Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tobacco blending equipment technology, specifically a tobacco blending uniformity testing mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Tobacco shreds refer to tobacco products made by cutting tobacco leaves into shreds, granules, flakes, powder, or other shapes, adding auxiliary materials, fermenting and storing them, and selling them for smoking without rolling them. During the tobacco shred processing, the uniformity of the blending of tobacco shreds and auxiliary materials must be tested by testing institutions to ensure the production quality of tobacco shreds.

[0003] Currently, most methods involve conveying tobacco shreds through a conveying mechanism and then detecting the tobacco shreds on the conveying mechanism using an infrared spectrometer. However, the tobacco shreds tend to accumulate on the conveying mechanism, resulting in low accuracy in detecting the uniformity of tobacco blending. Furthermore, it is not convenient to adjust the distance between the infrared spectrometer and the conveying mechanism, leading to poor performance of the detection mechanism and inconvenience for users.
