Definitions
- the present invention relates to a band for a smoking article, a filter for a smoking article, a smoking article, and a cartridge for a smoking article.
- TD total fineness (total denier). TD refers to the fineness (grams per 9000 m) of a tow assembly (band).
- FD denier per filament (filament denier). FD refers to the fineness (grams per 9000 m) of a single fiber (one fiber). FD is also referred to as denier per filament.
- Tow a plurality of filament assemblies discharged from a spinneret hole of a cabinet. An end and a yarn are each an aspect of the tow.
- Band which are assemblies of single fibers, discharged from each spinneret hole of a plurality of cabinets are bundled, and the TD is set to a predetermined numerical value.
- the bundled tow in which the TD is set to a predetermined numerical value is crimped.
- This crimped tow is a band. That is, the band has a TD and a number of crimps.
- cellulose acetate fibers are used as a material for a filter for a smoking article used in a combusted smoking article that is ignited and smoked, or a tip used in a cartridge of a heated smoking article that is heated and smoked (hereinafter, both the filter and the tip are also simply referred to as "filter”).
- the cellulose acetate fibers are spun by discharging spinning dope from a spinneret based on dry spinning, for example.
- a band is produced by crimping a plurality of cellulose acetate fibers. This band is opened and molded into a cylindrical shape, and winding paper is wound around the outer periphery. This produces a filter.
- titanium oxide is added as a matting agent or a whitening agent to a spinning dope for spinning cellulose acetate fibers, as disclosed in JP H08 500152 A , for example.
- a titanium compound is added to the spinning dope for the purpose of improving the spinnability of cellulose acetate fibers.
- JP 2019 015009 A proposes a cellulose acetate tow band composed of cellulose acetate fibers, wherein the total denier is set at a value in a range of 8000 or more and 44000 or less.
- the content of titanium oxide is set at a value in a range of 0 wt.% or more and 0.01 wt.% or less.
- a content of textile lubricant that is measured using a method for extracting diethyl ether of tow band is set at a value in a range of more than 5 mg and 65 mg or less per 1 m.
- JP 2020 188811 A discloses an electronic cigarette cartridge to be inserted into an electronic cigarette body having a heating element.
- Said cartridge comprises an aerosol-forming base material, a mouthpiece and a sheet positioned between the aerosol-forming base material and the mouthpiece and wound in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the cartridge.
- One measure for preventing indentation of the filter is to increase the amount of stuffing of the band in the filter, for example.
- the pressure drop (PD) of the filter increases. This reduces ease of sucking through the filter and taste through the filter.
- an object of the present invention is to improve the quality of a filter produced using cellulose acetate fibers not substantially containing titanium oxide, by preventing indentation and a reduction in hardness while preventing an increase in pressure drop.
- Equation 2 is described such that the crimp ratio I (%) of the band is derived from the relationship between FD and TD in consideration of the ranges of FD and TD with which indentation can be suppressed when the filter is produced using the band based on the result studied by the inventors of the present application.
- the crimp ratio I (%) of the band is set to a value in a predetermined range according to the relationship between FD and TD of the band. This suppresses excessive crimp in a band in which FD is relatively large and TD is relatively small, for example. This makes it possible to decrease shrinkage of the band after opening.
- the band can be hardly shrunk in the axial direction of the filter with respect to the winding paper.
- indentation of the filter can be prevented. Indentation of the filter can be prevented even without increasing the amount of stuffing of the band in the filter. This makes it possible to prevent pressure drop of the filter from increasing. It is also possible to prevent the appearance of the filter from degrading.
- FD may have a value in a range equal to or less than 30, and TD may have a value in a range from 10000 to 50000.
- FD the rigidity of the cellulose acetate fibers is improved. Therefore, by setting TD to the above value, when the band is stuffed in a cylindrical filter, for example, it is possible to increase the repulsive force that the band gives to the winding paper, while appropriately retaining the pressure drop of the filter. This makes it possible to make the band less slippery in the axial direction of the filter with respect to the winding paper. As a result, indentation can be further prevented.
- a number of crimps per 25.4 cm (10 inch) length of a surface of the band may be a value in a range from 250 to 350. This makes it possible to retain crimping of the band in a suitable state. Therefore, when a filter is produced using the band, it is possible to produce a filter in which indentation is prevented and pressure drop is appropriately set, at a high quality.
