Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for producing a first subunit of an HNB smoking article with a rod body and a cavity arranged thereon with the features of the preamble of claim 1, a subunit with the features of the preamble of claims 9 and 14 and an HNB smoking article Claims 13 and 18.
  • HNB smoking articles are based on a fundamentally different principle of releasing the essential components of the tobacco than conventional smoking articles, in which the components are released by burning the tobacco.
  • HNB heat not burn
  • the components of the tobacco are instead released by flowing hot gases through the tobacco and/or heating the tobacco, so that the smoke components that were previously forced to be released when the tobacco was burned are at least significantly reduced can even be avoided entirely.
  • a heat source is provided in the HNB smoking article, which is arranged on the side of the HNB smoking article facing away from the mouthpiece, i.e. upstream of the pulling direction in relation to the tobacco, so that the gases heated by the heat source flow through the tobacco and Heat the tobacco and remove the essential components from the tobacco.
  • the tobacco can also be heated directly from the heat source.
  • the HNB smoking articles are composed of several subunits or segments, which are separated by one or more Wrapping strips are held together.
  • a cavity is provided between the heat source and the tobacco segment, which is filled with a flavoring agent or catalyst in the form of loose pellets or fibers.
  • the hot gases generated by the heat source then flow through the flavoring agent or the catalyst before they flow through the tobacco, so that the hot gases flowing in from the heat source can be positively influenced in the sense of an improved taste or also to reduce harmful components.
  • the gases heated by the heat source or the direct heating of the tobacco by the heat source must bring about a comparatively high temperature in order to outgas the components from the tobacco, so that a cooling section can also be provided downstream of the tobacco in which the gases emerging from the tobacco Gases are then cooled so that the consumer does not burn their mouth when smoking.
  • Such HNB smoking articles are basically from the literature US 2011/0041861 A1 , US 2004/0173229 A1 and EP 2 777 408 A1 known.
  • the cavity by wrapping a flexible covering strip around the heat source and gluing it to the rod-shaped heat source with an axially directed projection.
  • the wrapping strip is provided with an L-shaped glue seam and glued to the rod-shaped heat source with one leg of the L-shaped glue seam and with the two free edges that overlap over the other leg of the L-shaped glue seam to form a cylindrical one Shape glued.
  • the axial projection of the covering strip then subsequently forms a cylindrical cavity that is open to an end face of the first subunit.
  • the wrapping strip is glued to the heat source at certain points in a first step with the L-shaped glue seam, so that the wrapping strip is glued to the heat source in a correspondingly crooked manner when pulled diagonally and the resulting oblique alignment occurs.
  • the wrapping strip must be correspondingly flexible so that it can be wrapped around the heat source, which is disadvantageous for a subsequent cutting process, since the wrapping strip tends to give way during the cutting process due to its flexibility. This means that a clean cut, if possible at all, can only be achieved with considerable effort.
  • the cavity formed by the axial projection of the wrapping strip is then filled with the pellets or fibers of a flavor carrier or a catalyst, for which purpose the heat source must be aligned with the adjacent cavity formed by the wrapping strip in a vertical manner with a cavity that is open at the top so that the pellets or fibers can be filled in from above in a process-efficient manner.
  • this filling process can be made more difficult under unfavorable circumstances if the flexible wrapping strip is deformed, for example due to kinks, and the cavity is therefore not completely freely accessible from above.
  • the invention is based on the object of creating a method for producing a first subunit of an HNB smoking article with a rod body and a cavity arranged thereon, which is improved in terms of process reliability and quality.
  • a tubular body is arranged and fastened on one of the end faces of the rod body.
  • the advantage of the proposed solution can be seen in the fact that, due to the proposed use of the tubular body, the cavity adjacent to the rod body is formed by a molded part which already has the cavity itself.
  • the cavity is not, as is known in the prior art, only created by attaching the flexible wrapping strip and gluing the edge sides of the wrapping strip; the cavity is already part of the tubular body and is practically in the rod body by attaching the tubular body to the rod body finished shape attached to the rod body.
