further optimized. Slide assemblies 102 are specially installed on both sides of its upper part. These slide assemblies 102 mainly serve as guides and limiters, providing track support for the stable movement of the material chamber 11. The material chamber cylinder 101 connected to the material chamber 11 has a drive head that can extend and retract. When the drive head extends or retracts, it directly drives the material chamber 11 to reciprocate along the slide assemblies 102 on both sides of the upper part on the main frame 1. Through this movement, the material chamber 11 can be controlled to switch to two key positions on the main frame 1: when it needs to receive loose materials such as tobacco leaves poured from the clamping and rotating mechanism, the material chamber 11 will move to the "receiving position" driven by the material chamber cylinder 101; when the receiving is completed and the material needs to be compacted and its volume reduced, the material chamber 11 will move to the "compacting position" driven by the material chamber cylinder 101 along the slide assembly 102, so that the subsequent compaction mechanism can precisely compress the loose material in the material chamber 11.

[0023] The main frame 1 is additionally equipped with a dedicated second drive device 402. The function of this device is to drive the moving frame 4 to move radially (usually referring to linear movement along a specific direction). Through this movement, the horizontal or corresponding directional position of the moving frame 4 on the main frame 1 can be flexibly adjusted to ensure that the clamping and rotating mechanism on the moving frame 4 can accurately align with the material baskets 2 at different positions on the conveyor 3. At the same time, the moving frame 4 itself is also equipped with a first drive device 401. The function of this device is to drive the clamping and rotating mechanism to move vertically. The height of the clamping and rotating mechanism can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual height of the material baskets 2 so that the clamping and rotating mechanism can successfully clamp the material baskets 2 at different heights, thereby completing the subsequent rotation and tilting action.

[0024] In the specific structure of the clamping and rotating mechanism, its core component includes a rotating disk 201. The rotating disk 201 is not only the basic load-bearing structure for the clamping and rotating mechanism to achieve rotation, but also provides an installation carrier for subsequent clamping operations. The rotating disk 201 is specially equipped with a drive component 202. The core function of this drive component 202 is not to directly act on the material basket 2, but to complete the key operation of the material basket 2 by driving the clamping arm 203 in the clamping and rotating mechanism. When it is necessary to fix the material basket 2 for subsequent rotation and tilting, the drive component 202 will drive the clamping arm 203 to tighten towards the material basket 2, so as to achieve a stable clamping of the material basket 2 and prevent it from falling off or shifting during rotation. When the loose materials such as tobacco leaves in the material basket 2 have been tilted into the material cavity 11, the drive component 202 will drive the clamping arm 203 to open in the opposite direction, so as to relax the material basket 2, so that the empty material basket 2 can be returned to the conveyor 3 or for the next cycle of material loading. At the same time, the rotating disk 201 can cooperate to complete the overall angle adjustment, providing a suitable rotation trajectory for material tilting.

[0025] A hopper can be installed directly above the material chamber 11. This hopper serves as a temporary receiving and transition component for loose materials such as tobacco leaves. It can pre-accommodate the material to be conveyed to the material chamber 11, preventing the material from scattering or flying during the transfer process. At the same time, one side of the hopper is connected to a tilting device fixedly installed on the main frame 1. This tilting device has the function of providing directional tilting driving force. When enough loose materials such as tobacco leaves are collected in the hopper, the tilting device will start and output driving force, causing the hopper to tilt around the connection point between the two, so that the opening of the hopper turns from the initial upward state to the direction of the material chamber 11, thereby pouring the loose material temporarily stored in the hopper completely and accurately into the material chamber 11, providing a stable material base for the subsequent compaction mechanism to squeeze and reduce the volume of the material.

[0026] In the specific structure of the compaction mechanism, it first includes a fixed plate 301 fixedly installed on the main frame 1. The fixed plate 301 serves as the basic support structure of the compaction mechanism, providing a stable mounting carrier and force support for subsequent components, and preventing component displacement due to vibration or force during the compaction process. The fixed plate 301 is specially equipped with a third drive device 302, which is the core power source for the compaction action and can output continuous and stable driving force. At the same time, the drive head of the third drive device 302 is firmly connected to a pressing plate 303. When the material cavity 11 is filled with loose materials such as tobacco leaves and moves to the compaction position, the third drive device 302 will be activated. The drive head drives the pressing plate 303 to move towards the material in the material cavity 11. The pressing plate 303 and the material cavity 11 are used to squeeze the loose material, eliminating the gaps between the materials to achieve volume reduction and compaction, preparing for the subsequent pushing mechanism to push out the formed material bag.

[0027] In the specific structure of the packing mechanism, there is a fixed seat 501 as a basic support component. The fixed seat 501 is usually installed on one side of the main frame 1 corresponding to the compaction position, and is at the same level or on the corresponding work line as the packing outlet 5. Its main function is to provide a stable installation platform for the subsequent power components and avoid the impact of component shaking on the pushing accuracy during the packing process. The fixed seat 501 is specially equipped with a fourth drive device 502, which is the core power source for the packing action. It can output directional linear driving force. In some cases, a push plate (adapted to the size of the material pack and increased pushing contact area) is connected to the power output end of the fourth drive device 502. After the compaction mechanism completes the compaction of loose materials such as tobacco leaves in the material cavity 11 to form a shaped material pack, the fourth drive device 502 will be activated. Through the power output end (or driving the push plate), it will apply a pushing force to the material pack in the material cavity 11, and accurately push the compacted material pack into the preset packing outlet 5 on the main frame 1, completing the packing process of the entire packing process.

