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

A device for determining the proportion of at least one additive in a tobacco-containing material comprises a sensor set (29) which is arranged in measuring relationship to the tobacco-containing material and is configured to use at least one sensor with a first measurement frequency operating with a first electromagnetic alternating field and at least one second electromagnetic alternating field having a second measurement frequency different from the first measurement frequency, and for outputting information from the first and second electromagnetic alternating fields and tobacco-containing A signal of information about the interaction of the materials. The device comprises a data processing device (30), which is configured to ascertain two independent measurement variables for each of the at least two measurement frequencies by evaluating the signals of the sensor group (29) and to determine from the The tobacco fraction and the fraction of at least one additive are determined from the at least four determined measured variables.

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...
