  • the assembly formed by the strip 80 of plastic material and by the continuous strip 86 of metallic material which acts as a support layer is supplied to a welding device 88 comprising two welding plates 89.
  • the two welding plates 89 are internally provided with cutting members to achieve, during the execution of the welding, both a transverse cut and a longitudinal cut so as to separate the single blister packs 1.
  • the single blister packs 1 are then fed to a further cutting device 90 provided with incising members to obtain the two pre-cut lines 4*, 4** parallel one to the other.
  • the blister pack 1 exiting from the cutting device 90 are fed to a belt conveyor 91 which receives an orderly mass of blister packs 1 (in particular three rows of blister packs arranged next to each other) ; along the belt conveyor 91 a folding station (not illustrated) is provided, in which the end portion of each blister pack 1 is folded along the pre-cut line 4** and overturned by 180°.
  • the packaging machine 22 comprises a transfer unit 92 interposed between the belt conveyor 91 and a further continuous belt conveyor 93 arranged orthogonally to the belt conveyor 91.

  • the packaging machine 22 comprises a folding wheel 97 which is rotating at a predetermined pitch about a respective horizontal rotation axis for receiving in succession the blanks 98 of a casing made of cardboard which are fed by a feeding line.
  • the blanks 98 are partially folded around the spindles of the folding wheel 97 until obtaining tubular wrappers 99 that are subsequently transferred inside the pockets 100 of a wrapping wheel 101 in correspondence to a transfer station.
  • the wrapping wheel 101 is mounted to rotate at a predetermined pitch about a respective horizontal rotation axis and comprises a plurality of peripheral pockets 100, each of which at first receives a blank 98 partially folded into a tubular wrapping 99 and subsequently a blister pack 1 which is inserted into a tubular wrapping 99.
  • the wrapping wheel 101 completes the folding of the blank 98 around the respective blister pack 1.
  • each group can have three rows of ten seats 23 arranged essentially in a line so that each group comprises thirty seats 23 simultaneously subjected to subsequent processes.
  • the manufacturing machine 11 is provided with a number (for example, equal to three) of filling units 14 arranged in correspondence to the filling station FS for feeding a quantity of powdered tobacco inside each empty casing 5 and a number (for example, equal to three) of the feeding units 16 (or a number of stores 58) arranged in correspondence to the second station FRS to insert from above a portion 8 of filtering material inside each casing 5.
  • the plant 10 for the production of blister packs 1 described above has numerous advantages.

Abstract

On décrit une machine (11) à fabriquer des cartouches (3) pour cigarettes électroniques (2), qui comprend un boîtier (5) contenant une quantité de tabac en poudre au-dessus de laquelle est disposée une partie (8) d'un matériau filtrant. La machine de fabrication (11) est équipée: d'une unité de remplissage (14) pour introduire par le haut une certaine quantité de poudre de tabac à l'intérieur de chaque boîtier (5) vide; et d'une unité d'alimentation (16) pour insérer par le haut une partie (8) d'un matériau filtrant dans chaque boîtier (5), ladite unité d'alimentation étant munie d'un panneau courbé (57) qui reçoit des tiges de matériau filtrant divisées en parties (8) de longueur désirée dans un axe horizontal, et les libère dans un magasin (58) divisé en un certain nombre de canaux (59). Chacun desdits canaux (59) comprend une pile de parties (8) du matériau filtrant agencées l'une au-dessus de l'autre dans un axe vertical. L'unité d'alimentation (16) comprend en outre un guide inférieur (64) associé au magasin (58) et coopérant avec un bras (66) mobile dans une direction horizontale pour insérer par le haut une partie (8) du matériau filtrant dans chaque boîtier (5).
