Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of tobacco storage technology, and in particular to tobacco storage cabinets and tobacco storage systems. Background Technology

[0002] In the tobacco processing industry, tobacco storage is a crucial step in ensuring tobacco quality. Generally, tobacco is stored temporarily by placing it in a storage cabinet.

[0003] However, the tobacco storage cabinets used in related technologies are often made of ordinary cabinets, and the internal temperature of these cabinets is easily affected by the external environment, resulting in significant fluctuations. At high temperatures, the chemical components in the tobacco react more rapidly, causing the tobacco to lose its aroma, darken in color, and may even develop off-flavors, severely impacting its quality. Simultaneously, it also accelerates the loss of moisture from the tobacco, leading to poor quality. Conversely, at low temperatures, the tobacco's flexibility decreases, making it prone to breakage during subsequent processing and increasing raw material loss. Utility Model Content

[0017] In one embodiment, the wire storage cabinet further includes an arc-shaped guide rail; the arc-shaped guide rail is connected to the cabinet body; the arc-shaped guide rail is provided with an arc-shaped slide rail portion, and the cover body is provided with a sliding engagement portion; one of the arc-shaped slide rail portion and the sliding engagement portion is a protrusion, and the other is a recess; the protrusion and the recess are in a limiting sliding engagement, so that the sliding engagement portion can rotate relative to the arc-shaped slide rail portion;

[0030] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0031] See Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a tobacco storage cabinet 100 according to an embodiment of this application is shown. The tobacco storage cabinet 100 provided in this embodiment includes a cabinet body 110 and a heat exchange assembly 120. The cabinet body 110 is provided with a tobacco storage cavity 110a and a feed inlet. The feed inlet is connected to the tobacco storage cavity 110a. The feed inlet is used to supply tobacco into the tobacco storage cavity 110a.

[0032] The heat exchange component 120 is in cooperation with the outer wall of the cabinet 110 for heat transfer and is used to cool or heat the cabinet 110.

[0033] Understandably, when the heat exchange component 120 cools or heats the cabinet 110, the cabinet 110 can receive cold or heat from the heat exchange component 120, thereby lowering or raising the temperature inside the tobacco storage cavity 110a. This provides a better thermal environment for storing tobacco, which helps inhibit oxidation and microbial activity, thus ensuring the activity, aroma, and quality of the tobacco and reducing the impact of excessively high or low external temperatures on tobacco quality. Furthermore, in a lower temperature storage environment, the evaporation rate of moisture in the tobacco decreases, achieving moisture retention and promoting tobacco quality. When the heat exchange component 120 heats the cabinet, the cabinet can receive the heat from the heat exchange component 120, thus preventing the temperature inside the tobacco storage cavity 110a from becoming too low, which helps improve the toughness of the tobacco and thus improve tobacco quality.

[0034] It should be noted that the descriptions of cold energy, low temperature, and heat energy in the above embodiments are relative concepts, not absolute concepts with specific values. Specifically, the cold energy and low temperature of the heat exchange component 120 refer to the fact that the heat energy and temperature of the heat exchange component 120 are lower than the heat energy and temperature of the air and tobacco in the tobacco storage chamber 110a, and are not specific to any particular value or range. The heat energy of the heat exchange component 120 refers to the fact that the heat energy of the heat exchange component 120 is higher than that of the air and tobacco in the tobacco storage chamber 110a. Furthermore, the heat transfer in the above embodiments refers to heat transfer, which can be heat transfer between solids through direct contact, or heat transfer through indirect contact processes such as air conduction, etc., without further limitations.

[0035] The heat exchange medium can refer to either a cooling medium or a heating medium. Specifically, the cooling medium and the heating medium can refer to different media, such as cold water or refrigerant for cooling, and hot water or steam for heating. Alternatively, the cooling medium and the heating medium can refer to the same medium.

[0036] In one example, both the cooling medium and the heating medium refer to room temperature water (15℃ ~ 25℃). When the temperature inside the wire storage chamber 110a is lower than the temperature of the room temperature water, the heat exchange medium provides heat to the wire storage chamber 110a. Conversely, when the temperature inside the wire storage chamber 110a is higher than the temperature of the room temperature water, the heat exchange medium provides cooling to the wire storage chamber 110a.