- a filter for a smoking article according to the present invention comprises: a filter material including any of the bands described above, the filter material being molded into a cylindrical shape; and winding paper wound around an outer periphery of the filter material, wherein indentation of the filter material from an end of the winding paper in an axial direction of the filter material has a value in a range equal to or less than 1 mm.
- a perimeter of the filter for a smoking article may have a value in a range from 15 mm to 18 mm, and TD may be a value in a range from 15000 to 20000.
- a perimeter of the filter for a smoking article may have a value in a range from 21 mm to less than 23 mm, and TD may be a value in a range from 25000 to 30000.
- a perimeter of the filter for a smoking article may have a value in a range from 23.5 mm to 25.5 mm, and TD may be a value in a range from 30000 to 40000.
- a smoking article according to the present invention comprises any of the filters for a smoking article described above, and a base member including tobacco leaf, the base member being molded into a cylindrical shape and disposed on one axial end side of the filter.
- a cartridge for a smoking article according to the present invention comprises a base member including tobacco leaf, a hollow member configured such that a constituent generated by heating the base member passes through the hollow member, a coolant that cools the constituent having passed through the hollow member, and a filter material that filters a part of the constituent having passed through the coolant, wherein at least any of the hollow member, the coolant, or the filter material includes the band described above.
- the present invention it is possible to improve the quality of a filter produced using cellulose acetate fibers not substantially containing titanium oxide, by preventing indentation and a reduction in hardness while preventing an increase in pressure drop.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a cellulose acetate (hereinafter, also referred to as "CA") band production apparatus 1.
- the CAband production apparatus 1 continuously spins CA fibers 61, which is a long fiber, by dry spinning. Using the CA fibers 61, the CAband production apparatus 1 produces a yarn 62, an end 63, and a CA band 64.
- the CA band 64 is a band for a smoking article.
- the CAband production apparatus 1 includes a mixing device 2, a filtering device 3, a spinning unit 4, a lubrication unit 5, godet rolls 6, a crimping apparatus 7, and a drying device 8.
- a spinning dope 60 in which cellulose acetate flakes made of, for example, cellulose diacetate are dissolved in an organic solvent at a predetermined concentration is used.
- This spinning dope 60 does not substantially contain titanium oxide.
- the titanium oxide concentration of the spinning dope 60 has a value in a range where the content of titanium oxide in each CA fiber 61 to be spun is from 0 wt.% to 0.01 wt.%.
- the spinning dope 60 is mixed using the mixing device 2, and then filtered by the filtering device 3.
- the spinning dope 60 having passed through the filtering device 3 is supplied to a spinneret 15 arranged on a cabinet 14 of the spinning unit 4.
- the spinning dope 60 is discharged from a plurality of spinneret holes 15a of the spinneret 15.
- the peripheral edge shape of the spinneret hole 15a is triangular as an example, but is not limited to this.
- the peripheral edge shape of the spinneret hole 15a may be circular as an example.
- the size of the spinneret hole 15a is appropriately set according to the FD of the CA fiber 61 after production.
- the spinning dope 60 discharged from each spinneret hole 15a comes into contact with hot air supplied into the cabinet 14.
- the spinning dope 60 is dried by volatilization of the organic solvent. Due to this, CA fibers 61 as a solid are formed.
- the plurality of CA fibers 61 having passed through one cabinet 14 are collected to form the yarn 62.
- the yarn 62 is wound by the godet rolls 6.
- the yarn 62 is then taken up by a predetermined winding device.
- a plurality of the yarns 62 are accumulated or layered. This causes the plurality of yarns 62 to be collected to form the end (tow) 63, which is a flat assembly of the yarns 62.
- the end 63 has a predetermined TD. The end 63 is conveyed and guided to the crimping apparatus 7.
- the crimping apparatus 7 includes a pair of nip rolls 16, 17 and a stuffing box 18.
- the end 63 is pressed into the stuffing box 18 after nip pressure is applied at nip points of the pair of nip rolls 16, 17. Due to this, the end 63 is crimped to produce the CAband 64.
- the CAband 64 having passed through the crimping apparatus 7 is dried and accumulated by the drying device 8. Thereafter, the CAband 64 is compressed and packed into a packing container 19 in the form of a bale.
- Equation 2 shows that the crimp ratio I (%) of the CA band 64 is set in relation to the FD and the TD of the CA band 64.
