Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Filteransetzmaschine der tabakverarbeitenden Industrie, mit Fördereinrichtungen für Produkte der tabakverarbeitenden Industrie und wenigstens einem Antrieb, insbesondere Hauptantrieb, für die Fördereinrichtungen, und mit einer Abziehvorrichtung für einen Belagstreifen und einer Belagstreifenschneidvorrichtung für den Belagstreifen, wobei der Belagstreifen von der Abziehvorrichtung zur Belagstreifenschneidvorrichtung gefördert wird und von der Schneidvorrichtung in Streifen mit vorbestimmter Länge geschnitten wird und nachfolgend einem Produkt auf einer der Fördereinrichtungen übergeben wird. Darüber hinaus betrifft die Erfindung ein Verfahren zum Betrieb einer Filteransetzmaschine der tabakverarbeitenden Industrie.The invention relates to a filter attachment machine of the tobacco processing industry, with conveyors for products of the tobacco processing industry and at least one drive, in particular main drive, for the conveyors, and with a stripper for a tipping strip and a lining strip cutting device for the tipping strip, wherein the tipping strip from the puller to the tipping strip cutting device is conveyed and cut by the cutting device into strips of predetermined length and is subsequently transferred to a product on one of the conveyors. Furthermore The invention relates to a method of operating a filter attachment machine of the tobacco processing industry.

Eine Filteransetzmaschine dieser Art der Anmelderin ist unter der Typenbezeichnung MAX bekannt. Für die Herstellung von Filterzigaretten in einer Filteransetzmaschine wird ein Belagstreifen von einer Bobine abgezogen, einseitig beleimt und in der Schneidvorrichtung kontinuierlich in Belagblättchen zerschnitten. Die Belagblättchen werden einzeln an Zigarette-Filterstopfen-Zigarette-Gruppen angeheftet und so um diese herumgerollt, daß sie die Gruppen zu Doppelfilterzigaretten verbinden, die im sich anschließenden Verarbeitungsprozeß zu Einzelzigaretten zerschnitten und weiterverarbeitet werden. Beim Schnitt des Belagstreifens wirken eine Schneidewalze, um welche der Belagpapierstreifen geführt ist, und eine Messerwalze derat zusammen, daß die Messer den Streifen quer zur Förderrichtung durchtrennen.A filter attachment machine of this type of the applicant is known under the type designation MAX. For the production of filter cigarettes in a filter tufting machine, a tipping strip is pulled off a bobbin, glued on one side and continuously cut into tipping rolls in the cutting device. The pad sheets are individually tacked to and wrapped around cigarette filter plug-cigarette groups to join the groups into double-filter cigarettes, which are then sliced into single cigarettes and further processed in the subsequent processing process. When cutting the lining strip act a cutting roller, which is guided by the tipping paper strip, and a knife roller derat together that the knife cut the strip transversely to the conveying direction.

Während des Anhaltens der Filteransetzmaschine entstehen kleine Schnipsel beim Schneiden des Belagstreifens an der Schneidvorrichtung. Bei einem Maschinenstopp wird der Papierlauf zu einem Zeitpunkt weggeschaltet, an dem der letzte Tabakstock und Doppelfilter mit einem Blättchen versehen wurde. Um einen unnötigen Belagpapierverbrauch zu vermeiden,-schaltet eine steile Rampe an den Abzugwalzen den Papierlauf schnell ab. In der gleichen Zeit fährt die Maschine die letzten Zigaretten mit einer festen Leerfahrgeschwindigkeit aus der Maschine heraus. Da der Belagapparat synchron zu den Fördertrommeln der Filteransetzmaschine angetrieben wird, kommt es zu einer größeren Geschwindigkeitsdifferenz zwischen Belagpapier und Belagsaugwalze, da die Abzugswalzen in einer kürzeren Zeit abgebremst werden und die Schneid- und Saugwalze mit einer fixen Geschwindigkeit sich drehen, bis die Maschine leergefahren ist. Diese Geschwindigkeitsdifferenz verursacht störende Belagpapierschnipsel, weil die Belagsaugwalze weiterhin rotiert und das abgebremste Belagpapier ansaugt. Dabei wird das angehaltene Belagpapier mit der Saugwalze ein wenig infolge der Haftung weitertransportiert und abgeschnitten. Diese feinen, abgeschnittenen Schnipsel unter dem Belagwickel stellen eine erhebliche Qualitätsminderung dar. Um die kleinen Schnipsel zu beseitigen, wurde eine spezielle Absaugung für die Schnipsel entwickelt.During the stopping of the filter attachment small snippets arise when cutting the lining strip on the cutting device. In a machine stop, the paper run is switched off at a time at which the last tobacco rod and double filter was provided with a leaflet. In order to avoid unnecessary tipping paper consumption, a steep ramp on the take-off rollers quickly shuts off the paper feed. At the same time, the machine drives the last cigarettes out of the machine at a fixed empty speed. Since the pad apparatus is driven in synchronism with the conveyor drums of the filter attachment machine, there is a greater difference in speed between padding and pad suction because the take-off rolls are braked in a shorter time and the cutting and Suction roll at a fixed speed to rotate until the machine is idle. This speed difference causes annoying tipping paper scraps, because the lining suction roll continues to rotate and sucks in the decelerated tipping paper. The stopped tipping paper is further transported with the suction roll a little due to the liability and cut off. These fine, shredded snippets under the covering wrap are a significant reduction in quality. To eliminate the small snippets, a special suction for the snippets has been developed.