  • the cavity can thereby be arranged and fastened to the rod body in the mold in a much better quality and with considerably greater process reliability than was possible with the known manufacturing process.
  • the shape and size of the cavity can be specifically determined by dimensioning the cavity arranged and attached to the rod body Tubular body done.
  • the tubular body is a dimensionally stable body with a cavity which is so rigid that the geometry is at least approximately constant under the transverse forces acting during the manufacturing process.
  • the tubular body can also have a cross-sectional geometry adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the rod body, so that the composition of the rod body and the tubular body results in a first subunit with a uniform, continuous external geometry.
  • the pipe body can be designed in terms of wall thickness and the choice of material so that it can be particularly easily connected to the rod body and then cut reliably.
  • the rigidity of the tubular body is selected so that the cavity remains open upwards in any case, even under the acting lateral process forces, so that it can be filled reliably from above.
  • the pipe bodies can be cut to a predetermined length from a prefabricated pipe, which can be purchased inexpensively as a prefabricated purchased part by the meter.
  • a particularly simple type of fastening can be achieved by fastening the tubular body to the bar body by means of a first wrapping strip glued to the rod body and to the tubular body.
  • the covering strip includes both a section of the rod body and a section of the tubular body and is glued to the overlapping surfaces. After applying a glue, the wrapping strip can be glued to the rod body and the tubular body using a proven rolling process.
  • the first covering strip is glued over the entire surface to the tubular body and the rod body. By gluing over the entire surface, a very strong connection can be created with a very high positional accuracy of the first covering strip to the rod body and the tubular body.
  • the first covering strip is preferably only glued to a surface of a maximum of 30%, preferably 20% to 30%, of the lateral surface of the heat source.
  • the heat source has a free area to the environment that is necessary for its functionality, with bonding of the covering strip in an area of 20% to 30% of the lateral surface still being sufficient for secure attachment of the covering strip and the tubular body held thereby.
  • the tubular body is coated on the inside with a metallic and/or organic coating before it is attached to the rod body.
  • the proposed coatings serve to prevent the passage of gas or liquids through the pipe body. Since this penetration should be prevented even at very high temperatures, it is further suggested that the coating is stable up to a temperature of at least 350 degrees Celsius.
  • the process can be further improved in order to increase production capacity by arranging a double-length tubular body between two rod bodies and connecting them to them and then cutting them in the middle.
  • two first subunits can each consist of a rod body and a tubular body can be manufactured in a single connection step with a subsequent cutting process.
  • the tubular body can be connected to the two rod bodies particularly easily by connecting the double-length tubular body to the two rod bodies in a single step before cutting via a double-wide covering strip.
  • the double-width wrapping strip wetted with glue, is rolled around the double-length tubular body and an annular contact surface of the rod body in a single rolling process and is glued to them.
  • the method can be further simplified by cutting the double-length tubular body with a horizontally oriented longitudinal axis, and then twisting the two first subunits formed thereby, each consisting of a rod body with a tubular body held thereon, into a vertical orientation with an upwardly open cavity of the tubular body become.
  • the horizontally aligned double-length tubular body is located coaxially between the two rod bodies, that is, the double-length tubular body is inserted in a horizontal alignment between the rod bodies, or the rod bodies are placed coaxially on the outside of the horizontally aligned double-length tubular body, which is very easy to implement in terms of process technology.
  • the double-length tubular body is then cut in the middle, for example by passing it past a blade of a stationary knife in a proven drum conveying process.
  • the rod body and the tubular body are connected to one another with horizontally aligned longitudinal axes to form the first subunit, and the first subunit is then rotated to such an extent that the longitudinal axes of the rod body and the tubular body are aligned vertically and the tubular body with the cavity opened upwards the rod body is arranged, and the cavity is then filled from above with a filling material.
