German Patent Application No. 19626679 European Patent Application No. 1108369 International Application Publication No. 2005/002369 German Patent No. 3918137

  Starting from these prior arts, the object of the present invention is to improve the production of rod-shaped articles in the tobacco processing industry, in particular in one filter applicator, and to improve the quality of the production of rod-shaped articles, in particular filter cigarettes.

  The problem is that each group of articles is assembled on an assembly device, in particular an assembly drum, from a first type of rod-shaped article, in particular a filter cork or filter rod, and a second type of rod-shaped article, in particular tobacco stock. The group of articles is wound around the area of the butt portion between the bar-shaped article and the second type of bar-shaped article after the binding paper piece is attached, and the first type of bar-shaped article, in particular, Filter corks or filter rods are wrapped in a wrapping band, or arranged in a rod form where a second type of rod-shaped article, in particular cigarette stock, is wrapped in a wrapping band at one or several times the length of use In the method of manufacturing a bar-shaped article of the tobacco processing industry, in particular a filter cigarette, The front side of each of the binding paper pieces is a second type when the binding paper pieces are attached to the group of articles by the joint position correcting device for the packed bar-like articles, particularly during the horizontal axis conveyance of the bar-like articles to the assembly device. The position of the joint of the packaging band is aligned with or aligned with the second type of rod-shaped article so that it is attached to the outside of the area of the joint formed as the overlapping area of the packaging band of the rod-shaped article Thus, the method is characterized by being operated.

  In particular, in this manufacturing method, a filter cigarette is manufactured and, for example, a filter rod or a filter cork is used as the first type of rod-shaped article. For example, a packaged filter rod having a length of several times is taken out from one magazine and conveyed. It is transported on the drum in the horizontal axis direction, and is transported to the assembly drum, especially when it is cut into double-use filter cork, and the filter rod or filter cork is transported from the magazine to the assembly drum by the joint position correcting device. To be properly operated.

  Furthermore, the claimed method configuration uses tobacco stock as the second type of article, and the packaged tobacco stock is used as a delivery device by a continuous manufacturing machine in the tobacco processing industry, in particular a double continuous manufacturing machine. Under the use of a junction or swivel device, it is delivered to the delivery drum of the filter applicator, and several times the length of tobacco stock is transported to the filter applicator in the transverse direction.

  In this case, within the scope of the present invention, the tobacco stock conveyed in the horizontal axis direction of several times the use length is cut, for example, so that the tobacco stock of one or several times the use length becomes one assembly drum or Acting with a joint position correction device before delivery to the assembly device to change the position of the joint of the cigarette stock wrapping band and after assembling one bar item group from the first type article and the second type article Each of the article groups comprises a piece of binding paper prepared by a coating device, and the band of filter cork in the peripheral direction of the bar-like article group after the article group is wound by the overlapping area of the binding paper pieces attached to each article group It is intended to be placed beside the overlapping area (first type of bar-shaped article) as well as the overlapping area (second type of bar-shaped article) of the cigarette stock wrapping band. To have.

  From a plurality of assembled rod-shaped articles, which are packaged by one first wrapping band, and then packaged a second time by attaching and winding one other binding paper piece in one other process, a rod-shaped article or a group of rod-shaped articles For example, when manufacturing a filter cigarette, whether the joint area of the first wrapping paper and the second wrapping paper is positioned above or below the (first or second type) packaged stick-shaped article Or overlapping.

  Within the scope of this invention, the overlapping region of the end of the wrapping paper is described or formed as a joint. Thus, for example, in the filter attachment machine, there is one bonding portion of the binding paper pieces that surrounds the bonding portion of the wrapping paper (first bonding portion or first overlapping region) and the packaged bar-shaped article (first or second type). It is located above and below one second junction region or one second overlapping region. The arrangement of the two upper and lower joints or the overlapping area of the two wrapping bands is important because the wrapping band is made dense at the first joint of the first wrapping band This is because other attachments to this area are no longer very well attached by the second wrapping paper or the binding paper strip.

