Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cigar tobacco products, specifically to an adjustable ring gauge cigar shaping and suction resistance measuring device. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of handmade cigars, the pressing and shaping of the cigar blank has a significant impact on the appearance and internal quality of the cigar. Currently, cigar production mostly uses fixed-size molding dies, making it impossible to simultaneously shape cigar blanks with different ring diameters; furthermore, the related equipment lacks environmental parameter measurement capabilities during the cigar shaping process.

[0003] As existing devices are used, the shortcomings of this technology have gradually become apparent, mainly in the following aspects:

[0004] The cigar shaper with publication number CN205912892U lacks circumference and shape adjustment functions. The resulting cigar wrappers have a fixed ring diameter and shape, limiting its application. A suitable pressing environment improves the yield of qualified cigars. For handmade whole-leaf cigars, a pressing environment of 20-25℃ and 60-65% relative humidity is ideal, resulting in the highest yield of qualified cigar appearance indicators. [1] Currently, most of the molding dies used in the handmade cigar production industry do not have the function of monitoring and controlling environmental parameters such as temperature and humidity during the molding process.

[0005] The multi-specification and shape whole-leaf handmade cigar shaper with publication number CN212035981U can only press cigar blanks with pre-set ring diameters and shapes, and cannot precisely control the shaping mold, lacking research on the control of the shaping environment. Furthermore, the stress on the cigar blank during shaping directly determines the uniformity of its internal structure, significantly affecting the combustibility and draw resistance of the finished cigar. Currently, no cigar blank shaping device with surface stress measurement capabilities has been found in the field of cigar rolling technology research. Moreover, the shaping process of the aforementioned devices is not automated, requiring manual pressing.

[0006] Currently, in the field of cigarette draw resistance testing, only finished cigarettes of fixed specifications can be tested, and it is not possible to test cigarette blanks with incomplete wrapping.

[0007] A novel artificial lip clamping device for cigars, with publication number CN217484293U, can realistically simulate the lip contact state when a cigar smoker takes a drag, solving the clamping problem for cigars of different ring gauges and sizes. However, it cannot measure the draw resistance of cigars with poor binding integrity during the production stage, thus limiting its role in cigar production.

[0008] As can be seen from the above, the existing technology obviously has inconveniences and defects in practical use, so it is necessary to improve it. Utility Model Content

[0009] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an adjustable ring gauge cigar shaping and draw resistance measuring device, which solves the problem that traditional devices cannot simultaneously automatically adjust the cigar ring gauge and measure the draw resistance of the cigarette's inner lining.

[0010] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution.

[0012] The cigarette resistance measurement module includes a cigar cigarette sealed wrapper, which is connected to a sealed suction device, and the suction end of the sealed suction device is connected to a suction pump.

[0013] As an optimized solution, the cigar homogenizing and shaping device includes a cigar homogenizing and shaping cylinder with its axis fixed horizontally. Several shaping force shaft bases are fixedly connected in parallel along the axial direction inside the cigar homogenizing and shaping cylinder. Several ring diameter adjusting force shafts are hinged around the center of each shaping force shaft base. Each ring diameter adjusting force shaft has a cigarette ring diameter matching plate fixedly connected to its swing end. A shaping channel is formed through the area between the several cigarette ring diameter matching plates. The cigar homogenizing and shaping cylinder has a clearance hole that communicates with the shaping channel.

[0014] As an optimized solution, the shaping force shaft base is coaxially fitted with a rotating force shaft motion fixing ring. The force shaft motion fixing ring is surrounded by a drive sliding hole corresponding to each ring diameter adjusting force shaft. The swing end of the ring diameter adjusting force shaft is fixed with a sliding protrusion that is slidably constrained in the drive sliding hole. The force shaft motion fixing ring is provided with an avoidance hole that communicates with the shaping channel.

[0015] As an optimized solution, several cigarette ring diameter adapter plates are respectively fixed to an end shaping cover at the same end, and the cigarette round head adapter shaping cap is formed by the several end shaping covers.

[0016] As an optimized solution, a fixed ring rotating rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the force axis motion fixed ring, and an arc-shaped clearance hole is opened on the outer wall of the cigar homogenizing shaping tube along the swing direction of the fixed ring rotating rod. The other end of the fixed ring rotating rod extends to the outside through the arc-shaped clearance hole.

