[0002] In the process of cigarette processing, the loose moisture regain process is an important process in the processing of cut tobacco to silk. Its main technological task is to increase the moisture content and temperature of tobacco leaves. At present, in tobacco production, the loose moisture regain process is mainly processed by a drum device. This type of drum device continuously and evenly heats and humidifies the tobacco leaves, further improving the toughness and processability of the tobacco leaves, and playing an important role in the stability of the process quality control of subsequent processes and the quality of tobacco leaves.

[0003] In the actual production process, the drum device mainly uniformly performs temperature and humidity increase treatment on the material through nozzles installed at the feeding end or the discharging end of the drum device. The installation angle of the nozzles in the prior art is fixed on the drum device, and it is difficult to flexibly adjust the spraying angle of the nozzles according to the moisture content of the outlet material. Therefore, due to inappropriate nozzle angles and positions, the atomized water sprayed cannot be evenly aligned with the material, so that the water vapor cannot be evenly sprayed on the material, resulting in a higher moisture content of some materials, that is, the situation of water-stained tobacco.

[0028] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the embodiments of the utility model will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings.

[0029] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the embodiment of the utility model provides a nozzle angle adjustment device for adjusting the angle of the nozzle on one side of the drum 1 in the conditioning machine. The nozzle angle adjustment device includes: a first component 2, a second component 3, and a connecting member 4.

[0030] Specifically, the first component 2 includes a first fixing plate 21 and a first fixing cylinder 22. The first fixing cylinder 22 is arranged at the first end of the first fixing plate 21, and the second end of the first fixing plate 21 is connected to the end face of the drum 1.

[0031] The second component 3 includes a second fixing plate 31 and a second fixing cylinder 32. The second fixing cylinder 32 is arranged at the first end of the second fixing plate 31, and the second end of the second fixing plate 31 is provided with a mounting hole 51 for mounting the nozzle 5.

[0032] Wherein, the end face of the first end of the first fixing plate 21 is in contact with the end face of the first end of the second fixing plate 31, and the end face of one end of the first fixing cylinder 22 is in contact with the end face of one end of the second fixing cylinder 32.

[0033] The connecting member 4 passes through the first fixed cylinder 22 and the second fixed cylinder 32 to connect the first fixing plate 21 and the second fixing plate 31, and the second fixing plate 31 can rotate around the axis of the connecting member 4. The connecting member 4 is used to rotatably connect the first component 2 and the second component 3.

[0034] The applicant has fully considered the problems that occur when the nozzle 5 sprays water on the material during the loose redrying process. By setting the first component 2 and the second component 3 as a relatively rotatable structure and using the connecting member 4 to connect the first component 2 and the second component 3, the second component 3 can rotate relative to the first component 2 around the axis of the connecting member 4, so that the nozzle 5 installed on the second component 3 can also change its angle accordingly. Thus, the angle of the nozzle 5 can be flexibly adjusted according to the production mode, improving the uniformity of material humidification and further reducing the occurrence of water-stained tobacco.

[0035] Further, the connecting member 4 includes a bolt 41 and a fixing nut 42. The bolt 41 can pass through the first fixed cylinder 22 and the second fixed cylinder 32, and the fixing nut 42 is threadedly connected to one end of the bolt 41 to fix the relative positions of the first fixing plate 21 and the second fixing plate 31.

[0036] Further, the nozzle angle adjustment device further includes a detent bolt 6. At least one threaded hole is provided on the circumferential surface of the first fixed cylinder 22 and / or the second fixed cylinder 32, and the detent bolt 6 passes through the threaded hole and abuts against the circumferential surface of the bolt 41.