  Since the overlap area of the (first) wrapping paper of the bar-shaped article forms one double paper layer or double layer, this overlap area is formed more rigidly than the wrapping band outside the overlap area, and the subsequent processing The (second) binding paper piece mounted on this overlapping area can no longer be applied safely or reliably in some cases, or there is an overlapping area of the first inner wrapping band in the front area of the binding paper piece Is not kept safe.

  On the other hand, the present invention is based on the idea of avoiding an unfavorable combination or arrangement of overlapping regions of the second wrapping band on one (inner) overlapping region of the first wrapping band or binding paper piece. The type of conveyed rod-shaped article is the second type after passing through the joint position correcting device, especially during each separate horizontal direction conveyance before the assembly device and before each bonding paper piece as a second conveyance band is attached. Are processed or manipulated by the joint position correction device so that the rod-shaped article is positioned, aligned or rotated with respect to the overlap area, and then the binding paper piece is manipulated or rotated before After the binding paper piece (second wrapping band) is wound, the overlapping area or the joint portion between the (first) wrapping band and the (second) binding paper piece as the second wrapping band is attached to the stick-shaped article. Assembled rod shape It is arranged in the peripheral direction of the goods group, that is, first and overlapping area of the second package band is formed not overlap in the radial direction.

  The method steps of the present invention can be performed, for example, during double wrapping of filter rods or double wrapping of tobacco stock or other rod-like articles or groups of articles in the tobacco processing industry. In scope, the process of the invention for producing filter cigarettes is carried out before the supply of cigarette stock or filter rods to the assembling apparatus, the cigarette stock or filter cork or filter rod being placed on the assembling apparatus, in particular on the assembling drum, In particular, it is formed into a single bar-like smoking article group consisting of tobacco stock, filter cork, and tobacco stock group. In this case, the method steps are formed in the continuous manufacturing machine after removing the filter rod from the magazine by the joint position correcting device and before supplying to the assembling device or assembling drum, when supplying the filter cork or the filter rod. This is carried out after the cigarette stock is delivered to one delivery drum or at the time of the tobacco stock before delivery to the filter applicator assembling apparatus or assembly drum.

  According to this invention, the method steps are carried out in a method for producing a filter cigarette by manipulating or rotating a rod-shaped article packaged by a joint position correcting device, wherein at least one cigarette stock with one filter cork is one. After assembling on the building drum, the butting point between the cigarette stock or filter corks is then wrapped by one particularly attached piece of bonded paper. In the scope of this invention during tobacco stock and filter cork, rod-shaped articles prepared for packaging by a wrapping band are handled.

  In this case, within the scope of the present invention, the filter rod is removed from the magazine, for example, after the filter rod of several times used length is taken out from the magazine or before the filter cork of one or twice used length is cut. It is operated or (partially) rotated during the supply to one assembly drum by the joint position correction device.

  Further, within the scope of this invention, a double use length of tobacco stock is delivered to a single continuous production machine, in particular after delivery from a double continuous production machine to a single filter applicator or a double use length of tobacco stock. It is manipulated or rotated (partially) by the joint position corrector before cutting, so that the double-use tobacco stock is subsequently cut into single-use tobacco stocks. Then, it is contemplated to be fed to the assembly drum.

  With the joint position correcting device according to the present invention, the relative position or alignment of one bar-shaped article to the receiving recess between the receiving portion and the delivery portion to the conveyor is appropriately rod-shaped to the receiving recess of the conveying member that conveys in the horizontal axis direction appropriately. It is affected or manipulated by the rotation or movement of the article.

  On the other hand, as is known from the prior art, the omission of the joint position correcting device of the present invention means that the overlapping area of two separate wrapping bands is double-wrapped when a bar-shaped article or group of articles is wound. The bar-shaped article is arranged so as to overlap the radial direction of the bar-shaped article so that the front side of one (second) binding paper piece (as the second packing band) is already packed by one first packing band. Attached to the overlapping area.

  Therefore, in the configuration, in particular, the position of the joint portion of the packaging band of the second type packaged rod-shaped article is conveyed by changing the state position of the second type article by a roll star formed as a joint position correcting device. Is intended to be changed to one of the particularly widened recesses.

