Definitions

  • the handling of cigarettes after their manufacture and before packaging causes special problems when packaging cigarettes.
  • the cigarette manufacturing machines (maker) produce cigarettes with high performance, e.g. sixteen thousand cigarettes a minute.
  • the relatively large number of cigarettes must be fed to the packaging machine in a reasonable manner.
  • Production-related fluctuations in performance of the cigarette manufacturing machine and the subsequent packaging machine must be taken into account. It is therefore customary to place storage devices for cigarettes in the area between these two units. Depending on the fluctuations in performance, cigarettes are fed into or released from this store.
  • So-called trays are known for the storage and transportation of cigarettes, which can be filled from their top or bottom.
  • the top of the trays is first closed by a sword, the trays are tilted by about 180 ° via an emptying station and then the tray is emptied into the emptying station. Due to this complicated handling of the trays, the size of a storage unit, to which several containers are combined, is limited.
  • FR-A-2 414 459 shows a device for storing and transporting cigarettes with a storage unit in which containers for holding the cigarettes can be filled or emptied through an opening in a substantially horizontal bottom wall.
  • the handling of such a device, in particular the emptying of the cuboid containers, is cumbersome and reduces performance.
  • the invention is based on the object of proposing a device for transporting and storing cigarettes which enables easier handling in the distribution of the stored cigarettes by using containers for holding a cigarette store.
  • the device according to the invention is characterized in that the bottom wall is pivotally mounted in the region of the opening and can be pivoted from an essentially horizontal normal position into an inclined position falling towards the opening with at least one leg falling towards the opening.
  • the pivotable arrangement of the bottom wall according to the invention in the region of the opening in particular facilitates the emptying of the containers. Due to the pivotable bottom wall, the container itself becomes a funnel, so that the cigarettes can be fed to the opening.
  • the bottom wall is initially in an inclined position that slopes towards the opening.
  • the bottom wall is pivoted from the sloping position towards the opening into the normal position. In this position results in a cuboid container. Dead spaces that cannot be used to store cigarettes are avoided.
  • the opening is preferably arranged in a central region of the bottom wall.
  • the bottom wall is divided into two pivotable legs which extend on both sides of the opening. In this way, even with a low height of the container in comparison to its longitudinal extent, a sufficient angle of inclination of the bottom wall can be realized in the sloping position that slopes toward the opening.
  • the two legs of the bottom wall can be pivoted in a particularly simple manner by means of an actuating member, in particular a pressure medium cylinder.
  • the side walls are pivotably attached to the bottom wall and, together with the latter, can be pivoted into the sloping position falling towards the opening.
  • the pivoting movement of the bottom wall and the side walls is controlled by sensors that detect the degree of filling of the container.
  • Another special feature of the invention relates to a cigarette conveyor for transporting the cigarettes from a manufacturing machine to the filling station and from the filling station to a packaging machine.
  • two separate delivery channels are used for this.
  • One conveying channel is only used to feed the cigarettes to the filling station, while a second conveying channel is only used to convey the cigarettes away from the filling station. This ensures a better, trouble-free transport of the cigarettes in the upward or downward direction without the risk of damage to the cigarettes.
  • the exemplary embodiments shown in the drawings deal with the handling of cigarettes or other elongated, rod-shaped objects. It is about storing a large number of cigarettes and transporting them in the area between a cigarette manufacturing machine and a packaging machine (neither of which is shown).
  • a storage device 10 is shown, which is connected to a cigarette conveyor 11.
  • the cigarette conveyor 11 has a first section 12 which is connected to a cigarette manufacturing machine. Furthermore, the cigarette conveyor has a secondary storage 13 and a second section 14, which is connected to a packaging machine.
  • a plurality of sensors 15 are assigned to the secondary memory 13, and these sensors detect the degree of filling of the secondary memory 13.
  • the storage unit 10 comprises a second cigarette conveyor 16, which communicates with the secondary storage 13.
  • the cigarette conveyor 16 has endless belts 17 between which the cigarettes can be conveyed to form a stream of cigarettes.
  • the cigarette conveyor 16 has a filling station 18.
  • the endless belts 17 are directed vertically.
  • a sensor 19 is arranged in the area of the filling station 18. This sensor 19 detects whether there are 17 cigarettes in the area of the filling station.
  • a storage unit 20 works together with the cigarette conveyor 16.
  • a plurality of chambers or containers 21 are attached to the storage unit 20.
  • the storage unit 20 can be moved on wheels 22. In the area between the wheels 22, a rack 23 is arranged, which interacts with a drive system 24.
  • the storage unit 20 can hereby be moved in such a way that each of the containers 21 can be moved into the filling station 18 of the cigarette conveyor 16.
  • An opening 25 is assigned to each container 21.
  • Each opening 25 can be closed by a slide 26 which is held in the closed position by a spring 46.
  • An actuating member 27 is arranged in the area of the filling station 18, e.g. a pressure medium cylinder or an electromagnet. The slide member 26 of a container 21, which is located in the area of the filling station 18, is opened by the actuating member 27.
  • Each container 21 has a large front wall 47, a large rear wall 48, a bottom wall 28 and two narrow side walls 31, 32. These walls delimit an interior space 49 open at the top for receiving the cigarettes.
  • the width of the bottom wall 28 and the side walls 31, 32 corresponds approximately to the length of the cigarettes.
  • the bottom wall 28 of the container 21 is pivotable.