[0037] It should be noted that the heat exchange component 120 in the above embodiments can be, but is not limited to, a semiconductor refrigeration chip, or any of the following: a circulating water pump assembly or a refrigerant circulation assembly. No further restrictions are imposed here.

[0038] In some embodiments, see back Figure 1 The heat exchange assembly 120 includes a heat exchange body 121. The heat exchange body 121 is thermally connected to the outer wall of the cabinet 110. The heat exchange body 121 is provided with a heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a. The heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a is used for the flow of the heat exchange medium.

[0039] Thus, through the arrangement of the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a, the cooling or heating capacity of the heat exchange medium in the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a exchanges heat with the outer wall of the cabinet 110, thereby increasing the heat dissipation rate and facilitating the cooling or heating rate of the cabinet 110, thus ensuring the moisture retention performance of the cabinet 110. Furthermore, unlike cooling or heating the cabinet 110 through air-cooled or air-heated components, the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a facilitates the uniform distribution of the heat exchange medium, thereby improving the uniformity of heat exchange and resulting in a more uniform distribution of tobacco humidity within the tobacco storage cavity 110a.

[0040] In one embodiment, see back Figure 1 The heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a is provided with a through hole 121b, which is used to communicate with the input component 200 to receive the heat exchange medium. The input component 200 can be a pump, compressor, or water pipe, etc., used to deliver the heat exchange medium from the input end of the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a. Correspondingly, when it is necessary to empty the heat exchange medium in the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a, a negative pressure component such as a negative pressure pump or vacuum device can be connected to the through hole 121b to allow the heat exchange medium to be discharged from the through hole 121b. Thus, the through hole 121b facilitates the input and discharge of the heat exchange medium, allowing the amount of heat exchange medium to be adjusted according to different usage scenarios, thereby meeting different temperature requirements and different humidity requirements, enriching the application scenarios of the wire storage cabinet 100.

[0041] In one example, the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a is provided with two through holes 121b spaced apart. One of the two through holes 121b is an input end, and the other is an output end. The input end is used to communicate with the input component 200 to receive the heat exchange medium. The output end is used to output the heat exchange medium. The input component 200 can be a pump, compressor, or water pipe, etc., used to transport the heat exchange medium from the input end into the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a to the output end, thus realizing the flow of the heat exchange medium in the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a.

[0042] Thus, by setting the input and output ends, the heat exchange medium in the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a can flow, thereby enabling the heat exchange medium to be replaced and realizing the dynamic heat exchange process. This is beneficial to improving the heat exchange efficiency of the cabinet 110 and ensuring the humidity stability in the wire storage cavity 110a.

[0043] It should be noted that the heat exchange body 121 mentioned above can be in the form of a plate, a cavity, or a frame, etc., and can be selected according to different production needs. No further restrictions are made here.

[0044] In one embodiment, see back Figure 1 The heat exchanger body 121 is provided with an installation cavity, and the cabinet 110 is disposed in the installation cavity. That is, the heat exchanger body 121 is fitted onto the outer wall of the cabinet 110. In this way, by placing the heat exchanger body 121 in the installation cavity, the outer wall of the cabinet 110 can receive the cold or heat from the heat exchanger body 121, thereby achieving uniform heat exchange in the wire storage cavity 110a and improving the uniformity of humidity distribution in the wire storage cavity 110a.

[0045] Further, optionally, the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a is disposed between the inner wall of the mounting cavity and the outer wall of the cabinet 110. Thus, by disposing the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a between the inner wall of the mounting cavity and the outer wall of the cabinet 110, the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a can also be disposed along the outer wall of the cabinet 110. This allows the heat exchange medium to provide cooling or heating to the circumferential direction of the outer wall of the cabinet 110, which is beneficial for achieving uniform heat exchange within the wire storage cavity 110a, further improving the uniformity of humidity distribution in the wire storage cavity 110a, and optimizing the temperature stability and moisture retention effect of the wire storage cabinet 100.

