In order to reduce the labor and cost of tobacco loading for flue curing, a set of rapid hanging tobacco clamping device was designed on the basis of manual tobacco tying, tobacco clamp and loose leaf loading. The device was composed of curved needles, bars to press tobacco leaves, screwed lockers, hooks for hanging tobacco clamps and a frame. Tobacco was brought together to a definite position by the frame rather than by spring or external force during loading. The devices with carried tobacco were hooked on to the sticks in curing barn, so that tobacco distributed in curing barn evenly and loosely. A comparative experiment between the designed device and conventional tobacco clamps was conducted, the results showed that: 1) Rapid hanging tobacco clamping device featured less temperature differences both in vertical and horizontal directions in a curing barn, kept uniform tobacco yellowing and dehydrating rates, and promoted the quality of cured tobacco. 2) Labor cost decreased, the proportion of orange leaves in cured leaves raised by 11.7%, and the average price of cured leaves increased by 1.8 RMB yuan/kg. 3) The sensory evaluation indicated that the aroma quality, aroma quantity and strength of cured leaves were higher than those cured via conventional tobacco clamps.%为减少烤烟装烟环节的劳动用工,降低劳动强度,在传统人工编烟、烟夹和散叶装烟等方式基础上,设计了一套快速悬挂烟夹烘烤设备.该装置包括弯状插针、卡烟横杠、螺旋锁扣、烟夹挂钩和固定框架等部件,在装烟时未使用弹簧或外力夹持烟叶,利用框架结构把烟叶圈拢到固定位置,并将装满烟叶的设备钩挂到已有烟竿上,使烟叶均匀和松散地分布在烤房内的各个棚面上.与普通烟夹设备进行对比试验,结果表明:①快速悬挂烟夹能够缩小烤房内水平和垂直方向的温度差异,使烤房内烟叶变黄和脱水速度保持一致,提高烟叶的烘烤品质.②减少了劳动用工,烤后烟叶橘色烟比例提高11.7%,烟叶均价提高1.8元/kg.③烤后烟叶感官质量评吸结果显示,其香气质、香气量、劲头等指标均高于普通烟夹设备.
