Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for operating a stranding machine and a stranding machine of the tobacco-processing industry.
  • a very uniform strand can be produced and at the same time take off or put into operation and shutdown or put out of operation of the strand machine ensure that components of the strand machine, such as the Saugstrang scaleer and for example, a Saugstrang scaleer arranged suction belt, not with the additive be contaminated, so that significantly increase the service life of the stranding machine.
  • the additive preferably comprises or is a fluid or an extrudate.
  • the additive may, for example, be a pasty mass which is squeezed out or injected under pressure from an additive supply device, for example a nozzle.
  • the additive may in this case be finely atomized, but may also be present as a continuous strip or in the form of strip pieces or smaller chunks or particles or splashes.
  • no additive is dispensed onto the strand material or parts of the stranding machine. It is also possible, when starting the stranding machine, which is to be understood in particular in the context of the invention, a commissioning of the stranding machine, only then provide the supply of additive when strand material is arranged on the Saugstrang makeuper.
  • the supply of additive is interrupted or the additive is released into a collecting container or no additional additive is made available.
  • the additive is supplied to the strand material only shortly before the connection until at the latest to the connection of a gluing of a strip of material enveloping the strand material.
  • the additive is supplied to the strand material at the latest at a time in which the strand material is detected in a strand guiding device.
  • the additive is at a time between the connection of a gluing of a surrounding the strand material Material strip and activating a Strandabellers fed to the strand material.
  • the Strandabeller is usually used when the strand produced has the desired properties and should be transferred for further processing in the processing process.
  • the additive is preferably fed to the strand material at the latest when a strand stripper is activated.
  • the predeterminable amount of strand material can be designed so that in the presence of strand material on the Saugstrang adapter the additive is added and in the case in which no strand material is arranged on the Saugstrang adapter, also no supply of additive takes place.
  • the predeterminable amount can also be a layer of strand material which is substantially opaque, ie in which the suction strand conveyor is substantially completely covered with the material.
  • the additive supply is interrupted or additive is discharged into a collecting container.
  • Such an irregularity is also referred to as choke.
  • strand machine stop In a strand machine stop, when an extruder stop signal is used to stop the additive feed or dump additive into a catch tray, strand machine stop prevents parts of the skein machine from becoming contaminated.
  • the strand material comprises isolated fibers of tobacco or filter material.
  • the object is further achieved by a rod maker of the tobacco processing industry with a first sensor which detects the occupancy of a Saugstrangenseers with strand material, wherein a device for supplying additive (Zusatzstoffzu fürvorraum) is provided to the arranged on the Saugstrang adapter strand material.
  • the stranding machine according to the invention makes it possible to add an additive to the strand material at the right time.
  • the additive feed device is preferably located downstream of the first sensor in order to more accurately determine the moment or moment of supplying additive to the strand material.
  • the supply of additive may be terminated in a timely manner to reduce the amount of strand material which is no longer utilizable.
  • a control device is provided which is connected to the first sensor and / or the second sensor and controls the additive supply device.
  • the strand material comprises fibers of tobacco and / or filter material.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic side view of a portion of a strand machine according to the invention of the tobacco processing industry, wherein by a suction channel 113, the in Fig. 2 is shown, only one side wall or channel wall 103 is shown.

  • the fluid 101 may be a binder, flavor, or other agent, for example, supplied to tobacco or filter material. It may also be an extrudate, which is pressed out of the nozzle opening 110 as a paste-like mass and optionally atomized.
  • a fibrous material such as tobacco or filter fibers is sucked by suction air through a suction chute 113 to a suction belt 106.
  • the suction belt 106 moves in the Fig. 1 from right to left in the suction belt conveying direction 109.
  • This forms a fiber fabric consisting of quenched fibers 107 on the surface of the skimmer 116.
  • the fibers 117 may also be admixed with granules or powder.
  • the transport air stream 108 is in sections curved in the suction channel 113.
  • the fibers 117 are also indicated schematically.
  • Fig. 2 is the embodiment of Fig. 1 shown in a rotated by 90 ° schematic sectional view.
  • the second channel wall 105 is additionally shown, which has a recess 104 with respect to the nozzle device 102.
  • the recess 104 serves to provide no narrowing of the suction channel 113 in the region of the nozzle device 102.
  • the recess is in the conveying direction of the fibers 117, first widening the cross section of the channel 113 and then designed to taper back to the suction belt 106 back. This results in a convex bulge in the channel wall 105th
  • Fig. 3 shows the embodiment Fig. 1 in a schematic plan view in a sectional view tilted 90 ° down.
  • the transitions of the bulge may be contrary to the illustration Fig. 1 be formed without edges.
  • a nozzle or nozzle device 102 is incorporated in the one channel cheek or channel wall 103 and a pocket or recess 104 in the opposite channel cheek or channel wall 105.
