Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for treating a filter tow strip during its continuous cross-sectional gathering within a guide channel, which is subsequently encased in a filter tow strand with the purpose of forming a filter strand with a wrapping strip from which filter rods are cut off, compressed gas being blown into the filter tow strips during gathering. which exits the gathering area downstream in an air outlet zone through channels.
  • the invention also relates to a device for treating a filter tow strip, with a guide channel, the cross section of which decreases in order to gather the strip and which has an inlet for supplying a gas under pressure and a downstream air outlet zone for discharging the air blown into the filter tow.
  • filter tow is understood to mean a fleece made from a large number of crimped synthetic staple fibers and / or filaments, which, for. B. consists of cellulose acetate, staple fibers and / or filaments.
  • guide channel is understood to mean a channel referred to in the technique of filter production by means of strand machines as a "finger” with a cross section that decreases in the conveying direction in order to gather the filter tow conveyed in the channel and to reduce its cross section until the strand cross section is approximately reached.
  • upstream and downstream are based on the conveying direction of the filter tow as the "current".
  • the device mentioned at the outset is characterized in that downstream the air outlet zone another inlet for supplying a gas under pressure in the guide channel and a further air outlet zone for discharging the into the Filtertow air is provided from the guide channel.
  • the surprising advantage of the method and the device according to the invention is that the homogeneity of the filter rods is still significantly improved is, as the comparison photos of Figures 5 and 6 show.
  • FIG. 1 shows an arrangement by the applicant for processing filter tow, which preferably consists of cellulose acetate, which is known under the name AF in the tobacco processing industry.
  • a strip 3 is drawn from a bale 1 of strips of filter tow made of cellulose acetate lying one above the other from a driven roller pair 2, for example consisting of a grooved roller and a rubber roller acting against it, dissolved and spread by an air nozzle 4, guided over a roller 6 and by a further air nozzle 7 spread further and loosened up.
  • a towed, ie non-driven pair of brake rollers 8 retains the web 9 formed from spread threads of filter tow somewhat.
  • a spraying device 12 Downstream of the pair of rollers 11 is a spraying device 12 in which droplets of liquid plasticizer 13, e.g. B. triazetin, are sprayed from below by means of a rotating brush 14 onto the threads of the web 9 guided in one plane from tow material.
  • liquid plasticizer 13 e.g. B. triazetin
  • the web 9 After deflection by a further driven pair of rollers 16, the web 9, while reducing its width, passes through a nozzle 17 which is pressurized with compressed air and has a compressed air connection 17a to an inlet funnel 18 of a subsequent filter rod machine KDF, not shown, for. B. of the type known in the tobacco processing industry type KDF2 or KDF3 of the applicant.
  • the arrows 19 indicate the direction of movement of the web 9.
  • the funnel 18 is followed by a so-called format device 20, which has a guide channel 21 for the filter tow (hereinafter referred to as "finger" for short) with a decreasing cross-section, so that the filter tow is continuously gathered up when it is conveyed by narrowing the cross-section until it is approximately the same Cross section of a filter rod required in the tobacco processing industry for the manufacture of filter cigarettes.
  • the filter tow is pulled by the so-called format belt 22, which is fed together with a wrapping strip 24 (eg paper strip) via a deflection roller 23, through the format device 20.
  • a wrapping strip 24 eg paper strip
  • the paper strip 24 glued on one edge is placed around the filter tow strand and then a filter strand is formed in a known manner, not shown, from which the individual filter rods are cut off.
  • a filter strand is formed in a known manner, not shown, from which the individual filter rods are cut off.
  • the inlet part is shown with the finger 21.
  • the other parts of a format device such as gluing chamber and the like are not shown since they are not affected by the invention.
  • Figures 2 to 4 show a conveyor channel 21, in practice also called "finger", which narrows in the direction of arrow 19, ie the cross section of which continuously decreases. This also reduces the cross section of the filter tow strip, except for the thickness of the filter strand.
  • the format tape 22 is shown only schematically in FIG. 2 as a floor tape, although in reality it is arched up on both sides of the finger 21 and would thereby partially cover the finger. This part of the format tape is therefore omitted.
  • Compressed air at, for example, 3 bar is supplied at a first air inlet 26 and flows into the interior of the finger 21 and the filter tow moved through through slot-like channels 28 provided in the wall 27 in three rows.
  • the angle at which the air flows out of the wall 27 can be between 10 ° and 30 °, based on the longitudinal axis of the finger, for example 20 °, so that the filter material receives a conveying component through the air.
  • the blown-in air can emerge from the finger 21 through an air outlet zone 29 designed as a sieve.
  • the outlet channels 31 in the outlet zone are of the same size and in the exemplary embodiment have an approximately circular shape with a diameter of approximately 0.5 to 1.5 mm, e.g. B. of about 1 mm.
  • the outlet channels can also have other shapes and dimensions.
  • the air outlet zone 29 Downstream from the air outlet zone 29 there is another air inlet 32, through which compressed air of, for example, 2 bar is supplied, which flows into the interior of the finger 21 and the filter tow guided therein through slot-like channels 33 provided in the wall 27 in three rows. Its fibers are swirled again, which has a positive effect on the homogeneity of the filter rods produced.
  • the angle at which the air flows out of the wall 27 can likewise again be approximately 10 ° to 30 °, based on the longitudinal axis of the finger, for example approximately 20 °.
  • the further blown-in air can escape from the finger 21 through a further downstream air outlet zone 34 which is designed in the form of a sieve.
  • the outlet channels 36 can have the same shape and dimensions as the outlet channels 31. The relatively small dimensions of the outlet channels are advantageous because practically no fibers pass out of the filter tow to the outside.
  • the pressure of the supplied air can exceed or fall below the specified values.
  • Figure 5 shows the distribution of filter tow in an open filter rod, which in a Device had been produced according to EP-B1-0269915. You can see that the distribution is non-uniform and has two bead-shaped thickenings 41, 42, between which there is a zone 43 with less material.
  • FIG. 6 shows the distribution of filter tow material in an open filter rod was produced according to the invention. You can see a very homogeneous distribution of the filter tow 44 over practically the entire area, which for a better The quality of the filter rod is the cause.
