Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for turning rod-shaped products in the tobacco processing industry about a transverse axis oriented perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the products, having the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • the products are transported in troughs which can be acted upon by negative pressure and which are arranged on the outer surfaces of rotatably driven drums.
  • a complex vacuum air system with a central supply line and various control parts is provided in the drums, through which the troughs can be charged either with a vacuum to hold the products or with a slight overpressure to transfer or discharge the products or for cleaning, depending on the angle of rotation of the drum are.
  • the products are manufactured with double the usable length and then cut into two single-length products using a cutting device. If the products have a filter, the products of twice the usable length are made with a double-length filter arranged in the middle between two tobacco rods and then cut through the middle of the double-length filter, so that two single products of single length are formed with adjacent filters.
  • the products on one side have to be rotated or turned by 180 degrees about a transverse axis running perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. Furthermore, the products must be transported transversely in a strip before packaging, the width of which corresponds to the length of the products, for which purpose the row of non-rotated products must be stretched so that a free trough is provided between the products, into which a turned product of the other row is picked up.
  • cone turners In turn the products, so-called cone turners are used, in which the lanes or rows of opposite products are first spread out on a spreader drum and then transferred to the conical cone turning drums, on which the products then describe a conical path to be able to be passed back to a drum in the same direction as the mouthpiece or the filter.
  • the disadvantage of such a cone turner is that the troughs in the cone turner have to be shortened for a safe production process in relation to the rod length of the products, so that a certain angle of rotation of the cone turning drum for a process-reliable takeover and transfer of the products at the takeover or transfer point can be used.
  • the takeover is deliberately designed "unclean" to a certain extent, as a result of which adverse lateral forces can act on the products. These lateral forces can then lead to increased losses of tobacco fibers due to head failure, which should be reduced to the lowest possible level according to the customer's specifications, since the tobacco fibers that fall out together lead to an unacceptable loss of tobacco at the high production capacity and contaminate the machine .
  • a push drum must also be provided, by means of which the products are pushed together after being turned to form the strip.
  • the assembly for turning the products with the cone turners and the push drum which is to be provided if necessary, also requires a comparatively large installation space.
  • a device for transferring rod-shaped cigarettes which has a turning drum on which troughs are provided which can be fluidically connected to a central compressed air and / or vacuum supply depending on the angle of rotation of the turning drum.
  • Another type of turning drum which has at least one turning section on its radial outer side, which in turn executes a rotary movement around a radial axis perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the turning drum during the orbital movement of the turning drum.
  • On the turning section there are two parallel rows of troughs, each with troughs aligned parallel to one another, the troughs of the two rows of troughs being arranged such that the troughs of one row of troughs are offset by half a pitch to the troughs of the other row of troughs.
  • the products with the filters in one orientation are then taken over in a first step in a transfer point from a drum in the troughs of one row of troughs of the turning section of the turning drum in a first level, while the products with the respective other orientation of the filters are taken over by troughs in another take-over drum be adopted in a second level.
  • the levels are defined by those perpendicular to the axes of rotation of the turning drum and the transfer drum Sections stretched through the middle of the products.
  • the transfer of the products by the other transfer drum is designed through the selection of the speed and the division so that a product is only picked up in every second trough of the transfer drum.
  • the turning section of the turning drum is then rotated 180 degrees around the radial axis after the products with the products held in the troughs have been taken over, until the products held in the troughs in the second level with the products held in the other take-over drum rectified filters come to rest.
  • the products held in the troughs are then placed at a transfer point in the free troughs between the products held on the further transfer drum to form a path of transversely axially conveyed products with filters in the same direction, the products being equal to the strip with a width corresponding to the length of the products be lined up.
  • Such a turning drum has the advantage that the products are only twisted or turned around the transverse axis on the turning sections and taken over and transferred in a pure transverse axial movement in the transfer and takeover points of the turning drum, so that the takeover and handover of the products is considerable more accurate and "cleaner" can be realized.
  • the takeover and transfer of the products can be realized with considerably lower transverse forces acting on the products, whereby the resulting loss of tobacco fibers and the resulting contamination of the machine can be considerably reduced.
  • the troughs on the turning sections can be made with a length which corresponds approximately to the rod length of the products, so that the products are much better fixed during the takeover and transfer.
  • the turning drum requires considerably less installation space than the previously required cone turning devices, including the push drum, which is to be provided if necessary.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a device for turning rod-shaped products of the tobacco-processing industry about a transverse axis oriented perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the products, with a turning drum and at least one on the turning drum provide rotatable turning part with a simple and reliable compressed air or vacuum system for applying compressed air and vacuum to the first compressed air lines leading into the troughs.
