Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of cigarette flavoring bead testing, specifically relating to a device for measuring the hardness of cigarette flavoring beads. Background Technology

[0002] Cigarette flavor capsules, as an innovative design element, are cleverly embedded in tobacco filters. These capsules are tiny beads containing different types of flavoring liquids. When a consumer gently squeezes the capsule, it releases a unique aroma, adding rich layers and flavor variations to the smoking experience. The hardness of the flavor capsule, that is, the pressure it withstands when squeezed until it bursts, is a core quality indicator in the capsule manufacturing process, directly affecting its performance and the consumer experience.

[0003] Humidity is a key environmental factor affecting the hardness of burst beads, and its changes have a significant impact on the physical properties of burst beads. In high humidity environments, the colloidal material on the outer layer of burst beads easily absorbs moisture from the air, leading to a decrease in the overall hardness of the burst beads, which may affect their stability and performance during use. Conversely, under dry conditions, burst beads may become too hard due to water loss, which is also detrimental to their normal function.

[0004] Given the importance of humidity in measuring the hardness of burst beads, such measurements are typically performed under constant humidity conditions to ensure accuracy and repeatability. However, in practice, especially when faced with regional climate variations, this requirement presents a challenge. For example, in autumn and winter, the local climate is often exceptionally dry, with air humidity frequently below 20%, while in spring and summer, rainfall is abundant, and humidity can reach over 70%. This significant fluctuation in humidity undoubtedly increases the difficulty and uncertainty of burst bead hardness measurements.

[0005] In testing rooms, dehumidifiers and humidifiers are commonly used to effectively regulate humidity. Dehumidifiers remove moisture from the air when humidity is too high, reducing indoor humidity; while humidifiers release water vapor into the air when it is too dry, increasing indoor humidity. However, when the testing room is large, or when the dehumidifier / humidifier is relatively far from the measuring instruments, a tricky problem arises: these devices struggle to accurately and effectively control the humidity around the instruments. Due to distance and air circulation, the humidity regulation effect of the devices is significantly reduced when it reaches the area around the instruments, resulting in potentially large fluctuations in humidity around them.

[0006] In addition, to maintain relatively stable indoor humidity, testing rooms often need to have their doors and windows tightly closed to reduce interference from outside air. However, this practice brings a series of negative effects. On the one hand, closed doors and windows hinder indoor air circulation, making it difficult to ensure that indoor humidity can be evenly and accurately adjusted to the required level evenly, even with dehumidifiers and humidifiers running. On the other hand, measurement personnel will feel noticeably uncomfortable after being in such a closed, poorly ventilated environment for a long time. The air in a closed space is not fresh, and the carbon dioxide concentration gradually increases while the oxygen content relatively decreases. This may cause measurement personnel to experience symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, and chest tightness, which not only affects work efficiency but may also pose potential health hazards to the measurement personnel in the long run. Utility Model Content

[0007] In view of this, the purpose of this application is to provide a device for measuring the hardness of tobacco flavor capsules, so as to solve the above problems.

[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0009] This application provides a device for measuring the hardness of cigarette pods. The device includes a controller, a measuring mechanism, a humidity control mechanism, and a sealing cover. The controller is electrically connected to the measuring mechanism and the humidity control mechanism. The measuring mechanism and the humidity control mechanism are disposed inside the sealing cover, and there is a communicating air channel between them. The humidity control mechanism is provided with a receiving cavity for storing a humidity regulator. The measuring mechanism includes a stage and a pressure component. The stage is used to place the pod to be measured, and the pressure component is arranged perpendicular to the stage. The pressure component is used to apply pressure to the pod to be measured and obtain the hardness measurement result of the pod.

[0010] Furthermore, the tobacco capsule hardness measuring device also includes an early warning mechanism, a temperature sensor, and a humidity sensor, with the temperature sensor and humidity sensor housed inside a sealed cover; the early warning mechanism is electrically connected to the temperature sensor and humidity sensor to generate an early warning signal.

[0011] Furthermore, the humidity regulator is a salt solution.

[0012] Furthermore, the receiving cavity has multiple fixing slots for fixing the container containing the salt solution.

[0013] Furthermore, the tobacco capsule hardness measuring device also includes a hopper mechanism, which comprises a feeding element, a turntable, and a discharging element. The feeding element, turntable, and discharging element are arranged in the same vertical direction, with the turntable positioned between the feeding element and the discharging element. The feeding element is used to place the capsule to be measured. The turntable has an opening, which is used to convey the capsule to be measured to the discharging element when the opening is in communication with the feeding element. The discharging element is positioned above the stage and is used to convey the capsule to be measured to the stage.

[0014] Furthermore, the opening includes a first opening and a second opening, which are spaced apart, and the opening sizes of the first opening and the second opening are different.

[0015] Furthermore, the tobacco capsule hardness measuring device also includes a cleaning mechanism located near the stage, which is used to clean the stage.

[0016] Furthermore, the tobacco capsule hardness measuring device also includes a waste container, which is located below the stage and is used to collect tobacco capsule waste.