  Further, particularly in the configuration, the second type of bar-shaped article is formed into one conveying member, particularly one or a plurality of receiving dents of the conveying drum by the joint position correcting device, in particular a bar-shaped article with a certain rotation angle around the vertical axis. Is preferred when rotated during transport to the transport member.

  In this case, according to the present invention, the second type of rod-shaped article is received by the housing recess by the conveyor that conveys in the horizontal axis direction and is conveyed in the horizontal axis direction, and by the action of the joint position correcting device according to the present invention. It is contemplated that the bar-shaped article remains in the receiving recess of the conveyor, during which the bar-shaped article is rotated within the receiving recess about its longitudinal axis by the joint position correction device.

  Preferably, since the bar-shaped article in the housing recess is particularly partially rotated during the conveyance of the article to the conveyor in the horizontal axis direction, this predetermined angle is applied to the continuous conveyor or the continuous drum after the bar-shaped article is rotated by a predetermined angle. Delivered. In particular, with the rotation angle centered on the longitudinal axis of the rod-shaped article, the second type of rod-shaped article is positioned on the transport drum by the joint or overlap region of the (first) packaging band in the continuous processing step or method step. In addition, the binding paper piece is delivered to or attached to the bar-shaped article in advance, and the front side of the binding paper piece and the end side covering the front side are wound around the overlapping area of the packaging band. It is arranged based on the winding later.

  To that end, in another preferred embodiment, the second type of rod-shaped article is used as a joint position correction device on the conveying member under the use of a driven, particularly rotatable or drivable depression of the respective conveying member. It is intended to be rotated at In particular, a conveyance drum is provided as a conveyance member, and an outer jacket of the conveyance member opens, for example, a rotating roller, and performs a rotational movement of the rod-shaped article received between the rotation rollers.

  According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the method, as a second type of rod-shaped article, in particular by a continuous manufacturing machine in the tobacco processing industry, cigarette stocks transported in parallel in the longitudinal direction are simultaneously transported in particular in the transverse direction. The delivery of drums, in particular by means of a delivery device to the delivery drum, to the filter applicator and after delivery of the simultaneously delivered tobacco stock to the delivery drum, each of the tobacco stocks in the receiving recesses is connected to the joint of the cigarette stock wrapping band. It has been proposed to have different relative positions.

  An effective configuration of this method is for the assembly apparatus, in particular for cigarette stocks arranged one after the other in a row and transported in the transverse direction, in particular for each second or nth (n = 3) in a row. 4, 5, 6...) Is operated by a joint position correcting device.

  Moreover, in a preferred reproduction of this method, the joint position correction device allows several times, especially twice as long use length of tobacco stock to be used once before cutting and delivery to the assembly device. It is intended to be manipulated or rotated.

  Furthermore, in a preferable reproduction mode of this method, after the second type rod-shaped article is rotated about the vertical axis, it is placed on the transport member in a line on the transport member in the horizontal axis direction on the transport member, or on the transport member, particularly the transport member. Arranged to deliver a bar-shaped article to, for example, an assembling apparatus, in particular to an assembling drum, and to cause the assembling apparatus to prepare a bar-shaped article group consisting of a first type and a second type of bar-shaped articles. It is contemplated that the group then comprises or is wrapped with a binding paper strip.

  Within the scope of the present invention, the joint portion of the packaging band of the rod-shaped article refers to the junction region and the overlapping region of the overlapping end portions of the packaging band in the longitudinal direction of the rod-shaped article.

  In this case, according to an embodiment, the cigarette stock of one or several times the use length, which is packaged as a second type of rod-shaped article, is preferably assembled after the delivery from the continuous production machine, especially the double continuous production machine. In the case of attachment of the binding paper piece, it is aligned by repositioning under the use of a roll star or a rotatable recess as a joint position correction device in a receiving recess which is particularly wide at that position during transport against The front edge and the edge of the binding paper piece are attached in the radial direction next to the joint area of the (first) wrapping band of the tobacco stock, so that the second overlapping area or the second joint (second ) It is arranged with respect to the peripheral direction of the rod-shaped article near the first overlapping region located inside by the packaging band or the first joint of the first packaging band.