[0018] As an optimized solution, the lower end of the cigar homogenizing shaping tube is fixed to the inner bottom surface of the cigar shaping box via a shaping tube base.

[0019] As an optimized solution, the outer wall of the cigar shaping box is provided with a humidifying water tank connected to the humidifying fan.

[0020] As an optimized solution, the cigar shaping box has an opening on the front, and the front of the cigar shaping box is provided with a sliding roller shutter door with an opening for opening.

[0022] This device can adjust the ring diameter of the cigar blank to adapt to the shaping of round-head and flat-tail cigars with different ring diameters, solving the problem that it is impossible to shape cigars with different ring diameters at the same time in cigar production.

[0023] This device achieves autonomous control of the shaping environment through humidifying and temperature-regulating fans, thereby improving the shaping efficiency of cigars and the quality of the cigar blanks after shaping.

Detailed Implementation

[0035] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are merely illustrative of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the adjustable ring gauge cigar shaping and draw resistance measuring device includes a workbench 1, on which a tobacco preform shaping module 2 and a tobacco draw resistance measuring module 3 are provided; the tobacco preform shaping module 2 includes several cigar shaping boxes 4 arranged in parallel, several cigar tobacco homogenizers 8 are arranged in parallel inside the cigar shaping box 4, a temperature regulating fan 6 is arranged in parallel on the inner back side of the cigar shaping box 4, and a humidifying fan 7 is arranged in parallel on the inner top surface of the cigar shaping box 4.

[0037] The cigarette draw resistance measurement module 3 includes a cigar cigarette sealed wrapper 11, which is connected to a sealed suction device 12. The suction end of the sealed suction device 12 is connected to a suction pump 13.

[0038] The cigar homogenizing and shaping device 8 includes a cigar homogenizing and shaping cylinder 14 with its axis fixed horizontally. Several shaping force shaft bases 23 are fixedly connected in parallel along the axis inside the cigar homogenizing and shaping cylinder 14. Several ring diameter adjusting force shafts 24 are hinged around the center of the shaping force shaft bases 23. Each ring diameter adjusting force shaft has a cigarette ring diameter matching plate 25 fixedly connected to its swing end. The cigarette ring diameter matching plate 25 has a connecting section that connects to the ring diameter adjusting force shaft and forms a shaping channel through the area between the several cigarette ring diameter matching plates 25. The cigar homogenizing and shaping cylinder 14 has a clearance hole that communicates with the shaping channel.

[0039] The shaping force shaft base 23 is coaxially fitted with a rotating force shaft motion fixing ring 17. The force shaft motion fixing ring 17 is surrounded by a drive sliding hole 18 corresponding to each ring diameter adjusting force shaft 24. The swing end of the ring diameter adjusting force shaft 24 is fixedly connected to a sliding protrusion 19 that is slidably constrained in the drive sliding hole 18. The force shaft motion fixing ring 17 is provided with an avoidance hole that communicates with the shaping channel.

[0040] Several cigarette ring diameter adapter plates 25 are fixed to the same end, and the cigarette round head adapter shaper cap 20 is formed by the several end shaper caps.

[0041] The structure of the cigar wrapper 11 is the same as that of the cigar homogenization and shaping device, except that it does not have a cigarette tip adapter shaping cap 20. One end of the cigar homogenization and shaping tube 14 inside the cigar wrapper 11 is connected to the sealed suction device 12 through a pipe, while both ends of the cigar homogenization and shaping tube 14 are connected to the cigar shaping box 4.

[0042] A fixed ring rotating rod 21 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the force axis moving fixed ring 17. An arc-shaped clearance hole 26 is provided on the outer wall of the cigar homogenizing shaping tube 14 along the swing direction of the fixed ring rotating rod 21. The other end of the fixed ring rotating rod 21 extends to the outside through the arc-shaped clearance hole 26.

[0043] A vertically mounted hydraulic cylinder telescopic rod 16 is hinged to the inner bottom surface of the cigar shaping box 4. The outer ends of several fixed ring rotating rods 21 are fixed to the linkage plate 22. The telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder telescopic rod 16 is hinged to the linkage plate 22.