  • the first control part be formed by a control ring arranged concentrically to the first axis of rotation and / or the second control part by a control ring arranged concentrically to the second axis of rotation.
  • the advantage of this solution can be seen in the fact that the rotary movement of the turning drum or the turning parts can be used particularly simply to control the compressed air and / or vacuum supply of the first and second compressed air lines.
  • the control contour of the control parts can be formed by one or more control cam (s) aligned concentrically to the respective axis of rotation of the turning drum or the axis of rotation of the turning part.
  • a plurality of second compressed air lines are provided in the turning drum, which are subdivided into a first grouping of second compressed air lines and a second grouping of second compressed air lines, whereby the products are produced by applying a vacuum to the first compressed air lines via the first grouping of the second compressed air lines can be taken over by an external transfer drum and can be transferred to an external takeover drum by applying compressed air to the first compressed air lines via the second grouping of the second compressed air lines.
  • the compressed air supply can be simplified to the extent that the compressed air and vacuum supply of the first compressed air lines in the troughs are used to take over the products and transfer the products can be separated from each other.
  • the structure of the second compressed air lines and the control of the compressed air supply of the first compressed air lines can be simplified in particular by the first compressed air line of the trough being controlled by the second control part depending on the angle of rotation of the turning part to the turning drum either with the second compressed air lines of the first grouping or is fluidically connected to the second compressed air lines of the second grouping.
  • the second control part accordingly has a control contour through which the flow connection between the first compressed air line in the trough and the two different groupings of the second compressed air lines is deliberately established or separated.
  • Two first control parts can preferably be provided, through which the second compressed air lines of the first grouping and the second grouping are fluidically connected to the central compressed air and / or vacuum supply in a controlled manner depending on the angle of rotation of the turning part to the turning drum.
  • the two groupings of the second compressed air lines can be acted upon with compressed air and / or vacuum separately from one another.
  • the two first control parts in this case each have an identical control contour and are arranged such that the control contours are arranged rotated by 180 degrees with respect to one another in relation to the first axis of rotation.
  • the first of the first control parts can control the compressed air and / or vacuum supply during the rotation of the turning drum by the first 180 degrees, while the second of the first control parts controls the compressed air supply or vacuum supply during the subsequent rotation angle of 180 degrees.
  • the first control parts can of course also have additional openings for individual adjustment of the compressed air supply or the vacuum supply of the first compressed air lines in the special angle of rotation sections of the turning drum.
  • a particularly simple structural design can be achieved by arranging one of the two first control parts on the front side of the turning drum in relation to the first axis of rotation and the second of the two first control parts on the rear side of the turning drum in relation to the first axis of rotation .
  • This allows the two groupings of the second compressed air lines are acted upon by compressed air or vacuum from different sides of the turning drum, whereby the structure and the production of the second compressed air lines in the turning drum can be further simplified.
  • the front and rear sides of the turning drum can be flattened and preferably have a surface perpendicular to the first axis of rotation, so that the two control parts can be arranged thereon in the form of a flat disk or a flat ring.
  • the control parts can be designed stationary opposite the turning drum, wherein the control parts can preferably be arranged with a very small and constant gap width opposite the turning drum. Due to this small gap, a flow short circuit can in turn be prevented and the power loss of the compressed air and vacuum system can be reduced.
  • the compressed air or the vacuum can be fed to the control parts both from the axial end face and from the radial outside.
  • the compressed air supply for receiving and dispensing can first be separated in a simplified manner.
  • the balance of forces acting on the turning drum through the application of compressed air and vacuum can be favored by ideally equalizing each other, with the compressed air or the vacuum applied to the two control parts being preferably identical.
  • the turning drum in this case has at least two compressed air lines that are separated from one another in sections and that fluidically connect the two first control parts to the central compressed air and / or vacuum supply.
  • the advantage of this solution can be seen in the fact that only one connection has to be provided on the turning drum for connection to the central compressed air or vacuum supply system, and that the subdivision of the compressed air system by the two control parts and the two groupings of the second compressed air lines for separate control of the Vacuum in the first compressed air line for transferring and taking over the products only takes place in the turning drum.
  • control parts provided on the two different sides can be acted upon with compressed air from a common side of the turning drum, the control part on the side of the turning drum facing away from the feed side in this case being connected to the central compressed air line by means of a compressed air line extending through the turning drum. and vacuum supply system is connected.