  This method step is carried out in a filter applicator, the filter applicator can receive a double or a continuous production machine several times, especially twice the length of tobacco stock, and the cigarette stock can be single or complex. Tobacco stock reprocessed in the filter applicator, especially cut from the tobacco continuum, is acted on with a joint position correction device, for example a roll star, and the joint position is changed to a particularly wide one of the conveying drums by changing the position of the joint The cigarette stock formed from the other cigarette series of the continuous production machine is not changed in the accommodating depression of the transport drum in its aligned or state position.

  Thereby, for example, it is not necessary to detect the position of the joint of the cigarette stock, so the processing of the cigarette stock produced, for example, in a double continuous production machine is simplified, so that the cigarette to be operated by the joint position correcting device The stock is delivered to the transfer drum of the filter applicator according to a planned alignment or state where the joint position is not always changed.

  By changing the position of the second type of bar article or cigarette stock before feeding to the assembly drum and before adhering the binding paper piece to the formed bar group, It is swiveled or rotated so that the application of the front and end edges of the binding paper piece to the already existing joint is prevented during the application. In this case, the roll star as the joint position correcting device is operated at a peripheral speed that is faster than the transport speed of the cigarette stock in particular, and the appropriate rod-like article is accelerated in the containing recess that is widened by the action of the roll star, As a result, the overlapping area of the cigarette stock or the wrapping band, i.e. the joint, is rotated in the direction of rotation of the conveying member or the conveying drum, thereby changing into the receiving recess at its relative position.

  According to the invention, for a second type of packaged rod-shaped article, in particular cigarette stock, the above method steps are carried out by the joint position correction device so that the rod-shaped article is operated or (partially) rotated. It is intended to be done.

  Further, this problem is to convey a rod-shaped article packaged by the first type of packaging band, particularly a conveying member for conveying a filter rod or filter cork, and a rod-shaped article packaged by the second type of packaging band, particularly a cigarette stock. Assembly device for assembling a bar-shaped article group comprising a conveying member, a second type of packaged bar-shaped article and one second type of packaged bar-shaped article, in particular, an assembly drum, and a bar-shaped article formed with a binding paper piece In the cigarette processing industry machines, particularly filter applicators, comprising means for adhering to a group, applying a second type of conveying direction of rod-shaped articles conveyed in the direction of the horizontal axis in front of the assembling apparatus, the second type Since the joint position correcting device for the packed bar-shaped article is provided along the transport path of the bar-shaped article transported on the second-type transport member, the second-type bar-shaped article packaging band The position of the joint portion is the outside of the joint region where the front side of each of the bound paper pieces is formed as an overlapping region of the packaging strip of the second type stick-shaped article when attaching the bound paper pieces to the stick-shaped article group. Or a machine characterized by being attached.

  Further, in the configuration, the machine is provided with a roll star as a joint position correcting device for the second type of article, and the second type of bar-like article can act on the roll star, so the second type of bar-like article The position of the joint of the wrapping band is changed or changed in one particularly wide receiving recess of the conveying member by changing the state position of the article by the roll stars and by accelerating the article for a short time. It is characterized by being. In this case, the conveying member is formed as a conveying drum, and the conveying drum has an accommodation recess that is wider than the diameter of the rod-shaped article to be transported. In particular, a conveying member or a conveying drum is provided in a machine or a filter attaching machine between the delivery drum and the assembly drum in the conveying direction of the rod-shaped article.

  In the selective configuration of the machine, since each one transport drum is provided with a rotatable recess as a joint position correcting device for the second type article, the second type packaged rod-shaped article It has been proposed that the position of the joint of the wrapping band is changed or changed by the rotation of the housing recess.

  For this reason, in the reproduction mode, preferably, the joint position correcting device for the second type of article, particularly for the cigarette stock, is cut along the transfer path of the second type of article and the second type of article. It is arranged between the devices so as to cut a second type article of several times the use length into a second type article of normal use length, in particular a single use length of tobacco stock. Is intended.

