Definitions

  • the invention relates to a system for the self-production of cigarettes according to the preamble of claim 1, and to a method and a device for producing a cigarette using the system.
  • a relief for the self-rolling of cigarettes was apparently hoped for by the provision of a tobacco product according to NL-A-6 703 935, namely consisting of a tobacco portion adapted to the tobacco filling of a finished cigarette, the outer surface of which was formed from a wrapping of material completely consumable by smoking is, the wrapping is so permeable to air that the tobacco portion as such is not smokable like a cigarette.
  • a conventional cigarette paper sheet should be wrapped around this tobacco portion to produce a smokable cigarette and glued in a manner known per se. This type of self-rolling of cigarettes is not practicable, since it is almost impossible - even for experienced self-movers - to wrap the cigarette paper around the tobacco portion and keep it tight.
  • Self-stuffing of cigarettes is known as a fundamentally different way of making cigarettes.
  • a plug-in nozzle is provided for attaching and plugging in an empty cigarette tube.
  • the bale chamber is delimited by a piston-like tobacco ejection slide, by means of which the tobacco supply can be transferred from the bale chamber into the cigarette tube (see, for example, DE-A-2 833 681; DE-C-2 139 242; DE-C-2 064 641; AT-A-146 213; FR-A-427 582; US-A-638 904 or DE-A-3 135 700).
  • a half-shell-shaped spoon can be attached to the effective end of the ejection slide, which supports the transfer of the tobacco supply from the press chamber into the cigarette tube while maintaining its stability.
  • the known tobacco portions are intended exclusively for tobacco pipes and are suitable such that, in view of the lack of uniformity of the tobacco receiving space of pipes, the tobacco portions must be dimensioned smaller in cross section in order to then adapt them to the receiving space in cross section by finger pressure. Only then can such a "stuffed" pipe be smoked.
  • DE-A-143 462 in turn relates to a pre-portioned tobacco supply for pipes, the smoking material being brought into the shape of a cartridge in the moist or heated state, in which the tobacco layers lie approximately at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the cartridge, so that after drying respectively.
  • the cartridge cools down within the same air ducts, which are also perpendicular to the cartridge axis.
  • the smoker should have the smell and taste of a freshly stuffed pipe until the cartridge is completely exhausted, since the combustion gases can never pass through the unburned tobacco, but are laterally derived from the latter.
  • a tobacco cartridge designed in this way would be completely unsuitable for filling the extremely unstable cigarette paper tube. If the tobacco leaves fit tightly on the cigarette paper, the cigarette would not be pullable; with a less dense system there would be a risk that the tobacco leaves would fall out of the cigarette paper tube. Accordingly, the known portion of tobacco can at best be used to stopper a solid pipe bowl, which is always held vertically with the opening upwards when smoking.
  • a tobacco product for self-production of cigarettes by the consumer is proposed in both DE-U-8 326 921 and DE-U-8 309 186, which is characterized by such as such Non-smoky prefabricated product in the form of a prefabricated tobacco cartridge consisting of an open-ended strand casing with the diameter of the cigarette paper sleeve of the finished cigarette and a strand-like tobacco filling, each corresponding to a cigarette portion, which is provided by an associated piston, adapted to the inside diameter of the strand sleeve, from the strand casing is transferable into an empty cigarette paper tube.
  • This tobacco product is suitable for use in connection with conventional self-filling cigarette tubes as well as in connection with conventional self-rolling papers.
  • the consumer is provided with a precisely metered amount of tobacco, namely the amount of a conventional industrial consumer cigarette, in the form of a cigarette tobacco cartridge, the tobacco filling of which can be converted into a prefabricated cigarette tube of a commercially available type.
  • the tobacco cartridge has an envelope, namely a strand envelope, made of non-smokable material.
  • the strand casing represents an unnecessary auxiliary material which can only be used once.
  • further aids are required for transferring the pre-portioned tobacco supply from the strand casing into the cigarette paper sleeve, at least one ejection slide. The handling of the same without further aids for inserting the filled tobacco cartridge into the empty cigarette paper tube and holding the string envelope of the tobacco cartridge when transferring the tobacco supply should be difficult even for experienced in-house cigarette manufacturers prepare.
