- the feeding module 20 shown in Fig. 1 comprises a hopper 21, a receiving drum 22 provided with circumferentially arranged flutes into which rods MA from the hopper 21 are received.
- the receiving drum 22 transfers the rods MA to a conveying drum 23, whereas at the conveying drum 23 there is arranged a cutting head 24 which is provided with one or several circular knives 24A for cutting the rods MA.
- the conveying drum 23 conveys the rods MA while cutting the rods MA into individual segments A ( Fig. 2 ).
- the hopper 21, the receiving drum 22 and the conveying drum 23 together with the cutting head 24 constitute a feeding apparatus 30 for feeding groups G of segments A.
- the feeding module 20 comprises a shifting drum 25 for varying mutual position of the segments A and an aligning drum 26 for forming at least one stream of the segments A.
- the feeding module 20 supplies the segments A in the form of at least one stream of the segments A.
- An example of a stream of the segments A formed by cutting the rods MA is shown in Fig. 1a , the drums are not shown, just the rods MA and the segments A situated successively on the receiving drum 22, the conveying drum 23, the shifting drum 25 and the aligning drum 26 are presented.
- the shifting drum 25 varies the arrangement of the segments A relative to one another, the shifting drum 25 can also be called a cascading drum.
- the segments A are positioned so that they move along a single path of movement, in the view of the lateral surface of the drum along a single line.
- Fig. 1b shows the forming of two streams of the segments A resulting from the cutting of the rods MA.
- the stream of the segments A can be transferred further to a receiving apparatus by means of a transferring drum 27.
- the feeding module 20 can be used to feed the stream of the segments A in an assembling apparatus of a machine for manufacturing multi-segment articles.
- the rods MA stored in the hopper 21 fill the flutes 28 arranged circumferentially on the receiving drum 22 as this drum is rotated.
- the rod MA is held in the flute 28 by a vacuum provided through holes in the bottom of the flute 28.
- the receiving drum 22 transfers the rods MA at the point of transfer X to the flutes 29 of the conveying drum 23 ( Fig. 3 ) where the rods MA are also held by the vacuum.
- the rod MA is cut into individual segments A, whereas the segments A produced from one rod MA form a group G ( Fig. 2 ).
- the successively fed groups G of segments A can be transferred to the next drum and shifted during the movement to form a stream of individual segments A in which the segments A move so that their axes are situated perpendicular to the direction of movement.
- the successively fed groups of segments A may be received in a direction substantially corresponding to the axis of rotation of the conveying drum 23 so as to form a stream of individual segments A in which the segments A move so that their axes are situated in line with the direction of movement.
- the feeding apparatus 30, constituting a fragment of the feeding module 20, comprises a filling sensor 31 for checking the presence of the rod MA in the flute 28 of the receiving drum 22. Furthermore, the feeding apparatus 30 comprises a quality control sensor 32 for checking the quality of the conveyed rods MA.
- the feeding apparatus 30 comprises a rod rejector 33 for rejecting defective rods MA.
- the rejector 33 comprises a pressure vessel 34 and a valve 35 on a feed channel 36 through which compressed air is supplied.
- the rejection of the rod MA takes place by momentarily supplying compressed air to the rejection channel 37.
- the rejection force acting on the rod MA is greater than the force holding the rod MA in the flute 28.
- the rejected defective rod is designated MA'.
- the receiving drum 22 is adapted to operate at a variable and adjustable rotational speed, preferably with position control, for example by coupling the receiving drum 22 to a digitally controlled servo drive which is provided with a position encoder.
- the rotational speed w1 of the receiving drum 22 is synchronised with the rotational speed w2 of the conveying drum 23, the synchronisation of the receiving drum 22 and the conveying drum 23 being maintained when all flutes 28 of the receiving drum 22 are filled.
- individual flutes 28 may be unfilled. The occurrence of an unfilled flute 28' may be due to a momentary ineffective receiving of the rod MA from the hopper 21.
- An unfilled flute 28' will also occur when a defective rod MA' is detected by the quality control sensor 92 and the rejector 93 is activated. When a low-quality rod MA' is detected by the sensor 92, the rejector 93 rejects such a defective rod.
- the flute 28' is denoted as the flute from which the defective rod MA' was rejected after activation of the rejector 93.
- the flute 28' will denote both a flute from which a defective rod was rejected and a flute that was not filled by the rod MA from the hopper 21.
- the feeding apparatus 30 is adapted to transfer the rod MA at the point of transfer X from the flute 28 of the receiving drum 22 to the flute 29 of the conveying drum 23, the receiving drum 22 rotating at a speed w1 and the conveying drum 23 rotating at a speed w2 adjusted to the speed ⁇ 1 so that the linear speeds of the receiving drum 22 and the conveying drum 23 are equal.
- the feeding apparatus 30 is adapted to momentarily accelerate the receiving drum 22 before the unfilled flute 28' of the receiving drum 22 reaches the point of transfer X.
- the receiving drum 22 is adapted to make a rotational movement with an increased speed w1' so that when an unfilled flute 28' of the receiving drum 22 is detected, the receiving drum 22 moves with an increased speed w1' so that at the point of transfer X of the rod MA to the flute 29 of the conveying drum 23, there is another filled flute 28" of the receiving drum 22 and another empty flute 29' of the conveying drum 23.
- An effect of the acceleration of the receiving drum 22 is that all flutes 29 on the conveying drum 23 are filled, i.e. the "unfilling" of flute 28' is not transferred to the conveying drum 23.
- Fig. 4 shows the successive phases of movement of the receiving drum 22 to be carried out in order to eliminate the "unfilling", the shown phases of movement include the acceleration of the receiving drum 22, the figure also shows the phases of movement of the conveying drum 23 related to the movement of the receiving drum 22.
