[0002] One of the typical problems in the production of Chinese cigarettes is moisture preservation. On the one hand, the smoke produced by the burning of cigarettes is hot and dry. When smoking, this dry and high-temperature smoke produces a certain degree of burning sensation in the mouth; on the other hand, in dry areas, the moisture of cigarettes is easily lost quickly, causing the cigarettes to dry out, which further reduces the moisture content of the smoke. At present, the entire industry's research on smoke moisture preservation is still limited to the research on the moisturizing seal of cigarettes in cigarette boxes.

[0003] Patent application number CN201810947331.4 discloses a cigarette filter. By adding a container capable of directionally releasing water-based flavorings between two filter base rods of the cigarette filter, the container is squeezed by external force to allow the water-based flavorings to be directionally released, thereby improving the moisturizing and flavoring effects of cigarettes and enhancing the sensory enjoyment of smokers.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] The moisture-retaining and aroma-retaining substances currently added to cigarette filters are usually fat-soluble spices such as popping beads, fragrance beads, and fragrance threads, and the addition of water-soluble spices is still rare. Water-soluble spices need to be wrapped in a closed container (firmware), and during the release process, they cannot be contaminated with kraft paper, so they need to be released directionally into the filter fiber (filter base rod 8) in the filter. The filter material can be materials such as acetate fiber and propylene fiber. Water-based spices are generally water, liquid spices, or a mixture of water and spices. The closed container generally adopts a truncated cone shape with a large top and a small bottom to facilitate the flow of smoke, reduce the suction resistance of the filter, and enhance the sensory enjoyment of smoking. The end face of the spice release end of the closed container adopts a crackable structure with a thick middle and a thin periphery. When an external force squeezes the cone cylinder, the periphery of the bottom concave end breaks, so that the water-based spices can be released directionally from the peripheral fracture of the concave end. The water-based spices drip and infiltrate the filter fibers at the concave end along the circumferential direction to increase the filtering effect. The purpose of this application is to implant the firmware wrapped with water-soluble flavors into the filter base rod 8 in a specific order to obtain a filter rod with the function of directional release of water-based flavors, and then obtain a cigarette filter with the function of directional release of water-based flavors.

[0037] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 A filter rod firmware implanting device, wherein the firmware refers to a container capable of directionally releasing water-based flavors, the container is in a truncated cone shape, and the water-based flavors can be directionally released from one end of the container, comprising a frame 1, on which a base rod conveying tray 2, a firmware conveying tray 3, a compound tray 4 and a gap-eliminating tray 5 are rotatably arranged, and the base rod conveying tray 2, the firmware conveying tray 3, the compound tray 4 and the gap-eliminating tray 5 can rotate around their respective axes under the drive of a driving mechanism.

[0038] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 Specifically, a plurality of first card slots 6 and second card slots 7 are alternately provided in the circumferential direction of the composite disk 4, and a first paddle 14 for connecting the filter base rod 8 on the base rod conveying disk 2 to the first card slot 6 and a second paddle 10 for connecting the firmware 9 on the firmware conveying disk 3 to the second card slot 7 are also provided on the outer side of the composite disk 4 on the frame 1. A plurality of firmware card slots 301 for matching and accommodating the firmware 9 are evenly provided in the circumferential direction of the firmware conveying disk 3, and a plurality of base rod card slots 201 for matching and accommodating the filter base rod 8 are evenly provided in the circumferential direction of the base rod conveying disk 2. A guide plate 11 is also provided on the frame 1, and one side of the guide plate 11 is arc-shaped. A gap-eliminating conveying channel 12 is formed between the arc-shaped surface of the gap-eliminating disk 5 and the guide plate 11. A third paddle 13 for alternately connecting the firmware 9 and the filter base rod 8 on the composite disk 4 to the gap-eliminating conveying channel 12 is also provided at the top of the guide plate 11, and the firmware 9 and the filter base rod 8 output through the gap-eliminating conveying channel 12 are abutted end to end.