Ausgehend vom Stand der Technik ist es Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, die Bildung von Belagpapierschnipseln in einer Filteransetzmaschine zu verhindern.Starting from the prior art, it is an object of the present invention to prevent the formation of tipping paper chips in a filter tipping machine.

Eine erste Lösung der Aufgabe erfolgt bei einer Filteransetzmaschine mittels der kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruch 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben.A first solution of the problem is carried out in a filter attachment machine by means of the characterizing features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are described in the subclaims.

Erfindungsgemäß wird eine Filteransetzmaschine der tabakverarbeitenden Industrie mit Fördereinrichtungen für Produkte der tabakverarbeitenden Industrie und wenigstens einem ersten Antrieb, insbesondere Hauptantrieb, für die Fördereinrichtungen und mit einer Abzieheinrichtung für einen Belagstreifen und einer Belagstreifenschneidvorrichtung für den Belagstreifen, wobei der Belagstreifen von der Abziehvorrichtung zur Belagstreifenschneidvorrichtung gefördert wird und von der Schneidvorrichtung in Streifen mit vorbestimmter Länge geschnitten wird und nachfolgend einem Produkt auf einer der Fördereinrichtungen übergeben wird, dadurch weitergebildet, daß wenigstens ein zweiten Antrieb für die Abziehvorrichtung und die Schneidvorrichtung vorgesehen ist. Um eine gleichmäßige Förderung der Zigarettenprodukte bzw. Zigaretten zu erreichen, werden sämtliche Trommeln der Filteransetzmaschine von einem Hauptantrieb in der Regel angetrieben. Durch den unabhängigen (Synchron-) Antrieb gelingt es, die Abziehvorrichtung und die Schneidvorrichtung mit der gleichen Geschwindigkeit zu betreiben. Dies ist unabhängig vom Rest der Filteransetzmaschine. Durch den gemeinsamen (synchronen) Antrieb wird ein Gleichlauf der Abziehvorrichtung und der Schneidvorrichtung erzielt. Dadurch wird erreicht, daß die Belagblättchen beim Anfahren, Dauerbetrieb und beim Herunterfahren der Maschine stets eine gleichbleibende Länge aufweisen. Es werden die bisher störenden Schnipsel vermieden, da sie erst gar nicht entstehen können. Darüber hinaus kann auf eine spezielle Schnipselabsaugung verzichtet werden, was sich günstig auf die Kosten und den Aufbau der Maschine auswirkt.According to the invention, a filter attachment machine of the tobacco processing industry with conveying devices for products of the tobacco processing industry and at least a first drive, in particular main drive, for the conveyors and a stripper for a tipping strip and a lining strip cutting device for the tipping strip, wherein the tipping strip is conveyed from the puller to the tipping strip cutting device and is cut by the cutting device into strips of predetermined length and subsequently transferred to a product on one of the conveyors, further developed by providing at least a second drive for the stripper and the cutting device. Around To achieve a uniform promotion of the cigarette products or cigarettes, all drums of Filteransetzmaschine are driven by a main drive usually. The independent (synchronous) drive makes it possible to operate the puller and the cutting device at the same speed. This is independent of the rest of the Filteransetzmaschine. By the common (synchronous) drive a synchronization of the puller and the cutting device is achieved. This ensures that the cover sheets always have a constant length when starting, continuous operation and when shutting down the machine. It avoids the previously annoying snippets because they can not even arise. In addition, can be dispensed with a special Schnipselabsaugung, which has a favorable effect on the cost and structure of the machine.

