Definitions

  • the invention relates to a machine assembly of the tobacco processing industry comprising at least one machine and apparatus for feeding fiber material to the machine, the apparatus comprising a closed pipe housing having a conveyor tube connected on one side to a feed station and on the other side to a material inlet of the machine. and a conveyor for conveying the fibrous material through the conveyor tube from the feed station to the material inlet.
  • the invention further relates to a method for feeding fiber material from a loading station to a material inlet of a machine of the tobacco processing industry.
  • a pneumatic tobacco feeder is known to the Applicant DE 40 27 409 A1 described.
  • the charging device has a lock chamber, in which the tobacco is separated by means of screen surfaces of the conveying air flow.
  • Another pneumatic device for supplying tobacco to a cigarette manufacturing machine is known from US 5,439,062 DE 693 07 898 T2 known.
  • the device has a tangential separator for separating the tobacco from the conveying air flow.
  • the pneumatic conveying of tobacco by means of a conveying air flow through a delivery pipe requires a large fan, which is noisy, takes up a large amount of space and is particularly energy-consuming and costly when using air-conditioned conveying air, and a dust filter or a cleaning system, which is associated with a loss of power.
  • the delivery rate is also dependent on the geographical height in pneumatic conveying.
  • due to the very high conveying speeds an undesirable effect on the tobacco fibers take place, which can lead to a loss of filling power, de-flavoring and generally to quality losses.
  • the different flying speeds of the fibers can lead to an undesirable separation.
  • a non-pneumatic apparatus for feeding cut tobacco into a distribution unit of a cigarette manufacturing machine is known.
  • cut tobacco is fed via an exchangeable container to an introduction funnel in the distributor unit.
  • the container When the container is empty, it can be removed and a new full container placed on the funnel.
  • This type of loading continuously requires during operation a transport of full containers from the tobacco preparation to the cigarette making machine and removal of the empty containers back to the tobacco preparation.
  • the US 2007/0170043 A1 discloses a tube chain conveyor for conveying tobacco leaves with a loading station and at least one dispensing station.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a machine assembly of the tobacco processing industry and a method that allow a reduced, costly and product-friendly promotion of fiber material from the feeding station to the machine.
  • the conveying means is formed by a continuous pulling means running through the pipeline with spaced-apart driving disks, wherein a conveying chamber is formed in each case between two adjacent driving disks.
  • This mechanical promotion can be done with comparatively very low delivery speeds and thus gentler, more homogeneous, with taste and moisture and without loss of filling power.
  • the usually provided for pneumatic promotion lock on material inlet of the machine can be omitted according to the invention.
  • the segregation is low because the promotion in the transport chambers is portioned in the composite. After a standstill immediate delivery without dead time with constant capacity is possible.
  • Other benefits include quiet operation, compact design, lower energy consumption, significantly reduced dust accumulation and thus lower air and environmental pollution.
  • there are extensive mixing possibilities for tobacco mixtures whereby individual components can be conveyed in different delivery chambers.
  • the delivery tube for forming the discharge opening is advantageously opened downwards.
  • the conveyor pipe or the discharge opening are preferably arranged above the material inlet. The falling out of the conveyor tube through the discharge opening fiber material can therefore fall due to gravity without further aids in the material inlet of the machine.
  • the pulling speed of the traction means can be controlled and / or regulated as a function of a processing speed of the machine in order to provide the appropriate amount of fiber material and to transport the fiber material as gently as possible at minimum speed.
  • the dimensions of the delivery opening of the delivery tube preferably correspond to the dimensions of a charge surface for the fiber material in the machine. Furthermore, the discharge opening is preferably arranged parallel to a strand direction in the machine. The discharge opening is preferably openable and closable by means of a controlled flap.
  • a certain proportion of shot cigarettes usually accrue to cigarette manufacturing machines. These are usually conveyed in a wagon. If the wagon is full, it must be picked up with industrial trucks and transported back into the tobacco preparation for reprocessing.
  • a feed opening for feeding shot cigarettes from the machine into the return pipe and at the machine-remote end a discharge opening for discharging the shot cigarettes from the return pipe is provided.
  • the already existing return pipe for returning the empty strand is therefore used to transport the resulting shot cigarettes back into the tobacco preparation.
  • a non-contact readable identification element is provided in the driver disks.
  • This embodiment allows the separate treatment of two or more types of tobacco or mixture components in the conveyor tube, for example, when changing the brand on the cigarette manufacturing machine.
  • a Reading / writing station for contactless reading and / or writing of the identification elements, in particular by radio, provided with information about the content of the tobacco type / component contained in the following conveying chamber.
  • the delivery tube can be supplied to the conveyed fiber material advantageous by metering solid or liquid additives, additives and mixing components.
  • the addition can take place continuously or selectively discontinuously between the driver disks (for example once per transport chamber).
  • the addition is metered depending on the pulling speed of the conveyor chain.
  • Tobacco fibers at room temperature are brittle and quickly lose their original fiber length under mechanical stress. The consequences are increased head loss and loss of hardness. More tobacco needs to be used for compensation, which leads to increased costs.
  • a device is preferably provided for heating the fiber material prior to discharge into the machine.
  • the highest mechanical stress of the tobacco or tobacco fibers takes place in the processing machine, for example a cigarette machine or distributor unit, strand unit, filter piecing. It is therefore advantageous immediately before to heat the tobacco mixture to a temperature of at least 40 ° C, for example 50 ° C. This makes the tobacco fibers smoother and better resistant to impending short-term stress.
  • the material inlet of the machine preceding part of the delivery pipe is double-walled.
  • This heating can be done advantageously by means of a double-walled conveyor tube for the tube chain conveyor.
  • a heating medium in particular hot air or hot water, in the double wall of the tobacco is heated on the way from the feeder to (cigarette) machine and thus advantageously achieved the desired effect for tobacco savings by supple fibers.
  • the fiber material is in particular tobacco, preferably cut tobacco. However, it may also be, for example, a semi-finished product, i. a tobacco-like, synthetically-made fibrous material, or a blend of tobacco with a tobacco-like fibrous material.
  • the invention may be construed as using a tube chain conveyor for feeding tobacco or a fibrous material from a feed station to a material inlet of a machine of the tobacco processing industry.
  • the time of shutdown of the tobacco supply in the feeding station is advantageously sized so that the chain tube still enough fiber material volume is included until completion of the current production, but ideally not much more to avoid additional empty after completion of the current production order or minimize.
  • an electronic control device for performing the method steps described above, in particular for switching off the fiber material feed at the feed station a predefined time before completion of production on the machine so that the tube chain conveyor is emptied during the production operation of the machine, set up or programmed.
