Description

Cigarette {CIGARETTE}

The present invention relates to a cigarette having a cigarette filter including a perfume capsule.

Conventionally, fragrance capsules are assembled in a filter for a cigarette, and fragrance capsules are broken at the time of use to enjoy the fragrance of the contents liquid at the time of smoking or to mask the smell of the butt after digestion (Patent Document 1 And 2). Details of perfume capsules are described, for example, in Patent Document 3.

Since the tipping paper or the plug winding role plays the role of a blindfolder for preventing the joint between the filter and the tobacco rod from being visible or for preventing the color of tar adhering to the filter medium of the filter from being visible by smoking, One paper is being used. In addition, in the case of the charcoal filter, the opaque tipping paper or the plug winding role also plays a role of preventing the color of the activated carbon from being seen in addition to the above-mentioned role.

On the other hand, the inside of the filter is made visible by using a transparent tipping paper or a transparent plug spirally wound (Patent Documents 4 to 6).

Patent Document 4 discloses that a transparent material is used as a tipping paper or a plug winding for visualizing the interior of a filter, and a function of a blindfold is provided by applying an opaque coating to a part of the tipping paper. Patent Document 4 exemplifies polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, cellulose acetate film, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene oxide, polyethylene, cellophane, Natureflex (registered trademark) and polyacetic acid as a transparent material. Further, in Patent Document 4, it is disclosed that the tipping paper or the plug winding can be translucent by coloration in order to provide an aesthetic effect to the filter if the inside of the filter can be visualized.

Patent Document 5 discloses the use of a transparent film material so that the fragrant particles in the filter can be visually observed as a tipping paper or a plug winding. Examples of the transparent film material include polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, and cellulose acetate film do.

Patent Document 6 discloses the use of a transparent material as a tipping paper or a spiral wound in order to visualize the effect of extracting toxic substances.

Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-250665 Patent Document 2: Japanese Patent Specification No. 2007-520204 Patent Document 3: Japanese Patent Application No. 2008-546400 Patent Document 4: International Publication No. 2009/106374 pamphlet Patent Document 5: Japanese Patent Publication No. 5-45198 Patent Document 6: International Publication No. 2004/068975

The present inventors found that there is a problem that when the cigarette containing the flavor capsule in the filter portion is wrapped with the opaque plug winding or the opaque tip paper, it is difficult to know the position of the flavor capsule when the smoker shreds the flavor capsule, and It is noted that there is a problem that after the capsules are crushed, it is not known that the capsule contents liquid has developed in the filter.

When a transparent tip paper or a transparent plug sponge is used for visualizing the flavor capsules in the filter, the above-mentioned blindfold function (that is, the joint of the filter and the tobacco rod is not visible or the color of the tar adhered to the filter material of the filter is visible Is damaged). In addition, when the fragrant capsules are visualized using the transparent tip paper or the transparent plug spirally wound, it is possible to recognize the destruction of the capsules. However, since the capsule content liquid is very small, it's difficult.

The present invention, therefore,

(a) the tip paper and the spool of the plug maintain the blind function,

(b) When the smoker shreds the perfume capsule in the filter, it is possible to visually recognize the position of the capsule through the tip paper and the plug winding direction, and

(c) A cigarette having a tip paper and a plug winding, which can visually recognize that the capsule contents liquid has spread in the filter through the tip paper and the plug winding after the capsule is crushed.

Until now, the cigarette containing the flavor capsule is intended to prevent the capsule contents liquid released by destruction of the capsule from generating stain on the plug wind-up or the tip paper. For example, a lipophilic solvent In the case of use, inner hold (oil resistant paper) is preferably used as the plug pulling effect. On the other hand, the present inventors have completed the present invention by attaching a capsule contents solution to a semitransparent plug winding, and causing a stain having a higher transparency to occur in the plug winding direction.

That is, according to the present invention,

A tobacco rod including a tobacco filler and a tobacco wrapper wrapping around the tobacco filler;

A plurality of filter plugs disposed apart from each other; a plug winding target wound around the filter plug so as to form a hollow portion between the filter plugs; and a retaining member located in the hollow portion, A filter including a fragrance capsule,

A tobacco rod connected to the tobacco rod and the filter, and a tip paper wound on the filter,

The plug winding direction is impermeable to the content liquid,

The opacity of the laminated paper composed of the plug winding tip and the tip paper is 70% or less before (i) destruction of the perfume capsules, (ii) when the content liquid released by destruction of the perfume capsules is attached to the plug winding up , And the cigarette is reduced by 5% or more.