In einer Weiterbildung der Filteransetzmaschine ist es von Vorteil, wenn beim Maschinenstopp der Antrieb für Abzieh- und Schneidvorrichtung vom Antrieb, insbesondere Hauptantrieb, für die Fördereinrichtungen entkoppelbar ist. Beim Herunterfahren der Maschine kann durch die Entkoppelung des Antriebs vom Hauptantrieb der Belagpapierlauf synchron abgebremst werden, da Abzieh- und Schneidvorrichtung den Belagpapierstreifen mit der gleichen Fördergeschwindigkeit transportieren und beim Maschinenstopp gleichzeitig abgebremst werden. Aufgrund des Synchronlaufs wird erreicht, daß immer nur Belagblättchen in voller Länge abgeschnitten werden. Diese exakt geschnittenen Blättchen können aufgrund ihrer Größe besser abgesaugt werden als die feinen Schnipselchen.In a refinement of the filter attachment machine, it is advantageous if, during the machine stop, the drive for the removal and cutting device can be decoupled from the drive, in particular the main drive, for the conveyors. When shutting down the machine can be braked synchronously by the decoupling of the drive from the main drive of the tipping paper, since the peel and cutting device to transport the tipping paper strip at the same conveying speed and decelerated simultaneously at the machine stop. Due to the synchronous operation is achieved that only ever cover sheets are cut off in full length. These accurately cut leaves can be sucked better than the fine snippets due to their size.

Ferner ist es vorzugswürdig, wenn beim Anfahren der Maschine der Antrieb für Abzieh- und Schneidvorrichtung synchronisierbar ist mit dem Antrieb, insbesondere Hauptantrieb, für die Fördereinrichtungen. Durch das lagesynchrone Anfahren werden exakt die Belagblättchen einer doppeltlangen Zigarette übergeben.Furthermore, it is preferable if, when starting the machine, the drive for stripping and cutting device can be synchronized with the drive, in particular the main drive, for the conveyors. Due to the position-synchronous start-up, exactly the covering sheets of a double-length cigarette are transferred.

Vorteilhafterweise ist der Antrieb für Abzieh- und Schneidvorrichtung als Synchronantrieb ausgebildet. Unter dem Begriff "Synchronantrieb" werden auch einzelne Antriebe (für Abzieh- und Schneidvorrichtung) verstanden, die miteinander synchronisiert sind, so daß ein Gleichlauf von Abzieh- und Schneidvorrichtung erreicht wird.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform ist die Abziehvorrichtung als Abzugswalzenpaar ausgebildet. Das Abzugswalzenpaar besteht aus Walzen, durch die hindurch der Belagstreifen geführt ist. Die angetriebenen Walzen ziehen den Belagstreifen von einer Bobine ab.
Advantageously, the drive for stripping and cutting device is designed as a synchronous drive. The term "synchronous drive" also individual drives (for peeling and cutting device) understood that are synchronized with each other, so that a synchronization of stripping and cutting device is achieved.
In an advantageous embodiment, the puller is designed as a take-off roller pair. The take-off roller pair consists of rollers through which the covering strip is guided. The driven rollers pull the covering strip from a reel.

Vorzugswürdig ist es weiterhin, wenn die Schneidvorrichtung mittels einer Schneidtrommel und einer Messertrommel ausgebildet ist.It is also preferable if the cutting device is formed by means of a cutting drum and a cutterhead.

Als weitere Lösung wird bei einem Verfahren zum Betrieb einer Filteransetzmaschine der tabakverarbeitenden Industrie, wobei Produkte der tabakverarbeitenden Industrie mittels Fördereinrichtungen, die von wenigstens einem ersten Antrieb, insbesondere Hauptantrieb, angetrieben werden, transportiert werden und wobei ein Belagstreifen von einer Abziehvorrichtung zu einer Schneidvorrichtung transportiert wird, von der Schneidvorrichtung in Streifen vorbestimmter Länge geschnitten wird und nachfolgend einem Produkt auf einer der Fördereinrichtungen übergeben wird, vorgeschlagen, daß die Abziehvorrichtung und die Schneidvorrichtung mittels wenigstens eines zweiten Antriebes angetrieben werden.As a further solution is in a method for operating a Filteransetzmaschine the tobacco-processing industry, wherein products of the tobacco processing industry by means of conveyors, which are driven by at least a first drive, in particular main drive, transported, and wherein a covering strip is transported from a puller to a cutting device is cut by the cutting device into strips of predetermined length and subsequently transferred to a product on one of the conveyors, it is proposed that the stripping device and the cutting device are driven by means of at least one second drive.

Von Vorteil ist es, wenn beim Maschinenstopp der Antrieb für Abzieh- und Schneidvorrichtung vom Antrieb für die Fördereinrichtungen entkoppelt wird.It is advantageous if, during the machine stop, the drive for the stripping and cutting device is decoupled from the drive for the conveyors.

