Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for producing a strand in the tobacco processing industry, comprising a strand content provision unit which is designed to provide a strand of material to a strand forming unit arranged downstream.
- the invention further relates to a method for producing a strand in the tobacco processing industry using a device in the tobacco processing industry, comprising a strand content provision unit with which a strand of material is provided to a strand forming unit arranged downstream.
- the invention relates to a rod-shaped article for the tobacco processing industry.
- Tobacco processing industry articles manufactured from a strand of the tobacco processing industry are well known. These are, for example, cigarettes, cigars, tobacco sticks, filters or filter segments. In addition to these classic rod-shaped items, those that do not require a combustion process during consumption are also considered items from the tobacco processing industry. These are, for example, so-called HNB items (HNB for “Heat-Not-Burn”), which are also referred to as THP items (THP for “Tobacco Heated Product”). These items include tobacco-containing material that is heated for consumption. The aroma and ingredients of the tobacco are provided together with an aerosol-forming substance in an air stream intended for consumption.
- HNB items HNB for “Heat-Not-Burn”
- THP items tobacco Heated Product
- the tobacco-containing material used is, for example, a film made of reconstituted tobacco material (Recon film), which is provided with a vapor-forming substance, for example glycerin or propylene glycol.
- the tobacco film can be produced using both the paper process and the slurry process.
- the aerosol-forming tobacco material is present, for example, as a gathered sheet or in the form of a large number of strips.
- a device is known with which a rod-shaped article can be produced in which aerosol-forming tobacco material is present in the form of a large number of strips.
- THP articles Just as with conventional rod-shaped articles in the tobacco processing industry, it is also desirable for THP articles to provide their tobacco material with additives.
- a device for producing a strand in the tobacco processing industry comprising a strand content provision unit which is set up to provide a strand of material to a strand forming unit arranged downstream, this device being developed in that the strand content provision unit comprises a web guide unit and a separating device, wherein the web guide unit is set up to hold a first tobacco material flat web, an additive flat web and a second tab.
- the separating device To assemble the baking material flat web into a common multi-layer flat web, in which the additive flat web is embedded between the first and the second tobacco material flat web, and to feed the multi-layer flat web to the separating device, the separating device being set up to separate the multi-layer flat web into a plurality of multi-layer longitudinal strips and to provide this plurality of multi-layer longitudinal strips as a strand of material for the strand forming unit.
- the device advantageously provides a strand of material which, in addition to tobacco material, also includes an additive.
- the strand of material includes a plurality of longitudinal strips, both made of tobacco material and additive.
- Devices in which parallel running material strands or parallel running material webs cut into strips are provided are more susceptible to failure than the device according to aspects of the invention. For a disruption to the overall process, it is sufficient if a disruption occurs in just one of the material strands or cut material webs, for example a strip break. Reducing the number of parallel processes to a single process already improves the reliability of the overall process.
- the additive flat sheet that Has additive and which will also be referred to below as additional material is less tensile or tear-resistant than the tobacco material.
- the flat web made of additional material is more susceptible to a potential strip tear than the tobacco material flat web itself.
- the first tobacco material flat sheet has a tensile strength Rf22.
- the second tobacco material flat sheet has a tensile strength Rf24. It is preferred that Rf26 ⁇ Rf24 and/or Rf26 ⁇ Rf22, in particular Rf26 ⁇ 0.5*Rf24 and/or Rf26 ⁇ 0.5*Rf22.
- Rf22 and/or Rf24 are greater than 15N with respect to a web width of 15mm. In particular, Rf26 is less than 5N with respect to a web width of 15mm.
- the arrangement of the additive flat web between the two tobacco material flat webs is also advantageous with regard to a splicing process of the additive flat web.
- a splicing process occurs when an outgoing additive sheet is connected to a new additive sheet at a splice point.
- the splice inevitably weakens the material of the additive flat sheet. Therefore, the risk of a strip breaking off or the entire strand breaking off in the area of the splice point is particularly high.
