  • the filter paper tape 11 is drawn off a supply drum 12 at uniform velocity by a plurality of pairs of feed rollers 14, l5, l6 and 17, the supply drum 12 being controlled by a band brake 13.
  • the tape 11 is also retained and guided in guides 18 and 19.
  • Tip covering pieces if employed, are adhesively attached to the filter paper tape 11 at distances equivalent to a cigarette length in a tip covering device 20 of known construction.
  • the filter paper tape 11 After leaving the tip covering device 20, the filter paper tape 11 passes through a printing mechanism 21 and through the guide 19 via the gluing station 22 to a feed unit 23 for filters 24.
  • the gluing station is adjusted so that an adhesive position for a filter 24 is provided precisely on that side of the filter paper tape 11 which is disposed opposite to a tip covering piece.
  • the filter paper tape 11 is then taken up by a moulding belt 25, and together therewith passes through a closing device 32 with a gluing mechanism 26 and a drying chamber 27 in which the flat filter paper tape 11 with the tip covering piece and the filter 24 is rolled to form a tubular filter sleeve 28'and is adhesively joined.
  • the individual cigarette filter sleeves 30 are cut off from the tubular filter sleeve 28 in a cutting device 29 and are supplied to a magazine through a grading device 31 which orientates the sleeves (see FIG. 9).
  • the band brake 13 is provided to ensure uniform drawoff of the filter paper tape 11 from'the supply drum 12.
  • the paid off filter paper tape 11 is decelerated by means of a brake band 33 and any overrun of the tape 11 is prevented by the said brake when the machine is stopped.
  • the brake force of the brake band 33 is defined by the pay-off velocity of the filter paper tape. Regulation is obtained by means of a pivotable compensating roller 34 which transmits the filter paper tape pull through gear wheels 35, a cord drive 36 and a brake lever 37 on to the brake band 33 which is accordingly released or tensioned.
  • the filter paper tape 11 also passes at constant velocity through the feed device 23 so that the filters 24 are delivered and adhesively fixed at uniform distances on the prepared adhesive positions.
  • the individual cut filters 24 of double length pass from a vibratory through conveyor 38 into a guide tube 39 which is constructed as a transparent plastics hose.
  • a guide tube 39 which is constructed as a transparent plastics hose.
  • the inlet position itself is constructed in the form of an ejector. If compressed air flows through the radially disposed air inlet ports 40, a vacuum will be produced in the zone of the inlet position 41 to result in accelerated feed of the filters 24. Excess air may escape from the ports 42 to atmosphere. The remaining compressed air conveys the filters 24 to the feed unit 23 where the filters, abutting axially against each other, bear upon a stop abutment surface 43 due to having air blown axially upon them.
  • the feed unit 23 substantially comprises of a wheel 44, having two drivers 45, offset by 180 relative to each other, disposed on its periphery.
  • the appropriate filter 24 which bears on the stop abutment surface 43 is pushed, by a tappet 46, in front of the aforementioned drivers 45 of the wheel 44 in which rotates constantly in accordance with the conveying speed of the filter paper tape 11.
  • the succeeding filter first bears upon the tappet 46 and is then moved in front of the stop abutment surface 43 after the tappetreturns into its upper starting position.
  • the periphery of the wheel 44 is also provided with a circumferential groove 47 into which a stripper 48 projects in the zone of the placing position. This ensures that the filters 24 are correctly delivered on the prepared adhesive position of the filter paper tape 11. Furthermore, the clear distance between the underside of the stripper 48 and the filter paper tape 11 is somewhat less than the filter diameter so that the filters 24,
  • a spring-biased, pivotable arm 50 of a thrusting unit extends upstream of the placing position into the path of motion of the filters 24 which are conveyed by the wheel 44; the thrusting unit ensures that the filter 24 beats flush on the driver 45 at the moment at which the filter is placed on the filter paper tape 11. To this end, the arm 50 brushes lightly over the passing filter 24 and as a result of friction draws said filter against the driver 45.
  • FIG. 2 also shows the gluing station 22 which operates in co-ordination with the conveying speed of the filter paper tape 11 and applies to the filter paper tape 11 the adhesive positions for the filters 24 brought in by the feeder unit 23, at uniform intervals precisely on the opposite side of the tip covering pieces.
  • a pivotable, spring-biased roller 51 functions as abutment.
  • the filter paper tape 11 with the filters 24 adhesively fixed thereon is taken up by the moulding belt 25 by bearing flat against said belt, and is fed to the closing device 32 (FIG. 3).
  • the moulding belt 25 is constructed as an endless belt and runs over a pulley 52 and a drum 53 as well as a belt tensioner 54.
  • the diameter of the drum 53 is adjustable so that the circumferential speed of the drum 53 and therefore the moulding belt speed may be adapted to the conveying speed of the filter paper tape 11. This also ensures that uniform pull is applied to the filter paper tape 11 and the formation of loops between the last pair of feed rollers 17 and the beginning of the moulding belt 25 is prevented.
  • the correct moulding belt speed is tested by measuring the cigarette filter sleeve length and the diameter of the drum 53 is appropriately altered in the event of any deviations of the said sleeve length.
  • the closing device 32 comprises a moulding part 55 with a duct 59 of circular cross section which is open at the top and a flared mouth-piece into which the moulding belt 25 runs together with the filter paper tape 11 and is initially rolled through approximately
  • the flared, funnel-shaped mouthpiece functions as a guide for the filter paper vtape and prevents the same being damaged.
