Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coaxial filter cigarette of the type specified in the preamble of claim 1.
  • Coaxial filter cigarettes are known from the patent specification DE 39 01 226 and from the patent specification DE 37 43 597.
  • the coaxial filter cigarette according to patent specification DE 39 01 226 is a cigarette with a strand part with an inner core made of a largely residue-free smoldering material, in particular tobacco material, a wrapper for the inner core, an outer jacket coaxially surrounding the inner core or its wrapper a tobacco and / or non-tobacco material, and a covering for the outer jacket, and with a filter part with a filter core, an air-impermeable covering for the filter core, a filter jacket and an envelope for the filter jacket.
  • a largely residue-free smoldering material in particular tobacco material
  • a wrapper for the inner core an outer jacket coaxially surrounding the inner core or its wrapper a tobacco and / or non-tobacco material
  • a covering for the outer jacket and with a filter part with a filter core, an air-impermeable covering for the filter core, a filter jacket and an envelope for the filter jacket.
  • This coaxial filter cigarette has a zone of the main heat source, which is located in the inner core of the strand part, and a zone in which the major part of the aerosol entering the smoker's mouth is generated and which is located in the outer jacket of the strand part; the filter part significantly reduces the combustion gases originating from the inner core of the strand part and the smoke particles originating from the inner core largely, while the aerosol generated in the outer jacket of the strand part is influenced only slightly or not at all.
  • a coaxial cigarette with a tobacco rod with an inner core is made of a largely residue-free smoldering material, in particular tobacco material.
  • This coaxial cigarette has a casing for the inner core, an outer casing made of a tobacco and / or non-tobacco material coaxially surrounding the inner core or its casing, and a casing for the outer casing.
  • It has a ventilated coaxial filter with a filter core, the inner diameter of which corresponds approximately to the diameter of the inner core, and with a filter jacket; the filter core has an airtight covering; the filter jacket has an air-permeable covering; the coating of the inner core and the coating of the outer jacket are provided with glow salts; and the tensile resistance of the inner core is lower than the tensile resistance of the outer jacket.
  • the object of the present invention is to propose a coaxial cigarette in which other goals are sought.
  • a filter cigarette of the specified type is to be proposed, which enables further taste variations from a tobacco mixture.
  • Another significant advantage of the coaxial filter cigarette according to the present invention is the possible transfer of volatile aroma components from one of the two smoke streams separated over most of the strand part to the other smoke stream, without the substantial part of unwanted, non-volatile or non-volatile components being transferred becomes.
  • So z. B. are in the inner core of the strand part Burley Flavor Grades, whereas no Burley Grades can be contained in the periphery, but for example Flue Cured Grades and / or tobacco foil, especially extracted foil.
  • relatively high concentrations of volatile flavor and / or casing components which are not contained in the inner core, can be present in the outer jacket of the strand part. These volatile flavor and / or casing components can be partially mixed with the smoke from the inner core and thus cause special taste impressions.
  • the strand part has an inner core 102 made of a largely residue-free smoldering material, in particular tobacco material, with an air-impermeable or less porous sheath 103.
  • the air permeability of this sheath 103 is a maximum of 50 ISO units.
  • An outer jacket 104 made of a tobacco and / or non-tobacco material coaxially surrounds the inner core 102 or its casing 103.
  • the outer jacket 104 is surrounded by an air-permeable wrapper 105, generally a cigarette paper.
  • the inner core 102 and the outer jacket 104 consist of different tobacco, flavor and casing materials in all the embodiments to be described.

  • Wrapper 115 is commonly referred to as "tipping paper" or "interconnect sheets”. Below this is usually the filter wrapping paper or, briefly, the "filter wrapper". For the sake of simplicity, only the “covering” of the filter jacket 114 is referred to below.
  • the filter jacket 114 is connected to the strand part 101 by the air-impermeable covering 115 in such a way that between the filter-side end of the strand part 101 and the tobacco-side A cavity is formed at the end of the filter element 111, which forms a smoke mixing zone 120.
  • the filter core 112 and the filter jacket 114 have different filter efficiencies in all the embodiments yet to be explained, one of these two filter segments being highly effective, namely a retention rate of at least 70%, in particular at least 80%, preferably at least 90% and in an extreme case even 100 %, while the other of the two filter segments has a low effect, that is to say has a retention rate of less than 50%, preferably less than 40%.
  • the total empty volume of the strand part 101, ie inner core 102 and outer jacket 104, is at least 40% and at most 80%, while the empty volume of the two parts of the coaxial filter element 111 is at least 80%, preferably at least 90%. This information applies to all embodiments.
  • this coaxial filter cigarette 100 When this coaxial filter cigarette 100 is smoked, the different fumes from the inner core 102 and the outer jacket 104 of the strand part 101 are mixed in the smoke mixing zone 120.
  • a part of the smoke components of the stream that mainly flows into the highly effective segment 112, 114 of the filter element 111 is mixed into the smoke that flows into the less effective segment 112, 114 of the filter element 111.
  • the smoke mixture from the smoke mixing zone 120 then flows through the coaxial filter element 111, on the one hand it being locally filtered and on the other hand ventilation air is supplied to it through the ventilation zone 116 in the air-impermeable casing 115 for the filter jacket 114.
  • the ventilation zone 116 is formed by a line of punctiform ventilation openings that extend extend over the circumference of the coaxial filter element 111.
  • the coaxial strand part 101 is used for smoke and / or steam generation and has a length that corresponds to the usual dimensions of conventional cigarettes.
  • the axial length of the smoke mixing zone 120 is at least 0.2 mm, preferably about 0.5 mm; the axial length should not exceed about 1 mm.
