Hierbei kann es sich unter anderem um Multisegmentfilter, stabförmige Tabakprodukte, an die Filtersegmente oder Abstandssegmente angebracht sind, oder sogenannte Heat-not-burn Produkte handeln.A wide variety of rod-shaped products are increasingly required in the tobacco processing industry. These can include multi-segment filters, rod-shaped tobacco products to which filter segments or spacer segments are attached, or so-called heat-not-burn products.
Insbesondere bei sehr empfindlichen Segmenten, die am äußersten Ende eines stabförmigen Produkts liegen, kann die Bearbeitung bzw. Verarbeitung in vielen Förderorganen zu Beschädigungen bzw. Qualitätseinbußen führen.Particularly in the case of very sensitive segments that are at the extreme end of a rod-shaped product, processing or processing can lead to damage or loss of quality in many conveying elements.
Es ist Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, stabförmige Produkte der Tabak verarbeitenden Industrie, die aus mehreren Segmenten bestehen, von denen eines der empfindlichen Segmente außenliegend ist bzw. zum Ende des stabförmigen Produkts angeordnet ist, schonend herzustellen. Hierzu soll ein Verfahren, eine Verwendung und eine entsprechende Maschine angegeben werden.It is an object of the present invention to produce rod-shaped products of the tobacco processing industry, which consist of several segments, of which one of the sensitive segments is on the outside or is arranged at the end of the rod-shaped product. For this purpose, a method, a use and a corresponding machine are to be specified.
Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch ein Verfahren zum Herstellen von stabförmigen Produkten der Tabak verarbeitenden Industrie mit den folgenden Verfahrensschritten:
- gemäß einer ersten Variante:
- Zuführen eines ersten stabförmigen Produkts der Tabak verarbeitenden Industrie zu einer das erste Produkt queraxial fördernden Fördervorrichtung, wobei das erste Produkt wenigstens drei Segmente aufweist und wobei das erste Produkt mit einem Umhüllungsmaterial umhüllt ist,
- queraxiales Schneiden des ersten Produkts in ein erstes und ein zweites Teilprodukt, wobei das erste und das zweite Teilprodukt jeweils wenigstens zwei Segmente aufweisen,
- Anlegen eines Zwischensegments an das erste Teilprodukt, so dass in längsaxialer Richtung das Zwischensegment, das erste Teilprodukt und dann das zweite Teilprodukt hintereinander angeordnet sind, oder
- gemäß einer zweiten Variante:
- Zuführen eines Zwischensegments zu einer das Zwischensegment queraxial fördernden Fördervorrichtung,
- Fördern eines ersten stabförmigen Produkts der Tabak verarbeitenden Industrie in einer das erste Produkt queraxial fördernden Fördervorrichtung, wobei das erste Produkt wenigstens drei Segmente aufweist und wobei das erste Produkt mit einem Umhüllungsmaterial umhüllt ist,
- queraxiales Schneiden des ersten Produkts in ein erstes und ein zweites Teilprodukt, wobei das erste und das zweite Teilprodukt jeweils wenigstens zwei Segmente aufweisen,
- Anlegen der Teilprodukte an ein Ende des Zwischensegments, wobei das erste Teilprodukt an dem Zwischensegment zur Anlage gebracht wird,
- gemeinsames Wenden des Zwischensegments und des ersten Teilprodukts, um die Orientierung des Zwischensegments und des ersten Teilprodukts um eine Querachse um 180° zu ändern, und
- Umwickeln des Zwischensegments und wenigstens eines Teils der an das Zwischensegment angrenzenden Segmente des ersten und des zweiten Teilprodukts mit einem weiteren UmhĂĽllungsmaterial.
- according to a first variant:
- Supplying a first rod-shaped product of the tobacco processing industry to a conveyor device which transversely axially conveys the first product, the first product having at least three segments and the first product having a wrapping material is enveloped,
- transverse axial cutting of the first product into a first and a second partial product, the first and the second partial product each having at least two segments,
- Applying an intermediate segment to the first partial product, so that the intermediate segment, the first partial product and then the second partial product are arranged one behind the other in the longitudinal axial direction, or
- according to a second variant:
- Supplying an intermediate segment to a conveyor device which transversely axially conveys the intermediate segment,
- Conveying a first rod-shaped product of the tobacco processing industry in a conveying device which transversely axially conveys the first product, the first product having at least three segments and the first product being encased with a wrapping material,
- transverse axial cutting of the first product into a first and a second partial product, the first and the second partial product each having at least two segments,

- turning the intermediate segment and the first partial product together to change the orientation of the intermediate segment and the first partial product about a transverse axis by 180 °, and
- Wrapping the intermediate segment and at least a portion of the segments of the first and second sub-products adjacent to the intermediate segment with a further wrapping material.