  • moulding part 55 is adjoined by a presser strip 56 which is slightly longer than the length of one filter sleeve.
  • the edge of the presser strip 56 nearest to the filter paper tape 11 is inclined to converge in the conveying direction so that it is just able to engage the incoming filter 24 but thrusts progressively against the moulding belt 25 to ensure reliable entrainment of the filter paper tape 11 by the moulding belt 25.
  • the lower edge of the presser strip 56 is polished to a high lustre in order to minimise the effect of friction.
  • the gluing disc 58 is constructed in frusto-conical form and has a narrow, strip-shaped ring of glue only in the middle of its periphery.
  • the upper longitudinal edge of the filter paper tape 11 is pressed against the ring of glue by means of a pivotable, spring-biased thrust unit 60 (FIGS. 5 and 5a).
  • the diameter of the tubular filter sleeve 28 may thus be varied.
  • the inlet 66 of the seam shaper 61 is flared in order to ensure reliable folding of the upright longitudinal edge.
  • a seam smoother 67 is disposed downstream of the seam shaper 61 in order to achieve a smooth, fold-free and straight adhesive seam (FIGS. 7 and 7a).
  • the seam smoother 67 has a half shell 68 disposed in the conveying direction and adapted to support and guide the tubular filter sleeve 28 and the moulding belt 25.
  • a pivotable and vertically adjustable arm 69 formed of a leaf spring, is disposed at an acute angle relative to the tubular sleeve 28 above the half shell 68.
  • the front end of the arm 69 is bent into the shape of a scoop, is adapted to the round shape of the tubular sleeve 28 and bears with slight pressure on the adhesive seam of the tubular sleeve 28. Owing to the forward motion of the tube 28, the arm 69 brushes over the adhesive seam and presses it together while at the same time smoothing it.
  • the contact pressure of the arm 69 may be regulated with an adjusting screw 70.
  • the tubular filter sleeve 28 subsequently passes through a drying chamber 27 for the purpose of drying and curing the adhesive.
  • the drying chamber consists of two half shells 71 and 72, aligned with the conveying direction, the upper shell in the embodiment shown being vertically adjustable by means of screws 73 to provide adaptation to the diameter of the tubular sleeve. Furthermore, the upper half shell 71 has an extension in which a heating cartridge 90 is accommodated.
  • the temperature of the drying chamber 27 is manually adjustable and may be automatically regulated within a specific temperature range by means of a temperature regulator.
  • the tubular filter sleeve 28 is once again released by the moulding belt and passes to the cutting device (FIG. 9) in which the tubular filter sleeve 28 is cut into individual filter sleeves 30.
  • Double filters are used in the embodiment shown so that the cuts are made alternately on the one hand in the middle of the filter and on the other hand in the middle between two successive filters 24.
  • the individual and successively cut filter sleeves are orientated opposite to each other so that each second filter sleeve 30 must be turned through 180 in order to permit an equally orientated delivery of all filter sleeves. This will be described subsequently.
  • the cutting device has a pair of tubes formed by an inlet tube 74 and an exit tube 75 through which the tubular sleeve 28 passes.
  • the two tubes 74 and 75 are disposed at a slight distance from each other and a knife 76 is guided between the said tubes transversely to the tubular sleeve 28.
  • the knife 76 has a 6 crescent shape and one end is mounted on a pivoting pin 77, disposed parallel to the tubular sleeve 28; the knife 76 has a circular motion.
  • the two tubes 74 are mounted on a holder 78 which is associated with a crank drive 73.
  • the transmission 79 ensures that during the cutting operation the pair of tubes 74, 75 performs a reciprocating motion which is axial relative to the tubular sleeve 28, the forward motion being performed at the same velocity as the conveying speed of the tubular sleeve 28 while the return motion is performed at an accelerated speed.
  • the filter sleeves 30 are thus neatly cut from the tubular sleeve 28. Due to a twisting motion during the cutting operation, the knife 76 will follow the axial motion of the tube pair 74, 75. It is advantageous for the cutting quality is the distance between the tubes 74, 75 is not substantially longer than the thickness of the knife 76.
  • the pivot axis of the knife is inclined at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the tubular filter sleeve 28 so that the motion thereof in the tube is not completely stopped by virtue of the helical cutting operation thus formed.
  • the pair of tubes 74, 75 moves slightly with the knife cutting edge.
  • the cut filter sleeves 30 subsequently move into a tube 80 which may be pivoted about an axis into two limiting positions, and are ejected by the tubular sleeve 28, due to the follow-up motion thereof, on to two conveyor belts 81 and 82. Pivoting of the tube 80 is controlled by a disc cam 83 through a tappet 84 which is hinged to the tube 80, the tappet being kept in physical contact with the disc cam by means of a tension spring 85.
  • the filter sleeves 30 delivered on the conveyor belt 82 are orientated at an angle of relative to the filter sleeves 30 which are delivered on the conveyor belt 81.
  • the filter sleeves 30 of the conveyor belt 82 are conducted on to a turnover disc 88 and after being turned through 180 thereon, they are delivered adjacent to and in the same orientation as the other filter sleeves on a second delivery belt 89, disposed in parallel to the first delivery belt, to be supplied toa magazine.
