According to a first aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of producing a blank of semi-finished tipping paper for tipping paper used to make rod-shaped articles. The method comprises the following steps: providing a continuous strip of tipping paper extending in a longitudinal direction, the strip having two opposing longitudinal edges; and cutting the continuous strip along a plurality of transverse cut lines spaced from each other in the longitudinal direction of the continuous strip to form the plurality of blank tipping papers. Each transverse cut line includes a straight transverse portion extending transversely from each longitudinal edge to intersect the arcuate central portion. The arcuate central portion forms a tab which extends into a recess in the next adjacent blank of semi-finished tipping paper such that each blank of semi-finished tipping paper comprises a transverse tab edge and an opposing transverse recess edge.
As used herein, the term "semi-finished" refers to tipping paper material that has been cut from a reel, but requires the further step of converting the semi-finished tipping paper material into a final tipping paper that is wrapped around the finished smoking article. In the present case, each "semi-finished" blank of tipping paper comprises tipping paper for two rods, as will be described.
As will also be described, when the blank of semi-finished tipping paper is further processed to make tipping paper for a rod-shaped article, the tabs are cut to form tabs that assist in the removal of the tipping paper. Advantageously, forming the tab of one blank of semi-finished tipping paper from the material of the next adjacent blank of tipping paper leaves a recess in the next adjacent blank of tipping paper. This means that no additional material is required to make the pull tab. This may reduce or avoid tipping paper waste. As described below, the grooves are not visible to the consumer of the final article.
According to one embodiment, the method of the first aspect of the present invention may comprise the further step of providing the continuous strip of tipping paper with two continuous longitudinally extending lines of perforations, one on each side between the longitudinal edges and the arcuate central portion. The longitudinally extending perforation line intersects the transverse cut line.
The method according to this embodiment may advantageously comprise the further step of providing pairs of opposite diagonal perforation lines between each pair of transverse cutting lines. A diagonal perforation line extends from and at an acute angle to each longitudinally extending perforation line. Both of the opposing diagonal perforation lines terminate proximate the arcuate center portion. Preferably, according to this embodiment, the opposite diagonal perforation lines end between two intersections of the two straight transverse portions with the curved central portion.
Advantageously, the method according to the first aspect of the present invention further comprises the step of separating adjacent similarly shaped blanks of semi-finished tipping paper from each other in the longitudinal direction of the strip.
According to an embodiment of the present invention there is provided a blank of semi-finished tipping paper for use in the preparation of rod-shaped articles, the blank of semi-finished tipping paper comprising a strip of tipping paper extending in a longitudinal direction, wherein the strip comprises two opposed longitudinal edges. The transverse tab edge comprises a straight transverse portion extending transversely from each longitudinal edge to intersect with the arcuate central portion to form a tab extending from the blank of semi-finished tipping paper.

Detailed Description
Figure 1 shows a continuous strip of tipping paper 1 with cut and perforated lines according to the invention. In particular, transverse cut lines are shown, each comprising a pair of straight transverse portions 2 extending inwardly from a longitudinal edge, both intersecting an arcuate central portion 3, the arcuate central portions 3 being symmetrically disposed about a nominal central longitudinal axis 4 of the continuous strip within production tolerances. Each blank of semi-finished tipping paper 5 is part of a strip of continuous tipping paper 1 which extends between two successive transverse cuts, and each arcuate central portion 3 forms a tab which projects into a recess in the next adjacent blank of semi-finished tipping paper 5.
The continuous strip 1 shown in fig. 1 additionally comprises two continuous, longitudinally extending perforation lines 6, one on each side between the longitudinal edges and the arcuate central portion 3 of the transverse cut. It can be seen that the continuous longitudinally extending perforation line 6 intersects the straight transverse portion 2 of the transverse cut line.
The continuous strip shown in fig. 1 additionally comprises a pair of opposing diagonal perforation lines 7 between each pair of transverse cut lines, the diagonal perforation lines 7 extending from each longitudinally extending perforation line 6 and at an acute angle to each longitudinally extending perforation line 6, the two opposing diagonal perforation lines 7 terminating adjacent the arcuate central portion 3.
Figure 2 shows a blank of semi-finished tipping paper 5 which has been severed from the continuous strip of tipping paper 1 shown in figure 1. The blank of semi-finished tipping paper comprises tabs 8 and grooves 9 and adhesive has been applied in longitudinal regions 10 adjacent each longitudinal edge and in transverse regions 11 adjacent transverse groove edges and adjacent transverse tab edges, but not to the tabs themselves. As shown in the figures, each longitudinal zone 10 extends longitudinally along each longitudinal edge, but does not extend transversely to the longitudinal perforations. Furthermore, the lateral zones 11 are located either side of the groove 9 on the lateral groove edge or on the tab 8 on the lateral tab edge.
Figure 3 shows two rod-shaped articles 12 that have been placed end-to-end, the blank of semi-finished tipping paper 5 having been wrapped around and adhered by adhesive to the butt end so that the unattached tab 8 protrudes away from the tipping paper. The tab 8 is connected to a circumferential perforation line 13 (corresponding to the longitudinally extending perforation line 6 of fig. 1 and 2) by a diagonal perforation line 14 (corresponding to the opposite diagonal perforation line 7 of fig. 1 and 2).
In a subsequent, not shown flow step applied to the arrangement of figure 3, the blank of semi-finished tipping paper 5 is cut and severed midway between the two rod-shaped articles and through the middle of the tab 8 to provide two separate rod-shaped articles, each tipping with tipping paper. This arrangement is shown in fig. 4, which shows a rod-shaped article 12 tipping with tipping paper 15 including a pull tab 16. The tipping paper has a circumferential perforation line 13 connected to a pull tab 16 by a diagonal perforation line 14, such that in use, after pulling on the pull tab 16, the tipping paper breaks along the diagonal perforation line 13 and then along the connected circumferential perforation line 13 to facilitate removal of the tipping paper.
Figure 5 is a schematic view of an apparatus suitable for making a blank of semi-finished tipping paper according to the invention. There is shown a continuous strip 17 of tipping paper which is fed into a cutting and perforation assembly 18 in a transport direction indicated by the arrow. The cutting and perforating assembly 18 includes a cutting and perforating die roller 19 that defines a circumferential surface having a plurality of regularly spaced arcuate cutting blades (not shown) configured to effectively cut the continuous strip along a plurality of centrally located arcuate cut lines spaced from one another in the direction of conveyance of the continuous strip such that each arcuate cut line forms a tab that projects into a groove. The cutting drum 20 is located in the conveying direction behind the cutting and perforation die roller 19, the cutting drum 20 having transverse cutting means (not shown) arranged to provide transverse cuts, one on either side of each arcuate cut across the continuous strip, so as not to cut the tabs but to sever semi-finished tipping paper blanks from the continuous strip, wherein each semi-finished tipping paper blank comprises tabs and grooves
In this embodiment, the cutting and perforation assembly 18 additionally comprises an opposing roller 21 configured to bring the continuous strip 17 into cutting and perforating contact with the circumferential surface of the cutting and perforation die roller 19, although alternative methods of achieving this are known to the skilled person.
The cutting and perforating assembly according to the embodiment shown in fig. 5 comprises an additional roller 22 located after the cutting and perforating die roller 19 and before the cutting drum 20 in the conveying direction and in the vicinity of the counter roller 21 for conveying the continuous strip 17 between the counter roller and the additional roller.
