DESCRIPCIONDESCRIPTION

Purito con filtro.Purito with filter.

La presente invencion se refiere a un purito con filtro con tabaco, un filtro que se extiende hasta el extremo del lado de la boca del purito con filtro y con una capa de envoltura, la cual se extiende a lo largo de toda la longitud del purito con filtro.The present invention relates to a cigar with tobacco filter, a filter that extends to the end of the mouth side of the filter cigar and with a wrapping layer, which extends along the entire length of the cigar with filter

Los puritos con filtro convencionales poseen una columna de tabaco que esta rodeada, usualmente, por un capote y una capa de envoltura dispuesta encima del mismo. En un extremo de la columna el filtro esta unido con la columna, con la ayuda de un llamado papel Tipping (revestimiento de filtro). En los puritos con filtro de este tipo se puede reconocer a primera vista en que extremo esta dispuesto el filtro, de manera que el usuario puede encender el purito con filtro sin problemas por el extremo correcto.Conventional filter cigars have a tobacco column that is usually surrounded by a cape and a wrapping layer arranged on top of it. At one end of the column the filter is attached to the column, with the help of a so-called Tipping paper (filter lining). In filter cigars of this type it can be recognized at first sight at which end the filter is arranged, so that the user can turn on the filter cigar without problems at the correct end.

De acuerdo con una nueva disposicion (Directiva-UE 2002/10/EG del 12.02.2002) la capa de envoltura se extiende a lo largo de la longitud total del purito con filtro. En estos productos se fija el filtro con el papel Tipping a la columna rodeada por el capote y es tapado entonces por completo por la capa de envoltura. Con ello se plantea el problema de que el usuario debe mirar con mucha atencion para ver en que extremo del purito con filtro se encuentra el filtro. Cuando el filtro presenta, por ejemplo, acetato de celulosa, que es casi blanco, se puede distinguir todavfa el extremo con el filtro gracias al color del lado frontal del otro extremo del purito con filtro. Sin embargo, son imaginables tambien filtros de tabaco, es decir hechos de tabaco, lo que hace muy diffcil la diferenciacion de ambos extremos del purito con filtro.In accordance with a new provision (EU Directive 2002/10 / EG of 12.02.2002) the wrapping layer extends along the total length of the filter cigar. In these products the filter with the Tipping paper is fixed to the column surrounded by the bonnet and is then completely covered by the wrapping layer. This raises the problem that the user must look closely to see where the filter is at the end of the filter. When the filter has, for example, cellulose acetate, which is almost white, one can still distinguish the end with the filter thanks to the color of the front side of the other end of the filter cigar. However, tobacco filters are also imaginable, that is to say made of tobacco, which makes it very difficult to differentiate both ends of the filter cigar.

El documento FR 2 632 496 A describe un purito con filtro con tabaco y con un filtro, el cual se parece a un filtro de cigarrillo, pero que es mas corto. El filtro se une a la columna de tabaco, no se extiende sin embargo hasta el extremo del lado de la boca del purito con filtro. Detras del filtro se encuentra todavfa tabaco, con lo cual debe ser conservada la sensacion acostumbrada de un puro (o de un cigarrillo) en los labios. El filtro esta dispuesto debajo de una capa de envoltura comun de tabaco y de filtro y no es por ello visible.Document FR 2 632 496 A describes a cigar with a tobacco filter and a filter, which looks like a cigarette filter, but which is shorter. The filter is attached to the tobacco column, but does not extend to the end of the mouth side of the filter cigar. Behind the filter is still tobacco, with which the usual sensation of a cigar (or a cigarette) on the lips should be preserved. The filter is arranged under a layer of common tobacco wrap and filter and is therefore not visible.

La invencion se plantea el problema de crear una posibilidad de diferenciar sin mas, tambien entonces, en un purito con filtro los dos extremos tambien cuando la capa de envoltura se extienda a lo largo de todo el purito con filtro.The invention raises the problem of creating a possibility of differentiating without further ado, also then, in a filter with the two ends also when the wrapping layer extends along the entire filter with the filter.

