Aus dern Stand der Technik sind ein Verfahren zum Vereinigen von Rauchartikelkomponenten in Form von mit einem definierten Teilungsabstand auf einer Walze zugeführten, beleimten Verbindungsblättchen und einer auf einer Muldentrommel zugeführten Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe sowie eine Einrichtung zum Vereinigen von Rauchartikelkomponenten in Form von mit einem definierten Teilungsabstand auf einer Walze zugeführten, beleimten Verbindungsblättchen und einer auf einer Muldentrommel zugeführten Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe bekannt. Darüber hinaus sind Maschinen der tabakverarbeitenden Industrie, insbesondere Filteransetzmaschinen bekannt.The prior art discloses a method for uniting smoking article components in the form of glued connection leaflets fed on a roller at a defined pitch and a cigarette-mouthpiece group fed on a drum, and a device for combining smoking article components in the form of a defined one Division distance on a roller supplied, glued connection blades and a supplied on a drum trunk cigarette mouthpiece group known. In addition, machines of the tobacco processing industry, in particular Filteransetzmaschinen known.
Unter einem definierten Teilungsabstand ist im erfindungsgemäßen Sinn der durch die vorgegebene Länge der Verbindungsblättchen bestimmte Tellungsabstand zu verstehen.In the context of the invention, a defined pitch is to be understood as meaning the pitch determined by the predetermined length of the connecting blades.
Eine Einrichtung zum Verbinden von Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppen durch Umwickeln mit beleimten Verbindungsblättchen ist beispielsweise durch die
Verfahren und Vorrichtung der vorstehend bezeichneten Art dienen insbesondere zur Konfektionierung von auf einer Filteransetzmaschine queraxial geförderten Filterzigarette. Deren Leistung bezüglich der pro Zeiteinheit hergestellten und ausgestoßenen Artikel hat sich im Laufe der Zeit immer wieder sprunghaft erhöht bzw. mußte der gestiegenen Leistungsfähigkeit der vorgeschalteten Zigarettenstrangmaschine angepasst werden. Dabei erreicht die eingangs genannte Rolleinrichtung als Teilaggregat auf einer Filteransetzmaschine eine kritische Leistungsgrenze, deren Überschreitung zwangsläufig zu einer Qualitätsminderung bzw. erhöhtem Tabakausfall, Beschädigung, Verformung oder gar Zerstörung der hergestellten Zigaretten führen kann.Method and apparatus of the type described above are used in particular for packaging of a filter attachment transaxially promoted filter cigarette.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine hohe Produktqualität von Rauchartikein, auch bei höheren Produktionsleistungen der Zigarettenherstellung zu gewährleisten.The invention has for its object to ensure a high product quality of Rauchartikein, even at higher production rates of cigarette production.
Beim Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art wird bei der Übergabe das Verbindungsblättchen mit zwei freien Enden auf der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe angeordnet und in einem nachfolgenden Schritt durch Überrollen der Komponenten das Verbindungsblättchen um die Stoßstellen der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe herumgewickelt wird. Dies beruht auf dem Gedanken, dass die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe ihre Lage auf bzw. in der Muldentrommel nicht ändern soll, wobei in einem Zwischenschritt eine Teilumschlingung der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe durch Anlegen eines freien Endes des Verbindungsblättchens an die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe erfolgen soll. Dabei wird die freie Länge des Verbindungsblättchens verkürzt, so dass das Blättchenende von einer nachfolgenden Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe freikommt bzw. von dieser nicht eingeholt wird. Eine vollständige Verbindung der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe mit dem Verbindungsblättchen erfolgt anschließend durch Überrollen der Komponenten, so dass das Verbindungsblättchen vollständig die Stoßstellen der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe umschließt. Dadurch, dass das Verbindungsblättchen auf der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe ein vorauseilendes Ende aufweist, das nach der Übergabe mit der Zlgaretten-MundstücK-Gruppe verbunden wird, kann der Tallungsabstand zwischen zwei aufeinander folgenden teilverbundenen Komponenten verkürzt werden, da der Abstandsspalt zwischen dem hinteren freien Ende des Verbindungsblättchens und der nachfolgenden Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe vergrößert wird. Dieser Abstandsspalt kann anschließend verkürzt werden, so dass eine Filteransetzmaschine mit einer höheren Produktionsleistung betrieben werden kann.In the method of the type mentioned in the transfer, the connecting leaflet is arranged with two free ends on the cigarette-mouthpiece group and in a subsequent step by rolling the components, the connecting leaflet is wrapped around the joints of the cigarette-mouthpiece group. This is based on the idea that the cigarette-mouthpiece group should not change its position on or in the drum, wherein in an intermediate step, a partial wrap of the cigarette-mouthpiece group by applying a free end of the connecting leaflet to the cigarette mouthpiece Group should take place. The free length of the connecting leaflet is shortened, so that the leaflet end is released from a subsequent cigarette mouthpiece group or is not overtaken by this. A complete connection of the cigarette mouthpiece group with the compound leaflet is then carried out by rolling over of the components, so that the compound leaflets completely surrounds the joints of the cigarette mouthpiece group. The fact that the connecting leaflets on the cigarette-mouthpiece group has a leading end, which is connected to the Zlgaretten-MundstücK group after handover, the Tallungsabstand between two consecutive partially connected components can be shortened, since the distance gap between the rear free End of the connecting leaflet and the subsequent cigarette-mouthpiece group is increased. This gap can then be shortened so that a Filteransetzmaschine can be operated with a higher production capacity.
