Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a large-small bead composite bursting bead-free filter rod and a bursting bead implantation system and method thereof, and belongs to the field of tobacco production equipment. Background Art
[0002] Popping beads have become popular in recent years, leading the trend and fashion. They enhance the quality of cigarettes and are loved by many consumers. A popping bead is a small liquid bead embedded in the cigarette filter. It contains liquids containing different flavorings. Smokers can pinch it to release the liquid during smoking.
[0003] There are two main types of popping bead cigarettes currently circulating on the market, one is single popping bead and the other is double popping bead. A single popping bead means there is only one popping bead at the filter tip, while a double popping bead means there are two. In the existing double popping bead cigarette filter rod, the two popping beads are usually of equal size and spaced apart in the axial direction, and the other two popping beads are generally filled with fragrance liquids of different flavors. The disadvantage is that smokers have different personal tastes, some like strong aromas, and some like lighter ones. Popping beads of the same size and different flavors cannot meet the needs of these two groups of people; if the same size popping beads are filled with the same fragrance liquid, although a relatively strong aroma will be produced when they are all squeezed and popped, the overall effect of the operation of pinching the popping beads twice (compacting the filter rod) and the outflow of fragrance liquid at two different points will lead to a significant increase in suction resistance, affecting the smoking experience.
[0004] In addition, some existing double-bursting bead cigarette filter rods are produced in a composite manner, that is, one bursting bead is implanted into different filter rods respectively, and then the two single-bursting bead filter rods are composited together. The process is relatively complicated and the cost is high. Relatively speaking, the cost of the double-bursting bead filter rods that are directly implanted and do not require composite is relatively low. However, the existing equipment for producing double-bursting bead filter rods that do not require composite all implant bursting beads of equal size. When it is necessary to implant two bursting beads, one large and one small, the original implantation equipment will be difficult to remove the beads due to the increased centrifugal force after the size of the bursting beads increases, resulting in the problem of bead leakage. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the structure of the existing equipment. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to overcome the problems existing in the background technology, the present invention respectively loads large popping beads and small popping beads through bead taking plate one and bead taking plate two, and transfers large popping beads and small popping beads at the position docking with the bead planting plate to meet the feeding requirements of the bead planting plate. The centrifugal force is basically maintained at the original size to ensure that the negative pressure bead taking hole can better adsorb and fix the large popping beads when taking beads. With this method, the axial spacing between large popping beads and small popping beads is appropriate, and the axial position tolerance of the popping beads is properly controlled. When smoking cigarettes using the above-mentioned bursting filter rod, smokers can choose to pinch large popping beads or small popping beads according to their personal taste habits.

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the invention clearer, the preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings to facilitate understanding by technicians.
[0026] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the large and small bead-free composite bead filter rod and its bead implantation system and method include a silo 1, a bead taking plate 2, a silo 3, a bead taking plate 4 and a bead planting plate 5. The silo 1 and silo 3 are respectively connected with a bead taking plate 2 and a bead taking plate 4. Bead taking teeth 200 are evenly distributed along the outer circumference of the bead taking plate 2 and the bead taking plate 4. Negative pressure bead taking holes are provided on the bead taking teeth 200. The bead taking plates 1 and 2 are both connected with the bead planting plate 5. Bead planting teeth 500 are evenly distributed on the bead planting plate 5. The bead taking plates 1, 2 and 4 are all connected with motors. The bead taking plates 1 and 2 are respectively loaded with beads along the silo 1 and silo 3. When they reach the position of docking with the bead planting plate 5, the beads are transferred to the bead planting plate 5. The present invention provides a large and small bead composite popping bead-free filter rod. Each filter rod is composed of a plurality of filter rod segments that can be matched with cigarette segments one by one. Each filter rod segment is provided with a large popping bead and a small popping bead at intervals in the axial direction. The diameter of the large popping bead is 1.2 to 2.5 times the diameter of the small popping bead. Figure 1 The popping bead filter rod is composed of 4 filter rod segments, that is, after cutting, four filter rod segments corresponding to the cigarette segments can be obtained. The particle size of the large popping beads is 3.5mm, 4.0mm or 4.2mm, and the particle size of the small popping beads is 2.0mm, 2.5mm or 2.75mm. The large and small popping beads of the above specifications are the sizes of existing commonly used popping beads, ensuring that the conventional large and small popping beads on the market can be used for the production of the large and small bead-free composite popping bead filter rod of the present invention.
[0027] In this embodiment, the particle size of the large popping beads in a filter rod segment can be selected to be 3.5mm, and the particle size of the small popping beads can be selected to be 2.0mm, with the former being 1.75 times the particle size of the latter. In another embodiment, the particle size of the large popping beads in a filter rod segment can be selected to be 4.2mm, and the particle size of the small popping beads can be selected to be 2.0mm, with the former being 2.1 times the particle size of the latter. The large and small popping beads can be loaded with the same fragrance or fragrance, or different fragrances. When loading different fragrances or fragrances, the large popping beads should generally be loaded with ingredients that are less fragrant and evaporate quickly, while the small popping beads should be loaded with ingredients that are more fragrant but evaporate relatively slowly.