[0017] Different types of salt solutions have different saturated vapor pressures. Salt solutions can regulate ambient humidity based on their hygroscopic and desorption properties. Many salts interact with water vapor in the air. From a microscopic perspective, ions on the surface of salt crystals attract water molecules. When the partial pressure of water vapor in the environment is greater than the partial pressure of water vapor at the surface of the salt solution, water vapor molecules diffuse towards the salt solution surface and are absorbed; this process is called hygroscopic absorption.

[0018] Conversely, when the partial pressure of water vapor in the environment is lower than that at the surface of the salt solution, water molecules in the salt solution diffuse into the air, a process known as desorption. When the rates of moisture absorption and desorption reach equilibrium, a relatively stable humidity environment is formed around the salt solution.

[0019] As can be seen from the above technical solution, the advantages and positive effects of the tobacco flavor capsule hardness measuring device proposed in this application are as follows:

[0020] This application innovatively creates a sealed space within the measuring device by using a sealing cover to form the hopper mechanism for storing the measuring beads and the area surrounding the measuring mechanism. Furthermore, a humidity control mechanism is installed within this sealed space, which, in conjunction with humidity regulators, automatically adjusts the humidity within the sealed space, thus constructing a highly efficient and precise humidity environment control system. The measuring device also includes an early warning mechanism, which effectively alerts the measuring personnel to changes in the environment, improving the accuracy of the measuring beads' hardness measurement.

[0021] Unlike existing technologies that use dehumidifiers and humidifiers to regulate humidity in traditional testing chambers, the humidity control mechanism and sealing cover in this application effectively overcome the limitations of these traditional methods. The sealing cover isolates the measuring device from the external environment, creating a relatively independent and stable microenvironment and reducing direct interference from changes in external humidity. The humidity control mechanism precisely adjusts the humidity within the sealing cover, sensing the humidity level in real time and accurately increasing or decreasing moisture levels to stabilize the humidity parameters around the measuring device.

[0022] This collaborative approach significantly reduces humidity fluctuations during burst bead hardness measurement, ensuring measurements are conducted under stable and suitable humidity conditions. This not only improves the accuracy of burst bead hardness measurements and avoids errors caused by humidity fluctuations, but also provides a more comfortable and healthy working environment for measurement personnel, ensuring the smooth progress of the measurement work and protecting their physical and mental well-being.

[0045] The detailed features and advantages of this application are described below in the specific embodiments. The content of this description is sufficient to enable any person skilled in the art to understand the technical content of this application and implement it accordingly. Based on the specification, claims and drawings disclosed in this specification, a person skilled in the art can easily understand the related objectives and advantages of this application.

[0046] It should be noted that in this specification, similar reference numerals and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0047] In the description of this embodiment, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "inner", "bottom", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship in which the product is usually placed during use. They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application.

[0048] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0049] This application provides a device for measuring the hardness of cigarette burst beads. The device includes: a controller (not shown), a measuring mechanism 20, a humidity control mechanism 10, an early warning mechanism (not shown), a hopper mechanism 30, a cleaning mechanism 34, a waste box 50, and a sealing cover 40.

[0050] The controller is electrically connected to the measuring mechanism 20, the humidity control mechanism 10, the early warning mechanism, the hopper mechanism 30, and the cleaning mechanism 34, and is used to transmit control signals to these mechanisms and receive the signal results fed back by these mechanisms.

[0051] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The sealing cover 40 can partially seal the area where the bursting beads to be measured are placed in the humidity control mechanism 10 and the hopper mechanism 30, and maintain the temperature and humidity environment where the bursting beads are placed through the humidity control mechanism 10.

[0052] The sealing cover 40 can also be set outside the measuring mechanism 20, the early warning mechanism, the humidity control mechanism 10, the hopper mechanism 30, the cleaning mechanism 34 and the waste box 50 to seal these components. There is a connected air channel between the measuring mechanism 20 and the humidity control mechanism 10 to further reduce the influence of the external environment on the temperature and humidity of the bursting beads during the hardness measurement process.

[0053] The humidity control mechanism 10 is provided with a receiving cavity, which contains a humidity regulator, which can be a salt solution. The receiving cavity has multiple fixing slots 11, which can be used to fix containers containing salt solutions.

[0054] The outer surface of the humidity control mechanism 10 is provided with a handle 12, which is drawer-shaped. The humidity control mechanism 10 can be pulled out of the sealing cover 40 through the handle 12 to replace the salt solution.

[0055] Salt solutions have excellent humidity regulation capabilities and can be flexibly adjusted according to different humidity requirements.

[0056] For example, if the ambient humidity needs to be controlled at around 40-50%, simply add 100ml of saturated potassium carbonate solution. If a higher humidity environment is required, a saturated sodium chloride solution can be used instead; and if a lower humidity is required, a saturated magnesium chloride solution is better.

[0057] It is understandable that different types of salt solutions have different saturated vapor pressures, and the function of salt solutions in regulating environmental humidity relies on their unique hygroscopic and desorption properties.

