The cylindrical support can reduce the hole aligning difficulty during installation; simultaneously, the whole device is lifted, so that the cleaning is convenient, and the hidden danger of tobacco worms caused by residual materials is prevented. And, the use of a plurality of connectors increases the contact area of the housing 30 with the frame 10, and reduces the pressure of the contact surface. Meanwhile, the shell 30 is raised, so that residual materials at the bottom of the shell 30 can be cleaned conveniently.

The poking roller 2 has two movements, one of which is continuous rotation, and the materials are evenly paved on the conveying surface of the conveying belt 1 through rotation. The rotation of the poking roller 2 is driven by a driving mechanism 4. The driving mechanism 4 can adopt various realization modes such as motor driving, chain wheel driving, gear driving and the like. The second is the movement of the shifting roller 2 relative to the conveying surface of the conveyor belt 1, which is not necessarily performed in real time, but only when the height of the material flow stack on the conveyor belt 1, i.e. the material level, changes.

The gear rack 33 is fixedly arranged and the driving wheel 32 is engaged with the gear rack 33. Wherein, the lifting motor drives the driving wheel 32 described above to rotate so as to drive the mounting seat 31 to move relative to the rack 33.
The driving wheel 32 is driven by the lifting motor to rotate, and then the driving wheel 32 moves up and down along the rack 33, and the up and down movement of the driving wheel 32 causes the mounting seat 31 to move up and down, so that the up and down movement of the poking roller 2 is realized. The elevator motor is fixed on the frame 10. The up and down movement of the dial roller 2 changes the pitch of the dial roller 2 with respect to the conveying surface of the conveyor belt 1. In some embodiments, the lifting motor can be replaced by a driving component such as a proportional control cylinder.

The guide rod 342 is fixedly disposed, and the guide rod 342 passes through the second mounting hole 343 of the linear bearing 341. The guide rod 342 and the linear bearing 341 form a fit. The linear bearing 341 moves up and down with the mounting seat 31, and the guide rod 342 is fixed to the frame 10 and does not move therewith. The guide rod 342 may be a straight rod.
Referring to fig. 2 and 3, an implementation of the drive mechanism 4 is described below.
In some embodiments, the drive mechanism 4 includes a first sprocket, a second sprocket, and a chain. The first chain wheel is in driving connection with the poking roller 2 so as to drive the poking roller 2 to rotate. The second chain wheel is in driving connection with the driving source. The chain is wound around the first sprocket and the second sprocket to transmit the rotation of the driving source to the first sprocket via the second sprocket.

In some embodiments, the drive mechanism 4 further comprises a tensioning wheel configured to tension the chain. The chain makes the chain keep certain tensile force all the time through the tensioning sprocket, dials 2 lift in-process at the roller, and the take-up pulley changes the position thereupon. The poking roller 2 is arranged at different positions, and the tensioning wheel is always kept in a tensioning state under the action of the tension spring, so that the chain is kept at the tensioning position. Above-mentioned technical scheme for the chain is in the tensioning condition all the time, so that turning moment can be firmly transmitted to first sprocket from the second sprocket.
Considering that the dial roller 2 has a certain length, in order to make the rotation of the dial roller 2 relatively stable, the driving mechanisms 4 may be provided at both ends of the dial roller 2. The two driving mechanisms 4 simultaneously drive the poking roller 2 to rotate. The two drive mechanisms 4 can be implemented identically.
Referring to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the pick roller 2 is located in a middle region of the length direction of the conveyor belt 1. This position is spacious, is convenient for set up and dials roller 2, and dials the quantity of roller 2 and can set up one or more under the condition that satisfies the requirement.
In some embodiments, the running speed of the conveyor belt 1 is configured to be adjustable. The running speed of the conveyor belt 1 can be varied by adjusting the rotational speed of the motor driving the conveyor belt 1 in motion.
The height of the poking roller 2 can be adjusted in real time, and the automatic control of the height of the flow channel can be realized through a control program.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a tobacco feeding system, including a tobacco feeding device and a level detecting element 5 provided in any technical scheme of the present invention. A level detecting element 5 is located downstream of the tobacco feeding device, the level detecting element 5 being configured to detect how much material the tobacco feeding device outputs.
The level detecting element 5 employs, for example, a correlation photoelectric cell, a grating sensor, or the like. The material flow area, namely the height of the poking roller 2 relative to the conveying belt 1 is adjusted according to the detection result of the material level detection element 5.