[0039] See also Figure 1-Figure 4, the process of the filter rod firmware implanting device of the above embodiment implanting the firmware into the filter rod is as follows: the filter base rod 8 is transported by the firmware conveying disk 3, and when the filter base rod 8 is transported to the position of the first paddle 14, the filter base rod 8 is connected to the first card slot 6 of the composite disk 4 under the action of the first paddle 14, and the firmware 9 is transported by the firmware conveying disk 3, and when the firmware is transported to the position of the second paddle 10, the firmware 9 is connected to the second card slot 7 of the composite disk 4 under the action of the second paddle 10, and when the firmware 9 is located in the second card slot 7, its axis is perpendicular to the central axis of the composite disk 4, and when the filter base rod 8 is located in the first card slot 6, its axis is perpendicular to the central axis of the composite disk 4, so that the handover of the firmware on the base rod conveying disk 2 and the firmware conveying disk 3 to the composite disk 4 is completed, and after the firmware 9 and the filter base rod 8 are transferred to the composite disk 4, The filter base rods 8 and the fixings 9 in the composite disk 4 are alternately distributed between the output end and the input end. The filter base rods 8 and the fixings 9 in the composite disk 4 are then transferred to the gap eliminating disk 5 through a disk type method. The filter base rods 8 and the fixings 9 in the gap eliminating disk 5 are transferred to the gap eliminating conveying channel 12 in sequence. The gap between the filter base rods 8 and the fixings 9 is eliminated by controlling the rotation speed of the gap eliminating disk 5 and the composite disk 4. The gap eliminating conveying channel 12 is located as a whole below the output end of the composite disk 4 to ensure that there is no gap between the filter base rods 8 and the fixings 9 in the gap eliminating conveying channel 12, so that the filter base rods 8 and the fixings 9 are abutted end to end. After the gap is eliminated, the filter base rods 8 and the fixings 9 are rolled into finished filter rods in the forming channel 30 of the forming cigarette making machine 29 to complete the implantation of the fixings in the filter rods. After the filter rods are cut, a cigarette filter tip with a directional flavor release function can be obtained.

[0040] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some possible implementation schemes, the filter rod firmware implanting device also includes a firmware sorting and feeding device 32 connected to the input end of the firmware conveying plate 3, the firmware sorting and feeding device 32 includes a slide 15 for the firmware to slide suspended and a conveying channel 16 connected to the output end of the slide 15, and the slide 15 is provided with a primary conveyor belt 17 on opposite sides for driving the firmware to slide along the slide 15, and the bottom end of the conveying channel 16 is provided with a secondary conveyor belt 18, and the discharge port at the bottom end of the hopper 19 is connected to the feed end of the slide 15, and the slide 15 and the conveying channel 16 are arranged horizontally.

[0041] Among them, the width of the horizontal slide 15 is between the lower bottom diameter and the upper bottom diameter of the firmware, the input end of the secondary conveyor belt 18 extends to the output end of the horizontal slide 15, and the bottom end of the firmware suspended in the slide 15 is in contact with the secondary conveyor belt 18. After the firmware 9 in the hopper 19 enters the slide 15, because the sliding width is between the lower bottom diameter and the upper bottom diameter of the firmware, the firmware 9 will be suspended in the slide 15 with the big end facing up and the small end facing down. The firmware 9 moves along the slide 15 and enters the conveying channel 16 under the conveying action of the primary conveyor belt 17. There is a speed difference in transmission between the primary conveyor belt 17 and the secondary conveyor belt 18. The speed difference determines the order of the firmware at the exit of the slide 15. Under the action of inertia, the firmware entering the conveying channel 16 can be in two postures, one of which is with the big head facing forward and the small head facing backward, and the other is with the small head facing forward and the big head facing backward, thereby realizing the directional ordering of the firmware so that it meets the connection requirements with the filter base rod 8.

[0042] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 It can be understood that a pair of conveying rollers parallel to the slideway 15 are provided at the discharge port of the hopper 19, and the discharge port of the hopper 19 is in an inverted cone shape, so as to facilitate the gathering and output of the fixture 9. The gap between the pair of conveying rollers is larger than the upper bottom diameter of the fixture 9 and smaller than the height of the fixture. The fixture 9 in the hopper 19 enters the slideway 15 under the guidance of the rotating conveying rollers. This method can ensure that the fixture 9 falls horizontally to the slideway 15 in a manner that the axis is parallel to the slideway 15, and prevent the fixture 9 from blocking the discharge port while ensuring that it falls into the slideway 15.