  • the present invention is based on the object of improving the latter proposal to the effect that the tobacco product only consists of constituents that can be consumed by smoking with the exception of a possible filter, and the self-manufacture of cigarettes which are readily comparable to those produced by manufacture from these constituents and a cigarette paper tube is also possible without aids such as ejection slides or the like.
  • the device specified in claim 9 serves to facilitate the introduction of the tobacco portion into a cigarette paper tube.
  • the invention is further characterized in that apparatus aids for the in-house production of cigarettes are not absolutely necessary and that in particular the industrially prefabricated preliminary products with the exception of the filter - if such a filter is provided or desired, is complete are smokable, d. H. consist of smokable materials.
  • the strand casings proposed according to patent claims 3 and 4 are also smoked in the assembled state. They are therefore no longer needed as disposable tools. It is also no longer necessary to transfer the tobacco supply from the strand casing into the cigarette paper casing, which definitely requires a certain skill, especially if suitable aids or devices are not available for this.
  • the effects of moisture on the tobacco supply no longer play a role in the invention when it is transferred to a prefabricated cigarette paper tube.
  • the tobacco supply according to the invention always retains its original shape. If in the known self-tamping systems the tobacco supply has become too dry due to storage, weather or climate, it cannot be compressed in a predetermined manner by transferring it from the strand casing into a prefabricated cigarette paper sleeve by means of an ejection slide, with the result that a so-called tobacco beard protrudes from the cigarette paper sleeve . On the other hand, if the tobacco supply is too moist, it is compressed too strongly by the ejection slide when it is transferred from the strand casing into the cigarette paper casing. The front end portion of the cigarette paper sleeve is then without tobacco. The goal of obtaining a cigarette corresponding to the industrially manufactured cigarette by in-house production has not been achieved.
  • the strand casing is formed by a porous and / or perforated, slotted or the like tobacco foil, which is also part of the tobacco supply.
  • the tobacco rod is made almost entirely of tobacco. The wrapping of the tobacco portion practically does not affect the taste. Because of the porosity and / or the perforations, slits or the like provided in the tobacco film serving as the casing, the tobacco rod as such is not smokable, although it consists entirely of material that can be consumed by smoking. After insertion into a cigarette paper tube, however, the tobacco rod can be smoked as a cigarette.
  • the effect of the porosity or perforations, slits or the like is lost due to the tightly fitting cigarette paper.
  • the use of a tobacco film as a casing is also highly advantageous in terms of production technology, since the tobacco rod according to the invention can be produced in the manner of a cigarette on conventional cigarette machines, and above all very precisely with respect to the circular cross-section adapted to the cigarette paper sleeve. Excellent diameter accuracy is achieved over the entire length of the tobacco rod, which is of the utmost importance for its accuracy of fit within the cigarette paper tube.
  • An envelope with maximum air permeability is preferably used. It only has to be ensured that the tobacco supply, which is in itself loose, is held in a dimensionally stable and dimensionally stable manner by the covering or strand casing. In extreme cases, the covering can therefore also be designed in the form of a net.
  • a filter piece of conventional type can be attached to an end face of the tobacco rod to form filter cigarettes.
  • a funnel-like sleeve is particularly suitable for facilitating insertion of the tobacco rod according to the invention into a prefabricated cigarette paper tube.
  • the tobacco rod can be designed to be somewhat tapered at least at one of its end sections. Then an insertion funnel is the described type even less required.
  • any aids for assembling a cigarette are in no case required.
  • a conical tapering of the tobacco rod from one end is also unnecessary.
  • the tobacco rod 10 consists of a strand casing 13 made of thin tobacco foil material, which is provided with perforations 14. According to FIG. 1, the perforations 14 extend over the entire length of the tobacco rod 10. The perforations 14 are preferably arranged approximately uniformly distributed over the length and the circumference of the tobacco rod 10.
  • a porous tobacco film material can also be used as the strand casing 13.
