[0002] The density of materials added during the tobacco processing to enhance flavor and improve quality (such as flavorings and fragrances) is mainly monitored through manual sampling.

[0003] Manual sampling is time-consuming, and samples need to be cooled to standard temperature and humidity (e.g., 22°C). 2 degrees Celsius, humidity 60% Measurements can only be performed if the sample content is less than 5%, and manual sampling is prone to errors (such as reading errors, transfer errors, and air bubbles). When the materials added during the tobacco processing are of high value, manual sampling can also lead to material waste. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0014] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0015] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0016] Figure 1 is a flowchart of a material density monitoring method provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the automated monitoring of material density. The method can be executed by a material density monitoring device, which can be implemented in hardware and / or software and can be configured in an electronic device. As shown in Figure 1, the method includes: step 110, acquiring the material temperature in the spinning pipe and the material density to be corrected.

[0017] The material temperature in the tobacco processing pipe refers to the temperature of the material inside the pipe during the tobacco processing step. The material inside the pipe that improves the flavor and quality of the tobacco can be simply referred to as the target material. The target material can be flavorings and / or fragrances, etc. The density to be corrected can be the density of the target material read in real time.

[0018] In this embodiment of the invention, the material temperature in the tobacco processing pipeline and the density of the material to be corrected can be obtained.

[0019] Optionally, the density of the material to be corrected can be collected in real time by measuring equipment, or the density of the material to be corrected can be calculated by converting it with flow rate, mass, etc., which are related to the density of the material to be corrected.

[0020] Step 120: Calculate the material density compensation value based on the material density to be corrected, the material temperature in the filament forming pipeline, and the relevant temperature compensation parameters.

[0021] Among them, the temperature compensation parameters can be parameters used to correct the density of the material to be corrected based on the material temperature in the yarn-making pipeline. The material density compensation value can be the corrected value of the material density to be corrected.

[0022] In this embodiment of the invention, based on the thermal expansion characteristics of the target material, temperature compensation-related parameters are determined. Then, based on the temperature compensation-related parameters and the material temperature in the yarn-making pipeline, the density of the material to be corrected is corrected to obtain the material density compensation value, so as to eliminate the influence of temperature change on density measurement.

[0023] Step 130: When an abnormal material density is determined based on the material density compensation value and the density monitoring threshold, an early warning message is generated.

[0024] The density monitoring threshold can be a pre-set density threshold compared to the material density compensation value. Early warning information can be used to indicate the presence of an abnormal density event in the target material. Early warning information may include, but is not limited to, early warning events (such as early warning time, the target material's density compensation value, operator information, etc.), and early warning commands triggered by an abnormal density in the target material.

[0025] In this embodiment of the invention, the material density compensation value is compared with the density monitoring threshold. If the material density compensation value does not meet the constraint of the density monitoring threshold, it indicates that the material density of the target material is abnormal, and thus an early warning information is generated based on the relevant data of the target material.

[0026] Optionally, after generating the warning information, an alarm can be triggered to remind the operator that the density of the target material is abnormal through sound, light and / or visual prompts.

[0027] The technical solution of this invention acquires the material temperature and density to be corrected in the tobacco processing pipeline. Based on this density, the material temperature, and temperature compensation parameters, a material density compensation value is calculated. Then, based on the compensation value and a density monitoring threshold, an early warning message is generated when an abnormal material density is detected. In this solution, the density to be corrected is not obtained through manual sampling; it is immediately usable. Furthermore, the density is corrected using the material temperature and temperature compensation parameters to ensure the accuracy of the compensation value in subsequent anomaly detection. This achieves automated management of the entire process of target material density acquisition, correction, and anomaly detection without manual intervention. It solves the problems of material waste, human error, and time-consuming issues associated with manual sampling for monitoring the density of materials added during tobacco processing. This solution enables real-time and accurate monitoring of the density of materials added during tobacco processing, avoiding material waste and significantly reducing labor costs.

