Description

Manufacturing device and manufacturing method of heating type cigarette bar

Technical Field

Background

In the environment of continuous pursuing of tar and harm reduction of cigarette products, heating non-combustible cigarettes is rapidly developed in recent years due to lower tar hazard and excellent consumption experience. The existing heating non-burning cigarettes are mainly divided into a central heating type and a surface heating type according to different heating modes, wherein the central heating type has advantages in the consistency of smoke taste, smoking times and single smoke quantity, and takes an absolute leading role in the market. The center-heated cigarette is comprised of a plurality of short rods of differing function, typically including tobacco-based rods containing tobacco components, support rods, cooling rods, filter rods, and the like.

The tobacco base rod is the most core functional unit of the heating type cigarette, and is usually manufactured by expanding rolled reconstituted tobacco into tobacco sheets, embossing, curling or shredding, and wrapping with cigarette paper.

In the manufacturing process, on one hand, a flat continuous tobacco rod needs to be pushed into a round rod, the distribution and filling amount of the tobacco rod in the round rod are consistent, the tobacco rod is horizontally arranged in the axial direction of the tobacco rod, and the length of the tobacco rod is consistent, so that the tobacco rod is beneficial to product use, heat transfer and aerosol release, but the tobacco rod manufactured by the prior known technology has great randomness in the arrangement and filling amount of the tobacco rod.

On the other hand, reconstituted tobacco used for tobacco rods is a regenerated product prepared by taking waste tobacco materials such as tobacco powder, tobacco stems, crushed tobacco flakes and the like in the cigarette process as raw materials and adding certain plasticizers, adhesives, moisture retention agents and the like, the tobacco sheets are uneven in material distribution in small local areas per se, the tensile strength is different, and the tobacco sheets are easy to break at the places with weak strength or large-particle nodules when processed by using the existing shredding technology.

On the other hand, the content of propylene glycol, glycerol and perfume in the reconstituted tobacco used for heating type cigarettes is far greater than that of the traditional reconstituted tobacco, and meanwhile, the fibers in the materials are small, so that the difference of physical properties of the two materials is large, the two materials are higher in viscosity and low in tensile strength, a large amount of sticky powder can be generated during processing, and the existing embossing or cutting processing method is extremely not suitable for the materials.

As shown in fig. 1, a schematic structural diagram of a device for manufacturing a heating type cigarette rod according to an embodiment of the present invention is provided, which is used for processing and feeding a heating non-combustible type cigarette rod.

In conventional cigarettes, short cut tobacco blends, which are obtained by mixing cut tobacco leaves, cut stems and the like in proportion, are generally called cut tobacco, and the cut tobacco is irregularly filled in forming paper to form a cigarette product. In order to distinguish short cut tobacco from conventional cigarettes, continuous cut tobacco made from rolled reconstituted tobacco is hereinafter referred to as tobacco rod.

The invention expands the low-strength rolled reconstituted tobacco into tobacco sheets P, cuts the tobacco sheets P into tobacco rods P ' (shown in figure 6), and conveys the cut tobacco rods P ' to a downstream process, and pushes the tobacco rods P ' into round strips of tobacco base rods to form the tobacco base rods by the downstream process. The present invention is directed to cutting the tobacco sheet P and conveying the tobacco rod P ', and the procedure of pushing the downstream tobacco rod P' into the circular rod of the tobacco base rod is processed according to the prior art, which will not be described in detail in the following embodiments of the present invention.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a manufacturing apparatus of a heating type cigarette rod includes an unreeling unit 1, a crimping unit 4, a cutting unit 2, and a feeding unit 3, which are sequentially arranged in a flow direction, and a cleaning unit 5 arranged below the cutting unit 2.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the flow direction refers to the direction in which the tobacco sheet P is conveyed, i.e., the direction of the process flow. In this embodiment, the flow direction is right to left as shown in fig. 1, and in some embodiments, the flow direction may be left to right, which is specifically set according to the actual processing situation.

