Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for checking the quality of rod-shaped, cylindrical objects, preferably cigarettes, which are fed from a funnel-shaped storage container to a plurality of parallel shafts, with each shaft being assigned at least one test device and a downstream ejection device for the axial ejection of a defective object.
  • the cigarettes are fed to the hopper of a cigarette packing machine either continuously via conveyor belt systems or in batches by means of so-called trays.
  • this funnel which also serves as an intermediate store, a plurality of parallel and essentially vertical shafts are formed, into which the cigarettes enter from above and with the help of which the cigarettes are separated.
  • the cigarettes emerging simultaneously from the lower end of the shafts are combined into one layer.
  • Several layers of this type are guided one above the other and in this way form a so-called cigarette block, which is then packaged into a cigarette packet.
  • the number of shafts belonging together essentially corresponds to the number of cigarettes forming a layer of the cigarette block.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a device of the type described above for testing rod-shaped, cylindrical objects, preferably cigarettes, which allows reliable testing with little design and control effort, also in view of the high working speed, which, like the ejection defective objects take place before further processing, in particular the formation of cigarette blocks, so that only the actually defective objects are sorted out and a loss of packaging material is avoided.
  • the substantially vertical shafts have a shaft width that is only slightly larger than the diameter of the rod-shaped objects, and at least in the lower part with a zigzag shape with at least one bend are formed that below the shafts a with a number of shafts corresponding to the number of recesses provided for each rod-shaped object slider is arranged, which is displaceable transversely to the shafts by a path corresponding at least to the shaft width that a fixed one below the slider Carrier is arranged, the support rods are below the shafts, and which is formed between the support rods, each with a recess for a rod-shaped object, that below the carrier, another slide with the first slide corresponding training and movement Security is arranged and that each recess in the carrier is assigned an ejection device which can be actuated by the result of the test device assigned to the shaft above the carrier.
  • those in the funnel-shaped storage container are separated Cigarettes by entering the shafts in each shaft, an inspection of the cigarettes for complete filling with tobacco or for the presence of a filter.
  • the zigzag-shaped course of the essentially vertical shafts had previously ensured that crooked cigarettes, cigarettes with an incorrectly attached filter were eliminated inadmissibly flattened cigarettes. Such defective cigarettes jam in the zigzag-shaped shaft so that they do not even get to the test device.
  • the zigzag-shaped course of the shafts also prevents the cigarettes from jamming, ie being able to stand vertically, when they fall down in the shaft from their horizontal target position.
  • test devices are each arranged in the area of the lowest rod-shaped objects lying in the shaft.
  • a flat additional slide with openings corresponding to the diameter of the rod-shaped objects is arranged, which can be shifted slightly below the shafts, the one left free by the shifted additional slide
  • the shaft width of the shafts is slightly smaller than the diameter of the rod-shaped objects.
  • the additional slide can be displaceable at the same time as the first slide, so that it clamps the objects lying above the first slide. As a result, the tested object is held in place and thus protected from damage by the first slide, which is also moving, but covers a larger displacement path.
  • the additional slide can also be displaceable shortly before the first slide is displaced and prevent rod-shaped objects from falling into the recesses of the slide at the beginning of its displacement movement. Damage to the cigarettes when entering the first slide is avoided if, after jamming of a crooked cigarette in the shaft, for example, and after removal of this cigarette, the cigarettes above fall down, so that there is a risk that the falling cigarette will reach the first slide just then if it is moved so that the cigarette is crushed. Because the additional slide is moved shortly before the first slide is moved, the falling cigarettes are caught, preventing falling through into the recess of the first slide.
  • the slight displacement of the additional slide also prevents the falling cigarettes from being crushed between the additional slide and the shaft wall if the cigarettes fall at the wrong time, namely when the additional slide is moved becomes. In this case, the falling cigarette is only clamped between the slightly shifted additional slide and the shaft wall, without the cigarette being damaged.
  • Moving the additional slide shortly before moving the first slide also has the effect that the cigarette lying above the first slide is protected from damage by the moving first slide when the sequence is correct. This corresponds to the simultaneous shifting of the additional slide with the first slide.
