Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Abstreifen von Tabakpartikeln von einem Strangförderer einer Zigarettenstrangmaschine bei der Übergabe eines Tabakstrangs vom Strangförderer in eine Formateinrichtung mit einem Grundkörper zum Einsetzen in die Strangmaschine im Strangeinlaufbereich der Formateinrichtung und einer in eine Abstreifstellung zum Strangförderer positionierbare Abstreifkante.The invention relates to a device for stripping Tobacco particles from a strand conveyor of a cigarette rod machine when a strand of tobacco is handed over from the strand conveyor in a format device with a base body for insertion into the strand machine in the strand inlet area of the format device and one in a stripping position to the strand conveyor positionable scraper edge.
Zum Herstellen eines Zigarettenstrangs werden gewöhnlich vereinzelte und aufgelockerte Tabakfasern auf einem in einem Tabakkanal umlaufenden Strangförderer zu einem Faserstrang aufgeschauert, der kontinuierlich aus dem Strangaufbaubereich abgefördert und egalisiert wird, bevor er auf einen mit einem umlaufenden Formatband in eine Formateinrichtung bewegten Hüllmaterialstreifen abgelegt und in der Formateinrichtung mit dem Hüllmaterialstreifen, z.B. einem Zigarettenpapierstreifen, umhüllt wird. Der im Einlaufbereich der Formateinrichtung zunächst noch eben einlaufende Hüllmaterialstreifen wird beim Durchgang durch die Formateinrichtung zunächst U-förmig um den Faserstrang geformt, bevor er ganz um den Strang herumgelegt und zur Bildung einer zylindrischen Hülle entlang einer Überlappungsnaht in der Regel durch Verkleben um den Strang herum geschlossen wird.Individuals are usually used to make a cigarette rod and loosened tobacco fibers on one in a tobacco channel revolving strand conveyor piled up to a fiber strand, the continuously from the strand construction area is promoted and equalized before it hits you with one encircling format tape in a format device moving wrapping material strips filed and in the format setup with the Wrapping material strips, e.g. a strip of cigarette paper, is enveloped. The one in the inlet area of the format setup first The wrapping material strip that is just arriving is at the Passage through the format device first U-shaped around the Fiber strand formed before being wrapped all around the strand and to form a cylindrical shell along an overlap seam usually by gluing around the strand is closed.
Als Strangförderer wird gewöhnlich ein luftdurchlässiges Gewebeband eingesetzt, in dem sich durch den angelegten Unterdruck oder infolge des mechanischen Drucks beim Komprimieren des Faserstrangs Tabakpartikel aus dem Strang festsetzen können, die eine ordnungsgemäße Übergabe aller Teilchen des Strangs in die Formateinrichtung behindern. Um sicherzustellen, daß alle Teilchen des Strangs, auch solche, die sich am Strangförderer festgesetzt haben, in die Formateinrichtung abgegeben werden, weist diese an ihrem Einlaufende eine Vorrichtung zum Abstreifen von Tabakteilchen, einen sogenannten Schaber, auf (US-A 3 915 176). Dieser besteht aus einem Grundkörper und weist eine Abstreifkante auf, die dicht an der Oberfläche des Strangförderers positioniert ist und die Tabakteilchen des Strangs vom Strangförderer abstreift, der auch, wie im Falle der genannten US-A 3 915 176, luftdurchlässig sein kann. Alle Teilchen werden auf diese Weise zum in Förderrichtung folgenden Einlauffinger und in das Format transportiert. Der Schaber unterliegt dabei einer erhöhten mechanischen Beanspruchung und hat daher eine relativ kurze Standzeit. Durch die DE 25 31 448 A1 ist ein Format einer Zigarettenstrangmaschine bekannt, über dessen Gleitfläche ein Förderband in Form eines Formatbandes gleitet. Die Gleitfläche wird von einer Vielzahl gewölbter Flächen harter, verschleißfester Hartstoffkörner als Tragkörper gebildet. Diese Gleitfläche weist erheblich bessere Gleiteigenschaften auf als eine glatte und polierte Gleitfläche. Über die Probleme der Abnahme von Tabakteilchen von einem Förderband macht diese Schrift allerdings keine Aussage.An air-permeable fabric belt is usually used as a strand conveyor used in which by the applied negative pressure or due to the mechanical pressure when compressing the Fiber strand can set tobacco particles from the strand, which is a proper handover of all particles of the strand in hinder format setup. To make sure everyone Particles of the strand, including those that have attached themselves to the strand conveyor, in the format device are delivered, it has one at its inlet end Device for stripping tobacco particles, a so-called scraper (US-A 3 915 176). This consists of a basic body and has one Scraper edge, which is positioned close to the surface of the strand conveyor and strips the tobacco particles of the strand from the strand conveyor, which also, as in the case of said US-A 3 915 176, can be permeable to air. All particles are on this way to the infeed finger following in the conveying direction and into the format transported. The scraper is subject to an increased mechanical Stress and therefore has a relatively short service life. Through DE 25 31 448 A1 is known a format of a cigarette rod machine, over the sliding surface a conveyor belt slides in the form of a format belt. The sliding surface is one Numerous curved surfaces of hard, wear-resistant hard material grains as a supporting body educated. This sliding surface has significantly better sliding properties than one smooth and polished sliding surface. On the problems of taking off tobacco particles However, this document makes no statement about a conveyor belt.