The limiting tube has three detection positions: a first detection position, a second detection position, and a third detection position. The three positions are detected according to a correlation photoelectric cell. The first detection position, the second detection position and the third detection position respectively correspond to three different material level heights. The third detection position corresponds to the lowest material level, the second detection position corresponds to the middle material level, and the first detection position corresponds to the highest material level. If the material does not block the third detection position, the material detected by the limiting tube is very little, and the lowest material level is not reached. If the material blocks only the third detection position, the limiting tube detects more material than the lowest level. If the material blocks the second detection position and does not block the first detection position, the material detected by the limiting tube is between the intermediate level and the highest level. If the material blocks the first detection position, the limit tube detects that the material is above the maximum level.
Referring to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the tobacco feeding system further comprises a feeder 6 and a vibratory trough 7. The feeder 6 is configured to output material; the vibration trough 7 is positioned at the downstream of the feeding machine 6 and at the upstream of the conveying belt 1, and the vibration trough 7 is configured to uniformly vibrate the materials and then convey the materials to the conveying belt 1. The feeder 6 and the vibration trough 7 can adopt the existing structure.
The feeding speed of the feeder 6 is configured to be adjustable. In the whole system, the motor frequency of the bottom belt of the feeding machine 6, the motor frequency of the conveying belt 1 and the distance between the poking roller 2 and the conveying belt 1 can be controlled through the height of the material detected by the limiting tube, so that the material uniformly and stably enters the limiting tube all the time in the material conveying process. When the volume weight of the material changes, the frequency of a bottom belt motor of the cabinet type feeder 6, the frequency of a conveyer belt 1 motor and the distance between a poking roller 2 and the conveyer belt 1 of the device can be automatically adjusted according to the height of the material in a limiting pipe and the accumulated time of material poking in unit time.
As introduced above, due to the processing requirements of blended cigarettes, the physical property difference between different tobacco block raw materials is large, particularly between burley tobacco leaves and common tobacco leaves, the volume weight of the burley tobacco leaves and the common tobacco leaves, namely the weight ratio of materials in unit volume, reaches 2.1: 1. Meanwhile, due to the fact that the discharging uniformity of the cabinet type feeding machine 6 is poor, the actual moisture of the materials fluctuates, the volume flow difference exceeds 50% under the condition of different materials and the same flow requirement, the flow cannot meet the production requirement easily due to the huge fluctuation of the volume flow, and material blockage is caused easily, so that normal production is influenced.
By adopting the tobacco leaf feeding system provided by the technical scheme, the phenomenon of uneven discharging in the above situation can be effectively improved, and the system is also suitable for other materials with large specific gravity difference. The system can realize the translation of the material homogenizing poking roller 2 in the direction vertical to the material conveying direction, and the distance between the bottom of the poking roller 2 and the belt surface of the conveying belt 1 is adjusted according to the material condition at the position of the limiting pipe and the material condition in front of the poking roller 2; and one or more of the feeding speed of the feeder 6 and the conveying speed of the conveyor belt 1 can be adjusted as required. And, realized the even stability of cabinet type feeding machine 6 feed, can be according to the volume flow that the on-the-spot condition adjustment passed through in the unit interval to the material that keeps entering limit pipe department is even stable, prevents the emergence of putty phenomenon, guarantees product quality, improves sense organ quality. When the volume weight of the material changes suddenly or the difference is large, the material entering the limiting tube can still meet the requirement of production flow, and the entering material is uniform and stable, so that the quantitative feeding of the material behind the cabinet type feeding machine 6 is realized, the working stability of subsequent processing equipment is ensured, and the sensory quality is improved.
Referring to fig. 4, still other embodiments of the present invention provide a method for controlling a tobacco feeding device, including the steps of:
and step S100, detecting the material level on the conveying belt 1.
And S200, adjusting the distance between the poking roller 2 and the conveying surface of the conveying belt 1 according to the material level, wherein the distance is positively correlated with the material level.
In some embodiments, the running speed of the conveyor belt 1 is controlled in the following manner: if the material level is less than the first set value, increasing the running speed of the conveyer belt 1 and/or the feeding speed of the feeder 6; if the material level is larger than the first set value, the running speed of the conveyer belt 1 is reduced and/or the feeding speed of the feeder 6 is reduced; if the material level is greater than the second set value and less than the first set value, the running speed of the conveyer belt 1 and/or the feeding speed of the feeder 6 are/is kept; if the material level is greater than the third set value and less than the second set value, increasing the running speed of the conveyer belt 1 and/or increasing the feeding speed of the feeder 6; if the level is less than the third set point, the running speed of the conveyor belt 1 is increased and/or the feeding speed of the feeder 6 is increased. The first set value is larger than the second set value, and the second set value is larger than the third set value.
In some embodiments, the spacing between the pick roller 2 and the conveying surface of the conveyor belt 1 is controlled in the following manner: if the material level is larger than the first set value, increasing the distance; if the material level is greater than the second set value and less than the first set value, keeping the distance; if the material level is greater than the third set value and less than the second set value, decreasing the spacing; if the fill level is less than the third set value, the spacing is decreased.
