Definitions

  • the invention relates to a conveyor arrangement for a machine of tobacco processing Industrial, with a conveying device, a plurality of themselves in a conveying direction moving conveyor elements for conveying and / or singulating a fibrous Product has.
  • From DE 100 08 961 A1 is a separating device with rotating rake known, being arranged on the circumference of the formed as a hollow pins computing tines Air nozzles blow air jets escape to the distribution effect of the rake tines to reinforce.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a conveyor arrangement, with the improved separation of the product fibers can be achieved.
  • the invention solves this problem in particular by the fact that the conveyor assembly in Area of the conveying elements at least one fixed nozzle for blowing a Medium in the opposite direction to the conveying direction.
  • the injected medium exerts a separation of the product fibers causing shearing forces on that of the conveyor elements taken away product.
  • the injected medium can be a gas stream, in particular of air, water vapor or a mixture thereof, or another suitable medium.
  • the medium for spraying a conditioning medium in liquid or gaseous form or a mixture thereof for the product serve.
  • a preferred conditioning medium is water vapor.
  • Other possible conditioning media For example, carbon dioxide is used in the tobacco industry Flavorings, sauces consisting of solids dissolved in liquid such as Sugar, humectants such as glycol, or pure gases such as Nitrogen, or a mixture of these media.
  • the conveyor may serve to convey or singulate the product.
  • the term conveying device therefore also includes a separating device whose Main function in the separation of the product fibers lies.
  • the conveying direction is at a rotating conveyor usually the circumferential direction.
  • the exit direction of the The medium emerging from the nozzle is therefore essentially counter to this circumferential direction directed.
  • the arrangement of the nozzle in the region of the conveying elements means that from the nozzle escaping medium essentially on the entrained by the conveyor elements Product meets.
  • the nozzle is in the region of a free end of the conveying elements arranged to remove the product from the conveyor elements to blow off and thereby improve the separating effect.
  • Fixed nozzle means relative to the conveyor assembly or to a conveyor surrounding housing fixed.
  • the invention is delimited to nozzle openings in the moving conveyor elements themselves, as in the DE 100 08 961 A1, or in itself with the conveying elements moving parts of the conveyor, such as the nozzles in the roll body of the Winnover roll according to EP 0 895 721 B1.
  • These known nozzles are not suitable, the inventive To achieve the dicing effect of tobacco fibers.
  • the invention fixed nozzle can be arranged on a housing surrounding the conveyor be; however, this is not necessarily the case.
  • the invention is not on rotating conveyors limited. It is also conceivable, for example, the application to a linear Conveyor, such as a belt conveyor, with extending over the width of the belt Feeder rakes. Preference is furthermore the application of the invention to a as Conditioning device for applying a conditioning medium to the product trained conveyor.
  • a conveyor assembly 10 includes a closed conveyor channel 22 for conveying a tobacco product entering at 24 through the opening 18 in a current dryer 17.
  • a conveying device in the form of a rotating Winnover roller 11 arranged.
  • On the roller body 16 axial rows are tine-shaped arranged radial pins 12 which form rotating rake to the tobacco product 13 foundedlockern by mechanical action or to separate.
  • the direction of rotation The Winnoverwalze 11 therefore forms the conveying direction F of the tobacco product 13 in Range of Winnoverwalze 11.
  • the roller body 16 and / or the pins 12 can hollow and with nozzle openings for applying a conditioning medium be provided on the tobacco product, as in EP 0 895 721 B1 and DE 100 08 961 A1 is described.
  • the Winnover roller 11 is of a part of the conveying channel 22 forming housing 20 surrounded.
  • nozzles 14 are arranged, through which a gas flow 15th is injected substantially tangentially into the interior of the housing 20.
  • the illustrated two nozzles 14 may also only one or a plurality of nozzles 14 may be provided along the circumference of the Winnoverwalze 11.
  • the nozzles 14 can as a nozzle bar, i. in an over the axial width of the Winnoverwalze 11 extending, axially parallel nozzle channel 23 may be formed. It can be a A plurality of nozzles 14 extending across the nozzle channel 23 or one or more elongate, over the nozzle channel 23 extending nozzles 14 act.
  • the nozzle channel 23 is applied, for example, with compressed air, so that from the nozzles 14th Exiting air forms an air flow 15, which is approximately tangential to the envelope or the fictitious outer circumference of the Winnoverwalze 11 and therefore approximately opposite Conveying direction F is oriented.
  • the air flow 15 is substantially in the in Fig. 1st Dashed area shown directed, for example, an opening angle of May have 15 °.
  • Guiding means 21 for example guide plates, provided at the opening of the nozzles 14 be; however, this is not mandatory.
  • the air flow 15 meets the particular from the free ends 19 of the pins 12 entrained tobacco product 13 and exercises on this shear forces, the a loosening, separation and homogenization cause the fibers of the tobacco product 13. This allows a more even Drying of the tobacco product 13 in the flow dryer 17 and thereby an improved Drying result can be achieved.
  • the air flow 15 passes along the inner wall of the housing 20 along and prevents thereby depositing tobacco material on the inner wall of the housing 20, thereby as a further advantage of the invention downtime due to required cleaning the inner wall of the housing 20 can be reduced.