According to the cigarette of the present invention,

(a) The tip paper and the spool of the plug maintain the function of the blindfold,

(b) When the smoker shreds the perfume capsule in the filter, it is possible to visually recognize the position of the capsule through the tip paper and the plug winding direction, and

(c) After the capsules are crushed, spots on the plug winding are generated by the capsule contents liquid, thereby visually recognizing that the capsule contents liquid has expanded in the filter.

3 is an explanatory view showing a cigarette of an embodiment of the present invention;

The present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings, wherein the following description is intended to illustrate the invention in detail, but is not intended to limit the invention.

1A and 1B are cross-sectional views showing a part of the cigarette of the present invention. Fig. 1A shows the cigarette before breaking the fragrance capsule 23, and Fig. 1B shows the cigarette after crushing the fragrance capsule 23. Fig.

The cigarettes shown in Figs. 1A and 1B are provided with a filter 20 in which a flavor capsule 23 is accommodated in a hollow portion formed of a tobacco rod 10, two filter plugs 21a and 21b and a plug take- The tobacco rod 10 and the filter 20 are connected by a tip paper 30. The cigarettes shown in Figs. 1A and 1B have a cylindrical shape as a whole, like the ordinary filter-attached cigarette.

The tobacco rod 10 is composed of a cigarette filler 11 and a cigarette wrapper 12 surrounding the cigarette filler 11 and has a diameter of 5 to 10 mm and a length of 40 to 80 mm .

The filter 20 includes two filter plugs 21a and 21b disposed apart from each other through a hollow portion and a plug winding 22 wound around the filter plug to form a hollow portion between the filter plugs 21a and 21b , And a perfume capsule (23) housed in a hollow portion between the filter plug and holding a content liquid containing perfume in the capsule. The filter 20 has a diameter substantially equal to that of the tobacco rod 10, and the length thereof may be, for example, 15 to 40 mm, as in a normal filter.

In the cigarettes of Figs. 1A and 1B, two filter plugs 21a and 21b are disposed through one hollow portion, but n (n is an integer of 2 or more) filter plugs are arranged through (n-1) hollow portions For example, n is 2 to 4, preferably n is 2 to 3, and more preferably n is 2.

The filter plugs 21a and 21b may be made of a fibrous filter material such as cellulose acetate fiber as in the case of the ordinary filter-attached cigarette. The filter plug may be composed of only a fibrous filter material or may be composed of a fibrous filter material and a material paper (material paper) wound around the fibrous filter material. The filter plug 21a on the side of the side and the filter plug 21b on the side of the inlet may have the same material and structure or different materials and structures.

The plug winding 22 is wound around the two filter plugs 21 and consequently forms a hollow portion together with the two filter plugs 21a and 21b. The plug winding direction 22 is semitransparent and has an opacity to such an extent that the perfume capsule 23 located in the hollow portion can be visually recognized. That is, the plug winding target 22 has such a degree of opacity that the smoker can visually recognize the position of the perfume capsule when the perfume capsule in the filter is crushed. For this reason, the plug winding target 22 also has a function of a blindfolder for preventing the structure inside the filter from being seen. Further, when the capsular content solution released by destruction of the flavor capsule is adhered, the opacity of the plug sponge 22 is lowered, and the visibility level of the flavor capsule is increased. That is, the plug winding direction 22 increases in transparency at the position where the capsule contents liquid adheres, so that the outline of the broken fragrance capsule can be clearly seen. Means that the outline of the destroyed fragrance capsule is clearly visible, specifically, the evaluation point is increased in accordance with the evaluation criteria described in Table 1 to be described later. Thereby, the smoker can visually recognize that the capsule contents liquid has expanded in the hollow portion.

As described above, according to the present invention, a capsule contents solution is attached to a semitransparent plug winding, a speck with higher transparency is generated in the plug winding direction, and the capsule contents liquid spreads in the hollow portion Can be visually recognized. Thereby, the smoker can enjoy the smell after confirming that the capsule contents liquid has sufficiently expanded in the hollow portion.