The low-strength rolled reconstituted tobacco is unfolded into tobacco sheets P through an unreeling unit 1, enters a crimping unit 4 for limiting twisting movement of the tobacco sheets P in the transverse direction, is cut into a plurality of tobacco strips P' in a flat mode after passing through a cutting unit 2, is subjected to efficient online automatic cleaning treatment by a cleaning unit 5, and is conveyed to downstream equipment after being gathered at the tail ends after being cut by a feeding unit 3.

The unreeling unit 1 of the present invention, as shown in fig. 2, is configured to unreel rolled reconstituted tobacco into a tobacco sheet P and to provide the unreeled tobacco sheet P with a constant tension, according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In the embodiment of the invention, the unreeling unit 1 comprises two reels 101, and the two reels 101 are respectively wound with the rolled reconstituted tobacco. According to the embodiment of the invention, when the rolled reconstituted tobacco on one winding drum 101 is completely unfolded (or nearly completely unfolded), the rolled reconstituted tobacco on the other winding drum 101 is unfolded and spliced with the rolled reconstituted tobacco, so that the unfolded tobacco sheet P is continuously processed in the downstream process, and the online splicing and continuous supply of the tobacco sheet P are realized through the circular switching of the rolled reconstituted tobacco on the two winding drums 101.

In some embodiments, only one drum may be provided, and the rolled reconstituted tobacco on the drum 101 may be provided according to actual production scale.

According to an embodiment of the invention, the unreeling unit 1 further comprises a power machine 102, a rotation shaft 103, a connecting device 104 and a guiding roller 105.

In some embodiments, on the side where the tobacco sheet P is introduced into the cutting unit 2, the head of the first air guiding block 2111 and the head of the second air guiding block 2112 are offset in directions away from each other to ensure that the tobacco sheet P smoothly enters the cutting unit 2 for cutting.

Fig. 17 shows a schematic diagram of the structure of the crimping unit of the present invention, the crimping unit 4 being arranged between the unreeling unit 1 and the cutting unit 2, upstream of the cutting unit 2. In one embodiment, the distance A between the curling unit 4 and the axial center of the first knife roller 202 and the axial center of the second knife roller 203 is 0.5-1.5 times of the transverse width of the tobacco sheet P, and the wrapping angle beta=60-180 degrees of the tobacco sheet P on the curling unit 4 is achieved by adjusting the guide roller 105.

In a further embodiment, the distance a=50 mm to 150mm between the curling unit 4 and the axial center of the first cutter roller 202 and the axial center of the second cutter roller 203.

As shown in a schematic structure of the feeding unit of the present invention in fig. 18, a schematic structure of a gap is formed between the outer circumference of the first traction roller and the outer circumference of the second traction roller in fig. 19, a feeding unit 3 is disposed at the downstream side of the cutting unit 2, the cut tobacco rods P 'are conveyed to the feeding unit 3 in a straight manner, and the feeding unit 3 is used for drawing the plurality of tobacco rods P' to be conveyed in a straight manner along the flow direction. The feeding unit 3 extends from the point of exit of the rod P' of the cutting unit 2 all the way to the inlet end of the downstream equipment.

The feeding unit 3 includes at least one set of traction roller pairs, a first planar groove plate 305, a second planar groove plate 306, a converging funnel 301, a motor 304, and a negative pressure suction nozzle 307.

The pulling roll pair includes a first pulling roll 302 and a second pulling roll 303. The surface of the first pulling roll 302 is provided with at least one bar-shaped groove 3021 along the axial direction of the first pulling roll 302. The gap C between the outer circumference of the first pulling roll 302 and the outer circumference of the second pulling roll 303 is smaller than the thickness of the tobacco rod P ', and when the first pulling roll 302 rotates until the strip-shaped groove 3021 is opposite to the second pulling roll 303, the gap C1 between the edge of the strip-shaped groove 3021 and the outer circumference of the second pulling roll 303 is larger than the thickness of the tobacco rod P'.

The mounting axis of the first pulling roll 302 is parallel to the first knife roll 202 axis and the mounting axis of the second pulling roll 303 is parallel to the second knife roll 203 axis. The gap C between the first pulling roll 302 and the second pulling roll 303 is slightly smaller than the thickness of the tobacco rod P ', and when the tobacco rod P ' enters the gap between the first pulling roll 302 and the second pulling roll 303, a certain pressure is formed on the tobacco rod P '. The motor 304 drives the first pulling roll 302 and the second pulling roll 303 to rotate in opposite directions, and pulls the tobacco rod P' to advance by the action of the clamping force in accordance with the production speed of the apparatus.