[0046] It should be noted that the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a can be installed by setting it in the sandwich member, and then setting the sandwich member between the inner wall of the installation cavity and the outer wall of the cabinet 110, or by other installation methods.

[0047] In one example, see back Figure 1 The outer walls of the heat exchanger body 121 and the cabinet 110 are spaced apart to form a heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a. Thus, by directly forming the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a through the spaced-apart arrangement of the outer walls of the heat exchanger body 121 and the cabinet 110, it is only necessary to introduce the heat exchange medium between the outer walls of the heat exchanger body 121 and the cabinet 110, eliminating the need for additional mounting components such as interlayers to form the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a, thereby reducing costs.

[0048] Optionally, in one embodiment, the heat exchange assembly 120 further includes an insulation layer 122. The insulation layer 122 is disposed on the side of the heat exchange body 121 away from the cabinet 110.

[0049] Thus, the insulation layer 122 effectively isolates the heat exchange between the external environment and the heat exchange body 121, allowing the heat exchange medium to more fully absorb heat from the outer wall of the cabinet 110 when circulating within the heat exchange medium flow cavity 121a, reducing heat loss from the heat exchange body 121 and thereby improving the heat exchange effect. Furthermore, due to the low thermal conductivity of the insulation layer 122, it helps to slow down the rate of temperature rise of the heat exchange body 121 itself, extending the service life of the heat exchange medium within the effective temperature range, further enhancing the moisture retention and heat preservation performance of the wire storage cabinet 100.

[0050] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, the wire storage cabinet 100 also includes a cover body 130, which is rotatably connected to the cabinet body 110, so that the cover body 130 can rotate and switch between being close to and away from the feed inlet, and switch between covering the feed inlet and opening the feed inlet.

[0051] Thus, when it is necessary to add or remove material from the tobacco storage cavity 110a, the cover body 130 can be rotated to remove it from the material inlet, thereby opening the material inlet for easy addition or removal. When no operation is required in the tobacco storage cavity 110a, the cover body 130 can be rotated to bring it close to and cover the material inlet, maintaining the closed state of the tobacco storage cavity 110a and preventing the tobacco shreds inside from coming into contact with the external environment, which could lead to a decline in the quality of the tobacco shreds.

[0052] To improve the sealing performance of the wire storage cavity 110a, in one embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the tobacco storage cabinet 100 also includes a sealing element 140, which is connected to the periphery of the feed inlet or the cover body 130. When the cover body 130 covers the feed inlet, at least a portion of the sealing element 140 is sandwiched between the periphery of the feed inlet and the cover body 130. Thus, by providing the sealing element 140, when the cover body 130 covers the feed inlet, the sealing element 140 can provide an additional sealing effect between the cover body 130 and the periphery of the feed inlet, effectively preventing external air, moisture, or other impurities from entering the tobacco storage cavity 110a through the feed inlet, further ensuring the quality of the tobacco shreds in the tobacco storage cavity 110a.

[0053] Furthermore, in one example, the seal 140 may be made of an elastic material, such as rubber or silicone, to ensure a good sealing contact between the cover body 130 and the periphery of the feed port.

[0054] In another example, see back Figure 3 In the above embodiments, the heat insulation layer 122 can also be disposed on the side of the cover body 130 away from the sealing element 140 to improve the heat insulation effect and improve the heat insulation and moisture retention effect of the tobacco storage cabinet 100 on the tobacco.

[0055] It should be noted that the way the cover body 130 and the cabinet 110 are rotatably connected in the above embodiments can be, but is not limited to, through a rotating shaft structure to achieve the rotatable connection between the two, or through a connecting rod structure, guide rail structure, etc., without further limitation here.

[0056] In some embodiments, see back Figure 2 The wire storage cabinet 100 also includes an arc-shaped guide rail 150. The arc-shaped guide rail 150 is connected to the cabinet body 110. The arc-shaped guide rail 150 has an arc-shaped slide rail portion 151, and the cover body 130 has a sliding engagement portion. One of the arc-shaped slide rail portion 151 and the sliding engagement portion is a protrusion 131, and the other is a recess. The protrusion 131 and the recess are in a limiting sliding engagement, allowing the sliding engagement portion to rotate relative to the arc-shaped slide rail portion 151.

