[0002] Tobacco refers to the leaves of the Nicotiana plant of the Solanaceae family, and can also refer to dried tobacco products made from these leaves. Tobacco is commonly used to make smoking products such as cigarettes, cigars, and pipe tobacco. There are many types of tobacco leaves, and different varieties of tobacco leaves differ in taste, smell, and burning characteristics. Therefore, in the production of tobacco products, it is crucial to choose the right type of tobacco leaves. Tobacco storage refers to the storage of tobacco leaves under specific environmental conditions to maintain their quality and shelf life.

[0003] In the prior art, tobacco leaves are stored when needed. When storing tobacco leaves, attention should be paid to the humidity during storage.

[0025] See also Figure 1-3: Circulation grooves 51 are provided on both sides of the storage box 1.

The storage box 1 can connect the fan 52 and the filter 53 through the two circulation grooves 51, and the operation of the fan 52 can speed up the flow rate of the air inside the storage box 1, so that the air inside the storage box 1 can flow out smoothly, and the external air can flow into the storage box 1 through the other circulation groove 51. When the air flows into the storage box 1, it will be filtered by the filter 53, thereby reducing the situation where a large amount of external dust enters the storage box 1. At the same time, the circulation of air inside the storage box 1 makes it convenient and smooth enough for the tobacco leaves inside the storage box 1 to be kept dry to a certain extent, and it is not easy to be over-dried.

[0029] See also Figure 6 A card slot 121 is provided on one side of the closing block 83, and a card block 122 is connected to one side of the stop block 84. The card block 122 is arranged on the inner side of the card slot 121. The stop block 84 can install and fix the card block 122. After the card block 122 is inserted into the inside of the card slot 121, the stop block 84 can further limit the use of the closing block 83 and further reduce the possibility of the closing block 83 tilting.

[0030] See also Figure 1-6: A block 6 is connected to the inner side of the storage box 1, and the block 6 is arranged on the upper side of the humidity detector 22. A limiting ring block 9 is also connected to the inner side of the storage box 1, and the limiting ring block 9 is arranged on the outer side of the rotating rod 32. A baffle 7 is connected to the upper side of the feed pipe 23. The block 6 can play a certain shielding role on the humidity detector 22, so that the water source sprayed by the atomizing spray head 38 is not easy to adhere to the outer side of the humidity detector 22 in large quantities, thereby reducing the detection error caused by the adhesion of a large amount of water mist to the outer side of the humidity detector 22. The limiting ring block 9 can increase the stability of the rotating rod 32 during use through the connection between itself and the storage box 1, and reduce the tilting of the rotating rod 32 during use. The baffle 7 can close the feed pipe 23, so that when the staff do not need to add tobacco leaves, external objects are not easy to slide into the interior of the storage box 1 through the feed pipe 23.

[0031] It should be noted that: one end of the pull rod 111 is screwed to the closing block 83, the other end of the pull rod 111 passes through the fixed plate 81, the end of the pull rod 111 away from the closing block 83 is screwed to the pull block 112, the outer side of the pull rod 111 is slidingly inserted into the fixed plate 81, one side of the clamping block 122 is screwed to the abutment block 84, the outer side of the clamping block 122 is movably inserted into the closing block 83 through the clamping groove 121, one side of the stop block 6 is screwed to the storage box 1, one side of the limit ring block 9 is screwed to the storage box 1, the inner side of the limit ring block 9 is slidingly sleeved on the rotating rod 32, and the inner side of the baffle 7 is movably inserted into the feed pipe 23.

[0032] Working principle: When the utility model is used, the staff can place the tobacco leaves to be stored into the storage box 1 through the feed pipe 23, and connect the baffle 7 to the inside of the feed pipe 23 after placement. When the tobacco leaves are stored, the staff can observe the humidity inside the storage box 1 through the humidity detector 22, and detect and observe the temperature inside the storage box 1 through the temperature display 21. When the humidity inside the storage box 1 needs to be humidified, the staff can start the servo motor 31 and the pump body 36. The pump body 36 can pump the water source inside the water tank 34 into the connecting pipe 23 through its own operation. The inside of the block 37 is filled with water, and the water source is sprayed out by the atomizing spray head 38. The servo motor 31 will drive the rotating rod 32 and the stirring block 33 to rotate when in operation, and drive the tobacco leaves to turn over, so that the tobacco leaves can be evenly humidified when the atomizing spray head 38 atomizes and sprays the water source. At the same time, when placed in daily storage, the fan 52 will accelerate the outflow of air inside the storage box 1 through its own operation, and allow external air to flow into the storage box 1 from the inside of another circulation groove 51, thereby realizing the circulation of air inside the storage box 1 and achieving the dry effect of storing and maintaining the tobacco leaves.
