Description
- Wat is described is a method, a mechanism and an apparatus for a momentary compression of a filter material used to manufacture tobacco industry products.
- In the tobacco industry, cigarettes provided with filters are manufactured, whereas the filters can be made of one kind of material or can be composed of multiple materials having different physical and filtering characteristics. The filter material in a continuous form, for example acetate, is cut into rods and applied to the cigarettes. In addition, filters manufactured of several concentrically arranged filter material layers are known. Filters having several segments of different materials are more and more frequently used in the cigarettes manufactured in present times. Machines for manufacturing multi-segment filter rods of continuous multi-segment filter rods are known in the prior art. Such machines combine the segments delivered from multiple feeding devices, whereas the segments are formed by cutting filter rods transferred for example on a drum conveyor using a cutting head provided with rotary knives. Individual segments are combined, depending on the apparatus, next to one another on a drum conveyor or one after another on a linear conveyor in order to finally form a linearly moving continuous multi-segment rod being cut into individual multi-segment rods. At the further stages of the cigarette manufacturing process the multi-segment rods are cut into individual multi-segment filters applied to individual cigarettes.
- A very significant aspect of the production of filter rods of different known kinds is the quality of segment wrapping with a wrapper. The quality is determined by both the deformation of the wrapper in the region of an adhesive seam and the filling of the wrapper with the filter material.
- Members for compression in the form of immovable pressing bars which heat up during the operation and lead to material damage are known in the prior art. The U.S. Pat. No. 3,716,443 disclosed an apparatus for manufacturing filter rods of a continuous filter material wherein a member for forming an endless filter rod was used, whereas such member is cooled by means of compressed air. Due to the use of compressed air a thin layer reducing the friction between the filter material and the guiding members is formed.
- It would thus be helpful if an improved mechanism, apparatus and a method could be developed for compression of the filter material.
- The gist of the invention is a method of a momentary compression of the filter material used in the tobacco industry, wrapped into a wrapper glued with an adhesive delivered from an adhesive applying apparatus. A method is characterised in that before wrapping the filter material into a wrapper the filter material is compressed by exerting a force on the material by means of at least one rotary compressing member.
- A method according to the invention is characterised in that the filter material is gradually compressed by means of a set of multiple rotary compressing members acting on the material being compressed with a different force.
- A method according to the invention characterised in that the force exerted by successive rotary compressing members on the filter material is increasing.
- A method according to the invention characterised in that the force exerted on the filter material is directed in a vertical direction.
- A method according to the invention characterised in that the force exerted on the filter material is directed at an angle to the vertical direction.
- The gist of the invention is also a mechanism for a momentary compression of the filter material used in the tobacco industry, wrapped into a wrapper glued with an adhesive delivered from an adhesive applying apparatus, adapted to being placed on a filter rod manufacturing machine before the adhesive applying apparatus. The said mechanism is characterised in that it comprises at least one rotary compressing member for pressing the filter material linearly moving underneath it.
- Furthermore, a mechanism according to the invention is characterised in that it comprises two rotary compressing members.
- A mechanism according to the invention is characterised in that it comprises three rotary compressing members.
- A mechanism according to the invention is characterised in that the last rotary compressing member, counting in the direction of movement of the filter material, has a smaller working width than the preceding compressing members.
- A mechanism according to the invention is characterised in that it is adapted to the adjustment of position of the rotary compressing members in at least one axis, preferably in all axes.
- A mechanism according to the invention is characterised in that it is adapted to the adjustment of the angle between an axis of the linear movement of the filter material and a line of compression of the compressing mechanism, in particular the line determined by the centres of rotation of the rotary compressing members.
- A mechanism according to the invention is characterised in that the rotary compressing member is a compressing roller with a cylindrical working surface.
- A mechanism according to the invention is characterised in that the rotary compressing member is a compressing roller with a conical working surface.
- A mechanism according to the invention is characterised in that the rotary compressing member is a compressing roller with an oval working surface.
- Furthermore, the substance of the invention is an apparatus for manufacturing filter rods of a filter material used in the tobacco industry. An apparatus is characterised in that it comprises at least one compressing mechanism according to the invention.
- An advantage of the method and the apparatus according to the invention is an effective operation with a low-cost and simple embodiment of the solution according to the invention. The solution according to the invention is, in addition, free of drawbacks of solutions known in the prior art, i.e. it does not heat up during the operation, and it does not cause material damage either. The compressing members roll on the surface of the filter material differently from the solutions known in the prior art where the effect of sliding of the pressing bars on the filter material occurred.
