141 Method and apparatus for making tobacco shreds US9474 1987-02-02 US4799501A 1989-01-24 Reinhard Liebe; Waldemar Wochnowski
Bales or portions of bales of relatively dry compressed tobacco leaf laminae or ribs are dielectrically heated by microwaves, or in an electric high-frequency field, to a temperature not less than 50.degree. C., and are immediately admitted into a shredding machine without previous cooling and/or breaking up. The moisture content of the shreds is raised to between 12 and 13.5% for admission into a cigarette maker, or such moisture content is raised well above the optimum value for further processing in order to increase the filling power of the shreds. The shreds are thereupon dried to reduce their moisture content to between 12 and 13.5% prior to conversion into the filler of a cigarette rod. Two or more different types of shreds can be mixed prior to admission into the cigarette maker. The rate at which the shredding machine discharges a stream of shreds is kept constant by monitoring the density of successive bales or portions of bales and by regulating the speed at which the bales or portions of bales are delivered to the shredding station in dependency on the mass of the respective bales or portions of bales.
142 Sliced bale conditioning US857328 1986-04-30 US4733676A 1988-03-29 Cedric J. Fisk; Edward J. Allen
Apparatus for slicing tobacco bales for conditioning in which the bales are moved from a conveyor (2) onto an adjacent lift device (16) by a first pusher (6), and are then sliced by a slicing blade (20) which is moved horizontally into engagement with the top of the bale and slices the bale while the lift device is dropped slightly to assist in cleaving the bale. The lift is then actuated to raise the bale ready for the next slicing operation, after the previous slice has been ejected by a second pusher (22).
143 System, apparatus, and method for preparing a quantity of tobacco for primary processing US482394 1983-04-06 US4628948A 1986-12-16 Hoyt S. Beard; Marvin G. Woempner
A system, apparatus and method is proposed according to which a tobacco mass is proportioned for primary processing. The system and method provide for a controlled selection handling and proportioning of the tobacco mass, and for conditioning of the tobacco mass before further primary processing. The apparatus provides for conditioning an entire tobacco mass or for selected proportioning of the tobacco mass into smaller predetermined portions prior to conditioning. The system and method allow for blending different types of tobacco masses while utilizing the proportioning apparatus on selected tobacco masses.
144 Process for packaging leaf tobacco US649478 1984-09-11 US4590954A 1986-05-27 Eldon D. Gooden
A method of treating leaf tobacco for storage includes removing the stems from the tobacco leaves, tightly packing the leaves in a container that is non-conductive and while the leaves have a relatively high moisture content; subjecting the packed leaves to a heat treatment by exposing the packed container to an electromagnetic field to heat the leaves to a temperature of approximately 180.degree.; subsequently subjecting the packed leaves to a high vacuum to reduce the moisture content thereof and to reduce the temperature of the leaves; the packed container may also be subjected to a low temperature treatment while being subjected to the vacuum.
145 Tobacco mass treatment method US366434 1982-04-07 US4471790A 1984-09-18 James M. Davis, Jr.; Howard M. Wilkerson
A method for quickly conditioning a mass of tobacco uniformly throughout the mass with steam for the purpose of moisturizing and heating the tobacco evenly throughout.A probe is provided to be inserted within the mass of tobacco for drawing a vacuum while steam is applied to the tobacco mass.A temperature sensor is mounted on the probe to indicate the temperature of inner mass of tobacco.Steam is applied until a desired temperature is sensed at the sensor. The application of steam is continued at that temperature for a period adequate to moisturize and sterilize the tobacco throughout.
146 Apparatus for moisture and heat conditioning compacted tobacco mass US252989 1981-04-10 US4383538A 1983-05-17 Hoyt S. Beard; Daniel G. Williard; Marvin G. Woempner
Dry, compacted masses of tobacco are conditioned by inserting an array of parallel perforated probes into the mass and passing high pressure steam through the probes and probe perforations into the tobacco mass as the probes are inserted and withdrawn. The conditioning apparatus includes a frame supporting a probe array and a ram for moving the array toward and away from a tobacco mass supported by a conveyor. The probes are flexibly mounted to prevent bending, and extend through a stripper plate which is supported from the array by way of a latching mechanism. The stripper plate holds the tobacco mass in place to prevent lifting of the mass upon withdrawal of the probes.
147 Tobacco moistening and opening apparatus US272515 1981-06-11 US4349037A 1982-09-14 Warren A. Brackmann; Stanislav M. Snaidr
A steaming doffer for use in the moistening and opening of tobacco from bales is described. The device includes a plurality of pairs of arms fixedly mounted to a rotatable axle. Each arm member pair is angularly offset from each adjacent pair so that the outer extremities of the arm members lie on helices. A plurality of axially-directed steam-jet forming openings are provided at the outer extremity of each arm member and communicate with an external source of steam through a bore in the axle member which feeds a bore in each arm member.

149 Tobacco moistening method US47138974 1974-05-20 US3924645A 1975-12-09 NEVILLE RICHARD ERNEST GARTSID; GARRETT JOHN A
A process and the apparatus for moistening a body of tobacco with a plurality of elongated cavities, the elongated walls of which are unsupported, by placing the body of tobacco in an enclosed chamber, providing steam to the chamber and suction to one end of at least one cavity, and maintaining the suction and steam until the body of tobacco has received a predetermined sufficient quantity of moisture from the steam.
