- Fig. 2 The outline of the present process is illustrated in Fig. 2 .
- "w" indicates "double-length.”
- 5w represents a double-length filter segment.
- the manufacturing method of the present invention can be performed using any appropriate apparatus but is preferably performed using, for example, an apparatus that includes a plurality of drums and that feeds each member from above as illustrated in Fig. 5 .
- One drum preferably has one function rather than a plurality of functions since defect generation can be suppressed in high-speed manufacture.
- each step will be described using such an apparatus as an example.
- one or a plurality of drums may have a feeding, receiving, transferring, or separating function.
- This step prepares a double-length tobacco segment 10w containing a double-length tobacco rod 1w' that has a double length of the tobacco rod 1 and that is separable in the central part in the longitudinal direction and two cooling segments 3 in contact with either end of the double-length tobacco rod.
- This step may be performed by preparing a double-length tobacco segment containing a double-length tobacco rod 1w, which has a double length of the tobacco rod, and two cooling segments 3 in contact with either end of the double-length tobacco rod and by cutting the double-length tobacco segment in the central part in the longitudinal direction.
- this step can be performed in the first unit 81 to the third unit 83 of Fig.
- 81f is a feeder for cooling segments 3
- 81p is a picking-up drum
- 81s is a separating drum.
- a pair of cooling segments 3 fed from the feeder 81f are passed to a holding section provided on the circumferential surface of the picking-up drum 81p. Subsequently, the pair of the cooling segments 3 are passed to the separating drum 81s and separated in a holding section while being transferred.
- 82f is a feeder for a double-length tobacco rod 1w
- 82t is a transfer drum
- 82p is a picking-up drum
- 82a is a receiving drum.
- the pair of the cooling segments 3 placed via a gap are passed in this state to the transfer drum 82t.
- a double-length tobacco rod 1w fed from the feeder 82f is passed to a holding section provided on the circumferential surface of the picking-up drum 82p and then passed to the receiving drum 82a.
- the double-length tobacco rod 1w is placed in the gap between the pair of the separately placed cooling segments 3 such that both ends of the double-length tobacco rod 1w come into contact with the end of either of the cooling segments 3.
- 83c is a cutter drum
- 83c' is a cutter
- 83s is a separating drum.
- a segment including the pair of the cooling segments 3 at the ends of the double-length tobacco rod 1w is passed to the cutter drum 83c and cut with the cutter 83c' in the central part in the longitudinal direction of the double-length tobacco rod 1w.
- the double-length tobacco rod 1w or a separable double-length tobacco rod 1w' may be wrapped in a wrapper.
- a wrapper is a sheet-like member, and the examples include paper and polymer sheets. Exemplary paper includes publicly known paper, such as tipping paper, and exemplary polymer sheets include biodegradable polymer sheets, such as a polylactic acid sheet.
- a smoking article decorated in the upstream portion can be provided (see Fig. 3 (2)).
- a flavor may be added to the double-length tobacco rod 1w or the separable double-length tobacco rod 1 w'.
- a smoking article containing a flavor in the upstream portion can be provided (see Fig. 3 (1)).
- a flavor is not limited, and a publicly known flavor, such as menthol, may be used.
- the amount to be added is also not limited and may be set to a publicly known amount.
- F is a portion added with a flavor
- F' is a paper containing a flavor. As just described, this step can functionalize the upstream portion of a smoking article to be manufactured.
- the double-length tobacco segment 1w is separated in the central part to prepare a pair of separate tobacco segments 10 and the tobacco segments are inverted, thereby placing the tobacco segments via a gap to position the tobacco rod 1 sections outside, align the longitudinal axes of the tobacco segments, and allow the cooling segments 3 to face each other.
- This step can be performed in the fourth unit 84 of Fig. 5 where 84i and 84i' are inverting drums. With reference to Fig. 6 , the mechanism of inversion will be described.
- a guide G on the inverting drum 84i is a holding section for the tobacco segment 10 and is provided in a rotatable manner around one corner on the drum.
- the tobacco segment 10 held in the guide G illustrated with a dotted line is moved to the solid-line position through the rotation of the guide G as the inverting drum 84i rotates. Subsequently, the tobacco segment 10 is passed to a guide G' illustrated with a dotted line on the inverting drum 84i'.
- the guide G' slides on the inverting drum 84i' to the solid-line position where the distance between the pair of the tobacco segments 10 is a desirable value. The pair of the tobacco segments 10 are thus inverted.
- a double-length filter segment 5w which has a double length of the filter segment 5 is prepared and placed in the gap such that both ends of the double-length filter segment come into contact with the end on the cooling segment 3 side of either of the tobacco segments 10, thereby preparing a composite segment.