Das vorauseilende freie Ende des Verbindungsblättchens kann mit der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe verklebt bzw. teilweise verbunden werden, wenn das Verbindungsblättchen asymmetrisch auf der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe angeordnet wird. Hierbei erfolgt die Zuführung des Belagpapierblättchens mit einer glatten Zuführtrommel.The leading free end of the connection leaflet may be adhesively bonded to the cigarette mouthpiece assembly when the connection leaflet is asymmetrically disposed on the cigarette mouthpiece assembly. In this case, the supply of the tipping paper leaflet takes place with a smooth feed drum.
Eine sichere Teilumhüllung der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe wird dadurch erreicht, dass nach der Anordnung des Verbindungsblättchens auf der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe das Verbindungsblättchen und die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe durch Anlegen eines freien Endes des Verbindungsblättchens teilverbunden werden. Dies erfolgt in einem Verfahrensschritt nach Anordnung des Verbindungsblättchens auf der Zigaretten-Filter-Gruppe. Vorzugsweise wird das in Förderrichtung der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe vordere freie Ende des Verbindungsblättchens an die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe angelegt.A secure partial enclosure of the cigarette and mouthpiece assembly is achieved by partially joining the connection leaflet and the cigarette and mouthpiece assembly by placing a free end of the connection leaflet after the assembly of the leaflet on the cigarette and mouthpiece assembly. This is done in a process step after the arrangement of the compound leaflet on the cigarette filter group. Preferably, the front in the conveying direction of the cigarette mouthpiece group free end of the connecting leaflet is applied to the cigarette-mouthpiece group.
Bevorzugterweise wird das freie Ende des Verbindungsblättchens mittels eines Anlegeorgans an die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe angelegt.Preferably, the free end of the connecting leaflet is applied by means of a contact member to the cigarette-mouthpiece group.
Außerdem ist es von Vorteil, wenn der Teilungsabstand der teilverbundenen Komponenten verringert wird. Nach Zusammenfügen der teilverbundenen Komponenten und der Tellumhüllung ist der Abstand zwischen dem nachellenden freien Ende des Verbindungsblättchens und der nachfolgenden, ebenfalls teilumhüllten Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe größer als bei Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppen, bei denen das Blättchen an einer Stelle gemäß dem Stand der Technik angeheftet wird. Bei der Verkürzung des Teilungsabstands, beispielsweise durch bewegliche Ärmchen einer Muldentrommel, können die der Muldentrommel nachgeordneten Fördermittel ebenfalls mit einer kleineren Teilung betrieben werden, so dass insgesamt die Produktivität einer Maschine bei einer hohen Produktqualltät gestelgert wird. Durch die Teilungsveränderung bzw. - Verringerung können somit mehr Zigaretten pro Minute in einer Maschine transportiert bzw. hergestellt werden. Gleichzeitig werden die Rauchartikelkomponenten schonend behandelt.In addition, it is advantageous if the pitch of the partially connected components is reduced. After joining the partially bonded components and the Tellumhüllung the distance between the lashing free end of the connection leaflets and the subsequent, also partially wrapped cigarette mouthpiece group is greater than cigarette-mouthpiece groups in which the leaflet at a position according to the prior art is attached. In shortening the pitch, for example, by moving arms of a drum trunk, the conveyor drum downstream conveyor can also be operated with a smaller pitch, so that overall the productivity of a machine is gestelgert at a high Produktqualltät. As a result of the division change or reduction, more cigarettes per minute can thus be transported or produced in one machine. At the same time, the smoking article components are treated gently.