  • the compressed air supply can be designed in such a way that the mounting and the drive of the turning drum can be carried out separately from the compressed air and vacuum supply system, so that the vacuum and the compressed air do not act on the mounting and the drive. This is particular therefore an advantage, since the lubricant provided in the storage is not sucked off.
  • two parallel rows of troughs are provided on the turning part, and that the second control part has at least two control contours which are shaped and arranged in such a way that they are designed mirror-symmetrically to a plane perpendicular to the first axis of rotation .
  • the two parallel rows of troughs are used to ensure that the products can be taken over from the troughs of one row of troughs in a first orientation in a continuous transport process and then transferred from the same troughs of the trough row in a second orientation after rotating, while the troughs are simultaneously in the second parallel row of troughs arranged in the first orientation can be picked up straight products.
  • the control contour of the second control part is preferably designed to be mirror-symmetrical to this plane, with slight additional openings or adjustments to the control contour to take into account the special conditions Handover and takeover of the products can of course be provided. If the control contour is even designed to be identical and mirror-symmetrical, the second control parts can also be attached in two different angular positions.
  • the troughs of one row of troughs are preferably offset from the troughs of the other row of troughs, so that the products are not only rotated or turned, but can also be turned into an offset circumferential position so that they are offset in the turned orientation free troughs can be inserted between two occupied troughs of a further transfer drum.
  • the offset can preferably be half a division, so that when the turning parts are rotated by 180 degrees, the products are offset by a whole division with respect to the takeover position.
  • At least two groupings of first compressed air lines are provided in the turning part, the first compressed air lines of one grouping being assigned to the troughs of one row of troughs and the first compressed air lines of the other grouping being assigned to the troughs of the other row of troughs.
  • the products held in the troughs of the respective row of troughs have a uniform alignment of the filters, in that the troughs of a trough row are filled with products with uniformly aligned filters in a transfer position of the turning part.
  • the turning part is in the Takeover position for a certain angle of rotation of the turning drum relative to this is still, while the troughs of the trough rows are aligned with their longitudinal axes parallel to the first axis of rotation of the turning drum.
  • the compressed air or the vacuum in the first compressed air lines is controlled in such a way that the first compressed air lines of the troughs of the trough row arranged in the takeover position can be successively acted upon with compressed air or vacuum, and the compressed air or the vacuum in the first compressed air lines of the troughs of the row of troughs arranged in the transfer position can be switched off successively for taking over the products.
  • the troughs of the row of troughs in the takeover position are successively, i.e. during the rotary movement of the turning drum successively applied in the transfer point with compressed air or vacuum, so that the troughs, in which no products are yet held, are not yet applied with compressed air or vacuum.
  • the first compressed air lines are then permanently subjected to compressed air or vacuum during the further rotary movement of the turning part. As soon as the turning part has completed the turning movement with respect to the turning drum and the products have been turned 180 degrees, the troughs of the trough row are in the transfer position.
  • the compressed air or the vacuum is then successively switched off in the first compressed air lines at the transfer point, so that the troughs in which no more products are held are no longer subjected to compressed air or vacuum.
  • the transfer point and the transfer point are identical in the circumferential direction, the compressed air or the vacuum is switched on practically at the same time in the first compressed air lines for transferring the products and switched off in the first compressed air lines for transferring the products. Since the turning part does not rotate for a certain angle of rotation during the connection and disconnection of the vacuum, the connection and disconnection in this case is controlled by the application of the second compressed air lines by the first control parts on the turning drum, while the second control part also controls the second compressed air lines connects the respective first compressed air lines.
  • the second control part can preferably have at least two control contours, one of the control contours for supplying compressed air and vacuum to the first compressed air lines for the acceptance of the products and the other control contour for the delivery of the products.
  • the advantage of the proposed solution can be seen in the fact that the second control part controls both the acceptance and the delivery of the products into and out of the troughs through the two control contours.
  • At least two troughs that can be acted upon by compressed air and / or vacuum through two separate first compressed air lines and / or at least two second compressed air lines are provided in the turning drum, and the first compressed air lines and / or the second compressed air lines each have an access opening have which are arranged at an identical distance in the radial direction to the second axis of rotation of the turning part and / or to the first axis of rotation of the turning drum.
  • the access openings of the first and / or the second compressed air lines are thus arranged on an imaginary ring concentric to the second axis of rotation of the turning part and / or to the first axis of rotation of the turning drum, and can therefore be very easily operated with compressed air and / or vacuum via the likewise concentric control rings are applied, wherein the concentric control rings can preferably have control cams aligned concentrically to the axes of rotation.

  • the forwarding of the compressed air or the vacuum from the second compressed air lines 35 via the second control parts 10 into the first compressed air lines 17 and 18 of the troughs 6 and 7 is passed on.
