[0078] Another aspect of this embodiment also relates to a cleaning method (hereinafter referred to as "method"), which is based on the above cleaning device and specifically includes the following steps:

[0079] S1. The outer wall of the bracket 2 is attached to the inner wall of the blanking tower 100.

[0080] S2. Adjust the cleaning mode so that the angle between the cutting edge of the scraper 1 and the inner wall of the blanking tower 100 reaches a preset angle.

[0081] S3. Spray the cleaning water on the inner wall of the blanking tower 100.

[0082] S4. Rotate the cleaning device.

[0083] Further, in step S2, perform step S21. Adjust to the first cleaning mode so that the preset angle is the first preset angle, and the first preset angle is 85° - 90°. Exemplarily, the first preset angle is set to 90°. Move the device back and forth to reduce the adhesion of large pieces of carbon deposits and loosen them and fall off. At the same time, the inner wall of the blanking tower 100 can be sprayed with cleaning water, and the water pressure can be adjusted to improve the cleaning efficiency.

[0084] Further, in step S2, step S22 is executed, adjusting to the second cleaning mode, so that the preset angle is the second preset angle, and the second preset angle is 40° - 45°. Exemplarily, the second preset angle is set to 45°, moving the device forward and backward, and the scraper 1 uses a "shoveling" cleaning method on the inner wall of the blanking tower 100. At this time, the operator can gently use the device to clean the inner wall of the blanking device, which can clean most of the carbon deposits. And in this mode, cleaning water can also be sprayed on the inner wall of the blanking tower 100, and the water pressure is adjusted to improve the cleaning efficiency.

[0085] Further, in step S2, step S23 is executed, adjusting to the third cleaning mode, so that the preset angle is the third preset angle, and the third preset angle is 8° - 12°. Exemplarily, the third preset angle is set to 10°. By spraying cleaning water on the inner wall of the blanking tower 100, the inner wall of the blanking tower 100 is cleaned. At this time, the cleaning water can directly wash against the inner wall. Under the washing action of the water, the inner wall of the tower can be directly rinsed once. Especially under the lubrication of the water, the device can be used to vigorously clean the farthest part of the inner wall of the blanking device to clean the carbon deposits, so as to completely clean the inner wall.

[0086] This method can perform targeted mode adjustment according to the thickness of the carbon deposits on the inner wall and the attachment position of the carbon deposits on the inner wall, completely clean the carbon deposits on the inner wall of the blanking tower 100, significantly reduce the amount of carbon deposits falling into the cut tobacco during the production process, and improve the purity of the cut tobacco.

[0087] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating what the present invention does, rather than limiting the implementation manners of the present invention. For those of ordinary skill in the art, various obvious changes, re-adjustments and substitutions can be made without departing from the protection scope of the present invention. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation manners here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
