Problems solved by technology

[0005] 1. When mixed with tobacco and other raw materials in the silk mixing cabinet, the stalk particles will concentrate at the bottom of the silk mixing cabinet, forming "layers", and it is difficult to mix evenly
[0006] 2. The distribution of stalk particles in the cigarette is difficult to be uniform, which affects the taste
[0007] 3. When the stalk particles are distributed at the end of the cigarette, it will cause "end wiping" and affect the quality of the cigarette
[0008] 4. During the crushing and granulation process, the stalk particles stick to each other, making it difficult to sieve and difficult to realize the project
[0010] Application No. 200810154171.4 has the following problems: 1. cut the tobacco stems into 0.12-0.3 mm stem slices and then expand them at high temperature. At this time, the stem slices are thin and the expansion of the stem slices is limited; Large crushing; ③The equipment is complicated and the cost is high; ④The finished stem shreds have a lot of woodiness and miscellaneous gas

Embodiment 1

[0032] The invention relates to a preparation process of cigarette expanded stalks. The expanded tobacco stalks with an expansion degree of more than 150% are rehydrated to balance the water content, sliced, stored, shredded, microwaved to restore the shape and expansion, rehydrated and flavored to obtain finished stalks. The specific process steps are as follows:

[0033] A. Moisture balance and moisture: rehydrate the expanded tobacco stems to 30% moisture in the moisture regain and balance moisture equipment and balance the moisture. The moisture deviation of the same batch is ≤3%.

[0034] B. Slicing: Cut the rehydrated expanded tobacco stem into expanded stem slices with a thickness of 0.2-0.4mm.

[0035] C. Storage: Store the expanded stalks in a storage cabinet for later use.

[0036] D. Shred: cut the expanded stalks in step C into stalks with a width of 0.2-0.4mm and a length of 5-6mm, that is, the cross-sectional size is 0.2-0.4mm×0.2-0.4mm, and the length is 5-6mm ...

Embodiment 2

[0041] Send the expanded stalks prepared according to the patent ZL03117228.8 "Tobacco stem pretreatment process" into the moisture conditioner to rehydrate to 15% moisture, and balance the moisture in the storage cabinet. The moisture deviation of the same batch of tobacco stems is ≤3%; The final expanded tobacco stems are continuously cut into thin slices with a thickness of 1.4-1.8mm on the shredder, and then sent to the storage cabinet for storage; they are continuously fed into the shredder and cut into thin strips with a width of 1.4-1.8mm, that is, the cross-sectional size is 1.4mm. ~1.8mm×1.4~1.8mm, 16~20mm in length; then the stalks are continuously sent to the microwave heating equipment through the quantitative tube to dry until the water content is 8~10%; finally sent to the moisture regain and flavoring machine Flavoring and regaining moisture, the finished product of expanded stalk shreds that can be directly added to cigarettes with a moisture content of 12%±1% i...

Embodiment 3

[0043] Tobacco stems with an expansion degree of more than 150% expanded by the dry ice method are rehydrated to 20% moisture in a moisture reconditioning machine, and the moisture is balanced in a storage cabinet. The moisture deviation of the same batch of tobacco stems is ≤ 3%; The expanded tobacco stems are sent to the continuous shredding machine and cut into thin slices with a thickness of 1mm±0.1mm, then sent to the storage cabinet for storage, and then continuously sent to the shredder to cut into 1mm±0.1mm wide and 10-15mm long stems Silk, that is, the cross-sectional size is (1±0.1)mm×(1±0.1)mm; then it is continuously sent to the microwave heating equipment through the quantitative tube to dry to 5-6% moisture; and finally sent to the moisture-resurrection and aromatherapy machine for moisture-resurrection and aromatherapy to 12% ± 1% moisture, to obtain expanded stem strips that can be directly added to cigarettes.

Abstract

The invention discloses a process for preparing cigarette expanded stem shreds. The process comprises the following steps of: after performing moisture regain on expanded cigarette stems of which the expansion degree is over 150 percent in moisture-regain and moisture-balancing equipment until the water content is 30 percent and balancing the water content, cutting the expanded cigarette stems into expanded stem sheets of which the thickness is 0.2 to 1.8mm; storing the expanded stem sheets in a storage cabinet; cutting the expanded stem sheets into stem shreds of which the width is 0.2to 1.8mm and the length is 5 to 20mm; feeding the stem shreds into microwave heating equipment and drying until the water content is 3 to 4 percent; and feeding into moisture-regain and fragrance-adding equipment and performing moisture regain and fragrance adding to obtain the finished product of the expanded stem shreds of which the water content is 121 percent. The finished product of the expanded stem shreds, which is prepared by the process has high essences and fragrant material adsorption property, contains little wooden smell and other smell, and has obvious fragrance and high processing resistance. After being added in cigarettes, the expanded stem shreds are uniformly distributed and do not affect the smoking taste. The filling value of the expanded stem shreds can be up to 6 to 11cm<3> / g.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a process for processing tobacco additives, in particular to a process for preparing expanded stems that can be directly added to cigarettes. It belongs to the technical field of tobacco processing. Background technique [0002] This application is based on two patents, Patent No. ZL03117228.8 "Pretreatment Process of Tobacco Stems" and Patent No. ZL200510021139.5 "Preparation Method of Cigarette Expansion Stem Particle Filling Material", through further technological innovation. The invention discloses a technical method for expanding cigarette stem strips. [0003] Patent No. ZL031172288.8 relates to a pretreatment process of tobacco stems, using a heat medium to mix tobacco stems and then subjecting them to microwave irradiation to obtain expanded tobacco stems. The expanded tobacco stem cannot be directly added and used in cigarettes, and needs to be further processed before it can be added and used in the cigarette makin...
