Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tobacco curing barn technology, specifically a simple tobacco lifting machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the tobacco industry chain, the curing of fresh tobacco leaves is an indispensable production link. With the advancement of technology, heat pump curing barns have gradually been adopted as the main curing facilities in various regions. However, the vast majority of curing barns still rely on manual operation for the tobacco loading process, which has the following drawbacks: Currently, tobacco curing barns have different height requirements when loading tobacco, meaning the tobacco leaves need to be at different heights to improve the space utilization of the curing barn. This requires operators to constantly change positions and climb heights during loading, making the physical labor quite heavy.

[0003] Therefore, we propose a simple tobacco leaf elevator to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
