  • the invention further relates to a device for producing a filter strand of the tobacco processing industry comprising a conveying element can be applied to the filter material and a strand forming device for forming a filter strand of the filter material, wherein the conveying element extends into the strand forming device.
  • a corresponding method and a corresponding device are known from DE-OS-1 692 901.
  • a method of manufacturing tobacco smoke filters in which substantially continuous filament material is produced by spray spinning which is conveyed against a continuously moving collecting surface arranged at an angle to the spraying path, whereby an elongate strip of randomly arranged filament sections results and parts of the belt are laterally moved relative to each other to form an endless filter strand therefrom.
  • various additives can be added to the thread material by known methods.
  • the thread material used can be cellulose acetate threads or filaments of polyethylene and polypropylene.
  • the at least one first type of filter material is pressed by means of compressed air through the at least one nozzle.
  • the curling effect of the resulting filter material threads can be increased.
  • an efficient filter strand production is given by the fact that the filter filaments from the at least one first type filter material are applied to a conveying element, which transports the filter material shortly thereafter by a shaping device, so that the process parameters can be adjusted without problems such that during the molding of the filter strand the filter material is still plasticized. As a result, little or no additional energy in the shaping is necessary.
  • the filter properties are then markedly improved if at least one second type of filter material in the form of pellets, granules and / or powder is fed to the at least one first type of filter material following the extrusion out of the at least one nozzle.
  • the second type of filter material may be, for example, activated carbon granules or powders or pellets. However, flavorings or other additives may also be used.

  • the applied layer has a width sufficient to cover the further filter material
  • the applied layer can replace a strip of wrapping material.
  • the applied layer is wound around the further filter material.
  • the layers and optionally the layers are joined together with the further filter material in the molding device. This is preferably done by adding heat and corresponding pressure, which already affects the filter material by the shaping.
