In a system for manufacturing and packaging cigarettes each production unit comprising a cigarette making machine and packaging machines has associated therewith a supply station to which bobbins of raw materials are supplied, that is tipping paper, cigarette paper, carton wrapping paper, inner frame material, box blanks, pack blanks, metallized paper and cellophane or polypropylene, this being done on pallets allocated for each single article. The supply station is spanned by a portal. A portal robot movable longitudinally and transversely of the portal is provided for handling the bobbins of raw materials. Transport means are likewise provided for conveying the raw materials to the individual machines of the system and a bobbin changer is associated with each individual supply station for bobbins. The portal robot comprises an automatic tool changer. The portal, which can span both the supply stations and the bobbin changers, enables the portal robot to supply the bobbins directly to the bobbin changers and material waste to a waste station.
摘要:
In a method for controlling at least two physical properties, decisive for the quality of the finished smokable article, of a material rod of filter or tobacco material for the manufacture of smokable articles, in particular in filter or cigarette manufacture, the actual values of said properties are detected, the respective differences between the actual and desired values are determined and from the differences determined control signals are obtained for actuating elements influencing the mass of the material making up the rod; to facilitate the generation of the desired values, the control is performed during start-up or when specific events occur by means of only a single primary product parameter. On reaching the desired value for this primary product parameter, the associated actual values for at least one other secondary product parameter are detected; and at least one of said actual values is used after calculation and evaluation as desired value for the then switched on or added control by means of said secondary product parameter.

An apparatus for the continuous measurement of the draw resistance of a cigarette, comprising transducer which detects the pressure drop of a gas stream with constant volume, said gas stream being introduced at a format finger of a rod-producing machine into a rod of tobacco fibres. The measured value depending on the flow resistance of said rod is continuously determined and correlates very well with the usual static measurement of the draw resistance of cigarettes, i.e. of the tobacco rod of a cigarette, so that this continous draw resistance measurement during the cigarette production replaces not only the conventional random check but can also be used for controlling the production operation.

The invention relates to tobacco-containing foil filaments comprising tobacco particles, water, binding agents and moisturizing agents and having a substantially partially circular or closed circular cross-section, and to a method and apparatus for producing said foil filaments.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a smokable article which is intended to permit the smoker to avoid the condensates usually present in the smoke while retaining the taste experience familiar from conventional cigarettes; this is achieved in that a sheet-like carrier element coated with an aroma-carrying material and having a low thermal capacity is brought into direct thermal contact with a heat source comprising a hollow cylindrical combustion element having at least one passage therethrough wherein said passage is separate and distinct from the hollow portion; in the pauses between draws a cavity serves as collecting container or reservoir for the aromatic substances developed which can be inhaled in the next draw by the smoker.
摘要:
A smokable article including an aerosol generating zone which has a combustion element and a carrier for an aerosol precursor which coaxially surrounds the combustion element, flow passages in the aerosol generating zone and a mouthpiece. The combustion element includes axial flow passages extending over its entire length and a jacket formed of a gas-impermeable heat-insulating material. The jacket is surrounded at a distance by a concentric sleeve of a gas-impermeable material so that between the jacket and the sleeve at least one flow space results; the sucked-in air flows through the flow passages in the combustion element, then back through the flow space between the jacket and the sleeve and finally through the carrier for the aerosol precursor to the mouthpiece. The carrier includes a precursor, and the combustion element has a plurality of axial passages.
摘要:
With the present invention a tobacco sheet or foil is proposed which has an elevated filling force and consists of tobacco particles, water, binders and moisturizers, and relatively gas-impermeable, in particular surface-sealed cover layers being connected together by a spongy structure which is formed by gas-filled bubbles, and in which cavities are formed having a shaggy, furrowed and/or torn surface.

A filter cigatette comprises a tobacco rod having a tobacco mixture with a low packing or filling density, a first filter element racing the tobacco rod, having a retention capacity of 40 to 80% and consisting of a fibrous material having a low single denier and a high total denier, a second filter element facing the mouth of the smoker and having a retention capacity of 15% at the maximum, and a hollow chamber formed between the two filter elements and having a length of 3 to 7 mm at an overall length of the filter between 18 and 30 mm. The two filter elements and the hollow chamber are surrounded by a paper wrapper and an air-permeable tipping paper with a ventilation zone in the region of the hollow chamber; said ventilation zone ensures a ventilation degree of 50 to 85% and is created on the finished cigarette by laser beams or by mechanically produced perforations through both papers.In this way a more intensive taste sensation can be achieved together with a low nicotine to condensate ratio.
摘要:
Fibers of tobacco smoke filters which have been impregnated with dicarboxylic or polycarboxylic acids or anhydrides thereof can be obtained by dissolving anhydrides of dicarboxylic or polycarboxylic acids in volatile or physiologically acceptable organic solvents and applying them to the fibers and, if appropriate, hydrolyzing them with water.
摘要:
A coaxial cigarette comprising an inner core of a material, which glows substantially residue-free, in particular tobacco material, a wrapper for the inner core, an outer jacket which consists of a tobacco and/or non-tobacco material and coaxially surrounds the inner core and its wrapper, and a wrapper for the outer jacket, has a ventilated coaxial filter with a filter core, the internal diameter of which corresponds substantially to the diameter of the inner core, and with a filter jacket; the filter core has an air-impermeable wrapper; the filter jacket has an air-permeable wrapper; the wrapper of the inner core and the wrapper of the outer jacket are provided with glow agents; and the draw resistance of the inner core is lower than the draw resistance of the outer jacket.
