Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tobacco preservation and storage technology, specifically to a physical moisture-controlling anti-drying storage box. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, when purchasing tobacco leaves or shredded tobacco for cigarette storage, users generally lack attention to tobacco humidification techniques, leading to tobacco easily dehydrating and drying out after prolonged storage in the home environment. This phenomenon is particularly pronounced in the dry northern regions, where dried tobacco leaves, when rolled, exhibit a significantly deteriorated taste, producing an irritating odor and causing a burning sensation in the throat.
[0003] If commercially available cigarettes are not consumed promptly after opening, the tobacco inside will quickly dehydrate due to insufficient humidity, resulting in a significant difference in flavor compared to when they were first opened, and may even develop an irritating odor, leading to tobacco waste.
[0004] When users carry smoking devices in water-related scenarios, conventional cigarette boxes are insufficient to prevent the intrusion of external water stains, sand particles, and other contaminants. Furthermore, paper cigarette boxes are easily damaged by moisture, severely limiting the portability and protective properties of smoking devices in humid or dusty environments. In addition, the problem of dry air continuously passing through packaging gaps and accelerating the loss of tobacco moisture has not been effectively solved.
[0005] Therefore, a physical humidity-controlled, anti-drying storage box is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0028] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a physical humidity-controlled anti-drying storage box, including a shell 1, a supporting core 2, and a constant humidity rod 3. The shell 1 includes a lower shell 12, and a core groove 121 is opened inside the lower shell 12. The supporting core 2 is installed in the core groove 121. An upper shell 11 is provided at the upper end of the lower shell 12. A storage groove 21 is opened in the middle of the supporting core 2. Multiple sets of tube grooves 22 are opened on the outside of the supporting core 2. The constant humidity rod 3 is installed in the tube grooves 22. The cross-section of the constant humidity rod 3 is semi-circular. In the use state, the supporting core 2 and the constant humidity rod 3 are both installed in the core groove 121.
[0029] During use, the lower shell 12 and the upper shell 11 together form a sealed or semi-sealed space, providing physical protection for the tobacco. The sealed space also reduces the continuous and accelerated loss of tobacco moisture by dry air through packaging gaps. The support core 2 is stably installed in the core groove 121, providing a stable storage platform for the tobacco. The storage groove 21 in the middle of the support core 2 is used to directly store items. The multiple sets of tube grooves 22 on the outside of the support core 2 provide installation positions for the humidity control rod 3, so that the humidity control rod 3 can be evenly distributed around the tobacco to achieve all-round humidity control.
[0030] The lower shell 12 has a mounting groove 122 on the left side, and the upper shell 11 has a keyway 111 fixed at the lower left side. In use, the keyway 111 is installed inside the mounting groove 122. The mounting groove 122 is mainly used to receive and fix the keyway 111 of the upper shell 11, so as to ensure a stable connection between the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12.
[0031] The lower shell 12 is provided with a mating protrusion 123 at the upper end, and the upper shell 11 is provided with a mating groove 112 at the lower end. The mating protrusion 123 corresponds to the mating groove 112. By inserting the mating protrusion 123 into the mating groove 112, the tightness and stability of the connection between the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 are further enhanced, making the connection between the two more secure, effectively preventing outside air from entering the storage box, and better maintaining the humidity environment inside the box.
[0032] Both the mating protrusion 123 and the keyway 111 have sealing grooves 4 on their outer sides. A sealing ring 5 is installed in the sealing groove 4. The sealing ring 5 is made of rubber. By installing the sealing ring 5 in the sealing groove 4, when the mating protrusion 123 and the mating groove 112 are engaged, and the keyway 111 and the mounting groove 122 are engaged, the sealing ring 5 can fill the gaps and play a good sealing role, preventing the entry and exit of air and moisture, and further improving the sealing performance of the storage box.
[0033] The constant humidity rod 3 is provided with multiple sets of mounting grooves 31. The mounting grooves 31 are positioned corresponding to the tube groove 22. The mounting grooves 31 are mainly used to fix the position of the constant humidity rod 3 in the tube groove 22, ensuring that the constant humidity rod 3 can be stably installed in the tube groove 22 and is not easy to loosen or shift.
[0034] The humidity control bar 3 has multiple segmented sheets 32 in the middle. The humidity control bar 3 is made of polyurethane foam. By dividing the internal space of the humidity control bar 3, the segmented sheets 32 promote the uniform distribution of moisture, so that the humidity control bar 3 can absorb and release moisture more evenly, thereby achieving uniform humidity control. The polyurethane foam has good breathability and elasticity.
[0035] As one embodiment of this utility model: when using the physical humidity-controlled anti-drying storage box, firstly, the pre-treated humidity rods 3 are inserted one by one into the tube grooves 22 on the outside of the support core 2. The mounting grooves 31 are used to fix the position of the humidity rods 3 in the tube grooves 22, ensuring that the humidity rods 3 can be stably installed in the tube grooves 22 and are not easy to loosen or shift. Then, the support core 2 with the humidity rods 3 installed is vertically placed into the core groove 121 of the lower shell 12.
[0036] Open the upper shell 11 and place the item into the storage slot 21 of the support core 2. When the upper shell 11 is closed, the mating protrusion 123 is embedded into the mating groove 112, which further enhances the tightness and stability of the connection between the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12, making the connection between the two more secure. By installing the sealing ring 5 in the sealing groove 4, when the mating protrusion 123 and the mating groove 112 are engaged, and the keyway 111 and the mounting groove 122 are engaged, the sealing ring 5 can fill the gap and play a good sealing role. Thus, the use of the physical humidity control anti-drying storage box is completed.