In order to show the above-mentioned effect, the plug winding target 22 in the present invention specifically has the following three requirements.

(1) The plug winding direction is impermeable to the capsule contents liquid.

(2) The laminate composed of the plug winding tip and the tip paper has an opacity of 70% or less.

(3) The laminate composed of the plug winding tip paper and the tip paper has opacity of 5% or more lower than that before the capsule fracture when the capsular content solution released by destruction of the perfume capsules adheres.

In the present invention, the tip paper is preferably transparent, and when the tip paper is transparent, the opacity is generally 0.5 to 3%. As the transparent tip paper, for example, NatureFlex 23μ (Innovia) or NatureFlex 42μ (Innovia) can be used as a base film for a tip paper. Therefore, when the tip paper is transparent, the tip paper does not substantially affect the opacity of the laminated paper. Therefore, when the tip paper is transparent, the requirement of (2) is expressed as " the plug winding direction has an opacity of 70% or less ", and the requirement of (3) Has an opacity of 5% or more lower than that before the destruction of the capsule when the capsule contents liquid released by the capsule is adhered ".

Throughout this specification, opacity refers to the value measured in accordance with JIS P8138A (1976).

More specifically, it can be determined whether or not the plug winding target satisfies the requirement (1) as follows. In other words,

A lamination paper is formed by superimposing a plug pulling effect and a test paper, and opacity of the lamination paper is measured on the test paper side,

The capsule contents liquid is dropped on the plug winding side, the opacity of the laminated paper is measured on the test paper side,

The difference in opacity is obtained by subtracting the opacity after dropping the capsule contents liquid from the opacity before the drop of the contents in the capsule,

When the difference is 10% or less, the plug winding direction is evaluated to be impermeable to the capsule contents solution, and when the difference exceeds 10%, the plug winding direction is impermeable to the capsule contents solution (See Example 2 described later). Therefore, in the present invention, "having an impermeable property" includes not only having impermeability but also showing impermeability but having extremely low permeability (see Table 3 to be described later). The measurement of the opacity is also performed in accordance with JIS P8138A (1976). As used herein, the " test paper " is an opaque paper having a function as a filter paper capable of absorbing the liquid when the liquid passes through the plug winding up. For example, paper having a thickness of 33 to 53 mu m with an opacity of 80 or more For example, 37 white paper (Japan Paper Papyria Co., Ltd.).

More specifically, whether or not the laminated paper composed of the plug winding tip and the tip paper satisfies the requirement (2) can be determined as follows. That is, the lamination paper is formed by superimposing the plug winding tip and the tip paper, and the opacity of the laminated paper is measured on the tip paper side (see Example 3 described later). The measurement of the opacity is also performed in accordance with JIS P8138A (1976). In the present invention, the opacity measured in this manner (that is, the opacity before the capsule liquid is adhered) is 70% or less, preferably 5 to 70%, more preferably 10 to 40%, further preferably 15 To 40%. When the opacity exceeds 70%, it is difficult to visually recognize the perfume capsules through the plug winding effect and the tip paper.

More specifically, whether or not the laminated paper composed of the plug winding tip and the tip paper satisfies the requirement (3) can be determined as follows. In other words,

The lamination paper is formed by superimposing the plug winding tip and the tip paper, the opacity of the lamination paper is measured on the tip paper side,

The capsule contents liquid is dropped on the plug winding side, the opacity of the laminated paper is measured on the tip paper side,

The opacity of the capsule contents solution after dropping is subtracted from the opacity of the capsule contents solution before dropping to obtain the difference in opacity (see Example 3 described later). The measurement of the opacity is also performed in accordance with JIS P8138A (1976). In the present invention, the difference in opacity thus obtained is 5% or more, preferably 5 to 30%, and more preferably 10 to 30%. When the difference in opacity is less than 5%, it is difficult to recognize that the opacity of the laminated paper is not sufficiently lowered, and that the capsule contents liquid discharged by destruction of the capsules spread in the filter hollow portion.

