[0002] The filling device for processing Xiaoqinggan (a type of tangerine peel) cigarette flavoring capsules balances the protection of flavoring activity with the needs of industrial mass production through technological innovation, becoming a core link in the quality control of Xiaoqinggan capsules. It employs a servo-controlled needle valve and a constant temperature module (20-25℃) to prevent the volatilization and loss of heat-sensitive components such as hesperidin and limonene in the Xiaoqinggan flavoring, maintaining the integrity of aroma molecules. A nitrogen environment isolates oxygen, ensuring a flavoring oxidation rate of ≤2%, extending the shelf life of the capsules. It is compatible with different capsule sizes (2-5mm in diameter) and supports multiple formula switching between Xiaoqinggan and Pu'er tea flavorings, adapting to diverse market demands.
