Abstract

A cigarette (10) comprises a filter (14) and a tobacco rod (12). The filter includes a capsule (16) having opposite end walls with flavored adsorbent particles in the enclosure of the capsule. The end walls are perforated so that mainstream tobacco smoke passes through the capsule during the smoking process to thereby modify the characteristics of the smoke. Overall the capsule enables more exact filling of adsorbent particles and more control of flavor per cigarette.

Description

향기나는 캡슐형 흡착필터{CAPSULED ADSORBENT FLAVORED FILTER} Aromatic capsule adsorption filter {CAPSULED ADSORBENT FLAVORED FILTER}

본 발명은 담배로드와 이에 인접한 필터를 구비하는 담배에 관한 것이며, 특히 향기나는 흡착제로 채워진 캡슐을 포함하는 필터에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a cigarette having a tobacco rod and a filter adjacent thereto, and more particularly to a filter comprising a capsule filled with a fragrant adsorbent.

필터가 있는 담배는 오래된 것으로, 흡착제를 포함한 필터 또한 잘 알려져있다. 그러나, 흡착제가 담배 필터구조에 사용될 때, 완전히 포장된 상태로 되어 흡착제 안과 주위에서 담배연기의 통과를 방지하거나 줄이는 것이 중요하다. 게다가 비록 향기가 담배연기에 더해지지만, 담배의 연장된 유효기간 동안 가능한 신선한 향을 유지하는 것이 중요하다. Cigarettes with filters are old, and filters containing adsorbents are also well known. However, when the adsorbent is used in the tobacco filter structure, it is important to be in a completely packaged state to prevent or reduce the passage of tobacco smoke in and around the adsorbent. In addition, although the scent is added to tobacco smoke, it is important to keep the fragrance as fresh as possible for the extended shelf life of the cigarette.

따라서, 본 발명의 목적 중 하나는 완전히 포장된 상태로 흡착제 입자를 수용하여 흡착제 입자와 그 근처로 담배연기의 흐름을 방지하는 담배필터를 제공하는 것이다.Accordingly, one of the objects of the present invention is to provide a tobacco filter that accommodates adsorbent particles in a completely packaged state to prevent the flow of tobacco smoke to and around the adsorbent particles.

본 발명의 다른 목적은 향기의 양이 정확하게 들어있는 향기나는 흡착제를 포함하는 담배필터를 제공하는 것이다.Another object of the present invention is to provide a tobacco filter comprising a scented adsorbent containing the amount of fragrance accurately.

본 발명의 또다른 목적은 향기나는 입자의 신선함을 유지하도록 캡슐안에 완전히 포장된 향기나는 흡착제 입자를 구비하는 담배필터를 제공하는 것이다. It is a further object of the present invention to provide a tobacco filter comprising scented adsorbent particles completely packaged in capsules to maintain the freshness of the scented particles.

본 발명에 따르면, 담배는 필터와 이에 인접한 담배로드를 구비한다. 상기 필터는 제1끝벽과, 이에 장착되는 주변 옆벽이 있는 캡슐을 포함한다. 구형의 흡착성 탄소입자는 캡슐의 구획부 내에 채워지고, 향미제가 입자들에 위치된다. 제2끝벽은 옆벽을 마무리하고, 다수의 구멍은 캡슐의 끝벽들에 위치된다. 담배가 태워지는 동안, 담배연기는 캡슐을 통해 관통하여서 담배연기의 특성이 변화된다.According to the invention, the cigarette comprises a filter and a tobacco rod adjacent thereto. The filter includes a capsule having a first end wall and a peripheral side wall mounted thereto. Spherical adsorbent carbon particles are filled in the compartments of the capsule and a flavourant is placed in the particles. The second end wall finishes the side wall and a number of holes are located in the end walls of the capsule. While cigarettes are being burned, the tobacco smoke penetrates through the capsule, changing the properties of the tobacco smoke.

본 발명의 한 실시예에서, 구형의 흡착성 탄소입자는 두개의 다른 크기로 조합된다. 또, 본 발명의 바람직한 실시예에서, 필터는 중앙공간에 캡슐이 있는 플러그-공간-플러그 형상을 가진다. 캡슐의 양끝에 있는 플러그는 각각 셀룰로우즈 아세테이트 토우를 구비한다.In one embodiment of the invention, the spherical adsorbent carbon particles are combined in two different sizes. Further, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the filter has a plug-space-plug shape with a capsule in the central space. The plugs at both ends of the capsule each have cellulose acetate tow.

상기 언급한 것에 추가적으로 본 발명에 따른 새로운 형태와 장점은, 첨부도면을 참조로 하여 아래의 상세한 설명을 당해분야의 숙련자들이 읽고 이해함으로써 보다 분명해질 것이다. 도면에서는, 유사한 부분에 유사한 참조부호를 부여한다.In addition to the above mentioned, new forms and advantages according to the present invention will become more apparent by reading and understanding the following detailed description by those skilled in the art with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawings, like reference numerals refer to like parts.

도1은 본 발명에 따른 캡슐형 흡착제와 향미제가 포함된 필터와 담배로드를 구비하는 담배의 측면도로서, 내부를 상세히 보이기 위해 필터의 일부가 절개되어 있다.1 is a side view of a cigarette having a filter rod including a capsule-type adsorbent and a flavourant and a tobacco rod according to the present invention, and a part of the filter is cut to show the inside in detail.

