Description

Preparation device of hollow filter stick with functional parts

Technical Field

The utility model relates to the field of cigarette filter stick preparation, in particular to a preparation device of a hollow filter stick with functional parts.

Background

With consumer importance on health problems and the increasing demand for personalized experience of cigarette products, the tobacco industry is continuously responding to consumer demand upgrading, and various smoking articles with tar and harm reducing effects are developed. Wherein, the heating cigarette is different from the traditional cigarette product in the cigarette heating mode, so that the heating cigarette can provide healthier smoking experience while meeting the sensory requirements of consumers on the cigarette product.

The existing aerosol generating products comprise a smoke generating section, a supporting section, a cooling section and a filtering section, wherein the supporting section, the cooling section and the filtering section can all use tow-shaped filter sticks, and the filter sticks are usually acetate tow filter sticks (acetate fibers are hereinafter abbreviated as acetate fibers) which can filter harmful components in smoke. The solid filter stick has the characteristic of high retention rate, the retention rate of smoke needs to be reduced in the design of heating cigarettes, and a better method in the industry is to make the filter stick into a hollow filter stick.

At present, the production of the hollow filter stick basically adopts the step of adding a rigid stick at the rear end of the converging and gathering of the horn mouth of a conventional filter stick forming machine, so that a hollow structure is formed at the position occupied by the rigid stick after the acetate fiber bundles are gathered.

With the continuous upgrading of cigarette flavoring technology, each section of the cigarette gradually has flavoring requirements, and particularly for the novel tobacco product heating cigarette, the supporting section is usually an acetate fiber hollow filter rod. The section is close to a heat source, the smoke temperature is higher than that of the lip-end acetate fiber filtering section, and the section is more suitable for volatilization and release of flavoring substances, so that the section has good application prospect in flavoring the hollow filter stick used for the supporting section.

With respect to the current hollow filter rod processing technology, the available flavoring modes are fewer, and the main processes at present are as follows: 1. adding soluble essence into plasticizer for perfuming; 2. directly soaking the formed hollow filter stick in the flavoring substances to adsorb the flavoring substances; 3. and coating or spraying flavoring substances on the inner surface of the hollow cavity of the formed hollow filter stick. The first of the above methods has the disadvantage that: 1. only the flavors compatible with the glyceryl triacetate can be selected, and the selection range of the essence and the flavor is narrow. 2. The flavored glyceryl triacetate can circulate throughout the system, resulting in a cumbersome replacement of the flavoring formulation, requiring thorough cleaning of the entire plasticizer application system. The second method and the third method both require an additional perfuming step after the hollow filter rod is molded, and the steps are complicated and the cost is increased.

In summary, how to more simply and effectively perfume a hollow filter rod is a problem that needs to be solved by people.

The present utility model has been made to solve the above problems.