[0043] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 Specifically, the primary conveyor belt 17 is driven to move by the primary driving member, and the secondary conveyor belt 18 passes through the secondary driving member. The primary driving member includes a primary driving motor 20, a primary driving wheel 21 and a primary driven wheel 22. The primary driving motor 20 is connected to the primary driving wheel 21 by transmission. The two primary conveyor belts 17 are supported by the primary driving wheel 21 and the primary driven wheel 22. The primary driving motor 20 drives the primary driving wheel 21 to rotate, thereby driving the two primary conveyor belts 17 between the primary driving wheel 21 and the primary driven wheel 22 to move in the same direction, so as to realize the movement of the fixed parts along the slideway 15. The secondary driving member includes a secondary driving motor 23, a secondary driving wheel 24 and a secondary driven wheel 25. The secondary driving motor 23 is connected to the secondary driving wheel 24 by transmission. The secondary conveyor belt 18 is supported by the secondary driving wheel 24 and the secondary driven wheel 25. The secondary driving motor 23 drives the secondary driving wheel 24 to rotate, thereby driving the secondary conveyor belt 18 between the secondary driving wheel 24 and the secondary driven wheel 25 to move, so as to realize the movement of the fixed parts along the conveying channel 16.

[0044] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6In actual design, the cross section of the primary conveyor belt 17 can be designed to be circular. In addition, a raw material bin 26 and a quantitative feeder mechanism 31 for lifting the firmware 9 in the raw material bin 26 to the hopper 19 can be set on the frame 1. The quantitative feeder mechanism 31 gradually transports the firmware stored in the raw material bin 26 to the hopper 19. A pneumatic conveyor, a belt elevator or a hopper elevator can be used. An observation window can also be set on the hopper 19 to facilitate observation of the feeding status. A material level detection alarm is provided in the raw material bin 26 to ensure that the firmware in the raw material bin 26 is sufficient.

[0045] In the embodiment of the present application, the quantitative feeder mechanism 31 gradually conveys the firmware stored in the raw material bin 26 to the hopper 19 of the sorting device. The two counter-rotating conveying rollers at the bottom of the hopper 19 rotate under the drive of the speed regulating motor to ensure that the firmware falls into the slide while preventing the firmware from blocking the feed port. The firmware forms a first posture (such as Figure 7 As shown in the figure, the firmware 9 is transported by the primary conveyor belt 17 through the secondary drive wheel 24. The firmware in the first posture forms a second posture under the action of inertia, which is the final sorting posture, because the secondary drive wheel 24 and the primary drive wheel 21 have different speeds. When the secondary conveyor belt 18 is slower than the primary conveyor belt 17, the big end of the firmware faces forward (as shown in the figure). Figure 8 As shown), when the secondary conveyor belt 18 is faster than the primary conveyor belt 17, the small end of the firmware faces forward and finally enters the firmware conveyor tray 3.

[0046] In order to ensure that the filter rod after the firmware is implanted meets the rolling requirements of the original forming cigarette machine 29, two groups of firmware sorting and feeding devices 32 are arranged side by side, and the orientations of the firmware output by the two groups of firmware sorting and feeding devices 32 are opposite. The horizontal conveying channels 16 of the two groups of firmware sorting and feeding devices 32 are connected to the horizontal conveying main belt 28 through two V-shaped horizontal conveying sub-belts 27, and the horizontal conveying main belt 28 is directly connected to the output end of the firmware conveying disk 3. The firmware output by the two groups of firmware sorting and feeding devices 32 is alternately distributed on the horizontal conveying main belt 28. In this way, by controlling the two groups of firmware sorting and feeding devices 32 to work alternately and complete the alternating output of the firmware, the firmware can be alternately arranged in the horizontal conveying main belt 28, and the orientations of the two adjacent firmware are opposite, so that the orientations of any two adjacent firmware in the implanted filter rod are opposite, thereby meeting the rolling process requirements of the original forming cigarette machine 29, and there is no need to improve the existing forming cigarette machine 29. Of course, a firmware sorting and feeding device 32 may also be provided. However, this method cannot meet the process requirements of the original cigarette forming machine 29 because the implanted firmware have the same orientation in the filter rod. Therefore, the original cigarette forming machine 29 needs to be improved.