[0058] Many salts interact with water vapor in the air. At a microscopic level, ions on the surface of salt crystals have a strong attraction to water molecules. When the partial pressure of water vapor in the environment is higher than the partial pressure of water vapor at the surface of the salt solution, water vapor molecules spontaneously diffuse towards the salt solution surface and are absorbed by the salt solution; this process is called hygroscopic absorption.

[0059] Conversely, if the partial pressure of water vapor in the environment is lower than that at the surface of the salt solution, water molecules in the salt solution will diffuse into the air; this is the desorption process. When the rates of moisture absorption and desorption reach a dynamic equilibrium, a relatively stable humidity environment is formed around the salt solution.

[0060] The tobacco capsule hardness measuring device also includes a temperature sensor 41 and a humidity sensor 42, which are disposed inside the sealed cover 40 to obtain the temperature and humidity of the environment inside the sealed cover 40.

[0061] The early warning mechanism is electrically connected to the temperature sensor 41 and the humidity sensor 42. When the early warning mechanism detects that the ambient temperature and humidity inside the sealed cover 40 exceed the preset values, the early warning mechanism generates an early warning signal and sends the early warning signal to the controller. The controller can remind the relevant measurement personnel through light, sound and other means.

[0062] The measuring mechanism 20 includes a stage 22 and a pressure component 21. The stage 22 is used to place the burst beads to be measured. The pressure component 21 is set perpendicular to the stage 22. The pressure component 21 applies pressure to the burst beads to be measured according to the instructions issued by the controller and obtains the pressure values ​​that the burst beads can withstand for hardness. These pressure values ​​are used as the measurement results of the burst bead hardness.

[0063] In the implementation of this application, a pressure sensor can be provided on the surface where the pressure component 21 is released from the burst bead to be measured, and the pressure sensor can be used to obtain the pressure value that the burst bead can withstand for hardness.

[0064] The pressure component 21 can also measure the hardness of the burst beads according to the pressure value preset by the controller, and remove relevant interference data through an algorithm to obtain a more accurate pressure value.

[0065] Alternatively, a pressure sensor can be installed on the stage 22 to determine the pressure value that the burst bead can withstand based on the pressure changes on the stage 22.

[0066] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The hopper mechanism 30 includes a feeding element 31, a turntable 32, and a discharging element 33. The feeding element 31, the turntable 32, and the discharging element 33 are arranged in the same vertical direction, and the turntable 32 is arranged between the feeding element 31 and the discharging element 33.

[0067] The feeding element 31 is used to place the burst beads to be measured. The turntable 32 has an opening, which is used to convey the burst beads to be measured to the unloading element 33 when the opening is in communication with the feeding element 31. The unloading element 33 is disposed above the stage 22, and is used to convey the burst beads to be measured to the stage 22.

[0068] First, the turntable 32 can be connected to a drive mechanism (not shown in the figure). Driven by the drive mechanism, the turntable 32 can rotate relative to the feeding element 31.

[0069] Secondly, when the opening on the turntable 32 rotates to align with the feeding element 31 and forms a conductive state, the measuring beads in the feeding element 31 will move along the opening of the turntable 32 to the unloading element 33.

[0070] Subsequently, the feeding element 33 will accurately place the burst bead to be measured onto the stage 22 in order to carry out the burst bead hardness measurement.

[0071] The opening of the turntable 32 may include a first opening and a second opening. The first opening and the second opening are spaced apart on the turntable 32, and the opening sizes of the first opening and the second opening are different.

[0072] Driven by the drive mechanism, the feeding element 33 can switch to connect to openings of different sizes to better adapt to the hardness measurement of different burst bead specifications.

[0073] Additionally, in certain special scenarios, different opening sizes can also adjust the number of burst beads flowing through turntable 32 per unit time.

[0074] When the hopper mechanism 30 performs the feeding operation to measure the burst beads, the feeding element 33 moves downward to accurately place the burst bead sample in the central area of ​​the stage 22. Subsequently, the feeding tube rises back to its initial position.

[0075] The stage 22 and the sensor are rigidly connected to ensure the accuracy and stability of the measurement. Once the popping bead sample is in place, the pressure assembly 21 descends slowly under the drive of a motor, gradually compressing the popping bead until it bursts. It is worth noting that the pressure assembly 21 maintains a certain distance from the stage 22 in the initial state.

[0076] After the popping bead sample is crushed, the pressure component 21 will quickly and smoothly retreat to its initial position, thus completing the entire compression process.

[0077] The cleaning mechanism 34 can be reasonably positioned around the stage 22. After the pressure component 21 completes the squeezing operation of the burst beads, the cleaning mechanism 34 can play its role in thoroughly cleaning the stage 22, thereby facilitating the smooth progress of the next burst bead hardness measurement.

[0078] For example, the cleaning mechanism 34 can be a nozzle with a certain pressure, which washes away the residual popping beads on the platform 22 with water flow.

[0079] The cleaning mechanism 34 can also be a brush, which is connected to the drive mechanism. The drive mechanism drives the brush to clean the platform 22.

[0080] Waste box 50 can be set below platform 22. Waste box 50 is used to collect the residue such as popping beads cleaned by cleaning mechanism 34.