[0028] Figure 2 is a flowchart of a material density monitoring method provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. This embodiment is a specific implementation based on the above embodiment, providing a specific optional implementation method for generating a production adjustment plan after generating an early warning information when the material density is determined to be abnormal based on the material density compensation value and the density monitoring threshold. As shown in Figure 2, the method includes: step 210, obtaining the material temperature and the material density to be corrected in the spinning pipeline.

[0029] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, obtaining the material temperature and the material density to be corrected in the yarn forming pipeline may include: obtaining the material temperature and the material density to be corrected in the yarn forming pipeline collected by a first mass flow meter; or, obtaining the material temperature and the material mass flow rate collected by a second mass flow meter; and calculating the material density to be corrected based on the material mass flow rate and the material volume flow rate.

[0030] The first mass flow meter can be a mass flow meter capable of detecting density and temperature. Mass flow meters can include, but are not limited to, Coriolis mass flow meters. The second mass flow meter can be a mass flow meter capable of detecting mass flow rate. The material mass flow rate can be the mass flow rate of the target material. The material volumetric flow rate can be the volumetric flow rate of the target material.

[0031] In this embodiment of the invention, the material temperature and the density to be corrected in the spinning pipe can be collected by a first mass flow meter. Alternatively, while collecting the material temperature in the spinning pipe by a temperature sensor, the material mass flow rate can also be collected by a second mass flow meter, and the quotient of the material mass flow rate and the material volume flow rate can be used as the density to be corrected.

[0032] Step 220: Calculate the material density compensation value based on the material density to be corrected, the material temperature in the filament forming pipeline, and the relevant temperature compensation parameters.

[0033] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, calculating the material density compensation value based on the material density to be corrected, the material temperature in the spinning pipe, and temperature compensation related parameters may include: calculating the difference between the material temperature in the spinning pipe and the reference temperature in the temperature compensation related parameters to obtain the target temperature difference value; and calculating the material density compensation value based on the temperature coefficient in the temperature compensation related parameters, the target temperature difference value, and the material density to be corrected.

[0034] The reference temperature can be the standard temperature value used for manually sampling and measuring the density of the target material. The target temperature difference can be the difference between the material temperature in the yarn-making pipeline and the reference temperature. The temperature coefficient can be the proportionality coefficient between the temperature change and the density change of the target material.

[0035] In this embodiment of the invention, the temperature of the material in the yarn-making pipeline can be calculated, and the difference between it and the reference temperature in the temperature compensation related parameters can be used to obtain the target temperature difference value. Then, the product of the temperature coefficient in the temperature compensation related parameters and the target temperature difference value can be calculated, and the product value can be summed with the material density to be corrected to obtain the material density compensation value.

[0036] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, before calculating the material density compensation value based on the material density to be corrected, the material temperature in the yarn forming pipeline, and temperature compensation related parameters, the method may further include: obtaining the target material density measurement value at different experimental temperatures; and calculating the temperature coefficient in the temperature compensation related parameters based on the target material density measurement value at different experimental temperatures.

[0037] The density measurement value of the target material can be the density measurement value of the target material at different experimental temperatures.

[0038] In this embodiment of the invention, the density of the target material can be measured at multiple different experimental temperatures to obtain the target material density measurement value. Then, the quotient of the target material density measurement value at different experimental temperatures and the target material density measurement value at the reference temperature is divided again with the corresponding temperature difference to obtain the temperature coefficient in the temperature compensation related parameters.

[0039] Step 230: When an abnormal material density is determined based on the material density compensation value and the density monitoring threshold, an early warning message is generated.

[0040] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, when an abnormal material density is determined based on the material density compensation value and the density monitoring threshold, generating an early warning information may include: determining an abnormal material density when the material density compensation value is greater than a first density threshold in the density monitoring threshold, or less than a second density threshold in the density monitoring threshold, generating a density abnormality early warning instruction, and early warning event data.

