Claims (12)

  1. Verfahren zur Herstellung von Verbundstangen für Rauchartikel, umfassend die folgenden Schritte:
    - Bereitstellen einer Mehrzahl von Stangensegmenten (A, B) und
    - Hüllen einer Bahn (W) von Hüllmaterial um die Segmente und Bewirken, dass dieses mit der Hilfe von Haftmaterial (G, G'), das zwischen der Bahn (W) und den Segmenten (A, B) angeordnet ist, an selbigen haftet,
    dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass vor dem Hüllen der Bahn (W) um die Segmente (A, B) Haftmaterial (G') direkt auf die Oberfläche zumindest einiger der Segmente (A, B) aufgebracht wird.
  2. Verfahren nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass zumindest einige der Segmente (B) Segmente sind, die nicht innerhalb einer jeweiligen Hülle eingehüllt sind, und dass das Haftmaterial (G') direkt auf die nicht eingehüllten Segmente (B) aufgebracht wird, um zumindest einen Teil der Oberflächenunregelmäßigkeiten der Segmente zu bedecken.
  3. Verfahren nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das direkt auf die Segmente (A, B) aufgebrachte Haftmaterial so aufgebracht wird, dass es einen oder mehrere Längsstreifen auf der Oberfläche der Segmente definiert.
  4. Verfahren nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass vor dem Wickeln der Bahn (W) um die Segmente (A, B) auch auf einer Innenseite der Bahn (W), die mit den Segmenten (A, B) in Kontakt kommen soll, Haftmaterial (G) aufgebracht wird.
  5. Verfahren nach Anspruch 4, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Haftmaterial (G, G') auf die Oberfläche der Segmente (A, B) und auf die Innenseite der Bahn (W) in solchen Positionen aufgebracht wird, dass durch Kontakt des auf die Segmente (A, B) aufgebrachten Haftmaterials (G') mit dem auf die Bahn (W) aufgebrachten Haftmaterial (G) ein Haften der Bahn (W) an den Segmenten (A, B) erzielt wird.
  6. Verfahren nach einem der vorangehenden Ansprüche, wobei die Segmente (A, B) nacheinander vorgeschoben und auf der Hüllbahn (W) abgelegt werden, während die Letztere ebenfalls in einer selben Längsrichtung (X) zu einer Wickelstation vorgeschoben wird, wobei die Bahn (W) so geführt wird, dass sie seitlich um die Segmente (A, B) gehüllt wird, während sie sich nach vorn bewegt, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das Haftmaterial (G') mit Hilfe einer oder mehrerer Aufbringvorrichtungen (6), die an einer festen Position vor der Hüllstation angeordnet sind, direkt auf zumindest einige der Segmente (B) aufgebracht wird, sodass das Dispensieren von Haftmittel durch jede Aufbringvorrichtung während der Bewegung der Segmente (A, B) einen Längsstreifen von Haftmittel über den Segmenten (A, B) hervorruft.
  7. Verfahren nach einem der vorangehenden Ansprüche, wobei dem Haftmaterial, bevor es auf die Filtersegmente (A, B) aufgebracht wird, zuvor Farbstoffe und/oder Aromen hinzugefügt werden.
  8. Einrichtung zum Implementieren eines Verfahrens nach Anspruch 1, wobei die Stangensegmente (A, B) der Mehrzahl von Stangensegmenten (A, B) nacheinander vorgeschoben und auf der Hüllbahn (W), die in einer Längsrichtung (X) zu einer Hüllstation vorgeschoben wird, abgelegt werden, wobei die Bahn (W) so geführt wird, dass sie seitlich um die Segmente (A, B) gehüllt wird, während sie sich vorwärts bewegt, und wobei zumindest eine Aufbringvorrichtung von Haftmaterial (G, G') zum Anhaften der Bahn (W) um die Segmente (A, B) bereitgestellt ist,
    wobei die Einrichtung dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, dass die Aufbringvorrichtung (6) dazu angepasst ist, Haftmaterial direkt auf die Oberfläche von zumindest einigen der Segmente (A, B) aufzubringen, bevor diese Bahn (W) um die Segmente gehüllt wird.
  9. Einrichtung nach Anspruch 8, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass sich die Haftmittelaufbringvorrichtung vor der Bahnhüllstation (WS) befindet, sodass die Bereitstellung von Haftmittel von der Aufbringvorrichtung (6) während der Bewegung der Segmente (A, B) einen Längsstreifen von Haftmittel auf den Segmenten (A, B) hervorruft.
  10. Einrichtung nach Anspruch 9, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass mehrere Aufbringvorrichtungen (6) bereitgestellt sind, die dazu angepasst sind, Haftmaterial direkt auf die Segmente (A, B) aufzubringen, und sich an winkelig voneinander beabstandeten Positionen befinden.
  11. Einrichtung nach Anspruch 8, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass sie ferner eine Aufbringvorrichtung (4) von Haftmaterial umfasst, die positioniert ist, um auch auf die Bahn (W) Haftmaterial aufzubringen, bevor die Bahn (W) darauf Segmente aufnimmt.
  12. Einrichtung nach Anspruch 8, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass an der Hüllstation eine weitere Haftmittelaufbringvorrichtung (5) angeordnet ist, um überlappende Kanten der Bahn (W) anzuhaften, wenn diese um die Segmente (A, B) gehüllt wird.