Durch das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren wird erreicht, dass ein empfindliches Segment, das nach dem Wenden außen zu liegen kommt, erst sehr spät nach außen zu liegen kommt, so dass mit diesem außenliegenden Segment wenige weitere Verarbeitungs- bzw. Bearbeitungsschritte durchgeführt werden müssen. Hierdurch wird ein derartiges sensibles bzw. empfindliches Segment sehr schonend behandelt.It is achieved by the method according to the invention that a sensitive segment, which comes to lie on the outside after turning, comes to lie on the outside only very late, so that few further processing or processing steps have to be carried out with this outside segment. In this way, such a sensitive or sensitive segment is treated very gently.
Das Zwischensegment kann im Rahmen der Erfindung ein einzelnes Segment oder mehrere Segmente umfassen. Beispielsweise kann ein Zwischensegment aus zwei auĂźenliegenden gleichartigen Segmenten und ein dazwischenliegendes andersartiges Segment kombiniert sein. Um das kombinierte Zwischensegment zur VerfĂĽgung zu stellen, kann ein dritter Produktlauf vorgesehen sein, der das dazwischenliegende andersartige Segment zur VerfĂĽgung stellt.In the context of the invention, the intermediate segment can comprise a single segment or a plurality of segments. For example, an intermediate segment composed of two external segments of the same type and an intermediate segment of a different type can be combined. In order to make the combined intermediate segment available, a third product run can be provided, which makes the different segment in between available.
Das gemeinsame Wenden des Zwischensegments und des ersten Teilprodukts geschieht im Rahmen der Erfindung so, dass die vor dem Wenden einander zugewandten Stirnseiten des Zwischensegments und des ersten Teilprodukts nach dem Wenden weiterhin einander zugewandt sind.Within the scope of the invention, the intermediate segment and the first partial product are turned together such that the end faces of the intermediate segment and the first partial product that face each other before the turning continue to face each other after the turning.
Vorzugsweise wird auch das zweite Teilprodukt gewendet, so dass die Orientierung des zweiten Teilprodukts um eine Querachse um 180° geändert wird. Das Wenden des zweiten Teilprodukts geschieht im Rahmen dieser Anmeldung so, dass die Stirnseite des zweiten Teilprodukts, die vor dem Wenden außen lag, nach dem Wenden einer Stirnseite des Zwischensegments zugewandt ist.The second partial product is preferably also turned so that the orientation of the second partial product is changed by 180 ° about a transverse axis. In the context of this application, the turning of the second partial product takes place in such a way that the front face of the second partial product, which was outside before the turning, faces a front face of the intermediate segment after turning.
Das Wenden um eine Querachse um 180° ist im Rahmen der Erfindung ein Wenden um eine Querachse, also einer zu einer Längsachse des ersten oder zweiten Teilprodukts oder des Zwischensegments orthogonalen Achse. Im Rahmen der Erfindung kann ein Wenden des zweiten Teilprodukts und ein gleichzeitiges Wenden des ersten Teilprodukts mit dem Zwischensegment auch ein Staffeln, aneinander Vorbeischieben und Zurückstaffeln des zweiten Teilprodukts mit dem ersten Teilprodukt in Kombination mit dem Zwischensegment sein.In the context of the invention, turning around a transverse axis by 180 ° is turning around a transverse axis, that is to say an axis orthogonal to a longitudinal axis of the first or second partial product or of the intermediate segment. Within the scope of the invention, a turning of the second partial product and a simultaneous turning of the first partial product with the Intermediate segment can also be a staggering, pushing past and staggering backwards of the second partial product with the first partial product in combination with the intermediate segment.
Vorzugsweise liegen das erste und zweite Teilprodukt vor und nach dem Wenden gemeinsam in einer Mulde eines Förderorgans, sind also in längsaxialer Richtung des stabförmigen Produkts hintereinander angeordnet. Vorzugsweise geschieht das Wenden auf einer Wendetrommel.The first and second partial products are preferably located together in a trough of a conveying member before and after turning, that is to say are arranged one behind the other in the longitudinal axial direction of the rod-shaped product. The turning is preferably carried out on a turning drum.