  • the additional slide when a defective object is jammed in a shaft and after the shaft has been drained below the jammed object, the additional slide can be moved fully below the shaft and the further supply of objects from the shaft blocked.
  • This proves to be advantageous if a defective object is jammed in the shaft and is then removed by hand or by machine.
  • the risk that the objects slipping in the shaft are pinched at an unfavorable point in time either by the additional slide or by the first slide, namely when the sliding objects are then in the path of movement of the additional slide or of the first slide when they close.
  • the fact that the additional slide blocks the blocked shaft in this case due to the further development of the invention can prevent the objects from slipping in.
  • the additional slide can consist of a number of individual additional slides which corresponds to the number of slides and which actuates individually. Are 1 bar.
  • several individual additional slides are combined to form a plate-shaped group with openings, preferably groups with four individual additional slides, in which the individual additional slides belonging to a group are common, but the groups are independent of one another can be operated.
  • the control effort compared to the individual additional slides is considerably reduced without impairing the functioning.
  • the combination of four individual slide valves into one group is sufficient for practical use.
  • the shifting of the additional slide can be triggered by the test device, which blocks the shaft by the additional slide in the absence of an object. After eliminating the fault, the closed auxiliary slide is pulled back so that the normal procedure can be continued.
  • fixed storage shafts are arranged below the cutouts of the carrier, the fill level of which is monitored by a light barrier.
  • the cigarettes are withdrawn from these storage shafts to form the cigarette blocks.
  • These storage shafts are also designed according to the invention with a zigzag shape in order to avoid canting when the cigarettes fall down.
  • the device for testing rod-shaped, cylindrical objects is shown using the exemplary embodiment of a funnel-shaped storage container 1 of a cigarette packing machine.
  • the device is equally suitable for other rod-shaped and cylindrical objects, such as cigarillos or rod-shaped filters.
  • a plurality of approximately vertical shafts 3 are formed at the lower end of the storage container 1.
  • Each shaft 3 has a shaft width which is only slightly larger than the diameter of the cigarettes Z, and a zigzag shape with at least one bend, so that the cigarettes Z can only fall horizontally in the shafts 3.
  • a flat additional slide 4 is arranged below the shafts 3 and has a number of openings 4a corresponding to the number of shafts 3, each of which is larger than the diameter of the cigarettes Z.
  • the openings 4a are located below the shafts 3 which are open at the bottom.
  • the additional slide 4 can be moved slightly in the horizontal direction by a drive 5, as indicated by the double arrow in FIG. 1.
  • This first slide 6 has a number of recesses 6a corresponding to the number of shafts 3 for one cigarette Z.
  • the slide 6 is displaced by a path corresponding at least to the shaft width, as can be seen from a comparison of FIGS. 2 and 4.
  • the cigarettes Z located in the recesses 6a each lie on a support rod 8a of a carrier 8 arranged in a stationary manner under the first slider 6.
  • This carrier 8 is also between the support rods 8a lying below the shafts 3, each with a recess 8b designed for a cigarette Z.
  • a second slide 9 is arranged below the support 8, which is designed and displaceable like the first slide 6 and consequently has recesses 9a.
  • Fixed storage shafts 10 are arranged directly below the second slide 9. These storage shafts 10 are each laterally offset from the shafts 3. These storage wells 10 also have a zigzag shape and their fill level is monitored by a light barrier 11.
  • the cigarettes Z get from the storage container 1 into the individual shafts 3, with rotary or vibrating pins 12 arranged above the shaft walls ensuring that the cigarettes do not form bridges above the shaft inlets. 2, the shafts 3 are filled with cigarettes Z. Since in the starting position the openings 4a of the additional slide 4 and the recesses 6a of the first slide 6 lie exactly below the shafts 3, a cigarette Z comes from each shaft 3 onto the support rods 8a of the fixed carrier 8. Another cigarette Z is located in the outlet the shafts 3, in each of which a test device 13 is optionally arranged on both sides. These test devices 13 are used to check whether this cigarette is completely filled with tobacco or is provided with a filter at one end.
