Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tobacco leaf humidity control, in particular to a device for controlling the humidity of finished cigar tobacco leaves. Background Technique

[0002] At present, after the fermentation and grading of cigar tobacco leaves, the moisture content of the tobacco leaves is generally too high, which does not meet the requirements of the packing moisture content and cannot be packed immediately. The traditional humidity control method is to remove the moisture on the cigar tobacco leaves by natural ventilation and airing. This method has low efficiency and cannot accurately control the moisture condition of the cigar tobacco leaves. Often, the moisture content of some cigar tobacco leaves has met the packing requirements, while the moisture content of some cigar tobacco leaves still does not meet the packing requirements. Therefore, the moisture content of the cigar tobacco leaves is uneven, and subsequent mildew of the cigar tobacco leaves is likely to occur, affecting the quality of the tobacco leaves.

[0003] At present, there are almost no effective measures for controlling the humidity of finished cigar tobacco leaves after fermentation and grading in China. The moisture on the cigar tobacco leaves is removed by natural ventilation and airing. This method for controlling the humidity of the finished tobacco leaves is time-consuming and laborious, the moisture content of the tobacco leaves is not easy to control, and the uniformity of the moisture content after humidity control is poor.

[0004] Although the traditional humidity control method can remove the moisture on the cigar tobacco leaves, the humidity control speed is greatly affected by the weather and temperature. The tobacco leaves are prone to mildew on rainy days, thus affecting the quality of the tobacco leaves. From the perspective of packing efficiency, the efficiency is low, and pipeline production cannot be achieved. For this reason, we propose a device for controlling the humidity of finished cigar tobacco leaves. Content of the Utility Model

The water tank 15 is a stainless steel water tank. Cross bars 12 are fixedly connected to the bottoms of both of the two connecting rods 11. A hanging ring 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cross bar 12. A hook 14 is detachably provided inside the hanging ring 13. The hook 14 is used to connect the tobacco leaves and the hanging ring 13.

[0027] Specifically: Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 , the drying component 4 includes a fan 401. The fan 401 is an axial flow fan with greater wind force and better drying effect. The fan 401 is fixedly installed outside the drying chamber 1. The output end of the fan 401 is fixedly connected to an air duct 402. The other end of the air duct 402 is fixedly connected to a heating box 403. The heating box 403 heats the air to keep the air at a certain temperature, so that the moisture content of the tobacco leaves can be controlled and dried to a more precise and accurate value, achieving higher-quality tobacco leaves and thus maintaining the quality of the tobacco leaves. The output end of the heating box 403 is fixedly connected to an output pipe 404. Hollow plates 405 are symmetrically and fixedly provided inside the drying chamber 1. The inside of the hollow plates 405 is a hollow structure. The other end of the output pipe 404 penetrates through the humidifying chamber 2 and is fixedly connected to one of the hollow plates 405.

A plurality of air nozzles 406 are distributed on one side of the two hollow plates 405 close to each other. The uniform distribution of the plurality of air nozzles 406 can make the drying of the tobacco leaves more uniform. Cooperating with the self-rotation of the tobacco leaves, drying the tobacco leaves from both sides can make the control of the moisture content of the tobacco leaves more uniform.

[0028] Furthermore, referring to Figure 2, the humidifying component 6 includes a water pump 601. The water pump 601 provides the power source for the humidifying component 6. The input end of the water pump 601 is fixedly connected with a water delivery pipe 602. The other end of the water delivery pipe 602 is fixedly connected with the water tank 15. The output end of the water pump 601 is fixedly connected with a water outlet pipe 603.

A plurality of atomizing nozzles 606 are uniformly fixedly connected to the outside of the fixed pipe 605. The atomizing nozzles 606 can make the water mist spray more evenly, and at the same time can moisturize the entire tobacco leaves in all directions.

[0029] In addition, it should be noted that please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the moving component 7 includes a housing 701. The housing 701 is fixedly installed inside the humidifying chamber 2. A motor 702 is fixedly installed inside the housing 701. The specific model of the motor 702 is selected according to the actual situation. The output end of the motor 702 is fixedly connected with a lead screw 703. A slider 704 is threadedly connected to the outside of the lead screw 703. The end of the lead screw 703 far from the motor 702 is rotatably connected to the top of the inner wall of the housing 701. The slider 704 is slidably connected with the housing 701. The housing 701 plays a limiting role on the slider 704 to ensure its horizontal movement. A through hole 705 is opened on the outside of the housing 701. A connecting rod 706 is fixedly connected to the outside of the slider 704. The connecting rod 706 penetrates through the through hole 705 and is fixedly connected with the fixed pipe 605. By driving the lead screw 703 to rotate by the motor 702, the slider 704 is driven to rotate, and then the fixed pipe 605 is driven to move up and down through the connecting rod 706, so that the atomizing nozzles 606 spray more evenly, so that the tobacco leaves are moisturized in all directions, reaching an appropriate humidity value, and ensuring the quality of the tobacco leaves.

[0030] Furthermore, please refer to Figure 3 , the unfolding component 8 includes a fixed block 801. The fixed block 801 is fixedly installed on the outside of the connecting rod 11. Electric telescopic rods 802 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed block 801. The electric telescopic rods 802 provide the power source for the unfolding component 8. The output ends of both electric telescopic rods 802 are fixedly connected with plate pieces 803. Ventilation holes 804 are opened inside both plate pieces 803. There are multiple ventilation holes 804. The outside of the plate piece 803 is made of stainless steel, and the inside can adopt a mesh sheet, so that the drying and moisturizing effects of the tobacco leaves are not affected when the tobacco leaves are unfolded, which is beneficial to flatten the tobacco leaves and can dry and control the humidity of the tobacco leaves in all directions.

[0031] In summary, when using this device, first hang the tobacco leaves that need humidity control on the hanging ring 13 through the hook 14. Then start the drive chain 3. The drive chain 3 drives the gear 10 to move through the fixed rod 9, and then drives the tobacco leaves to move. The tobacco leaves enter the interior of the drying chamber 1 through the feed inlet. The gear 10 meshes with the rack 5, driving the connecting rod 11, the cross bar 12, the hanging ring 13 and the hook 14 to rotate, and then driving the tobacco leaves to rotate. At the same time, start the fan 401. The fan 401 conveys the air through the air duct 402 to the interior of the heating box 403 for heating, and then conveys it to the interior of the hollow plate 405 through the output pipe 404 and the connecting pipe 407. Then, the tobacco leaves are dried and humidity-controlled through the air nozzles 406. At the same time, start the electric telescopic rod 802. The electric telescopic rod 802 pushes the plate 803 downward to unfold the curled tobacco leaves, so that they can be fully dried and humidity-controlled, thereby improving the efficiency of drying and humidity control of the tobacco leaves. When the humidity control is completed, the tobacco leaves are removed through the discharge port. The staff removes the humidity-controlled tobacco leaves and packs them. Leave the tobacco leaves that need humidity preservation and continue to enter the interior of the humidifying chamber 2 along with the drive chain 3. At the same time, start the water pump 601. The water pump 601 conveys the water in the water tank 15 through the water delivery pipe 602 to the interior of the water outlet pipe 603 and the hose 604, and then enters the fixed pipe 605 and is discharged through the atomizing nozzle 606. At the same time, start the motor 702. The motor 702 drives the lead screw 703 to rotate, and then drives the slider 704 to rotate, so as to drive the fixed pipe 605 to move up and down through the connecting rod 706, so that the atomizing nozzle 606 sprays more evenly. When a certain humidity is reached, the cigar tobacco leaves are taken down manually and packed.