도2는 도1에 나타난 담배필터의 캡슐형 흡착제와 향미제의 사시도이다.Figure 2 is a perspective view of the capsule-type adsorbent and the flavoring agent of the tobacco filter shown in FIG.

도3은 도1과 도2에 나타난 캡슐형 흡착제와 향미제의 정면도이다.3 is a front view of the capsule-type adsorbent and the flavoring agent shown in FIGS.

도4는 본 발명에 따른, 캡슐을 마무리하기 전에 캡슐에 있는 흡착제에 향미제가 적용되는 캡슐형 흡착제의 정면도이다.4 is a front view of a capsule adsorbent wherein a flavourant is applied to the adsorbent in the capsule prior to finishing the capsule, according to the present invention.

특히 도면을 참조하면, 도1은 담배로드(12)와 이 담배로드에 인접하는 필터(14)를 구비하는 담배(10)를 나타낸다. 필터(14)는 플러그-공간-플러그 형태를 가지고 있고, 아래에서 더욱 자세히 나타난 바와 같이, 중앙공간은 향기나는 흡착제를 포함하는 캡슐(16)을 위한 구획부를 제공한다.In particular with reference to the drawings, FIG. 1 shows a cigarette 10 having a tobacco rod 12 and a filter 14 adjoining the tobacco rod. The filter 14 has a plug-space-plug form, and as shown in more detail below, the central space provides a compartment for the capsule 16 containing a fragrant adsorbent.

셀롤로오즈 아세테이트 토우로 된 플러그(18,20)는 각각 캡슐(16)의 양쪽 끝에 위치된다. 팁핑종이(22)는 필터(14) 주위를 감싸고, 필터를 담배로드에 결합한다. 구멍(24)은 필터를 통해 흐르는 담배연기를 희박하게 하는 공기의 유입을 위해 팁핑종이에 구비된다.Plugs 18 and 20 of cellulose acetate tow are respectively located at both ends of the capsule 16. The tipping paper 22 wraps around the filter 14 and couples the filter to the tobacco rod. Holes 24 are provided in the tipping paper for the ingress of air that dilutes the tobacco smoke flowing through the filter.

캡슐(16)은 둘러싸는 불침투성의 둘러싸는 옆벽(24)과 제1끝벽 및 제2끝벽(26,28)을 구비한다. 구형의 흡착성 탄소입자(30,32)는 캡슐의 구획부내에 완전히 채워져 있고, 향미제(34)는 탄소입자에 적용된다. 양쪽의 끝벽(26,28)은, 연기가 캡슐을 관통할 수 있게 하는 다수의 구멍(24)을 포함한다. The capsule 16 has a surrounding impermeable surrounding side wall 24 and first and second end walls 26, 28. Spherical adsorptive carbon particles 30, 32 are completely filled in the compartment of the capsule, and flavourant 34 is applied to the carbon particles. Both end walls 26 and 28 include a number of holes 24 that allow smoke to penetrate the capsule.

캡슐(16)은 처음에 둘러싸는 옆벽(24)과 이에 부착된 하나의 끝벽(26)을 형성함으로써 만들어진다. 각각 다른 크기를 가지는 탄소입자(28,30)가 캡슐안에 완전히 채워지고, 정량의 향미제(34)가 주입장치(38)에 의해 입자들에게 전달된다. 그후, 둘러싸는 옆벽(24)의 양쪽끝은 끝벽(28)에 의해 폐쇄되게 된다.The capsule 16 is made by forming an enclosing side wall 24 and one end wall 26 attached thereto. Carbon particles 28 and 30 each having a different size are completely filled in the capsule, and a quantitative flavor 34 is delivered to the particles by the injection device 38. Thereafter, both ends of the enclosing side wall 24 are closed by the end wall 28.

이 독특한 방법으로 구형의 흡착성 탄소입자(30,32)를 캡슐에 쌈으로써, 완전히 포장된 입자들을 갖춘 캡슐이 구비되고, 이렇게 완전히 포장된 상태는 입자의근처로 담배연기가 통과하는 것을 방지한다. 완전히 채워진 캡슐을 얻기 위해 진동 이 적용될 수 있다. 상기 연기는 흡착제 입자와 이에 가해진 향미제로부터 완전히 영향을 받게된다. 게다가, 캡슐에 싸인 흡착제 탄소입자(30,32)의 효과는 오랜 시간동안 유지되어서, 이런 방법으로 만들어진 담배 필터의 유효기간을 상당히 증가시킨다. 결국, 캡슐(16)은 흡착제 입자(30,32)의 정확한 채움을 가능하게 하고, 담배 당 향미제(34)를 더욱 제어하게 한다.By encapsulating the spherical adsorptive carbon particles 30,32 in this unique way, a capsule with fully packed particles is provided, and this fully packed state prevents tobacco smoke from passing near the particles. Vibration can be applied to obtain a fully filled capsule. The smoke is completely affected by the adsorbent particles and the flavourant added thereto. In addition, the effect of the encapsulated adsorbent carbon particles 30,32 is retained for a long time, significantly increasing the shelf life of tobacco filters made in this way. As a result, the capsule 16 enables accurate filling of the adsorbent particles 30, 32 and further controls the flavourant 34 per tobacco.

이상 본 발명에 의하면, 캡슐에 싸인 흡착제 입자의 효과는 오랜 시간동안 유지되어서, 담배 필터의 유효기간을 상당히 증가시킨다.According to the present invention, the effect of the adsorbent particles encapsulated is maintained for a long time, significantly increasing the shelf life of the tobacco filter.