  • the proposed further development allows the filling material, in this case the pellets or fibers of the filling material, to be filled into the cavities particularly easily, with the dimensional stability of the tubular bodies ensuring that the cavities are freely accessible from above. Furthermore, the filling process can be further improved due to the dimensional stability of the tubular body, since the tubular body forms a dimensionally stable cavity for receiving the filling material, which retains its shape even when transverse forces are exerted. This means that the filling material can also be filled automatically at a certain pressure, for example. In addition, the cavity is not compressed even if the tubular body comes to rest laterally against a counter surface of the manufacturing system.
  • the tubular body is made of cellulose.
  • the tube body can be made, for example, from cardboard with a wall thickness of 0.1 to 0.3 mm.
  • the use of cellulose is also advantageous in terms of environmental compatibility and production costs, since cellulose is a very cheap material, but sufficient for the requirements here.
  • an HNB (heat not burn) smoking article 1 can be seen in the form of a cigarette.
  • the HNB smoking article 1 is composed of several subunits 2, 3, 4 and 5 or segments, which are held together by three wrapping strips 6, 7 and 8.
  • the first subunit 2 is formed here by a rod body 9 with an adjacent tubular body 10, which are connected to one another via the first covering strip 6.
  • the second subunit 3 is a tobacco stick filled with tobacco fibers 15, the third subunit 4 is a filter filled with filter material 16 and the fourth subunit 5 is finally a mouthpiece, which is formed by a pipe section 18 with a cavity 17.
  • the second subunit 3 is connected to the first subunit 2 via the second wrapping strip 7 and the third subunit 4, together with the fourth subunit 5, is connected to the second subunit 3 via the third wrapping strip 8. Overall, this results in a dimensionally stable, rod-shaped HNB smoking article 1 with a circular cross-sectional area.
  • the rod body 9 of the first subunit 2 is formed here by a heat source, which comprises a heat-generating, combustible core 12, such as activated carbon, and an insulating layer 11.
  • a heat source which comprises a heat-generating, combustible core 12, such as activated carbon, and an insulating layer 11.
  • activated carbon electrically activated heat sources or heat sources with a fuel other than activated carbon can also serve as heat sources.
  • the rod body 9 is adjoined by the tubular body 10 attached thereto, which has a cavity 14 and is formed by a thin tubular wall 13 made of cellulose with a preferred wall thickness of 0.1 to 0.3 mm.
  • a loose amount of cellulose-based pellets 19 soaked in propylene glycol which serve to influence the taste and/or reduce components in the hot gases generated by the heat source.
  • the tubular body 10 has such dimensional stability that the shape of the cavity 14 is not changed even under the transverse forces acting during the manufacturing process.
  • the cavity 14 adjacent to the rod body 9 is thus practically pre-fixed by the tubular body 10 and is practically attached to the rod body 9 by connecting the tubular body 10 to the rod body 9 by the manufacturing method described below.
  • the consumer activates the HNB smoking article 1 by igniting the combustible core 12 of the heat source and pulling on the mouthpiece, in this case the fourth subunit 5, like a conventional cigarette.
  • the sucked air flow then flows from the heat source through the pellets 19 arranged in the cavity 14 of the tubular body 10 through the tobacco fibers 15 of the tobacco stick and in the process gases them essential components of the tobacco fibers 15.
  • This hot gas stream enriched by the essential components of the tobacco fibers 15, then flows further through the filter material 16 and the cavity 17 of the mouthpiece and is then inhaled by the consumer.
  • the air flow in the filter material 16 and in the path of the cavity 17 is cooled down. If the cooling is not sufficient, additional cooling sections with and without cooling material can of course be provided.
  • the invention relates to the method for producing the first subunit 2 with the rod body 9, formed by the heat source, and the adjacent cavity 14, which is described below on the basis of Fig. 2 is described in more detail.
  • a double-length rod body 20 is fed and cut in the middle into two individual rod bodies 9 of single length.
  • the two rod bodies 9 are then pulled apart and a double-length tubular body 21 is inserted between the rod bodies 9, as in the illustrations above Fig. 2 can be recognized.
