A method of constructing a cigar includes the providing of a plurality of frusto-conically shaped tubes, each tube being of a smokable material such as a spirally wrapped layer of tobacco material. The tubes are nested, one tube inside the other tube. The nested tubes are then attached to a mouthpiece having a socket that is internally threaded. The nested tubes and mouthpiece are packaged either filled with tobacco filler material, partially filled, or unfilled in a container.

An electronic grinder powered by a smartphone has an electronics housing removably attached to a container section. The electronics housing has a motor and a microcontroller powered by a smartphone connected by a universal serial bus connector. The container section is sealed at the top by an openable, swivel-mounted cap. The motor has a blade that extends into the container section. The blade connected to the motor by a magnetic connection and the blade is configured to grind material disposed in the container section when the container section is closed.

A electronic grinder includes a main body and a grinding and dispensing chamber. The top of the main body open but covered by a cap. The main chamber includes a motor connected to a magnetically attached removable blade and propeller. The blade and propeller extend into the chamber when the grinder is assembled. When the cap is closed, the blade and propeller grinds material placed in the chamber and pull air down toward the blade and propeller. When the cap is opened, the blade and propeller function as a fan to generate airflow toward the top of the chamber to dispense ground material out of the chamber. The grinder can also include a microcontroller, a communications device, an infrared volume sensor, a scale, an audible buzzer, a vibration buzzer, and one or more sanitizing LED lights.

A system and a method for on-line analysis of a structure of dried shredded tobacco are provided. The system includes a shredded tobacco structure on-line analysis module, a shredded tobacco filling capacity prediction model module, and an early-warning module. The shredded tobacco structure on-line analysis module includes a sample extraction unit, a sample analysis unit and a shredded tobacco filling capacity data acquisition unit. The shredded tobacco filling capacity prediction model module includes a model parameter screening unit and a model construction unit. An early-warning threshold is provided in the early-warning module, and when a deviation of a predicted shredded tobacco filling capacity from a standard value exceeds the early-warning threshold, an alarm is given. The new system is an intelligent system with functions of shredded tobacco structure analysis, shredded tobacco filling capacity prediction, and abnormality early-warning determination and analysis.