  Furthermore, the construction of the machine may include a second position of the second or nth row, particularly in the case of cigarette stock transported in the transverse direction which are arranged one after the other with respect to the assembly device by means of the joint position correction device. The th (n = 3, 4, 5, 6...) Cigarette stock can be manipulated, manipulated, rotated, or rotated.

  For example, in a cigarette double continuous production machine, two (endless) packaged tobacco continuums are produced, and the output of the continuous production machine from the joint or overlapping area of the two tobacco continuum wrapping bands and the tobacco continuum. The joints of the tobacco stock cut to the side are produced on a continuous production machine with their clearly defined position or alignment. In particular, the joint formed under the use of the joint plate device of the continuous production machine is formed on the upper side of the tobacco continuum.

  Longitudinally parallel to the continuous production machine with one each defined joint state by a delivery device formed as a confluence between the continuous production machine and the filter applicator to rework the tobacco stock When the two cigarettes transported are delivered, the cigarette stocks are delivered in pairs to the delivery drum of the filter applicator, so the cigarette stocks prepared side by side are transported in the horizontal axis direction and the next Based on the (three-dimensional) insertion during simultaneous delivery to the conveying member, it is contemplated that the joint state or relative position of the tobacco stock is alternately aligned within the receiving recess.

  Thereby, the cigarette stock is arranged in the housing recess of the conveying member at two different relative positions of the joint and is conveyed in the horizontal axis direction. In particular, the positions and relative alignments of the joints of the cigarette stock arranged one after the other in a packaged row are alternately formed in the housing recess. In this case, each second or nth (n> 2) cigarette stock is in that position based on the alternating relative alignment within the receiving recess of the joint using the joint position correction device of the present invention. While it has been appropriately changed or corrected by a predetermined angle, no other tobacco stock has been changed to the containment well in that state.

  Especially in machines or filter applicators, the above process steps are carried out during the transport of filter rods or tobacco stock. To avoid repetition, reference is made explicitly to the above method steps.

  The overlapping area of the packaging band of the second type of rod-shaped article or the joint position alignment or state in the housing recess is changed in cooperation with the joint position correcting device, and an appropriate rod-shaped article before the binding paper piece is attached. The joint area is aligned or oriented, and the front side of the binding paper piece is then implanted outside the overlapping area of the (first) wrapping band when the binding paper piece is attached, thereby joining the overlapping area. After the stick-shaped article is wound by the paper piece, it is formed or arranged beside or outside the overlapping region of the first wrapping band in the radial direction.

  Further, in the configuration, the junction type position correcting device causes the second type of rod-shaped article to be conveyed into the conveying member, in particular, one or a plurality of receiving dents of the conveying drum, and the rod-shaped article to the conveying member particularly at a predetermined angle around the vertical axis. It is preferable when it is rotated during the conveyance. In this case, according to the present invention, the bar-shaped article is received by the housing recess in the conveyor that transports in the horizontal axis direction and is transported in the horizontal axis direction, and the bar-shaped article is received by the operation of the joint position correcting device of the present invention. On the other hand, it is contemplated that the rod-shaped article is rotated within the housing recess about its longitudinal axis by the joint position correcting device.

  Preferably, since the rod-shaped article is rotated in the housing recess during the conveyance of the article to the conveyor in the horizontal axis direction, the rod-shaped article is delivered to the continuous conveyor or the continuous conveyance drum after the rod-shaped article is turned by a predetermined angle. . In particular, the rotation angle is determined in advance so that the rod-shaped article is positioned on the conveyance drum by the joining portion or the overlapping region of the packaging band in the continuous processing step or the method step, centering on the longitudinal axis of the rod-shaped article. The binding paper piece is handed over or attached to the bar-shaped article, and the front side and the end side covering the front side of the binding paper piece are arranged outside the overlapping area of the packaging band after the bar-shaped article is wound.

  In this case, in the scope of the present invention, since the rod-shaped article aligned by the joint position correcting device of the present invention is delivered to the conveyance drum provided with the binding paper piece, the delivered rod-shaped article is positioned on another conveyance drum. Then, after the delivered bar-shaped article is wound, an overlapping region of the outer binding paper pieces is formed radially outside the overlapping region of the inner wrapping band.