  • the additional slide 4 according to FIG. 3 is shifted slightly to the left, so that during the subsequent movement of the first slide 6 to the left, the tested cigarettes Z are held and thus protected from damage by the moving slide 6.
  • This slight movement of the additional slide 4 to the left also serves to prevent cigarettes Z falling down after a jam in the shafts 3 from falling into the recesses 6a of the first slide 6 and being crushed at the wrong time. Rather, the falling cigarettes Z are caught by the additional slide 4.
  • the displacement path of the additional slide 4 is sufficient to prevent the cigarettes Z from falling into the recess 6a, but it is small enough to prevent damage to the falling cigarettes Z if they fall at the wrong time when the additional slide 4 moved to the left, so that the cigarettes Z could be jammed between the additional slide 4 and the wall of the shaft 3.
  • the additional slide 4 can also be displaceable at the same time as the first slide 6, as long as the first slide 6 covers a larger displacement path than the additional slide 4. The additional slide 4 must be withdrawn with the first slide 6 at the latest.
  • Ejector devices 14 are arranged in the area of these cutouts 8b of the carrier 8 and are actuated depending on the result of the associated test device 13, with the corresponding delay. With the help of these ejection devices 14, the cigarettes Z determined to be defective are ejected in the axial direction, for example with the aid of a plunger or an air jet.
  • the cigarettes Z found to be correct are released by a movement of the second slide 9 from the position shown in FIG. 4 to the position shown in FIG. 5 and fall through the recesses 9a of the slide 9 into the storage shafts 10. From these they become the Subtracted formation of cigarette blocks. Simultaneously with the slide 9, the slide 6 and the additional slide 4 move back into the starting position.
  • the fill level of the storage wells 10 is monitored by the light barrier 11, so that the on drives 5 and 7 are stopped when the fill level in the storage shafts 10 exceeds the level monitored by the light barrier 11.
  • All the cigarettes Z are checked by the repetitive process, only the cigarettes identified as defective being sorted out either within the shafts 3 or in the region of the carrier 8.
  • the cigarettes Z jammed in the chutes 3 are removed by hand or mechanically.
  • the additional slide 4 is further developed.
  • This further development of the additional slide 4 is particularly advantageous if - as already mentioned above - a general malfunction of the device when a defective cigarette Z 'is jammed in one of the shafts 3 is to be prevented.
  • the cigarette Z 'jammed in the shaft 3 is removed by hand or by machine.
  • the shaft 3 below the jammed cigarette Z ' has emptied, the cigarettes Z located above slide after removing the jammed cigarette Z' in the shaft 3.
  • the slipping cigarettes Z can reach the first slide 6 at an unfavorable point in time when it moves to the left, so that the slipping cigarette Z is pinched. This causes the entire device to malfunction and stop.
  • the additional slide 4 is then moved below the chutes 3 and thus the further supply of cigarettes Z is blocked if a faulty one is jammed Cigarette Z 'in one of the chutes 3 of this chute 3 below the jammed cigarette Z' runs empty.
  • the additional slide 4 consists of a plurality of plate-shaped groups G1, G2, G3 each of four individual additional slide 4 ', each of which has an opening 4a between them.
  • the individual additional slides 4 'combined to form a group G1, G2, G3 are operated together, while the groups G1, G2, G3 as such, however, can be actuated independently of one another. If a faulty cigarette Z 'is jammed, the corresponding group of individual slide valves 4' is actuated. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, this is the middle group G2. After the fault in the form of the jammed cigarette Z 'has been eliminated, the closed group G2 is withdrawn again, so that the normal cigarettes Z' which have slipped in the meantime can be checked as usual.
  • each shaft 3 can of course be assigned an individual additional slide 4 '.
  • the control effort is greater here.
  • the triggering of the displacement of the additional slide 4 can take place by the test device 13. If this determines that there is no cigarette Z for testing, this can only be due to a faulty cigarette Z 'jamming in the shaft 3. In this case, the test device 13 actuates the additional slide 4 and shifts the corresponding group G2 to the left and thus blocks the further supply of cigarettes Z in the chutes 3 assigned to the group G2.
