Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for producing filter cigarettes from (double-length) Sections of a tobacco rod - tobacco rod - by cutting the tobacco rod, the tobacco stick halves - partial sticks - moved apart, into the gap (double length) Filter piece inserted, this with both partial sticks using covering paper to one Connected cigarette unit and then cut this in the area of the filter piece is used to form two filter cigarettes, the tobacco sticks being the cigarette units and the filter cigarettes each on rotatable drums with troughs on Are circumferentially transportable and the troughs have holes that connect to a vacuum source can be connected.
  • the device is part of a cigarette manufacturing machine, namely a filter attachment machine for the production of filter cigarettes.
  • the object underlying the invention is to design the drum in this way and to control that the manufacture of filter cigarettes is facilitated or at higher Performance performed and, moreover, a review of the correct training of the (finished) filter cigarettes is possible.
  • the sliding segments practically form the shell of the main drum. Most important task the sliding segments is the moving apart and pushing together of partial sticks or filter cigarettes.
  • a special feature of the invention is that the drum or main drum between the mutually associated or axially adjacent sliding segments has a fixed, immovable intermediate segment, which with Troughs are provided which run in continuation of the troughs of adjacent sliding segments, such that the troughs arranged in the intermediate segment in the axial direction form a continuation of the troughs of the segments.
  • the circumferential intermediate segment is an annular supporting part of the main drum with diverse tasks, in particular in the area of the intermediate segment Filter pieces positioned.
  • the troughs provided with suction holes are used to check the finished filter cigarettes low vacuum to generate a low holding force.
  • the one with higher or normal suction air to the suction holes in the segment troughs a higher holding power on the cigarettes.
  • the device shown is part of a cigarette manufacturing machine as a filter attachment.
  • the Device consists of a central drum, namely a main drum 10 and these associated secondary drums.
  • Split tobacco sticks 11 are fed to the device. Previous aggregates have the tobacco sticks 11 separated from a continuous tobacco rod and divided in the middle, so that two partial floors 12, 13 are formed. This unity will by an endless conveyor, namely by a transfer drum 14 of the main drum 10 fed.
  • the transfer drum 14 is designed as a trough drum, namely with a plurality of troughs arranged along the circumference for receiving one tobacco stick each 11.
  • the transfer drum 14 is mounted so that it with the troughs to the Main drum 10 or is brought up to the circumference.
  • the main drum 10 has depressions for receiving the tobacco sticks 11.
  • the main drum 10 is along the circumference with a plurality of separately in axially parallel Movable carriers for the tobacco sticks 11 and the resulting Products. It is according to the shape of the Main drum 10 curved or arched segments, namely sliding segments 16, 17th These fittings adjoin each other in the circumferential direction and form as a whole a continuous jacket of the main drum 10.
  • the hollows of the main drum 10, namely segment troughs 18, are arranged in the region of these sliding segments 16, 17, in such a way that a regular division is created with equal circumferential distances of the segment troughs 18 from one another.
  • the dimensions are selected such that each sliding segment 16, 17 has five segment troughs 18.
  • segment troughs 18 is on the edge a sliding segment 16, 17 arranged.
  • segment troughs 18 it is advantageous to use the segment troughs 18 to be arranged symmetrically on each sliding segment 16, 17 so that the edge Segment recesses 18 from the two edges of the sliding segments 16, 17 the same Distance.
  • the sliding segments 16, 17 can be moved in the axis-parallel direction, namely on Support members or support rods 19. Two of these support rods 19 are a sliding segment 16, 17 assigned. The ends of the support rods 19 are on the one hand in the middle Transverse plane of the main drum 10 and on the other hand outside on a support frame 20th attached.
  • the sliding segments 16, 17 are displaced in a suitable manner, in particular with the aid of control cams arranged inside the main drum 10 with tracer rollers running in these, which are connected to the sliding segment 16, 17 Arm 21 can be attached.
  • the parallel troughs formed in the sliding segments 16, 17 18 each serve to hold a (divided) tobacco stick 11.
  • the segment troughs 18 of the Adjacent sliding segments 16, 17 are supported coaxially and each take a partial floor 12, 13.
  • a special feature is that between the sliding segments 16 on the one hand and 17 on the other extending, fixed support member. It is a rotating, thus ring or disk-shaped intermediate segment 22. This is also on the outside open troughs, namely intermediate troughs 23, which are each in Extend or supplement the segment troughs 18, so that at the intermediate segment 22 adjacent sliding segments 16, 17 (Fig. 2, below) continuous Troughs arise for the reception of tobacco sticks 11 or partial sticks 12, 13. Das Intermediate segment 22 extends along the entire circumference of main drum 10. The support rods 19 are connected to the intermediate segment 22 on both sides.
  • the segment troughs 18 are just like the intermediate troughs 23 of the intermediate segment 22 provided with holes 35, 36 in the area of plant areas for the tobacco sticks 11 open and that to a vacuum source - exceptionally alternatively to one Compressed air source. In the segment troughs 18 and in the intermediate troughs 23 suction air is accordingly generated to the tobacco sticks 11 or the following to keep generated products in the troughs.