Este problema se resuelve mediante un purito con filtro con las caracterfsticas de la reivindicacion 1. Las configuraciones ventajosas de la invencion resultan de las reivindicaciones subordinadas.This problem is solved by means of a filter filter with the characteristics of claim 1. The advantageous configurations of the invention result from the dependent claims.

El purito con filtro segun la invencion contiene tabaco y un filtro, en su zona final del lado de la boca. Como revestimiento exterior sirve una capa de envoltura, la cual se extiende a lo largo de toda la longitud del purito con filtro. El tabaco esta rodeado por debajo de la capa de envoltura preferentemente por un capote, estando unido el filtro mediante un revestimiento de filtro con la columna de tabaco rodeada por el capote. Segun la invencion esta prevista una marca de tipo banderola la cual esta dispuesta en la mitad del lado de la boca de la capa de envoltura y que deja libre el extremo del lado de la boca (o la zona final del lado de la boca) del purito con filtro.The filter cigar according to the invention contains tobacco and a filter, in its final area of the side of the mouth. An outer shell serves as a wrapping layer, which extends along the entire length of the filter cigar. The tobacco is surrounded below the wrapping layer preferably by a hood, the filter being joined by a filter lining with the tobacco column surrounded by the hood. According to the invention, a flag-type mark is provided which is arranged in the middle of the mouth side of the wrapping layer and which leaves the end of the mouth side (or the end area of the mouth side) free of the purito with filter.

La posicion de la marca de tipo banderola remite sin problemas a la orientacion del purito con filtro y de la posicion de su extremo por el lado de la boca. Dado que el propio extremo del lado de la boca no esta cubierto por la marca de tipo banderola, no se ven influenciadas las propiedades del purito con filtro en la zona final, relativamente importante para el comportamiento del humo, por la marca de tipo banderola.The position of the flag-type brand refers smoothly to the orientation of the filter cigar and the position of its end on the side of the mouth. Since the end of the mouth side itself is not covered by the flag-type mark, the properties of the filter cigar in the final area, relatively important for smoke behavior, are not influenced by the flag-type mark.

En una forma de realizacion ventajosa la marca de tipo banderola esta configurada a modo de banderola, que se extiende a lo largo de todo el diametro de la capa de envoltura. Al mismo tiempo la banderola puede ser fabricada como parte independiente y estar fijada en la capa de envoltura, por ejemplo, mediante pegado, preferentemente mediante encolado en toda la superficie con la capa de envoltura. La banderola puede estar colocada tambien tensa sobre la capa de envoltura y estar fijada en si, de manera que no pueda resbalarse o ser retirada por encima de la capa de envoltura. Como material para la banderola se consideran, por ejemplo, papel, tabaco reconstituido y material laminar, tambien material laminar transparente como por ejemplo, celulosa. La banderola puede estar dotada con capacidad de autoextincion para impedir que el purito con filtro se pueda quemar por completo por descuido. Esto se consigue, por ejemplo, mediante la adicion retardantes (como por ejemplo, alginatos, celulosa, sales). En formas de realizacion preferidas de la invencion la banderola esta impresa.In an advantageous embodiment, the flag-type mark is configured as a banner, which extends along the entire diameter of the wrapping layer. At the same time, the flag can be manufactured as an independent part and fixed in the wrapping layer, for example, by gluing, preferably by gluing the entire surface with the wrapping layer. The banner can also be placed taut on the wrapping layer and fixed in itself, so that it cannot slip or be removed above the wrapping layer. As material for the banner are considered, for example, paper, reconstituted tobacco and sheet material, also transparent sheet material such as cellulose. The banner can be equipped with self-extinguishing capacity to prevent the filter cigar from being completely burned by carelessness. This is achieved, for example, by the addition of retardants (such as alginates, cellulose, salts). In preferred embodiments of the invention the banner is printed.

La marca de tipo banderola no tiene que estar formada como parte independiente, sino que puede estar impresa tambien sobre la capa de envoltura del purito con filtro.The flag-type mark does not have to be formed as an independent part, but it can also be printed on the filter wrapper layer.

