Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for collecting rod-shaped articles the tobacco processing industry and for transferring the articles into a container, with a conveyor for conveying the articles in a direction transverse to their longitudinal axes to a room in which a defined amount of articles accumulated and with a transfer device for transferring the quantity of articles into Direction of the longitudinal axes of the article from the room into a container.
  • a device for collecting rod-shaped articles the tobacco processing industry and for transferring the articles into a container, with a conveyor for conveying the articles in a direction transverse to their longitudinal axes to a room in which a defined amount of articles accumulated and with a transfer device for transferring the quantity of articles into Direction of the longitudinal axes of the article from the room into a container.
  • a transfer device for transferring the quantity of articles into Direction of the longitudinal axes of the article from the room into a container.
  • Cigarettes made from tobacco or other smoking material, with and without a filter, in particular but understood filter rods made from a wrapper (e.g. paper) surrounded filter material (e.g. cellulose acetate).
  • a wrapper e.g. paper
  • filter material e.g. cellulose acetate
  • Filter rods are often filled into containers after they have been produced. Such containers can be shipping boxes in which the filter rods are shipped. You can but also intermediate containers, so-called trays, into which the filter rods are placed Factories filled in at their manufacturing facilities and then to production be emptied again by filter cigarettes. In both cases, it is desirable that To keep the number of items in the containers as constant as possible; also a honeycomb pattern by offset of the individual rows of cigarettes half a diameter compared to the rows of items adjacent above and below and the smoothest possible horizontal surface of the total amount Articles can be reached in a container.
  • a sliding arrangement is provided, which before Actuation of the transfer device one or more of the upper article layers shifts in the axial direction such that this is a temporary support for the form further supplied articles.
  • a tray filler 1 is shown, the rod-shaped article of tobacco processing industry, especially filter rods (or also cigarettes) transverse to their longitudinal axes in a mass flow 5 between two bands 2 and 3 are supplied.
  • the rod-shaped articles A are not shown in FIGS. 2 to 4 Reality is represented correspondingly close together, but at a distance from each other thus the function of the construction elements described below better is understandable.
  • At the end of the mass flow 5 there is a flexible membrane 4, which rests on the articles and is in accordance with the article quantity 6 in a deflection zone 7 moves up and down.
  • Photocells 8, 9 and 11 provide in a well-known Way by controlling the belts 2 and 3 for the supply of the correct amount of articles per unit of time.
  • the inlet area widens below the deflection zone 7 12 of the tray filler 1 by means of diverging walls 13, 14 to about Width of the container 16 into which the articles are to be filled.
  • the containers can be open slates. But they can also be other containers, e.g. B. so-called Shipping boxes.
  • the side walls of the container 16 are 16a, 16b, the Back labeled 16c.
  • the inlet area 12 corresponds to fillers of the Applicant of the type HCF known in the cigarette industry.
  • the shaft 17 thus represents a room in which a defined amount of articles is accumulated. From this room Defined article quantities are to be placed in the container in the direction of the longitudinal axes 16 are transferred.
  • a bottom plate 21 having troughs is attached lateral trough bands 22, 23 is attached, corresponding to the supply of articles lowered by means of bands 2 and 3 (details in FIGS. 2a and 3a).
  • the one or more article layers A1 axially by a certain amount shifts that the items above it during the transfer of the item formation and the container change on the shifted item position and one Place part of the sliding arrangement on it and prevent it from sliding down can.
  • a sliding bar 41 is used, in which bolts 42 are fastened, which by Springs 43 are surrounded and on sliding elements 44 arranged in a row can act.
  • FIG. 2a shows details of the drive 46 of the sliding bar 41.
  • a Pressure cylinder-piston arrangement 49 known per se is not shown Air connections pressurized with compressed air, so that its piston 51 on the movable Plate 52 of a parallelogram with stationary plate 53 can act; the plate 52 is thereby displaced in the direction of the double arrow 30.
  • the empty containers 16 stand on a conveyor belt 56, which is the foremost container 16.1 moves to the feed station in the direction of arrow 57.
  • a conveyor belt 56 For lowering in filling position 16.2 there are motor drives 58, 59, the chains 61 and 62 drive, which are guided around sprockets 63 and 64. Transport the chains 61, 62 the containers 16.2 after their filling on the conveyor belt 66, which they in Conveyed in the direction of arrow 67.
  • the empty containers can the conveyor belt 56th the full containers 16.2 are fed manually or automatically or automatically removed from the conveyor belt 66.
  • FIG. 1a and in particular Figure 4 is the trough belt 22 with the troughs 22a as well as the article A in a greatly enlarged scale.
  • the radii R of the Troughs are significantly larger than those of Article A. They are also minor larger than that from the center of the second article A2 to the trough 22a running distance S.
  • the greatest distances between the trough bands 22 and 23 correspond advantageous the number of articles in a layer x article diameter + 1 ⁇ 2 article diameter.
  • Such a dimensioning makes it easier for articles to slip and the formation of uniform layers with "gap" articles as a result unequal number of articles in successive layers. So are on the base plate 21 and between the trough bands 22, 23 in the space 17 article formations of a very uniform number of articles, which is particularly important then if 16 is a shipping container in which the items from whose manufacturers are sold to processors.
