Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for conveying rod-shaped articles of the tobacco-processing industry according to the preamble of claim 1 and a container conveying device for conveying rod-shaped articles of the tobacco-processing industry according to the preamble of claim 11.
- rod-shaped articles of the tobacco-processing industry are tobacco rods, tobacco rods with stamp imprint, filter cigarettes, cigars, cigarillos, cigarillos with filter or mouthpiece and filter rods to understand.
- rod-shaped articles of the tobacco-processing industry are to be understood in particular as filter rods.
- filter rods or in part also cigarettes, other rod-shaped articles are not excluded.
- the filter rods of particular interest here are manufactured in the cigarette industry during production on stranding machines in an endless filter strand from which individual filter rods are then cut off.
- auxiliaries are used which require a certain amount of time to reach their desired final state. Therefore, the filter rods must not be further processed into filter cigarettes before this time has elapsed.
- a so-called plasticizer with which the most used today in filter production Acetatfasem be dissolved before the strand formation of the filter strand.
- the plasticizer hardens, after which the individual fibers of the acetate adhere to one another at the joints.
- the well-known and proven pneumatic conveyor systems for such cured filter rods consist of transmitting stations with magazines, from which transfer devices successive filter rods in the pneumatic conveying lines, from which then the filter rods are transferred by means of further transfer devices to the filter attachment machines or to appropriate magazines Filteransetzmaschinen.
- the US 5,478,184 which corresponds to DE 37 06 114 A1, discloses a method and apparatus for conveying rod-shaped articles of the tobacco processing industry, in which the articles are filled into containers and the containers are discharged into a full container receiving station and supplied to a container emptying device.
- the rate of an article feeder exceeds the picking capacity of a device processing the articles
- the feeding of the articles to the device processing the articles is delayed or, for that reason, the articles are shifted to a memory.
- the supply of articles to the container emptying device must be slowed down, so that for this reason, the performance of the downstream processing machine must be shut down.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a method and a container conveyor device in which the best possible compromise is achieved between sufficient curing time of the articles in the container conveyor device and maximum throughput of the container conveyor device.
- the advantages of the invention are in particular that due to the detection of the residence time of the container in the full container receiving station can be decided in time whether the container should be supplied directly to the container emptying device, or whether the container via a detour or initially not the container emptying device to be supplied. It is taken into account whether the residence time of the containers on the full container receiving station has already reached a predefinable minimum residence time.
- This predetermined or desired minimum residence time is, in particular, a curing time required for filter rods of the type mentioned at the outset. This is about 20 minutes for today's filter rods; however, the present invention is totally independent of the extent of that time, rather the invention in question operates at any given minimum dwell time.
- the invention is characterized in that the length of the detour is controlled as a function of the detected residence time.
- the detour is advantageously realized by a first supply station to which the containers are set, which have not yet reached the desired residence time on the full container receiving station.
- the device according to the invention for carrying out the method according to the invention has a transfer device for the purpose of feeding the containers from the full container receiving station to the container emptying device or to the full container feeding station. In this embodiment, this transfer device is then controlled in such a way that it places the containers on the first supply station as a function of the detected dwell time.
- the containers are set to a full container feed station prior to feeding to the container emptying device.
- a total residence time can then be determined from the recorded residence time on the full container receiving station and the expected residence time on the full container supply station. This total residence time can then be compared with the minimum residence time. In this way, in this embodiment, the level of containers on the Voll actuallyerzu slaughterstation be considered before the actual container emptying device. Only when the total residence time formed from the two residence times does not reach the desired minimum residence time, the containers are passed through a detour.
- a second supply station for receiving filled containers is provided, with which the transfer device is also operatively connected.
- This second supply station preferably has a dispensing position for dispensing filled containers, to which dispensing position the converting device can preferably access.
- the conversion device is designed such that with their help containers from the second supply station to the Voll knownerzu slaughterstation be implemented.
- a control device ensures that the containers from the second supply station can also be converted into the full container supply station as a function of the expected dwell time.
- a control device controls the transfer device such that the transfer device, when it converts a container from the full container receiving station in the first supply station, automatically converts a container from the second supply station in the Voll knownerzu Siliconstation to idling to prevent the full container supply station.
- this fully automatic completion of the full container feed station ensures particularly advantageous that the subsequent processing of the container conveyor processing machines are always sufficiently supplied with the processed articles, and in particular with sufficiently cured filter rods. Thanks to the invention, it is therefore possible that the downstream processing machines downstream of the container conveyor at no time have to reduce their processing speed. This advantage is not achieved in the prior art.
- the second supply station is connected to the first supply station, so that a holding cycle for full container can be formed.
- This waiting loop is advantageously designed so that a sufficient residence time for the full container is ensured.
- the combination of first and second supply station, the aforementioned maintenance loop be designed so that the desired minimum residence time is achieved in the container conveyor device alone in the two supply stations. In this way, even a continuous operation of the downstream of the container conveyor device can be located processing machines are ensured when the throughput speeds of Voll hereerability- and Voll variouserzu slaughterstation are so high that in these stations almost no residence times are generated.
- the holding pattern may preferably be designed so that it can be removed from it by hand full container and set by hand in it full container. In this way, even in the event of total failure of the production machine located upstream of the container conveyor, the uninterrupted operation of the downstream processing machines can be ensured.
- the determination of the residence time of the containers in the individual stations can be accomplished in many ways. It has proved to be advantageous if at least one of the stations, in particular the full container receiving station, has a first container detection device with the aid of which the containers can be detected. It makes sense if the first container detection device is provided at the beginning of the full container receiving station. In this way, the containers can be detected immediately after they have been filled. Then the containers in a associated with the first container detection means assignment or arithmetic unit, a time, hereinafter called timestamp assigned.