Como tecnicas de impresion para la impresion de la banderola se tienen en consideracion, tanto en el caso de banderolas independientes asf como tambien en el caso de una marca impresa, la impresion en huecograbado o procedimientos de impresion en relieve (impresion flexografica e impresion por estampado). La impresion de la banderola puede tener lugar de manera online, gracias a que durante la fabricacion del purito con filtro se imprime de la manera deseada la capa de envoltura o una banderola arrollada previamente alrededor de la capa de envolturaAs printing techniques for the printing of the banner are considered, both in the case of independent banners as well as in the case of a printed brand, gravure printing or embossing procedures (flexographic printing and printing by printing ). The printing of the banner can take place online, thanks to the fact that during the manufacture of the filter cigar the wrapping layer or a banner wrapped around the wrapping layer is printed in the desired way

y sujeta a ella. En el ultimo caso la banderola puede ser dotada, antes de ser dispuesta sobre la capa de envoltura, tambien ya con otras impresiones o caracterizaciones. Un procedimiento “Offline” es adecuado en especial en banderolas independientes las cuales pueden ser impresas, unidas entre si, sobre pliegos o cintas sin fin y ser separadas despues y fijadas a la capa de envoltura del purito con filtro.and subject to it. In the latter case the banner can be provided, before being placed on the wrapping layer, also with other impressions or characterizations. An "Offline" procedure is especially suitable for independent banners which can be printed, joined together, on endless sheets or tapes and then separated and fixed to the wrapper layer of the filter cleaner.

La marca de tipo banderola esta configurada preferentemente de forma decorativa, por ejemplo, con un logo. Puede estar impresa con una indicacion de advertencia, una publicidad o una indicacion de origen o puede estar caracterizada de otra manera. Como caracterizaciones son adecuados ademas los hologramas. Es asimismo imaginable una marca de tipo banderola sencilla, por ejemplo, monocroma o con tiras de color que discurren paralelas entre si, las cuales se extiende a lo largo del perfmetro del purito con filtro.The flag-type brand is preferably set decoratively, for example, with a logo. It may be printed with a warning indication, an advertisement or an indication of origin or it may be characterized in another way. Holograms are also suitable as characterizations. It is also possible to imagine a simple flag-type mark, for example, monochrome or with colored strips that run parallel to each other, which extends along the puritous perfometer with filter.

La anchura de la marca de tipo banderola puede estar por ejemplo, en el intervalo comprendido entre 3 mm y 16 mm. Mediante esta indicacion se publican tambien todos los valores intermedios. Especialmente ventajosa es un anchura de aproximadamente 8 mm. Los lados longitudinales (es decir de los lados que discurren en la direccion perimetrica del purito con filtro) de la marca de tipo bandolera no tiene que ser rectos o discurrir paralelos entre si.The width of the flag-type mark may be, for example, in the range between 3 mm and 16 mm. Through this indication all intermediate values are also published. Especially advantageous is a width of approximately 8 mm. The longitudinal sides (that is to say the sides that run in the perimetric direction of the filter cigar) of the shoulder type mark do not have to be straight or run parallel to each other.

La zona de la capa de envoltura entre el extremo del lado de la boca del purito con filtro y la marca de tipo bandolera puede tener, por ejemplo, una anchura en el intervalo comprendido entre 10 mm y 30 mm, con lo cual se publican tambien todos los intervalos intermedios, por ejemplo, entre 17 mm y 19 mm o aproximadamente 18 mm.The area of the wrapping layer between the end of the side of the cigar mouth with filter and the shoulder-type mark may, for example, have a width in the range between 10 mm and 30 mm, whereby they are also published all intermediate intervals, for example, between 17 mm and 19 mm or approximately 18 mm.

