Definitions

  • the object of the invention is a method and an apparatus for glue application.
  • Machines for manufacturing filter rods for production of filter cigarettes are used in the tobacco industry.
  • the rods containing one type of filter material are formed by cutting a continuous filter rod which is formed by wrapping a tow of filter fibres into a paper wrapper.
  • the rods are cut into a plurality of individual filters applied to cigarettes.
  • Multi-segment rods are formed by cutting a continuous rod which is formed by wrapping multiple segments of different filter materials.
  • a rotary cutting head with knives situated on its circumference is used for cutting.
  • the rods usually are cut off by cutting one of the segments into halves.
  • the multi-segment rods are cut into a plurality of individual filters applied to cigarettes.
  • the first segment is adapted to be held in the mouth by a smoker. It is commonly expected that during smoking the segment will not fall out of the cigarette and fall into the smoker's mouth. With regard to filters made of one material it is also expected that it will not move relative to the paper wrapper. A commonly used method of segment anchoring is gluing them to the paper wrapper.
  • the cigarette manufacturers use various filter materials as well as various filter wrapping materials. A very significant issue from the viewpoint of glue bonding of filter materials and wrapping materials is the spreading of the glue within the space between the glued surfaces and the penetration of the glue into the structure of both the paper wrapper and the filter material.
  • the amount of glue fed and the method of distribution of the glue i.e. how the glue path is to be lead on the surface of the wrapping material before being joined with the filter material, should be considered.
  • a difficult problem to be solved is the selection of the shape of the glue path and the amount of glue in the situation where the wrapping material used is very thin or perforated. If a segment to be wrapped is porous, the glue will soak partly into the segment and partly into the wrapping material; however, if the segment is smooth, the glue will soak into the wrapping material, but also penetrate outside. As a result, the elements on production machines which guide the multi-segment rod as well as the multi-segment rods formed by cutting the rod will be contaminated with the glue. The glue depositing on the elements of the machine has to be removed, which makes it necessary to stop the production machine.
  • the objective of the present invention is to develop such glue feeding method which ensures the reduction of contamination of elements of a production machine.
  • the object of the invention is a method of feeding glue by means of glue nozzles onto a paper wrapper for wrapping the segments of a continuous multi-segment filter rod on a tobacco industry machine for manufacturing multi-segment filter rods, whereas the multi-segment rods are formed by cutting the segments of the continuous multi-segment filter rod.
  • a method according to the invention is characterised in that by means of a swirl nozzle a glue path is formed, whereas the track of the path extends along the paper wrapper and at least one broken line glue path along the paper wrapper is formed, whereas the sections of the broken line glue path are placed at the anchorage points of at least one of the filter segments which are to be cut.
  • a method according to the invention is characterised in that parallel a plurality of broken line glue paths is formed.
  • the object of the invention is also an apparatus for feeding glue by means of glue nozzles onto a paper wrapper for wrapping the segments of a continuous multi-segment filter rod on a tobacco industry machine for manufacturing multi-segment filter rods, whereas the multi-segment rods are formed by cutting the segments of the continuous multi-segment filter rod.
  • An apparatus is characterised by being provided with a set of at least two glue nozzles where the first glue nozzle is a swirl nozzle forming a glue path the track of which extends along the paper wrapper, whereas the second glue nozzle is a linear nozzle forming at least one broken line glue path along the paper wrapper, whereas the glue sections of the broken line glue path are placed at the anchorage points of at least one of the filter segments which are to be cut.
  • Fig. 1 shows a fragment of a machine for manufacturing multi-segment rods.
  • Rod like articles 1 are fed onto a paper wrapper 2 from any segment feeding device which has not been shown.
  • the element directly placing the segments onto the paper wrapper may be a delivery wheel 3.
  • the machine for manufacturing multi-segment rods is provided with a conveyor 5 on which the paper wrapper 2 moves together with the tape 6.
  • the segments 1 are anchored relative to the paper wrapper 2 by means of glue.
  • the glue is fed onto the paper wrapper before placing the segments onto it by means of two nozzles 4 and 4A, whereas one of them is adapted to feeding the glue in a swirl manner and the other in a linear manner.
  • a continuous multi-segment rod is formed to be cut into individual multi-segment rods 7 by means of a cutting head 8 provided with knives 9.
  • Fig. 2 shows a sequence of segments 11, 12 and 13, put together on the production machine, which are wrapped into the paper wrapper, whereas the segments are shown in a sectional view.
  • the segment 11 has a porous outer surface into which the glue easily soaks
  • the segments 12 and 13 have a smooth, for example paper surface into which the glue soaks with more difficulty than in case of the segments 11.
  • Fig. 3 shows a paper wrapper onto which a sequence of segments of fig. 2 will be placed, whereas the paper wrapper has applied glue paths 14 and 15.
  • the glue path 14 is applied by means of a swirl nozzle 4.
  • the loops of the glue path 14 forming due to the longitudinal movement of the paper wrapper may intersect.
  • the subsequent loops can be separate.
  • the track 16 of the path 14 is situated along the paper wrapper 2.
  • the glue path 15 is a broken line glue path also disposed along the paper wrapper 2.
  • the glue sections are applied at points at which the segments 11 will be placed and anchored, whereas the arrangement of glue sections of the glue line 15 in fig. 3 corresponds to the position of the segments 11 in fig. 2 .
  • Fig. 4 shows a paper wrapper onto which a sequence of segments of fig. 2 will be placed, whereas three broken line glue path 15 are applied on the paper wrapper.
  • the number and the width of the glue paths 15 can be freely selected depending on the surface structure of the segments 11.
  • Fig. 5 shows a sectional view of a finished individual multi-segment filter 17 which will be formed of the segments 11, 12 and 13.
  • the segment 12 is not cut, the segment 11A is formed by cutting the segment 11 into halves; similarly, the segment 13A is formed by cutting the segment 13 into halves.
  • the segments 11A, 13A and 12 are anchored relative to the paper wrapper 2 by means of the glue on the glue path 14, whereas the segments 11A are anchored relative to the paper wrapper 2 additionally by means of the glue on the glue path 15.
  • Fig. 6 shows a cigarette comprising a tobacco portion 18 with a glued filter 17 of fig. 5 the last segment 11A of which on the side 19 supposed to be put in the smoker's mouth, is glued considerably stronger than the other segments.