Wenn vorzugsweise vor dem Anlegen des Zwischensegments das erste und das zweite Teilprodukt, insbesondere wenigstens eine Länge des Zwischensegments, längsaxial zueinander beabstandet werden, kann sehr schonend das Zwischensegment zwischen das erste und das zweite Teilprodukt eingebracht werden, ohne einen großen Schiebehub zu benötigen, um das erste Teilprodukt, das zweite Teilprodukt und das Zwischensegment zusammenzuschieben.If the first and the second partial product, in particular at least a length of the intermediate segment, are preferably spaced longitudinally apart from one another before the intermediate segment is created, the intermediate segment can be introduced very gently between the first and the second partial product without requiring a large sliding stroke in order to do this to push the first partial product, the second partial product and the intermediate segment together.
Alternativ zu einer Wendetrommel können auch mehrere Trommeln zum Wenden eingesetzt werden, wobei im Rahmen der Erfindung mehrere Trommeln zum Wenden auch als Wendetrommel zu verstehen sind. So kann beispielsweise eine Kombination einer Fördertrommel, auf der zunächst die beiden Teilprodukte und das Zwischensegment in einer Mulde angeordnet sind, wobei beispielsweise das erste Teilprodukt und das Zwischensegment von einer kegelförmigen Trommel abgenommen werden und von einer weiteren kegelförmigen Trommel wieder auf die Fördertrommel abgegeben werden, verwendet werden. Vorrichtungen zum Wenden von stabförmigen Produkten sind beispielsweise in
Vorzugsweise sind das erste Teilprodukt, das Zwischensegment und das zweite Teilprodukt nach dem Wenden koaxial zueinander angeordnet.The first partial product, the intermediate segment and the second partial product are preferably arranged coaxially to one another after turning.
Vorzugsweise wird das wenigstens drei Segmente aufweisende erste stabförmige Produkt in einem ersten Produktlauf aus einem wenigsten fünf Segmente aufweisenden stabförmigen Produkt geschnitten und anschließend in dem ersten Produktlauf mit anderen wenigstens drei Segmente aufweisenden ersten stabförmigen Produkten gestaffelt und queraxial fluchtend angeordnet.The first rod-shaped product having at least three segments is preferably made up of at least one in a first product run cut five segments of rod-shaped product and then in the first product run with other at least three segments of first rod-shaped products staggered and aligned transversely axially.
Unter einem ersten Produktlauf wird insbesondere eine Anordnung von Förder- und Bearbeitungstrommeln verstanden, mittels der beispielsweise stabförmige Produkte aus mehreren Segmenten, die mit einem Umhüllungsmaterial umhüllt sind, aus einem Magazin entnommen werden, geschnitten werden, dann gestaffelt und längsaxial so verschoben werden, dass diese queraxial fluchtend angeordnet sind, um dann auf eine Fördertrommel oder Zusammenstelltrommel abgegeben zu werden, auf der diese dann beispielsweise noch einmal mittig geschnitten werden, um anschließend weitere Bearbeitungsschritte vorzunehmen. Als weiterer Bearbeitungsschritt kann ein Wenden wenigstens eines der geschnittenen stabförmigen Produkte angesehen werden. Der zweite Produktlauf kann entsprechende Organe, wie Förder- und Bearbeitungstrommeln aufweisen und dient dazu ein Zwischensegment so zu bearbeiten und zu fördern, dass dieses als doppeltlanges Produkt an das erste Teilprodukt angelegt wird. Der zweite Produktlauf kann das gemeinsame Wenden des ersten Teilprodukts mit dem Zwischensegment vorsehen.A first product run is understood to mean, in particular, an arrangement of conveying and processing drums by means of which, for example, rod-shaped products from a plurality of segments which are covered with a wrapping material are removed from a magazine, are cut, then staggered and moved axially so that they are shifted are aligned transversely axially in order to then be delivered to a conveyor drum or assembly drum, on which they are then cut again in the middle, for example, in order to then carry out further processing steps. A further processing step can be considered turning at least one of the cut rod-shaped products. The second product run can have corresponding organs, such as conveying and processing drums, and serves to process and promote an intermediate segment in such a way that it is applied to the first partial product as a double-length product. The second product run can provide for the joint turning of the first partial product with the intermediate segment.
