Definitions

  • the tobacco corridors of today's cigarette makers are all equipped with a perforated tape whose width of contact between the tobacco and the ribbon does not exceed the width of the corridor (minimum 8.5 mm and maximum 9.2 mm).
  • the transported flow being on average 9.2x15mm thick. This is the layer of tobacco that is in contact with the filter tape that supports all the traction and speed efforts (about 2 to 3mm, about 20%). This results in a significant degradation of the tobacco transported.
  • the present invention relates to the ceiling of the tobacco corridor allowing the use of perforated ribbons whose width will be at least half of the circumference of the cigarette without increasing the width of the corridor.

Abstract

The passage (2) includes a perforated tape (1) that is laminated on the concave or polygonal rollers supported laterally by upper rules (3). The edges of the passage are housed and guided in to the passage rules (4).

Description

Les couloirs tabac des confectionneuses à cigarettes actuelles sont tous équipés d'un ruban perforé dont la largeur de contact entre le tabac et le ruban ne dépasse pas la largeur du couloir (8,5mm au minimum et 9,2mm au maximum). Le flot transporté étant en moyenne de 9,2x15mm d'épaisseur. C'est la couche de tabac qui est en contact avec le ruban filtrant qui supporte tous les efforts de traction et de vitesse (environ 2 à 3mm, soit environ 20%). Il en résulte une dégradation significative du tabac transporté.
La présente invention concerne le plafond du couloir tabac permettant l'utilisation de rubans perforés dont la largeur sera d'au moins la moitié de la circonférence de la cigarette sans augmenter la largeur du couloir.The tobacco corridors of today's cigarette makers are all equipped with a perforated tape whose width of contact between the tobacco and the ribbon does not exceed the width of the corridor (minimum 8.5 mm and maximum 9.2 mm). The transported flow being on average 9.2x15mm thick. This is the layer of tobacco that is in contact with the filter tape that supports all the traction and speed efforts (about 2 to 3mm, about 20%). This results in a significant degradation of the tobacco transported.
The present invention relates to the ceiling of the tobacco corridor allowing the use of perforated ribbons whose width will be at least half of the circumference of the cigarette without increasing the width of the corridor.

Avantages de l'invention:

  • 1. Le boudin est préformé dans sa partie supérieure en contact avec le plafond du couloir et entouré du ruban filtrant. On obtient ainsi une surface de portée et de traction supérieure de 60% réduisant donc la dégradation du tabac transporté.
  • 2. Diminution des arrêts de production dus à des bourrages tabac dans le couloir.
    • Advantages of the invention:
  • 1. The flange is preformed in its upper part in contact with the ceiling of the corridor and surrounded by filter tape. This results in a greater reach and traction area of 60% thus reducing the degradation of the tobacco transported.
  • 2. Decrease in production stops due to tobacco jams in the corridor.

    • Claims (1)

    Couloir tabac à plafond sphérique ou polygonal permettant une largeur de ruban tabac perforé supérieure sans changer la largeur du couloir. Figure 1, plafond sphérique: Le ruban perforé (1) est plaqué sur les galets concaves du couloir (2) épaulé latéralement par les règles supérieures (3) et les bords sont logés et guidés dans les règles couloir (4). Figure 2, plafond polygonal: Le ruban perforé (1) est plaqué sur les galets polygonaux du couloir (2) épaulé latéralement par les règles supérieures (3) et les bords sont logés et guidés dans les règles couloir (4). Tobacco corridor with spherical or polygonal ceiling allowing a superior perforated tobacco ribbon width without changing the width of the corridor. Figure 1, spherical ceiling: The perforated tape (1) is pressed against the concave rollers of the corridor (2) laterally supported by the upper rulers (3) and the edges are housed and guided in the corridor rules (4). Figure 2, polygonal ceiling: The perforated tape (1) is pressed onto the polygonal rollers of the corridor (2) laterally supported by the upper rulers (3) and the edges are housed and guided in the corridor rules (4).