[0044] The lower end of the cigar homogenizing shaping tube 14 is fixed to the inner bottom surface of the cigar shaping box 4 via the shaping tube base 15.

[0045] The outer wall of the cigar shaping box 4 is equipped with a humidifying water tank 9 connected to the humidifying fan 7.

[0046] The front of the cigar shaping box body 4 is provided with an opening, and a sliding rolling shutter door 5 for opening and closing the opening is arranged on the front of the cigar shaping box body 4.

[0047] This device can adjust the ring diameter of the cigar embryo to adapt to the shaping of round-headed and flat-tailed cigar cigarettes with different ring diameters, solving the problem that cigars with different ring diameters cannot be shaped simultaneously during the production of cigar cigarettes.

[0048] This device realizes the independent control of the shaping environment through the humidifying fan 7 and the temperature-adjusting fan 6, aiming to improve the shaping efficiency of cigar cigarettes and the quality of the embryo after shaping.

[0049] This device not only realizes the measurement of the draw resistance of finished cigar cigarettes, but also realizes the accurate measurement of the draw resistance of cigar embryos without coated cigar wrapper or with poor integrity of the coated cigar sheath during the production process of cigar cigarettes.

[0050] The innovation of this device lies in the innovation of the positional relationship between each structure. The specific structure and electrical connection method of each structure belong to the well-known attempts of those skilled in the art. Since it is not the innovation point of this invention, it will not be elaborated here.

[0051] It includes a parameter monitoring and control main body. A cigar embryo shaping module 2 and a cigarette draw resistance measurement module 3 are installed on the top of the parameter monitoring and control main body. A computer and a control integrated circuit are built in the parameter monitoring and control main body. The computer is connected to the cigar embryo shaping operation screen 10 and the draw resistance measurement operation screen in the operation console to realize the overall control of the equipment. On the left side of the top of the parameter monitoring main body, there is a cigar shaping box body 4 with the same structure arranged in a four-layer "field" structure. The positions of the cigar cigarette shaping box bodies are centrosymmetric. Two support columns are arranged on each side of the first-layer cigar cigarette shaping box body. The support columns are connected to the tabletop to provide a working area for the second-layer cigar shaping box body 4. The cigar cigarette shaping box bodies with the same structure and independent operation form the cigar embryo shaping module 2.

[0052] In the cigar draw resistance measurement module 3, located at the top right of the parameter monitoring main body, the draw resistance measurement operation screen is positioned directly in front of the right side of the equipment monitoring and control main body. This operation screen is connected to the computer within the equipment monitoring and control main body, allowing operators to interactively control the display and monitor and regulate the cigar draw resistance measurement. Above the draw resistance measurement operation screen, at the top right of the equipment monitoring and control main body, is a cigar sealing wrapper 11, providing a sealed environment for measuring the draw resistance of cigars with different ring gauges. The shaping force shaft base 23 at the tail of the cigar wrapper 11 is connected to the suction pipe, which is connected to the sealed suction device 12 (containing a force sensor and a flow sensor) located at the top rear of the equipment monitoring and control main body. This device monitors the cigar's suction flow and resistance in real time. The sealed suction device 12 (containing a force sensor and a flow sensor) is connected to the suction pump 13 on the left side, which provides suction force to the cigar. The suction force of the suction pump 13 can be autonomously adjusted via the resistance measurement operation screen. The resistance measurement operation screen, the cigar wrapper 11, the sealed suction device 12 (containing a force sensor and a flow sensor), and the suction pump 13 together constitute the cigar measurement module.

[0053] Inside the cigar shaping chamber 4, nine identical cigar homogenizers 8 form the main body of the cigar shaping process. Each homogenizer 8 can simultaneously shape cigars of different ring gauges. A temperature-regulating fan 6 is located at the rear of the cigar shaping chamber 4, enabling autonomous temperature control. Humidifying fans 7 are located at the top and sides of the cigar shaping chamber 4, providing autonomous humidity control. Outside the cigar shaping chamber 4, a humidifying water tank 9 and a cigar shaping operation screen 10 are located. The humidifying water tank 9 provides purified water to the humidifying fans 7, while the cigar shaping operation screen 10 provides overall control over the cigar shaping process. A sliding roller shutter door 5 is located at the front of the cigar shaping chamber 4, providing a closed environment during cigar shaping. The interactive control screen 10 for cigar tobacco blank shaping enables the temperature-regulating fan 6, humidifying fan 7, and humidifying water tank 9 to adjust the temperature and humidity of the cigar shaping chamber 4 and to provide airflow for cleaning the chamber. At the same time, it controls the cigar homogenizing shaper 8 to shape cigar tobacco blanks with different ring diameters.