  • the device is to be designed such that the already thawed tobacco 107 on the suction belt 106 and the further shudder is not or substantially not influenced.
  • the nozzle device 102 is preferably mounted or arranged on the channel wall 103, which is flowed through by the tobacco stream or material flow, respectively.
  • the nozzle device 102 can be used as a partially flowed volume body, such as in the examples of Fig. 1 to Fig. 3 be formed or as a capillary or as a combination of a partially flowed or full flowed volume body with a capillary, which is not shown. Through the capillary tube, a better backflow of an introduced fluid is made possible.
  • the nozzle devices used are preferably extrusion die devices.
  • the Aufauerte and provided with additive strand material 107 is fed in the direction of arrow 109 a formatting device 126, after the nonwoven fabric 107 was trimmed as usual.
  • the nonwoven fabric is placed on a wrapping strip 121, for example made of paper, which runs on a format strip 127 in the format device 126.
  • the strand material is wrapped with the wrapping strip 121, the wrapping strip 121 is completely wrapped around the strand material and glued, optionally cured and, if the strand is proper, cut to length by the strand stripper 122, so that in the moment of knocking upstream of the stripper provided strand of further processing can be supplied.
  • a first sensor 118 is shown, which detects whether a sufficient amount of strand material 107 is aufauert on the suction belt 106.
  • the sensor 118 may, as shown in FIG Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 is shown to be integrated into the channel wall 105.
  • a corresponding sensor 118 'can also be provided, which also detects whether a sufficient amount of strand material has been thrown on the suction belt 106.
  • the first sensor 118 ' is in the nozzle body 115 of the nozzle device 102 integrated.
  • the first sensor 118 ' is located upstream of the nozzle opening 110.
  • sensors 119 and 119 ' which are intended to detect irregularities in the strand material which may lead to a stop of the strand machine, for example due to congestion of the strand material during insertion into the formatting device. It may be sufficient to provide only a first sensor 118, 118 'and a second sensor 119, 119'.
  • the signals from the sensors 118, 118 ', 119, 119' are fed to a control device 120, which controls the nozzle device 102. This is indicated by dashed lines.
  • the control device 120 also controls the operation of a collecting container 123 or a suction device, which ensures that negative pressure in the collecting container 123, a suction tube 125 and the suction bore 124 prevails, which ensures in the region of the nozzle opening 110 that the fluid 101 through the suction hole 124, the suction tube 125 passes into the collecting container 123.
  • the invention is particularly suitable for preventing or largely avoiding that strand material provided with an additive, for example a tobacco rod, gets into the weft, for example a shredder.
  • an additive for example a tobacco rod
  • the startup times and stop times are to be adjusted to the connection and disconnection of the additive feed.

  • no additive may reach the unoccupied suction belt 106 at the start or at the stop.
  • the Saugbandbelegung over a suitable sensor 118, 118 'interrogated.
  • a sensor 119, 119 'directly behind the nozzle 102 or 110 should detect so-called chokes and terminate the additive addition immediately upon detection of such chokes.
  • Fig. 4 shows a schematic three-dimensional representation of a stranding machine, which is in particular a tobacco rod machine, by means of which a cigarette rod or tobacco rod is produced.
  • a pre-distributor is charged in portions with, for example, tobacco.
  • a removal roller 3 of the pre-distributor 2 fills a storage container 4 with tobacco, from which a steep conveyor 5 takes tobacco and feeds a stowage 6 controlled.
  • From the storage shaft 6 takes a pin roller 7 a uniform stream of tobacco, which is knocked out by a rollover roller 8 of the pins of the pin roller 7 and thrown on a circulating at a constant speed spreading cloth 9.
  • a tobacco fleece formed on the spreading cloth 9 is thrown into a sighting device 11, which consists essentially of an air curtain, the larger or heavier tobacco particles happen, while all other tobacco particles from the air in a funnel formed by a pin roller 12 and a wall 13 14th be steered.
  • the tobacco is thrown into a tobacco channel 16 against a strand conveyor 17 or suction belt conveyor 17, on which the tobacco is held by means sucked in a vacuum chamber air and a tobacco rod is aufauert.
  • a leveler 19 or trimmer 19 removes excess tobacco from the tobacco rod, which is then placed on a run in synchronized cigarette paper strip 21.
  • the cigarette paper strip 21 is withdrawn from a reel 22, passed through a printing unit 23 and placed on a driven format tape 24.
  • the format strip 24 transports the tobacco rod and the cigarette paper strip 21 through a format 26 by folding the cigarette paper strip 21 around the tobacco rod, so that an edge is still projecting, which is glued in a known manner by a Glimapparat, not shown. Then the bond is closed and dried by a Tandemnahtplätte 27.
