A method of reducing the amount of matrix-bound NNK in cured tobacco plant material is provided comprising reducing the amount of lignin in the cured tobacco plant material. A further method of reducing the formation of matrix-bound NNK during the curing of tobacco plant material is described comprising reducing the amount of lignin therein prior to curing.

A method for producing a vaporisable material comprising plant fibres for use in a vapour generating device which generates a vapour by heating the vaporisable material is disclosed. The method comprises reducing the particle size of the plant fibres to less than 1.5 mm and mixing plant fibres of at least two ranges of particle size. The invention also relates to vaporisable material for use in a vapour generating device obtainable by the method.

The invention relates to a method and a plant for the treatment of tobacco leaves for the production of cut tobacco for smokable articles, in which stems or winnowings, on the one hand, and the lamina material of the tobacco leaves, on the other, are conditioned separately from each other. The conditioned, non-rolled stems are precut and the conditioned winnowings are rolled and individually respectively or also jointly blended with the conditioned and uncut lamina material; the resulting blend is then cut and dried.

A shredded tobacco feeding apparatus for a cigarette making machine is disclosed. It includes a storage reservoir for temporarily storing shredded tobacco, a device for feeding a constant quantity of shredded tobacco from the reservoir continuously, a device for classifying the shredded tobacco based on a required grain length, and a device for cutting such classified shredded tobacco with a long grain length, such cut shredded tobacco being joined again with the other classified short shredded tobacco for feeding to a shredded tobacco dispersing device.

A cutting die assembly for cigar wrappers is manufactured by rigidly interconnecting a knife blade unit and a die assembly on a common carrier. The die assembly has an opening of particular shape bounded by a generally planar margin over which tobacco leaf may be draped. The knife unit is formed by shaping knife blade strip into a closed form to fit just inside the shaped margin of the die assembly with the knife edge just above same. The shaped knife blade strip is filled with a filling body interiorally to a height substantially below the cutting edge and is internally rigidified thereby. A suction air chamber is defined by the rigidly interconnected units and is bounded by the common carrier, the die assembly and the outer surface of the knife blade strip. Openings are provided through the margin of the die assembly to the suction air chamber to hold the draped tobacco leaf and stretch it over the knife edge. An expelling plunger is provided within the shaped knife blade strip and suction air passages are formed through the filling body and the plunger to hold tobacco leaf firmly against the cutting edge. The knife blade strip may take the form of plural strips interconnected to form adjacent die cavities.

Disclosed is a method and apparatus for processing baled tobacco leaves to separate the lamina portions of the leaves from the stem portions. The bale is cut symmetrically, crosswise to its length, into three or preferably five separate sections, of different characteristic types. A center section is cut from the middle of the bale. On each side of the center section a second section is cut; and two end sections are preferably cut, one at each end of the bale. The different types of sections have different lamina-to-stem ratios, and are processed differently. The second sections are coarsely threshed, to dislodge the larger lamina portions of the leaves from the stem portions therein, and the coarsely threshed material is separated into a first light fraction (comprising mostly lamina) and a first heavy fraction (enriched in stem content). The center section can be combined with the light fraction and can be dried and packed without the necessity of further threshing. If end sections are cut, the first heavy fraction is combined with them and is more finely threshed, to dislodge remaining lamina portions from the stem portions therein.
摘要:
Apparatus and method are disclosed for producing a compact strand of tobacco leaves in which the stems of the leaves are oriented predominantly longitudinally of the strand. Tobacco leaves distributed onto a horizontal conveyor in loose, randomly distributed fashion are subjected to progressive lateral crowding as they pass into a narrow channel section. The crowding effects displacement and/or deformation of leaves to achieve the desired orientation and the formation of the compacted strand. The crowding effect and the narrow channel section are afforded by upstanding endless conveyor flight portions overlying the horizontal conveyor and driven in the same direction and substantially the same speed as the horizontal conveyor.

摘要:
A smoking material container system has a housing which has an interior container which is slidably positionable into a surrounding sleeve. A folding funnel can be used to place smoking material into rolled cigarette papers. A grating component may also be included to allow the user to grate course smoking material into grated particles which are easier to position within the cigarette papers.
