  • the present invention is based on the object another alternative for pre-portioned tobacco Self-made cigarettes by the consumer too create that is also easy to use and under Utilization of modified cigarette manufacturing machines is also relatively easy to manufacture and in particular the Tax advantage for fine cut can apply in countries where fine cutting is taxed less than a manufacturing one manufactured cigarette.
  • the tobacco product according to the invention is characterized, inter alia, by: thereby that the strand casing either loosely around the tobacco portion wrapped or overlapping along their two Longitudinal edges only slightly, especially glued in places is, and that to the outer longitudinal edge of the strand casing a handle tab to remove them.
  • Tobacco product itself characterized in that with the strand casing on any Place a grip tab firmly glued so that when train the strand cover breaks open on the grip tab near the grip tab, so she can use this before wrapping the tobacco be removed with cigarette paper.
  • This is particularly easy to manufacture, since none It must be taken into account at which point the Handle tab is attached to the strand cover.
  • the strand casing however, is preferably extreme in this embodiment thin and easy to break open. Furthermore care must of course be taken to ensure that the connection between Handle tab and strand cover is extremely tight, so that on in any case when pulling on the grip tab Strand casing breaks open and not the grip tab from the Strand casing releases.
  • the embodiments according to FIG Claim 3 needs no sticking of the strand casing.
  • the tobacco portion will solely by gluing the grip tab to the strand cover held together, with a slight gluing, in particular Pressure sensitive adhesive according to that of the well known Sticky notes are sufficient.
  • the grip tab made of relatively stiff Material has the advantage that it can be gripped safely can. In addition, there is no risk that the grip tab tears off unintentionally.
  • This advantage is particularly effective when the tobacco portion according to the invention Purpose of removing the strand casing and transferring the Tobacco in a pre-made cigarette paper tube in the Press chamber of a conventional cigarette stuffing device inserted becomes. This is done by removing the strand casing the gripping tab the movable press bar against that Tobacco product moves until there is slight pressure on it is applied. Then the protruding from the bale chamber Pull tab pulled. The strand casing is broken open and keeping the tobacco out of the bale chamber pulled out.
  • the invention Tobacco product is therefore particularly suitable in combination with conventional cigarette stuffing machines, their bale chamber pulling out the strand casing by means of it connected handle tab allowed in the manner described.
  • the tobacco product shown in Fig. 1 is used for self-production a cigarette, especially filter cigarette with the help of a conventional tamping device, e.g. out DE-C 28 33 681 is known.
  • This tobacco product exists from one of the tobacco fillings of a finished cigarette on the one hand as well as the cross-section and length of the tobacco room a preferably prefabricated cigarette paper tube on the other hand, adapted and through a strand casing 10 portion of tobacco held together 11.
  • the casing 10 is around the tobacco portion 11 in the illustrated embodiment wrapped around and overlapping along their two Longitudinal edges 12, 13 only slightly, namely point glue points 14 glued.
  • the strand casing 10 is preferably made from a non-smokable, especially not flammable material such as made of aluminum laminated Paper or plastic film. Unless they are made of flammable material should exist, it must be ensured that the Tobacco product outside of a tightly fitting wrapper of cigarette paper as such is not smokable. To this The purpose of the strand covering is over the entire length permeable to air that the tobacco product lacks traction cannot be smoked.
  • the tobacco product including the casing
  • Strand casing also be provided with additives that the Smoking causes or leaves such a bad taste, that smoking is stopped immediately.
  • the smoker So it should be induced or even forced, the strand envelope to remove before enjoying the tobacco portion, namely by means of the grip tab 15.
  • the tobacco portion 11 then either with the help of a conventional rolling paper rolling a cigarette; or the tobacco portion becomes 11 by means of a conventional cigarette stuffing device prefabricated cigarette paper tube, in particular filter cigarette paper tube, pushed.
  • the embodiment according to FIG. 2 differs from 1 in that the strand casing 10 only is loosely wrapped around the tobacco portion 11, i.e. along the overlapping longitudinal edges 12 and 13 are not is glued. These tobacco portions are held together through the grip tab 15, which is wrapped around the strand cover 10 by more than 360 °. With one end it is close to the inner longitudinal edge 12 of the strand casing 10 connected, in particular glued. Near the other End is inside, i.e. on the strand casing 10 facing Side provided a pressure sensitive adhesive layer 16 with which this end to the first mentioned end of the grip tab 15 is adhesive. As a result, the tobacco portion 11 is held together securely, without a longitudinal edge gluing the Strand cover 10 needs.
  • the grip tab is 15 integrally connected to the strand casing 10.
  • the grip tab 15 extends practically the entire length of the Strand casing 10 or tobacco portion 11.
