Description of the Invention: [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for introducing articles into a rod of a tobacco industrial product during manufacture of the rod. [Prior Art] Carbon This technique is well known to include additives in smoking articles. Examples of additives include different fragrances or pigments, and the conventional method of adsorbing a particular substance from the smoke and not including carbon just in the filter rod, which has included adhering the particulate additive to the line - and then It is inserted into the bar. The carbon density included in the nozzle manufactured by this method is limited, and it is desirable to provide a large amount of carbon in a small volume. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The product provides a device for introducing an article into the mouthpiece of the tobacco worker during the manufacture of the rod. The device comprises an object storage unit, which is organized from the object storage hall. Save the morning 70, a transport fluid flow towel transports the object, and - ". (4) seems to be in the continuous flow of the body to the filter, rod or material. 35 out of 70, to provide the continuous pressurized flow Xiaoyan - used to introduce objects into the grass body during the manufacture of the pole = the library storage unit receives the object, in the - continuous processing plant s_ 〇 输送 convey the object and feed the continuous pressurized fluid flow to 201130432; Further, the present invention further provides a smoking article manufactured according to the above method. [Embodiment] ν\ ' ' 1 : In the text, a reference is made to an object such as a fine particle such as carbon fine particles. The role of the rod and the material. In particular, activated carbon or combined, beaded carbon can be used. However, it should be understood that other objects that can be used as additives can be used: = the stem of the straw rod is manufactured by a rod, f Included - a fine particle insertion unit 2 'The filter in the form of cellulose acetate tow, the rod 3 is injected and compressed. The material is filled with two sheets of paper and said: === material; for the skilled person, it will be understood that cellulose acetate can be used. A cross section of the fine rod inserting unit 2 with the filter rod manufacturing machine shown in Fig.! The fine tongue/joined pellet feeding funnel or hopper 7, - 早 early 70 2 series containing - fine insertion tube 9 can be folded Make it vertical / (four) section, consider 82 - insertion tube 9. The position of the insertion tube 9 can be profitable, the insertion shown: tube adjustment two delivery: adjustment. This allows the fine-grained fluid flow to be made along the face rod 3 Bit, or alternative deviation from the center 俚 half ".,,,. The axis is fixed ten lights in the vertical _ line. Fine particle insertion 4 201130432 Soap Τ The air injection port l〇a-c shown in Figure 1. Referring further to Figure 2, the feed funnel or material main or other object for insertion into the mast material I f is configured to accept fine-grained fine particles, which are artificially or alternatively utilized, preferably conical, for feeding A canister or a screw feeder (not shown), etc.::: the device, the groove type is moved to the hopper 7. An enlarged cross-sectional view of a Guvern's tube split 8 of a plurality of mechanical or sputum delivery components. U, vehicle 6 /, 匕 3 eight has an axial aperture 12 of the conical block into the t aperture 12 is attached - receives a fine particle 14 = 13 from the hopper 7 and a fine grain Μ supply to the insertion ^ With a circle: the shaped block u is received in a generally cylindrical shell. The conic shape is separated from the block 11. ^uI_17, convergence, ..."Two air channels into the camp Q 4 passage 17 in the aperture The exit 1-5 of the 12 is opened to the 9th. The air supply passage 17 is fed by compressed air injected into C from three air injection ports. One of them is shown in Fig. 3. The air jet D l〇a-c is coupled to a compressed air or other gas supply (not shown) _ ^ to each of the longitudinal holes in the converging air supply passage 17 < 1 Although the jet injection port i〇a_c is fed by air, a straight-through fluid such as helium or nitrogen may be used. The λ fines 14 are received from the hopper 7 and are bowed into the axial bore 12. Compressed air from the inlet 10a is directed along the longitudinal aperture 18 to a zone 15 in which the axial aperture 12 and the longitudinal aperture 18 converge. During the operation of the venturi device 8, the fine particles i4 are advanced to the filter rod village 3 by the venturi effect as the fine particles 14 201130432 are formed into the filter rod. Fig. 4 shows the intention of the air flow in the venturi device 8 of the operation unit of the fine particle insertion unit 2. When air is pushed from the injection supply sources l〇a, lb through the longitudinal apertures 18a, 18b and into the