Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cutter device for tobacco products.
  • Manufacturing systems used in the tobacco industry include machines by which continuous cigarette or filter rods are first formed and then cut transversely into discrete sticks of predetermined length.
  • the continuous cigarette rods are divided up by means of a cutter device into single cigarette sticks, each one of which is then associated with a filter tip to produce a filter cigarette.
  • Cutter devices of prior art design positioned along the feed path followed by the continuous rod, comprise a cutter head mounted to a relative rotating shaft and equipped generally with two diametrally opposed blades, also a striker assembly or counterblade, with which the blades are caused to interact, consisting in a rotor linked mechanically to the cutter head and mounted to a shaft rotatable about an axis disposed transversely to the feed direction of the continuous rod.
  • the counterblade comprises a plurality of radial arms, referred to also as lobes, each projecting a given distance and equipped at the free end with a mechanism comprising a tubular element with a transverse slot.
  • the slot affords a passage to the blade at the moment when the cut is made.
  • the tubular elements are positioned singly and in succession along the feed path followed by the continuous rod, each serving thus to support and guide the rod during a relative cutting stroke.
  • the cutter head Given that the sticks must be cut in a plane at right angles to their predominating longitudinal dimension, and that the cut is made with the rod advancing continuously at a predetermined velocity along the feed path, the cutter head must be centred on an axis of rotation inclined at a certain angle relative to the aforementioned longitudinal dimension of the rod, in such a way that the angular velocity of the blade during the cutting stroke will include a component parallel to the feed direction followed by the rod and matching the linear velocity at which the rod advances.
  • the shaft of the cutter head is coupled to the counterblade shaft utilizing a transmission of a type that comprises a drive pulley, connected mechanically to the rotating shaft of the cutter head, a driven pulley coaxial with the counterblade shaft, and a drive belt looped around the two pulleys.
  • the cigarette maker receives a command through its control system to adjust the feed rate of the continuous rod in such a way that single sticks can be cut to the requisite length while maintaining the same angular velocity of the cutter head.
  • the velocity at which the rod advances will be faster or slower than the predetermined velocity aforementioned, depending on whether the new cigarette sticks need to be cut longer or shorter than the predetermined length of the previous run.
  • the inclination of the cutter head axis is also adjusted in such a way that the aforementioned component parallel to the feed direction followed by the advancing rod will match the new linear velocity of the selfsame rod.
  • the striker assembly or counterblade is replaced with a rotor presenting radial arms or lobes of which the radial dimensions are such that the tubular elements will assume a tangential velocity identical to the linear velocity of the advancing rod.
  • the replacement of the striker assembly involves an adjustment to the rotational axis of the counterblade that must make allowance for the change in length of the respective arms, so as to ensure there will be neither interference nor loss of contact between blade and counterblade.
  • the replacement involves a step of timing the action of the cutter device as a whole, and adjusting the tension of the drive belt.
  • the object of the present invention is specifically to create a device for cutting continuous rods of tobacco products, such as will be unaffected by the drawbacks mentioned above.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a cutter device for continuous rods of tobacco products that will favour high hourly output rates even when changing from one product to another, and typically when switching from one cigarette stick to another of different length.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a cutter device for continuous rods of tobacco products, such as will ensure an accurate and repeatable cut of the rod.
  • numeral 1 denotes a cutter device for tobacco products, in its entirety, according to the present invention.
  • the device 1 comprises a cutter drum 2 rotating in an anticlockwise direction, as seen in figure 1 , about an axis T that is angled, or skew, relative to a feed direction B followed by at least one continuous tobacco or filter rod 3.
  • a cutter drum 2 rotating in an anticlockwise direction, as seen in figure 1 , about an axis T that is angled, or skew, relative to a feed direction B followed by at least one continuous tobacco or filter rod 3.
  • two continuous rods 3 advance parallel one with another along the feed direction B toward the device 1, as illustrated in figures 1 and 2 , at a predetermined and constant velocity denoted V1.
  • the cutter drum 2 comprises two peripheral and diametrally opposed blades 4 (one only of the two is visible in the accompanying drawings) by which the two continuous rods 3 are intercepted and, at a given angular velocity of the drum 2, divided into sticks 3a of predetermined length denoted L1.
  • the inclination of the drum axis T, hence of the cutting direction D, is adjusted in conventional manner so that the blade 4 will be displaced along the feed direction B during the cutting stroke at a velocity matching the linear velocity of the advancing rods 3; this ensures that each rod 3 is cut perpendicular to its longitudinal axis.
  • the component of the tangential velocity vector defining the rotational movement of the blade 4, considered along the feed direction B followed by the rods 3, is equal to the velocity vector defining the linear movement of the rod 3.
  • the device 1 comprises a striker assembly or counterblade 5, located above the cutter drum 2 and comprising a rotating shaft denoted 5a, also a carrier element 6 mounted to and rotatable as one with the shaft 5a about an axis C orthogonal to the feed direction B, which turns in an anticlockwise direction as viewed in figure 1 .
