본 발명은 잎담배를 단시간내에 숙성시키고 재품담배는 맛을 순화시킬 수 있는 담배처리 방법 및 장치 특히, 원적외선을 이용하여 담배를 처리함을 특징으로 하는 담배처리 방법 및 장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a tobacco processing method and apparatus capable of aging leaf tobacco in a short time and a tobacco product purifying taste, in particular, tobacco processing using far-infrared rays.

종래의 잎담배의 숙성방법은 자연건조방법과 벌크건조실내에서 이루어지는 가열건조방법으로 대별될 수 있는바, 자연숙성방법에 의하면 담배의 숙성이 점진적으로 자연스럽게 이루어져 담배 본래의 향끽미를 잃어 버리지 아니하고서 양질의 숙성이 이루어지는 반면에 2년여에 걸치는 장기 숙성기간을 필요로 하여 담배의 생산비가 고가로 되는 문제점이 있었다.Conventional leaf tobacco aging method can be roughly divided into natural drying method and heat drying method in the bulk drying room. According to the natural aging method, the aging of tobacco is gradually made naturally, without losing the original taste of tobacco. On the other hand, while the maturation takes place, there is a problem that the production cost of cigarettes is expensive because it requires a long-term maturation period of over two years.

반면에, 열풍 가열건조방법에 의한 강제숙성방법에 의하면 숙성시간은 단시간내에 숙성이 이루어지지만 잎담배의 세포가 단시간내에 죽어버려 세포의 호흡 및 신진대사가 빨리 중단되어 담배 본래의 향끽미를 잃어버리게 되는 문제점이 있었다.On the other hand, according to the forced maturation method by the hot air heating and drying method, the ripening time is ripened in a short time, but the cells of the leaf tobacco die in a short time, so that the respiration and metabolism of the cells are stopped quickly and the original taste of the cigarette is lost. There was a problem.

또한, 종래에는 포장된 제품담배의 경우 일반적으로는 아무런 처리없이 그대로 저장, 진열유통되었으며 제품담배 상태로 담배맛을 보다 순화시킬 수 있는 방법은 알려져 있지 않았다.In addition, conventionally, in the case of packaged product cigarettes, they are generally stored and shelfd as they are without any treatment, and there is no known method of purifying tobacco taste in a product cigarette state.

본 발명의 목적은 전술의 종래 담배처리상의 문제점을 해결하기 위한 것으로, 본 발명자는 종래 문제점에 착안하여 연구한 결과 잎담배 또는 제품담배를 원적외선이 다량으로 조사되는 분위기하에 두면 원적외선이 담배의 식물체 세포내에 침투하여 세포의 분자운동을 촉진시켜 잎담배를 단시간내에 향끽미의 변화없이 숙성시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 제품담배인 경우에는 니코틴이나 타르등 인체에 유해한 성분을 분해하여 저감시키므로서 담배맛을 순화시킨다는 사실을 알아내고 이를 토대로 하여 본 발명을 완성하게 된 것이다.An object of the present invention is to solve the above-described problems in the conventional tobacco treatment, the present inventors focus on researching the conventional problems, as a result of the study leaves the tobacco or product tobacco in an atmosphere where far-infrared radiation is irradiated far infrared rays in the plant cells of tobacco It can infiltrate and promote the molecular movement of cells to ripen leaf tobacco in a short time without any change of taste, and in the case of product tobacco, it decomposes and reduces the harmful ingredients such as nicotine and tar to purify the taste of tobacco. The present invention has been completed based on this finding.

이와같은 목적을 가지는 본 발명은 잎담배 또는 제품담배를 원적외선을 방출하는 면상발열체와 바이오 세라믹 코팅부직포, 그리고 화강암 석판을 순차로 적층시켜서 다량의 원적외선이 방출되도록 구성한 원적외선 발생원 사이에 투입하여 담배가 원적외선에 조사되도록 하므로서 소기의 목적을 달성할 수 있도록 한 것인데 이하 본 발명을 첨부된 본 발명 장치의 실시예시도에 의하여 구체적으로 설명하면 다음과 같다.The present invention having the above object is laminated between a leaf heating element or a tobacco product emitting a far infrared ray, a bio-ceramic coated nonwoven fabric, and a granite slab in order to inject a large amount of far infrared rays to emit a large amount of far infrared rays, the cigarette is far-infrared It is intended to achieve the desired object while being investigated, but will be described in detail by the following embodiment of the present invention attached to the present invention as follows.