  • the bottom wall 28 consists of two legs 29, 30 which are pivotally mounted in the region of the opening 25.
  • the side walls 31, 32 are pivotally attached to the legs 29, 30 of the bottom wall 28. At their upper end, the side walls 31, 32 are each between two guide rails 33 slidably and pivotably mounted. The side walls 31, 32 are thus pivoted together with the bottom wall 28 from the normal position into the V-shaped position. Actuators for pivoting the bottom wall 28 and the side walls 31, 32 are arranged below the container 21. In the present case, pressure medium cylinders 34 serve as actuators. The bottom wall 28 and the side walls 31, 32 can thereby be pivoted from the normal position (solid line) into a V-shaped position (shown in dashed lines). This makes emptying the container 21 easier.
  • a conventional sensor in the form of a chain network (not shown) monitors whether single or multiple cigarettes are wrong when filling or emptying.
  • sensors 35, 36, 37 are arranged next to the container.
  • the lowest sensor 35 detects the normal position of the bottom wall 28 and the side walls 31, 32. In this normal position, the bottom wall 28 is in a horizontal position and the side walls 31, 32 in a vertical position.
  • the remaining sensors 36, 37 serve to detect the degree of filling of the container 21.
  • the sensor 36 emits a signal when the container is partially filled to a predetermined degree and the sensor 37 emits a signal when the container 21 is completely filled.
  • Additional sensors 38, 39 are assigned to one of the pressure medium cylinders 34.
  • the lower sensor 38 is also triggered when the bottom wall 28 and the side walls 31, 32 are in the normal position. This thus confirms the signal from the sensor 35.
  • the upper sensor 39 is triggered when the bottom wall together with the side walls 31, 32 is in the V-shaped position.
  • the device described in this way works as follows: If the production machine produces more cigarettes than can be removed from the packaging machine, some of the cigarettes are conveyed away by the cigarette conveyor 16 and fed to the filling station 18. An empty or not yet completely filled container 21 is moved into the filling station 18 and the slide 26 is opened. The position of the bottom wall 28 and the side walls 31, 32 is controlled by the sensor 36. If a predetermined degree of filling of the container 21 is reached, so that the sensor 36 is triggered, the pressure medium cylinders 34 are retracted and the base wall 28 and the side walls 31, 32 are thereby pivoted into the normal position. Meanwhile, cigarettes continue to be fed into the container 21 through the filling station 18 until the sensor 37 is triggered.
  • the bottom wall 28 and the side walls 31, 32 remain in the V-shaped position while cigarettes are conveyed into the container 21 until the sensor 36 is triggered.
  • the bottom wall 28 and the side walls 31, 32 can also be in the normal position during the entire filling process.
  • the container 21 is completely filled when both the sensor 37 and the sensor 38 are triggered.
  • the direction of conveyance of the cigarette conveyor 16 is then reversed and the actuating member 27 is switched off, so that the slide 26 is displaced into the closed position by the spring force of the spring 46.
  • the cigarettes are fed into the secondary storage 13 until the sensor 19 is released. If necessary, another empty or not yet completely filled container can now be moved into the filling station 18.
  • cigarettes can be removed from the containers 21 and fed to the packaging machine.
  • a filled container 21 is moved into the area of the filling station 18 and the slide 26 is opened by the actuating member 27.
  • Cigarettes now pass through the opening 25 into the filling station 18.
  • the cigarette conveyor 16 feeds the cigarettes into the secondary storage 13 and from there to the packaging machine.
  • the emptying of the containers 21 is controlled by the sensors 15 of the secondary storage 13. Namely, the feed conveyor 16 is stopped when the secondary storage is completely filled.
  • the bottom wall 28 and the side walls 31, 32 are pivoted into the V-shaped position.
  • the container 21 can now be completely emptied.
  • the complete emptying of the container 21 is detected by the sensor 19.
  • the slide 24 is then moved by the spring 46 in the closed position and the bottom wall 28 and the side walls 31, 32 are pivoted into the normal position. This is detected by sensors 35 and 38 and, if necessary, a further, filled container 21 can be moved into the filling station 17.
  • FIG. 3 A special embodiment of the cigarette conveyor is shown in FIG. 3.
  • the cigarette conveyor 16 has two separate conveyor shafts 40 and 41.
  • the conveyor shaft 40 serves to transport the cigarettes in an upward direction, that is to say to empty a container 21.
  • the conveyor shaft 41 is used to transport the cigarettes in a downward direction, that is to say to fill a container 21
  • the endless belts 17 in the region of the conveyor shafts 40, 41 can therefore only be driven in one direction, as indicated by the arrows 42, 43 indicated. While cigarettes are fed through the feed chute 41 to the filling station 18, the endless belts 17 of the feed chute 40 stand still. The other way round, the endless belts 17 of the conveyor shaft 41 stand still when 40 cigarettes are removed from the filling station 18 through the conveyor shaft.
  • the conveyor belts 17 can be driven in both directions in accordance with the double arrow 45. This ensures a better, trouble-free transport of the cigarettes in upward and downward movements without the risk of damage to the cigarettes.
  • the spreading angle of the bottom wall 28 and the side walls 31, 32 in the V-shaped position should be 90 °, ie 45 ° with respect to the horizontal plane.
  • the filling opening 25 is arranged in an edge region of the bottom wall 28.
  • the bottom wall 28 has only one pivotable leg.