[0037] Specifically, when it is found that the angle of the nozzle 5 is not suitable for the production mode, resulting in uneven spraying of water on the material surface, first, the detent bolt 6 needs to be loosened to release the fixing relationship between the first fixed cylinder 22 and / or the second fixed cylinder 32 and the connecting member 4. Subsequently, the operator loosens the fixing nut 42 to release the fixing relationship between the first fixing plate 21 and the second fixing plate 31, so that the operator can rotate the second fixing plate to adjust the angle of the nozzle 5. After the operator rotates the nozzle 5 to an appropriate angle (i.e., the moisture content of the outlet material is about 18%), the relative positions of the first fixing plate 21 and the second fixing plate 22 are fixed by tightening the fixing nut 42. Immediately afterwards, the operator tightens the detent bolt 6 to achieve the fixing relationship between the first fixed cylinder 22 and / or the second fixed cylinder 32 and the connecting member 4, thereby fixing the nozzle 5 after adjusting its angle. When the moisture content of the outlet tobacco leaves does not reach about 18%, the operator repeats the above operations until the moisture content of the outlet tobacco leaves reaches the standard.

[0038] Further, the connecting member 4 further includes a detent spring washer (not shown in the figure), which is arranged between the fixing nut 42 and the first fixed cylinder 22 or the second fixed cylinder 32, and the detent spring washer is used to prevent the fixing nut 42 from loosening.

[0039] The nozzle angle adjustment device of the present utility model is provided with an anti-rotation spring washer between the end faces of the fixing nut 42 and the first fixing cylinder 22 or the second fixing cylinder 32, which can effectively prevent the fixing nut 42 from loosening due to the vibration of the drum equipment, thereby improving the reliability of the relative fixation of the first component 2 and the second component 3.

[0040] Furthermore, the nozzle angle adjustment device further includes an L-shaped connecting plate 7. The L-shaped connecting plate includes a first connecting plate and a second connecting plate that are perpendicular to each other. The first connecting plate is fixedly connected to the end face of the drum 1, and the second connecting plate is fixedly connected to the second end of the first fixing plate 21. The setting of the L-shaped connecting plate 7 can effectively improve the convenience of installing the nozzle angle adjustment device.

[0041] Specifically, the nozzle angle adjustment device further includes an angle scale mark, which is arranged along the circumferential surface of the first fixing cylinder 22 and is used to indicate the angle of rotation of the second fixing plate 31.

[0042] The nozzle angle adjustment device of the present utility model can rotate the nozzle 5 according to the angle scale mark through the setting of the angle scale mark on the first fixing cylinder 22 to achieve angle adjustment, so that the nozzle 5 can be adjusted to a proper angle more accurately.

[0043] Exemplarily, the first component 2, the second component 3, the connecting piece 4, and the L-shaped connecting plate 7 are all made of stainless steel material, which can not only effectively ensure the structural strength of the nozzle angle adjustment device, but also improve the service life of the device.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first component 2 and the second component 3 can be arranged to extend in the vertical direction. The second component 3 is arranged below the first component 2, and the second component 3 can rotate left and right in the horizontal direction around the axis of the connecting piece 4. Preferably, the first component 2 and the second component 3 are arranged to extend in the vertical direction, and the nozzle 5 can follow the second component to rotate left and right in the horizontal direction.

[0045] In some embodiments, the first component 2 and the second component 3 can be arranged to extend in the horizontal direction. The second component 3 can rotate up and down in the vertical direction around the axis of the connecting piece 4. Preferably, the first component 2 and the second component 3 are arranged to extend in the horizontal direction, and the nozzle 5 can follow the second component 3 to rotate up and down in the vertical direction.

[0046] Based on the same concept, the embodiment of the present utility model also discloses a tobacco processing device, which includes a feeding end 8, a discharging end 9, a drum 1, and the nozzle angle adjustment device A provided in any of the above embodiments. The feeding end 8 and the discharging end 9 are respectively arranged at both ends of the drum 1, and the nozzle angle adjustment device A is arranged close to the discharging end 9 of the drum 1.

[0047] It should be noted that in the examples and descriptions of the present utility model, relational terms such as first and second are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the term "comprises", "comprising" or any other variation thereof is intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article or device comprising a series of elements not only includes those elements but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or further includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. Without further limitation, a statement that includes a defined element does not exclude the presence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article or device that includes the element.

[0048] Although the present utility model has been illustrated and described by referring to some preferred embodiments thereof, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the above content is a further detailed description of the present utility model in conjunction with specific embodiments, and it cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present utility model is only limited to these descriptions.
