Definitions

  • the invention relates to a filling system for filling a tobacco product cartridge with a filling.
  • a filling system is off US-A-2012/0167906 known.
  • additional substances play an increasing role.
  • additional substances may be flavorings.
  • activated carbon or similar substances are also suitable for reducing the pollutant content in the smoke.
  • a smoking article cartridge that can be used in a cigarette, a whistle, an electrical replacement device or the like, and containing a corresponding filling.
  • a smoking article cartridge comprises a cartridge case, which has an air-permeable retention membrane on the front side, and which is also filled with the particular active substance-containing filling material.
  • a smoking article cartridge is used so that the retaining membrane faces the user, and that the smoke is sucked through the smoking article cartridge.
  • the smoke or vapor passing through the smoking article cartridge may be appropriately flavored and / or filtered while the active ingredient is retained at the containment membrane and does not enter the respiratory tract of the user.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a filling system for filling a smoke cartridge with a product which is adapted to produce reproducible and closely tolerated filling conditions at high clock rates.
  • the invention is further based on the object of specifying a method for filling a tobacco product cartridge by means of said filling system, which allows the exact setting and reproducible compliance with fixed filling parameters under the boundary conditions of a large-scale filling.
  • the invention is based on the finding according to the invention that for the intended use of the tobacco product cartridges a dosage of the contents by volume or weight is insufficient. Rather, it should be considered as an additional parameter that the filled tobacco product cartridge generates a certain intake or flow resistance, on the one hand to take into account the habits of the smoker, and on the other hand to maintain the possibly existing tobacco heat to the desired extent.
  • the filling material within the smoking article cartridge must therefore undergo a certain compression state during the filling process, which in turn defines the suction or flow resistance in interaction with the respective material properties of the filling material.
  • the filling system has a filling material reservoir, a holder for the cartridge case and a vacuum connection for acting on the retaining diaphragm with negative pressure.
  • the holder is designed to guide the cartridge case for filling them to the product stock.
  • the filling system is further adapted to pressurize the interior of the cartridge case through the retaining membrane with negative pressure and thereby cause a vacuum filling of the cartridge case from the contents of the filling out.
  • the interaction of retention membrane and negative pressure first ensures that the smoking article cartridge is filled to the brim.
  • a certain compression state of the filling material within the smoking article cartridge can be brought about.
  • the combination of the brimful, volumetric dosing of the filling material with the mentioned compression state ensures the desired goal:
  • the smoking article cartridge contains the one hand, the contents in the desired amount and on the other hand creates the desired intake or flow resistance during smoking.
  • the device and method are equally suitable for handling under laboratory conditions as well as in small and even large series. Even at high clock rates, the defined filling state can be maintained within narrow tolerances.
  • this has a vacuum sensor for measuring the flow resistance of the cartridge case.
  • a measurement of the flow resistance of the cartridge case to determine their degree of filling is performed.
  • a continuous or intermittent measurement of the intake vacuum is performed during the filling process by means of the vacuum sensor, wherein the filling process is terminated when falling below a predetermined limit negative pressure.
  • the use of the vacuum sensor takes into account the fact that initially the level of the filling material within the cartridge case increases, and that subsequently sets an increasing compaction of the contents within the smoking product cartridge. With increasing fill level and increasing compaction, the flow resistance and thus the applied vacuum level increase. In other words, the suction-side pressure decreases with increasing compaction, which is used as a control or controlled variable for the compaction level to be maintained.
  • the selected limit negative pressure is the measure of the suction resistance which occurs later during use.
  • a measurement of the flow resistance of the cartridge case to determine its filling quality can be carried out following the filling process by means of the vacuum sensor.
  • the negative pressure measurement carried out here provides direct information as to whether the relevant smoking article cartridge will later have the desired throughflow or suction resistance during operation. In case of deviations, a sorting out can take place.
  • the filling system may additionally or alternatively also have a flow sensor for measuring the amount of air drawn from the cartridge case.