En formas de realizacion preferidas el purito con filtro presenta una zona de ventilacion con aberturas de ventilacion. Las aberturas de ventilacion se pueden generar, por ejemplo, mediante perforacion con laser o perforacion mecanica. La zona de ventilacion puede estar dispuesta por ejemplo, en un intervalo comprendido entre 9 mm y 30 mm del extremo del lado de la boca del purito con filtro (que comprende tambien una zona parcial pequena de ella o por ejemplo, una lfnea de perforacion que discurre en la direccion perimetrica, que se extiende a lo largo de todo el perfmetro o de una zona parcial de la misma) o una zona intermedia de ella. En una realizacion la zona de ventilacion se encuentra fuera de la zona de filtro a una distancia de 0 mm a 40 mm (o una zona parcial de ella) del extremo del lado de la columna del filtro, es decir desde el extremo en el cual empieza la columna de tabaco. No tiene que estar limitada sin embargo a la columna de tabaco (ventilacion de columna), sino que puede estar dispuesta tambien de forma adicional o exclusiva en la zona de filtro. La zona de ventilacion puede presentar, por ejemplo, una, dos o mas de dos lfneas de perforacion que discurren en direccion perimetrica, si bien son imaginables tambien otras configuraciones.In preferred embodiments, the filter cigar has a ventilation zone with ventilation openings. Ventilation openings can be generated, for example, by laser drilling or mechanical drilling. The ventilation zone may be arranged, for example, in a range between 9 mm and 30 mm from the end of the side of the mouth of the filter cigar (which also includes a small partial area thereof or, for example, a perforation line that it runs in the perimetric direction, which extends along the entire perfometer or a partial zone thereof) or an intermediate zone thereof. In one embodiment the ventilation zone is outside the filter zone at a distance of 0 mm to 40 mm (or a partial zone thereof) from the end of the side of the filter column, that is from the end at which the tobacco column begins. It does not have to be limited, however, to the tobacco column (column ventilation), but it can also be arranged additionally or exclusively in the filter area. The ventilation zone may have, for example, one, two or more of two perforation lines that run in the perimeter direction, although other configurations are also imaginable.

La zona de ventilacion esta dimensionada preferentemente de tal manera que los valores objetivo o los potenciales valores lfmite regulatorios se mantengan o se queden por debajo durante el fumado (en especial segun “Coresta recommended method” N° 64-67 o segun DIN/ISO). El grado de ventilacion puede estar en el intervalo del 10% al 90%, publicandose tambien todos los valores intermedios (por ejemplo 30 % del 70 %, 30 % a 50 %, 10 % a 30 %, 70 % a 90 %).The ventilation zone is preferably sized in such a way that the target values or potential regulatory limit values are maintained or remain below during smoking (especially according to "Coresta recommended method" No. 64-67 or according to DIN / ISO) . The degree of ventilation can be in the range of 10% to 90%, also publishing all intermediate values (for example 30% of 70%, 30% to 50%, 10% to 30%, 70% to 90%).

Una zona de ventilacion en la zona final del lado de la boca del purito con filtro se puede apenas reconocer, si es necesario, a simple vista. Tampoco se puede ver, a causa del revestimiento con la capa de envoltura, en que lugar acaba la columna de tabaco que se puede fumar y empieza la seccion de filtro. Mediante la colocacion de la marca de tipo banderola la invencion hace sin embargo posible dar a conocer al fumador en que lugar empieza la zona de filtracion (con zona de ventilacion y material de filtro) o la zona que esta prevista para fumar.A zone of ventilation in the final area of the side of the mouth of the purito with filter can hardly be recognized, if necessary, with the naked eye. Nor can it be seen, because of the coating with the wrapping layer, where the column of smoking tobacco ends and the filter section begins. By placing the flag-type mark, the invention makes it possible, however, to inform the smoker where the filtration zone begins (with ventilation zone and filter material) or the area that is intended for smoking.

El filtro tiene, por ejemplo, una longitud en el intervalo comprendido entre 4 mm y 30 mm, publicandose tambien todas las zonas intermedias. Es ventajosa una longitud de filtro de aproximadamente comprendida entre 7 mm y 8 mm.The filter has, for example, a length in the range between 4 mm and 30 mm, also publishing all intermediate zones. A filter length of approximately 7 mm to 8 mm is advantageous.