- the crimp ratio I (%) is set to a value that falls within an appropriate range in a case where the CA band 64 is used for a filter application while the FD is set to a relatively large value and the TD is set to a relatively small value by satisfying the relationship of Equation 2. That is, the CAband 64 is less likely to be excessively crimped. Due to this, the CAband 64 shrinks less due to crimping after opening. Therefore, when the filter is produced using the CA band 64, the CAband 64 shrinks less in the axial direction of the filter due to crimping even in a case where the amount of stuffing in the filter is not so large.
- the FD of the CA band 64 can be set to any value in a range where Equation 2 is satisfied.
- An example of the FD of the CAband 64 is a value in a range from 10 to 30.
- one of 9.9, 10, 11.8, 19.2, and 20 is an example of the lower limit value of the FD of the CAband 64.
- the TD of the CA band 64 can be set to any value in a range where Equation 2 is satisfied.
- An example of the TD of the CA band 64 is a value in a range from 10000 to 50000.
- one of 10000, 15000, 16800, 17000, 25000, 25700, and 30000 is an example of the lower limit value of the TD of the CA band 64.
- the crimp ratio I (%) is a value in a range from 8.6 to 30.3.
- the crimp ratio I (%) is a value in a range from 41.8 to 63.5.
- the crimp ratio I (%) is a value in a range from 32.6 to 54.3.
- the crimp ratio I (%) is a value in a range from 65.8 to 87.5.
- the number of crimps per 10 inch length of the surface is a value in a range from 250 to 350.
- the number of crimps mentioned here can be measured based on the measurement method described in JP H7-316975 A , for example. That is, a personal computer or an image processing device, for example, is used to convert a captured image of the illuminated surface of the CA band 64 into data with a light amount level of 256 gradations. Then, the number of crimps can be measured by counting, as crimps, peaks having a gray level difference of 10 or greater gradations among the data from which a peak waveform of noise shorter than a cycle of a primary crimp has been removed.
- the crimp ratio I (%) of the CA band 64 is set to a value in a predetermined range according to the relationship between the FD and the TD of the CAband 64. This suppresses excessive crimping in the CA band 64 in which the FD is relatively large and the TD is relatively small, for example. This makes it possible to decrease shrinkage of the CA band 64 after opening. Therefore, even if the CA fibers 61 do not substantially contain titanium oxide, when the filter is produced using the CA band 64, the CA band 64 is less likely to shrink in the axial direction of the filter with respect to the winding paper. As a result, indentation of the filter can be prevented. Indentation of the filter can be prevented even without increasing the amount of stuffing of the CA band 64 in the filter. This makes it possible to prevent an increase in pressure drop of the filter. It is also possible to prevent the appearance of the filter from degrading.
- the FD is a value in a range from 10 to 30 and the TD is a value in a range from 10000 to 50000.
- the rigidity of the CA fibers 61 is improved. Therefore, by setting the TD to the above value, when the CA band 64 is stuffed into a cylindrical filter, for example, it is possible to increase the repulsive force that the CAband 64 gives to the winding paper while appropriately retaining the pressure drop of the filter. This makes it possible to make the CA band 64 less slippery in the axial direction of the filter with respect to the winding paper. As a result, indentation can be further prevented.
- the number of crimps per 10 inch length of the surface is a value in a range from 250 to 350. This makes it possible to retain the crimp of the CAband 64 in a suitable state. Therefore, when a filter is produced using the CA band 64, it is possible to produce a filter in which indentation is prevented and pressure drop is appropriately set, at a high quality.

- the CAband 64 drawn up from inside the packing container 19 passes through the collection ring 21, and then is opened in the width direction by pressurized gas in the first opening unit 22. Thereafter, the CA band 64 is guided by the guide 23. Next, the CAband 64 is opened further in the width direction by pressurized gas in the second opening unit 24, and then sequentially inserted between the pre-tension roll pair 25, between the first opening roll pair 26, and between the second opening roll pair 27. Due to this, the CAband 64 is opened in a conveyance direction.
- the CA band 64 having passed between the second opening roll pair 27 is opened further in the width direction by pressurized gas in the third opening unit 28. Thereafter, a plasticizer is applied to the CAband 64 by the plasticizer application apparatus 29.