- a time stamp is understood here to mean either a clock which, at the moment of the generation of the time stamp, stands at zero and then counts up in the normal time clock.
- the time stamp can also be the actual local time existing at the time of the creation of the time stamp.
- this fixed time once assigned to a container, is simply compared with the then current time, and the dwell time of the container is determined by the difference.
- the time at which the location on which the container was located at the detection can be calculated at the end of the full container receiving station has arrived. At this time, the timestamp of the container is then queried. In this way, the residence time of the container within the container conveyor can be determined precisely. Preferably, the elapsed time is determined at the end or at the exit of the full container receiving station.
- the converter can be instructed by the controller to implement this particular container in the first supply station. In its place, a container is then removed from the second supply station with sufficient residence time and implemented in the Voll practicalerzu 1988station.
- the containers in the second supply station are not in the sense of the above-described waiting loop from the first storage station, but have been set in the also chen described exceptional situations by hand in the second supply station, they are preferably at the beginning of the second supply station also with a timestamp Mistake. In this way it can be determined in such a set by hand filled containers in the second supply station, whether they have at the end of the second supply station a sufficient residence time to reach together with the residence time in the Voll actuallyerzu slaughterstation the desired minimum residence time in the container conveyor.
- FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a container conveyor device 1 according to the invention.
- FIG. 1 shows the container conveyor device 1 in a side view. The structure and operation of the container conveyor device 1 will be explained with reference to the sequence of filling the container until emptying the same.
- empty containers 4 are fed by means of a conveyor belt 6, not shown, but symbolized by the arrow 8 Be communionerhell sensible.
- the empty containers 4 filled by the container filling device 8 are then fed to a full container receiving station 14 as a full container 10 at the point symbolized by the arrow 12.
- the full container receiving station 14 also has a conveyor belt 16.
- the conveyor belt 16 has a conveying direction 6 opposite to the conveying direction.
- a sensor 20 In the area of At the beginning of the conveyor belt 16 is a sensor 20. The sensor 20 detects the fresh, reaching at the point 12 in the full container receiving station 14 full container 10th
- the sensor 20 is connected to a computing unit, not shown.
- the first, detected by the sensor 20 full container 10 is assigned in the arithmetic unit any natural number, for example, the number 1.
- the full container 10 subsequent full container 10 are also detected by the sensor 20 and obtained in ascending order the following natural numbers.
- the third full container 10 detected by the sensor 20 is assigned the number 3.
- the current time of a clock installed in the arithmetic unit is assigned to the full container 10, thus designated with a natural number.
- the designation of the full container 10 and the associated time of the internal clock in the arithmetic unit remain assigned to the full container 10 until it has left the container conveyor device 1 again.
- a full container 10 at any point within the container conveyor device 1 the time, referred to below dwell, be assigned, which has elapsed since the filling of the full container 10 by means of the container filling device 8 .
- the second sensor 24 is located at the end 22 of the conveyor belt 16 of the full container receiving station 14.
- the sensor 24 detects the full container 10 again.
- In the arithmetic unit can now be determined by comparing the current time with the time stamp of the full container 10, which has dwell time of the full container 10 accumulated in the full container receiving station 14. The thus determined residence time of the full container 10 since the detection with the sensor 20 is then compared with a desired, predetermined in the arithmetic unit dwell time of the full container 10 in the full container receiving station 14.
- the containers are also moved by a conveyor belt 30 in Fig. 1 from left to right.
- a third sensor 34 At the end 32 of the conveyor belt 30 is a third sensor 34.
- the respective full container 10 is detected by means of the sensor 34 again, and then to compare in the arithmetic unit based on the time stamp the previously accumulated residence time in the container conveyor device 1 with the desired minimum residence time , Once the minimum dwell time has been reached, the full container 10 is transferred to a receiving position 36 of a second supply station 38.
- the second storage station 38 has a fourth conveyor belt 40, wherein the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 40 is opposite to the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 30.
- At the end 42 of the conveyor belt 40 is another sensor 44.
- the full container feed station 48 also has a conveyor belt 50.
- Another sensor 54 At the end 52 of the conveyor belt 50 of the Voll practicalerzu Hyundaistation 48 is another sensor 54. This sensor also performs the same tasks that have also fulfilled the previously described sensors 24, 34 and 44.
- the arithmetic unit with the help of the sensor 54 but still at this time a not sufficient, ie not reach the minimum dwell time dwell time of the full container 10 in the container conveyor 1 determine so a warning signal is issued to the operator. Because after the sensor 54 of the full container 10 passes directly into the not shown, but symbolized by a double cassette with a double arrow container emptying device 56, and from there into the further processing machines, also not shown. The operating staff must decide in such a case, if the Full container 10, which has a not yet sufficient residence time in the container conveyor device 1 at the location of the sensor 54, should nevertheless be processed further.
- Fig. 1 also shows the transfer of the full container 10 at the end 32 of the conveyor belt 30 of the first supply station 28 in the receiving position 36 of the second supply station 38.
- This transfer is according to arrow 70 optionally through a gap 72 in the conveyor belt 30 of the first supply station 28th fully automatic with the help of a lift, not shown.
- the manual transfer (with possible intermediate storage) of the full container 10 from the first supply station 28 into the second supply station 38 is also possible. This manual conversion is symbolized by the arrows 74 and 76, respectively.
- a further sensor 78 in the amount of the receiving position 36 of the second storage station 38 is provided.
- full container 10 which are set by hand on the receiving position 36, at the location of the sensor 78 also provided with a time stamp.