[0028] In the specific structural composition of the lifting assembly, its core includes two key components: the lifting door 601 and the fifth drive device 602. The drive heads of the lifting door 601 and the fifth drive device 602 are assembled together in a fixed manner (usually a rigid connection), forming a direct linkage structure of "power source-actuator." The fifth drive device 602, as the dedicated power source for the lifting door 601 to achieve its lifting and lowering action, can output linear driving force through the reciprocating extension and retraction of its own drive head. When the drive head of the fifth drive device 602 extends outward... This will directly drive the lifting door 601, which is fixed to it, to move upward synchronously. When the drive head retracts inward, it will pull the lifting door 601 to move downward synchronously. Through this linkage of "extension-lifting", the opening and closing state of the lifting door 601 can be flexibly controlled. For example, when the material is poured into the material cavity 11 of the material receiving position, the lifting door 601 rises and opens to avoid blocking the material from entering. During the operation of the compaction mechanism or the pushing process, the lifting door 601 falls and closes to ensure the sealing of the material cavity 11 and prevent the material from scattering, thereby cooperating with the stable operation of the overall packaging process.

[0029] The core power components of the first drive device 401, the second drive device 402, the third drive device 302, the fourth drive device 502, the fifth drive device 602, and the material chamber cylinder 101 are all cylinders or hydraulic cylinders. These components typically consist of a cylinder body, a piston, and a piston rod. A cylinder uses compressed air pressure to push the piston, causing the piston rod to extend and retract. A hydraulic cylinder relies on hydraulic oil pressure to drive the piston, achieving the reciprocating motion of the piston rod. Both can output a stable linear driving force. Specifically, whether it's the first drive device 401 driving the clamping and rotating mechanism to move up and down, or the second drive device 402 driving the moving frame 4 to move radially... The drive unit 402, which is also the third drive unit 302 that pushes the pressing plate 303 to compact the material, the fourth drive unit 502 that pushes the material bag into the bag outlet 5, the fifth drive unit 602 that controls the lifting door 601 to rise and fall, and the material chamber cylinder 101 that makes the material chamber 11 reciprocate between the receiving position and the compaction position, all convert fluid pressure energy into mechanical kinetic energy through the extension and retraction of the piston rod of the cylinder or hydraulic cylinder, so as to accurately realize their respective corresponding linear drive actions and meet the power requirements of each link of the baler (the cylinder or hydraulic cylinder can be selected as the specific power source according to the difference in the required thrust and action speed in the actual working conditions).

[0030] On the opposite side of the conveyor 3 relative to the main frame 1, a receiving assembly is specifically designed to receive and transfer empty material baskets 2. This assembly is based on the receiving frame 7 as its supporting structure, providing a stable mounting platform for the receiving arm 701, the rotary table, and the sixth drive assembly. Its overall function differs from the clamping and rotating mechanism that handles full material baskets 2 and the compaction / pushing mechanism that handles materials; it is specifically focused on the recycling and transfer of empty material baskets 2. The receiving arm 701 mounted on the receiving frame 7 is the component that directly contacts the empty material basket. When the clamping and rotating mechanism emptys the tobacco leaves from the empty material basket 2, the receiving arm 701 of the receiving assembly reaches... When the empty material basket 2 is in the corresponding position, the receiving arm 701 will first extend or adjust its position to catch the empty material basket; at the same time, the sixth drive component, as the power source, will work in conjunction with the rotary table - on the one hand, drive the receiving arm to complete the lifting and lowering action (when catching the empty basket, it should be lowered appropriately to fit the bottom of the empty basket, and after receiving it, it should be raised to move away from the material cavity); on the other hand, drive the rotary table to rotate to adjust the orientation of the receiving arm 701 and the empty material basket 2, ensuring that the empty material basket 2 can be aligned with the feeding direction of the rear conveyor, and finally place the empty material basket 2 smoothly on the rear conveyor, completing the recycling of the empty material basket 2 and preparation for subsequent circulation.

[0031] The operation of this novel intelligent baling machine is as follows: Conveyor 3 conveys a material basket 2 containing tobacco leaves; second drive device 402 drives the moving frame 4 to adjust its position; first drive device 401 adjusts the height of the clamping and rotating mechanism; drive component 202 controls the clamping arm 203 to clamp the material basket 2; rotating disk 201 drives the material basket 2 to flip and dump material (or the hopper flips and dumps material via the flipping device) to the material chamber 11; then the basket arm 701 catches the empty material basket 2; the clamping arm releases the material basket 2; the sixth drive device cooperates with the rotating disk to lift, lower, and rotate, placing the empty material basket 2 onto the rear conveyor; the material chamber cylinder 101 drives the material chamber 11 along the slide to the compaction position; the third drive device 302 pushes the pressing plate 303 to compact the material; after compaction, the fourth drive device 502 pushes the bale into the bale outlet 5; the fifth drive device 602 controls the lifting door 601 to open and close; all drive devices and the material chamber cylinder 101 are powered by cylinders or hydraulic cylinders.