With respect to the requirements of (2) and (3), the opacity of the laminated paper formed by superimposing the plug winding tip and the tip paper may be measured before the cigarette is manufactured, and after the cigarette is produced, The opaqueness of the laminated paper may be measured by cutting out the laminated paper in the state of the hollow portion. In the latter case, an adhesive is contained in the laminated paper. However, since a transparent adhesive (for example, an emulsion type system adhesive) is generally used for bonding the plug winding tip and the tip paper, the influence of the adhesive on the opacity is negligible have.

More specifically, the plug winding 22 can use paper having opacity of 5 to 40%, smoothness of 500 to 2500 sec, and ash content of 0 to 5%. Preferably, the plug winding paper 22 may be paper having an opacity of 20 to 40%, a smoothness of 500 to 2500 sec, and a 0 to 5% ash. More specifically, as the plug winding direction 22, glassine paper or parchment paper satisfying the above conditions can be used. Preferably, the plug winding target 22 can use a splash paper that satisfies the above conditions. When the opacity exceeds 30%, it is not preferable from the viewpoint of visual recognition of the perfume capsule. If the smoothness is less than 500 sec, it is not preferable from the viewpoint of the impermeability to the capsule contents liquid. In addition, if the ash content exceeds 5%, it is not preferable from the viewpoint of increasing the opacity. The plug pulling out 22 may be, for example, 40 to 80 占 퐉 thick.

The plug winding region 22 is formed by forming a specific shape region having water repellency or oil repellency on the inner surface (surface on the hollow portion side) of the spiral wound body 22, The specific shape may be treated so as to float. The water repellent region can be formed by applying paraffin, silicone, or the like, and the oil repellent region can be formed by applying wax, paraffin, carboxymethylcellulose, latex, or the like. These materials can be applied by coating on the plug winding using a printing technique. The specific shape may be a symbol; Shapes such as circle, triangle, square, star; A character such as an alphabet, or the like.

In the cigarettes of Figs. 1A and 1B, the perfume capsule 23 is housed in the hollow portion between the filter plugs. A single perfume capsule may be contained in each hollow portion, or a plurality of fragrance capsules (for example, two to ten pieces) may be accommodated.

The fragrance capsule is composed of a coating film 23a and a content liquid 23b containing fragrance. The coating film 23a may contain, for example, starch, dextrin, polysaccharide, agar, gellan gum, gelatin, various natural gelling agents, glycerin, etc., and may also contain flavors and coloring agents. It is preferable that the flavor capsule is colored so that it can be recognized by a smoker when it is wrapped around the flavor capsule even though it is surrounded by a plug winding having an opacity. It is preferable that a colorant such as blue No. 1 is contained in the film 23a Do. As the fragrance of the content liquid 23b, for example, menthol, plant essential oil and the like can be used. As a solvent for the content liquid 23b, a solvent suitable for a flavoring agent can be used, and a medium chain triglyceride (MCT) (specifically, tricapryl / capric glycerin), propylene glycol, water, ethanol Can be used. The content liquid may also contain other additives such as other solvent, coloring matter, emulsifying agent and thickening agent.

The production method of the flavor capsule is not particularly limited. For example, a flavor capsule having a seamless film can be produced by using a dropping method. In this method, by using the double nozzle to simultaneously discharge the inner liquid from the inner nozzle and the liquid coating material from the outer nozzle, the coating liquid can be enclosed without any seams. The flavor capsule may be, for example, 1.5 to 7.0 mm in diameter.

When preparing the cigarette of the present invention, a flavor to be contained in the cigarette is first determined, and a solvent suitable for dissolving the flavor is selected according to the type of the flavor, and the above-mentioned (1) to (3 ) Can be selected. For example, when menthol is contained in a cigarette, a medium-chain fatty acid triglyceride is selected as a solvent and a paper satisfying the requirements (1) to (3) described above for the solvent, for example, 40.0 (Japan Paper Papyria Co., Ltd., Glashin), Drift W34.9 (Oji Paper Co., Ltd .; Pachment Co., Ltd., Japan) (High transparency) Glazinc 40 (Japan Paper Papyria Co., Ltd .; Glashinji), etc. (see Tables 4 and 6).

In the cigarettes of Figs. 1A and 1B, the tip paper 30 is preferably impermeable to the contents. Further, the tip paper is preferably transparent. As such a tip paper, a transparent cellophane can be used.