  • a measurement of the sucked from the cartridge case air quantity to determine their degree of filling made is made.
  • the filling process is terminated when falling below a predetermined amount of air. In addition to the setting of the flow resistance discussed above, this can also be used to ensure that a specific filling quantity is achieved within the smoking article cartridge.
  • the cartridge case is brought with its open end face to the surface of the filling material in the filling material reservoir and then the filling material is sucked from the filling material into the interior of the cartridge case.
  • the contents of the filling material do not experience any or at least no appreciable pressure through the cartridge case, so that no unwanted compaction of the contents of the contents occurs.
  • the cartridge case is at least partially and in particular completely immersed in the contents of the filling for their filling with their open end face ahead. It is here at least partially applied the principle of the riser, whereby the suction process is supported. This can favor a proper filling of the cartridge case with the contents.
  • the filling system advantageously comprises a first sealing device for sealing the retention membrane on a first end face of the cartridge case.
  • the filling system also comprises a second sealing device for sealing a cover film onto a second end face of the cartridge shell opposite the retaining membrane.
  • the retention membrane is sealed onto the first end face of the cartridge case immediately before the filling process.
  • the filling described above Once this is completed, the cover sheet is sealed to the second, the retaining membrane opposite end of the cartridge case.
  • the first sealing process, the filling and the subsequent second sealing process can therefore be carried out directly in succession with the same device without adversely affecting the cycle rate. Unprocessed, empty cartridge cases can be fed into the filling system in any position, without having to pay attention to the correct alignment of a previously applied retention membrane.
  • Fig. 1 shows in a schematic longitudinal sectional view of a finished, ready-to-use smoking product cartridge 1.
  • the tobacco product cartridge 1 comprises a cartridge case 2, the interior of which is completely filled with a filling material 7.
  • the smoking article 1 extends along a longitudinal axis and is formed here cylindrical. But there are also deviant, non-circular cross-sectional shapes into consideration.
  • the cartridge case 2 In the direction of its longitudinal axis, the cartridge case 2 has a first end face 5 and a longitudinally opposite second end face 6. On the circumferential at the first end 5 edge of the cartridge case 2, an air-permeable retaining membrane 3 is sealed.
  • the retaining membrane 3 is designed such that, although it leaves air, smoke and / or steam, not the fibrous, granular or powdery filling material 7 located in the interior of the cartridge case 2.
  • a cover sheet 4 is sealed on its peripheral edge, which may be tight overall.
  • cover sheet 4 the same material with the same properties as in the retaining membrane 3.
  • limit the circumferential wall of the cartridge case 2, the retaining membrane 3 and the cover sheet 4 the interior of the smoking article 1, which is volumetrically completely filled with a filling material 7. But it can also be a partial filling appropriate.
  • contents 7 are tobacco, a tobacco preparation, a carrier material with flavorings and / or the like into consideration. Alternatively or in combination therewith, activated carbon or another suitable filter material can also be introduced.
  • the thus prepared smoking article cartridge 1 can be inserted into a cigarette, a whistle or the like. In the case of an impermeable cover sheet 4 this is pierced before use. The emanating from the tobacco smoke smoke is sucked through the tobacco product cartridge 1 by the user. In the case of filled additives (flavoring agents, filter materials and / or the like.) While the smoke is treated by the contents 7 in the desired manner, ie aromatized and / or filtered.
  • the smoking article cartridge 1 is used in an orientation in which the retention membrane 3 faces the user.
  • a smoking article cartridge 1 can also be used in replacement devices which simulate smoking, in particular to reduce harmful effects, without causing tobacco combustion to take place.
  • tobacco products used here also explicitly includes such goods or products that serve a simulation of smoking or a replacement thereof, for example, by electrically generated vapor formation.
  • Fig. 3 shows the arrangement after Fig. 2 wherein the first subsystem described above now interacts with a second subsystem of the filling system.
  • the second subsystem comprises a likewise tubular holder 9, in which now the cartridge case 2 is inserted with its first end face 5.
