The protrusion 22 is inserted into the groove 12, which realizes the positioning of the two, thereby avoiding relative rotation between the two along their own circumference and improving the reliability of the brush roller.
[0054] Furthermore, the brush cylinder 30 can be either one-piece or two-piece, with brushes on its outer surface to achieve the cleaning effect on tobacco.
[0055] Please return to the reference. Figure 1and Figure 2 For example, the brush cylinder 30 in this embodiment adopts a split structure. Specifically, the brush cylinder 30 includes several brush sub-cylinders 31. One of the two ends of the brush sub-cylinder 31 along its own axial direction is provided with a first pin 311 and the other is provided with a first pin hole 312. The first pin 311 of one brush sub-cylinder 31 is inserted into the first pin hole 312 of another brush sub-cylinder 31, realizing the positioning and installation between the various brush sub-cylinders 31, thereby realizing the assembly and forming of the brush cylinder 30.
[0056] Furthermore, the locking assembly has a second pin 416 at one end along its own axial direction and a second pin hole 417 at the other end. The second pin 416 can be engaged with the first pin hole 312 of the brush cylinder 30, and the second pin hole 417 can be engaged with the first pin 311 of the brush cylinder 30. This improves the connection between the locking ring 41 and the brush cylinder 30, realizes the positioning and installation between the two, and avoids problems such as end face wear caused by relative rotation between the two.
[0057] Optionally, at least two of each of the first pin 311, the first pin hole 312, the second pin 416, and the second pin hole 417 are provided to improve the limiting effect between the brush cylinders 31 and the limiting effect between the brush cylinder 30 and the locking ring 41.
