Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing filter cigarettes from tobacco sticks, which are severed during transport centrally to form sub-sticks, wherein the sub-parts moved apart, connected to a filter piece by tipping paper and thus formed cigarette units are cut centrally in the region of the filter piece. Furthermore, the invention relates to a device for carrying out the method.
  • the manufacture or completion of filter cigarettes takes place in the area of a filter attachment machine. This has a number of drums with circumferentially arranged wells. In the area of these drum troughs, the aforementioned process steps for the production of the filter cigarettes are carried out.
  • a drum for the handling of outside of the drum severed tobacco sticks, so for handling of sub-sticks.
  • On the circumference of the drum formed units are each formed of two segment troughs, which are displaceable in the axial direction, namely until they abut each other on the one hand and on the other.
  • the segment troughs each contain a partial stock.
  • the distance of the segment troughs from each other in the corresponding end position of the sliding segments is chosen so that a filter piece can be inserted into the gap.
  • the spaced part blocks are removed from the drum and provided outside the area thereof with the filter piece.
  • the invention has for its object to improve the production of filter cigarettes by better matched process steps and by a correspondingly adapted device.
  • the peculiarity of the invention is therefore that the predominant work steps are carried out in the area of a single conveying member, namely in the region of a main drum. Because of the particular steps involved in the application of the tipping paper, the elements of the cigarettes for the attachment of the tipping paper from the main drum are removed, but then returned to this.
  • Further measures of the invention relate to possibilities of adapting the main drum with respect to the functionally affected organs to different dimensions of the filter cigarettes to be produced, in particular with regard to the length of the filters.
  • the apparatus shown schematically in Fig. 1 is part of a cigarette making machine.
  • the central element is a main drum 10. This is associated with several auxiliary drums, which lead parallel to the axis up to the circumference of the main drum 10. It is a feed drum 11, a filter drum 12, a return drum 13 and a removal drum 14.
  • the individual production phases are shown symbolically and associated with the respective areas of the main drum 10 and other conveying organs.
  • tobacco rods 15 separated from a tobacco rod are transferred to the main drum 10 by the feed drum 11.
  • the tobacco sticks 15 have already been severed in the middle in a previous working stroke to form two equally long part pieces 16, 17. These are first transported into troughs 18 of the feed drum 11 and then from troughs of the main drum 10, namely segment troughs 19, 20, accepted.
  • the sub-sticks 16, 17 are moved apart in the axial direction to form a gap between the two sub-sticks 16, 17 (Fig. 5, Fig. 6). In this gap, a (double-length) filter piece 21 is inserted. This is prepared separately and fed through the likewise provided with wells 18 filter drum 12 to the circumference of the main drum 10.
  • a special feature of the device is that the filter pieces 21 only in the vicinity of the main drum 10 and filter drum 12 in the segment troughs 19, 20 of the main drum 10 occur.
  • the filter drum 12 takes each associated sub-sticks 16, 17 together with a filter piece 21 again from the main drum 10, transported these parts to the transfer to a conveyor, not shown in detail.
  • the partial sticks 16, 17 are first brought into contact with the associated filter piece 21.
  • the connection between these elements is made by a tipping paper 22 which is to be connected to each other Parts are laid around.
  • cigarette units 23 are conveyed by the return drum 13 back to the main drum 10 and stored in the segment troughs 19, 20.
  • a separating cut is made centrally in the area of the filter pieces 21 by a separating knife 24 associated with the main drum 10.
  • (finished) filter cigarettes 25 are formed with filters 26 facing each other.
  • the filter cigarettes 25 are - by increasing the distance from each other - further transported by the main drum 10 to the discharge drum 14, which takes the filter cigarettes 25 pairs and ab responsiblet.
  • the emptied segment troughs 19, 20 are now free for receiving the tobacco sticks 15.
  • the main drum 10 is formed in a special way, namely arranged on the outer circumference, axially parallel movable supports for the wells, namely sliding segments 27, 28 which are assigned in pairs to each other.
  • the sliding segments are slidably mounted on support rods 29 and are controlled in particular by arranged within the main drum 10 curves.
  • a circumferential ring segment 30 is attached as immovable organ.
  • the support rods 29 are connected to the segment ring 30.