  • the counterblade 5 and the drum 2 are supported by a bulkhead 7 forming a part of the frame 7a to which the device 1 is mounted.
  • the carrier element 6 is furnished with four radial arms or lobes 6a of predetermined length ( figure 2 ), each of which furnished at the projecting end with a mechanism 8 capable, when operated by linkages of conventional type not illustrated in the drawings, of pivoting in relation to the relative lobe 6a on a respective secondary axis S ( figure 2 ) parallel to the counterblade axis C.
  • the aforementioned mechanism 8 comprises a pair of hollow prismatic elements 9, each affording a cylindrical groove 10 internally of which a relative rod 3 is accommodated and guided during the cutting steps.
  • the hollow prismatic element 9 further comprises a slot 11, set transversely to the groove 10 and affording a passage to the blade 4.
  • each mechanism 8 rendered thus pivotable about the secondary axis S and rotatable as one with the carrier element 6 about the counterblade axis C, its movement through the cutting area can be maintained straight and parallel to the feed direction B followed by the two continuous rods 3, and its tangential velocity during the cutting stroke matched to the velocity V1 of the advancing rods 3.
  • a block denoted 12 represents actuator means driving a shaft 13 centred on an axis 13a substantially transverse to the skew axis T and parallel to the counterblade axis C, from which motion is transmitted to the cutter drum 2 by way of mechanical means (not illustrated) located internally of a housing denoted 14.
  • a toothed driving member, or gear 15 Keyed to a free end of the shaft 13, projecting beyond the aforementioned bulkhead 7, is a toothed driving member, or gear 15, from which motion is transmitted by way of an auxiliary gear 16, mounted to a pivot 17 centred on an axis 17a parallel with the axis 13a of the aforementioned drive shaft 13, to a driven gear 18 keyed to the shaft 5a of the counterblade 5.
  • the driven gear 18 combines with the counterblade 5 and the shaft 5a, which are set in rotation by the selfsame gear 18, to form an assembly carried by a slide 19 capable of movement in a vertical direction G along the ways 20 of respective slide means 21 fixed to the bulkhead 7.
  • the aforementioned pivot 17 is able, for reasons that will become clear in due course, to assume a plurality of positions relative to the bulkhead 7, each corresponding to a given elevation of the driven gear 18. On assuming each of the positions in question, the pivot 17 is locked to the bulkhead by means of familiar type (not illustrated).
  • the three gears 15, 16 and 18 combine to establish transmission means denoted 22.
  • the transmission means 22 in turn comprise mechanical interconnecting means 23 composed of a first connecting rod 24 by which the drive shaft 13 and its keyed driving gear 15 are linked to the pivot 17 of the auxiliary gear 16, and a second connecting rod 25 by which the pivot 17 is linked to the counterblade shaft 5a.
  • the function of the rods 24 and 25 is to create two links, between the axis 13a of the driving gear 15 and the axis 17a of the auxiliary gear 16, and between the axis 17a of the auxiliary gear 16 and the axis C of the driven gear 18.
  • Numeral 26 denotes means by which to adjust the position of the slide 19 and, accordingly, of the shaft 5a, the driven gear 18 and the striker assembly or counterblade 5.
  • the positioning means 26 in question comprise an actuator 27, mounted to the bulkhead 7 and driving a vertically disposed lead screw 28 coupled by way of a lead nut to the slide 19.
  • the slide 19 can therefore be moved up or down along the aforementioned vertical direction G by causing the lead screw 28 to rotate left or right, as appropriate, in such a way as to position the shaft 5a and the counterblade 5 closer to or farther from the cutter drum 2.
  • the two rods 24 and 25 of the aforementioned interconnecting means 23 are linked one to another by way of the pivot 17, which is movable relative to the bulkhead 7.
  • the rods 24 and 25 serve to accommodate a change in the distance H between the axes denoted C and 13a, hence between the relative shafts 5a and 13, when the counterblade axis C is displaced along the vertical direction G, without any loss of meshing contact between the gears 15, 16 and 18 and consequently without any loss of timing between the shafts 5a and 13.
  • the device 1 comprises clamp means 29 operating actively on the slide 19 in such a way as to lock the rotational axis C of the counterblade 5 in its correct position along the vertical direction G.
  • the slide 19 is of trapezoidal prismatic geometry and therefore presents at least two angled faces on opposite sides.
  • the clamp means 29 comprise a wedge element 30 that extends preferably along the entire length of the slide 19 and is located between the slide and the ways 20.
  • the clamp means 29 comprise at least two bolts 31 passing through respective pairs of holes 32 in the slide 19 and in the bulkhead 7.
  • the holes 32 of each pair are coaxial and allow the respective bolt 31 to pass through the bulkhead 7 to the side opposite from the slide 19.
