Abstract

The speeds are reduced in the paths for the part-rows. At the end, the articles to form the flow are laid over each other to form the multiple layers in the flow, and are then discharged on a dump drum. The handling assembly may comprise brake systems (17,39,22,41,28,42) for the articles in the part rows (8,9,11). A discharge conveyor (47) receives the flow (50) of overlaid part rows.

Under the term
Figure 00010001
Articles "of the tobacco processing industry are understood to mean cigarettes, cigarillos or cigars with and without filters, as well as filter rods. The articles can have a circular shape in cross sections perpendicular to their longitudinal axes, or they can have deviating (eg oval) shapes.
Under a multilayered stream "means moving article configurations that have two or more articles lying one above the other.

Artikel der tabakverarbeitenden Industrie, insbesondere Zigaretten und Filterstäbe, werden nach ihrer Herstellung im allgemeinen in einlagigen Reihen abgegeben, während sie in Mulden von entsprechenden Förderern, z. B. Trommeln, liegen und in einer Richtung quer zu ihren Längsachsen bewegt werden. Da die Geschwindigkeiten solcher Reihen hoch sind, werden die Artikel der einlagigen Reihen meist in einen Strom überführt, in dem mehrere Lagen von Artikeln dicht an dicht nebeneinander sowie übereinanderliegen. Entsprechend geringer ist die Geschwindigkeit der Artikel in dem Strom, in dem sie zur Weiterverarbeitung, z. B. zur Verpackung, gefördert werden, und um so geringer ist die Gefahr von Beschädigungen beim Transport. Einen kritischen Bereich stellt der Übergang zwischen der Förderung in einer einlagigen Reihe und in einem Strom dar, also der Aufbau des Artikelstromes, weil hier die Gefahr besteht, daß die Zigaretten beschädigt werden oder ihre achsparallele Formation verlassen, was zu Förderstörungen führen kann.
Die der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe besteht in einer schonenden und sicheren Überführung der in einer einlagigen Reihe zugeförderten Artikel in einen mehrlagigen Artikelstrom.
Gemäß der Erfindung wird dies dadurch erreicht, daß die Geschwindigkeiten der auf getrennten Bahnen in Teilreihen geförderten Artikel vermindert und die Artikel anschließend zur Bildung des Stromes in mehreren Schichten übereinandergelegt und abgefördert werden.
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind den untergeordneten Verfahrensansprüchen zu entnehmen.Articles of the tobacco processing industry, in particular cigarettes and filter rods, are generally released in single-layer rows after they have been produced, while they are fed into troughs by appropriate conveyors, e.g. B. drums, lie and are moved in a direction transverse to their longitudinal axes. Since the speeds of such rows are high, the articles of the single-layer rows are usually transferred into a stream in which several layers of articles lie side by side and one above the other. The speed of the articles in the stream in which they are processed for further processing, e.g. B. to be promoted for packaging, and the less the risk of damage during transport. A critical area is the transition between the promotion in a single-layer row and in a stream, i.e. the development of the article stream, because here there is a risk that the cigarettes will be damaged or leave their axis-parallel formation, which can lead to production disruptions.
The object on which the invention is based consists in a gentle and safe transfer of the articles fed in a single-layer row into a multi-layer article flow.
According to the invention, this is achieved in that the speeds of the articles conveyed on separate tracks in partial rows are reduced and the articles are then superimposed and removed to form the stream in several layers.
Further advantageous refinements and developments of the invention can be found in the subordinate method claims.

Die eingangs genannte Vorrichtung ist gekennzeichnet durch Bremsanordnungen für die Artikel der Teilreihen und einen Abförderer für den aus übereinandergelegten Teilreihen gebildeten Strom.
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind den untergeordneten Vorrichtungsansprüchen zu entnehmen.The device mentioned at the outset is characterized by braking arrangements for the articles of the partial rows and a discharge conveyor for the current formed from superimposed partial rows.
Further advantageous refinements and developments of the invention can be found in the subordinate device claims.

Die Erfindung ist insofern vorteilhaft, als die einlagige Reihe der mit hoher Geschwindigkeit zugeförderten Artikel zunächst in Teilreihen aufgeteilt wird, worauf die Artikel während ihrer Förderung in den Teilreihen abgebremst werden, bevor sie zur Bildung des mit langsamerer Geschwindigkeit bewegten Artikelstromes abgefördert werden. The invention is advantageous in that the single-ply series of high speed supplied articles is first divided into partial rows, whereupon the articles during their Subsidies in the sub-series are slowed down before they form the slower rate Speed of moving article stream are removed.