  • the tobacco sticks 11 After being taken over by the main drum 10 in the area of the transfer drum 14 the tobacco sticks 11 along a portion of the circumference of the main drum 10 transported.
  • the partial sticks 12, 13 are moved apart.
  • the sliding segments 16, 17 are moved outwards in the direction on the supporting frames 20.
  • the partial floors 12, 13 also leave the intermediate segment 22.
  • the individual movement phases are in radial section in FIGS. 3, 4 and 5 the main drum 10, the end positions of which are moved apart Sliding segments 16, 17 and the gap thus created between the partial floors 12, 13 depends on the length of a filter piece 25 to be inserted into a gap.
  • the filter pieces 25 have twice the length of a filter 26 of a filter cigarette 15.
  • the partial sticks 12, 13 are moved at such a distance from one another in the area of the filter drum 24 (FIG. 5) that each have a filter piece 25 in one between two mutually assigned partial blocks 12, 13 can be introduced, namely coaxially to these partial floors 12, 13. It is a special feature that the filter pieces 25 in the area of Intermediate segments 22 are deposited, namely in the intermediate troughs 23.
  • Cigarette unit 34 is driven by another drum conveyor, namely a return drum 28 - with troughs along the circumference - to the main drum 10 brought back.
  • the relevant cigarette units 34 - symbolically in the top left in FIG. 1 shown - are replaced in the troughs formed on the circumference of the main drum 10.
  • the filter pieces 25 of the cigarette units are in the middle of the intermediate segment 22.
  • a separating member namely a disc-shaped cutting knife 29.
  • This is stationary adjacent to the circumference the main drum 10 rotatably mounted.
  • the separating knife 29 cuts through the filter piece 25 (including covering paper 27) in the middle, so that two separations in the axial direction adjacent filter cigarettes 15 arise.
  • the intermediate segment 22 acts as a support member for the filter pieces 25 during the separating cut.
  • the intermediate segment 22 is for a clean cut with a central, all-round provided narrow groove 30 into which the cutting knife 29 in execution of the separating cut can occur (Fig. 7).
  • the finished filter cigarettes 15 are made by continued rotation of the main drum 10 fed to a discharge conveyor, namely a discharge drum provided with troughs 31. This leads the filter cigarettes 15 to further processing. In doing so the filter cigarettes 15 moved apart after the cut, in two stages up to a maximum distance (Fig. 8 or Fig. 6, below). This distance is required because a number of the cigarettes 15 subsequently turned and with the cigarettes of the another row is united.
  • the filter cigarettes 15 are correct Training checked, namely with regard to a sufficiently stable connection between sub-floors 12, 13 and filter 26. For this purpose, opposite tensile force is applied to the filter 26 on the one hand and the sub-floor 12, 13 exercised on the other.
  • the filter 26 in the area of the intermediate segment 22 a holding force exerted - by suction of the bores 36. That of the intermediate segment 22 moving sliding segments 16, 17 also exert a holding force or Suction through the holes 35 on the partial sticks 12, 13, so that the area the connection between the filter 26 and the substock 12, 13 is subjected to a tensile load.
  • A is preferably in the area of the intermediate troughs 23 of the intermediate segment 22 generates less suction or holding power, so that with properly designed filter cigarettes 15 these can be subtracted from the intermediate segment 22.
  • the filters 26 are held on the intermediate segment (FIG. 8, below).
  • the cigarettes or partial sticks 12, 13 which are defective as a result of the check are in the area the discharge drum 31 or elsewhere.
  • the individual filters 26 are moved past the removal drum 31 by the intermediate segment 22 and released in the lower area of the main drum 10 and from a collecting container 32 caught.
  • the Intermediate troughs 23 are scanned by a sensor 33 (light barrier). If in one Between the trough 23 a filter 26 is detected, air control takes place in such a way that the intermediate troughs 23 are briefly applied compressed air to eject the filter 26.
  • the control of the main drum 10 with respect to the feed is symbolic of air to the holes 35 of the sliding segments 16, 17 and the holes 36 of the intermediate troughs 23 are shown.
  • the area of the main drum 10 is in segments divided with different hatching. These correspond to column 37 the symbol representation in Fig. 10 reproduced. Symbols are shown in two rows, a free circular area 38 is the symbol for switched off air.
  • the full area blackened circular area 39 means maximum suction air, the partially blackened Circular area 40 means that a reduced suction force is present in this area the relevant holes.
  • the square 41 is the symbol for compressed air.
  • the Symbols 42 assigned to individual areas mean the area of the intermediate segment 22 and the symbol 43 a sliding segment 16, 17. This shows, for example, that in the area of a segment 44 compressed air at the bores 36 of the intermediate segment 22 prevails. In the area of a segment 45, all troughs become full Suction force applied, namely during the cut.
