[0019] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model and the prior art, the specific implementation methods of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the accompanying drawings described below are only some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings and other implementation methods can be obtained based on these drawings without any creative effort. Furthermore, the design orientation only indicates the relative positional relationship between the components, not the absolute positional relationship.

[0020] This utility model embodiment provides a tobacco flavoring and fragrance mixing device. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 It mainly includes a mixing tank 1, a mixing rod 2, and a mixing unit 3.

[0021] In this embodiment of the application, the tobacco flavoring and fragrance mixing device includes a mixing tank 1, a mixing rod 2, and a mixing unit 3. The mixing rod 2 is disposed inside the mixing tank 1, and the center line of the mixing rod 2 (i.e., Figure 3 The X-ray in the image) and the center line of the mixing tank 1 (i.e. Figure 2 The angle formed by the Z-line in the image is an acute angle. The stirring unit 3 is arranged on the stirring rod 2, which is connected to the motor shaft of the drive motor. When the drive motor starts, it drives the stirring plate rod to rotate around the center line of the stirring rod 2. During the rotation of the stirring rod 2, the stirring plate unit rotates to stir the material in the stirring tank 1. This application further expands the stirring coverage area by setting an inclined stirring rod 2 in the stirring tank 1, eliminating stirring dead corners, reducing material deposition at the edges, shortening the stirring time, and reducing energy loss and component damage caused by local concentration of shear force, thereby improving stirring efficiency and stirring effect.

[0022] Preferably, the angle between the centerline of the stirring rod 2 and the centerline of the stirring tank 1 is 10°.

[0023] In one possible implementation, the stirring unit 3 includes components along the length direction of the stirring rod 2 (i.e., ...). Figure 3 The first agitator 31 and the second agitator 32 are arranged side by side along the X-axis. The first agitator 31 is used to push the material in the mixing tank 1 (the material can be fragrance, flavoring, etc. in the mixing tank) to the position of the second agitator 32, and the second agitator 32 is used to shear the material. The two agitators arranged side by side in this application can effectively eliminate the mixing dead zone, so that the material in the entire mixing tank 1 can be fully sheared and circulated, thereby improving the mixing efficiency and mixing effect.

[0024] In one possible implementation, the first stirring member 31 includes a plurality of first stirring plates arranged circumferentially along the center line of the stirring rod 2. Specifically, three first stirring plates are provided.

[0025] In one possible implementation, the second stirring member 32 includes a plurality of second stirring plates arranged circumferentially along the center line of the stirring rod 2. Specifically, there are two second stirring plates.

[0026] Furthermore, the width direction of the second stirring plate (i.e., Figure 3 The angle between the Y-axis direction and the rotation direction of the second stirring plate is 40° to improve the stirring effect of the flavoring and fragrance.

[0027] In one possible implementation, the mixing tank 1 includes a first mixing chamber 11 and a second mixing chamber 12 that are connected to each other. The mixing tank 1 is provided with a feeding port 13 on the side away from the second mixing chamber 12 along the length direction of the mixing rod 2, and a discharge port is provided on the side away from the first mixing plate chamber along the length direction of the mixing rod 2.

[0028] Furthermore, the second stirring chamber 12 is conical, and a fixing seat 21 is provided on the side of the stirring rod 2 away from the first stirring chamber 11 along the length direction of the stirring rod 2. A plurality of fixing blocks 22 are arranged in a circular pattern around the fixing seat 21. The fixing blocks 22 are arranged inside the second stirring chamber 12. In this way, when the fixing blocks 22 support the stirring rod 2, the force exerted by the conical fixing blocks 22 inside the second stirring chamber 1 on the inner wall of the stirring tank 1 will be decomposed, the resultant force on the inner wall of the stirring tank 1 will be reduced, and the structural strength of the entire tobacco flavoring and fragrance stirring device will be improved.

[0029] In one possible implementation, along the length of the stirring rod 2, the distance between the arrangement position of the first stirring element 31 and the feeding port 13 is 40% to 42% of the length of the first stirring element 31.

[0030] In one possible implementation, along the length of the stirring rod 2, the ratio of the distance between the arrangement positions of the second stirring element 32 and the first stirring element 31 to the distance between the arrangement positions of the first stirring element 31 and the feeding port 13 is greater than 1.07, and the ratio is less than 1.17. This ensures that the first stirring element 31 and the second stirring element 32 do not rub against the inner wall of the mixing tank 1 during rotation.

[0031] In one possible implementation, a conductivity sensor 4 is provided on the inner wall of the mixing tank 1. The conductivity sensor 4 is electrically connected to an operating terminal (personal computer or mobile device). The conductivity sensor 4 sends the detected conductivity to the operating terminal in the form of an electrical signal, so that the operator can take corresponding measures to deal with the mixing status in the mixing tank 1.