- the rod MA is transferred to the flute 29 and the receiving drum 22 moves at the nominal rotational speed w1 adjusted to the rotational speed w2 of the conveying drum 23.
- the next flute to be filled is designated 29', the flute 28' which approaches the point of transfer X being unfilled.
- the receiving drum 22 Just after transferring the rod MA to the flute 29 of the conveying drum 23, the receiving drum 22 starts to move at the increased speed ⁇ 1', as shown in the phase b, where the flute 28' moves faster than the flute 29' to be filled with the next rod MA.
- the receiving drum 22 continues to rotate at the increased speed w1' and the conveying drum 23 rotates at the nominal speed w2.
- the filled flute 28" of the receiving drum 22 and the empty flute 29' of the conveying drum 23 are positioned opposite each other, i.e.
- the receiving drum 22 reduces its speed to the nominal rotational speed w1 and the conveying drum 23 rotates at the nominal rotational speed w2.
- the receiving drum 22 and the conveying drum 23 continue to rotate synchronously with the speeds w1 and w2, respectively, enabling the transfer of the successive rods MA.
- Fig. 5 shows a feeding apparatus 40 in the second embodiment.
- the feeding apparatus 40 comprises a hopper 41, the receiving drum 22, the conveying drum 23 and the cutting head 24.
- the feeding apparatus 40 is further provided with a feed channel 42 for feeding the rods MA, the feeding of the rods MA to the hopper 41 being assisted by two conveyors 43 and 44.
- the feeding apparatus 40 is used to cut the rods MA and to feed the groups G of segments A.
- the receiving drum 22 is provided with circumferentially arranged flutes 28 into which the rods MA are received from the hopper 41.
- the receiving drum 22 transfers the rods MA to the conveying drum 23, whereas at the conveying drum 23 there is arranged the cutting head 24 which is provided with one or several circular knives 24A for cutting the rods MA.
- the conveying drum 23 conveys the rods MA while cutting the rods MA into individual segments A ( Fig. 2 ).
- the rods MA stored in the hopper 41 fill the flutes 28 arranged circumferentially on the receiving drum 22 as this drum is rotated.
- the MA rod is held in the flute 28 by a vacuum supplied through holes in the bottom of the flute 28.
- the receiving drum 22 transfers the rods MA at the point of transfer X to the flutes 29 of the conveying drum 23 where the rods MA are also held by the vacuum.
- the rod MA is cut into individual segments A, whereas the segments A produced from one rod MA form a group G.
- the successively fed groups G of segments A can be received and shifted during the movement to form a stream of individual segments A.
- the groups G can be pulled out in a direction substantially parallel to the axis of rotation k of the conveying drum 23, i.e. in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the drawing.
- a pulling out unit for pulling out the group G is described hereinafter.
- the feeding apparatus 40 comprises the filling sensor 31 for checking the presence of the rod MA in the flute 28 of the receiving drum 22. Furthermore, the feeding apparatus 40 comprises the quality control sensor 32 for checking the quality of the conveyed rod MA.
- the feeding apparatus 40 comprises the rod rejector 33 for rejecting defective MA rods.
- the rejector 33 comprises the pressure vessel 34 and the valve 35 on the feed channel 36 through which compressed air is supplied.
- the rejection of the rod MA is achieved by momentarily supplying compressed air to the rejection channel 37.
- the force acting on the rod MA is greater than the force holding the rod MA in the flute 28.
- the rejected defective rod is designated MA'.
- the individual flutes 28 may be unfilled. As in the first embodiment, when an unfilled flute 28' appears, the receiving drum 22 is accelerated as described for the first embodiment.
- Fig. 6 shows a pulling out unit 50 for pulling out the group G of segments A from the flute 29 of the conveying drum 23 in a direction substantially corresponding to the axis of rotation k of the conveying drum 23.
- the pulling out unit is situated under the conveying drum 23.
- the pulling out unit 50 is provided with lugs 51 arranged at equal intervals along a chain 52.
- the path of movement of the chain 52 is such as to allow the lug 51 to pass through the flute 29" when it is in its lowest position as indicated in Fig. 5 , the movement of the chain 52 and the conveying drum 23 being synchronised with each other, normally the path of movement of the lug 51 is deviated by a small angle from the axis k in a top view, i.e. as shown in Fig. 6 .
- a method of feeding tobacco industry rod-like articles in the form of rods MA between the receiving drum 22 and the conveying drum 23 comprises the step of identifying the empty flute 28' on the receiving drum 22. Identifying the empty flute 28' may include observing the flutes on the receiving drum 22 and noticing the empty flute 28' by means of the filling sensor 31 for checking the presence of the rod MA in the flute 28.
- sensors are known in the state of the art and include optical sensors operating in different ranges of visible light, in different axes, vision sensors using computer image analysis.
- the identification of the empty flute can alternatively or complementarily take place by means of a defective rod MA rejection signal coming from the rod MA quality control sensor 32.
- the rejection signal is assigned to a specific MA rod and thus to a specific flute 28 which, after rejection, will become an empty flute 28'.
- the essence of the method according to the invention is that, after identifying the empty flute 28' on the receiving drum 22, the speed w1 of the receiving drum 22 is increased so that, at the point of transfer X of the rod MA to the flute 29 of the conveying drum 23, there is another filled flute 28' of the receiving drum 22 and another empty flute 29' of the conveying drum 23.
- An increase in the speed w1 of the receiving drum 22 causes the receiving drum 22 to accelerate sufficiently so that, at the point of transfer X, the empty flute 29' of the conveying drum 23 meets another filled flute 28" of the receiving drum 22.