In Figur 1 ist der Formateinlauf einer Zigarettenstrangmaschine
dargestellt. Sie zeigt das Abgabeende 2 eines Saugstrangförderers
3 und eine Formateinrichtung 4 mit einem Formatbett
6, einem Einlauffinger 7 und einem Formatteil 8. Der Saugstrangförderer
3 läuft in Pfeilrichtung 11 in einem Tabakkanal
9 um und fördert einen Faserstrang aus Tabakfasern (nicht dargestellt)
von einer Strangaufbauzone (ebenfalls nicht dargestellt)
zur Abgabe an die Formateinrichtung 4. Der Faserstrang
wird hängend am Saugstrangförderer 3 im Tabakkanal 9
gefördert, wobei er mittels eines durch den Saugstrangförderer
hindurchwirkenden Saugzugs am Saugstrangförderer gehalten
wird. Das Formatbett 6 weist eine nicht näher dargestellte
Strangführungsfläche 12 auf, die einen im Querschnitt gewölbten
Strangkanal bildet, dessen Wölbungsradius in Laufrichtung
des Strangs vom Einlaufkonus 13 zum Formatteil hin kontinuierlich
abnimmt und der in einen entsprechend der gewünschten
Strangform ausgebildeten Strangkanal 14 des Formatteils 8 mündet.
Im Einlaufkonus 13, entlang der Strangführungsfläche 12
und in dem Strangkanal 14 ist ein in Pfeilrichtung 16 umlaufendes
Formatband 17 geführt, das einen Hüllmaterialstreifen
18 durch die Formateinrichtung 4 trägt. Diese Technik derartiger
Maschinen ist hinlänglich bekannt, so daß eine nähere Darstellung
und Beschreibung hier nicht erforderlich ist.In Figure 1 is the format entry of a cigarette rod machine

der Strangführungsfläche 12 des Formatbettes 6 eine den Faserstreng
weiter komprimierende und formende Strangführung bildet.The suction line conveyor converges in the area of the
Der Schaber 17 ist mittels Schrauben 18 oder anderer geeigneter
Befestigungsmittel stirnseitig am Einlauffinger 7 der
Formateinrichtung 4 befestigt. Er besteht aus einem Grundkörper
19, dessen Unterseite als Strangführungsfläche 21 ausgebildet
ist und in Einbauposition des Schabers der Strangführungsfläche
12 des Formatbettes 6 gegenüberliegt, so daß beide
Strangführungsflächen 12 und 21 einen Strangführungskanal 22
einschließen. Die Strangführungsfläche 21 ist dazu, wie die
Vorderansicht des Schabers gemäß Figur 3 zeigt, konkav gewölbt
und fluchtet mit einer Strangführungsfläche 23, die an der
Unterseite des Einlauffingers 7 ausgebildet ist. Diese Ausbildung
der Strangführungsflächen bewirkt in bekannter Weise das
Verformen des ankommenden Tabakstrangs zu einem zylindrischen
Faserstrang bei gleichzeitiger Umhüllung dieses Faserstrangs
mit dem Hüllmaterialstreifen 18.The
Die in Figur 2 dargestellte Einzelheit B zeigt einen Teil des
Formatbettes 6 und das vordere Einlaufende 24 des Schabers 17.
An diesem Einlaufende 24 des Schabers 17 ist eine Abstreifkante
26 vorgesehen, die quer zur Laufrichtung 11 des Strangförderers
3 ausgerichtet ist (vgl. Figur 3) und dicht vor der
Oberfläche des Strangförderers 3 oder an dieser anliegend positioniert
ist. In die Oberfläche der Abstreifkante 26 ist
wenigstens eine Schicht 27 eines feinkörnigen abreibfesten
Materials eingebettet. Diese Schicht 27 besteht erfindungsgemäß
aus polykristallinem Diamant und ist in eine Unterlage aus
Hartmetell eingesintert. Die Abstreifkante 26 kann auch aus
einem harten keramischen Material bestehen, in dessen Oberfläche
polykristalliner Diamant eingebettet ist. Die Diamantschicht
27 erstreckt sich an der Abstreifkante 26 über die
ganze Breite des Strangförderers 3 und nimmt auf diese Weise
zuverlässig alle Tabakfasern von dem Strangförderer 3 ab. Der
Tabakstrang wird so sehr zuverlässig und vollständig von dem
Strangförderer 3 auf den Hüllmaterialstreifen 18 übergeben.
Die Ausbildung der Abstreifkante 26 aus Hartmetall und ihre
Beschichtung mit polykristallinem Diamant erhöht die Verschleißfestigkeit
der Abstreifkante in signifikantem Maße und
verlängert dadurch deren Standzeit beträchtlich. Durch die
Verlängerung der Austauschintervalle wird somit gleichzeitig
die Wirtschaftlichkeit der Maschinennutzung erhöht.The detail B shown in Figure 2 shows part of the
