[0026] The inventors found during the research process that since the acetate fiber bundles of the filter rods in the prior art are arranged roughly in parallel along the same direction and have a simple structure, the interception efficiency of the particulate matter in the smoke is not high.
[0027] In response to this problem, the inventor conducted further research and proposed that the softness of cellulose acetate can be utilized and woven into shape with the help of modern weaving technology, which will make the flow path of smoke in the filter rod longer, thereby making the flow time of smoke in the filter rod longer, and increasing the probability of contact between the particulate matter in the smoke and the fiber bundle, thereby improving the interception efficiency. The interception efficiency of the particulate matter in the smoke is improved, so that the taste of the smoke inhaled into the consumer's body is smoother, thereby improving the consumer experience.
[0028] According to the following Figure 1 and Figure 2 The structures of the filter rod and the cigarette in some embodiments of the utility model are described in detail.
[0029] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The filter rod of some embodiments of the utility model includes a core body 20. The core body 20 includes a braided outer layer 21 and an inner core layer 22. The braided outer layer 21 is formed by winding and braiding a plurality of first strip-shaped wire bundles 211. The braided outer layer 21 has an inner cavity. The inner core layer 22 includes a plurality of second strip-shaped wire bundles 221. Each of the plurality of second strip-shaped wire bundles 221 extends along the axial direction of the filter rod and is arranged in the inner cavity of the braided outer layer 21.
[0030] The core body 20 of the filter rod in some embodiments of the utility model is provided with a braided outer layer 21, which is formed by winding and braiding a plurality of first strip-shaped filament bundles 211, so that the smoke passes through the braided outer layer 21 through the bending path of the braided outer layer 21, thereby prolonging the passing time of the smoke, thereby increasing the probability of contact between the particulate matter in the smoke and the core body 20, and improving the interception efficiency. The interception efficiency of the particulate matter in the smoke is improved, so that the taste of the smoke inhaled into the consumer's body is smoother, thereby improving the consumer experience.
[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the first strip-shaped tow 211 of the braided outer layer 21 is wound and woven to form an inclined or arc-shaped arrangement, thereby slowing down the passage of smoke, increasing the probability of contact between particulate matter in the smoke and the tow fibers, improving the interception efficiency, and making the cigarette smoke taste smoother.
[0032] In some embodiments, the braided outer layer 21 forms an annular structure. A plurality of second strip-shaped wire bundles 221 are arranged in parallel on the inner side of the annular structure.
[0033] like Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments, the braided outer layer 21 is a tubular structure. That is, a plurality of first strip-shaped filament bundles 211 are twisted and wound to form a tubular structure with an inner cavity. Then the inner core layer 22 is arranged in the inner cavity. In this way, while improving the interception efficiency of the particulate matter, part of the smoke can also directly enter the consumer's mouth through the inner core layer 22, effectively avoiding the problem of excessive suction resistance causing a bad consumer experience. The fiber filter element has a loose structure, good air permeability, and a low suction resistance of the filter rod.
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the braided outer layer 21 is braided and wound by a plurality of first strip-shaped wire bundles 211. The inner core layer 22 is formed by a plurality of second strip-shaped wire bundles 221 arranged in parallel. The plurality of second strip-shaped wire bundles 221 all extend along the axial direction of the filter rod and are substantially parallel to each other.
[0035] In some embodiments, the first strip-shaped tow 211 is made of fiber material. The fiber material is opened to form a strip-shaped tow with a smaller diameter, and then the strip-shaped tow is woven.
[0036] The second strip-shaped silk bundle 221 is made of fiber material. Similarly, the fiber material is opened to make a strip-shaped silk bundle with a smaller diameter.
[0037] In some embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the first strip-shaped tow 211 includes at least one of a circle, a heart, a diamond, and a triangle.
[0038] In some embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the second strip-shaped tow 221 includes at least one of a circle, a heart, a diamond, and a triangle.
[0039] The utility model does not limit the cross-sectional shapes of the first strip-shaped wire bundle 211 and the second strip-shaped wire bundle 221, and they can be circular, heart-shaped, diamond-shaped, triangular, etc. The filter rod of the utility model embodiment makes the cross-sectional shapes of the strip-shaped wire bundles diverse, and makes the cross-sectional shapes of the filter rod itself present different styles through weaving and other methods, thereby improving consumers' recognition of cigarettes.
[0040] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, on the cross section of the filter rod, the coverage area of the braided outer layer 21 is larger than the coverage area of the inner core layer 22. In this way, most of the smoke needs to pass through the braided outer layer 21, and most of the particulate matter in the smoke can be intercepted by contacting with the fiber bundles of the braided outer layer 21, thereby improving the interception rate.
[0041] In some embodiments, the cross-sectional area of the first strip-shaped filament bundle 211 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the second strip-shaped filament bundle 221. This arrangement also makes the coverage area of the braided outer layer 21 larger, thereby being able to intercept more particulate matter.
[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the filter rod further comprises a plugging paper 10. The plugging paper 10 is wrapped around the outside of the core 20.
[0043] The filter rod further comprises a molding layer disposed on the core 20. The molding layer is formed by a plasticizer, and the plasticizer is uniformly applied to the core 20 to mold the core 20.
[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, in other embodiments, the filter rod further includes a molding agent disposed on the core 20. The molding agent is applied to the outer surface of the core 20 to shape the core 20. In this embodiment, the molding paper 10 is omitted and the molding agent applied to the surface of the core 20 is directly used, which can simplify the structure of the filter rod.
[0045] The utility model also provides a cigarette, comprising a tobacco shred segment and the filter rod. The tobacco shred segment is connected to the filter rod. The cigarette made by the filter rod of the above embodiments has less particulate matter inhaled by consumers and a smoother smoke taste.
[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the relevant field should understand that the specific implementation methods of the utility model can still be modified or some technical features can be replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the technical solution for protection of the utility model.
