When the loosening device for the airflow cut-tobacco drier is used, the falling form of the cut tobacco passing through the rotating loosening roller is changed through the rake nails 32 with different lengths in the four rake nail groups arranged on the loosening roller, so that the cut tobacco is changed from the continuous falling in a straight line shape in the prior art into the continuous falling in an irregular V-shaped continuous connection manner and enters the turbulent flow pipe of the airflow cut-tobacco drier, the cut tobacco can be better ensured to exist on any horizontal line, the intermittent falling phenomenon of the cut tobacco is better avoided, and the discharging at the discharging port is more uniform and continuous.
In an embodiment of the present invention, each of the rake nails 32 in the rake nail set is arranged in a straight line.
Specifically, the rake nails 32 in two adjacent rake nail groups are staggered, and the rake nails in two opposite rake nail groups are oppositely arranged, so that the tobacco leaves can be loosened more uniformly.
In another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, each of the rake nails 32 in the rake nail set is spirally distributed.
Preferably, the difference between the lengths of two adjacent braks in the brak group is the same.
Specifically, the loosening roller 31 is rotatably connected with the first end cover and the second end cover through a bearing 51, so that the rotatable connection between the loosening roller and the first end cover is conveniently realized. It is understood that the bearing housing 52 may be disposed at the roller through holes of the first and second end caps, and the bearing may be disposed on the bearing housing 52.
In order to make the sealing between the loosening roller 31 and the first and second end caps good, a sealing device 61 is provided between the loosening roller and the first end cap. It can be understood that the sealing device 61 may use teflon packing as sealing packing, and the sealing between the first end cover, the second end cover and the loosening roller is realized through a compression mode.
Specifically, the driving mechanism includes a motor 41, a belt pulley 43, and a triangular belt 42, the motor is disposed on the outer wall of the housing, the belt pulley 43 is disposed on the first end, and an output shaft of the motor is connected to the belt pulley 43 through the triangular belt.