  Other features of the invention will be apparent from the description of the embodiments of the invention together with the claims and the accompanying drawings. Embodiments of the present invention can satisfy individual features or a combination of features.

  The invention will now be described on the basis of an embodiment with reference to the drawings without limitation of the general inventive idea, and will be explicitly referred to in the drawings with respect to details of the invention which are not explained in detail in all text. The

The filter applicator is schematically shown in front view. 1 schematically shows in cross section a perspective view of a transport drum in a drum arrangement for transporting tobacco stock. A detailed view of the transport drum shown in FIG. 2 is schematically shown in cross section.

  In the following figures, appropriate new referrals are not made, since the same or similar elements or appropriate members each have the same reference number.

  In FIG. 1, the filter applicator is shown in cross-section in the front view, and the double use length from the cigarette continuous production machine P, which is schematically shown through a drum arrangement in which the filter applicator feeds tobacco stock. Receive the tobacco stock. One cigarette continuous production machine is known under the patent applicant's name “PROTOS”.

  The drum array T includes a delivery drum 15, and a cigarette stock having a double use length is received from the cigarette continuous manufacturing machine P by the delivery drum and delivered to the continuous conveyance drum 16 in the horizontal axis direction. Since the cigarette stock is connected to the conveying drum 16 and delivered to the continuous cutting drum 17, the double use length cigarette stock is doubled by the cutting knife placed on the cutting drum 17. Disconnected.

  According to this, since the cigarette stock having a single use length is delivered to the continuous leg drum 19 as a pair of cigarette stocks, the cigarette stock of the cigarette stock pair is opened on the leg drum 19 in the vertical axis direction. The spacing between the opposed head ends of the cigarette stocks that are legged and spaced apart from each other in the longitudinal direction is very large, and in the continuation process, twice as long a filter cork will be Is inserted between tobacco stocks spaced in the longitudinal direction. Connected to the open leg drum 19, the cigarette stock is delivered to the assembly drum 21 via the transport drum 20.

  The cigarette continuous production machine P can be used as a single continuous production machine for producing one cigarette continuum, or a several times continuous production machine for producing a plurality of, in particular, two parallel tobacco stocks simultaneously (and in parallel), in particular a double. A cigarette stock (as a second type of rod-shaped article) that is formed as a continuous manufacturing machine and received by the continuous cigarette manufacturing machine P from the delivery drum 15 and wrapped by one (first) wrapping band They are arranged in a line with each other and are transported on the delivery drum 15 in the horizontal axis direction.

  When delivering two parallel transported cigarette stocks from one double belt continuous production machine P to the delivery drum 15, one (three-dimensional) cigarette stock delivered in a pair is not changed or constant. Since it is handed over by the insertion part, the relative positions of the joints or overlapping areas of the packaged tobacco stock in the housing recess are different. At the same time, the transport drum is transported in the transport drum by accurately defining and aligning the joints of the cigarette stock packaging band transported during the delivery of the cigarette stock delivered to the filter applicator with the continuous production machine P and the constant insertion part. Tobacco stock is disposed in the receiving well with respect to the relative alignment of the overlapping areas of the wrapping band in two different predetermined types.

  A double-use cigarette stock is cut on the conveying path with respect to the assembly drum 21 and opened in the vertical axis direction. On the assembly drum 21, a double-length filter cork is transported via another drum arrangement M and is fitted between two longitudinally spaced tobacco stocks. Thereby, on the assembly drum 21, a series of cigarette stock, filter cork, and cigarette stock groups arranged in the front-rear direction in the horizontal axis direction are formed as a bar-shaped article group.

  The drum arrangement M includes one take-out drum 11 and is used by the take-out drum from a single (not shown here) filter rod magazine by several first use bands (one The filter rod is taken out (as the first kind of rod-shaped article) and cut into double-use filter corks by one or more cutting knives 11a arranged on the take-out drum 11 under the conveyance in the horizontal axis direction. Thus, the filter cork is thereby knitted on the stair drum 12. Connected to the stair drum 12, the filter corks are arranged on the slide drum 13 in a row in the horizontal axis and back and forth, and delivered to the assembly drum 21 by the next insertion drum formed as an acceleration drum.

