Abstract

The present invention relates to a filter (10) for cigarette paper (11) for forming a tobacco-receiving dimensionally stable enclosure (12) of a rotatable filter cigarette (1), which is characterized in that the filter (10) on the cigarette paper (11 ) fixedly arranged (integrated) or fixed (integratable) filter element (10 ') comprises, which is formed of a substantially flat shape in a substantially cylindrical shape collapsible or rollable filter material (10 ").

Description

Technical area

The present invention relates to a filter for cigarette paper for forming a tobacco-receiving dimensionally stable, and preferably using using Klebbrandgummierung provided envelope of a rotatable filter cigarette.

State of the art

According to the prior art, it has recently been known to turn cigarettes using glued cigarette gummed papers. This self-turning requires the user already a high level of manual dexterity and a not inconsiderable amount of time.

However, if the cigarettes are to be additionally equipped with a filter, the consumer is forced to roll two separate product components together and into each other, which makes this process even more difficult, especially since the result varies greatly in size, strength and degree of filling over the length of the cigarette fails. In particular, however, the insertion and adjustment of the filter proves to be extremely cumbersome. While the adhesive surface is twisting together, the user has to readjust or reinsert the often slipped filter and, on twisting on one side, the tobacco and on the other side the filter separately and therefore cumbersome.

The use of devices that support the self-rotation (so-called cigarette lathes or fabric machines), can not provide a remedy, since they are just as complicated in their application. In addition, there are the not inconsiderable costs for the purchase of two previously necessary components.

Presentation of the invention

The present invention is therefore based on the object to provide a filter for cigarette paper, which eliminates the aforementioned problems.

According to the invention the above object is achieved according to the preamble of claim 1 in conjunction with the characterizing features. Advantageous embodiments and further developments of the filter according to the invention are specified in the dependent subclaims.

According to the invention, a filter of the type mentioned in the opening paragraph is characterized in that it comprises a (integrated) or fixed (integrable) filter element fixed to the cigarette paper and consisting of a filter material which can be folded or rolled up from a substantially flat shape into a substantially cylindrical shape is formed.

By "substantially flat" means that the filter material in its initial form over its entire surface almost continuously flat or evenly distributed, so as to ensure a nearly flat design, which can be collapsed or rolled up during later use.

It is of course possible that the corresponding surface has, for example (angular, partially circular or formed with other geometric patterns) elevations or depressions on its surface. On the underside, the filter element for the arrangement on the cigarette paper is advantageously completely flat.

The advantages associated with an integrated filter element advantages of the cigarette paper are versatile and can be explained below only in the approach.

First of all, this 2in 1 solution represents a considerable handling convenience; no slippage of the conventional filter; significant cost savings through the use of a 2in 1 component; general increase in rigidity and strength of the components. The many times simplified turning ability ensures a Befoermelerung the tobacco and requires no exercise from the consumer. A kinking during the turning process is also effectively prevented.

Embodiment of the invention

How out 1 can be seen, is the filter material 10 " preferably from a plurality of mutually parallel, elongated filter sections 10 ''' educated. The filter sections 10 ''' are for this purpose advantageously cylindrical or partially cylindrical (see 1 . 3 and 6 ).

How out 3 can be seen, are the filter sections 10 ''' formed like a chamber in this embodiment.

The filter sections 10 ''' are in an advantageous embodiment of the invention on a on or on the cigarette paper 11 applicable carrier material 13 applied (see 4 ).

Like from the 1 - 6 can be seen, is the filter material 10 " preferably almost over the entire width of the cigarette paper 11 applied or applied.

In the 4 and 5 an embodiment of the cigarette paper is shown, wherein the filter material 10 " from the outside towards the inside of the cigarette paper 11 Folded to the cigarette paper 11 is arranged.

In the 6 and 7 shows the filter material 10 " at least one perforation 14 on.

Like from the 1 - 7 As can be seen, it is particularly advantageous to use the cigarette paper 11 with a double-sided adhesive tape gumming 15 embody.

The filter according to the invention 10 is not limited in its execution to the above-mentioned preferred embodiments. Rather, a variety of design variations are possible, which make use of the solution shown even with fundamentally different type of execution.