[0041] The first density threshold can be a pre-set upper limit for the density of the target material. The second density threshold can be a pre-set lower limit for the density of the target material. The density anomaly warning command can be a command that triggers an alarm when the density of the target material is abnormal. The density anomaly warning command is used to trigger alarm signals (such as photoelectric indicator lights) and to store and display alarm event data. The alarm event data can be the data describing the alarm event in the alarm information. Optionally, the density anomaly warning command can also be used to trigger access control of the density monitoring threshold, prohibiting operators from modifying the density monitoring threshold, and only authorized personnel can reset it.

[0042] In this embodiment of the invention, if the material density compensation value is greater than the first density threshold in the density monitoring threshold, or less than the second density threshold in the density monitoring threshold, it indicates that the material density is abnormal. Therefore, when the material density is abnormal, based on the relevant data of the current target material corresponding to the yarn making process, early warning event data and density abnormality early warning instructions are generated.

[0043] Optionally, when the material density compensation value is close to the first density threshold or the second density threshold, i.e., the difference between the material density compensation value and the first density threshold or the second density threshold is less than a preset difference, a yellow warning light can be triggered by a density anomaly warning command. When the material density compensation value is greater than the first density threshold in the density monitoring thresholds, or less than the second density threshold in the density monitoring thresholds, a red warning light can be triggered by a density anomaly warning command.

[0044] Step 240: Based on the material density compensation value under the current time window, draw a material density compensation trend chart.

[0045] The current time window can be the time range within which the material density compensation value trend analysis is currently performed. The material density compensation trend chart can be used to characterize the trend of material density compensation values ​​changing over time.

[0046] In this embodiment of the invention, the material density compensation value under the current time window can be collected, and then a material density compensation trend chart can be drawn with time as the horizontal axis variable and the material density compensation value as the vertical axis variable.

[0047] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, after plotting the material density compensation trend graph based on the material density compensation value under the current time window, the method may further include: when it is determined that there is an instrument acquisition error, calculating the sampling error value of the material density to be corrected; and updating the temperature compensation related parameters based on the sampling error value of the material density to be corrected.

[0048] The sampling error value can be the sampling error of the instrument on the density of the material to be corrected.

[0049] In this embodiment of the invention, the difference between the actual target material value and the material density compensation value at at least one experimental temperature can be determined by temperature compensation-related parameters. If the difference between the actual target material value and the material density compensation value exceeds a preset error threshold, it indicates that there is an instrument acquisition error. Based on the difference between the actual target material value and the material density compensation value calculated above, the sampling error value of the material density to be corrected is determined, and the sampling error value of the material density to be corrected is updated in the temperature compensation-related parameters. After calculating the initial material density compensation value according to the temperature coefficient, target temperature difference value and material density to be corrected in the temperature compensation-related parameters, the initial material density compensation value is then summed with the sampling error value to obtain the final material density compensation value.

[0050] Step 250: Based on the material density compensation trend chart, when an abnormal material density trend is identified, a production adjustment plan is generated based on process control technology and the material density compensation trend chart.

[0051] Among these, an abnormal material density trend can be defined as the material density compensation value continuously increasing or decreasing over time, exceeding a preset slope. A production adjustment plan can be a plan to adjust material allocation.

[0052] In this embodiment of the invention, the presence of anomalies in the material density trend can be determined based on the material density compensation trend chart. When an anomaly in the material density trend is identified, a production adjustment plan to improve the abnormal material density trend in the material density compensation trend chart can be generated through process control technology.

[0053] A material density monitoring system includes a first mass flow meter, a data acquisition and communication module, a density compensation value calculation module, a threshold alarm and access control logic subsystem, a data storage and reporting subsystem, an operation terminal, and a visual interface.

[0054] The first mass flow meter can be an Endress+Hauser flow meter. The data acquisition and communication module can be the data acquisition interface of the programmable controller in the yarn-making process. The threshold alarm and permission logic control subsystem can be used to generate alarm information and restrict the modification permission of density monitoring thresholds. The data storage and reporting subsystem can be used to store early warning event data and generate early warning and yarn-making production reports. The data storage and reporting subsystem can be a factory server or database, etc.

