Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for stuffing prefabricated cigarette tubes, with a housing, a tobacco chamber, a tobacco associated therewith, a movable pressing beam for forming the tobacco in the tobacco chamber inserted tobacco into a strand, one of the tobacco support associated Wiglerer for one end of the tobacco rod and a slider for filling the cigarette tube with the tobacco rod relative to the housing movable, wherein the length of the tobacco rod to be formed is adaptable by changing the length of the press beam to different Mountain lengths of cigarette tubes.
- Such a device is known from DE 41 10 830 C1.
- the abutment is designed as an adjustable part in the longitudinal direction of the tobacco support, for which at least two predetermined latching points are provided corresponding to the number of cigarette tubes of different lengths to be stuffed. Positions are provided.
- a disadvantage of this device is that it is expensive to manufacture due to the adjustable design of the abutment.
- the invention is therefore based on the object, a device for stuffing prefabricated cigarette tubes of the type described above further educate the fact that their functionality is improved.
- the tobacco support is displaceably mounted relative to the abutment by a distance in the direction of movement of the slide, which approximately corresponds to the length difference of the different filling space lengths, it is no longer necessary to make the abutment adjustable and lockable in certain positions.
- the length of the tobacco chamber can automatically adapt to the filling space length of the cigarette tube.
- the pressing beam may comprise a fixed part and a movable part optionally complementary to the pressing beam.
- the movable part of the press beam about a perpendicular to the movement direction of movement of the slider extending axis between a retracted in the contour of the lid and a pressing bar extending position by about 90 ° is pivotable.
- the movable part of the beam does not appear visually or disturb the operability of the device according to the invention, since it appears either as the filling space length-increasing part of the press beam or not as a protruding component from the outer contour of the device.
- the operation of the movable part of the press beam is again simplified if an actuator for the movable part of the press beam is provided on the cover.
- This can-particularly preferably-comprise a toothing, which is in engagement with a toothing of the movable part of the press beam. Due to this measure, it is no longer necessary for the displacement of the movable part of the press beam to transfer it directly from one to the other position, which, in particular, when it is to be moved from the retracted to the supplementary position, special difficulties, but the displacement can be done by actuating the actuator, for example, in an ergonomically advantageous manner with the help of the thumb.
- the actuating member and the pressing beam have interlocking teeth, wherein the toothing of the slider is a linear toothing and that of the movable part is a part of a toothed wheel, whose axis of rotation with the axis about which the movable part of the press beam is pivotable coincides.
- the tobacco chamber is preferably assigned a cover with which the region of the tobacco chamber adjoining the abutment can optionally be covered over a length approximately equal to that of the tobacco chamber Length difference corresponds to the different Greraum lengths.
- the volume under the cover is at least essentially not filled when the tobacco is introduced, so that overfilling of the antechamber of the cigarette tube or undesirably high compression of the tobacco is reliably prevented.
- the cover is arranged displaceably in the direction of movement of the slide in the tobacco chamber, since thus match the operating directions of all devices of the device with the direction of movement of the slider, whereby the handling of the device according to the invention for the user is particularly intuitive and simple.
- the device may comprise a spout arranged at the end of the spool opposite the abutment, whose outer diameter corresponds approximately to the inner diameter of a cigarette tube and which has a substantially cylindrical inner volume.
- the cigarette tube is held on the spout by a provided on the lid, on the cigarette tube material from the outside acting projection and pulled over the located in the tobacco chamber tobacco rod, which passes through the inner volume of the spout during this displacement or stuffing ,
- the mountability of the spout on the slider is particularly simple if the spout - as preferred - is integrally formed on an approximately perpendicular to its longitudinal axis extending retaining plate.
- the slider then preferably has two on its sides oppositely arranged grooves in which the holding plate with its lateral edges can be inserted.
- This structural measure not only enables the particularly easy mountability of the spout, but also an easy to replace in the event of damage.
- the spout can be made of a different material compared to the slider, which has, for example, for holding the cigarette tube and for carrying out the tobacco rod particularly suitable material properties.
- the widening towards the transport chamber area may be conical. However, it is particularly preferred if it is formed curved widening.
- Fig. 1 is a perspective view with the lid open
- Figure 2 is the same view of the parts of the housing in an exploded view.
- Fig. 3 is the same view as in Fig. 1, but in a single representation of
- FIG. 4 shows the cover in a view according to FIG. 3 in an exploded view
- Fig. 5 is a perspective longitudinal section through the device set for cigarette tubes with a long filling space
- Fig. 6 shows the same view as in Fig. 5, adapted to cigarette tubes with a shorter filling space length and
- Fig. 7a to e the spout with plate in a single representation in different views.
- the device 100 in the drawing as a whole comprises a housing 1 with a base part 2 and with inserted and latched in this side handle parts 3, 4. Both the base part 2, as well as the side handle parts 3, 4 are made of plastic.
- the handle parts 3, 4 may be made of a softer material than the base part 2 and in a different color, so as to improve the visual appearance of the device and to make their handling more pleasant.
- a slider 8 is guided in a straight line in the direction of movement S between its inner side walls 5, 6 and its bottom wall 7.