Desweiteren ist es von Vorteil, wenn beim Anfahren der Maschine der Antrieb für Abzieh- und Schneidvorrichtung mit dem Antrieb für die Fördereinrichtungen synchronisiert wird.Furthermore, it is advantageous if, when starting the machine, the drive for the peeling and cutting device is synchronized with the drive for the conveyors.

Außerdem wird der Antrieb bevorzugt mittels eines Synchronantriebs ausgebildet.In addition, the drive is preferably formed by means of a synchronous drive.

In einer Weiterbildung des Verfahrens ist es vorteilhaft, wenn der Belagstreifen mittels eines Abzugswalzenpaares abgezogen wird.In a development of the method, it is advantageous if the covering strip is pulled off by means of a pair of withdrawal rollers.

Außerdem wird in einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung der Belagstreifen mittels einer Schneidtrommel und einer Messertrommel geschnitten.In addition, in an advantageous development of the invention, the covering strip is cut by means of a cutting drum and a knife drum.

Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels in Figur 1 exemplarisch beschrieben.The invention will be described by way of example with reference to an exemplary embodiment in FIG.

Die Filterstäbe gelangen aus einem Magazin 4 auf eine Schneidtrommel 6, werden dort zu Filterstopfen doppelter Gebrauchslänge geschnitten, auf einer Staffeltrommel 7 gestaffelt, von einer Schiebetrommel 8 zu einer Reihe hintereinanderliegender Stopfen ausgerichtet und von einer Beschleunigertrommel 9 in die Zwischenräume der Zigarettenreihen auf der Zusammenstelltrommel 3 abgelegt.Fig. 1 shows a schematic front view of a filter attachment machine of the MAX type of the applicant. In the filter attachment machine, an infeed drum 1 transfers the cigarettes produced on a cigarette making machine to two relay drums 2, which decaffeinate the staggered cigarettes and deliver them in rows of two each with a gap between the cigarettes to an assembly drum 3. The filter rods arrive from a magazine 4 On a cutting drum 6, there are cut into filter plug double the useful length, staggered on a staggering drum 7, aligned by a sliding drum 8 to a series of consecutive plugs and stored by an accelerator drum 9 in the interstices of the cigarette rows on the assembly drum 3.

Die Zigarette-Filter-Zigarette-Gruppen werden zusammengeschoben und von einer Übergabetrommel 11 übernommen.The cigarette filter cigarette groups are pushed together and taken over by a transfer drum 11.

Ein von einer Belagpapierbobine 13 mittels eines Abzugswalzenpaares 15 abgezogener Belagpapierstreifen 12 wird von einer Beleimvorrichtung 14 nachfolgend beleimt und anschließend in einer Schneidvorrichtung 16 auf einer Schneidtrommel 17 von den Messern einer Messertrommel 18 in Belagblättchen zerschnitten. Die abgetrennten Belagblättchen werden an die Zigarette-Filter-Zigarette-Gruppen auf der Übergabetrommel 11 angeheftet und auf einer Rolltrommel 19 um die Zigarettenfiltergruppen herumgerollt. Die fertigen Doppelfilterzigaretten werden über eine Trockentrommel 21 einer Schneidtrommel 22 zugeführt und auf dieser durch mittiges Scheiden durch die Filterstopfen hindurch zu Einzelfilterzigaretten konfektioniert.A tipping paper strip 12 drawn off from a tipping paper bobbin 13 by means of a take-off roller pair 15 is subsequently glued by a gluing device 14 and subsequently cut in a cutting device 16 on a cutting drum 17 by the knives of a cutterhead 18 into tipping laminae. The separated pad sheets are adhered to the cigarette filter-cigarette groups on the transfer drum 11 and rolled on a roller drum 19 around the cigarette filter groups. The finished double-filter cigarettes are fed via a drying drum 21 to a cutting drum 22 and assembled thereon by means of central shaving through the filter plug to single-filter cigarettes.

Eine Wendeeinrichtung 23 wendet eine Zigarettenreihe und überführt sie gleichzeitig in die durchlaufende ungewendete Filterzigarettenreihe. Über eine Prüftrommel 24 gelangen die Filterzigaretten zu einer Auswerftrommel 26. Eine mit einer Bremstrommel 27 zusammenwirkende Ablegertrommel 28 legt die Filterzigaretten auf ein Ablegerband 29.A turning device 23 applies a row of cigarettes and simultaneously transfers them into the continuous unswept series of filter cigarettes. Via a test drum 24, the filter cigarettes reach an ejection drum 26. A take-off drum 28, which cooperates with a brake drum 27, places the filter cigarettes on a depositing belt 29.

