Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Distributor or Hopper are part of a cigarette maker (Maker).
  • the cut and otherwise treated tobacco is introduced into the distributor in the area of an (upper) lock, passes through a pre-distributor into the area of the metering system.
  • This consists essentially of a specially designed metering roller, which is fed to the tobacco in a uniform tobacco flow.
  • a sighting of the tobacco is carried out following this or similar trained dosing to eliminate components with higher weight, especially ribs, stems and foreign parts.
  • the tobacco is fed to a strand conveyor, which removes a precisely sized tobacco rod to form cigarettes ( DE 1 532 213 A ; DE 198 40 143 A1 ).
  • classifiers are arranged within the distributor as part of the same. As a result, the effect of viewing may be inadequate.
  • the invention has for its object to provide in the processing of cut tobacco for the production of cigarettes optimal or reliable sighting of the tobacco, so that the performance of the distributor or Hoppers increased or better quality of the tobacco is achieved.
  • the device according to the invention in accordance with the characterizing part of claim 1 is formed.
  • the classifier By disposing a classifier as a separate, stand-alone organ for treating the tobacco prior to entering the manifold or hopper, the classifier can be designed for optimal performance.
  • the distributor / hopper only gets completely covered Tobacco, so that within the distributor the (usual) further processing of the tobacco is facilitated.
  • the inventive construction also allows the retrofitting of classifiers with inadequate quality of sighting already installed distributor.
  • the distributor or hopper shown in the drawings are used for the preparation of cut tobacco. This is introduced in an upper area in the manifold, namely in a lock 10. From this, the tobacco is transferred to a pre-distributor 11. In the area there is a loosening of the tobacco. Thereafter, the tobacco is supplied to a dosing system 12 in different ways. In its area a largely regular tobacco stream 13 is generated, which is supplied in the upward direction to an organ for producing a continuous tobacco rod, namely a suction belt 14th
  • a sifter 15 This organ separates components of the tobacco with higher weight, especially ribs, stems, but also foreign parts such as metal parts, stones, etc., from the tobacco.
  • a classifier 15 is arranged in each case in the conveying direction of the tobacco in front of the metering system 12, so that tobacco which has been produced is supplied to the metering system 12.
  • a special feature is the distributor according to Fig. 1 to 3 , In this, the classifier upstream of the distributor or the lock 10. Concretely, the classifier 15 is positioned as a separate member adjacent to the distributor, in a classifier housing 16. This is connected to the distributor, namely a distributor housing 17. The resulting unit is arranged on a common machine frame 18.
  • the otherwise pretreated, cut tobacco is fed to the classifier 15.
  • a supply line 19 or a feed tube enters the classifier 15 from above in a vertical direction.
  • the processed within the classifier 15 tobacco is introduced in the upper region of the classifier 15 and the classifier housing 16 via a connecting line 20, namely a horizontally directed pipe, in the manifold, in the lock 10.
  • the classifier 15 according to the embodiment of the Fig. 1 to Fig. 3 is designed in a special way, namely as (modified) cone sealers.
  • This consists of an upright, preferably centrally positioned within the classifier housing 16 guide body 21 and a spaced therefrom Leitwandung 22. Between the guide body 21 and the guide wall 22 an upright viewing channel 23 is formed, the shape of which by the contours of the guide body 21 on the one hand and the outer Conduit 22 is determined on the other hand.
  • the guide body 21 is conical, namely consists of two superimposed double cones, which are connected to each other in the region of a cross-sectional constriction 24 to form a unit or to a common guide body 21. This is pointed up and provided at the bottom with a truncated end 25.
  • the baffle 21 is positioned centrally within the classifier housing 16 and surrounded by the baffle 22 so that a - seen in horizontal section - annular viewing channel 23 is formed whose effective transverse dimension over the height is approximately equal, due to adaptation of the baffle 22 at the contours of the guide body 21.
  • the guide wall 22 extends parallel and at a constant distance from the guide body 21st
  • the tobacco is introduced into the classifier 15 via the supply line 19 arranged centrally relative to the guide body 21 and above it.
  • the tobacco moves downwards due to its own weight in the region of the viewing channel 23, along the jacket surface of the guide body 21.
  • the downward movement of the tobacco is counteracted by an air flow supplied from below.

  • the tobacco portion treated in the classifier 15 is collected in the lock 10 and then fed to the actual distributor.
  • the lock 10 has a lower, closable opening.
  • a lock bottom consists of two pivotable flaps 33. These are pivoted to open the lock 10 down. As a result, the entire contents of the lock 10 reaches the area of the pre-distributor 11.
  • the tobacco is supplied in the pre-distributor by a slanted guide wall 34 work organs.
  • the spiked rollers 35 ... 37 are provided with radially directed spines, which cause due to their design and arrangement, a loosening of the tobacco, but also a guiding of the tobacco stream. It is achieved that the tobacco in a loosened tobacco flow in the down tapered collecting tank 38 passes below the pre-distributor 11.
  • spiked roller 37 are arranged so that a larger diameter spiked roller 37 and a smaller spiked roller 36 face each other and form a barrier to the tobacco by mutual engagement of spikes. This can only go down according to the rotational movements of the spiked rollers 36, 37.
  • Another spiked roller 35 is located in an area above the spiked roller 36 and serves to feed the tobacco so that it is mainly conducted to the larger spiked roller 37.
