Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of reconstituted tobacco production technology, and in particular to a sampling device for reconstituted tobacco flavoring. Background Technology

[0002] Reconstituted tobacco is mainly made from tobacco dust, shredded tobacco leaves, tobacco stems, or low-grade tobacco leaves with additives. It is also known as tobacco sheet, reconstituted tobacco, or homogenized tobacco. Its physicochemical properties are similar to those of tobacco leaves, and it can be used as a substitute for tobacco leaves as a raw material for tobacco products. The manufacture of reconstituted tobacco began in the 1950s and is now widely used. Products used as wrappers for cigars are rolled into discs, while those used as raw materials for cigarettes are cut into slices or shreds. The manufacture and application of reconstituted tobacco can improve the utilization rate of tobacco leaf raw materials and has advantages such as low cost and reduced tar and harmful components in tobacco smoke.

[0003] Currently, flavorings used in reconstituted tobacco are typically stored in narrow-mouthed containers. Sampling requires shaking the container thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the liquid. However, the weight of the container and the flavorings makes this shaking difficult, and the narrow opening also hinders the insertion of the sampling device, resulting in only the upper layer of liquid being sampled. Therefore, stratified sampling analysis is practically impossible. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sampling device for reconstituted tobacco flavoring. In use, the device's stirring rod is inserted into the flavoring container, and a driving component drives the stirring rod to ensure uniform mixing of the flavoring within the container, effectively solving the problem of sampling uniformity. When layered sampling is required, multiple stirring rods are connected, allowing the sampling device to be inserted into the desired sampling location within the flavoring container. In this case, layered sampling can be achieved without activating the driving component.

[0027] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0028] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to 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 utility model.

[0029] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the stated features. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified. Furthermore, the terms "installed," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly; for example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; 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 connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, this utility model provides a sampling device for reconstituted tobacco flavoring, which includes: a shell 2, a stirring assembly, and a sampling assembly. The shell 2 is connected to the stirring assembly. The stirring assembly includes a driving component and a stirring rod 4. The driving component is connected to the stirring rod 4. The sampling assembly is installed inside the stirring rod 4. Several stirring rods 4 are provided, and the several stirring rods 4 are detachably connected. The sampling assembly includes a pull rod 1 and a piston 3. The pull rod 1 is connected to the piston 3.

[0031] When using the reconstituted tobacco flavoring sampling device of this utility model, the stirrer rod 4 of the sampling device is inserted into the flavoring barrel, and the stirrer rod 4 is driven by the driving component to make the flavoring in the flavoring barrel evenly mixed, which can effectively solve the problem of sampling uniformity.

[0032] When stratified sampling is required, by connecting multiple stirrer rods 4, the sampling device can be extended into the fragrance barrel to the location where sampling is required. At this time, stratified sampling can be achieved without turning on the drive component.

[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, the driving component includes a rocker arm 7, a longitudinal gear 6, and a transverse gear 5. The rocker arm 7 is connected to the longitudinal gear 6, the longitudinal gear 6 is connected to the transverse gear 5, and the transverse gear 5 is mounted on the stirrer rod 4.

[0034] The mixing assembly also includes stirrer blades 8, which are mounted on the stirrer rod 4. Several stirrer blades 8 are provided. Specifically, in this embodiment, the stirrer blades 8 can be individually detached. When stratified sampling is required, it is not necessary to install the stirrer blades 8.

[0035] The outer casing 2 is connected to the upper part of the stirrer rod 4. Both the longitudinal gear 6 and the transverse gear 5 are installed inside the outer casing 2.

[0036] The joystick 7 extends through one side of the outer casing 2. (As shown) Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, part of the rocker arm 7 is inside the housing 2 and connected to the gear, while the other part of the rocker arm 7 is outside the housing 2. In use, rotating the rocker arm 7 drives the horizontal gear 5 and the vertical gear 6 to work together, thereby driving the stirrer rod 4, which is equipped with blades, to rotate.

[0037] The diameter of piston 3 is the same as the inner diameter of stirrer rod 4. Both the pull rod 1 and the stirrer rod 4 are cylindrical. The pull rod 1 is a graduated pull rod. Specifically, in this embodiment, the graduated pull rod 1 is connected to piston 3 and installed inside stirrer rod 4. Pulling the graduated pull rod 1 causes piston 3 to move upward, drawing in liquid; pushing the pull rod 1 causes piston 3 to move downward, discharging liquid into the sampling bottle. Both the graduated pull rod 1 and the stirrer rod 4 pull rod 1 are cylindrical. The graduated volume on the pull rod 1 is determined by the inner diameter of stirrer rod 4. For stirrer rod 4 with an inner diameter of R, the height of 1 mL of liquid is 1 / πR. 2 (R is in centimeters). The dimensions of the agitator blade 8 and the inner diameter, length, and scale settings of the agitator rod 4 can all be customized as needed.

[0038] Several stirring rods 4 are detachably connected. Specifically, in this embodiment, there are multiple stirring rods 4 that can be spliced ​​together. The multiple stirring rods 4 are connected by threads, so they can be adjusted according to the height of the fragrance container to ensure that the liquid at the bottom can also be stirred.

[0039] Usage process:

[0040] 1. When uniform sampling is required

[0041] The lower part of the sampling device for the reconstituted tobacco flavoring is inserted into the flavoring container. Rotating the rocker arm 7 drives the horizontal gear 5 and the vertical gear 6 to work together, thereby rotating the agitator rod 4 equipped with blades. The agitator rod 4 has multiple sections that can be joined together, allowing adjustment according to the height of the flavoring container to ensure that the liquid at the bottom is also agitated. Pulling the graduated lever 1 moves the piston 3 upwards to draw in the liquid, while pushing the lever 1 downwards moves the piston 3 to discharge the liquid into the sampling bottle.

[0042] 2. When stratified sampling is required

[0043] As needed, the stirrer rod 4 is spliced ​​so that when the lower part of the reconstituted tobacco flavoring sampling device extends into the flavoring tank, it can just be able to sample the part that needs to be sampled.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