[0057] It is understandable that the arc-shaped concave portion is designed so that when the protrusion 131 slides and is limited by the concave portion, the sliding part can have an arc-shaped movement trajectory on the arc-shaped slide rail 151, thereby allowing the cover body 130 to rotate relative to the arc-shaped guide rail 150. The angle of rotation is related to the central angle corresponding to the arc length of the arc-shaped guide rail 150.

[0058] Thus, unlike the rotation of the cover body 130 relative to the cabinet 110 achieved through a pivot structure or similar design, the protrusion 131 and the arc-shaped recess are in a limiting sliding fit. On the one hand, relative rotation can be achieved; on the other hand, the guiding fit between the protrusion 131 and the recess can improve the rotational stability of the cover body 130 relative to the arc-shaped guide rail 150, making the switching process between opening and closing the cover body 130 more stable.

[0059] Furthermore, by providing an arc-shaped slide rail portion 151 on the arc-shaped guide rail 150, it is no longer necessary to provide an arc-shaped sliding mating portion on the cover body 130. This reduces the range of sliding mating portions on the cover body 130, which helps to reduce the weight of the cover body 130 and makes the rotation process of the cover body 130 more effortless.

[0060] In one example, the curved slide rail portion 151 is a concave portion, and the sliding mating portion is a protrusion 131. Thus, the concave design of the curved slide rail portion 151 reduces the material consumption of the curved slide rail portion 151, thereby reducing the weight of the cabinet 110.

[0061] Optionally, to further improve the closing stability of the cover body 130, in one embodiment, one of the cover body 130 and the cabinet 110 is provided with a locking part and the other with a mating part. The locking part and the mating part are detachably connected. Specifically, when the cover body 130 covers the feed inlet, the locking part and the mating part are connected. When the cover body 130 is located away from the feed inlet, the locking part and the mating part are separated.

[0062] That is, when the cover body 130 covers the material inlet, the connection effect between the cover body 130 and the cabinet 110 can be improved by the relative fixation of the locking part and the mating part, thereby ensuring the stability of the cover body 130 covering the material inlet, preventing the entry of external foreign objects, and preventing the loss of internal moisture.

[0063] The locking part and the mating part can be a mating structure of a snap-fit ​​recess and a snap-fit ​​protrusion, or a mating structure of a magnetic attraction part and a magnetic attraction mating part, etc., without too many restrictions.

[0064] To improve the automation level of the fiber storage process, in some embodiments, such as Figure 4As shown, the wire cabinet also includes a drive assembly 160. The drive assembly 160 includes a drive motor 161, a gear 162, and a meshing member 163. The meshing member 163 is in contact with the cover body 130. The meshing member 163 has teeth that mesh with the gear 162. The drive motor 161 is connected to the gear 162 to drive the gear 162 to rotate, causing the gear 162 to move the meshing member 163 in a direction closer to or further away from the cover body 130, thus allowing the meshing member 163 to rotate the cover body 130 between near and far from the feed inlet. The rotation axis of the gear 162 intersects with the extension direction of the teeth.

[0065] Thus, by setting the drive component 160, the drive unit can drive the gear 162 to rotate, so that the gear 162 can rotate relative to the teeth, thereby allowing the teeth to extend and retract in the direction of approaching or moving away from the cover body 130. The rotational motion of the gear 162 is converted into the linear extension and retraction motion of the meshing part 163. There is no need to manually open the cover body 130; only the forward and reverse rotation of the drive motor 161 needs to be switched, which improves the automation level of the wire storage process.

[0066] Furthermore, the rotation axis of the gear 162 is arranged to intersect with the extension direction of the teeth, and the gear 162 and the meshing member 163 are arranged in a non-planar transmission configuration, thereby avoiding the increase in the volume occupied in a single direction when the coplanar transmission configuration is used, which is conducive to saving space.