  • the strand casing 13 contains a strand-like tobacco filling 15 introduced by the manufacturer.
  • the tobacco filling 15 in the strand casing 13 is packed approximately as tightly as in an industrially manufactured cigarette.
  • the tobacco rod has a length that corresponds approximately to the length of the tobacco receiving space 16 of a commercially available cigarette paper tube 11.
  • the outer diameter of the tobacco rod is slightly, preferably about 1/20 - 3/10 mm smaller than the inner diameter of the cigarette paper tube 11, so that it can be inserted or inserted into the cigarette paper tube 11 without any problems.
  • the tobacco filling 15 corresponds in terms of quantity to the tight packing of the cigarette tube 11 desired for the finished cigarette, specifically - as explained - in accordance with a normal factory-made cigarette.
  • the cross section of the tobacco rod 10 is circular in shape to match the free cross section of the cigarette paper tube 11 over the entire length, so that it can be inserted into the cigarette paper tube without damaging the cigarette paper tube, with a tight fit against the inside of the cigarette paper tube.
  • porous and / or cigarette paper provided with perforations, slits or the like can be used. It is also conceivable to design the strand casing as a net or as an air-permeable film-like coating. It only has to be ensured that the strand casing consists of smokable material and is so permeable to air over the entire length that smoking the tobacco rod in the manner of a cigarette is not possible.
  • the insertion funnel 18 comprises a funnel section 19 and at its smaller end 20 a cylindrical sleeve section 21 onto which the cigarette paper sleeve 11 is pushed.
  • the length of the sleeve section 21 is about 8 to 12, preferably about 10 mm, so that the pushed-on cigarette paper sleeve 11 comfortably between two fingers, preferably index finger 22 and thumb 23, on the sleeve section 21 or insertion funnel 18 during the insertion of the tobacco rod 10 into the Empty cigarette paper tube 11 can be clamped or held.
  • the tobacco rod 10 is inserted into the cigarette paper tube 11 both in FIG. 1 and in FIG. 3 in the direction of the arrow "P".
  • the special feature of the insertion funnel are the knife-like projections 24, which are arranged on the inside of the cigarette or at the end of the cylindrical sleeve portion 21 facing away from the funnel section 19 and which slit the outer strand casing 13 of the prefabricated tobacco rod 10 through the insertion funnel 18 when it is inserted into the cigarette paper tube 11 that the tobacco supply 15 can expand radially outward within the tobacco receiving space of the cigarette paper tube 11, as a result of which it is held securely and snugly in the cigarette paper tube 11.
  • two diametrically arranged cutting knives 24 are provided. Basically, a single cutting knife is sufficient.
  • Preferably three are distributed approximately evenly over the circumference arranged separating knives are provided, which are each formed like a razor blade.
  • needle-like projections can also be used to slit or tear open the strand casing 13.
  • the separating device is also advantageous if the tobacco rod is held together by the tobacco fibers, which are inherently smokable binders, to form a dimensionally stable tobacco rod. A slight radial expansion of the tobacco rod within the cigarette paper tube is sufficient to ensure that it is securely held in the cigarette paper tube.
  • the outer lateral surface of the sleeve section 21 is preferably slightly tapered towards the free end.
  • the wall thickness of at least the cylindrical sleeve section 21 is minimal. It is approximately 0.15 to 0.3 mm.
  • the dimensional stability of the sleeve section 21 is ensured by the circular cross-sectional shape and the connection to the funnel section 19, which preferably has a somewhat larger wall thickness.
  • the insertion funnel 18 can be made of stainless steel sheet or plastic.
  • the inside transition between the cylindrical sleeve section 21 and the funnel section 19 (in the region of the smaller-diameter end 20 of the funnel section 19) is rounded off, so that the tobacco rod 10 can be easily inserted into the cigarette paper sleeve 11 through the insertion funnel 18.
  • an outer ring flange 25 is provided which serves as a stop for the cigarette paper sleeve 11 pushed over the sleeve section 21.
  • the system according to the invention is also, for. B. suitable for the in-house production of cigars or the like.
