Description

Cigarette carton overturning device, cigarette carton overturning system and cigarette carton overturning method Technical Field The present disclosure relates to a rod cigarette turning device, a rod cigarette turning system, and a rod cigarette turning method. Background The construction of the existing cigarette carton conveying apparatus for conveying conventional cigarettes is shown in fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a sectional view perpendicular to a direction of conveyance X of the cigarettes, in which a conveyor belt 2 is provided on a guide rail 3, and a conventional cigarette rod 1 is placed on the conveyor belt 2, and the conveyor belt 2 is driven by a motor, not shown, to move in the direction of conveyance X of the cigarettes, thereby conveying the conventional cigarette rod 1 in the direction X. In a horizontal direction Y perpendicular to the rod-shaped cigarette conveying direction X, the horizontal distance between the two opposite vertical side walls 3A and 3B of the guide rail 3 is slightly larger than the horizontal length of the rod-shaped cigarette 1, so that the conventional rod-shaped cigarette 1 can be smoothly conveyed between the side walls 3A and 3B. As the demand for tobacco increases, the pack size of cigarettes has become diversified in recent years. For example, there are a wide-version medium cigarette 1' and a thin cigarette 1″ shown in fig. 2A, which have lengths in the horizontal direction Y larger than those of the conventional cigarette 1 and larger than the horizontal distance between the side walls 3A and 3B of the guide rail 3 in fig. 1, and thus cannot be transported in a flat state using the cigarette transport apparatus shown in fig. 1. In order to convey the wide-version medium cigarettes 1 'and the fine cigarettes 1″ with the existing cigarette conveying apparatus, it is necessary to convert them from the flat state shown in fig. 2A to the upright state shown in fig. 2B so that the short sides of the wide-version medium cigarettes 1' and the fine cigarettes 1″ are placed on the conveying belt 2 for conveyance. There is therefore a need for a cigarette tipping system that automatically tips cigarettes from a flat condition to an upright condition. Disclosure of Invention According to a first aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a cigarette tipping device, characterized in that the cigarette tipping device includes a tipping plate including a first plate, a second plate, and a third plate, the second plate extending in a horizontal direction in a section perpendicular to a cigarette conveying direction, the first plate extending upward from the second plate, the third plate extending downward from the second plate, a guard plate including a fourth plate extending in a vertical direction in a section perpendicular to the cigarette conveying direction, a fifth plate extending obliquely downward from the fourth plate toward the tipping plate, and a sixth plate extending downward from one end of the fifth plate. Preferably, the roll-over panel further includes a roll-over panel support including a vertical portion and a horizontal portion perpendicular to each other, the vertical portion being fixed to a side of the third panel adjacent to the first panel, the horizontal portion extending in a horizontal direction from the third panel. Preferably, a through hole extending in a horizontal direction is provided on a horizontal portion of the flipping panel support. Preferably, the apron further comprises an apron support comprising a vertical portion and a horizontal portion, which are perpendicular to each other, the vertical portion being fixed to the side of the fourth plate facing away from the roll-over plate, the horizontal portion extending in a horizontal direction from the fourth plate.