[0067] According to another aspect of this application, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, this application provides a tobacco storage system 10, including the tobacco storage cabinet 100 and the feeding component 300 as described in the above embodiment. The feeding component 300 is capable of reciprocating along a first direction X, and can feed tobacco shreds from the feed inlet into the tobacco storage cavity 110a. Specifically, when the feeding component 300 reciprocates in the first direction X, it can move along directions close to and away from the feed inlet, and then feed tobacco shreds from the feed inlet into the tobacco storage cavity 110a, thus completing the placement of tobacco shreds in the tobacco storage cavity 110a. In this way, the tobacco storage cabinet 100 ensures stable tobacco storage temperature in the tobacco storage system 10 and improves the moisture retention performance of the tobacco storage system 10.

[0068] In one embodiment, the cabinet 110 is provided with multiple material inlets, which are arranged sequentially at intervals along the first direction X.

[0069] Thus, by setting multiple feeding ports, it is convenient for tobacco to enter the tobacco storage chamber 110a from the outside of the cabinet 110, and the tobacco can be evenly distributed in the tobacco storage chamber 110a, avoiding the accumulation of tobacco in a certain area, thereby improving the tobacco storage effect.

[0070] In another embodiment, the feed inlet extends along a first direction X to form a feed channel.

[0071] Thus, the feeding port extends along the first direction X to form a feeding groove, which can further increase the smoothness of tobacco entering the tobacco storage cavity 110a from the feeding port, reduce the blockage of tobacco at the feeding port, and improve the feeding efficiency. Furthermore, the extension of the feeding port also allows the tobacco to be more evenly distributed in the tobacco storage cavity 110a, further improving the tobacco storage effect.

[0072] It should be noted that the feeding component 300 can be a reciprocating feeding component, a vibrating feeding component, etc., and there are no further restrictions here.

[0073] In one implementation, such as Figure 4 As shown, the feeding assembly 300 includes a first motor 310, a second motor 320, a telescopic member 330, a cloth-feeding member 340, and a rotating member 350. The cloth-feeding member 340 has a loading chamber for loading tobacco shreds. The cloth-feeding member 340 also has a discharge port communicating with the loading chamber. The first motor 310 is driven by the telescopic member 330, enabling the telescopic member 330 to drive the cloth-feeding port to reciprocate along a first direction X. The second motor 320 is driven by the rotating member 350, allowing the rotating member 350 to be rotatably mounted in the loading chamber.

[0074] Specifically, the feeding process of the feeding component 300 is as follows: the first motor 310 drives the telescopic component 330 to move to the position of the feeding port, and then the second motor 320 drives the rotating component 350 to rotate, so that the rotating component 350 can stir the tobacco in the feeding chamber, thereby realizing the tobacco from the discharge port into the feeding port.

[0075] In another embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the wire storage system 10 is equipped with multiple feeding components 300. Each feeding component 300 corresponds to one of multiple feed inlets. Each feeding component 300 includes a third motor, a driving wheel 360, a driven wheel 370, and a drive belt 380. The driving wheel 360 and the driven wheel 370 are spaced apart, and the drive belt 380 is wound between the driving wheel 360 and the driven wheel 370. The third motor is connected to the driving wheel 360 to drive its rotation. The driven wheel 370 is positioned above the feed inlet.

[0076] Specifically, the feeding process of the feeding component 300 is as follows: the third motor drives the drive wheel 360 to rotate, and the drive wheel 360 drives the driven wheel 370 to rotate through the transmission belt 380. The transmission belt 380 can be loaded with tobacco. When the tobacco on the transmission belt 380 moves to the position of the driven wheel 370, the tobacco will continue to move and fall to the feed inlet, completing the process of the tobacco entering the tobacco storage cabinet 100.

[0077] In the description of this application, it should be understood that if terms such as "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" appear, these terms indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and 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, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0078] Furthermore, where the terms "first" and "second" appear, these terms are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this application, where the term "multiple" appears, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0079] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0080] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the use of descriptions such as "above" or "below" the second feature indicates that the first and second features are in direct contact, or indirect contact via an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. Similarly, "below," "under," and "below" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than or equal to the second feature.

[0081] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. If an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. If so, the terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0082] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0083] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