[0054] In the cigar homogenizing and shaping device 8, a shaping cylinder base 15 is provided at the bottom, and a cigar homogenizing and shaping cylinder 14 is provided directly above the base. The cigar homogenizing and shaping cylinder 14 is connected to a hydraulic cylinder telescopic force rod 16 (with a built-in cigarette force sensor) provided on the left side via a load-bearing connecting rod. The cigar homogenizing and shaping cylinder 14, from the outside in, includes a force shaft movement fixing ring 17, a fixing ring rotation rod 21, a ring diameter adjustment force shaft 24, a cigarette ring diameter adapter rolling plate 25, and a cigarette round head adapter shaping cap 20. A shaping force shaft base 23 is provided at the tail of the cigar homogenizing and shaping cylinder 14. The force shaft movement fixing ring 17 in the cigar homogenizing and shaping cylinder 14 is connected to the fixing ring rotation rod 21, and the fixing ring rotation rod 21 is connected to the load-bearing connecting rod outside the cigar homogenizing and shaping cylinder 14. A hydraulic cylinder telescopic force rod 16 (containing a cigarette force sensor) is provided below the load-bearing connecting rod. The cigar homogenizing and shaping tube 14 rotates around the weighing connecting rod 14 via the movement of the hydraulic cylinder telescopic force rod 16 (containing a cigarette force sensor), further driving the fixed rotating rod to rotate, and driving the power shaft moving fixed ring 17 to rotate. The shaping force shaft base 23 in the cigar homogenizing and shaping tube 14 fixes the ring diameter adjusting force shaft 24. By rotating the force shaft moving fixed ring 17 in the cigar homogenizing and shaping tube 14, the ring diameter adjusting force shaft 24 is driven to move in a circular contraction motion towards the center. The ring diameter adjusting force shaft 24 further pushes the cigarette ring diameter matching rolling plate 25 and the cigarette round head matching shaping cap 20 to converge and contract towards the center, achieving the purpose of matching the ring diameter of the cigar cigarette. (The structure of the cigar cigarette sealing wrapper 11 is the same as the working principle of the cigar homogenizing and shaping tube 14, but it does not have a cigarette round head matching shaping cap).

[0055] The working principle of this device is as follows:

[0056] Before shaping the wrapped cigar tobacco, the operator activates the cigar shaping station via the interactive control panel 10 and cleans the cigar shaping chamber 4. The humidifying fan 7 and temperature-regulating fan 6 only circulate air within the chamber to clean away tobacco debris; temperature and humidity control are not available during this process. After cleaning, the tobacco is placed into the cigar homogenizer 8 within the activated cigar shaping chamber 4. The operator then uses the cigar shaping control panel 10 to interactively control the selected homogenizer 8, setting the required ring diameter and overall temperature and humidity parameters for each homogenizer. The operator then closes the cigar shaping chamber 4 with the sliding shutter door 5. During cigar shaping, the operator can monitor the temperature and humidity inside the chamber and the surface stress on the tobacco through the cigar shaping control panel 10 in real time. After the operation is completed, the parameter monitoring and control unit supplies power to the tobacco preform shaping module 2 and issues commands to each component through the built-in computer. First, the parameter monitoring and control unit controls the power supply to the temperature and humidity sensor at the top of the humidifying fan 7 connecting column and the tobacco force sensor in the hydraulic cylinder telescopic rod through the control integrated circuit. Each sensor transmits data to the computer in real time, and the data on the temperature and humidity inside the box and the force change chart on the surface of the tobacco are displayed in real time on the cigar preform shaping operation screen 10. At the same time, the hydraulic cylinder telescopic rod 16 in the cigar homogenizing and shaping device 8 of the parameter monitoring and control unit starts to work, applying force to the load-bearing connecting rod. The load-bearing connecting rod further pushes the fixed ring rotating rod 21 to drive the power shaft to rotate the fixed ring 17, causing the ring diameter adjusting force shaft 24 to converge and contract towards the cigar preform, and pushing the tobacco ring diameter matching rolling plate 25 and the tobacco round head matching shaping cap 20 to start rotating and contracting at the same time. This achieves the purpose of matching and shaping the cigar ring diameter. Simultaneously, the parameter monitoring and control unit's control computer supplies power to the temperature-regulating fan 6 and humidifying fan 7 inside the cigar shaping box 4. The two temperature-regulating fans 6 at the rear of the cigar shaping box 4 regulate the temperature inside the box, while the three humidifying fans 7 located at the top center and on the left and right sides of the cigar shaping box 4 spray water mist while fanning their blades, uniformly humidifying the interior of the cigar shaping box 4. Through the temperature-regulating fans 6 and humidifying fans 7, the internal temperature and humidity of the cigar shaping box are regulated.