El filtro puede estar fabricado con un material de filtro usual como acetato de celulosa, aunque puede presentar tambien celulosa regenerada (por ejemplo, viscosa). Otros materiales imaginables son, por ejemplo, celulosa o papel. Ademas pueden estar previstos aditivos como por ejemplo un adsorbente, carbon activado, un intercambiador de iones. Una ventaja especial del purito con filtro segun la invencion se pone de manifiesto cuando el filtro presenta tabaco, dado que en este caso los extremos frontales del purito con filtro apenas se diferencian. Un filtro de tabaco puede, por ejemplo, ser fabricado gracias a que durante la fabricacion del purito con filtro la columna de tabaco es compactada en una zona la cual esta prevista como zona de filtro. El filtro puede presentar tambien una boquilla hueca. Asimismo son imaginables filtros de varias piezas.The filter may be made of a usual filter material such as cellulose acetate, although it may also have regenerated cellulose (for example, viscose). Other imaginable materials are, for example, cellulose or paper. In addition, additives such as an adsorbent, activated carbon, an ion exchanger may be provided. A special advantage of the filter cigar according to the invention becomes apparent when the filter has tobacco, since in this case the front ends of the filter cigar hardly differ. A tobacco filter can, for example, be manufactured because, during the manufacture of the filter cigar, the tobacco column is compacted in an area which is intended as a filter zone. The filter may also have a hollow nozzle. They are also imaginable filters of several pieces.

Para la longitud total y el diametro del purito con filtro se tienen en consideracion otras zonas, por ejemplo de 65 mm hasta 120 mm para la longitud total, y de 5 mm a 12 mm para el diametro. Con ello se publican tambien todos los valores intermedios. Los valores preferidos para la longitud total estan entre aprox. 84 mm y aprox. 100 mm. El diametro puede ser por ejemplo de aprox. 8 mm. En otra forma de realizacion el diametro es mayor que o igual a 10,8 mm (es decir que el perfmetro es mayor que o igual a 34 mm).For the total length and diameter of the filter cigar, other areas are considered, for example from 65 mm to 120 mm for the total length, and from 5 mm to 12 mm for the diameter. This will also publish all intermediate values. Preferred values for the total length are between approx. 84 mm and approx. 100 mm The diameter can be for example approx. 8 mm In another embodiment, the diameter is greater than or equal to 10.8 mm (ie the perfometer is greater than or equal to 34 mm).

Como tabaco se puede utilizar cualquier tabaco usual para cigarrillos, por ejemplo mezcla de tabaco sin vena. En una forma de realizacion preferida se pueden utilizar tambien para cigarrillos mezclas tfpicas como por ejemploAs tobacco, any usual tobacco for cigarettes can be used, for example, tobacco mixture without vein. In a preferred embodiment, typical mixtures such as for example can also be used for cigarettes

tabacos Burley, tabacos Virginia y/o tabacos Orient, que se pueden utilizar tambien como mezcla de tabaco sin venas.Burley tobacco, Virginia tobacco and / or Orient tobacco, which can also be used as a mixture of tobacco without veins.

La masa del material de tabaco contenido en el purito con filtro esta por ejemplo en el intervalo comprendido entre 0,5 g y 3,0 g o en un valor intermedio de el y es, preferentemente, o mayor que (o igual a) 1,2 g o mayor que (o igual a) 2,3 g. Aquf la masa se refiere a la totalidad del material de tabaco, es decir al tabaco de la columna de tabaco destinado a ser fumado asf como al tabaco eventual (por ejemplo tabaco reconstituido) en el capote y/o la capa de envoltura. Las formas de realizacion con una masa de tabaco de 2,3 g o mas son particularmente adecuadas para puritos con filtro, que no tienen capote y en los cuales la capa de envoltura esta arrollada axialmente (es decir o de forma helicoidal); aquf el diametro es preferentemente de por lo menos 10,8 mm (es decir que el perfmetro comprende por lo menos 34 mm).The mass of the tobacco material contained in the filter cigar is for example in the range between 0.5 g and 3.0 g at an intermediate value of it and is preferably or greater than (or equal to) 1.2 g or greater than (or equal to) 2.3 g. Here the mass refers to the whole of the tobacco material, that is to say the tobacco of the tobacco column intended to be smoked as well as the eventual tobacco (for example reconstituted tobacco) in the hood and / or the wrapping layer. The embodiments with a tobacco mass of 2.3 g or more are particularly suitable for filter cigars, which do not have a cape and in which the wrapping layer is axially wound (ie or helically); here the diameter is preferably at least 10.8 mm (ie the perfometer comprises at least 34 mm).