[0047] Specifically, the filter base rod 8 and the fixture 9 are fixed on the corresponding conveying disc by adsorption and fixation to complete the output, that is, a first negative pressure adsorption port for adsorbing and fixing the fixture 9 in the fixture slot 301 is provided on the fixture slot 301, the horizontal conveying belt 28 is docked with the input end of the fixture conveying disc 3, and the fixture 9 transported by the horizontal conveying belt 28 is adsorbed and fixed in the fixture slot 301 under the adsorption negative pressure provided by the first negative pressure adsorption port, a second negative pressure adsorption port for adsorbing and fixing the filter base rod 8 in the base rod slot 201 is provided on the base rod slot 201, and the first slot 6 and the second slot 7 are respectively provided with the filter base rod 8 and the fixture 9 adsorbed. The third negative pressure adsorption port, when the firmware 9 moves to the output end position of the firmware conveying disk 3, that is, the position of the second paddle 10, the second paddle 10 on the frame 1 connects the firmware 9 to the second slot 7 of the compound disk 4 and fixes it by adsorption through the third negative pressure adsorption port, when the filter base rod 8 moves to the output end position of the base rod conveying disk 2, that is, the position of the first paddle 14, the filter base rod 8 is connected to the first slot 6 of the compound disk 4 under the action of the first paddle 14, and the first negative pressure adsorption port, the second negative pressure adsorption port and the third negative pressure adsorption port are connected to the negative pressure generating system. As for the specific structure of the negative pressure generating system, they are all existing technologies and will not be repeated here.

[0048] It is understandable that the implanting device further includes a forming cigarette machine 29, a forming channel 30 of the forming cigarette machine 29 is located below the gap-eliminating disk 5 and tangent to the output end of the gap-eliminating conveying channel 12, and the fixture 9 and the filter base rod 8 flowing out of the gap-eliminating conveying channel 12 enter the forming channel 30 of the forming cigarette machine 29 to complete the rolling work. Among them, the arc surface of the guide plate 11 is a quarter arc.

[0049] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 This embodiment also provides a filter rod firmware implantation method, the specific process is as follows:

[0050] The quantitative feeder mechanism 31 conveys the firmware to the hopper 19. The firmware 9 in the hopper 19 is sorted by the firmware sorting and feeding device 32 and enters the firmware conveying tray 3 in sequence. The firmware is adsorbed in the firmware card slot 301 of the firmware conveying tray 3. At the same time, the cut filter base rods 8 also enter the base rod conveying tray 2 through the horizontal base rod conveyor belt. The filter base rods 8 are adsorbed in the base rod card slot 201 of the base rod conveying tray 2.

[0051] The firmware delivery tray 3, the base rod delivery tray 2 and the composite tray 4 are operated synchronously and are independently driven by the same servo motor. The firmware and the filter base rod 8 are transferred to the composite tray 4 under the action of their respective paddles and are alternately distributed on the composite tray 4 and adsorbed in the corresponding card slots respectively. The filter base rod 8 and the firmware in the composite tray 4 are then transferred to the gap elimination tray 5 through the disc type.

[0052] The filter base rods 8 and the firmware in the gap eliminating disk 5 are sequentially transferred to the gap eliminating conveying channel 12. By controlling the rotation speed of the non-gap eliminating disk 5 and the composite disk 4, the gaps between the filter base rods 8 and the firmware are eliminated to ensure that there are no gaps between the filter base rods 8 and the firmware in the gap eliminating conveying channel 12. The filter base rods 8 and the firmware after the gaps are eliminated are rolled into finished filter rods in the forming channel 30 of the forming cigarette making machine 29.

[0053] The present embodiment also provides a filter rod and a cigarette filter tip, in which the above-mentioned firmware is implanted using the above-mentioned filter rod firmware implantation device, and the cigarette filter tip is made using the above-mentioned filter rod, in which the firmware is implanted. Because both ends of the firmware are in uniform contact with the filter material, when the firmware is squeezed by external force, the outer periphery of the bottom concave end is broken, so that the aqueous flavor can be released in a direction from the outer periphery of the concave end, and the aqueous flavor drips and infiltrates the filter fibers at the concave end in a circumferential direction, thereby increasing the filtering effect.

[0054] The above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the embodiments here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
