Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of sampling devices, and in particular to a tobacco leaf sampler in a cigarette box. Background Art

[0002] During the storage process, tobacco leaves need to be sampled and inspected regularly. The current sampling method of tobacco leaves is still limited to traditional manual sampling. The specific steps are: first, manually open the sample box, manually turn over the surface tobacco leaves, take samples from the middle of the box, and then restore the opened tobacco leaves for packaging and storage. Sampling is laborious and time-consuming, and the turned tobacco leaves are relatively loose, making it difficult to restore them to their original appearance before opening the box, and it is difficult to repack them. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to solve or partially solve the problems existing in the related art, the present application provides a tobacco leaf sampler in a cigarette box, aiming to improve the convenience of tobacco leaf sampling in a cigarette box.

[0004] To this end, the present application provides a tobacco leaf sampler in a tobacco box, comprising an outer support tube, an inner guide column, and a sampling blade;

[0005] An inner guide column is coaxially arranged in the outer support cylinder, a sampling blade is hinged on the inner guide column, and the sampling blades are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction of the inner guide column, and a sampling hole is constructed on the circumferential surface of the outer support cylinder;

[0006] Wherein, the sampling blade extends outward from the sampling hole, or is retracted from the sampling hole into the outer support tube.

[0007] In some embodiments, a projection of a hinge point between the sampling blade and the inner guide column along the axial direction of the inner guide column and a projection of the sampling hole along the axial direction of the inner guide column are not located in the same sector plane.

[0008] In some embodiments, one end of the outer support tube is tapered, and the sampling hole is disposed near the end;

[0009] The other end of the outer support tube is provided with a rotating handle.

[0025] Regarding the technical problems that the process of turning over the tobacco leaves in the tobacco box for sampling is time-consuming, laborious, and inconvenient to operate.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1 , this application provides a tobacco leaf sampler in a tobacco box, including an outer support cylinder 1, an inner guide post 2, and a sampling blade 3; the lower ends of the outer support cylinder 1 and the inner guide post 2 are fixedly connected and integrally formed.

[0027] An inner guiding column 2 is coaxially arranged inside the outer support cylinder 1. The inner diameter of the outer support cylinder 1 is larger than the outer diameter of the inner guiding column 2, so a sampling cavity is formed between the outer support cylinder 1 and the inner guiding column 2. A sampling blade 3 is hinged on the inner guiding column 2. Specifically, the root of the sampling blade 3 is hinged to the inner guiding column 2, and a blade edge is arranged at the end of the sampling blade 3. The sampling blades 3 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the inner guiding column 2. In this embodiment, three sampling blades 3 are arranged and evenly spaced, which is beneficial to the uniform stress of the outer support cylinder 1 and the sampling blades 3 during sampling and makes sampling more convenient. A sampling hole 11 is formed on the circumferential surface of the outer support cylinder 1.

[0028] During sampling, insert the end of the outer support cylinder 1 with the sampling blade 3 into the position where sampling is required. During insertion, the sampling blade 3 retracts into the outer support cylinder 1 and the sampling blade 3 will not contact the tobacco leaves, and the insertion process is smooth. Then rotate the outer support cylinder 1. Under the action of inertia, the sampling blade 3 extends out from the sampling hole 11. Subsequently, continuously rotate the outer support cylinder 1, and the sampling blade 3 cuts the tobacco leaves around the outer support cylinder 1 and slides into the outer support cylinder 1 along the sampling blade 3. Finally, rotate the outer support cylinder 1 in the reverse direction, the sampling blade 3 retracts from the sampling hole 11 into the outer support cylinder 1, and then pull out the outer support cylinder 1 to complete the sampling of the tobacco leaves. The sampling process is simple and convenient, without taking out the tobacco leaves from the tobacco box, effectively reducing the labor intensity of the staff.

[0029] In some specific embodiments, such as Figure 2 shown, the projection of the hinge point of the sampling blade 3 and the inner guiding column 2 along the axial direction of the inner guiding column 2 is not in the same sector plane as the projection of the sampling hole 11 along the axial direction of the inner guiding column 2. The sector area A is the projection along the axial direction of the inner guiding column 2 of the area where the hinge point of the sampling blade 3 and the inner guiding column 2 can be selected, and the sector area B is the area covered by the projection of the sampling hole 11 along the axial direction of the inner guiding column 2. By staggering the two, when the sampling blade 3 extends out from the sampling hole 11 and rests on one side of the sampling hole 11, the sampling blade 3 is inclined. When rotating the sampling blade 3 for sampling, it is convenient for the sampled tobacco leaves to slide into the outer support cylinder 1 along the sampling blade 3.

[0030] In some specific embodiments, such as Figure 1 shown, one end of the outer support cylinder 1 is conical to facilitate the insertion of the outer support cylinder 1 into the tobacco leaves.

[0031] The sampling hole 11 is arranged near this end; a rotating handle 4 is arranged at the other end of the outer support cylinder 1 to facilitate the staff to rotate the outer support cylinder 1.

[0032] In some specific embodiments, such as Figure 3As shown, the sampler further includes a sample outlet cylinder 5 slidably sleeved on the inner guide post 2. The lower end of the sample outlet cylinder 5 is configured with a sampling portion 51 extending in its radial direction, and the end of the sampling portion 51 is in contact with the inner side surface of the outer support cylinder 1. A relief groove 52 corresponding to the position of the sampling blade 3 is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the sample outlet cylinder 5.

[0033] During sampling, the sampling portion 51 is closer to the end of the outer support cylinder 1 than the sampling blade 3, so that the tobacco flakes entering the outer support cylinder 1 can be placed on the sampling portion 51. After sampling is completed, the sample outlet cylinder 5 can be simply pulled out upward to take out the tobacco leaf sample in the outer support cylinder 1 from the outer support cylinder 1, making it more convenient to take out the sample. Moreover, when the sample outlet cylinder 5 is rotated, the sampling blade 3 can be driven to rotate through the relief groove 52, thereby facilitating the staff to adjust the position of the sampling blade 3 more conveniently and making it more convenient to use.

[0034] In some specific embodiments, scales are provided on the circumferential surface of the outer support cylinder 1, which are not shown in the figure. When the outer support cylinder 1 is inserted, the insertion depth of the outer support cylinder 1 can be viewed through the scales to determine the sampling position, which is beneficial to the accuracy of the sampling position.

[0035] The various embodiments of the present application have been described above. The above description is exemplary and not exhaustive, and is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations are obvious to those of ordinary skill in the art in the technical field without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The selection of the terms used herein is intended to best explain the principles of the embodiments, practical applications, or improvements to the technologies in the market, or to enable other ordinary skill in the art in the technical field to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