- the slider 8 comprises on both sides an extension of the underside forming projections 9, which engage in complementary grooves in the side walls 5, 6.
- the outer diameter of such an inner diameter of a prefabricated cigarette tube se is adapted that it can be pushed onto the spout 10 without much game.
- the free end of the spout 10 is laterally bevelled.
- the spout 10 is formed with its the side beveled free end opposite end to a support plate 32.
- grooves 33 are incorporated in the slide (see Fig. 1) in which the retaining plate with its lateral edges 34 can be inserted.
- 34 hook-like protruding extensions 36 are provided on the lateral edges, which cooperate with the bottoms of the grooves 33 by clamping.
- the inner volume of the spout 10 at the end region opposite the free end comprises a region 35 which widens toward the tobacco chamber 13.
- a lid 11 is pivotably attached to the slider 8 about a horizontal axis X extending perpendicularly to the direction of movement S.
- the slider has an elongated recess 12 in the direction of movement S, which forms a tobacco chamber 13 and extends completely through the slider in the vertical direction.
- the bottom of the tobacco chamber 13 forms a trough-shaped tobacco pad 14, which abuts the side almost of the side walls of the recess 12 and the lateral edges of longitudinal projections 15 are covered in the tobacco chamber, so as to avoid tobacco between the lateral edges of the tobacco pad and the Walls of the recess 12 passes.
- the tobacco support 14 is made of a dimensionally stable material, for example metal and attached in the rear, protruding from the tobacco chamber 13 region 16 on a provided on the bottom wall 7 of the base part 2 pedestal 17 attached. In this case, there is sufficient play between the underside of the tobacco support 14 and the bottom wall 7, that the tobacco support 14 when moving the slider 8 can penetrate unhindered back through the spout 10 therethrough.
- a pressing beam 18 is formed, the side of which, when closed, points approximately hollow with the same radius as the tobacco support 14.
- the pressing beam 18 is further dimensioned so that it coincides with the side walls of the recess 12 and the tobacco pad 14, the tobacco chamber 13 in the closed state closes up so that the tobacco chamber has an approximately circular shape in cross section.
- a handle 19 which can be displaced towards the rear against an elastic force, is attached to the lid. It has two extensions 20 which engage in against the elastic force to the rearward displaced state of the handle in complementary recesses 21 of the slider 8. By the engagement of the extensions 20 in the recesses 21, the lid is locked against folding about the axis X.
- the tobacco chamber 13 is loosely filled with tobacco when the lid 11 is open. Subsequently, the open end of a prefabricated cigarette tube is pushed onto the spout 10 and the lid 11 is closed by pivoting about the axis X.
- the cigarette tube not shown in the drawing, is held in position on the grommet by pressing on the front portion of the lid 1 1 Anpress- block 22, the sleeve material over part of the circumference against the spout 10 is pressed.
- the length of the press bar 18 can be changed.
- the pressing beam 18 has a fixed part 24 and a pressing member 18 optionally complementary, movable member 25. It is in the cover 11 on the side of the fixed part 24 facing the axis X, about an axis Y which is perpendicular to the direction of movement S of the slider or parallel to the axis X, between a position retracted in the contour of the cover 11 6) and a position extending the pressing beam 18 (see Fig. 5) can be pivoted by approximately 90 °.
- the toothing 27 is in engagement with a linear toothing 28 of an actuator 29 which is mounted displaceably within the lid 11 perpendicular to the axis Y and manually displaceable by a recess 30 in the lid 11 by a distance which is required to the moving part 25 of the press bar 18 between the illustrated in Fig. 5, the pressing bar 18 extending position and the position shown in Fig. 6, to be moved back into the contour of the lid 11 position.
- the tobacco support 14 does not protrude beyond the Basham length which in particular filter sleeves to a tear from the spout 10 or to destroy the filter sleeve the tobacco support 14 is displaceable relative to the abutment 23 by a distance in the direction of movement S of the slide 8, mounted on the base 17 and corresponding to the difference in length between the different filling space lengths and the length. speaks by the pressing bar 18 by the movable part 25 is extended or shortened.
- This "floating" storage of tobacco support 14 has the consequence that it moves during the tamping process by friction with the tobacco rod located in the tobacco rod and the sleeve automatically in the rear position, so that at the end of stuffing cigarette tubes with short Artraum- Length can not be damaged, and in the backward displacement of the slide for withdrawing the filled sleeve of the tobacco pad 14 latter relocated again in the pulled-out position and thus another filling process of the tobacco chamber 13 for cigarette tubes with large Brown- length to Available.
- a tobacco chamber 13 associated cover 31 is provided on the slide 8, with the optional adjacent to the abutment 23 area the tobacco chamber 13 can be covered over a length which corresponds to the difference in length of the different filling space lengths or the change in length of the pressing bar 18 that can be brought about by the movable part 25.
- the cover is displaced into the position shown in Fig. 5, the volume of the tobacco chamber 13 completely releasing position. If a cigarette tube with a smaller filling length is to be stuffed, the cover 31 towards the nozzle 10 is brought into the position shown in FIG. 6 before the tobacco is inserted into the tobacco chamber 13.