When the bar groove 3021 of the first pulling roll 302 rotates to the pulling position of the tobacco rod P '(the bar groove 3021 is opposite to the second pulling roll 303), the gap C between the outer circumference of the first pulling roll 302 and the outer circumference of the second pulling roll 303 increases, and becomes the gap C1 (greater than the thickness of the tobacco rod P') between the edge of the bar groove 3021 and the outer circumference of the second pulling roll 303, at this time, the first pulling roll 302 and the second pulling roll 303 have no pressure on the tobacco rod P ', and the tobacco rod P' can adaptively slide back and forth between the first pulling roll 302 and the second pulling roll 303.

According to the embodiment of the invention, the first plane groove plate 305 and the second plane groove plate 306 are arranged flatly on two sides of the traction roller pair, the bottom surfaces of the first plane groove plate 305 and the second plane groove plate 306 are respectively provided with a plurality of dust collection holes, the converging funnel 301 is arranged on the downstream side of the second plane groove plate 306, and the first plane groove plate 305 extends between the first knife roller 202 and the second knife roller 203. As shown in the schematic cross-section of the converging funnel of the present invention in fig. 20, the converging funnel 301 has a venturi structure inside, the converging funnel 301 is provided with a nozzle 308, and compressed air is introduced into the converging funnel 301 through the nozzle 308 in the venturi structure inside.

The inlet end of the converging funnel 301 is square to facilitate entry of the rods P'. The outlet end of the converging funnel 301 tapers to a circular shape for gathering the rods P'. After gathering the plurality of rods P', they are transported by the outlet end of the converging funnel 301 to downstream equipment.

Specifically, the venturi tube structure inside the converging funnel 301 is continuously supplied with air through the nozzle 308, so that the negative pressure is generated at the outlet end of the converging funnel 301, and under the action of the pressure difference, the converging funnel 301 continuously sucks the tobacco rods P 'conveyed by the first traction roller 302 and the second traction roller 303, and gathers the tobacco rods P'. After gathering the plurality of rods P', they are transported by the outlet end of the converging funnel 301 to downstream equipment.

It is advantageous to pre-gather the flat rods P' prior to shaping the tobacco base rod. For example, the pre-gathering can enable the tobacco rod P ' to be pushed into the round rod of the tobacco base rod to obtain smaller forming resistance, and further enable the tobacco rods P ' on two sides to be gathered towards the central axis of the round rod of the tobacco base rod at a slow transverse moving speed, so that the tobacco rods P ' can be better and straightly distributed in the round rod of the tobacco base rod.

In some embodiments, the diameter of the venturi structure at the location of the smallest cross section inside the converging funnel 301 is 1.5-3 times the diameter of the circular strip of tobacco-based rod.

The soft and weak tobacco rods P 'are difficult to be led out from the first annular knife grooves 205 and the second annular knife grooves 207 of the cutting unit 2, the pretightening force applied to the tobacco rods P' can be stably maintained in the running process of the device by utilizing the first traction roller 302 and the second traction roller 303, the pretightening force can ensure the flat and orderly conveying of the tobacco rods P ', the subsequent parallel distribution of the tobacco rods P' in the axial direction after the transverse gathering is facilitated, the flat posture of the tobacco rods P 'is kept unchanged, and the smooth leading-out of the tobacco rods P' from the cutting unit 2 can be effectively realized.

However, in objective terms, the first pulling roll 302 and the second pulling roll 303, and the plurality of first annular sipes 205 and the plurality of second annular sipes 207 cannot completely achieve line speed consistency due to manufacturing and control accuracy. Therefore, when the first traction roller 302 and the second traction roller 303 and the first annular knife grooves 205 and the second annular knife grooves 207 are not in sliding transmission, accumulated errors are generated, and when the errors exceed a certain value, the cigarette sticks P' are broken, the rollers are entangled, the unordered arrangement is caused, and the equipment efficiency and the production quality of finished products are seriously limited.

