Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of flue-cured tobacco leaf processing, in particular to a tobacco leaf grading flexible bundling mechanism and method. Background Art

[0002] Flue-cured tobacco is an annual or limited perennial herbaceous plant of the genus Nicotiana in the Solanaceae family. Harvested tobacco leaves are cleaned, dried, and then graded. During the grading process, leaves of consistent location, color, and length are grouped together. After grading, these leaves are bundled, compressed to create a tighter bundle and reduce the space they occupy. The leaves are then transported and stored together.

[0003] In current production practices, tobacco leaves are manually pre-set on ropes in a hydraulic device, compressed on the ropes, and then bundled manually. However, this is labor-intensive, labor-intensive, and inefficient. With the increasing labor shortage in the tobacco industry, industry insiders are actively developing equipment to automate tobacco bundling. For example, Chinese invention patent application publication number CN114766699A discloses a "tobacco bundling and forming device," which automatically compresses and bundles tobacco leaves.

[0004] However, the main disadvantages of the existing device are that the bundling spacing cannot be adjusted. Regardless of whether the long tobacco leaves or the short tobacco leaves are graded, the bundling spacing is the same, which causes the bundling position of the long tobacco leaves to be too biased towards the middle. The long tobacco leaves lack bundling at both ends, which makes them loose and difficult to stack during transportation; the bundling position of the short tobacco leaves is too biased towards the edge, and the bundling rope may be detached during transportation and lifting, resulting in poor bundling effect. The same device cannot achieve graded bundling according to the grading situation; multiple devices with different bundling spacings must be purchased to meet actual production needs, which increases the cost of fixed asset investment.

[0005] Based on this, a tobacco grading flexible bundling mechanism and method are now provided, which can eliminate the disadvantages of existing devices. Summary of the Invention