- the double-length filter segment 5w is placed in the gap between the pair of the separately placed tobacco segments 10 such that both ends of the double-length filter segment 5w come into contact with the end of either of the tobacco segments 10, thereby forming a composite segment 90.
- the composite segment is integrated by wrapping in one tipping paper 7 to obtain a double-length smoking article 100w.
- the tipping paper any paper common in the field concerned can be used.
- the tipping paper may be coated with a publicly known adhesive.
- the composite segment in the separable state is integrated into the inseparable state.
- the tipping paper 7 need not cover the entire range of the tobacco rods 1.
- the region covered with the tipping paper 7 is preferably a region extending from the bonding face between the tobacco rod 1 and the cooling segment 3 to the position of 0.2X to 0.4X in the longitudinal direction of the tobacco rod 1.
- thermal conductivity can be enhanced in the case of heating the tobacco rod 1 from the outside.
- This step can be performed in the sixth unit 86 of Fig. 5 .
- 86f is a feeder for a tipping paper 7
- 86t is a transfer drum
- 86r is a rolling drum
- 86h is a rolling hand.
- a rolling drum is a drum having a holding section that is for holding a member on the circumferential surface and that enables a segment or another member to rotate on its central axis in the longitudinal direction.
- a rolling hand is a means that is disposed facing the circumferential surface of the rolling drum and that is for forming a gap of a constant distance from the circumferential surface.
- the composite segment 90 is passed to the transfer drum 86t and then passed to the rolling drum 86r.
- the precursor 92 includes the tipping paper 7 attached, like a flag, to the composite segment 90. In other words, part of the tipping paper 7 is attached to the circumferential surface of the composite segment 90 while leaving the remainder free.
- the precursor 92 is fixed to the holding section on the circumferential surface of the rolling drum 86r through suction or the like and transferred to the gap formed between the rolling drum 86r and the rolling hand 86h. While passing through this gap, the entire circumferential surface of the precursor 92 is wrapped in the tipping paper 7 to form a double-length smoking article 100w (see Fig. 7 ).
- the tobacco rod 1 preferably has a diameter larger than the neighboring cooling segment 3 in the present invention.
- the surfaces of the rolling drum 86r and the rolling hand 86h are flat, excessive contact arises between these surfaces and the tobacco rod 1 ( Fig. 8 (1)). This results in a problem of falling fillings from the leading end under the impact on the tobacco rod 1.
- the difference in circumference causes twisting, thereby developing defects, such as creases, in a product.
- a depression may be provided on the rolling drum 86r or both the rolling drum and the rolling hand.
- the depth of the depression (T in Figs. 8 (2) and (3) ) is appropriately adjusted and is preferably 0.05 to 0.15 mm.
- Such a depression need not be provided on the entire surface that faces the tobacco rod 1.
- a depression may be provided on part of the surface that faces the tobacco rod 1.
- a depression is preferably absent near the boundary between these two members.
- the double-length smoking article 100w is cut in the central part in the longitudinal direction.
- a pair of smoking articles 100 can be manufactured.
- This step may further include aligning two smoking articles 100 in the same direction by inverting either of the smoking articles 100.
- This step can be performed in the seventh unit 87 of Fig. 5 .
- 87c is a cutter drum
- 87c' is a cutter
- 87a is a receiving drum.
- the double-length smoking article 100w is passed to the cutter drum 87c and cut in the central part in the longitudinal direction to form smoking articles 100.
- the smoking articles 100 are passed to the receiving drum 87a, separated, and isolated as products.
- the present invention even when a member having a smaller diameter than a tobacco rod is placed neighboring the tobacco rod, it is possible to avoid failure, such as jams during rolling, and consequently to perform satisfactory rolling. Moreover, the present invention is also advantageous in terms of costs since one tipping paper is used. Further, conventional methods that use a plurality of tipping papers need a measure of providing steps on drums, for example, since steps are formed on smoking articles. In contrast, the manufacturing method of the present invention does not need such a measure.
- a separable double-length tobacco segment was obtained by placing each paper tube at both ends of a double-length tobacco rod that is separable in the central part in the longitudinal direction (step A).
- the separable double-length tobacco segment was separated in the central part to prepare a pair of separate tobacco segments, and the tobacco segments were inverted to be placed via a gap (step B).
- the tobacco rod sections were positioned outside and the longitudinal axes of the tobacco segments were aligned.
- a double-length filter segment was placed in the gap such that both ends of the double-length filter segment come into contact with the end on the cooling segment side of either of the tobacco segments to obtain a composite segment (step C).
- the composite segment was integrated by wrapping in one tipping paper to obtain a double-length smoking article, which has a double length of a smoking article (step D).
- the double-length smoking article was cut in the central part in the longitudinal direction to yield two smoking articles (step E).