According to the invention, at least one strip-shaped groove 3021 is formed in the surface of the first traction roller 302 along the axial direction of the first traction roller 302, a gap C between the outer circumference of the first traction roller 302 and the outer circumference of the second traction roller 303 is smaller than the thickness of a cigarette strip P ', and when the first traction roller 302 rotates until the strip-shaped groove 3021 is opposite to the second traction roller 303, the gap C1 between the edge of the strip-shaped groove 3021 and the outer circumference of the second traction roller 303 is larger than the thickness of the cigarette strip P'.

The converging funnel 301 is arranged on the downstream side of the second plane groove plate 306, the venturi tube structure in the converging funnel 301 continuously provides compressed air through the nozzle 308, so that negative pressure is generated at the outlet end of the converging funnel 301, flexible traction is continuously carried out on the cigarette rods P ' in the operation process under the action of pressure difference, and further when the strip-shaped groove 3021 of the first traction roller 302 rotates to a traction position of the cigarette rods P ' (the strip-shaped groove 3021 is opposite to the second traction roller 303), the cigarette rods P ' can slide back and forth in a self-adaptive mode between the first traction roller 302 and the second traction roller 303, and therefore accumulated errors in conveying are eliminated.

According to the invention, through the adjustment of the flexible traction force of the tobacco rods P 'in the convergence funnel 301, when the tobacco rods P' pass through a gap C1 between the strip-shaped groove 3021 of the first traction roller 302 and the outer circumference of the second traction roller 303, the tobacco rods P 'can adaptively slide back and forth under the traction of negative pressure, so that the accumulated error of conveying is eliminated, and breakage, winding and disordered arrangement of the tobacco rods P' are avoided.

In some embodiments, a buffer is provided between the outlet end of the convergence funnel 301 and the downstream equipment, so that the tobacco rod P 'is stably conveyed to the downstream equipment, for example, a certain buffer amount is formed by speed control, and the buffer amount can be used for compensating the conveying error of the tobacco rod P'.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, when a plurality of rods P 'are transferred to the feeding unit 3, the plurality of rods P' are transferred over the first planar groove plate 305 and the second planar groove plate 306. In some embodiments, the plurality of tobacco rods P' are spaced from the upper surfaces of the first planar fluted plate 305 and the second planar fluted plate 306 by a distance of 0 to 1mm.

In a further embodiment, the distance between the plurality of tobacco rods P' and the upper surfaces of the first planar slot plate 305 and the second planar slot plate 306 is adjustable.

In a further embodiment, the tobacco rod P' may be in light contact with the upper surfaces of the first planar slot plate 305 and the second planar slot plate 306 when tensioned.

Because the tobacco rod P ' has the characteristics of low strength, high flexibility, easy breakage and the like, it is necessary to decide that a certain support is taken on the tobacco rod P ' to assist the conveying thereof, and the present invention takes a certain support on the tobacco rod P ' through the first planar groove plate 305 and the second planar groove plate 306 to assist the conveying thereof.

Since the transfer of the rods P 'requires slight tension, however, the slight tension of the rods P' is essentially jittery at high speed transfer, which inevitably leads to breakage of the individual rods P ', the jittery of the rods P' can be effectively suppressed by the first planar groove plate 305 and the second planar groove plate 306.

In addition, in objective terms, the first drawing roller 302 and the second drawing roller 303, in correspondence with the fact that the line speed of the plurality of first annular sipes 205 and the plurality of second annular sipes 207 cannot be completely achieved due to the precision of manufacture and control, breakage of the rods P ' between the pair of drawing roller sets and the cutting unit is not completely avoided, and the present invention supports the rods P ' by means of the first plane groove plate 305 and the second plane groove plate 306, the front section of the broken rods P ' remaining continuously conveyed forward in the flexible traction of the converging funnel 301. The rear section of the broken cigarette rod P ' is pulled to continue to be conveyed forwards by friction force generated by the cigarette rod P ' in normal surrounding conveying, when the head of the rear section of the broken cigarette rod P ' passes through the first traction roller 302 and the second traction roller 303, a clamping force is built again to realize flat and orderly conveying, the broken cigarette rod P ' can be maintained on a preset path of conveying the cigarette rod P ', and irreversible loss of materials is avoided.