  The assembled bar-like article group consisting of the cigarette stock, filter cork, and cigarette stock group is transferred from the assembling drum 21 to the transfer drum 22, so that the assembled cigarette stock, filter cork, and cigarette stock group can reach the coating device. Transported. German Patent No. 3918137 (Patent Document 4) describes a coating device in detail and has been adopted extensively in the content of this application.

  The coated paper strip 111 glued and conveyed is cut into a coated paper piece or a bonded paper piece by the knife of the knife drum 113 on the cutting drum 112 of the coating device 110. The cut pieces of bonded paper are each delivered to or attached to the article group or cigarette stock / filter cork / cigarette stock group on the transport drum 22.

  After attaching the individual bound paper pieces cut into one article group to each, the bar-like article group is further transported to one continuous roll drum 26 and one roll device 27, thereby binding paper pieces (second packaging). Is wrapped completely around the cigarette stock, filter cork, cigarette stock group. In one configuration, the roll device 27 includes a web ring, a roll hand having a roll surface, and a roll roller on the exit side. The roll surface and the roll drum 26 form a single roll path, and are wound by a bound paper piece in an article group. As a result, a double-length filter cigarette is formed.

  The double-length filter cigarette is then transferred to one transport drum 28 and then to another transport drum 29, where it is prepared in the filter applicator for further processing.

  A double-length filter cigarette is conveyed from the conveyance drum 29 to the cutting drum 31 via the conveyance drum 30, and a single cutting knife 32 is disposed on the cutting drum, and the double-length filter cigarette is A filter cigarette with a single use length is produced by two central separating blades.

  The filter cigarette is subsequently transferred from the cutting drum 31 to the open leg drum 33. A pair of filter cigarettes is spaced apart from each other in the longitudinal (longitudinal) axial direction on the open leg drum 33, and subsequently delivered to one first inspection drum 34. One inspection member 44 is arranged on the inspection drum 34, and the filter cigarette is subjected to a first inspection, for example, a head end inspection.

Further, within the present invention, the inspection member 44 allows a cigarette optical inspection to be performed on the drum 34.

  Subsequently, the filter cigarette is transferred from the inspection drum 34 to the next second inspection drum 35, and the inspection drum is provided with one second inspection member 45, and the cigarette is subjected to quality inspection or at least one pre-listing. Then, the inspection drum 35 is inspected.

  FIG. 2 schematically shows a perspective view of the transport drum 16, which transport drum is transported from one cigarette continuous production machine P to one assembly drum 21 and has a drum arrangement T (see FIG. 1). It is a constituent member. The transport drum 16 transports cigarette stocks 50 arranged one after the other in the horizontal axis direction, and the cigarette stocks are disposed in the housing recesses (see FIG. 3).

  In FIG. 3, a detailed perspective view of the transport drum 16 is schematically shown in cross section, and the transport drum 16 includes a drum member that is rotationally driven and includes an accommodation recess 160. The housing recess 160 is formed to be wide in the horizontal axis direction and has two housing grooves 161 and 163 arranged side by side, and one holding shoulder 162 is formed between these housing grooves.

  When the cigarette stock 50 is transferred from the transfer drum 15 to the transfer drum 16 (see FIG. 1), the cigarette stock 50 is applied in the transfer direction of the transfer drum 16 and is arranged in the rear receiving groove 161. In this case, the suction air hole of the accommodation groove 161 is subjected to negative pressure, and the tobacco stock 50 is held in the accommodation groove 161 while the tobacco stock 50 is being conveyed.

  During the transport, the cigarette stock 50 is retransmitted in the direction of the roll star 70 arranged on the transport drum 16. The roll star 70 has a projecting slide member 71 arranged on a drum member which is driven to rotate on the outer surface at a predetermined, particularly regular interval, and the slide member has a single indentation 72.

  Since the roll star 70 is driven in the direction opposite to the conveying drum 16, the slide member 71 is operated with the cigarette stock 50, so that the dent 72 of the slide member 71 engages with the cigarette stock 50 disposed in the receiving groove 161. .

