Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a tray emptying method, the tray being filled up with rod-like elements transported to farther operating work-stands of a cigarette production line.
  • Known production lines designed for production of cigarettes and packaging thereof or cigarette filters include a machine or group of machines designed for production of cigarettes or filters , a machine or group of machines to join the cigarette filters and cigarettes together and cigarette packaging machine.
  • various store systems are applied to maintain continuity of the cigarette production.
  • One example of such systems is a tray system, wherein cigarettes and/or cigarette filters are stored, the trays being filled up with cigarettes or filters at exit of a cigarette or filter-producing machine.
  • the filled up trays are unloaded into a hopper of cigarette packaging machine or cigarette filter attaching machine.
  • An intermediate store is applied to unload trays where from rod-like elements are transferred onto conveyor that transports them to the above mentioned hopper.
  • a cigarette transport method and device wherein cigarettes are transferred by means of trays from production machine to intermediate store, wherein they are unloaded, and then transported on receiving conveyor to a hopper of a packaging machine.
  • the intermediate store is divided with partition elements into many vertical paths of cigarette flow; neighboring each other, and to each path has an appropriate supporting element.
  • the supporting element together with cigarettes moves from the store top downward.
  • the partition elements are shaped like teardrops and have a comb-like design. Cutouts of supporting elements that are formed like flat combs enter into and between protruding ribs of the comb like design. Cutouts of supporting element are shaped like a flat comb.
  • movable vertical sidewall of the intermediate store runs together with conveyor that removes cigarettes toward hopper of the packaging machine.
  • Length of partition elements is smaller than the intermediate store height, and the shortest element is located nearest to the above movable vertical sidewall. Length of subsequent elements gradually increases and the longest element end is significantly away from the receiving conveyor.
  • cigarettes transported to hopper are shaped as a layer, which in principle corresponds to movable sidewall height of the intermediate store, while the layer height is kept up by the moving sidewall until the layer finally arrives at the hopper.
  • Other tray unloading method the trays being filled with rod-like elements, especially with cigars, and device designed for application of that method, are presented in European patent specification EP 1,308,101 .
  • the tray filled up with cigars is placed on movable supporting surface by means of special gripping device the tray top opening being directed downwards to the surface and temporarily protected with a protective shield, the above supporting surface being provided with movable throat which has width smaller than the width of the tray top opening but bigger than single cigar diameter.
  • the movable supporting surface forms a bottom of enclosure. It has width a little greater than the total width of two trays that form entry stand and exit stand.
  • a receiving conveyor is located below the supporting surface. A Tray that arrived at the entry stand, after removal of the protective shield, is unloaded through the throat and cigars fall out onto the conveyor and are transported to the hopper of the packaging machine.
  • This invention relates to tray emptying method for tobacco industry where rod-like elements are transferred by gravitation simultaneously from a tray to many segments of an intermediate store, the segments being separated from each other with vertical partition walls of the intermediate store, and the store being an equivalent to one volumetric tray capacity, and then the rod-like elements are transferred onto movable receiving conveyor located below.
  • the vertical segments of the intermediate store filled up with rod-like elements and independent of each other are emptied through a throat formed in the intermediate store base, while the intermediate store, the base and the throat reciprocate, independently of each other, along the receiving conveyor so that consecutive segments of the intermediate store could meet the throat, and the sequence of segment emptying is in backward relationship to the receiving direction of rod-like elements at the receiving conveyor.
  • Rod-like elements are placed onto the receiving conveyor through a profiled chute firmly connected to the throat, wherein the throat with its area that corresponds in size to the horizontal cross section of a segment of the intermediate store each time receives elements from only one consecutive segment.
  • a sensor monitors complete segment emptying. Widths of emptied segments correspond to the layer height of mass flow of rod-like elements placed on the receiving conveyor.
  • the throat together with chute moves concurrently to the receiving direction of rod-like elements placed on the conveyor and at conveyor velocity, the layer height of rod-like elements remaining unchanged at the site close under the throat level until the throat arrives at the site before the first segment of intermediate store, the latter being meantime loaded with rod-like elements from a consecutive tray.
  • the intermediate store executes its short-term plane motion concurrently with the throat movement and the receiving direction of rod-like elements at velocity higher than that of receiving conveyor so that throat could meet the first segment of intermediate store and ensure the emptying possibility, wherein the intermediate store partly moves out beyond the tray unloading sector.
  • Unloading of a consecutive tray in sequence takes place during the emptying operation of the last segment at a rate not higher than emptying rate of that segment and also at any rate during the motion of the throat together with the chute concurrently with the receiving direction of rod-like elements, wherein the throat velocity equals velocity of the receiving conveyor.
  • the receiving conveyor is continuously in motion at established direction.
  • the throat together with chute moves concurrently to the receiving direction of rod-like elements placed on the receiving conveyor, and at the conveyor velocity, while the rod-like element layer height is unchanged close under the throat level until the throat arrives at the site before the first segment of the intermediate store that meantime was loaded with rod-like elements from a consecutive tray, and at the time, a short-term stop of the throat together with the chute follows, whereas the intermediate store is in plane motion concurrently to the receiving direction of rod-like elements so that throat could meet the first segment of the intermediate store and ensure its emptying possibility, wherein the intermediate store partly moves out beyond the tray unloading sector.
  • any next consecutive segment emptying follows after receiving enable signal, wherein the throat is each time positioned before a next segment to be emptied, but the mutual position of throat and the segment shall be determined considering direction opposite to the receiving direction of rod-like elements.
  • Unloading of a consecutive tray in sequence takes place during emptying of the last segment at a rate not higher than emptying rate of that segment and at any rate during movement of the throat thogether with chute concurrently to the receiving direction of rod-like elements, wherein throat velocity equals to that of the receiving conveyor.
  • the receiving conveyor continuously moves forward at the established direction.
  • the throat together with chute moves in concurrent relationship to the receiving direction of rod-like elements on the receiving conveyor, at conveyor velocity, while the layer height of rod-like elements close under throat level is not changed until the throat arrives at site before the first segment of the intermediate store that meantime was loaded with rod-like elements from a consecutive tray. Then a short-term stop of the throat together with the chute follows and the receiving conveyor stops as well.
  • the intermediate store is in plane motion at concurrent relationship to the receiving direction of rod-like elements so that the throat could meet the first segment of the intermediate store and ensure the emptying possibility, wherein the intermediate store partly moves out beyond the tray unloading sector.
  • the receiving conveyor starts up, and return of the intermediate store and the throat together with the chute follows in backward relationship to the receiving direction of rod-like elements, at equal velocity, to the tray unloading sector, where the complete emptying of the first segment takes place.
  • emptying of each consecutive segment will follow after receipt of enable signal, wherein each time the throat is positioned before a next segment to be emptied, while so as to determine mutual position of the throat and the segment it is necessary to consider opposite direction to the receiving direction of rod-like elements.
  • Unloading of a next tray in sequence takes place during the last segment emptying at a rate not higher than that of the last segment emptying and at any rate during movement of the throat together with the chute and at concurrent relationship to the receiving direction of rod-like elements, wherein the throat velocity equals the receiving conveyor velocity.
  • the receiving conveyor that moves at the established direction is periodically stopped.
  • the preferred embodiment according to this invention allows to form on the receiving conveyor a mass flow out of the rod-like elements collected in a tray, wherein rod-like elements move from a wide duct i.e. the tray itself, to many smaller segments, while each of the segments is the emptied independently on the others.