- the filter material 65 is conveyed by the garniture 43, and the winding paper 40 is wound and fixed around the outer periphery of the filter material 65.
- the cutting device 33 cuts the filter material 65 into a predetermined dimension. Thus, a plug (rod) 66 is produced. The plug 66 is further cut to produce a filter 67 that includes the filter material 65 including the CAband 64 and the winding paper 40 wound around the outer periphery of the filter material 65 is produced.
- the content of titanium oxide is set to a value in a range from 0 wt.% to 0.01 wt.%, and the crimp ratio I (%) calculated by Equation 1 satisfies the relationship of Equation 2.
- the filter 67 is prevented from indentation.
- the stuffing amount of the CA band 64 is appropriately set, and an appropriate amount of the CAband 64 is used for stuffing. Due to this, the filter 67 has an appropriate pressure drop.

- the tip 73 is disposed on the cartridge 52 on the side opposite to the base member 70. The tip 73 is put in the user's mouth when the smoking article 50 is in use.
- the tip 73 filters the aerosol having passed through the coolant 72.
- smoking comfort of a heated smoking article is preferably close to smoking comfort of, for example, a cigarette, which is a combusted smoking article. Therefore, the tip 73 includes the CA band 64 in which the plurality of CA fibers 61 are crimped, similar to a filter of a cigarette, which is a combusted smoking article.
- the dimension of the tip 73 in the insertion direction with respect to the insertion port 51a (hereinafter, referred to as "length dimension of the tip 73") can be appropriately set.
- the length dimension of the tip 73 is set to a value in a range of, for example, from 5 mm to 35 mm.
- One of 5 mm, 7 mm, or 10 mm is an example of the lower limit value of the length dimension of the tip 73, for example.
- One of 17 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, 28 mm, 30 mm, or 35 mm is an example of the upper limit value of the length dimension of the tip 73.
- the pressure drop of the tip 73 is proportional to the length dimension of the tip 73.
- the pressure drop of the tip 73 can be calculated, for example, by comparing the length dimension of the tip 73 with the length dimension of the filter material 65, which has a known pressure drop.
- the perimeter of the tip 73 can be set as appropriate, and is, as an example, a value in a range of equal to or greater than 15 mm.
- a value in a range from 16 mm to less than 17 mm is an example of the perimeter of the tip 73.
- a value in a range from 21 mm to less than 23 mm is an example of the perimeter of the tip 73.
- a value in a range from 23.5 mm to 25.5 mm is an example of the perimeter of the tip 73.
- the user When using the smoking article 50, the user inserts the cartridge 52 into the unit 51 from the insertion port 51a. Then, the operation unit 58 is operated to turn on the power supply of the unit 51.
- the control unit 56 controls a power supply circuit to heat the heating unit 57 with electric power from the power supply 54. When the heating unit 57 is heated to a predetermined temperature and a predetermined time elapses, the control unit 56 notifies the user that smoking is possible via the display unit 55.
- a gas component from the base member 70 generated by being heated by the heating unit 57 circulates through the hollow member 71. At least some of the gas component having passed through the hollow member 71 is cooled and aggregated when circulating through the gaps of the coolant 72. This generates an aerosol. The aerosol having passed through the coolant 72 is sucked by the user after passing through the tip 73.
- indentation of the tip 73 is prevented. This prevents the hardness of the tip 73 from being reduced due to indentation of the tip 73. This allows the user to experience good usability when holding the tip 73 in the mouth. Further, degradation of the appearance of the cartridge 52 due to the indentation of the tip 73 is prevented.
- an appropriate amount of the CAband 64 is used for stuffing. Therefore, the pressure drop of the tip 73 is set to a value that is not too high. This prevents the tip 73 from excessively filtering the aerosol. Therefore, the user can experience a good taste due to the cartridge 52.
- the stuffing amount of the CA band 64 is stable in the tip 73. Due to this, for example, when a capsule is disposed inside the tip 73, the position of the capsule in the tip 73 is less likely to change due to a variation in density of the CAband 64. Therefore, the capsule can be easily positioned in the tip 73.
- the tip 73 used in the heated smoking article 50 has a shorter length dimension than when used in a combusted smoking article. In this case, when the tip 73 has indentation, the proportion of the indentation in the length direction of the tip 73 increases. Therefore, a defect due to the indentation increases. In the present embodiment, such a defect due to indentation can be satisfactorily prevented.