[0028] Preferably, the number of bead-picking teeth 200 of the bead-picking plate 2 is 1.1-1.6 times the corresponding value of the bead-picking plate 2-4. The mass of large bursting beads is greater than that of small bursting beads. In order to avoid the increase of centrifugal force due to the increase in mass, the number of bead-picking teeth 200 is increased to reduce the rotation speed of the bead-picking plate 2 and thus reduce the centrifugal force. The overall effect is to ensure that the centrifugal force is basically maintained within the original range, ensure smooth bead retrieval and avoid falling off.
[0029] Preferably, the aperture diameter of the negative pressure bead taking hole of the bead taking convex teeth 200 on the bead taking plate 1 2 is 1.2-2.5 times the aperture diameter of the negative pressure bead taking hole of the bead taking convex teeth 200 on the bead taking plate 2 4. The aperture diameter of the negative pressure bead taking hole of the bead taking convex teeth 200 on the bead taking plate 1 2 is smaller than the particle size of the large bursting beads. The diameter of the large bursting beads is larger, and the corresponding negative pressure bead taking hole should also be increased proportionally to ensure a better bead taking effect.
[0030] The large and small bead-free composite bead-free filter rod and its bead-free implantation method as claimed in any one of the above claims are used, and the implantation method comprises the following steps:
[0031] Step 1: Turn on the motors on the bead tray 1 2, the bead tray 2 4 and the bead tray 5, and the bead tray 1 2 and the bead tray 2 4 rotate, and the bead tray 1 2 and the bead tray 2 4 absorb the large and small popping beads along the hopper 1 1 and the hopper 2 3 respectively.
[0032] Step 2: Take bead plate 1 2, take bead plate 2 4, and rotate bead plate 5. Rotate bead plate 5 to the position of taking bead plate 1 2, take the large bursting beads on bead plate 1 2 and implant them into the gaps between the bead planting teeth 500 on bead planting plate 5, take the small bursting beads on bead plate 2 4 and implant them into the gaps between the bead planting teeth 500 on bead planting plate 5.
[0033] The rotation speed of bead extraction plate 2 is V1 m / min, and the number of bead extraction teeth 200 is n1. The rotation speed of bead extraction plate 24 is V2 m / min, and the number of bead extraction teeth 200 is n2. The rotation speed of bead planting plate 5 is V3 m / min, and the number of bead planting teeth 500 is n3. The diameter of bead planting plate 5 is s times the diameter of bead extraction plate 2, 0.5≤s≤1, where V1·n1 = V2·n2 = 0.5·V3·n3 / s, and n1:n2 = 1.2-1.6. During the parameter configuration process of this embodiment, the number of bead extraction teeth 200 increases by the same multiple that the rotation speed of bead extraction plate 2 decreases to meet the same material feeding requirements for bead planting plate 5. The contribution of rotation speed to the change in centrifugal force is a square relationship, while the contribution of the mass of the popped beads to the change in centrifugal force is a linear relationship.
[0034] The axial spacing between the large and small popping beads is 10-15mm, the axial position tolerance of the popping beads is controlled within ±1.8mm, and the radial position tolerance of the popping beads is controlled within 0.3mm between the forming paper and the popping beads. The large and small popping beads are respectively spaced more than 6mm from the end faces closest to the filter rod segment. The axial position tolerance and radial position tolerance of the popping beads meet the relevant technical standards of China's tobacco industry. The large and small popping beads are at an axial distance of more than 1cm to ensure that they do not affect each other during the squeezing operation. The large and small popping beads are spaced more than 6mm from the end faces of the filter rod segment closest to them to avoid the internal fragrance liquid flowing out of the filter rod when squeezing. In the specific smoking process, smokers can choose to pinch large or small popping beads according to their personal taste habits when smoking cigarettes using the above-mentioned bursting filter rods.
[0035] The bead taking plate 1 2, the bead taking plate 2 4 and the bead planting plate 5 are respectively driven to rotate by their corresponding independent servo motors. The speed of each independent servo motor can be continuously adjusted. The bead taking plate 1 2 and the bead taking plate 2 4 feed the bead planting plate 5. When feeding, the bead taking plate 1 2 and the bead taking plate 2 4 continuously feed the bead planting plate 5 with one bead planting tooth 500 spaced apart. The effect after loading is that on any two adjacent bead planting teeth 500 on the bead planting plate 5, one is a large bursting bead and the other is a small bursting bead.
[0036] The present invention loads large popping beads and small popping beads respectively through bead taking plate one and bead taking plate two, and transfers large popping beads and small popping beads at the position docking with the bead planting plate, which meets the feeding requirements of the bead planting plate. The centrifugal force is basically maintained at the original size, ensuring that the negative pressure bead taking hole can better adsorb and fix the large popping beads when taking beads. With this method, the axial spacing between large popping beads and small popping beads is appropriate, and the axial position tolerance of the popping beads is properly controlled. When smoking cigarettes using the above-mentioned bursting filter rod, smokers can choose to pinch and burst large popping beads or small popping beads according to their personal taste habits. The process is relatively simple and the cost is low.
[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not limiting. Although the present invention has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made in form and details without departing from the scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