- The invention is explained in a drawing in which:
-
FIG. 1 diagrammatically shows a fragment of a machine for manufacturing multi-segment rods, -
FIG. 2 shows a compressing mechanism in a front view, -
FIG. 3 shows a compressing mechanism in a top view, -
FIG. 4 shows an embodiment of a rotary compressing member, -
FIG. 5 shows another embodiment of a rotary compressing member, -
FIG. 6 shows another embodiment of a rotary compressing member, -
FIG. 7 shows a section of a continuous filter rod during material decompression, -
FIG. 8 shows a section of a continuous filter rod after material decompression, -
FIG. 9 shows an alternative embodiment of the compressing mechanism, -
FIG. 1 diagrammatically shows a fragment of a machine for manufacturing multi-segment rods. Adelivery unit 101 delivers filter segments S prepared in a known way onto aconveyor 102, whereas onto its surface awrapper 103 is placed. During the transfer of segments on theconveyor 102 thewrapper 103 is wrapped in a known way around the segments and glued, whereas the adhesive is delivered from anadhesive applying apparatus 104 and an adhesive seam is heated up by aheater 105. A multi-segment continuous rod CR formed in such a way is transferred further and is cut into filter rods FR by means of a knowncutting head 106 provided withknives 107. Typical members supporting and guiding the endless rod CR and the filter rods FR were omitted in the drawing. - An apparatus for a momentary compression of the filter material constitutes a part of a machine for manufacturing rods of the filter material. It comprises members for guiding the wrapper and the filter material, and a compressing mechanism 11 a fragment of which was shown in
FIG. 2 . Thecompressing mechanism 11 is situated above the moving filter material, for example in the form of segments S, whereas the wrapper into which the segments are wrapped was not shown. An example mechanism comprises three rotary compressingmembers 10 situated one after another, whereas in the embodiment shown the centres of thecompressing members 10 lying on the axes of rotation T of the compressing members are situated on oneline 12. Through the lowest positioned points, which press the material to the highest degree, acompression line 13 on the circumferential surfaces of therotary members 10 was drawn. For therotary members 10 with equal diameters thecompression line 13 will be parallel to aline 12 going through the centres of therotary members 10. Therotary members 10 can have different diameters, whereas the compression line defined by the lowest positioned points can be inclined relative to the axis SA of the filter material S at an angle α between 1° and 5°, preferably the inclination is between 2° and 3° depending on the filter material. An inclination of the compression line ensures that successive rotary compressingmembers 10 act on the filter material with an increased force. If different diameters of therotary members 10 are used, thecompression line 13 is a broken line. -
FIG. 3 shows acompressing mechanism 11 for a momentary compression of the filter material in a top view. Awrapper 14 into which the segments S are wrapped can be seen here, whereas its edges were marked with themarkings adhesive nozzle 17 of an adhesive applying apparatus, from which the adhesive is delivered onto thewrapper 14 on theedge 15, is shown in simplified representation. Threerotary compressing members 10 can be seen in thecompressing mechanism 11 shown, whereas the lastrotary compressing member 10A has a smaller width g2 than a width g1 of the preceding compressingmembers 10. Therotary compressing members body 18 by means ofbearings 19. The rotary compressing members are set in rotational motion by the filter material. A torque coming from the forces of friction between the filter material and the surface of compressing members acts on each of the compressing members. However, a solution is also possible wherein they are driven by a separate drive mechanically or electronically synchronised with the drive of the conveyor 102 (FIG. 1 ) so that no slide between the circumferential surface of therotary members 10 and the surface of the filter material S occurs. - The embodiments of rotary compressing members are described below. A
rotary compressing member 10′ rotating around the axis T shown inFIG. 4 has acircumferential surface 20 in the cylindrical form and during the operation of the mechanism exerts a force F on a continuous or segmental filter material S partly wrapped into thewrapper 14, whereas the force F is directed in a vertical direction V and causes horizontal depression of the filter material. Therotary compressing member 10″ rotating around the axis T shown inFIG. 5 has acircumferential surface 21 in the conical form and during the operation exerts a force F′ on the continuous or segmental filter material S partly wrapped into thewrapper 14, whereas the force F′ is directed at an angle β to the vertical direction V and causes inclined depression on the surface of the filter material. Preferably the angle β is between 5° and 30°. Conducted tests showed that even more preferably the angle β amounts between 15° and 20°. Arotary compressing member 10′″ rotating around the axis T shown inFIG. 6 has an ovalcircumferential surface 22 and during the operation exerts a force F″ on a continuous or segmental filter material S partly wrapped into thewrapper 14, whereas the force F″ is directed at an angle β to the vertical direction V and causes inclined concave depression of the filter material. - The position of the compressing mechanism can be selected according to the filter material and the manufacturer's requirements. The position of the compressing mechanism can be determined in a typical way in the directions of three axes X, Y and Z (
FIGS. 2 and 3 ). In addition, the angular position of the compressing mechanism can be determined so as to select the value of the angle α of the compression line of the mechanism relative to the axis of the filter material according to the kind of the filter material. - During the manufacture of filter rods FR, before gluing the
wrapper 14, the filter material S in the form of segments or in the continuous form is compressed by means of thecompressing mechanism 11 in order to reduce the cross-section of the filter material. The depression and the reduction of the cross-section caused by the compression makes it possible that wrapping of the wrapper in order to obtain a cylindrical sleeve around the filter material takes place without the need of a simultaneous compression of the wrapped material. The wrapper is formed in the cylindrical shape and is glued. A decompression takes place during the wrapping and it finally ends after forming a sleeve of the wrapper.FIG. 7 shows a section of an endless filter rod during the decompression of the filter material S; a certain space P not yet filled with the filter material exists within the endless rod section, whereas the wrapper has already been formed, and the adhesive seam G has already been made.FIG. 8 shows a section of an endless filter rod after the decompression of the filter material S. - A
compressing mechanism 11′ according to the invention can also be embodied using an intermediate pressing member 25 (FIG. 9 ) between therotary compressing members 10 and the filter material S, for example in the form of a strip or a tape. The working surface of the intermediate pressingmember 25 can be shaped in any way. The use of an intermediate pressing member does not influence the effectiveness of operation of the mechanism according to the invention. - An advantage of the method according to the invention is that the final decompression of the filter material takes place after forming and gluing the wrapper, which allows obtaining better filling of the wrapper.