  • first compressed air lines 17 and 18 of the troughs 6 and 7 are only acted upon with compressed air and / or vacuum when the second compressed air lines 35 via the first control parts 8 or 9 with the central compressed air and vacuum supply 5 and the fluidically connected second compressed air lines 35 are simultaneously fluidically connected to the first compressed air lines 17 and 18 via one of the second control parts 10.
  • the products 30 are through the troughs 6 in the illustration of FIG Figure 4 taken over the front row of troughs and passed through the rear row of troughs with the troughs 7.
  • the troughs 6 and 7 are aligned parallel to the first axis of rotation 33 during the takeover and transfer and over a certain angle of rotation before and after, so that the troughs 6 and 7 and the products 30 held therein during this alignment be moved in an exclusively transverse axial movement.
  • the openings of the connecting sections 19.1 to 19.6 and 24.1 to 24.6 of the first compressed air lines 17 and 18 arranged on the underside of the turning part 3 are aligned with the opposing individual openings 22 of the second control part 10, so that the first compressed air lines 17 of the troughs 6 of the front row of troughs with the first front grouping 36 of the second compressed air lines 35 and the first compressed air lines 18 of the rear row of troughs are fluidically connected to the second rear grouping 37 of the second compressed air lines 35.
  • the turning drum 2 rotates with the openings of the second compressed air lines 35 relative to the fixed first control part 9.
  • the first compressed air line 17 which is fluidically connected to this, is subjected to a vacuum.
  • this is the opening of the connecting section 19.3, so that the depression 6.3 is subjected to a vacuum and a product 30 is sucked in as a result.
  • the openings of the connecting sections 19.4, 19.5 and 19.6 are still covered by the first control part 9 so that the troughs 6.4, 6.5 and 6.6 are not yet subjected to a vacuum, whereby the power loss of the vacuum system can be reduced.
  • the products are thus taken over by the troughs 6 of the front row of troughs during the rotary movement of the turning drum 2 and transferred from the troughs 7 of the rear row of troughs. Since the turning parts 3 are rotated 180 degrees during the orbital movement of the turning drum 2, the troughs 6 of the front row of troughs form the troughs 7 of the rear trough row and vice versa after one revolution of the turning drum 2, with the products 30 in the troughs 6 of the front row of troughs with the filter facing backwards and in the troughs 7 of the rear row of troughs after rotating with the filter facing forward.
  • the turning part 3 is also rotated clockwise with respect to the turning drum 2 by means of the drive device about the second axis of rotation 34 during the further rotary movement of the turning drum 2, the turning process only after about a quarter turn the turning drum 2 begins after the products have been taken over.
  • the openings of the first grouping 36 of the second compressed air lines 35 open into the control bean 11 up to an angle of rotation of approx. 180 degrees after the transfer point, so that the first grouping 36 of the second compressed air lines 35 and thus the front group of Individual openings 22 on the second control part 10 are subjected to a vacuum.
  • the first compressed air lines 17 of the troughs 6 are subjected to an unchanged vacuum until the start of the rotary movement of the turning part 3 and the products 30 arranged therein are held.
  • the openings of the connecting sections 19.1 to 19.6 pass over the individual openings 22, it being important that the first compressed air lines 17 are permanently subjected to vacuum during this movement. This can be achieved, for example, in that the distances between the individual openings 33 are dimensioned smaller than the width of the openings in the connecting sections 19.1 to 19.6 in the circumferential direction.
  • the openings of the connecting sections 19.1 to 19.6 can also be elongated and inclined in relation to the radial direction of the turning part 3, in which case the individual openings 22 can also have a radially outward increasing width in the circumferential direction.
  • the opening of the connecting section 19.6, which is closest to the bean 23 in the takeover position, is brought to overlap with the bean 23 by turning the turning part 3 and then subjected to a vacuum by this, with the openings of the next connecting sections 19.5 to 19.1 successively brought to overlap with the bean 23 and applied in the same way by the bean 23 with vacuum.
  • the openings 19.1 to 19.6 are successively moved out of the bean 23 and then reach the overlap with the rear individual openings 22 of the second control part 10, which in turn are fluidically connected to the second compressed air lines 35 of the rear, second grouping 37.
  • the rear individual openings 22 of the second control part 10 are then subjected to a vacuum depending on the angle of rotation of the turning drum 2 when the openings of the second compressed air lines 35 of the rear second grouping 37 cover the control bean 12 of the second first control part 8 on the rear side of the turning drum 2, like in the Figure 3 can be seen.