The tip paper 30 is adhered with an adhesive so as to cover the entire plug winding paper 22 and a part of the tobacco wrapping paper 12. The adhesive is preferably colorless transparent so as not to affect the visibility level of the perfume capsule, and for example, an emulsion-based adhesive can be used. For example, the tip paper 30 may have a length (width) in the axial direction of the tobacco rod of 20 to 50 mm and a thickness of 10 to 100 m. Like the conventional filter-attached cigarette, a small hole (ventilation hole) for ventilation may be provided in the tip paper in a single row, a plurality of rows or irregularly arranged along the circumferential direction of the cigarette. The tip paper 30 may be coated in a region other than the hollow portion, for example, white paper.

The "filter plug 21a on each side" is composed of a filter material of Non-Wrap-Acetate (ATK2010-02) (does not include the location), its length L1 is 11 mm and its circumference is 24.1 mm . The " filter plug 21b on the suction port side " is composed of the filter material of Acetate tow (2.8Y35000) and the locus of P10000C, and the length L2 is 10 mm and the circumference is 24.1 mm. The length S of the hollow formed by these two filter plugs and the plug winding is 6 mm. The flavor capsule 23 contains a content liquid 23b containing a medium chain fatty acid triglyceride (tricapryl / capric glycerin), a flavoring (menthol and plant essential oil) and a coating film 23a based on a polysaccharide (starch) And the diameter D of the perfume capsule is 4.5 mm. The perfume capsules were prepared by mixing starch (20% by weight) as a coating material and a content liquid (80% by weight) by a dropping method. The total length Lf of the manufactured filter is 27 mm.

Two filter plugs and perfume capsules were wrapped with a plug winding 22 as shown in Fig. 2 using an FLR traction machine (ND-5RC, Sanjo Machinery Co., Ltd.).

3. Manufacture of cigarettes

Using the filter manufactured as described above, the cigarette shown in Fig. 3 was produced. The cigarette is composed of the "tobacco rod 10", the "filter 20" and the "tip paper 30".

"Tobacco Road" used the tobacco rod of Mild Seven, a company's manufacturing and selling brand. The tobacco rod has a length Lr of 57 mm and a circumference of 24.8 mm. The " filter " is as shown in Fig. 2, and its total length Lf is 27 mm. &Quot; Tip Paper " was obtained by using NatureFlex 23 mu (Innovia Co.) as the base film, and 10 mm of each side of the tip paper was printed on blank paper by TANNPAPIER GmbH and processed into a tip paper. The length Lt of the tip paper is 32 mm, and the lengths Lt1 and Lt2 of the white paper portion are 10 mm.

As the tip paste, an EVA-based emulsion was used. Cigarettes A and B were prepared from the filter A and the filter B using a cigarette hoisting machine (HAUNI Corp. ProtosM5). The cigarettes C to G were prepared from the filters C to G by hand rolling.

4. Evaluation results

The visibility (visibility level) of the perfume capsule was visually evaluated. The evaluation was conducted under a standard light source at 23 DEG C and a humidity of 50%.

(1) Two cigarettes A to G were prepared.

(2) We ran the capsule with radio pliers for one of two pieces.

(3) The cigarettes that had been crushed with the capsule were put on a desk and left for 5 minutes.

(4) The neglected cigarette was placed on a commercially available copy paper, and the visibility of the capsule was visually evaluated by scoring.

Scoring was performed based on the following table.

(5) We evaluated the cigarette before breaking it as well. The difference between the evaluation point and the evaluation point obtained in (4) was calculated as " change in visibility ".

(6) The evaluation is performed by the five evaluators, and the evaluation results by the naked eye are shown below.

2. Evaluation Method

As additive liquids, medium chain fatty acid triglycerides (MCT) (tricapryl / capric glycerin), propylene glycol (PG), and water were used.

The evaluation was conducted under a standard light source at 23 DEG C and a humidity of 50%.

(1) Before liquid loading

And the opacity (%) of the obtained laminated paper was measured on the tip paper side by the Hunter method (JIS P 8138A).

