[0036] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the flavor spraying device includes a storage tank 1, a bracket 2, an electric slide 3 and an injector 4. Among them, the storage tank 1 has a accommodating cavity for accommodating flavors, the bracket 2 is arranged around the periphery of the storage tank 1, the electric slide 3 is movably arranged on the bracket 2, and the electric slide 3 can slide relative to the bracket 2 along the peripheral direction of the storage tank 1. The injector 4 is arranged on the electric slide 3, and the injector 4 is connected to the storage tank 1. There are multiple injectors 4, and multiple injectors 4 can slide relative to each other under the action of the electric slide 3. Specifically, the storage tank 1 has a accommodating cavity, and the accommodating cavity accommodates flavors for cigarette flavoring. Cigarette flavoring includes tobacco shreds flavoring, filter rod flavoring, cigarette paper flavoring, etc. The outer peripheral surface of the storage tank 1 is installed with a bracket 2, and the bracket 2 is annular. The bracket 2 is used to install and support the electric slide 3, and the electric slide 3 is an arc-shaped structure as a whole. The electric slide 3 is a mechanical structure driven by an electric motor. The electric slide 3 is provided with working current by a power supply. The motor driver is responsible for transmitting the current provided by the power supply to the motor. The controller controls the speed and direction of the motor according to the input control signal. The motor converts the rotary motion into linear motion through a transmission mechanism such as gears, belts or worm gears. The electric slide 3 is a prior art and will not be described in detail. A plurality of injectors 4 are mounted on the electric slide 3 and are all connected to the accommodating chamber. The injectors 4 are used to spray the spices in the accommodating chamber onto the cigarettes for flavoring. First, according to the position of the cigarettes, the electric slide 3 slides on the bracket 2 relative to the storage tank 1. The position of the electric slide 3 relative to the periphery of the storage tank 1 is manually adjusted, that is, the approximate spraying direction of the injector 4 is adjusted. Then, under the action of the electric slide 3, the plurality of injectors 4 slide relative to each other to achieve concentrated spraying or dispersed spraying, ensuring that the spices are evenly covered on the cigarettes. In addition, the coordinated control of the plurality of injectors 4 can accurately control the spraying amount of the spices sprayed by the injectors 4.

[0037] Further, continue to refer to Figure 1-Figure 3The electric slide 3 includes a connecting portion 31 and a guiding portion 32. The connecting portion 31 is slidably mounted on the bracket 2. The guiding portion 32 is connected to the injector 4 and can drive the injector 4 to slide. Specifically, the guiding portion 32 is provided on the bracket 2 through the connecting portion 31. The connecting portion 31 and the bracket 2 are slidably matched. By manually pushing the connecting portion 31, the position of the guiding portion 32 relative to the periphery of the storage tank 1 can be adjusted so that the spraying direction of the multiple injectors 4 on the guiding portion 32 can be directed toward the position of the cigarette. The guiding portion 32 is used to drive the multiple injectors 4 to slide relative to each other to achieve concentrated spraying or dispersed spraying, ensuring that the multiple injectors 4 spray the spices evenly on the cigarettes, the spray coverage of the spices is wide, and the uniformity and looseness of the spices on the cigarettes are improved.

[0038] Further, continue to refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 The fragrance spraying device further includes a connector. A through-hole is defined in the connector portion 31, and a mounting hole is defined in the bracket 2. The connector passes through the through-hole and is connected to the mounting hole. Specifically, the connector is a bolt. The connector portion 31 and the bracket 2 are detachably connected via the connector, making replacement and maintenance easy, thereby reducing maintenance time and costs.

[0039] Further, continue to refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 The flavor spraying device also includes a connecting assembly 5, one end of which is connected to the injector 4 and the other end of which is connected to the storage tank 1. Specifically, the flavoring in the storage tank 1 is supplied to the injector 4 via the connecting assembly 5, and the injector 4 sprays the flavoring onto the cigarette. The connecting assembly 5 includes a delivery pipe 51 and a bellows 52. The bellows 52 is connected to the storage tank 1. The delivery pipe 51 is disposed within the bellows 52, with its ends respectively connected to the injector 4 and the receiving chamber. The delivery pipe 51 is made of a flexible material and has a predetermined length within the bellows 52 to accommodate the expansion or contraction of the bellows 52. When the injector 4 needs to be disassembled, the bellows 52 can be pulled, the bellows 52 is stretched, and at the same time, the delivery pipe 51 is extended synchronously, the injector 4 is rotated and disassembled. When the injector 4 is working, the bellows 52 is in a compressed state, the delivery pipe 51 retracts and connects the accommodating cavity and the injector 4, so that the injector 4 can spray fragrance.

[0040] Further, continue to refer to Figure 1-Figure 3The connecting assembly 5 further includes a pipe joint 53, which is connected to the bellows 52 and is connected to the feed pipe 51. The pipe joint 53 is used to connect the injector 4. Specifically, the inner circumference of the pipe joint 53 is provided with an internal thread, and the outer circumference of the injector 4 is provided with an external thread. The injector 4 is threadedly connected to the pipe joint 53, that is, the injector 4 and the pipe joint 53 are detachably connected. The cross-sectional shape of the bellows 52 is a rectangular structure. When the injector 4 needs to be disassembled, the bellows 52 is pulled, and the bellows 52 is stretched. At the same time, the feed pipe 51 is synchronously extended. The rectangular structure of the bellows 52 is convenient for the operator to hold it tightly with one hand and rotate the injector 4 with the other hand. The injector 4 rotates relative to the pipe joint 53, thereby removing the injector 4, making disassembly and assembly convenient.

[0041] Obviously, the above-described embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for the purpose of clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the manner in which the present invention is to be implemented. A person skilled in the art would be able to make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