La capa de envoltura del purito con filtro puede presentar (al igual que el capote) tabaco reconstituido. La capa de envoltura esta arrollada preferentemente de forma helicoidal. Un angulo de inclinacion ventajoso del arrollamiento es de aproximadamente 30° (medido con respecto al eje longitudinal del purito con filtro; el angulo de inclinacion esta definido aquf por lo tanto de una forma diferente a como lo esta en una rosca de tornillo). Tambien es imaginable que la capa de envoltura no este arrollada de forma helicoidal. Una capa de envoltura enrollada de forma helicoidal puede estar configurada tambien como capa de envoltura natural es decir, en especial, puede estar hecha con una hoja de tabaco.The layer of purito of wrap with filter can present (like the cape) reconstituted tobacco. The wrapping layer is preferably wound helically. An advantageous angle of inclination of the winding is approximately 30 ° (measured with respect to the longitudinal axis of the filter cigar; the angle of inclination is defined here therefore in a different way than it is in a screw thread). It is also imaginable that the wrapping layer is not helically wound. A helically wound wrap layer can also be configured as a natural wrap layer, that is, in particular, can be made with a tobacco leaf.

La marca de tipo bandolera hace posible, en el purito con filtro segun la invencion, una diferenciacion rapida y fiable del extremo dotado con el filtro respecto al extremo que hay que encender. Ademas la marca de tipo banderola puede poner de manifiesto una zona de ventilacion, de manera que durante el fumado este garantizado el mantenimiento de valores marginales, y puede poner de manifiesto la posicion de la zona de filtracion con respecto a la zona destinada al fumado. La marca de tipo banderola proporciona ademas una posibilidad de configurar el purito con filtro de forma correspondiente o de delimitarlo de los cigarrillos.The shoulder type mark makes it possible, in the filter case according to the invention, a fast and reliable differentiation of the end provided with the filter with respect to the end to be turned on. In addition, the flag of the banner type can reveal a ventilation zone, so that during smoking it is guaranteed the maintenance of marginal values, and it can show the position of the filtration zone with respect to the area destined for smoking. The flag-type brand also provides a possibility to configure the filter cigar accordingly or to delimit it from cigarettes.

A continuacion se explica aun mas la invencion mediante un ejemplo de forma de realizacion. El dibujo muestra, enThe invention will be explained further by an example of an embodiment. The drawing shows, in

la Figura 1, una seccion longitudinal esquematica a traves de una forma de realizacion del purito con filtro segun la invencion.Figure 1, a schematic longitudinal section through an embodiment of the filter cigar according to the invention.

En la Figura 1 esta representada una forma de realizacion de un purito con filtro 1 en una seccion longitudinal esquematica. La Figura 1 no esta a escala; por ejemplo, los grosores de los materiales estan indicados exagerados.In Figure 1 is shown an embodiment of a puree with filter 1 in a schematic longitudinal section. Figure 1 is not to scale; for example, the thicknesses of the materials are indicated exaggerated.

El purito con filtro 1 tiene un extremo 2 por el lado de la boca y un extremo 3 por el lado de la columna. Como relleno contiene un tabaco 4 formado para dar la columna de tabaco. En el ejemplo de forma de realizacion el tabaco 4 es una mezcla de tabaco sin vena, como se utiliza para los puritos con filtro. El tabaco puede estar fabricado a partir de una mezcla de tabacos Burley, Virginia y Orient.The filter cleaner 1 has one end 2 on the side of the mouth and one end 3 on the side of the column. As filler it contains a tobacco 4 formed to give the tobacco column. In the exemplary embodiment, tobacco 4 is a mixture of tobacco without veins, as used for filter cigars. Tobacco can be made from a mixture of Burley, Virginia and Orient tobacco.