도면 제1도 내지 제4도에서 보는 바의 본 발명에 의한 담배처리장치는 주벽을 단열재주벽(2)으로 형성하고 일측에 개폐문(3)을 설치하며 내부에 선반(4)을 설치하여서 되는 하나의 처리실(1)형태로 구성되는바, 본 발명에 의하면 처리실(1)의 내주벽 상하부 또는 필요한 경우는 측벽부에 다량의 원적외선이 방출되도록 구성한 원적외선 발생원(5)들이 처리실(1)의 실내측을 향하여 부착 설치된다.1 to 4 is a cigarette treatment apparatus according to the present invention as shown in Figures 1 to 4 is formed by forming the main wall as a heat insulating material main wall (2), the opening and closing door (3) on one side and the shelf (4) installed inside According to the present invention, the far-infrared generating sources 5 configured to emit a large amount of far-infrared rays to the upper and lower portions of the inner circumferential wall of the processing chamber 1 or, if necessary, to the side wall portion, the interior side of the processing chamber 1. Attached toward the installation.

전술의 원적외선 발생원(5)은 처리실(1)의 실내측을 향하여 면상발열체(6)와 바이오 세라믹이 코팅된 부직포(7) 및 화강암 석판(8)이 차례로 적층된 3중 적층제로 구성되는데, 면상발열체(6)는 포지(9)의 표리면에 카아본과 같은 도전성 물질분말과 원적외선을 방출시키는 무기산화물 분말을 혼합도포시킨 도전성 피막층(10)을 형성하고 그 포지(9)를 양측연부에 2개의 전극편(11)(11')을 부착시킨 상태로서 표리 2매의 피복필름(12)(12')내에 수장하여 양전극편(11)(11')에 전류를 도통시키면 평면상의 도전성 피막층(10)을 통하여 전류가 평면전체에 걸쳐서 흐르면서 그 도전성 피막층(10)의 전기 저항열에 의하여 발열이 되면서 피막층에 함께 혼합되어 있는 무기산화물 분말로부터 원적외선이 방출되도록 구성하여서 된 것이다.The far-infrared source 5 described above is composed of a triple lamination agent in which a planar heating element 6, a bio ceramic-coated nonwoven fabric 7 and a granite slab 8 are sequentially stacked toward the interior side of the processing chamber 1, The heating element 6 forms a conductive coating layer 10 mixed with a conductive material powder such as carbon and an inorganic oxide powder that emits far infrared rays on the front and rear surfaces of the forge 9, and the forge 9 is formed at both edges thereof. When the two electrode pieces 11 and 11 'are attached to each other, they are stored in the two front and back coating films 12 and 12' and conduct a current to the positive electrode pieces 11 and 11 '. 10) the current flows through the entire plane and generates heat by the heat of electrical resistance of the conductive coating layer 10, while the far infrared rays are emitted from the inorganic oxide powder mixed together in the coating layer.

또한, 전술의 원적외선 발생원(5)의 하나의 층을 구성하는 바이오 세라믹 코팅부직포(7)는 부직포에 다량의 원적외선을 방출하는 물질인 바이오 세라믹을 코팅하여서 된 것이고, 원적외선 발생원(5)의 마지막층인 화강암 석판(8) 또한 화강암석 자체가 가열에 의하여 다량의 원적외선을 방출하는 물질이므로 이것을 원적외선 발생원(5)에 이용한 것이다.In addition, the bio-ceramic coated nonwoven fabric 7 constituting one layer of the above-described far infrared ray source 5 is obtained by coating a bio-ceramic which is a material that emits a large amount of far infrared rays on a nonwoven fabric, and the last layer of the far infrared ray source 5 Phosphorous granite slab 8 is also used for the far-infrared generator 5 because the granite stone itself emits a large amount of far infrared rays by heating.

따라서, 본 발명에 의하면 전술의 원적외선 발생원(5)은 가열에 의하여 다량의 원적외선을 방출시키는 면상발열체(6)와 바이오 세라믹 코팅부직포(7) 및 화강암 석판(8)에 의한 3중 적층체로 구성되어 있어서 처리실(1)내의 온도가 일정온도, 예컨대 25-40℃로 되도록 가열시키면 담배를 유효하게 처리하는데 요구되는 다량의 원적외선을 방출하게 되는 것이다.Therefore, according to the present invention, the above-described far infrared ray generating source 5 is composed of a triple laminate of a planar heating element 6 which emits a large amount of far infrared rays by heating, a bio-ceramic coated nonwoven fabric 7 and a granite slab 8. In this case, when the temperature in the processing chamber 1 is heated to a constant temperature, for example, 25-40 ° C., a large amount of far infrared rays required for effective treatment of tobacco is released.

또 한편, 본 발명에 의하면 전기회로의 결선은 제4도에서 보는 바와같이, 전원플럭(13)으로부터 스위치(14), 퓨우즈(15), 더어모스타트(16), 표시램프(17), 면상발열체(6), 그리고 면상발열체(6)로부터 다시 전원플럭(13)으로 연결되는 회로의 구성으로 이루어져 있다.On the other hand, according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 4, the connection of the electric circuit is performed from the power supply plug 13 to the switch 14, the fuse 15, the thermostat 16, the display lamp 17, It consists of a planar heating element 6 and a circuit connected from the planar heating element 6 to the power supply plug 13 again.