  • the sliding segments 27, 28 have a number of juxtaposed segment troughs 19, 20, which are arranged at a small distance from each other and rectified.
  • the segment troughs 19, 20 have bores 31, which are connected to a vacuum source, so that in the troughs or segment troughs 19, 20 there is a negative pressure for fixing the tobacco rods 15 or cigarette units 23 or filter cigarettes 25.
  • Die Segmentmulden 19, 20 find in a continuation in annular recesses 32 in the segment ring 30.
  • sliding segments 27, 28 results in continuous wells (Fig. 3, below), for example, for receiving tobacco rods 15 and Operastöcken 16, 17.
  • the annular grooves 32nd are provided with holes 33 which are connected to a vacuum source and - regardless of the holes 31 - can be acted upon with suction.
  • the filter pieces 21 are applied and fixed in the region of the segment ring 30 to the circumference of the main drum 10. Furthermore, in the region of the segment ring 30, the separating cut is carried out by the separating knife 24.
  • the segment ring 30 has for this purpose a central groove 34 into which the separating knife 24 enters when performing the separating cut.
  • the sliding segments 27, 28 permit the (groupwise) displacement of elements for the production of the filter cigarettes 25, namely first the moving apart of the sub-sticks 16, 17 ( Figure 3) and then the moving apart of the filter cigarettes (Figure 7).
  • the distance of the sliding segments 27 28 from each other determines the gap between the part blocks 16, 17 and filter cigarettes 25th
  • a special feature is that during transport of the sections 16 and 17 with filter piece 21 and the cigarette units 23 formed outside the range of the main drum 10, namely above the same, the moving apart sliding segments 27 again at a smaller distance from each other or until the investment on Segment ring 30 are moved back, ie in the position shown in FIG. 7, above. In this position, the finished cigarette units 23 can again be placed on the sliding segments 27, 28.
  • a special feature is the adaptability of the device to different dimensions of the filter pieces 21 or filter 26 or the sub-sticks 16, 17 without conversion of the main drum or a transmission.
  • the procedure is such that the parts resting in the segment troughs 19, 20, in particular partsticks 16, 17, are moved against stops which determine the relative position corresponding to the respective dimensions of the processed elements.
  • the sliding segments 27, 28 are geared to a format-independent movement amplitude set this corresponds to a maximum dimension of filter cigarettes 25.
  • the resting in the segment troughs 19, 20 parts are stopped due to adjustable spacers regardless of the movement of the sliding segments 27, 28 at the correct position.
  • the spacers are in this embodiment (cylindrical) spacer bolts 35, which enter from both sides into the wells, namely segment troughs 19, 20 of the sliding segments 27, 28.
  • the equally spaced spacer bolts 35 arranged on both sides of the main drum 10 lie equiaxially to the segment depressions 19 and, upon movement of the sliding segments 27, 28, enter the segment depressions 19 outwardly.
  • End surfaces of the sub-sticks 16, 17 run against the ends of the spacer bolts 35 and are held in the desired relative position with continued movement of the sliding segments 27, 28 ( Figure 3, top). This position of the sub-sticks 16, 17 results in a gap formed between them in accordance with the length of the filter piece 21st
  • a format change is carried out without replacement of the spacer pin 35 itself, but by changing the relative position of the same in the axis-parallel direction.
  • the spacer bolts 35 are connected for this purpose on both sides of the main drum 10 with support rings 36. These in turn are slidably attached to outer race rings 37 as part of a support frame of the main drum 10.
  • the support rings 36 can be adjusted. By inserting a spacer 38 between the support ring 36 and the fixed ring 37 results in an axial adjustment of the spacer pin 35th Fig. 3, right shows a position with shorter sections 16, 17 or shorter filter pieces 21, while Fig. 3, left, the longer version , namely larger gaps between the sections 16, 17 allows.
  • the spacer bolts 35 are disturbing in the promotion of filter cigarettes 25 in the segment troughs 19, 20, since the filter cigarettes 25 must be brought to a relatively large distance from each other (Fig. 7, bottom).
  • the segment troughs 19, 20 of the main drum 10 are arranged with a small, minimum distance from each other, which corresponds to half the distance of the troughs 18 on feed drum 11, filter drum 12, return drum 13 and discharge drum 14.
