Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of cigarettes, and particularly relates to a tobacco leaf selection process. BACKGROUND
[0002] The selection of high-price cigarette leaves is an important process link for improving product quality and brand competitiveness. However, the traditional natural balancing (referring to taking out the raw tobacco leaves from a box, placing them in an environment with high temperature and high humidity (environmental temperature 30±2℃, relative humidity 70±5%), increasing the temperature of the tobacco leaves, and increasing the water absorption efficiency of the tobacco leaves, which is beneficial to reducing the difficulty of loosening the tobacco leaves and reducing the tobacco leaf crushing in the subsequent processing) and manual stem picking (referring to manually picking out the stems in the tobacco leaves and manually separating the tobacco leaves and stems to reduce the stem content in the tobacco leaves and improve the quality of the tobacco leaves) methods have problems such as low production efficiency, high energy consumption, low production capacity, and uneven moisture of the tobacco leaves. The formula tobacco leaves need to be balanced for more than 48 hours under the condition of an environmental temperature of 30℃ and a relative humidity of 70%, which not only has high energy consumption and a long processing waiting time, but also under the condition of natural balancing, the core wrapped tobacco leaves still do not absorb enough moisture, and the moisture difference between the surface tobacco leaves and the core wrapped tobacco leaves can reach more than 2%, which is poor in moisture uniformity and brings quality risks to the subsequent production. At the same time, natural humidification also causes the moisture of part of the tobacco leaves to be higher than 14%, which exceeds the upper limit of the safe storage moisture of the tobacco leaves, and causes the tobacco leaves to be mildewed during long-term storage. The standard stipulates that the storage time of the formula leaf group after manual leaf selection should not exceed 21 days. Therefore, the production plan can only be executed monthly, and the cigarette production has a situation of slack season and peak season, which causes the idle production capacity during the slack season and the insufficient production capacity during the peak season. In addition, the tobacco leaves after natural humidification are still in a non-loose state, and the manual leaf selection process needs to first manually loosen the tobacco leaves, and then perform operations such as leaf selection, stem removal, and impurity removal, so the efficiency of the manual leaf selection is only 8-10 kg / h, and the production efficiency is extremely low. With the increase of the sales of high-price cigarettes, the efficiency of the manual leaf selection has been unable to meet the demand of the production capacity of the products. Under the premise that the leaf selection personnel cannot be further increased, the operation personnel have a large labor intensity, and long-term single repetitive motion easily causes the reduction of the leaf selection quality. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt new technologies and methods to solve these problems. SUMMARY

[0027] D) the tobacco leaves are stored, screened, low-intensity dried, and pre-pressed and packaged to obtain selected cut tobacco.
[0028] participate Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flowchart of the cut tobacco selection process provided by the application is shown.
[0029] Firstly, the tobacco leaves are cut, specifically, the formula tobacco leaves are cut according to the formula single number after being unpacked, three knives and four pieces are adopted, and the whole bale of tobacco leaves is evenly cut, and the weight of each piece of cut tobacco leaves is 50±4 kg.
[0030] Then, the cut tobacco leaves are loosened and moisturized through a loosening cylinder, specifically, the temperature of the loosening and moisturizing is 40±5℃, the cylinder body rotating speed of the loosening cylinder is 7±0.2 r / min, the water temperature is increased to 40±2℃, and air pressure air spraying is adopted; the moisture content of the loosened tobacco leaves is 13.0-13.8%.
[0031] During the loosening and moisturizing process, the effective tobacco loosening rate is 85±5%.
[0032] The tobacco leaves that are not completely loosened and are in the form of clumps are put into a rolling loosening device to obtain loosened tobacco leaves. The size of the clumps that are not completely loosened is about (4-6) cm×(12-15) cm, and the thickness of the small pieces is 1-3 cm. The clumps of tobacco leaves are screened and removed by adopting a star roller, and the removed tobacco clumps are put into a rolling loosening device to completely loosen the tobacco leaves. The loosening and moisturizing and the removal and loosening of the clumps of tobacco leaves are repeated.
[0033] The final tobacco loosening rate is ≥96%.
[0034] The loosened tobacco leaves are put through a 5-stage ladder high-frequency vibration tank, the vibration frequency of which is 60±5 kHz, the vibration tank is connected by 5 stages of high-frequency vibration tanks that are gradually widened, the front of the vibration tank is narrow and the back is wide, the vibration tank is trumpet-shaped, is gradually widened, and there is a height difference of 10±1 cm between each stage of the vibration tank, the tobacco leaves are moved forward and spread through vibration, are gradually spread and thinned through each stage of the vibration tank, and the thickness of the tobacco leaves is thinned to 1-2 cm at the last stage.
[0035] The spread tobacco leaves are put into a low-intensity X-ray detection device to remove tobacco stems and stem-containing tobacco leaves, and obtain tobacco leaves after stems are removed.
[0036] Specifically, the tobacco leaves diluted by 5 levels of distribution enter a low-intensity X-ray detection device. The low-intensity X-ray emitting source of the device is generated by an X-ray tube instead of radioactive elements, and the intensity and direction of the X-ray can be controlled. In the present application, the wavelength of the ray is between 2-4 nanometers, the radiation intensity is 0.5 millisiemens (the safety value for human body is ≤1 millisiemens), and the ray can penetrate tobacco leaves with a stacking thickness of about 5 cm. When the X-ray beam enters the tobacco leaves, the density of the tobacco leaves is relatively small, and the absorption and scattering are relatively weak, while the density of the tobacco stems is relatively large, and the absorption and scattering are relatively strong. These X-rays of different intensities transmitted by the measured object are received by a digitized detector and converted into digital signals, and then combined into a three-dimensional image. The tobacco stems are identified by an algorithm, and the effective identification rate of the tobacco stems reaches more than 99%. Based on the intensity X-ray identification of the tobacco leaves, the tobacco stems and the tobacco leaves containing stems are removed by a positive pressure air jet system, and the leakage and misremoval rate is less than 3%. The tobacco leaves without stems directly enter a storage cabinet, and the tobacco leaves containing stems enter a manual stem picking link to separate the leaves and stems and remove the stems.
[0037] The tobacco leaves after low-intensity loosening and manual stem picking enter the storage cabinet. The tobacco leaves are uniformly laid by reciprocating distribution, so that the formula is further mixed, the mixing uniformity of the formula leaf group is improved, the storage environment temperature of the tobacco leaves is 22-26℃, the relative humidity of the environment is 55%-65%, the storage time is 2-4 hours, the moisture of the tobacco leaves is more uniform through storage and balance, the moisture fluctuation within the batch is less than ±0.5%, and the within-batch moisture standard deviation is less than 0.15%, which is more beneficial to subsequent processing.
[0038] After storage, the tobacco leaves first enter a round-hole screen with a screen hole diameter of 2 mm to screen out small tobacco fragments. The screened tobacco leaves enter a low-intensity drying device. The device is a roller drying device, the heating medium of the roller is water, the temperature of the water is controlled to improve the temperature of the cylinder wall of the drying cylinder, hot air is used as the main drying medium, the water in the tobacco leaves is removed mainly through contact heat transfer, the dehydration capacity is 0.8-1.0%, the moisture of the material before drying is generally about 12.5-13.5%, the temperature of the cylinder wall is controlled at 60-80℃, the temperature of the hot air is 100±10℃, the temperature of the tobacco leaves after drying is 45±5℃, the moisture of the tobacco leaves is 12.0-13.0%, and the moisture deviation is ≤0.2%. The tobacco leaves after drying are flat and have no curling, and have a certain temperature, which reduces the crushing in the subsequent processing.
[0039] After drying, the tobacco leaves are subjected to metering, pre-pressing, re-weighing, packing, bundling and marking through a quantitative feeding system. The leaves are loose, the moisture content of the leaves is 11-13%, the temperature of the leaves is 30±5℃, the density deviation DVR in the case is ≤10%, the weight of a single package is 150 kg, and the mass (weight) tolerance is ±0.5 kg. When the leaves are pre-pressed by the pre-pressing machine, the height of the leaves is properly adjusted to avoid crushing, oil printing and affecting the appearance. The leaves in the case should be full and flat at the four corners, and free of empty corners and impurities. The return of the forming case is not more than 25-50 mm, and the case is complete, free of damage and pollution.

