Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tobacco production, in particular to a tobacco leaf loading and unloading device in a tobacco flue-curing room. Background Art

[0002] In the field of tobacco production, intensive baking in the flue-curing room is the current advanced baking method. This method is to fix the fresh tobacco leaves in the flue-curing room with tobacco rods or tobacco clips, and then hang them in layers for intensive baking. Our company has developed and applied for a variety of tobacco clip collection and hanging equipment for flue-curing rooms, especially a tobacco clip conveying system for flue-curing rooms with application number 202222779868.9, which has a high market share, but because the conveyor is longer and requires a larger space, it is not applicable to old flue-curing rooms with smaller spaces. Therefore, for old flue-curing rooms, due to the small space, they still choose to hang tobacco leaves manually, which has low work efficiency.

[0003] Our company has an application number of 202222071994.9 for a lift truck used for loading and unloading tobacco leaves in a tobacco flue-curing room. The whole set of equipment is small and does not require a large rotating space. It is more suitable for old tobacco flue-curing rooms. However, the work platform needs to be lifted and lowered frequently to load and unload tobacco leaves. Not only is the work efficiency low, but the safety risk of the workers standing on the work platform will also increase.

[0004] In addition, the existing lifting equipment for loading and unloading tobacco leaves in the tobacco flue-curing room generally requires the staff to manually control the travel switch to drive the lifting equipment to rise and fall again after each loading and unloading of tobacco leaves. The degree of intelligence is low and the working efficiency of loading and unloading tobacco leaves is reduced. Utility Model Content