  • Each bolt 31 presents a first end 31a fashioned with a head 33 designed to locate against the rim of the respective hole 32 in the wedge element 30, on the side opposite from the bulkhead 7.
  • clamp means 29 comprise spring means 34 acting on second ends 31b of the bolts 31 remote from the first ends 33.
  • Spring means 34 are shown in the preferred embodiment of the drawings as belleville discs 35, lodged between lugs 31c presented by the bolts 31, on the one hand, and the bulkhead 7 on the other.
  • the spring means 34 operate between the bolts 31 and the bulkhead 7 and are designed to urge the bolts 31 away from the bulkhead on the side remote from the wedge element 30. Accordingly, the wedge element 30 is forced by the heads 33 of the bolts 31 against the bulkhead 7 and against the ways 20 of the slide means 21 (see figure 4 ).
  • the device 1 further comprises means 36 by which to release the wedge element 30 and allow freedom of movement to the slide 19.
  • the release means 36 comprise an actuator 37, preferably hydraulic, of which an anchored first end 37a is attached hingedly to the bulkhead 7 on the side opposite from the wedge element 30, and an extendible second end 37b is attached hingedly to a crank arm 38.
  • crank arm 38 Also associated with the crank arm 38 is a shaft denoted 39, keyed in such a way that it can be rotated by operating the actuator 37.
  • the shaft 39 is inserted rotatably in an appendage 40 attached rigidly and at right angles to the bulkhead 7.
  • the shaft 39 presents a cam 41, discernible in figure 4 , inserted in a bracket 42 mounted slidably to the appendage 40 in a direction normal to the bulkhead 7.
  • the bracket 42 is placed in contact with the second ends 31b of the bolts 31.
  • the force exerted by the bracket 42 is therefore directed against the force of the spring means 34.
  • the force exerted by the bracket 42 in terms of modulus, is greater than the force exerted by the spring means 34.
  • the slide 19 can be moved so as to alter the distance between the drive shaft 13 and the shaft 5a of the counterblade 5.
  • the actuator 37 causes the cam 41 to rotate in the opposite direction, removing the force exerted by the bracket 42 on the second ends 31b of the bolts 31, whereupon the wedge element 30 is forced by the spring means 34 to resume the position in which the slide 19 is locked.
  • the cigarette maker turns out sticks 3a of which the length L1, at a given angular velocity of the cutter drum 2 and the counterblade 5 about their relative axes of rotation T and C, is determined by the linear velocity V1 of the advancing continuous rods 3.
  • the cutter drum 2 is set at a given angle to the feed direction B followed by the continuous rods 3, so that the relative velocity measurable during the cutting stroke between the blades 4 and the rods 3, advancing along the selfsame feed direction B at linear velocity V1, will be zero.
  • the tangential velocity of the mechanisms 8 by which the rods 3 are retained during the cutting stroke must also coincide with the velocity of the blades 4, measured along the feed direction B; accordingly, the carrier element 6 of the counterblade 5, which is connected mechanically to the cutter drum 2, will be equipped with arms or lobes 6a of length d1 equivalent to a value of tangential velocity matching the linear velocity V1 of the advancing rods 3.
  • the angle of the cutter drum 2 must be adjusted so that the linear velocity of the blades 4 during the cutting stroke, measured along the feed direction B followed by the rods 3, will assume the new value of V2.
  • the carrier element 6 is removed from the shaft 5a and replaced with another element 6 (not illustrated) of shorter radial dimensions, in this instance a replacement with radial arms or lobes 6a of which the length d2 is shorter than the previous length d1, and such that the tangential velocity of the selfsame lobes will match the new linear velocity V2.
  • the new carrier element 6 is mounted to the shaft 5a in the same angular position as the previous element 6, with the aid of reference systems not illustrated in the drawings.
  • the actuator 27 is operated to set the distance between the counterblade shaft 5a and the drive shaft 13, in such a way as will ensure that with each cutting stroke, a hollow prismatic element 9 is positioned correctly to engage and guide the continuous rod 3 relative to a corresponding blade 4.
  • the angle of the cutter drum 2 must be adjusted so that the linear velocity of the blades 4 during the cutting stroke, measured along the feed direction B followed by the rods 3, will assume the new value of V3, and the carrier element 6 will be replaced with another of increased radial dimensions, that is, with radial arms or lobes 6a of length d3 (not illustrated) greater than the previous length d1, so that their tangential velocity will match the new linear velocity V3.
  • the transmission means 22 disclosed, linked by connecting rods 24 and 25, can be displaced without any loss of meshing contact and thus function as timing means by which to maintain synchronous operation of the shaft 13 driving the cutter drum 2 and the shaft 5a carrying the counterblade 5.
  • the distance H between this same axis C and the drive axis 13a is also altered.
  • the operation of the aforementioned timing means synchronizing the drive shaft 13 of the drum 2 and the shaft 5a of the counterblade 5 is unaffected by any variation in the distance H between the respective axes 13a and C of the two shafts.
