Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing rod-shaped products in the tobacco processing industry.
  • the invention further relates to the use of a turning drum in a machine in the tobacco processing industry for the production of rod-shaped products which comprise several segments.
  • the invention relates to a machine for producing rod-shaped products of the tobacco processing industry, the machine having a first product run in which a first rod-shaped product of the tobacco processing industry is conveyed or can be conveyed transversely axially from a plurality of segments, and into a first and a second part product is cut or can be cut, the machine having a second product run, in which a further rod-shaped product of the tobacco processing industry is conveyed or can be conveyed transversely, the second product run being arranged behind the first product run in a conveying direction of the first product.
  • EP 3 231 300 A1 discloses a method for producing filter cigarettes, in which filter sticks are conveyed transversely axially, with a center Wrapping material are wrapped, cut through this wrapping material, turned through 180 ° and spaced axially apart from one another, in order to then be fed to a filter attachment machine. This produces filter cigarettes which have a double wrapping material at their tobacco-side end.
  • rod-shaped products are increasingly required in the tobacco processing industry. These can include multi-segment filters, rod-shaped tobacco products to which filter segments or spacer segments are attached, or so-called heat-not-burn products.
  • processing or processing can lead to damage or loss of quality in many conveying elements.
  • the intermediate segment can comprise a single segment or a plurality of segments.
  • an intermediate segment composed of two external segments of the same type and an intermediate segment of a different type can be combined.
  • a third product run can be provided, which makes the different segment in between available.

  • the second partial product is preferably also turned so that the orientation of the second partial product is changed by 180 ° about a transverse axis.
  • the turning of the second partial product takes place in such a way that the front face of the second partial product, which was outside before the turning, faces a front face of the intermediate segment after turning.
  • turning around a transverse axis by 180 ° is turning around a transverse axis, that is to say an axis orthogonal to a longitudinal axis of the first or second partial product or of the intermediate segment.
  • a turning of the second partial product and a simultaneous turning of the first partial product with the Intermediate segment can also be a staggering, pushing past and staggering backwards of the second partial product with the first partial product in combination with the intermediate segment.

  • a first product run is understood to mean, in particular, an arrangement of conveying and processing drums by means of which, for example, rod-shaped products from a plurality of segments which are covered with a wrapping material are removed from a magazine, are cut, then staggered and moved axially so that they are shifted are aligned transversely axially in order to then be delivered to a conveyor drum or assembly drum, on which they are then cut again in the middle, for example, in order to then carry out further processing steps.
  • a further processing step can be considered turning at least one of the cut rod-shaped products.
  • the second product run can have corresponding organs, such as conveying and processing drums, and serves to process and promote an intermediate segment in such a way that it is applied to the first partial product as a double-length product.
  • the second product run can provide for the joint turning of the first partial product with the intermediate segment.
  • a product run can also be constructed from appropriate conveying and processing elements, by means of which filters or other rod-shaped products of the tobacco processing industry can be removed from a magazine and conveyed and processed accordingly in order to provide correspondingly long segments of this material.

  • the second product run is preferably the last product run in which a segment of the rod-shaped product of the tobacco processing industry is conveyed to further segments or rod-shaped partial products.
  • the object is further achieved by a machine for producing rod-shaped products in the tobacco processing industry, the machine having a first product run in which a first rod-shaped product in the tobacco processing industry is conveyed or can be conveyed transversely axially from a plurality of segments, and the further Rod-shaped product in the second product run can be or is applied to the first part product from the outside, so that the order of further rod-shaped product, first part product and second part product results in a longitudinal axial direction of the products, the second product run in a conveying direction of the first product is arranged behind the first product run, characterized in that at the end of the second product run or immediately after the second product run, a turning drum is provided which is designed to receive the further rod-shaped product and the first partial product and to turn a transverse axis by 180 ° and, after turning, lay it in axial alignment with the second partial product.