이와같이 구성된 본 발명 장치에 의한 담배의 처리방법은 전술의 처리실(1)내에 처리할 잎담배 또는 제품담배를 선반(4)위에 올려놓은 상태에서 원적외선 발생원(5)의 면상발열체(6)를 적정온도로 가온시키므로서 원적외선 발생원(5)에서 원적외선을 방출시키고 방출된 원적외선이 담배의 세포에 침투되게 하여 잎담배를 숙성시키거나 또는 제품담배를 순화시키는 것인바, 전원플럭(13)을 전원에 접속하고 스위치(14)를 넣으면 면상발열체(6)가 더어모스타트(16)에 설정된 적정온도(25-40℃)로 가열되면서 그 면상발열체(6)의 도전성 피막층(10)에 혼입된 무기산화물 분말로부터 원적외선이 방출되고 이와함께 면상발열체(6)에 의하여 가열받는 바이오 세라믹 코팅부직포(7)층에서도 바이오 세라믹 분말로부터 원적외선이 방출될 뿐 아니라, 가열받은 화강암 석판(8)에서도 원적외선이 방출되게 되어 결과적으로 원적외선 발생원(5)에서는 다량의 원적외선이 처리실(1) 내측을 향하여 방출되게 된다.According to the method for treating tobacco by the apparatus of the present invention configured as described above, the planar heating element 6 of the far-infrared radiation source 5 is placed at an appropriate temperature in a state where a leaf tobacco or a product tobacco to be treated in the treatment chamber 1 is placed on the shelf 4. By heating the far-infrared rays from the far-infrared generator 5, the emitted far-infrared rays penetrate the cells of the tobacco to mature the leaf tobacco or to purify the product tobacco.The power plug 13 is connected to a power source and the switch ( 14), the planar heating element 6 is heated to an appropriate temperature (25-40 ° C.) set in the thermostat 16, and far infrared rays are emitted from the inorganic oxide powder mixed in the conductive coating layer 10 of the planar heating element 6. Even in the layer of the bio-ceramic coated nonwoven fabric (7) which is released and heated by the planar heating element (6), not only the far infrared rays are emitted from the bio-ceramic powder, but also the heated granite stone 8 is presented in the far-infrared emission is presented as a result far-infrared ray generating source (5), a large amount of far infrared rays processing chamber 1 emitted towards the inner side.

전술한 바와같이 처리실(1)내로 방출된 원적외선은 이후 담배의 식물체 세포내로 침투하여 세포의 분자운동을 촉진시키므로서 처리할 담배가 잎담배일 경우에는 세포가 급격히 사멸되지 아니하고 서서히 숙성과정을 거치게 되므로 담배의 향끽미를 손상시킴이 없이 잎담배를 숙성시켜 주게 되는 것이다.As described above, the far-infrared rays emitted into the treatment chamber 1 subsequently penetrate into the plant cells of the tobacco and promote the molecular movement of the cells. Thus, when the tobacco to be treated is a leaf tobacco, the cells are not abruptly killed and are gradually aged. The leaves will be matured without compromising the flavor.

따라서, 본 발명에 의하면 잎담배를 자연건조 숙성시킨 것과 대등한 숙성상태로 처리할 수 있으면서도 처리실내에서의 가열건조 숙성방법을 채용하므로서 숙성처리시간을 대폭적으로 단축시킬 수 있어서 고품질의 잎담배를 저렴한 생산비로 생산해 낼 수 있는 경제적인 효과를 나타내게 된다.Therefore, according to the present invention, while the leaf tobacco can be treated in a state of maturation comparable to that of natural drying, it is possible to drastically shorten the aging treatment time by adopting a heat-drying method of maturation in the treatment chamber, so that high-quality leaf tobacco can be produced at low cost It will produce economic effects that can be produced.

또 한편, 처리대상 담배가 포장된 상태의 제품담배인 경우에는 원적외선이 담배의 세포조직 물질에 침투하여 니코틴이나 타르등 인체에 유해한 성분의 분해감소를 촉진하게 되므로 유해성분이 크게 저감되어 담배맛을 한층 순화시켜 줄 수 있는 개선된 효과를 나타내게 된다.On the other hand, in the case of a tobacco product packaged with a target tobacco, far-infrared rays penetrate the cellular tissues of tobacco and promote degradation of harmful components such as nicotine and tar, which greatly reduces harmful ingredients and further enhances the taste of tobacco. It will show an improved effect that can be purified.