(2) After liquid dropping

On the plug winding side of the above-mentioned laminated paper, 70 mu l of liquid was dropped. After 2 minutes from the liquid drop, the liquid remaining on the surface of the plug winding was wiped off. Thereafter, the opacity (%) on the tip paper side was measured by the Hunter method (JIS P 8138A).

The difference between the opacity (%) after liquid dropping and the opacity (%) before liquid dropping was calculated as " amount of change in opacity ". The impermeability was evaluated based on the " amount of change in opacity " as shown in the following table.

When the liquid was water, it was dried over time and thus the opacity could not be measured, and the impermeability was instantaneously evaluated by the evaluation criteria of Table 3.

3. Evaluation results

&Quot; Amount of change in opacity " and " evaluation of impermeability " are shown below for various plug motions.

Normal paper 24, N250, NPWS, P10000C and P20000C show permeability to any liquid and are not suitable for use as a plug winding. NatureFlex 23μ, 50NFB, Driff W34.9, graphene and high transparency Glazin 40 were impermeable to any liquid. Glaucin 25.8 showed a slight permeability to the heavy chain triglyceride of medium chain fatty acid, but it is considered that there is no problem in the use as plug winding. Glycine 25.8 showed permeability to water and therefore water can not be used as a solvent for perfume capsules. Glaucin 40 was impermeable to any liquid other than water.

Example 3: Purpose Opaque  change

1. Evaluation Method

In this embodiment, the plug winding target used in Example 2 was superimposed on the transparent tip paper NatureFlex 23 mu, and the change in opacity due to the adherence of the liquid was evaluated. The same liquid as used in Example 2 was dropped and evaluated in the same manner as in Example 2. [

The difference between the opacity (%) after liquid dropping and the opacity (%) before liquid dropping was calculated as " amount of change in opacity ". The "amount of change in opacity" was evaluated in relation to "appearance (transparency)" as shown in the following table.

As shown in Table 5, when the amount of change in opacity is 5% or more, it is visually recognized that transparency has increased.

2. Evaluation results

The " amount of change in opacity " and " evaluation "

The opacity of plain paper 24, N250, NPWS, P10000C, and P20000C largely changed even after dropping a liquid. From the results of Example 2, however, permeability is shown for any liquid, not.

NatureFlex 23 占 does not show a change in opacity of 5% or more, and therefore, it is not suitable for plug winding.

50NFB is opaque. Therefore, when this paper is used, the position of the perfume capsule can not be recognized, and therefore, it is not suitable as a plug winding.

The drift W34.9 exhibited an opacity of 37.2% before dropping, and showed a change in opacity of 5% or more after dropping the liquid for any liquid, thereby visually recognizing the increase in transparency. In addition, drift W34.9 showed impermeability to any liquid (see the results of Example 2). From this fact, drift W34.9 is available as a plug-in effect.

The graphene does not show an amount of change of opacity of 5% or more, and therefore is not suitable as a plug winding direction.

Glaucine 25.8 exhibited an opacity of 20.9% before dropwise addition and showed a change in opacity of 5% or more after dropwise addition of heavy chain fatty acid triglyceride (MCT) and propylene glycol (PG), thereby visually recognizing the increase in transparency. Glaucin 25.8 also showed impermeability to medium chain fatty acid triglycerides (MCT) and propylene glycol (PG) (see results of Example 2). From this fact, Glaucin 25.8 can be used as a plug winding direction when these liquids are used as fragrance-containing liquids.

Glaucin 40 exhibited an opacity of 31.2% before dropwise addition and showed an amount of change of opacity of 5% or more after dropwise addition of heavy chain fatty acid triglyceride (MCT), propylene glycol (PG) and water, and visually recognized that the transparency was increased . Glaucin 40 also showed impermeability to medium chain fatty acid triglycerides (MCT), propylene glycol (PG) and water (see the results of Example 2). From this fact, Glaucin 40 can be used as a plug winding when these liquids are used as perfume-containing liquids.

The high transparency glaucin 40 exhibited an opacity of 16.2% before dropping and showed a change in opacity of 5% or more after dropping of the heavy chain fatty acid triglyceride (MCT), thereby visually recognizing the increase in transparency. Further, the highly transparent glazinc 40 showed impermeability to any liquid (see the result of Example 2). From this fact, the highly transparent glazinc 40 can be used as a plug winding effect.