[0057] If the operator wants to measure the draw resistance of the shaped tobacco preform or finished cigar, they can open the cigar draw resistance measurement workbench 1 via the interactive control panel, place the tobacco preform into the cigar wrapper 11, and input the cigar ring diameter and draw force parameters into the draw resistance measurement control panel. After the interaction is complete, the operator can check the sealing effect of the cigar wrapper 11 on the cigar in the draw resistance measurement control panel, and at the same time observe the surface stress and draw resistance of the cigar. After the operation is completed, the parameter monitoring and control unit controls the power supply to the cigarette draw resistance measurement module 3, and the cigarette draw resistance measurement motor module simultaneously controls the power supply to the cigar cigarette sealing wrapper 11. The hydraulic cylinder telescopic rod 16 (containing a cigarette force sensor) in the cigar cigarette sealing wrapper 11 begins to extend and retract. The load-bearing connecting rod receives the rotational force provided by the hydraulic cylinder telescopic rod 16. The load-bearing connecting rod rotates around the cigar cigarette sealing wrapper 11. The force axis motion fixing ring 17 in the cigar cigarette sealing wrapper 11 is connected to the fixing ring rotating rod 21. The load-bearing connecting rod simultaneously drives the fixing ring rotating rod 21 and the force axis motion fixing ring 17 to rotate, and pushes the cigarette ring diameter matching rolling plate 25 to close the cigarette, realizing the sealing and wrapping effect on the surface of the cigar cigarette. After the device confirms that the cigar is completely wrapped, the operator can use the interactive control panel to control the suction pump 13 and the sealed suction device 12 to perform suction calibration tests on the cigar in the sealed wrapper 11, achieving a sealed wrapping effect on the cigar surface and thus accurately measuring the cigar's suction resistance. If the test fails, the operator can use the suction resistance measurement control panel to further tighten the cigar wrapper 11 until the data monitored by the force sensor and flow sensor in the sealed suction device 12 reaches the standard value for suction resistance measurement. If the test passes, the suction pump 13 and the sealed suction device 12 will begin to draw according to the parameters input by the operator in the suction resistance measurement control panel. Meanwhile, the flow sensor and force sensor in the sealed suction device 12 monitor the suction flow and resistance in real time, achieving the purpose of real-time calibration and monitoring of the suction device; the cigarette force sensor in the hydraulic cylinder telescopic rod 16 simultaneously monitors the force on the surface of the cigar, detecting the sealing and wrapping of the cigar by the cigar seal wrapper 11, improving the accuracy and precision of the suction resistance detection. The force sensor, cigarette surface force sensor, and flow sensor in the cigarette suction resistance measurement module 3 transmit data to the computer in real time. The computer integrates and calculates the data collected during the measurement time and converts it into a visual chart on the suction resistance measurement operation screen. The operator can select the chart type through interactive control of the suction resistance measurement operation screen, so that the cigar force and suction resistance data can be presented in appropriate charts in different application scenarios such as data analysis, report preparation, and academic research, achieving the purpose of measuring the cigar suction resistance and real-time monitoring of the surface force.