Die Erfindung wird anhand der Zeichnung beispielsweise näher erläutert.The invention is explained in more detail with reference to the drawing, for example.

Eine einlagige Reihe 1 ovaler Zigaretten 2 gleichen Abstandes wird von einer mit Mulden 3 zur Aufnahme der Zigaretten versehenen Fördertrommel 4 entsprechend dem Pfeil 6 von einer nicht dargestellten Zigarettenherstellmaschine zu einer Überführungsstation 7 gefördert. Die Zigaretten 2 werden vorteilhaft in bekannter Weise von Saugluft in den Mulden 3 gehalten. An der Überführungsstation 7 werden aus der Zigarettenreihe 1 mehrere, im vorliegenden Fall drei Teilreihen 8, 9 und 11 gebildet. Hierzu nimmt eine erste Teilreihentrommel 12 mit Mulden 13, deren Abstände voneinander dreimal so groß sind wie die Abstände der Mulden 3, eine erste Teilreihe 8 mit der im Abnahmezeitpunkt gezeigten Zigarette und der dritten, sechsten, neunten usw. folgenden Zigaretten ab und führt sie gemäß Pfeil 16 zu einer ersten Rampe 17. Die Mulden 13 sind mit jeweils einer Bohrung 14 versehen, durch die Saugluft von einem ringförmigen Unterdruckkanal 15 zum Grund der Mulden 13 führbar ist, so daß die Zigaretten 2 von Saugluft aus den Mulden 3 in die Mulden 13 übernommen werden können. Hierzu überwiegt der Unterdruck in den Mulden 13 denjenigen in den Mulden 3 oder letzterer wird durch eine bekannte nicht dargestellte Steuerung im Übergabezeitpunkt weggeschaltet.A single-layer row 1 of oval cigarettes 2 of the same distance is separated from one with troughs 3 for receiving the cigarette provided conveyor drum 4 according to the arrow 6 of a cigarette manufacturing machine, not shown, is conveyed to a transfer station 7. The cigarettes 2 are advantageously sucked air in the depressions 3 in a known manner held. At the transfer station 7, the cigarette row 1 becomes several, in the present case Case three sub-rows 8, 9 and 11 formed. To do this, take a first partial row drum 12 with troughs 13, the distances between which are three times as large as the distances the troughs 3, a first partial row 8 with the cigarette shown at the time of acceptance and the third, sixth, ninth, etc. following cigarettes and feeds them according to arrow 16 a first ramp 17. The troughs 13 are each provided with a bore 14 through the suction air can be guided from an annular vacuum duct 15 to the bottom of the troughs 13 is, so that the cigarettes 2 of suction air from the troughs 3 in the troughs 13 taken can be. For this purpose, the negative pressure in the troughs 13 outweighs that in the troughs 3 or the latter is by a known control, not shown, at the time of transfer switched off.

