- the conveyor lines connect two transmission stations in pairs above described type with a magazine of a processing machine.
- This system has one Series of sensors for detecting fault conditions and for generating fault signals on. This controls whether the sealing shoe or sealing block is opened, whether the Coupling disengages due to overload, whether the stock in the magazine is replenished, whether rods in enter the delivery line or whether there is a backlog in the delivery line.
- the invention has for its object a method and a device of the beginning to further improve the described type.
- the aim is to prevent sheared off Parts of a filter through the pneumatic conveyor line in the further production process get there and cause major interference.
- this object is achieved according to the invention solved in that the movement of the recording through the launch zone longitudinal axial movement of the filter from the intake into the delivery line is monitored and that an interference signal is generated if a filter within the recording in question has not completely left a predetermined time interval. When an interference signal occurs immediately the transverse axial movement of the conveyor stopped.
- the entry of a Admission to the launch zone and exit from the launch zone detected.
- the time of entry gives the start and the time of exit before the end of the time interval, in which a filter on launching its inclusion in the transfer conveyor must have left the error-free Transport the filter from the intake to the delivery line guarantee.
- the Method according to the invention when firing a filter successively the transition of the front and the rear End of filter from the intake in the delivery line and corresponding transition signals are formed, and there is an interference signal formed if not the times of both transition signals within the time interval specified for the launch lie.
- Claims 7 and 8 contain preferred arrangements of the monitoring means by which the longitudinal axial movement the filter from the recordings in the delivery line is monitored becomes.
- the arrangement of the monitoring means in the sealing block is particularly beneficial because it is very accurate in this way in the transition area between the rotating transmission drum and the mouth of the delivery line can be installed.
- the Claims 9 to 11 contain features of an embodiment of the Device with which the movement of the individual recordings through the launch zone and that for the axial movement the time interval available for the filter rods during firing is specified.
- Claims 12 to 15 relate to Features of the device proposed according to the invention, the enable advantageous use of the interference signals that occur. This makes shearing insufficiently shot Filter rods avoided and it is achieved that in the transition between the transfer conveyor and the mouth of the conveyor line stuck filters are automatically removed.
- the main advantage of the invention is that in disturbances occurring at the transmitting station can be detected immediately and they can be remedied automatically. It is through the return rotation of the transfer conveyor when it occurs Disorder ensured that a rotating between the Transfer conveyor and the stationary mouth of the line jammed filter is released and easily blown out can be. The quick detection and elimination of faults ensures a high transfer rate of the pneumatic Funding arrangement. This ensures that none are sheared off Filter parts get into the delivery line and the operation of the following machines. That will be with little technical effort achieved.

- a sensor 52 in the sealing body 41 of the sealing block 23 for example in the form of a reflection light barrier, arranged, the movement of a filter rod 3 during the Shot in the delivery line 21 detected.
- This sensor 52 5 is connected to a control arrangement 53, which can be the machine control.
- the conveyor drum 1 are, as in Figure 2 schematically as an embodiment shown, two position detectors 54 and 56, for example in the form of proximity initiators, which can also be integrated in the sealing block Position detectors 54 and 56 are also in accordance with FIG Control arrangement 53 connected.
- Figure 1 shows in the area of the inlet end of the conveyor line 21 a compressed air connection connected to the compressed air source 57, for introducing blow-back air into the delivery line serves.
- Figure 1 shows the sealing block in its working position, in the its sealing surface 24 rests on the support bushings 19 and 26 and thereby the recordings 2 located in the launch zone Z Seals conveyor drum 1 to the outside.
- a dashed line Line 58 is the bottom position, the maintenance position, of the Sealing block 23 indicated.
- a cleaning nozzle 59 aligned with the pressure source 43 connected is.
- the conveying air connection 51 is the Compressed air connection 57 and the cleaning nozzle 59 via valves 61 to 63 connected to the compressed air source, so that the corresponding Compressed air supply is controllable.