  • the axially sectioned coaxial filter cigarette shown in FIG. 2 is designated by the general reference number 200.
  • the other reference numerals correspond to the reference numerals which were used in FIG. 1, with the exception of the first number 2, which indicates the second embodiment.
  • the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 has a strand part 201 and a coaxial filter element 211.
  • the inner core 202 of the strand part 201 consists of a largely residue-free smoldering material, in particular tobacco material, with an air-impermeable or less porous covering 203 for the inner core 202.
  • the air permeability of the covering 203 should not exceed 50 ISO units.
  • An outer jacket 204 coaxially surrounds the inner core 202 or its casing 203, consists of a tobacco and / or non-tobacco material and is surrounded by an air-permeable casing 205.
  • the coaxial filter element 211 has a filter core 212 with an air-impermeable covering 213.
  • a filter jacket 214 coaxially surrounds the filter core 212 or its covering 213.
  • the diameter of the filter jacket 214 corresponds to the diameter of the outer jacket 204 of the strand part 201.
  • the filter jacket 214 has an air-impermeable covering 215, which also serves to connect the strand part 201 and the filter element 211.
  • a ventilation zone 216 is provided in the airtight envelope 215 for the filter jacket 214.
  • the sheath 203 of the inner core 202 of the strand part 201 has a perforation zone at its filter-side end. This perforation zone creates a smoke mixing zone 220 in this transition area, in which the smoke from the outer jacket 204 and the inner core 202 of the strand part 201 can mix.
  • the smoke mixing zone 220 can be created by mechanical perforation or by laser perforation of the casing 203.
  • the smoke from the inner core 202 largely flows directly into the filter core 212 of the coaxial filter element 216; in the same way a part, usually the majority of the smoke from the outer jacket 204 flows directly into the filter jacket 214.
  • a part of the components from the smoke of the outer jacket 204 namely in particular the volatile components, flow through the perforation zone in the casing 203 of the Inner core 202 of the strand part 201 in the inner core 202 and mix when smoking the cigarette in the smoke mixing zone 220 before they flow into the coaxial filter element 211, where they are filtered in a targeted manner.
  • Ventilation air also penetrates through the ventilation zone 216 into the filter and mixes in the filter jacket 214 with the smoke mixture from the smoke mixing zone 220.
  • the ventilation zone 216 is formed from a line of punctiform ventilation openings which extend through the circumference of the coaxial filter element 211 through the otherwise extend airtight envelope 215.
  • the axially sectioned coaxial filter cigarette shown in FIG. 3 has the general reference number 400.
  • the other reference numbers otherwise correspond to the reference numbers from FIG. 1 including the smoke mixing zone 420, only the first number "1" being replaced by a "4", so that the individual parts should not be explained again.
  • the strand part 401 can be shifted within given markings (not shown) on the cigarette paper in the protruding edge of the wrapper 415, as a result of which the gap between the filter-side end of the strand part 401 and the tobacco-side end of the coaxial filter element 411 and thus the smoke mixing zone 420 is enlarged or reduced accordingly.
  • a smoke admixture ratio desired by the smoker can be set as desired by varying the axial length of the smoke mixing zone 420 and thus the “mixing section”, that is to say the section over which the smoke streams from the two segments of the strand part 401 can mix .
  • FIG. 4 shows an axial cross section through a coaxial filter cigarette, which is generally indicated by the reference number 500.
  • the reference numerals correspond again to the reference numerals of the preceding figures, with the exception of the first digit.
  • the cigarette according to this fourth embodiment consists of a coaxial strand part 501 and a coaxial filter element 511.
  • the strand part has an inner core 502 made of a largely residue-free smoldering material, in particular tobacco material, with an air-impermeable or less porous covering 503 for the inner core.
  • the air permeability of the envelope 503 is a maximum of 50 ISO units.
  • An outer jacket 504 made of a tobacco and / or non-tobacco material coaxially surrounds the inner core 502 or its casing 503.
  • the outer jacket 504 is surrounded by an air-permeable sheath 505.
  • the coaxial filter element 511 has a filter core 512 with an air-impermeable covering 513.
  • a filter jacket 514 coaxially surrounds the filter core 512 or its casing 513.
  • the diameter of the filter jacket 514 corresponds to the diameter of the outer jacket 504 of the strand part 501
  • Filter jacket 514 has an air-impermeable covering 515, which also serves to connect the strand part 501 and the coaxial filter element 511.
  • a ventilation zone 516 is located in the air-impermeable casing 515 for the filter jacket 514.
  • the ventilation and thus the smoke mixture can be set in two ways:
  • a rotatable ring 507 which has perforations in sections in the radial direction, surrounds the coaxial filter element 511 and the strand part 501.
  • the ventilation zone 506 of the strand part 501 likewise only has perforations in sections in the radial direction.
  • a ring 507 which can be pushed in the axial direction over the ventilation zone of the strand part 501, surrounds the outer jacket 515 of the filter element 511. This allows the ventilation zone 506 of the strand part 501 to be partially or completely covered, as a result of which the ventilation ratio can be adjusted by the smoker .
  • a smoke mixing zone 520 is located in the tobacco-side part of the filter core 512, the fumes of the outer shell 504 and the inner core 502 of the strand part 501 in the filter core 512 being mixed here.
  • the two smoke streams coming from the branch part 501 can be influenced and also adjusted by varying the ventilation, as explained, so that the smoke from one branch segment is admixed to the smoke from the other segment depending on the set degree of ventilation.
  • the ratio of the two smoke streams is "detuned” and the smoke balance changes, which can cause certain taste nuances.