- a partial tear of the strips of the additive flat sheet in the area of the splice can be tolerated.
- the torn individual strips of the additive flat web are taken along in the sandwich structure by the tobacco material flat web located on both sides, for example above and below, or the strips made from these.
- the additive flat web is more adhesive, especially with respect to the separating device, than the tobacco material flat web. If the separating device comes into direct interaction with the additive flat sheet, this can lead to the separating device sticking. This is advantageously avoided because the additive flat web is embedded between the tobacco material flat webs. As a result, the additive sheet does not come into direct contact with the separator to the same extent as if the additive sheet itself were cut or, for example, in a double layer structure on the top or bottom of a tobacco material sheet. This also represents a significant process technology advantage.
- a further advantage of the device according to aspects of the invention which lies less on the process side and more on the product side, can be seen in the fact that the additive flat web is in contact with the first and second tobacco material flat web over a large area, ie on both flat sides. It is thus possible for the tobacco material and the additive present in the additive flat web to be heated and consumed together. The flavors and ingredients contained in the tobacco material, together with the additives, pass into the air stream intended for consumption, since the tobacco material and the additive are more or less always at the same temperature.
- the multi-layer structure or sandwich structure realized in the multi-layer flat web also ensures good contact between the additive and the tobacco material or the flat webs involved.
- the separation process carried out in the separating device often exerts slight pressure on the multi-layer structure, so that the tobacco material flat web and the additive flat web are at least slightly connected to one another.
- This connection between the tobacco material and the additive also ensures that the Additive is present homogeneously distributed (particularly when viewed in cross section) in the strand and thus also in the rod-shaped article made from the strand.
- the additive flat web and/or the additive and/or the additive layer and/or the additive longitudinal strip has glycerin and/or propylene glycol.
- the additive flat web and/or the additive layer has a proportion of glycerin and/or propylene glycol of at least 30%, preferably 50% or particularly preferably at least 60%, the proportion being the ratio of the mass of glycerin and/or propylene glycol to the dry mass of the Additive layer and / or the additive flat web and / or the additive longitudinal strip describes and is at least 0.3, preferably 0.5 or particularly preferably 0.6.
- the additive flat sheet is provided with an additive, for example a flavor or ingredient.
- an additive for example a flavor or ingredient.
- This is, for example, a flavor or menthol.
- propylene glycol or glycerin or a mixture of these two substances can be provided as an additive, for example to increase the development of steam.

- the first and second rollers are not in contact with one another in the effective area.
- the flat web is not cut along the dividing line by the interaction of two blades, but is torn in a defined manner by top stretch.
- no cutting process takes place.
- the targeted and defined upper stretching and subsequent tearing of the flat web results in an open structure at the breaking edges of the strips. Due to this open structure, the strips are particularly suitable for releasing additives, for example for releasing flavors and ingredients when heated.
- the separating device also has very little wear due to the lack of contact between the rollers.
- the device is developed in that the separating device is a disk knife cutting device which has a first and a second one which interacts with it Roller comprises, wherein the respective lateral surface of the first and second rollers in an axial direction of the respective roller have disc knives arranged alternately next to one another and grooves arranged between adjacent disc knives and in an effective area the disc knives of the first roller engage in the grooves of the second roller and the disc knives of the second roller engage in the grooves of the first roller, with a cutting edge of a disc knife of the first roller being in contact with a cutting edge of a disc knife of the second roller, so that the flat web can be or is separated into strips in the manner of a continuous scissor cut.

- web edge control for the additive flat web can be dispensed with.
- a web edge control is otherwise carried out in order to avoid the formation of extremely narrow stripes in the area of the edges when the flat web is separated into longitudinal strips. Since even if the positioning is not precise, the extremely narrow edge strips of the additive flat web that may occur are easily taken along by the strips of the first and second tobacco material flat webs above and below them, i.e. they are also conveyed in the transport process, the web edge control can be dispensed with. The fine edge strips are cut in the sandwich layer and are transported by the tobacco material. The lack of web edge control represents an advantageous simplification of the device.