insertion tube 9, a low pressure region is created in the region 15 and the insertion tube 9. The fine particles 14 initially occupy a high pressure region relative to the low pressure region 15. A pressure gradient force is generated which acts on the fine particles 14 and advances the fine particles 14 into the insertion tube 9 at a greater speed when it is acted upon by a force caused by gravity alone. This allows a high density of carbon fine particles 14 to be inserted into the filter rod. The insertion tube 9 is fed into the tongue 4 of the tamping rod maker 1. The position of the insertion tube 9 can be adjusted relative to the longitudinal axis of the mast in manufacture. In Fig. 2, the insertion tube 9 is bent, but in other embodiments, the insertion tube 9 may be linear. The fine particles can be centered or substantially parallel but offset from the longitudinal axis by the insertion tube adjustment wheel 9a shown in Fig. 沿着 along the longitudinal axis of the filter rod. Figure 5 shows an alternative embodiment of the invention. The fine particles 14 are stored in a fine particle storage unit 19 by being inserted into the filter and the crucible in the rod. The storage unit 19 includes a pressurized air supply source 20 that is operable to inject an air jet 21 into the chamber 22. The direction of the air jet 21 is represented by the arrow of Fig. 5. Pressurized air injection 2〗 will drive a fine particle 4 flow to an outlet tube. The fine particles 14 that are forced into the outlet pipe 23 are conveyed to the insertion pipe 9 of an alternative yoke which is subjected to a high pressure, air injection 21 and guided to the fine particle insertion unit 2. The insertion tube 9 can operate in substantially the same manner as described above with reference to Figures 1-4. Figure 6 is a cross-sectional view of a filter rod 24 made using the implement. A 6 201130432 The zone 25 containing carbon fines may substantially follow the diameter of the longitudinal direction of the filter rod 26 and may depend in large part on the insertion of j _ by fine particles. Area i is taken. The 9 mus of the t υ z or the area 25 containing the carbon granules 14 can be stretched in parallel. The position of the elastic allowable zone 25 is controlled by a square mouth paper (10) or another suitable wrapper that is well known in the art for forming a filter for smoking articles; 3 the embodiment described with reference to Figure 115 Wherein, a single-continuous flow from the fine particles 14 inserted into the filter (4) 3 can be formed to form a system formed by the continuous flow of the fine particles 14, and the second: the rod 27 can then The well-known method σ of the dotted line 1 is cut to produce a part of the mouth. Figure 8 shows a cigarette 29 of the sputum 4 filter 30 of Figure 7 which has been attached to the material of the filter 30 according to the technique known in the art. The rod 3 contains carbon fine any carbon fine particles 13 < "can contact the secret 29 (four) straw 31. The filter does not contain contact, the mouth 26 can be (four) pumping _ between the user and the user's mouth may affect the material. The configuration can reduce the carbon fine particles 14 in the smoking according to the above description; taste and fun any unpleasant effect. The advantages of fine particles, a large number of reduced items have a composition that can contain a large amount of carbon modified smoke. It is known that in the case of smoking in the mouth of the smoking article, it is conceivable that the present invention can be used in the mouth of 201130432 which has a smaller diameter than the king size cigarette. 'And in which it is desired to insert a large amount of carbon fine particles into a small volume of filter material. The present invention can be combined with a well-known dalmatian or active patch nozzle to further increase these nozzles. Figure 9 shows a fine insert in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention. 2. The insertion unit 2 shown in Fig. 9 is similar to the insertion unit 2 shown in Fig. 2. However, the insertion unit 2 shown in Fig. 9 includes a high flow vacuum pump instead of the venturi shown in Fig. 2. Inserting device 8. The fine particle inserting unit 2 also includes a fine grain feeding hopper 7 and an outlet pipe 9. (4) The bucket 7 wires are turned from each other - the cone section ^ + 6 is formed by the funnel. 7 to the vacuum pump 32 can benefit from the air passing through the bottom of the hopper 7 'by which the fine particles stored therein are fluidized. The south flow vacuum pump 32 can belong to the art of transfer technology such as κν· high flow straight space material Known-type. Compressed air enters vacuum pump 32 via an air inlet 33 and whirls through a central tube 34 of pump 32. The cyclonic flow produces a vacuum that can extract fines from the hopper 7 or add ", 26 Passing through the central tube 34 and entering the outlet tube 9 to converge on Figure 1
