Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for producing rod-shaped smoking articles, comprising at least two of the following modules: stock feed for feeding strand rods, first filter feed for feeding first filter elements, second filter feed for feeding second filter elements, a production unit for finishing the rod-shaped smoking article, a post-processing unit and an output unit, wherein each of the modules has at least one drum for the transport and optionally further processing of the rod-shaped smoking article.
  • a tobacco rod or an empty tube rod is first produced, which is generally referred to below as a rod.
  • Empty tubes are later, for example, only filled by the consumer with tobacco.
  • the tobacco is first fed manually or mechanically to a distributor unit. Therein, the tobacco is treated and loosened up and finally fed via a Saugstrangmer, which transports the tobacco band-like as an endless tobacco rod, a string unit.
  • the string unit ensures that the open tobacco rod is wrapped in paper, usually in a cylindrical shape and the paper is glued. This creates an endless, guided tobacco rod.
  • This tobacco rod is then cut during transport through the strand unit into individual cylindrical tobacco rods, which usually have twice the length of the later finished tobacco rods in the product.
  • empty tube sticks can be produced in the abovementioned manner by omitting the tobacco as cylindrical paper tubes with inserted filter element.
  • the tobacco rod and the tobacco rods or the empty tube rods are transported longitudinally or longitudinally as a function of production, ie in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the rod-shaped smoking article.
  • the present device is provided for producing rod-shaped smoking articles with the at least two modules.
  • the preferably double-length molded tobacco sticks are transported for further finishing usually in troughs on the surface of rotating cylindrical drums, wherein the tobacco sticks are arranged axially parallel to the axis of the drum.
  • the double-length molded tobacco sticks are then severed in the middle into two tobacco sticks, spread and a filter element is placed between the two tobacco sticks. Subsequently, the filter paper is glued, which is also referred to as tipping paper and connects the filter element with two tobacco sticks. If now also the filter is divided again in the middle, you get two cigarettes of desired length.
  • the double-length tobacco sticks can also be further processed to filterless cigarettes, so that the addition of tipping paper and filter elements can be omitted.
  • the empty tube sticks are provided only with the filter or tipping paper and cut in the middle, so that you get two empty tubes desired length.
  • the DE 10 2005 051 525 A1 discloses a filter attachment machine having a stock feeder, a filter feeder, a tipping paper feeder, a post-processing unit, and an output unit.
  • the components mentioned together form a unit whose components are not directly separable from each other.
  • the DE 10 2004 063 097 A1 describes a machine of the tobacco processing industry in which the transfer of the rod-shaped smoking article between individual components for conveying, processing, assembly and / or testing of rod-shaped smoking articles is simplified by vertical conveyors.
  • the invention is therefore based on the technical problem of being able to make devices for producing rod-shaped smoking articles more variable.
  • each module has a separate drive for the at least one drum.
  • a tipping paper feed for feeding tipping paper sections is provided as a further module, wherein the tipping paper feed also has a separate drive.
  • the tipping paper feed may also be added as a stand alone unit to the device when needed. This is the case for the production of filter cigarettes or empty tubes, but not for the production of filterless cigarettes.
  • each module has a separate gear for driving further drums when the module has more than one drum.
  • each module can be economically manufactured and operated since the majority of the modules have more than one drum and not every drum requires its own drive. However, each module remains independent of other modules with respect to the drive.
  • modules to a device according to the invention are described below. Depending on which smoking article is to be produced, various modules are added to the device according to the invention or omitted.

  • the stock feed takes over the double long poles of the string unit, centers them on a common orientation and divides the poles by means of the cutting knife.
  • the module of the second filter supply which preferably has two transport drums, so that this module above the transport drums provides space for the arrangement of the plurality of drums for the supply and processing of second filter elements.
  • the first filter element is made of an acetate filter material and the second filter element is made of an activated carbon filter material.
  • the transport drums of the second filter feed pass the separate strand sticks to the adjoining module of the first filter feed.
  • this module has a plurality of drums for the supply and processing of first filter elements, in particular the second filter elements are transferred from the second filter supply to the first filter supply to produce a composite two-part filter, before it is combined with the strand rods.
  • the second filter feed preferably has a spreading drum for pushing the two strand sticks apart and a feed drum for bringing the filter elements and the strand sticks together into a double-length smoking article.
  • the first filter unit then passes the multi-component double-length smoking article to the module of the manufacturing unit.
  • the module of the production unit may be arranged as a further module a tipping paper supply for supplying tipping paper sections, which consists of at least one Bobine, a gluing unit and a cutting unit consists.
