[0002] The volatile components in cigarette tobacco are various in type and widely distributed in content, and have great differences among different cigarettes, and have important influence on the sensory quality and style characteristics of products. With the wide application of auxiliary material flavoring technology such as cigarette paper flavoring, formed paper flavoring, tobacco adhesive flavoring and packaging material flavoring in cigarette production, the influence of volatile components in auxiliary materials on the style characteristics of cigarette products has been increasingly concerned by researchers. Obtaining cigarette volatile components not only helps to understand the formation trend of cigarette product style characteristics, but also provides theoretical reference for product design and processing technology. In order to obtain cigarette volatile components, researchers generally classify and detect tobacco and various auxiliary materials, but this method is time-consuming and laborious, and the data obtained has poor comparability.
[0003] The patent with the application publication number CN104713965A discloses a tobacco volatile and semi-volatile flavor component extraction method, and also discloses a tobacco volatile and semi-volatile flavor component extraction device, which comprises a gas pump, a sample bottle, a temperature-controlled water bath heating pot, an air inlet pipe, an air outlet pipe and a trapping pipe. The gas pump is provided with a first air inlet and a first air outlet. The sample bottle is located in the temperature-controlled water bath heating pot, and is provided with a second air inlet and a second air outlet.

In this way, the filter cartridge and the sample bottle can be screw-connected and detached, facilitating the placement and removal of the tobacco.
[0009] Further, the outlet end of the air inlet pipe and the fixed disc are on a vertical line. When the air flow from the air pump enters the wind power regulation cavity from the outlet end of the air inlet pipe, the outlet end of the air inlet pipe and the fixed disc are on a vertical line, which can uniformly blow the wind to the wind blades, so that the wind blades can rotate at a lower wind speed.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:
[0017] When the present application is used, the air flow pumped by the air pump passes through the air inlet pipe, is sprayed from the horn mouth into the wind power adjusting cavity of the sample bottle, and when the air flow enters the wind power adjusting cavity, blows the wind blades, so that the wind blades rotate under the blowing of the air flow sprayed from the horn mouth. Because the length of each wind blade is not equal, when the fixed disc rotates, it will drive the wind blades to blow the bearing plate at a non-uniform speed. In this way, the non-uniform wind power passes through the first ventilation hole to blow the tobacco on the bearing plate. Because the wind power received by the tobacco on the bearing plate is large and small, and the weight of each part of the tobacco is not completely uniform, the tobacco will continuously roll up and down in the containing cavity under the condition of large and small wind blowing and uneven gravity. In the up and down rolling, the tobacco is heated more uniformly in the sample bottle, and basically each part can be swept by the wind power, so that the volatile components in the tobacco can be more quickly released, and the sweeping and capturing efficiency of the volatile components of the tobacco is higher.

[0030] The use method of the present application is as follows:
[0031] Before use, the tobacco to be extracted of volatile components is placed in the accommodating cavity 7 of the sample bottle 2, and the tobacco is laid on the bearing plate 5 with the first ventilation hole 6, and then the filter cartridge 15 is screwed onto the sample bottle 2, so that the filter cartridge 15 and the sample bottle 2 are threadedly connected through the first inner thread and the first outer thread.