Besonders vorteilhaft Ist es, wenn der Teilungsabstand der Aufnahmen der Muldentrommel nach der Teilverbindung der Komponenten verringert wird. Die Verringerung des Teilungsabstandes beruht auf dem Gedanken, dass durch das Anlegen des vorauseilenden freien Endes des Verbindungsblättchens an die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe der Abstandsspalt zwischen dem nacheilenden freien Ende und der nachfolgenden, ebenfalls teilumhüllten Gruppe, vergrößert wird. Durch den größeren Abstandsspalt ist es möglich, den Teilungsabstand auf den nachfolgenden Einrichtungen bzw. Fördertrommeln zu verkürzen, so dass eine Filteransetzmaschine mit einem höheren Durchsatz an hergestellten Zigaretten betrieben wird. Durch die Verkürzung des Abstands der teileingewickelten Gegenstände kann nachfolgend die Übergabe der miteinander tellverbundenen Rauchartikelkomponenten auf eine Übernahmetrommel mit einer geringereren Teilung erfolgen.It is particularly advantageous if the pitch of the receptacles of the well drum is reduced after the partial connection of the components. The reduction of the pitch is based on the idea that by applying the leading free end of the connecting leaflet to the cigarette mouthpiece group, the distance gap between the trailing free end and the subsequent, also partially enveloped group is increased. Due to the larger clearance gap, it is possible to shorten the pitch on the subsequent devices or conveyor drums, so that a Filteransetzmaschine is operated at a higher throughput of manufactured cigarettes. By shortening the spacing of the partially wound objects, the transfer of the mutually connected smoking article components to a transfer drum with a smaller pitch can subsequently take place.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung des Verfahrens werden die teilverbundenen Komponenten nach der Teilverbindung an eine Trommel, insbesondere mit einer verringerten Teilung der Muldentrommel entsprechenden Teilung, übergeben. Hierdurch kann beispielsweise ein Filteransetzer nach der Übernahme der Komponenten aus einer Strangeinheit mit einer kleineren Teilung betrieben werden.According to an advantageous embodiment of the method, the partially connected components after the partial connection to a drum, in particular with a reduced pitch of the drum drum corresponding division passed. As a result, for example, a Filteransetzer be operated after the acquisition of the components of a Strangeinheit with a smaller pitch.
Um die Rauchartikelkomponenten sicher zusammenzuführen, ist vorgesehen, dass die Verbindungsblättchen und die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppen mit dem gleichen Teilungsabstand zusammengeführt werden.To safely assemble the smoking article components, it is contemplated that the bonding leaflets and cigarette and mouthpiece groups will be merged at the same pitch.
Wenn der Tellungsabstand zwischen den teilverbundenen Komponenten verändert wird, ist es notwendig, dass nach Übergabe der teilverbundenen Komponenten der Teilungsabstand der Aufnahmen der Muldentrommel vergrößert wird. Die Anpassung des verringerten Teilungsabstands auf die ursprüngliche Teilung gewährleistet einen zuverlässigen Betrieb des Verfahrens bzw. einer Vorrichtung.When the pitch between the partially connected components is changed, it is necessary that, after transferring the partially connected components, the pitch of the troughs of the troughs be increased. The adaptation of the reduced pitch to the original pitch ensures reliable operation of the method or apparatus.
Eine sichere Klebeverbindung zwischen den Rauchartikelkomponenten wird dadurch gewährleistet, dass nach der Übergabe der tellverbundenen Komponenten an die Trommel eine Rollung ausgeführt wird.A secure adhesive bond between the smoking article components is ensured by rolling after the transfer of the tell associated components to the drum.
Insbesondere ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Endrollung In Form einer Mehrfach-Umrollung der Komponenten ausgeführt wird.In particular, it is advantageous if the final rolling is carried out in the form of a multiple rewinding of the components.