Specific examples are described below. The controlled objects are three: the feeding speed of the feeding machine 6, the conveying speed of the conveying belt 1 and the height of the poking roller 2. The following description is developed one by one.
The feeding speed of the feeder 6 is determined by a bottom belt motor M1 of the feeder 6, and the running speed of the bottom belt motor M1 of the feeder 6 is related to the material level detected by a limiting pipe. The control method of the feeding speed of the feeder 6 comprises the following specific steps:
firstly, a correlation type photoelectric tube is arranged in a certain distance in front of an inlet of the material refining poking roller 2, and the height of the position of the material in the limiting tube, namely the material level, is detected through the correlation type photoelectric tube.
Secondly, a control method for automatically adjusting the motor M1 at the bottom of the cabinet type feeding machine 6 is constructed. The individual parameters are defined as follows: the running frequency of the bottom belt motor is F (M1), and the running frequency interval of the bottom belt motor is F (M1)l~F(M1)hThe frequency automatic adjustment values are three: delta F (M1)l、ΔF(M1)m、ΔF(M1)h. Wherein, Delta F (M1)mBetween Δ F (M1)lAnd Δ F (M1)hIn the meantime.
The limiting tube has three detection positions: when the first detection position PT1, the second detection position PT2 and the third detection position PT3 are not shielded, it is described that the material amount is relatively small, and at this time, the control strategy is as follows: increasing the operating frequency F (M1) of the bottom belt motor by delta F (M1)hTo increase the material delivery.
When the first detecting position PT1 and the second detecting position PT2 of the limiting tube are not shielded and the third detecting position PT3 is shielded, the amount of the material is less, and the control strategy is as follows: increasing the running frequency F (M1) of the bottom belt motor by delta F (M1)mTo increase the feeding amount of the feeder 6.
When the limiting tube has the first detecting position PT1 without being blocked and the second detecting position PT2 and the third detecting position PT3 are blocked, the control strategy is as follows: so that the bottom tape motor operation frequency F (M1) is kept constant, i.e., the feeding speed of the feeder 6 is kept.
When the first detecting position PT1, the second detecting position PT2 and the third detecting position PT3 of the limiting tube are blocked, the material amount is excessive, and the control strategy is as follows: reducing the operating frequency F (M1) of the bottom band motor by Δ F (M1)lTo reduce the feed rate of the feeder 6.
It should be noted that the operating frequency of the bottom belt motor M1 should always be within the interval described above. When the running frequency of the bottom belt motor is automatically adjusted to be equal to or less than F (M1)lWhen the running frequency is too low, the running frequency F (M1) of the bottom tape motor is equal to F (M1)l. When the running frequency of the bottom belt motor is automatically adjusted to be more than or equal to F (M1)hWhen the running frequency is too fast, the running frequency F (M1) of the bottom tape motor should be equal to F (M1)h。
How to adjust the conveying amount of the conveyor belt 1 will be described below. The speed of the conveyed materials can be controlled by controlling the running speed of the motor M3 of the conveyor belt 1. The individual parameters are defined as follows: the running frequency of the conveyer belt motor is F (M3), and the running frequency interval of the conveyer belt motor is F (M3)l~F(M3)hAutomatic frequency regulation value delta F (M3)l、ΔF(M3)m、ΔF(M3)h。ΔF(M3)mBetween Δ F (M3)lAnd Δ F (M3)hIn the meantime.
The control method of the conveyor belt motor M3 is likewise dependent on the fill level detected by the metering tube.
When the first detecting position PT1, the second detecting position PT2 and the third detecting position PT3 of the limiting tube are not shielded, the running frequency F (M3) of the conveyer belt motor is increased by delta F (M3)hI.e. increasing the running speed of the conveyor belt 1 and thus the material conveying capacity.
When the first detecting position PT1 and the second detecting position PT2 of the limiting tube are not shielded and the third detecting position PT3 is shielded, the running frequency F (M3) of the conveyer belt motor is increased by delta F (M3)mI.e. increasing the running speed of the conveyor belt 1 and thus the material conveying capacity.
When the limiting tube is not blocked at the first detecting position PT1 and the second detecting position PT2 and the low level PT1 are blocked, the operation frequency F (M3) of the conveyor motor is kept unchanged, that is, the operation speed of the conveyor 1 is kept.
When the first detecting position PT1, the second detecting position PT2 and the third detecting position PT3 of the limiting tube are all blocked, the running frequency F (M3) of the conveyor belt motor is reduced by delta F (M3)lI.e. the running speed of the conveyor belt 1 is reduced, thereby reducing the material conveying capacity.