Die erste, vierte, siebte usw. folgenden Zigaretten werden als zweite Teilreihe 9 von Mulden 18 einer zweiten Teilreihentrommel 19 abgenommen und gemäß Pfeil 21 zu einer zweiten Rampe 22 gefördert. Die Mulden 18 sind auch hier wieder mit Bohrungen 23 versehen, die während der Förderung der Zigaretten der zweiten Teilreihe 9 mit einem ringförmigen Unterdruckkanal 24 in Verbindung stehen, so daß die Zigaretten der zweiten Teilreihe 9 durch Saugluft aus den Mulden 3 in die Mulden 13 übernommen und dort während ihrer weiteren Förderung gehalten werden können.
Die zweite, fünfte, achte usw. folgenden Zigaretten werden als dritte Teilreihe 11 von Mulden 25 einer dritten Teilreihentrommel 26 abgenommen und gemäß Pfeil 27 zu einer dritten Rampe 28 gefördert. Die Mulden 25 sind auch hier wieder mit Bohrungen 29 versehen, die während der Förderung der Zigaretten der dritten Teilreihe 11 mit einem ringförmigen Unterdruckkanal 31 in Verbindung stehen, so daß die Zigaretten der dritten Teilreihe 11 durch Saugluft aus den Mulden 3 in die Mulden 25 übernommen und dort während ihrer weiteren Förderung gehalten werden können.
Die Geschwindigkeiten der Mulden der Teilreihentrommeln 12, 19 und 26 ist gleich den Geschwindigkeiten der Mulden der Trommel 4.
Wenn die Zigaretten der ersten, zweiten und dritten Teilreihen 8 bzw. 9 bzw. 11 an den zugehörigen Rampen 17 bzw. 22 bzw. 28 angelangt sind, verschwindet die Wirkung der Saugluft an den Bohrungen 14 bzw. 23 bzw. 29, so daß die Zigaretten sich infolge der Schwerkraft die Rampen herabbewegen können, was durch Pfeile 32 bzw. 33 bzw. 34 verdeutlicht wird. An die Rampen 17, 22, 28 grenzen Unterdruckräume 36 bzw. 37 bzw. 38 an, die mit den Rampenoberflächen über Schlitze oder Bohrungen 39 bzw. 41 bzw. 42 in Verbindung stehen und infolge der durchströmenden Saugluft die Zigaretten auf ihrem Weg nach unten abbremsen, d. h. ihre Geschwindigkeit verringern. Die Unterdruckräume 36, 37, 38 stehen über Leitungen 43 bzw. 44 bzw. 46 mit einer nicht dargestellten bekannten Unterdruckquelle in Verbindung.The first, fourth, seventh, etc. following cigarettes are removed as troughs 18 from troughs 18 of a second sub-row drum 19 and conveyed to a second ramp 22 according to arrow 21. The troughs 18 are again provided with bores 23, which are connected to an annular vacuum channel 24 during the conveyance of the cigarettes of the second row 9, so that the cigarettes of the second row 9 are taken into the troughs 13 by suction air from the troughs 3 and can be held there during their further funding.
The second, fifth, eighth, etc. following cigarettes are removed as a third partial row 11 from troughs 25 of a third partial row drum 26 and conveyed to a third ramp 28 according to arrow 27. The troughs 25 are again provided with bores 29, which are connected to an annular vacuum channel 31 during the conveyance of the cigarettes of the third row 11, so that the cigarettes of the third row 11 are taken into the troughs 25 by suction air from the troughs 3 and can be held there during their further funding.
The speeds of the troughs of the partial row drums 12, 19 and 26 are equal to the speeds of the troughs of the drum 4.
When the cigarettes of the first, second and third sub-rows 8 or 9 or 11 have reached the associated ramps 17 or 22 or 28, the effect of the suction air on the holes 14 or 23 or 29 disappears, so that the Cigarettes can move down the ramps due to gravity, which is illustrated by arrows 32, 33 and 34. Vacuum spaces 36, 37 and 38 adjoin the ramps 17, 22, 28, which are connected to the ramp surfaces via slots or bores 39, 41 and 42 and, due to the suction air flowing through them, brake the cigarettes on their way down , ie reduce their speed. The vacuum spaces 36, 37, 38 are connected via lines 43, 44 and 46 to a known vacuum source, not shown.

Die die erste Rampe 17 herabrutschenden und dabei gebremsten Zigaretten der ersten Teilreihe 8 gelangen auf ein Förderband 47, das über zwei Rollen 48, 49 geführt ist, von denen eine angetrieben ist. Die Zigaretten bilden auf dem Förderband 47 einen Strom aus beispielsweise drei Lagen. Auf diese Lagen werden die die zweite Rampe 22 unter Bremsung herabrutschenden Zigaretten in weiteren Lagen abgelegt. Das gleiche gilt für die die dritte Rampe 28 herabrutschenden Zigaretten. Sämtliche Zigaretten auf dem Förderband 47 bilden somit einen mehrlagigen bewegten Strom 50 aus Zigaretten, dessen Fördergeschwindigkeit nur einen Bruchteil der Geschwindigkeit beträgt, mit dem die Zigaretten 2 auf der Fördertrommel 4 herangefördert werden.
Die Geschwindigkeit des Förderbandes 47 kann in bekannter Weise durch Taster 51, 52 erfolgen, die die Höhen der Lagen abtasten und in Abhängigkeit davon den Antrieb des Förderbandes so steuern, daß die Artikelhöhe auf dem Förderband zumindest annähernd konstant bleibt.The cigarettes of the first partial row 8 which slide down and are braked down the first ramp 17 arrive on a conveyor belt 47 which is guided over two rollers 48, 49, one of which is driven. The cigarettes form a stream of, for example, three layers on the conveyor belt 47. The cigarettes sliding down the second ramp 22 under braking are placed in these positions in further positions. The same applies to the cigarettes sliding down the third ramp 28. All cigarettes on the conveyor belt 47 thus form a multi-layer moving stream 50 of cigarettes, the conveying speed of which is only a fraction of the speed at which the cigarettes 2 are conveyed up on the conveying drum 4.
The speed of the conveyor belt 47 can be done in a known manner by buttons 51, 52 which scan the heights of the layers and, depending on this, control the drive of the conveyor belt in such a way that the article height on the conveyor belt remains at least approximately constant.