Ferner wird Ist Einrichtung der eingangs genannten Art dadurch weitergebildet, dass die Einrichtung zur Anordnung des Verbindungsblättchens mit zwei freien Enden auf der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe ausgebildet ist.Furthermore, the device of the type mentioned above is further developed in that the device for arranging the connecting leaflet has two free ends on the cigarette mouthpiece group is trained.
Um die Zlgaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe mit einer Tellumhüllung des freien vorauseilenden Endes mit dem Verbindungsblättchen zu versehen, ist ein Mittel zur Teilverbindung der Komponenten durch Anlegen eines freien Endes des Verbindungsblättchens, insbesondere des in Förderrichtung vorderen, freien Endes, an die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe vorgesehen. Durch das asymmetrische Anordnen des Verbindungsblättchens auf der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe wird das freie, vorauseilende Stück des Verbindungsblättchens mit der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe angedrückt und verbunden. Der hintere, freie Teil des Verbindungsblättchens bildet eine Art Fähnchen.In order to provide the Zlgaretten mouthpiece group with a Tellumhüllung the free leading end with the connection leaflet, a means for partial connection of the components by applying a free end of the connecting leaflet, in particular the front in the conveying direction, free end, to the cigarette mouthpiece Group provided. By asymmetrically arranging the compound leaflet on the cigarette mouthpiece group, the free, leading piece of the leaflet is pressed and connected to the cigarette mouthpiece group. The back, free part of the connecting leaflet forms a kind of flag.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist vorgesehen, dass das Mittel zur Teilverbindung der Komponenten zwischen der Walze und einer Übernahmetrommel, bezogen auf die Förderrichtung der Muldentrommel, angeordnet ist.According to an advantageous development, it is provided that the means for partial connection of the components between the roller and a transfer drum, with respect to the conveying direction of the hollow drum, is arranged.
Insbesondere ist das Mittel zur Teilverbindung als Rotationskörper und/oder Anlegeorgan ausgebildet.In particular, the means for partial connection is formed as a rotational body and / or Anlegeorgan.
Das freie Ende des Verbindungsblättchens wird ohne Faltenbildung an die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe angelegt, wenn das Mittel zur Teilverbindung wenigstens ein Anlegemittel, vorzugsweise einen Vorsprung, aufweist.The free end of the connecting leaflet is applied without wrinkling to the cigarette and mouthpiece group, when the means for partial connection at least one application means, preferably a projection has.
Bevorzugterweise weisen die Anlegemittel den gleichen Teilungsabstand der Aufnahmen der Muldentrommel bei Anordnung des Verbindungsblättchens auf.Preferably, the application means on the same pitch of the recordings of the drum tubule in the arrangement of the connecting sheet on.
Von Vorteil ist es ferner, wenn die Aufnahmen der Muldentrommel bezüglich des Teilungsabstands veränderbar sind. Dadurch können die teilverbundenen Komponenten an eine Übernahmetrommel mit einer kleineren Teilung übergeben werden.It is also advantageous if the recordings of the hollow drum are variable with respect to the pitch. As a result, the partially connected components can be transferred to a transfer drum with a smaller pitch.
Vorteilhafterweise ist wenigstens eine Rollstation zum Herumwickeln des Verbindungsblättchens um die Stoßstellen der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe vorgesehen. Die Rollstation kann durch z.B. einen Rollklotz, wie in DT-PS 16 32 193 gezeigt, oder alternativ durch einen mittels Bändern ausgebildeten Rollkanal, wie in
Ferner ist eine Maschine der tabakverarbeitenden Industrie, Insbesondere Filteransetzmaschine, mit einer erfindungsgemäßen Einrichtung, wie sie voranstehend beschrieben ist, ausgebildet.Furthermore, a machine of the tobacco processing industry, in particular filter attachment machine, with a device according to the invention, as described above, is formed.
Hierdurch wird bei einer angestrebten und erzielten höheren Durchsatzleistung und damit Produktionsleistung der Filterzigarettenlinien eine gleichbleibende bzw. u.U. sogar verminderte Artikelbeanspruchung während des Herstellungsprozesses erreicht. Darüber hinaus kann eine Geschwindigkeitsreduzierung und eine daraus resultierende Verminderung des Lärms erreicht werden, so dass insgesamt der Wirkungsgrad einer Filteransetzmaschine gesteigert wird.As a result, with a desired and achieved higher throughput and thus production capacity of the filter cigarette lines a constant or u.U. even reduced article stress achieved during the manufacturing process. In addition, a speed reduction and a consequent reduction of the noise can be achieved, so that overall the efficiency of a filter attachment machine is increased.

