Smoke Box Automatic Cleaning Technology and System

Abstract

The automatic cleaning process and system of the smoke box is to transport the smoke box to the cleaning system, use the visual detection device (5) to detect the bottom of the box, judge whether it needs to be cleaned, and identify the position of the residual material in the box; the smoke box that does not need to be cleaned It is directly sent out of the cleaning system, and the smoke box to be cleaned is transported to the smoke box turning station; the smoke box is turned 90-150° with the turning machine (6), so that the box mouth faces the cleaning robot (7); the cleaning robot will clean the claws (7c-2) stretches into the box for cleaning, and sweeps the residual material onto the residual material conveying belt conveyor (8), and then transports it to the recovery box (9); the turning machine turns over the cleaned smoke box and sends it to Go back to the visual inspection device station for re-inspection; the re-inspected smoke boxes are transported out of the cleaning system, and the unqualified ones are transported to the flipping station for secondary cleaning, or directly transported to the manual cleaning station for cleaning. The invention can complete the automatic cleaning of the smoke box for storing shredded leaves and blades.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of a process and system for detecting residual materials inside a storage box of tobacco leaves or shredded leaves and automatically cleaning them. Background technique [0002] In order to ensure the cleanliness of the inside of the box in the tobacco industry, it is necessary to clean the inside of the box after use or before use. Due to the large volume of the box, manual cleaning is required. It is more complicated, labor-intensive and has artificial unsafe factors. Therefore need a kind of system that can automatically clean the inside of the casing. In order to improve production efficiency and production quality, avoid repeated cleaning of clean boxes, or ensure that the cleaned boxes are clean, it is also necessary to test the cleanliness of the boxes. In addition, the materials stored in the box may be of different brands. When cleaning and recycling, it is necessary to classify and recycle the re...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, for the large-scale boxes that store tobacco leaves, tobacco sheets and other materials, the internal cleaning method is mainly manual cleaning. Although some auxiliary tools, such as vacuum cleaners, are also used during cleaning, they are all based on manual cleaning. High labor intensity, it is difficult to realize automatic operation

In response to this deficiency, some industries currently use industrial robots to complete the automatic cleaning inside the box, but the robots used are generally multi-joint general-purpose robots, which have high investment costs, complex technologies, and low work efficiency.

Moreover, the function of the cleaning tool is too simple, mainly to install a brush or a brush roller on the end claw of the robot. During use, it is inevitable that the brush will shed hair. In some industries with food-grade cleanliness requirements Not available

In addition, these devices lack an effective residual material detection device, and cannot effectively detect the cleanliness inside the box. They can only clean all the boxes, which reduces the working efficiency of the system. At the same time, it is impossible to clean the cleaned boxes. Re-inspection, it is difficult to reliably ensure that the bins that have been cleaned and put back into service are clean

In addition, the existing cleaning system does not have the function of automatic classification and recycling of residual materials, which limits the effective recycling of residual materials