The star roller is used to screen and remove the clumped tobacco leaves. The removed tobacco blocks are put into a roller loosening device to completely loosen the tobacco leaves. Through the loosening and moisture recovery and the re-loosening of the clumped tobacco leaves, the comprehensive tobacco leaf loosening rate is ≥96%.

[0047] After loosening, the tobacco leaves pass through a five-stage ladder high-frequency vibration tank with a vibration frequency of 60±5 kHz. The vibration tank is connected by five stages of high-frequency vibration tanks with gradually widened stages. The vibration tank is narrow at the front and wide at the back, and is gradually widened. There is a height difference of 10 cm between each stage of the vibration tank. The vibration of the vibration tank makes the tobacco leaves move forward and spread. The tobacco leaves are gradually widened and spread through each vibration tank, and the thickness of the tobacco leaves is spread to 1-2 cm at the last stage, and then the tobacco leaves enter a low-intensity X-ray detection device.
[0048] IV. Low-intensity X-ray stem identification and removal

The tobacco stem is identified by algorithm, the effective identification rate of tobacco stem is more than 99%. Based on the intensity X-ray, the tobacco stem and stem-containing tobacco are removed by the positive pressure air jet system, the leakage and misremoval rate is less than 3%, the stem-free tobacco directly enters the tobacco storage cabinet, the stem-containing tobacco enters the artificial stem picking link to separate the stem and leaf and remove the tobacco stem.
[0050] V. Tobacco storage

[0052] VI. Screening and low intensity drying
[0053] After storage, the tobacco first enters the round hole screen with a screen hole diameter of 2mm to screen out small tobacco fragments, then enters the low intensity drying equipment, the equipment is a roller dryer, the heating medium of the roller is water, the cylinder wall temperature is increased by water temperature control, hot air is the main drying medium, the moisture of tobacco is removed through contact heat transfer, the dehydration capacity is 0.8-1.0%, the moisture of material before drying is 12.5-13.5%, the cylinder wall temperature is controlled at 70±5℃, the hot air temperature is 100±10℃, the temperature of tobacco after drying is 45±5℃, the moisture of tobacco is 12.0-13.0%, the moisture deviation is ≤0.2%.

When the tobacco leaves are pre-pressed by the pre-pressing machine, in order to avoid crushing, oil printing, and affecting the appearance, the tobacco leaf rebound height should be adjusted appropriately. The tobacco leaves in the box should be full and flat at the four corners, without empty corners or impurities, etc. The rebound of the baling forming box is not more than 25-50 mm, the box body is complete, without damage or pollution.