  Since the slide member 71 is rotated as the housing recess 160 at a higher transport speed, the cigarette stock is moved from the rear housing groove to the front housing groove 163 in the transport direction by the action of the dent 72 on the cigarette stock 50, The packaged tobacco stock 50 (as a second type of bar) is brought onto the transport drum 16 at another moved position by the overlap region at the end of the packaging band, and the packaging band joint of the tobacco stock 50 is introduced. In the further processing step, the alignment and position of the overlap area is called a filter applicator, and the front and rear sides of the coated paper piece are attached to the formed stick-shaped article group when the coated paper piece is attached as a binding paper piece. A two-layer formation of the overlapping region, which is attached to the outside of the overlapping region of the first wrapping band of the stock and is thus arranged vertically in two radial directions, It is avoided by packaging band.

  By moving or repositioning the cigarette stock 50 to the receiving recess 160 by swiveling the cigarette stock 50 by a predetermined rotation angle based on the rapidly rotating roll star 70, the overlapping area of the wrapping band of the cigarette stock 50 is also transferred to the transport drum 16. It is rotated in the direction of rotation. In this case, the peripheral speed of the slide member 71 is faster than the conveying speed or the peripheral speed of the cigarette stock 50 to be moved. By repositioning or rotating the tobacco stock 50, these cigarette stocks are affected in alignment so that application of the joint to the filter cigarette formed from the two wrapping bands is prevented.

  In particular, the movement of the cigarette stock 50 or the position change of the cigarette stock 50 from the rear housing groove 161 in the transport direction to the front housing groove 163 in the transport direction causes the cigarette stock 50 or the cigarette stock 50 to have a swiveling joint portion, for example. Only 20 ° is achieved. A rotation of preferably greater than 20 ° is carried out into the receiving recess 160 of the transport drum 16 by changing the position of the tobacco stock 50.

  An embodiment of this invention of the joint position correction device is prepared by the roll star 70 shown in FIG.

  In particular, the roll star 70 causes each second cigarette stock 50 to overlap the first wrapping zone which wraps the joint position or cigarette stock in a packaged cigarette stock 50 which is arranged on the conveying drum 16 in a row in the longitudinal direction. It is manipulated or rotated with reference to the position of the area, because the cigarette stock delivered in pairs is (three-dimensionally) unchanged or constantly charged from the double band continuous production machine P to the filter applicator. Because of the delivery, the relative position of the joints or the overlap area of the packaged tobacco stock is different within the containment recess, or the cigarette stock on the transport drum is two different with reference to the relative alignment of the overlap area of the wrapper band. It is because it is arrange | positioned in the accommodation hollow with a predetermined kind.

  In order to change the position of the cigarette stock 50 on the transport drum 16, within the scope of the invention, the transport drum 16 is provided with a rotatable receiving recess so that the position or alignment of the overlapping area of the wrapping band of the cigarette stock 50. The cigarette stock 50 in this case can be rotated about its longitudinal axis.

  In the embodiment (shown here), the transport drum 16 or one other transport drum is formed along the transport path of tobacco stock between the transfer drum 15 and the assembly drum 21 with a rotatable housing recess. Then, the cigarette stock 50 delivered to the filter applicator is rotated about its longitudinal axis by an unfavorable joint position in the housing recess. Thereby, it is achieved that the cigarette stock 50 is changed in the registration of the joint position during transport to the assembly drum 21 by the joint position to be corrected inconveniently.

  Within the scope of the invention, similarly, the packaged cigarette stock provided with the printed mark or the printed character by the joint position correcting device of the present invention has a printed mark or the like applied to the packaging band, It can be operated so that the band joint position is formed outside the area of the printed mark in the peripheral direction. Thereby, the joint position of the second wrapping band with respect to one print mark may be aligned or aligned so that the overlap region of the wrapping band and the print mark are not positioned in a line. Achieved.

  As a result, the position of the print mark on the (first) wrapping strip of cigarette stock is stick-shaped on each front side of the binding paper strip when the binding paper piece is attached to the article group (as the second packaging strip) by the joint position correcting device. Aligned or aligned to be attached outside the printed mark area of the article or tobacco stock wrapping band.