Die Trommelmulden 8 nehmen jeweils eine Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe 9 auf. Die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppen 9 werden mittels Unterdruck, der an den Saugbohrungen 11 anliegt, auf der Fördertrommel 6 gehalten.The
Die Verbindungsblättchen 3 und die Trommelmulden 8 weisen bei der Übergabe des Verbindungsblättchens 3 an die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppen 9 den gleichen Teilungsabstand auf.The connecting
Beim synchronen Drehen der Saugwalze 2 und der Muldentrommel 6 werden die Verbindungsblättchen 3 und die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe 9 aufeinander zu bewegt und zusammengeführt. Bei der Zusammenführung eines Verbindungsblättchens 3 mit einer Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe 9 wird das Verbindungsblättchen 3 asymmetrisch mit einem vorderen freien Ende 4 und einem hinteren freien Ende 5 an die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe 9 angeheftet. Nachfolgend werden die angehefteten Verbindungsblättchen 3 mit der jeweiligen Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe 9 von der Saugwalze 2 wegbewegt in Richtung auf eine Übergabetrommel 18. Die Kombination aus Verbindungsblättchen 3 und Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe 9 wird dabei entlang einer Blättchenführung 24 bewegt. Die Blättchenführung 24 verhindert ein Ablösen des Blättchens 3 von der Gruppe 9.When the
Nachfolgend werden die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe 9 mit dem Verbindungsblättchen 3 entlang der Blättchenführung 24 einem Rollstern 25 zugeführt, der als Rotationskörper auf der Außenseite sternförmig angeordnete Vorsprünge 27 aufweist. Der Teilungsabstand der Vorsprünge 27 des Rollsterns 25 entspricht dem Teilungsabstand der Trommelmulden 8 an der Saugwalze 2 bzw. dem Teilungsabstand der Haltestücke 28 der Saugwalze 2. Um eine Teilumhüllung der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe 9 mit dem vorauseilenden Ende 4 des Verbindungsblättchens 3 auszuführen, berührt der Vorsprung 27 das vordere Ende 4 des Verbindungsblättchens 3 und legt somit das vordere Ende 4 an die Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe an. Die Rotationsbewegung des Rollsterns 25 ist synchronisiert mit der Rotationsbewegung der Muldentrommel 6. Das hintere, freie Ende 5 des Verbindungsblättchens 3 ändert bei der Teilumhüllung nicht seine relative Lage zur Zlgaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe 9.Subsequently, the cigarette-
Nach der Teilumhüllung bzw. Teilverbindung der Komponenten 3, 9 wird der Teilungsabstand zwischen den Trommelaufnahmen 8 verkürzt, so dass die Trommelaufnahmen 8 bei der Abgabe der teilverbundenen Rauchartikelkomponenten 3, 9 an der Rolltrommel 18 einen verkürzten (Teilungs-)Abstand aufweisen. Nach Abgabe der teilverbundenen Komponenten 3, 9 an die Rolltrommel 18 wird der Abstand zwischen den Trommelaufnahmen 8 wieder vergrößert, so dass der Teilungsabstand der Aufnahmen 8 an der Saugwalze 2 wieder dem Tellungsabstand der Verbindungsblättchen 3 entspricht.After Teilumhüllung or partial connection of the
Die Rolltrommel 18 übernimmt die teilumhüllte Kombination aus Verbindungsblättchen 3 und Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppe 9 in Pfeilrichtung 19 zu einer (hier nicht dargestellten) Rollstation, an welcher z.B. zwischen einem Rollklotz und dem Außenumfang der Rolltrommel 18 ein Rollkanal gebildet wird. Die Rollfläche des Rollklotzes ist erheblich länger als die Umfangsfläche der Zigaretten-Mundstück-Gruppen 9, so dass diese mehrfach umrollt und mit dem Verbindungsblättchen 3 verbunden werden. Alternativ kann die Rollung anstelle des Rollklotzes mittels von Bändern, wie es beispielsweise in
