Detailed Description

As shown in fig. 1, the full-specification combined cigarette automatic sorting and packaging system of the embodiment includes a cigarette carton pushing module, a conveying module, a packaging module, a labeling module, a detecting module and a rejecting module.

The cigarette carton pushing module comprises a vertical sorting machine 1 which is used for storing and pushing cigarette cartons of different specifications, and the vertical sorting machine 1 is used for reading order data and pushing the cigarette cartons to the conveying module according to the order data. The conveying module comprises a first swing arm conveyor 3, a second swing arm conveyor 5, a main channel 2, an artificial channel 4 and two automatic channels 6, the initial end of the second swing arm conveyor 5 and the artificial channel 4 is arranged in an upper layer and a lower layer, the initial end of the two automatic channels 6 is arranged in an upper layer and a lower layer, the first swing arm conveyor 3 can be connected between the main channel 2 and the second swing arm conveyor 5 in a swinging mode or between the main channel 2 and the artificial channel 4, and the second swing arm conveyor 5 can be connected between the first swing arm conveyor 3 and any one automatic channel 6 in a swinging mode. Two-layer setting about going up can saving the area in letter sorting workshop, and its structure is more compact, improves the space utilization efficiency in letter sorting workshop, is convenient for moreover through the intercommunication or the disconnection between each passageway of first swing arm conveyer 3 and the control of second swing arm conveyer 5.

The packaging module comprises a packaging table 9 and a packaging machine 7, the packaging table 9 is arranged on the manual channel 4 and used for manual packaging, the packaging machine 7 is arranged on the automatic channel 6 and used for automatic packaging, the packaging machine 7 is provided with double inlets, and the double inlets are respectively connected with the two automatic channels 6. The labeling module comprises an automatic labeling machine 10, and the automatic labeling machine 10 is arranged on the automatic channel 6 and is used for labeling the packaged cigarettes. Because the sorting amount of the cigarettes on the manual channel 4 is less than that of the automatic channel 6, the cigarettes can be labeled in a manual labeling mode, the energy consumption of the automatic labeling machine 10 is reduced, and the sorting cost can be saved.

Detection module includes camera 11 and treater 14, the wire is connected between camera 11 and the treater 14, camera 11 is used for taking the strip cigarette photo, treater 14 is used for receiving the photo, it includes motor push rod 12 and push pedal 13 to reject the module, push pedal 13 and motor push rod 12 fixed connection, be used for rejecting outside the conveying module with damaged strip cigarette, the wire is connected between motor push rod 12 and the treater 14, generally, treater 14 still is connected with vertical sorting machine 1 wire, a data information for the strip cigarette that the module was rejected is rejected in the transmission, detection module and rejection module are all established on main channel 2, along the direction that main channel 2 carried, detection module establishes before rejecting the module. The side of the main channel 2 is provided with a collecting box 15, and the collecting box 15 is arranged at the opposite side of the motor push rod 12 and used for collecting damaged cigarettes. In the process of letter sorting, the outer box that has the strip cigarette of minority part has the damage, needs the sorting person to elect to change repackage behind the strip cigarette, increased the work load of sorting person like this, be unfavorable for improving letter sorting efficiency. And adopt detection module detectable to go out damaged strip cigarette, reject the module and can reject damaged strip cigarette, remaining strip cigarette in the letter sorting is carried on packing platform 9, waits for vertical sorting machine 1 to reissue the strip cigarette of letter sorting same specification after, packs by the manual work and pastes the mark, has reduced the latency of machine, has improved letter sorting efficiency.

First swing arm conveyer 3 and first swing arm conveyer 5 are all including cylinder 17, supporting component and conveyer belt 16, cylinder 17 establishes the lower extreme at conveyer belt 16, supporting component connects between cylinder 17 and conveyer belt 16, specifically speaking, the border of conveyer belt 16 is provided with the frame of support, supporting component supports the lower extreme at the frame, supporting component includes connecting seat 18, pivot 19 and bearing frame 20, the lower extreme and the cylinder 17 fixed connection of connecting seat 18, pivot 19 rotationally through connection is in the upper end of connecting seat 18, bearing frame 20 is including two, install bearing 21 on the bearing frame 20, two bearing frame 20 are fixed connection respectively in the both sides of conveyer belt 16 lower extreme, install respectively on bearing 21 at the both ends of pivot 19. So that the air cylinder 17 can support the conveyer belt 16 in balance, and is convenient for conveying the cigarette carton smoothly.

Artifical passageway 4 and automatic passageway 6 all have right angle bend portion, make artifical passageway 4 and automatic passageway 6 all perpendicular with main entrance 2, extend at main entrance 2's side, make things convenient for the packing of letter sorting person, paste the mark and transport the strip cigarette that packs, also can save the use of letter sorting workshop area simultaneously, artifical passageway 4 and automatic passageway 6 all are equipped with heat shrinker 8, be used for toasting shrink strip cigarette packaging film, make the packaging film can hug closely in the outside of strip cigarette, fixed strip cigarette, convenient transportation.

The embodiment of the invention also provides a sorting method adopting the system, which comprises the following steps:
