Description

Technical Field

[0001] This patent belongs to the field of tobacco re-drying technology, specifically relating to a sieving device for tobacco re-drying. Background Technology

[0002] Tobacco agriculture is a specialized agricultural production activity centered around tobacco as an economic crop. It focuses on cultivating and harvesting tobacco leaves that meet industrial processing standards and is the source link of the tobacco industry chain. Its production process is highly specialized, requiring key steps such as variety selection, seedling cultivation, field transplanting, field management, mature harvesting, and processing. It also has strict requirements for climate and soil conditions.

[0003] Tobacco re-drying refers to the process of baking pre-processed tobacco leaves again, primarily to adjust the moisture content for safe storage. A sieving device for tobacco re-drying is a commonly used device. For example, Chinese patent document CN212468827U discloses a sieving device for tobacco re-drying. Through a motor, cam, return spring, placement tray, and screen on the vehicle body, the device can more quickly and effectively sieve tobacco. The motor drives the cam to rotate, causing the placement tray to move up and down, thus turning the tobacco within the tray and achieving the sieving purpose. This effectively avoids clogging of the screen holes that occurs in traditional sieving processes, significantly reducing the workload for operators and greatly minimizing downtime for cleaning. However, it still has the following drawbacks: When workers use the tobacco re-drying screening device to screen tobacco, the device may be unable to meet the continuous and large-scale screening needs in tobacco re-drying production, resulting in reduced screening efficiency and accuracy; at the same time, when the tobacco re-drying screening device is used for screening tobacco for a long time, a humid environment may occur, causing the tobacco to become moldy, clump, or have excessive moisture, which will affect the continuous tobacco re-drying, storage, and final product quality.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new screening device for tobacco re-drying in order to solve the problems of existing screening devices for tobacco re-drying being unable to screen continuously and in large quantities, and being prone to mold, clumping or excessive moisture in tobacco due to humid environments during long-term use. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this patent is to provide a sieving device for tobacco re-drying, so as to realize continuous and large-scale sieving of tobacco.

[0096] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this patent clearer, the embodiments of this patent will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the experimental methods described in the embodiments of this patent are conventional methods, and the materials and reagents used in the following embodiments are commercially available unless otherwise specified.

[0097] like Figure 1As shown, this patent provides a sieving device for tobacco re-drying, including a feeding component 100, an automatic sieving component 200, and a dehumidification component 300; the automatic sieving component 200 is disposed inside the feeding component 100 and is used for automatically sieving tobacco; the dehumidification component 300 is disposed at the lower part of the automatic sieving component 200 and is used to dehumidify the automatically sieving tobacco.

[0098] like Figure 2 As shown, the feeding assembly 100 includes a screening box 110, a feed inlet 120, and a feed inlet cover 130.

[0099] Specifically, the screening box 110 is a hollow cubic structure. The feed inlet 120 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the screening box 110, and the feed inlet cover 130 is installed on the upper part of the feed inlet 120 to keep the interior of the feeding assembly 100 clean when the tobacco re-drying screening device is not in operation. In some other embodiments, the screening box 110 may also be a cuboid, a trapezoid, or other symmetrical regular structure. In other embodiments, the feed inlet 120 may also be detachably connected to the upper part of the screening box 110 for easy removal for cleaning.

[0100] More specifically, the top of the screening box 110 is provided with a first square groove, one side of the screening box 110 is provided with a second square groove, and the front of the screening box 110 is provided with a third square groove.

[0112] Specifically, the transmission component 210 also includes a turntable, which includes a first turntable 214a and a second turntable 214b; a first transmission rod 213a passes through a first through hole 212a to connect the first turntable 214a to the connecting plate 211; a second transmission rod 213b passes through a second through hole 212b to connect the second turntable 214b to the connecting plate 211; the first turntable 214a and the second turntable 214b are connected by a belt so that the first turntable 214a and the second turntable 214b can rotate simultaneously.

[0113] More specifically, the diameter of the second turntable 214b is larger than the diameter of the first turntable 214a, wherein the diameter of the second turntable 214b is 120 mm and the diameter of the first turntable 214a is 80 mm, and the second turntable 214b is provided with a third through hole 215. In some other specific embodiments,

[0115] More specifically, one end of the rotating rod 216 is located at the top of the second turntable 214b, and the two ends of the rotating rod 216 are provided with a fourth through hole 217a and a fifth through hole 217b. The fourth through hole 217a is located at the end near the turntable, and the third transmission rod 218a can pass through the fourth through hole 217a and fix one end of the rotating rod 216 above the second turntable 214b, so that the second turntable 214b drives the rotating rod 216 to rotate when it rotates.

[0116] More specifically, the other end of the rotating rod 216 is located at the top of the screen 250. The fifth through hole 217b on the rotating rod 216 is located near the end of the screen 250. The fourth transmission rod 218b can pass through the fifth through hole 217b and fix the other end of the rotating rod 216 above the screen 250, so that when the second turntable 214b rotates, it drives the rotating rod 216 to rotate. At the same time, the rotating rod 216 drives the screen 250 to reciprocate along the axis of the slide frame 230 via the slider 240.

[0117] Specifically, the transmission component 210 also includes a servo motor 219.

[0118] More specifically, the servo motor 219 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the connecting plate 211. The servo motor 219 is an AC servo motor with a power of 0.75~1.50kW, a rated speed of 1400~1500 rpm / min, and an IP54 protection rating. Its output shaft diameter is 14 mm. The servo motor 219 is fixedly mounted on the first transmission rod 213a at the bottom of the connecting plate 211 via the output shaft. By activating the power switch of the servo motor 219, the servo motor 219 drives the first turntable 214a to rotate synchronously via the first transmission rod 213a, and then drives the second turntable 214b to rotate synchronously via the belt. This causes the second transmission rod 213b to make a circular motion around the center of the second turntable 214b, and the rotation of the second turntable 214b drives the rotating rod 216 to rotate. The rotating rod 216 converts the circular motion of the second turntable 214b into a pushing and pulling action on the screen 250. That is, the rotation of the rotating rod 216 causes the screen 250 connected to the rotating rod 216 to reciprocate along the axial direction of the slide frame 230 via the slider 240, thereby realizing the automatic screening of tobacco materials on the screen 250 of the automatic screening component 200.

[0119] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the dehumidification component 300 is installed in the third-party tank of the screening box 110 to receive the screened tobacco material and dehumidify the screened tobacco material to keep it dry.

[0120] Specifically, the dehumidification component 300 includes a pull-out component 310 and a dehumidification box 320; the pull-out component 310 is a hollow internal structure used to hold tobacco material after being screened by the automatic screening component; the dehumidification box 320 is disposed on the inner wall of the pull-out component 310 and is used to dry the screened tobacco material and absorb excess moisture.

[0121] More specifically, the front of the pull-out component 310 is fixedly connected with a handle, and by pulling the handle, the pull-out component 310 can be pushed and pulled in the third slot of the screening box 110.

[0122] Specifically, the dehumidifier box 320 includes a box body 321, which is rectangular in shape. The top of the box body 321 has a first opening, and the front has a second opening.

[0123] More specifically, a strainer cover 322, a dehumidifying bag 323, and a strainer plate 324 are detachably provided from top to bottom inside the first opening of the box body 321.

[0124] More specifically, the mesh cover 322 is detachably mounted on the top of the box body 321 to isolate the dehumidifying bag 323 from the tobacco material entering the pull-out component 310; the dehumidifying bag 323 is detachably mounted between the mesh cover 322 and the strainer plate 324, and the dehumidifying bag 323 uses a composite desiccant of calcium chloride and montmorillonite to absorb excess moisture in the tobacco material.

[0125] More specifically, a receiving cavity 325 is provided in the second opening of the box body 321 to receive the dehumidifying bag 323 and the drain plate 324, and at the same time, to receive the liquid components absorbed by the dehumidifying bag 323.

[0126] Specifically, the bottom of the screening box 110 is also equipped with multiple support components 400, which consist of four components. Support rods are fixedly connected between the four support components to support the screening device for tobacco re-drying and to provide stability.

[0127] More specifically, the bottom of the support 400 is also fixedly connected with an anti-slip pad to prevent the tobacco re-drying screening device from tipping over.

[0128] In summary, the specific working principle of the screening device for tobacco re-drying is as follows:

[0129] (1) The staff first opens the feed port cover 130 and puts the tobacco into the screening box 110 through the feed port 120, so that the tobacco automatically falls onto the screen 250 in the automatic screening component 200.

[0130] (2) By turning on the power switch of the servo motor 219, the servo motor 219 drives the first turntable 214a to rotate synchronously through the first transmission rod 213a, and then drives the second turntable 214b to rotate synchronously through the belt, so that the second transmission rod 213b makes a circular motion around the center of the second turntable 214b, and drives the rotating rod 216 to rotate under the rotation of the second turntable 214b, so that the rotating rod 216 converts the circular motion of the second turntable 214b into a pushing and pulling action on the screen 250. That is, the rotation of the rotating rod 216 causes the screen 250 connected to the rotating rod 216 to reciprocate along the axial direction of the slide frame 230 through the slider 240, thereby realizing the automatic screening of tobacco material on the screen 250 of the automatic screening component 200. This achieves the effect of quickly separating tobacco of different particle sizes, improving screening efficiency and accuracy, thereby reducing the frequency and intensity of manual intervention. It is suitable for the continuous and large-scale screening needs in tobacco re-drying production, reduces the physical exertion and workload of operators, improves the ease of operation, and avoids material accumulation caused by uneven force and slow speed in manual screening, thus improving screening efficiency and accuracy and ensuring the quality of the final product.

[0131] (3) The staff further places the dehumidifying bag 323 on the upper part of the sluice plate 324 inside the dehumidifying box 320, and covers it with the mesh cover 322. When the tobacco re-drying sieving device is working, the humid air in the sieving box 110 enters the dehumidifying box 320 through the mesh cover 322. By disengaging from the dehumidifying bag 323, the dehumidifying bag 323 absorbs the moisture in the air, converts the moisture into liquid water, and drops it into the receiving cavity 325 of the dehumidifying box 320 through the gaps in the sluice plate 324. At the same time, the tobacco material after being sieved by the automatic sieving component 200 enters the pull-out component 310, and undergoes secondary moisture adsorption through the dehumidifying box 320, so that the sieved tobacco material remains dry.

[0132] (4) When the dehumidifying bag 323 is saturated with moisture, the dehumidifying bag can be replaced by pulling open the pull-out part 310 and opening the mesh cover 322. When there is a lot of liquid water in the receiving cavity 325, the receiving cavity 325 can also be directly pulled out, the water in the receiving cavity 325 can be poured out, and it can be cleaned and put back in its original position. This achieves the effect of ensuring that the tobacco is not easily affected by moisture and deterioration during the screening process and ensuring the dryness of the tobacco material. This avoids problems such as mold, clumping or excessive moisture in the tobacco caused by a humid environment. It ensures that the tobacco always maintains the dryness required for re-drying during the screening process, providing a stable guarantee for the subsequent tobacco re-drying, storage and final product quality. In this way, the dehumidifying bag 323 can continuously absorb the moisture in the screening device for tobacco re-drying, avoiding the impact of moisture accumulation on screening efficiency or tobacco quality. It is suitable for the continuous and high-efficiency operation requirements in tobacco re-drying production and reduces the production capacity loss caused by equipment downtime maintenance.

[0133] Therefore, it can be concluded that the tobacco re-drying screening device provided by this patent, through the cooperation of the transmission component and the screening component, can realize the automatic screening of tobacco materials. Furthermore, by cooperating with the screen and the slider, different screen sizes can be replaced according to actual needs to achieve automatic screening of tobacco materials of different particle sizes, improving screening efficiency and accuracy. This reduces the frequency and intensity of manual intervention, making it suitable for the continuous, large-scale screening needs in tobacco re-drying production. It reduces the physical exertion and workload of operators, improves operational convenience, and avoids material accumulation caused by uneven force and slow speed in manual screening, thus improving screening efficiency and accuracy and ensuring the quality of the final product. Moreover, by setting a dehumidification component at the bottom of the automatic screening assembly, the dehumidification component has a detachable dehumidification box and a receiving cavity, allowing for the replacement of the dehumidification bag in the dehumidification box as needed and timely cleaning of accumulated water in the receiving cavity. This ensures that tobacco is not easily affected by moisture and deteriorates during the screening process, and maintains the dryness of the tobacco material. It also prevents problems such as mold, clumping, or excessive moisture caused by a humid environment, ensuring that the tobacco remains dry enough to meet the requirements of re-drying processing throughout the screening process. This provides a stable guarantee for the subsequent re-drying, storage, and final product quality. Furthermore, the dehumidifying bag can continuously absorb moisture from the screening device used for tobacco re-drying, preventing moisture accumulation from affecting screening efficiency or tobacco quality. It is suitable for the continuous and high-efficiency operation requirements in tobacco re-drying production, and reduces production capacity loss caused by equipment downtime for maintenance.