  • the holder 9 is used as a punching device, by means of which the sealed-retaining membrane 3 is punched konturbillion to the cartridge case 2 from the sheet material described above. But it may also be appropriate to use a separate punching device instead of the holder 9.
  • Fig. 4 shows the arrangement after Fig. 3 in the subsequent process step, in which case the holder 9 is shown completed by additional details.
  • a stop 21 In the interior of the holder 9 is a stop 21.
  • the plunger 15 is moved according to an arrow 17 such that the cartridge case 2 with its first end face 5 to rest 21 comes.
  • the holder 9 is provided with a vacuum connection 10, which extends through the stop 21 through to the receiving space for the cartridge case 2.
  • a vacuum connection 10 By means of the vacuum connection 10, the negative pressure originating from a vacuum source, not shown, can be passed through the retaining membrane 3 into the interior of the cartridge case 2.
  • a vacuum port 10 In the region of the vacuum port 10 is still a schematically indicated vacuum sensor 11 and also schematically to interpreted flow sensor 20, whose function will be discussed in more detail below.
  • Fig. 5 shows the arrangement after Fig. 4 after the cartridge case 2 according to Fig. 4 transferred from the seal holder 14 in the holder 9 and the seal holder 14 has been removed.
  • the initially empty cartridge case 2 is brought with its open, the retaining membrane 3 opposite end 6 by means of the holder 9 in contact with a Gregutvorrat 8.
  • an open-topped container is provided, in which the selected filling material 7 as a loose bulk material to form the contents vorrats 8 is located.
  • a "contact" in the above sense does not necessarily take place an actual contact of the second end face 6 with the Gregutvorrat 8. It may also be sufficient for such a close approximation that the filling material 7 can be sucked out of the filling material supply 8 into the cartridge case 2.
  • the cartridge case 2 starting from the position to Fig. 5 for their filling with their open end 6 ahead at least partially and in particular - as in Fig. 6 shown - is completely immersed in the Gregutvorrat 8.
  • a suction is introduced through the negative pressure port 10 through the retaining membrane 3 into the interior of the cartridge case 2.
  • This intake vacuum causes a suction of the filling material 7 from the product stock 8.
  • a partial filling can take place.
  • the cartridge case 2 is completely, that is completely filled with the filling material 7.
  • the retaining membrane 3 holds back the contents 7, so that this can not get into the vacuum port 10.
  • the acting negative pressure initially causes a loose filling of the cartridge case 2, which by the immersion after Fig. 6 can be supported.
  • the negative pressure continues to apply, this is followed by an increasing compaction of the filling material 7 within the cartridge case 2.
  • the latter has an effect on the level of the negative pressure in the vacuum connection 10.
  • the negative pressure in the negative pressure closure 10 is limited to the level determined by the throughflow resistance the retaining membrane 3 is specified.
  • the degree of filling within the cartridge shell increases, so does the flow resistance that arises during the suction, as a result of which the suction pressure in the region of the vacuum connection 10 drops. In other words, increases the pressure difference between the negative pressure in the region of the vacuum port 10 and the input side of the cartridge case 2 acting ambient pressure.
  • the decreasing value of intake negative pressure will be made to the decreasing value of intake negative pressure.
  • Fig. 7 After completion of the filling process, the cartridge case 2 is lifted by means of the holder 9 from the contents 8, as in Fig. 7 is shown. It may be expedient to maintain a certain minimum negative pressure at the vacuum connection 10 in order to prevent the filling material 7 from falling out of the still open cartridge case 2.
  • the vacuum still applied following the filling process described above can be used to measure the flow resistance of the cartridge case 2 by means of the vacuum sensor 11 to determine its filling quality.
  • excess contents 7 on the second end face 6 are stripped away from the cartridge case 2 by means of a scraper 19. According to the schematic representation of Fig. 7 done this stripping a relative movement of the holder 9 relative to an edge 19 of the product container corresponding to an arrow 18th