[0055] For example, the execution flow of the material density monitoring system is as follows: The density of the material to be corrected is measured using an Endershaus flow meter. The data acquisition interface of the programmable controller in the yarn-making process collects the material density measured by the Endershaus flow meter. Then, the density compensation value calculation module corrects the material density to obtain the material density compensation value. The threshold alarm and permission logic control subsystem compares the material density compensation value with the density monitoring threshold. If the material density is normal, a material density compensation trend chart is displayed, and data is recorded. If the material density is abnormal, an early warning message is generated, the permission for the density monitoring threshold is locked, and the early warning event is recorded. Further process control analysis is performed based on the material density compensation trend chart or the early warning event to generate reports.

[0056] For example, it can be based on Calculate the material density compensation value; where, This represents the material density compensation value, T represents the material temperature in the yarn-making pipeline, and k represents the temperature coefficient. Indicates the reference temperature. This indicates the density of the material to be corrected.

[0057] The material density monitoring system, based on Endress+Hauser flow meters, monitors the density of target materials online in real time. This means it continuously measures material density in real time during the production process without sampling or stopping the machine. Combined with intelligent judgment of material density anomalies, multi-level alarms, and density anomaly management with access control, it enables real-time data acquisition, storage, trend display, and process control analysis without requiring additional hardware. It also features automatic recording of alarm events and a quality traceability mechanism, achieving fully automated density monitoring and judgment throughout the entire process. The target material detection time is reduced from 30-45 minutes to less than 2 minutes, improving efficiency by over 95%. Human error is eliminated, density repeatability errors are reduced, annual material losses are saved, and labor costs are lowered. It achieves automatic data acquisition, storage, and analysis, supports process control, and reduces traceability time from hours to minutes. No equipment modification is required; it utilizes existing hardware, resulting in low implementation costs.

[0058] The technical solution of this invention obtains the material temperature and the density to be corrected in the yarn-making pipeline, and calculates the material density compensation value based on the material density to be corrected, the material temperature in the yarn-making pipeline, and temperature compensation-related parameters. Then, based on the material density compensation value and the density monitoring threshold, when an abnormal material density is determined, an early warning information is generated. Based on the material density compensation value in the current time window, a material density compensation trend chart is drawn. Furthermore, based on the material density compensation trend chart, when an abnormal material density trend is determined, a production adjustment plan is generated based on process control technology and the material density compensation trend chart. In this solution, the density of the material to be corrected is obtained without relying on manual sampling, and can be used immediately. Furthermore, the density is corrected by using the material temperature in the tobacco processing pipeline and related temperature compensation parameters to ensure the accuracy of the material density compensation value during subsequent anomaly detection. This achieves automated management of the entire process of target material density acquisition, correction, and anomaly detection without manual intervention. Based on the material density compensation value within a certain time range, it performs anomaly detection of material density trends and makes timely adjustments to the target material. This solves the problems of material waste, susceptibility to human error, and long processing time associated with manual sampling for monitoring the density of materials added during tobacco processing. It enables real-time and accurate monitoring of the density of materials added during tobacco processing, avoiding material waste and significantly saving labor costs.

[0060] The technical solution of this invention acquires the material temperature and density to be corrected in the tobacco processing pipeline. Based on this density, the material temperature, and temperature compensation parameters, a material density compensation value is calculated. Then, based on the compensation value and a density monitoring threshold, an early warning message is generated when an abnormal material density is detected. In this solution, the density to be corrected is not obtained through manual sampling; it is immediately usable. Furthermore, the density is corrected using the material temperature and temperature compensation parameters to ensure the accuracy of the compensation value in subsequent anomaly detection. This achieves automated management of the entire process of target material density acquisition, correction, and anomaly detection without manual intervention. It solves the problems of material waste, human error, and time-consuming issues associated with manual sampling for monitoring the density of materials added during tobacco processing.