  • the double-length tube bodies 21 can be cut in previous processing steps from tube pieces of multiple lengths, then staggered and lined up one behind the other using air pressure to form a sequence of double-length, identically aligned tube bodies 21 with parallel longitudinal axes, the width of the strip corresponding to the length of the double-length tube bodies 21 .
  • the double-length tubular bodies 21 are first staggered after cutting and then pushed together into the strip in the identical orientation using air pressure.
  • the pushing together can also be done mechanically via a counter surface.
  • the pushing together using air pressure is advantageous in that it means that the load on the double-length tubular bodies 21 is as low as possible, and it is also possible to move the double-length tubular bodies 21 on a kind of air cushion to further reduce the load.
  • a double-wide first wrapping strip 22 is supplied, which is preferably wetted over the entire surface with a glue and is wrapped in a rolling process around the double-length tubular body 21 and around approximately 20 to 30% of the adjacent, annular lateral surfaces of the rod body 9, whereby the double-length tubular body 21 is connected to the two rod bodies 9 arranged on the end faces.
  • the assembly created in this way is cut by a central cut through the double-length tubular body 21 into two first subunits 2, each consisting of a rod body 9 and a single-length tubular body 10, each of which is connected to one another by a first wrapping strip 6 of single width.
  • the cut through the double-length tubular body 21 is carried out in a horizontal orientation of the double-length tubular body 21, which has the advantage that the rod bodies 9 and the double-length tubular body 21 are transported on a lateral surface of a transport drum with a horizontal axis of rotation, whereby a cut with a particularly high cutting quality can be achieved. Furthermore, the cutting quality is improved in that the cavity 14 for receiving the pellets 19 is formed by the dimensionally stable double-length tubular body 21, which is then attached to the rod body 9 by the double-wide wrapping strip 22. Due to its dimensional stability, the dimensionally stable, double-length tubular body 21 provides the cutting blade with such high resistance that it moves during not deformed during the cutting process. As a result, the cutting knife cuts through the double-length tubular body 21 in a clean and vertical cut with a high cutting quality.
  • the first two subunits 2 are rotated into an orientation in which their longitudinal axes are aligned vertically and in which the two cavities 14 are open at the top by the tubular bodies 10 over the rod bodies 9 are arranged, as in the illustrations below Fig. 2 can be recognized.
  • the pellets 19 are then filled into the cavities 14 from above.
  • the process for producing the first subunits 2 is now completed.
  • the second subunit 3 in this case the tobacco stick, is placed coaxially from above and connected to the first subunit 2 by means of the second wrapping strip 7.
  • the third subunit 4 and the fourth subunit 5 are then also placed coaxially one after the other and connected to the second subunit 3 via the third wrapping strip 8.
  • the method was described for producing the first subunit 2 with the heat source, but it would also be possible to fix the third subunit 4 with the fourth subunit 5 as an assembly in the same manufacturing process, in which case the cavity 17 in the mouthpiece would be filled would be omitted.
  • the proposed manufacturing method of the first subunit 2 also has advantages for other subunits or segments of the HNB smoking article 1, provided that adjacent cavities must be provided. Firstly, due to the use of the proposed tubular bodies 10, the cavities themselves are dimensionally stabilized, so that the fixation of the subunits by means of the wrapping strips is simplified. In particular, the tubular body 10 creates a dimensionally stable contact surface for bonding the wrapping strip. Furthermore, the subunits are each assembled with vertically aligned longitudinal axes, so that the tubular body 10 in this case also serves as a spacer for the adjacent subunit to be placed.
  • a further advantage of the invention can be seen in the fact that the first subunit 2 can also be manufactured and stored temporarily in a prefabrication process. If activated carbon is used as a heat source, it makes sense to cut the rod bodies 9 immediately after the strand has been produced, since the activated carbon can still be easily cut in this state before it hardens due to cooling.
  • the first subunits 2 can be stored temporarily both after and before cutting the double-length tubular body 21.
