Heating incombustible cigarette online quality detection equipment and method and production equipment

Abstract

The invention relates to heating incombustible cigarette online quality detection equipment and method and production equipment. The heating incombustible cigarette online quality detection equipmentcomprises a cigarette raw material visual detection device, cigarette appearance visual detection devices and a cigarette end face visual detection device, wherein the cigarette raw material visual detection device is used for detecting cigarette raw material units arranged in order; the cigarette appearance visual detection devices are used for detecting finished cigarettes wrapped in cigarette paper; and the cigarette end face visual detection device is used for detecting filter tip end faces and / or heating end faces of the cigarettes. The detection equipment has the advantages that the appearance quality of the finished cigarettes can be detected simultaneously, and meanwhile the appearance quality of the raw material units inside the cigarettes can be detected; and cameras are adoptedto take pictures of the raw material units before combination and the cigarettes after combination, and by performing analytical processing on the shot pictures, dimensions and other appearance defects of the cigarettes can be detected to eliminate unqualified cigarettes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of quality detection of novel tobacco cigarettes, in particular to an online quality detection device and method for heat-not-burn cigarettes and production equipment. Background technique [0002] In recent years, smokers hope to reduce the health hazards of smoking, and tobacco companies in various countries have accelerated the research and development of new heat-not-burn tobacco. Although heat-not-burn tobacco products are heated by batteries, the main object of heating is traditional tobacco, so the taste is well restored. Unlike traditional cigarettes, "low-temperature cigarettes" designed with "heat-not-burn" in mind can make tobacco leaves just right Heated just enough to bring out the flavor without igniting the tobacco leaves. Normally, ordinary cigarettes will produce many harmful substances when they are smoked at high temperature, while low-temperature cigarettes are mostly below 300°C, and the harmful ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Due to the characteristics of heat-not-burn cigarettes, its rolling process is relatively complicated. The appearance quality of finished cigarettes manufactured by different rolling processes has more or less appearance defects, and the proportion of defects is much higher than that of traditional cigarettes.

Domestic heat-not-burn cigarette rolling equipment is all modified from the equipment used to produce traditional cigarettes. The quality inspection system still uses the original quality inspection system, including four inspection items: short, air leakage, mouth gap, and OTIS. Due to the different manufacturing process of burning cigarettes, the traditional short end detection basically cannot be used. If it is a hollow mouth stick, the mouth gap detection sensor will also have problems. From the actual use effect, the original short end is not suitable for heating non-burning cigarettes. branch detection, the detection effect is poor

Due to the limited detection range and sensitivity of OTIS, it cannot meet the actual requirements. In the actual use of traditional tobacco detection equipment, there are problems such as large rejection, low detection sensitivity, and easy shutdown.

According to the production practice, there are not a few cigarettes with defects in the end faces, defective cigarette raw material units, and defective cigarette rods. The currently used heat-not-burn cigarette production equipment does not have a visual inspection system for the appearance of cigarette end faces, resulting in defective cigarettes. Cigarettes flow into the market, which has a negative impact on the corporate image of cigarette manufacturers