  • the application of vacuum to the troughs 6 and 7 is interrupted in very small angular segments for a few milliseconds during the rotary movement of the turning drum, provided that the vacuum does not decrease in this period of time and is sufficient to keep the products 30 in the troughs 6 to hold.
  • the transfer of the products 30 can be promoted by the troughs 7 in the transfer position being subjected to overpressure for a very short period of time, whereby firstly the vacuum is actively balanced and secondly the dispensing of the products 30 is actively supported.
  • the advantage of the compressed air and vacuum supply according to the invention is to be seen in the fact that the troughs 6 and 7 are thereby reliably subjected to a vacuum and, if necessary, also with overpressure during the turning process from the takeover position to the transfer position, whereby the products 30 are in turn reliably transported .
  • the compressed air or vacuum supply system is divided into two branches, which are acted upon by a common central compressed air and vacuum supply 5.
  • the two branches of the compressed air and vacuum supply 5 are formed in that the vacuum and the compressed air are fed on one side to the front first control part 9 and through the central compressed air line 14 through the turning drum 2 to the rear first control part 8 in two separate lines .
  • the compressed air or the vacuum then passed on via the individually designed control beans 11 and 12 of the two first control parts 8 and 9 into one of the groupings 36 or 37 of the second compressed air lines 35, whereby the front or rear individual openings 22 of the second control parts 10 up or down be applied to a certain angle of rotation of the turning drum 2 with vacuum or compressed air.
  • the first compressed air lines 17 and 18 leading into the troughs 6 and 7 are then acted upon by the rotary movement of the turning parts 3, so that the first compressed air lines 17 and 18 are dependent on the turning angle of the turning drum 2 and the turning angle of the turning parts 3 to the double Turning drum 2 can be applied with vacuum or compressed air.
  • connection of the central compressed air and vacuum supply 5 is preferably provided on the free front of the turning drum 2, so that the bearing and the drive of the turning drum 2 are provided on the rear side of the turning drum 2 or on the side of the fastening or control flange 4 can be, whereby the structural design of the turning drum 2 can be simplified.
  • This is particularly advantageous because the preferably fat-free storage is not burdened by it. If there are solid lubricants such as viscous greases are provided, this can prevent the solid lubricant from being sucked out of the bearing points by the vacuum.
  • the first and second control parts 8, 9 and 10 were each formed by a fixed control contour, which control the pressure and vacuum application of the first compressed air lines 17, 18 and the second compressed air lines 35 by their shape.
  • the control contour can also have a shape that deviates from the control bean shown in order to implement a different type of control of the vacuum.
  • the control parts 8, 9 and 10 can also be designed as mechanically or electromechanically controllable valves.
  • the turning drum 2 is formed as an octagonal cube with six surfaces of essentially the same size, on the front and rear sides of which a first control part 8 and 9 fixed relative to it is arranged.
  • a second control part 10 which is stationary with respect to the rotating turning part 3 is provided.
  • the first compressed air lines 17 and 18 in the troughs are subjected to a vacuum during the orbital movement, beginning with the passage through the transfer point. In this position, the respective turning part 3 stands still.
  • the first compressed air lines 17 opening into the troughs 6 are, starting from the central compressed air and vacuum supply 5 via the compressed air line 13, through the control bean 11 of the front first control part 9 through the second compressed air lines 35 via the in the illustration of Figure 2 front individual openings 22 when passing through the transfer point successively applied with vacuum. Subsequently, during the further rotary movement by an angle of rotation of approx. 20 degrees, the first compressed air lines are further acted upon via the individual openings 22, for which purpose they can have an oblique shape, for example, so that the first compressed air lines 17 are always fluidically connected to at least one of the individual openings 22 during this angle of rotation are.
  • the first compressed air lines 17 continue to be subjected to a vacuum via the open control bean 23 of the second control part 10, while the second compressed air lines 35 continue to be fluidically connected to the central compressed air and vacuum supply via the bean 11.
  • the second compressed air lines 35 in the turning drum 2 are no longer subjected to vacuum via the bean 11 of the front control part 9, but instead via the one in the Figure 3 Bean 12 to be recognized of the rear control part 8, which in turn is fluidically connected to the central compressed air and vacuum supply 5 via the central compressed air line 14 and the channels 16.
  • the compressed air is then switched off in the same way as during the takeover, only in the reverse order to the transfer of the products in the compressed air lines 18.
  • the first compressed air lines 17 and 18 are the same compressed air lines; the different reference symbols only identify the first compressed air lines 17 arranged in the takeover position and the first compressed air lines 18 arranged in the transfer position.