El tabaco 4 esta rodeado por un capote 6, el cual en el ejemplo de forma de realizacion esta compuesto por tabaco reconstituido. El capote 6 esta arrollado axialmente (es decir no de forma helicoidal) y esta cerrado en una costura longitudinal que no se muestra en la Figura 1, la cual esta realizada como costura pegada.The tobacco 4 is surrounded by a hood 6, which in the exemplary embodiment is composed of reconstituted tobacco. The hood 6 is axially wound (ie not helically) and is closed in a longitudinal seam that is not shown in Figure 1, which is made as glued seam.

En el extremo de la columna de tabaco alejado del extremo 3 del lado de la columna esta dispuesto un filtro 8, el cual presenta acetato de celulosa en el ejemplo de forma de realizacion. Son asimismo imaginables otros materiales de filtro, como por ejemplo celulosa regenerada, papel o tambien tabaco. Para la sujecion del filtro 8 a la columna de tabaco rodeada por el capote 6 sirve un revestimiento de filtro 10 hecho de papel (papel Tipping) el cual es, en direccion axial, mas largo que el filtro 8 y, por consiguiente, se solapa con el capote 6. El revestimiento de filtro 10 esta encolado con el capote 6. El revestimiento de filtro puede estar fabricado tambien con otro material diferente al papel, por ejemplo con tabaco reconstituido.At the end of the tobacco column away from the end 3 of the side of the column is arranged a filter 8, which has cellulose acetate in the exemplary embodiment. Other filter materials, such as regenerated cellulose, paper or tobacco, are also imaginable. For the attachment of the filter 8 to the tobacco column surrounded by the hood 6 a filter liner 10 made of paper (Tipping paper) is used which is, in the axial direction, longer than the filter 8 and, consequently, overlaps with the hood 6. The filter liner 10 is glued with the hood 6. The filter liner may also be made of material other than paper, for example reconstituted tobacco.

Como revestimiento exterior esta prevista una capa de envoltura 12. En el ejemplo de forma de realizacion la capa de envoltura 12 esta fabricada asimismo con tabaco reconstituido. Esta arrollada de manera helicoidal, como se indica en la Figura 1 mediante las rayas que discurren inclinadas. De acuerdo con disposiciones mas recientes la capa de envoltura 12 cubre el revestimiento de filtro 10 por completo, como es el caso en la forma de realizacion segun la Figura 1, y llega por ello desde el extremo 2 del lado de la boca hasta el extremo 3 del lado de la columna del cigarrillo de filtro 1. La zona de la capa de envoltura 12 en las proximidades del extremo 3 del lado de la comuna no esta dibujada en la Figura 1.An outer layer 12 is provided as an outer covering. In the exemplary embodiment, the wrapping layer 12 is also made of reconstituted tobacco. It is wound in a helical manner, as indicated in Figure 1 by the inclined stripes. According to more recent arrangements, the wrapping layer 12 covers the filter lining 10 completely, as is the case in the embodiment according to Figure 1, and thus arrives from the end 2 of the side of the mouth to the end 3 on the side of the filter cigarette column 1. The area of the wrapping layer 12 in the vicinity of the end 3 of the side of the commune is not drawn in Figure 1.

Independientemente de que la capa de envoltura 12 cubra tambien el revestimiento de filtro 10 y, en la medida en que se ha contemplado hasta ahora, el purito con filtro 1 esta fabricado de una manera usual y con los materiales usuales, como es conocido para el experto en la materia. El purito con filtro 1 presenta, ademas, una marca de tipo banderola la cual esta configurada como banderola 14 en el ejemplo de forma de realizacion. La banderola 14 se encuentra en la mitad del lado de la boca del purito con filtro 1 y esta dispuesta en las proximidades del filtro 8, en el ejemplo de forma de realizacion.