Die Beleimungseinrichtung 14 besteht aus einer (nicht weiter beschriebenen) in einen Leimvorrat eintauchenden Entnahmewalze und einer Leimauftragswalze, welche eine Leimschicht auf dem Belagpapierstreifen 12 aufträgt. Über eine Umlenk- und Oszillatoranordnung wird der Belagpapierstreifen 12 zur Schneidtrommel 17 geführt, welche er gegenüber der Messertrommel 18 in einem vorgegebenen Winkelabschnitt umschlingt. Die Umfangsfläche der Schneidtrommel 17 ist in üblicher Weise mit Saugluft beaufschlagt, welche über Saugluftbohrungen zugeführt wird und den Belagpapierstreifen 12 an der Oberfläche der Schneidtrommel 17 festhält. Die Saugluft ist so bemessen, daß ein Schlupf zwischen den Belagpapiersteifen 12 und der Oberfläche der Schneidtrommel 17 möglich ist. Die Schneidtrommel 17 weist in ihrer Umfangsfläche achsparallele Nuten auf, deren in Laufrichtung vordere Flanke als Schneidkante für den die Belagblättchen vom Belagpapierstreifen 12 abtrennenden Trennschnitt vorgesehen ist.The gluing device 14 consists of a removal roller (not described further) immersed in a glue stock and a glue application roller which applies a glue layer on the tipping paper strip 12. About a deflection and oscillator arrangement of the tipping paper strip 12 is guided to the cutting drum 17, which he wraps around the cutterhead 18 in a predetermined angle section. The peripheral surface of the cutting drum 17 is acted upon in the usual way with suction, which is supplied via Saugluftbohrungen and the tipping paper strip 12 holds on the surface of the cutting drum 17. The suction air is dimensioned so that a slip between the tipping paper stiffeners 12 and the surface of the cutting drum 17 is possible. The cutting drum 17 has axially parallel grooves in its circumferential surface, the front edge of which is provided in the direction of travel as the cutting edge for which the covering sheets are separated from the tipping paper strip 12.

A main drive 50 can via a gear unit 51, the inlet drum 1, staggering drum 2, compilation drum 3, cutting drum 6, staggering drum 7, layer drum 8, accelerator drum 9, transfer drum 11, roller drum 19, drying drum 21, cutting drum 22, turning device 23, test drum 24, ejector drum 26th , Brake drum 27 and Ablegertrommel 28 drive.

Für das Abzugswalzenpaar 15 und die Schneidvorrichtung 16 ist ein separater Antrieb 52 vorgesehen, der mit einer dazugehörenden Getriebeeinheit 53 die Abziehvorrichtung 15 und die Schneidvorrichtung 16 und evtl. auch noch andere Förderwalzen für den Belagpapierstreifen 12 synchron antreibt. Der erfindungsgemäße Synchronantrieb 52 sorgt für einen Gleichlauf der Vorrichtungen 15, 16 und bewirkt, daß auch beim Abschalten der Maschine gleichlange Belagblättchen geschnitten werden. Beim Herunterfahren der Maschine wird der Synchronantrieb 52 vom Hauptantrieb 50 entkoppelt. Das Anfahren der Maschine erfolgt lagesynchron zwischen Hauptantrieb 50 und dem Synchronantrieb 52.For the take-off roller pair 15 and the cutting device 16, a separate drive 52 is provided which synchronously drives the removal device 15 and the cutting device 16 and possibly also other conveyor rollers for the tipping paper strip 12 with an associated gear unit 53. The synchronous drive 52 according to the invention ensures a synchronization of the devices 15, 16 and causes the same length of cover sheets to be cut even when the machine is switched off. When shutting down the machine, the synchronous drive 52 is decoupled from the main drive 50. The startup of the machine takes place synchronously between the main drive 50 and the synchronous drive 52.

Da in Folge des separaten Synchronantriebs 52 von der Schneidvorrichtung 16 stets gleichlange Belagblättchen geschnitten werden, können auch keine Belagschnipsel beim Herunterfahren der Maschine entstehen. Da beim Abschalten der Maschine die Blättchengröße beibehalten wird, können die noch geschnittenen Blättchen sicher durch eine Absaugung abgeführt werden.Since as a result of the separate synchronous drive 52 of the cutting device 16 always the same length of cover sheets are cut, no Belagschnipsel can occur when shutting down the machine. Since the size of the leaflets is maintained when the machine is switched off, the leaflets still cut can be safely removed by suction.
