Description

Technical Field

[0001] The patent of the present invention relates to the field of tobacco technology, specifically a non-destructive stripping device for tipping paper in cigarette filters and its application. Background Art

[0002] Cigarette tipping paper, also known as tipping paper, is used to connect filters to cigarettes and is one of the important tobacco materials in the production process of cigarettes. With the development of new material technology and its application in tobacco materials, in addition to the basic function of "connection", tobacco tipping paper has been continuously given various special functions such as decoration, anti-counterfeiting, tar reduction, flavor enhancement, and antibacterial. Cigarette tipping paper is in direct contact with consumers' lips and mouths. In recent years, the research and development and application of its antibacterial and flavor enhancement functions have become the key areas of innovation for tobacco materials companies. For example, ZL200610149737.5 discloses a method for preparing antibacterial tipping paper by coating chitin nano-ultrafine powder on the surface of tipping paper; ZL201310685555.X discloses a method for adding wintergreen oil to pulp raw materials to give tipping paper bactericidal, antibacterial and mildew-proof functions; ZL201410463212.3 discloses a sweet-flavored tipping paper to increase the sweetness and fragrance of cigarette tipping paper; ZL201620136656.0 discloses a method for making tea-flavored tipping paper, which has the advantages of being relatively fresh and not easy to break. Testing the functional effects of these tipping papers with special functions such as antibacterial or flavoring is also one of the important research contents. The test objects include both functional tipping paper and tipping paper rolled into filter tips. At present, the tipping paper of cigarette filters is basically peeled off manually, which is difficult to operate and the tipping paper is easily damaged during the peeling process. ZL 200710054313.5 and ZL 201711075502.0 disclose a method of separating the tipping paper by soaking the filter tip end with a prepared solution. Soaking will affect the functional effect of the filter tipping paper in subsequent tests. Therefore, non-destructive and complete removal of the filter tipping paper has become one of the practical technical problems that need to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of the above technical problems, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a device for non-destructive stripping of tipping paper in cigarette filters and its application, which realizes the damage-free and complete stripping of filter tipping paper in a sterile environment, and is used for sample preparation in functional effect tests such as antibacterial and taste, providing tipping paper samples that are consistent with the state in the filter for testing.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0005] A non-destructive stripping device for tipping paper in a cigarette filter and its application, including a non-destructive stripping device for tipping paper in a cigarette filter, the device is used in the preparation of tipping paper samples in the functional effect test of antibacterial tipping paper and flavor tipping paper in cigarette filters.

[0009] Preferably, the stripping blades are in groups of 3 to 5, each group being a double-blade type, and are used for stripping and clamping the tipping paper.

[0010] The heating temperature and heating time of the heating plate are achieved by setting the temperature of the heating device on the control panel. The temperature setting range is 60-100°C, the heating method is instant heating, and the heating time is 10-30s.

[0011] The device is used for preparing tipping paper samples in the functional effect test of antibacterial tipping paper and flavor tipping paper in cigarette filters.

[0012] When in use, turn on the ultraviolet disinfection lamp for 15-20 minutes through the control panel; then place the cigarette in the cigarette slot through the flip door, so that the connection of the cigarette tipping paper faces the heating plate, and use the control panel to fix the filter end and tobacco end of the cigarette with the cigarette pressing sheet; set the heating temperature and heating time of the heating device, and set the temperature range to 60-100℃ and the heating time range to 10-30s; after the heating is completed, use the control panel to position the bracket at the tipping paper, start the double-layer blade of the stripping blade to open, insert the tipping paper connection, and clamp the tipping paper; through the control panel, set the roller machine to drive the cigarette to rotate 360° to separate the tipping paper; through the control panel, slide the bracket through the slide to the collection box, and place the stripped tipping paper in the collection box; through the control panel, make the cigarette pressing sheet pop off from the filter end and tobacco end of the cigarette; open the flip door, and take out the cigarette and tipping paper from the cigarette fixing box and the collection box respectively; obtain a complete and intact tipping paper in the cigarette filter.

[0013] The tipping paper samples obtained by this device fully meet the requirements for samples in the functional effect test of antibacterial tipping paper and flavor tipping paper in cigarette filters, providing technical support for the effect test of these two types of functional tipping papers.

[0014] The present invention is based on a non-destructive stripping device for tipping paper in a cigarette filter. The device heats the tipping paper connection in the filter at a specific temperature and a specific time through a heating plate, quickly reducing the adhesion of the connection. Multiple groups of double-blade stripping blades are used to strip the tipping paper from the filter end, the middle, and the tobacco end of the tipping paper connection at the same time. The stripped tipping paper is sent to a collection box at a slideway by the stripping blade and its bracket, which can achieve complete stripping of the tipping paper in the cigarette filter, effectively avoiding damage to the tipping paper and possible pollution caused by manual operation. The application of the device includes the preparation of tipping paper samples in the functional effect test of antibacterial tipping paper and taste tipping paper in cigarette filters. The device structure in the present invention is reasonably designed, and can be completed by simple processing and manufacturing using a commercial device. The operation is simple and convenient, meeting the requirements for the preparation of tipping paper samples in two types of tests of antibacterial tipping paper and taste tipping paper in cigarette filters. It is easy to promote and use in testing and analysis laboratories, and provides technical support for the research and development and testing of functional tipping paper.