- electrical connection lines in the scheme of Figure 5 with a simple line and pneumatic lines are marked with double lines.
- the free ending arrows at valves 61 to 63 make the connections to the Consumers 51, 57 and 59.
- the sealing block becomes 23 from its lower, for example for cleaning reasons Maintenance position 58 raised to its working position, in which its sealing surface, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, bears sealingly against the support bushings 19 and 26.

- the Firing a filter rod 3 from a receptacle 2 of the conveyor can begin when the recording is relative to the mouth opening 67 of the pneumatic delivery line that shown in Figure 3 relative position. At that moment, cursed the filter rod 3 with the mouth opening and can freely from the Recording 2 can be moved into the mouth opening 67.
- the longitudinal axial Movability of a filter rod 3 ends when the recording 2 of the rotating conveyor relative to the mouth opening 67 has reached the position shown in FIG. 4, in which a filter rod that has not yet completely left the recording has between the rotating conveyor drum and the mouth the stationary delivery line is pinched.
- the two initiators 54 and 56 specify a time interval T (FIG. 6), in which a receptacle 2 is aligned with the opening 67 of the conveying line during the rotation of the conveying drum 1 so that a longitudinally axial movement of the filter rod into the conveying line is possible.
- the initiators are set on the front flank surface 69 of the webs 6. When this flank surface 69 is detected by the initiator 54 at time t1, which is shown in FIG. 3, it forms a first position signal P1, which indicates that a receptacle 2 with the filter rod 3 conveyed therein is now aligned with the opening 67 of the delivery line and the launch can take place.
- the same flank surface 69 is detected by the second initiator 56 at time t 2 , it forms a second position signal P 2 , which indicates that the recording has now emerged from the firing zone Z to such an extent that a further longitudinal axial movement of the filter rod is no longer possible .
- time t 1 of the first and time t 2 of the second position signal lies the time interval T (FIG. 6a) in which the longitudinal axial movement of the filter from the holder into the delivery line is possible.
- the sensor detects 52 ( Figure 1), the transition from the transversely axially moving receptacle 2 to the stationary mouthpiece 22 of the Delivery line 21 is assigned, the longitudinal axial movement of the Filters 3 at launch. It creates the beginning and the end the filter passage through the detection range of the sensor indicating transition signal S, its timing and duration checked by the control arrangement 53 relative to the time interval T. becomes. The normal case is shown in FIG. 6b and in FIG. that the 3 operation runs smoothly.
- the longitudinal axial Filter movement from the receptacle past the sensor 52 into the Delivery line, which is indicated by the transition signal S lies fully in the time interval T; the filter leaves the recording completely while the shot passes through the launch zone Z.
- Figures 6c and 6d show the signal curves in the event of a fault.
- transition signal S of the sensor 52 is not completely in predetermined time interval T ( Figure 6c), it means that the filter is still in the transition area between the recording and the mouth 22 of the delivery line 21 is when the Recording leaves the launch zone Z (see also Figure 4).
- the control arrangement 53 emits an interference signal which momentarily stops the drum drive 8 and the conveyor drum 1 before the drum and Clogged filter mouth of the delivery line is sheared and filter fragments get into the delivery line.
- the control arrangement 53 controls the motor 3, whereby the Transmitter drum is turned back by a small angle and releases the jammed filter. If the filter is OK, he can now continue from the recording flowing conveying air can be moved into the conveying line 21 ( Figure 6c), which eliminates the problem quickly.
- the control arrangement switches 53 the valves 61 and 62, so switches the Conveying air from and the blow-back air through port 57, so that the filter is moved back into the holder.
- the sealing block 23 is moved into the lowered maintenance position 58 and its sealing surface 24 by means of a compressed air flow from the Blown cleaning nozzle 59, with the filter blown out be dropped into a collecting container, not shown.
- the Actuation of the sealing block drives 38 and switching the Cleaning air valves 63 are also dependent from the interference signal by the control arrangement 53.