  • the relative position of the conveying elements is selected such that the tobacco sticks 15 or sub-sticks 16, 17 are inserted into first segment cavities 19.
  • These first segment troughs 19 are assigned in spaced corresponding spacer bolts 35.
  • the second segment wells 20 remain free in this region of the main drum 10 (FIG. 3).
  • the spacer bolts 35 advantageously have a particular cross-section, which results from FIG. 2.
  • the spacer bolts 35 which are round in cross-section, have a larger cross-section than the diameter of the segment recess 19, 20 in order to better support the part-rods 16, 17.
  • the lower cross-sectional area entering the troughs is provided with a semicircular recess 39 such that the spacer pins 35 extend within the troughs at a distance from the circular bottom of the troughs.
  • FIGS. 8a to 13b A particular alternative for the easier adaptability of the device to different cigarette formats is shown in FIGS. 8a to 13b.
  • the aim is to change the relative position of the sliding segments 27, 28 in their starting position, with the proviso that, given constant amplitudes of movement, different end positions of the sliding segments 27, 28 are accommodated with adaptation to the respective cigarette format.
  • the graphic representation is selected so that Fig. 8a, Fig. 9a .... respectively in juxtaposition a sliding segment 27, 28 for cigarettes of different lengths in different positions, while Fig. 8b, Fig. 9b .... the selected position of the sliding segments 27, 28 corresponding position on the main drum 10, so the respective associated phase of the production show schematically.
  • 8a to 10a show phases in the region between the feed drum 11 and the filter drum 12
  • FIGS. 11a to 13a show the direction of the return drum 13 show the following manufacturing section until the provision of the sliding segments 27, 28 in the region of the feed drum 11.
  • the sliding segments 27, 28 are controllable by a control cam or control groove 40 with respect to the movement.
  • a continuous track control groove 40 enters a connected to the sliding segment 27, 28 feeler a, namely a roller 41.
  • This is connected via a tension and pressure member, namely via a rod 42, with the sliding segment 27, 28.
  • the sliding segment 27, 28 is adjustable relative to the rod 42, to provide a different starting position.
  • FIG. 8a, FIG. 9a shows an alternative for the processing of shorter filter pieces 21, ie an alternative in which a smaller gap is created between the partial blocks 16, 17.
  • This is achieved in that in the initial position (FIG. 8a, top) the sliding segments 27, 28 are already displaced in the direction of the end position. This is achieved by means of a spacer 27 inserted between the sliding segment 27, 28 on the one hand and the segment ring 30. This causes the sliding segment 27, 28 to be at a distance from the segment ring 30 in the initial position, ie already a first movement section in the direction of the lateral end position has completed.
  • the sliding segments 27, 28 are also displaced relative to the uniformly long rod 42, namely by compressing the compression spring 45.
  • the tobacco sticks 15 or sub-sticks 16, 17 are - regardless of the length of the filter piece 21 - always inserted in the same position, namely in the middle of the segment ring 30.
  • the movement process for the respective lower example of the drawing begins, ie without spacer 46, directly, because the movement of the rod 42 is transmitted directly to the sliding segment 27, 28.

  • the axis-parallel displacement of the sliding segment 27, 28, in the end position of FIG. 10a This corresponds to the position of the sub-sticks 16, 17 for inserting the filter piece 21.
  • a smaller distance is created in the upper image than in the lower version without spacers 46.
  • the movements after returning the cigarette units 23 to the main drum 10 from. 11a, FIG. 12a and FIG. 13a shows the embodiment with spacer 46, that is to say with a shorter filter piece 21 or shorter filter 26.
  • FIG. 11a namely in the region of the receptacle of the otherwise completed cigarette units 23, the sliding segments 27, 28 are in the same position, due to the corresponding design of the control groove 40.
  • Fig. 11a also defines a "neutral" position of the organs. In this, the spring, namely compression spring 45, always relaxed, so not compressed. This is due to the dimensions of the organs in conjunction with a corresponding design of the control 40th
  • the filter cigarettes 25 formed are moved apart into the end position according to FIG. 12a.
  • the filter cigarettes 25 have - regardless of the length of the filter 26 - the same distance from each other.
  • the sliding segments 27, 28 are moved back into the starting position for the acceptance of tobacco rods 15 or partial blocks 16, 17, corresponding to FIG. 13a.
