Definitions

  • the invention relates to a machine for packaging cigarettes in hinged-lid packs with a cigarette funnel, from which cigarettes can each be pushed into cells of a block turret, with the block turret being followed by conveyors having cells, which are provided with inner paper, frame and outer paper feeds as well as folding, gluing and and transfer devices are coupled and which are followed by a transfer turret and a multi-row drying turret, a slide for pushing parcels out of the transfer turret into a first row of the drying turret and optionally a further slide for pushing parcels from the first and a further row into one subsequent row of the drying turret or from the last row is provided on a conveyor.
  • hinged-lid packs It is known to pack cigarettes in hinged-lid packs, so-called hinged-lid packs.
  • a block of cigarettes to be packaged is first wrapped in inner paper and the inner package thus formed is accommodated in a hinged-lid box, which is folded and glued from a corresponding blank.
  • the removal area for the cigarettes from the hinged lid box is surrounded by a frame on three sides, which is formed from a separate blank and glued to the blank for the hinged lid box.
  • machines are known, for example, from DE-C-3 046 063, which have a cigarette funnel from which cigarettes can be pushed into cells of a block revolver, the revolver having cells, which are equipped with inner paper, and outer paper feeds as well as folding, gluing and transfer devices (slider) coupled are connected downstream, which in turn is followed by a usually multi-row dry turret.
  • the packets formed are pushed into a first row of the drying turret in order to be pushed out into further rows after a corresponding circulation and after a sufficient drying time to be pushed out.
  • the packaging speeds achieved with such machines are indeed very high, approximately 400 packets per minute or more, but the performance can hardly be increased significantly by increasing the packaging speed.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a machine of the type mentioned, which allows greater performance with good operability and gentle cigarette handling.
  • the cigarette funnel has four outlets for filling cells from two head revolvers, the two block revolvers being followed by two parallel first transport chains coupled to an inner paper station and folding elements for the inner paper around the cigarette block to form inner packets, which are arranged on the delivery side adjacent to a first belt conveyor arranged transversely thereto, parallel to the first belt conveyor, a second belt conveyor with an overlapping upper and lower strand area between them and a third belt conveyor with an overlapping upper and lower strand area of the second and third belt conveyor, wherein between the first and second belt conveyors are provided with a transfer station for two inner packages, into which two frame feeds open in such a way that two frames between the cells of the two belts located opposite one another in the transfer station Positioned and pressed during the transfer by the inner packages into the cells of the second belt conveyor, and the third belt conveyor with two plungers for pushing in one outer paper blank each from an outer paper feed into a cell of the third belt conveyor and coupled to a transfer station for two of one Provide the inner packs
  • a gentle cigarette treatment can also be ensured by taking precautions where axial sliding is over to act only on the filter side of the cigarette and not suddenly.
  • FIG. 1a and 1b schematically show a front view of a machine for packaging cigarettes in hinged-lid packs.
  • FIG. 2a to 2d schematically show the machine of Fig. 1 in plan view.
  • the machine shown comprises a cigarette funnel 2 arranged on the machine frame 1 with a total of four outlets 3, into which shafts 4 each open a substantially vertical row of cigarettes.
  • vibrating rollers 5 or the like are. arranged to support a corresponding slipping of the cigarettes towards the outlets 3.
  • the cigarettes are pushed out of the outlets 3 into cells 6 of two block revolvers 7 with the aid of slides (not shown).
  • the cigarettes are inserted alternately from two adjacent outlets 3, with every second cell 6 being filled from one outlet 3 and the cell 6 which remains empty therebetween being filled from the other outlet 3 after further clocking.
  • the block turret 7, in its area a Ziga rescue control can be provided, can be rotated in opposite directions and their cells 6, whose longitudinal axes extend in the direction of the mutually parallel turret axes of rotation, are each in their lowest, horizontal position in a transfer position to two parallel, horizontally arranged transport chains 8 for the block revolvers 7 handed cigarette packs.
  • an inner paper station 9 is provided with an inner paper feed, change and cutting device, the inner paper being drawn off from one of two inner paper reels 10 arranged one above the other.
  • the respective inner paper section is folded around the respective cigarette block conveyed by the transport chains 8 by means of appropriate folders, it being possible for the inner packet formed in this way to be closed at the head after transferring it to a cell of a belt conveyor 11.
  • the belt conveyor 11 is arranged at a right angle to the transport chains 8 and can be advanced by two cell divisions in each case. Its cells are aligned in the transfer station from the transport chains 8 to the belt conveyor 11 with the respective upper run of the transport chains 8 and are open both on the front side and on the outside. After the inner packets, which may have to be closed at the top, are conveyed into a transfer station to a further belt conveyor 12 having cells.
  • the belt conveyor 12 is located partially with its upper run below the lower run of the belt conveyor 11 and a belt conveyor 13 having third cells.
  • the three belt conveyors 11, 12, 13 are arranged horizontally in a vertical plane and are all open on the front and outside, with the longitudinal direction transverse cells arranged in the direction of transport.
  • a frame feed 14 opens into a frame inserting device 15, with which the frame 16 supplied by the frame feed device 14 is positioned between two pairs of cells of the two belt conveyors 11, 12 located one above the other, so that the frames 16 are pushed over Inner packages from the cells of the belt conveyor 11 into the cells of the belt conveyor 12 by pushers (indicated as arrows 17) into the receiving cells of the belt conveyor 12, the inner package from below and encompassing the sides.
  • the frame feed 14 comprises four frame bobbins 18 and two bobbin changing and frame cutting stations.
  • the belt conveyor 13 there are two magazines 19 for the outside paper blanks (cardboard blanks), which are replenished via conveyor belts 20 that receive stacks 21 of outer paper blanks.
  • An outer paper blank 22 is removed from the bottom of each of the two magazines 19 at the same time and arranged above a cell of the belt conveyor 13 and pushed into the respective cell by means of a plunger (indicated as arrow 23).
  • the transfer of the inner packages partially encompassed by the frames takes place in a transfer station from the cells in the upper run of the belt conveyor 12 to the cells in the lower run of the belt conveyor 13 by means of a slide.
  • the outwardly projecting tabs in the head region of the outer paper blank are glued by a cross-gluing device 26, in order to then be folded over and pressed on by a folding and pressing device 27.
  • the packs which are finally not sealed laterally, are then transferred in a further transfer station from the upper run of the belt conveyor 13 to two further transport chains 28 running perpendicular to them, in order to be guided along longitudinal gluing devices 29 and folding switches 30 for gluing and closing the packs in the side wall area.
  • the closed packages arrive in cells 31 from two coaxial transfer turrets 32, which are commonly rotatable and arranged such that two cells 31 in the transfer position are adjacent to and above one another on a drying turret 33 and in alignment with two cells 34 of the drying turret 33 are located.
  • the drying turret 33 is multi-row, in particular three-row, whereby after the parcels have been picked up by the transfer turrets 32, they are carried along by about 270 ° and then pushed into the second row by means of a corresponding double slide, whereby parcels simultaneously move from the second to the third row and from the third be pushed onto a conveyor 35.
  • the packets have a sufficiently long duration of stay in the drying turret 33, of which only about 90 ° of the first row remain unused, i.e. in the case of three rows, 2 3/4 circulation is guaranteed for each packet.
  • a central drive 36 is arranged in the machine frame 1, from which the individual drives for the individual machine units are derived.
