Embodiment Construction

[0029] exist figure 1 The cigarette production machine 10 shown in includes the dispenser / rod unit 11 and the in- figure 1Only the filter tipping machine 12 is shown schematically, the dispenser / rod unit has a dispenser 13 and a rod unit 25 . The dispenser 13 comprises a tobacco reservoir 14, also called a pannier, which is filled with tobacco material from above. Tobacco is extracted from the tobacco storage 14 by means of an inclined conveyor 15 . The distributor 13 also comprises a stagnation shaft 16 from which the tobacco is extracted by means of a separating device 17 and thus separated, and a screening device 18 for sifting the tobacco, in particular for screening out tobacco material veins in the leaf. The sieving device 18 can be designed as desired; in one embodiment not shown it can be, for example, a meander sieve. The stagnation shaft 16 and the separating device 17 can also be arranged in particular downstream of the screening device 18 , ie downstream.

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for determining the proportion of at least one additive in a substance containing tobacco, comprising a sensor arrangement (29), which is arranged in a measurement relationship to the substance containing tobacco and is designed to operate with at least one electromagnetic alternating field having a first measurement frequency and a second electromagnetic alternating field having a second measurement frequency, which is different from the first measurement frequency, and for the output of signals that contain information from the interaction of the first and second electromagnetic alternating fields with the substance containing tobacco. The device comprises a data-processing apparatus (30), which is designed to determine, by evaluation of the signals fromthe sensor arrangement (29), two independent measurement parameters for each of the at least two measurement frequencies and to determine the moisture, the tobacco proportion, and the proportion of the at least one additive from the at least four determined measurement parameters.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device and a method for determining the proportion of at least one additive in a tobacco-containing material, as well as a machine or plant of the tobacco processing industry comprising such a device. Background technique [0002] Measuring the moisture and / or density of tobacco rods by means of microwaves has already been disclosed. [0003] In the tobacco processing industry, one or more additives, such as glycerin, propylene glycol, flavorings, etc., are added to the tobacco fiber during the production of a defined end product. At present, in particular in online operation, there is no method for determining the proportion of an additive or the proportion of additives. It is therefore not possible to detect the amount of additive supplied, for example in order to regulate the addition process. [0004] This problem concerns not only tobacco fibers processed in cigarette making machines, for example in rod form or as toba...