It should be noted that the frequency of operation of the conveyor motor should be within the ranges described above. When the running frequency of the conveyer belt motor is automatically adjusted to be equal to or less than F (M3)lWhen the running frequency of the motor of the conveyor belt 1 is too low, the running frequency F (M3) of the motor of the conveyor belt is equal to F (M3)l. When the running frequency of the conveyer belt motor is automatically adjusted to be more than or equal to F (M3)hWhen the running frequency of the motor of the conveyor belt is too high, the running frequency F (M3) of the motor of the conveyor belt (1) is equal to F (M3)h。
Next, a method of adjusting the height of the dial roller 2 will be described. The individual parameters are defined as follows: the real-time height of the poking roller 2 is HnMinimum height of HlThe maximum height is HhThe height adjustment value is Δ H.
When the correlation type photoelectric tube detects that the material stirring time exceeds T1 in T time, the height H of the stirring roller 2nΔ H is increased.
When the correlation photoelectric cell detects that the material stirring time is T2-T1 in T time, the height H of the stirring roller 2nAnd is not changed.
When the correlation photoelectric tube detects that the material-shifting time is lower than T2 in T time, the height H of the shifting roller 2nΔ H is decreased.
It should be noted that the position of the dial roller 2 is always within the interval described above. When the height H of the poking roller 2nAfter automatic adjustment, is equal to or less than HlIt is said that the position of the pick roller 2 is too low, in which case the height H of the pick roller 2 should be such thatnIs equal to Hl. When the height H of the poking roller 2nIs more than or equal to H after automatic adjustmenthWhen the position of the poking roller 2 is too high, the height H of the poking roller 2 should be ensurednIs equal to Hh。
The overall control method comprises the following steps:firstly, defining PLC program control timer delta t1、Δt2、Δt3、Δt4T and TA. When the material level is detected, the control logic of the material level detected by the limiting tube is divided into the following conditions:
(1) when the level detected by the restriction tube is below the third detection position PT 3.

If the timer Δ t elapses1Then, when the material level of the limiting tube is still below the third detection position PT3, the operation frequency F (M1) of the bottom belt motor and the operation frequency F (M3) of the conveyer belt motor are respectively increased by delta F (M1)hAnd Δ F (M3)h. And the process is circulated. If the timer Δ t1The time is started but not ended, the material level rises to the third detection position PT3, and the timer delta t is reset1。
(2) When the material level detected by the limiting tube is between the third detection position PT3 and the second detection position PT2, the material just meets the flow requirement. But there are situations that may be about to fail, the timer Δ t is elapsed2Thereafter, the bottom band motor operating frequency F (M1) is increased by Δ F (M1)mAnd meanwhile, the running frequency F (M3) of the conveyor belt motor is increased by delta F (M3)m. If it passes a timer Δ t2Then, the material level detected by the limiting tube is still between the third detection position PT3 and the second detection position PT2, the operation frequency F (M1) of the bottom belt motor and the operation frequency F (M3) of the conveyer belt motor are respectively increased by delta F (M1)mAnd Δ F (M3)mAnd the process is circulated. If the timer Δ t2The timer is reset to delta t when the timing is started but not finished and the material level is not in the range2。
(3) When the level detected by the restriction tube is between the second detection position PT2 and the first detection position PT 1. This indicates that the material just can meet the flow requirement, and then the timer Δ t is passed3Thereafter, if the level is still between the second detecting position PT2 and the first detecting position PT1, the operation frequency F (M1) of the bottom belt motor and the operation frequency F (M3) of the conveying belt motor are maintained as they areThe frequency operation state is not adjusted. If the timer Δ t3The timer is reset at delta t when the timing is started but not finished and the material level is not in the range3。
(4) When the level detected by the limiting tube is above the first detection position PT 1. This indicates that the material exceeds the flow requirement, a timer Δ t is passed4Thereafter, if the level of the limiter tube is above the first detection position PT1, the device upstream of the limiter tube is immediately stopped, otherwise a blocking phenomenon occurs, and at the same time the operating frequency F (M1) of the lower belt motor is reduced by Δ F (M1)lAnd reducing the running frequency F (M3) of the conveyor belt motor by delta F (M3)l. And the process is circulated. If the timer Δ t4When the timing is started but not finished, the material level is lower than the first detection position PT1, and the timer delta t is reset4。
Aiming at any one of the situations, when the running frequency of the bottom belt motor is automatically adjusted to be equal to or less than F (M1)lWhile, the running frequency F (M1) of the bottom belt motor is equal to F (M1)l. When the running frequency of the bottom belt motor is automatically adjusted to be more than or equal to F (M1)hWhile, the running frequency F (M1) of the bottom belt motor is equal to F (M1)h. Similarly, the same is true of the conveyor motor operating frequency F (M3).
