Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of cigarette product design, and particularly relates to a modular heated cigarette filter rod. Background Art

[0002] Cigarettes are a type of tobacco product. Tobacco leaves undergo a process of primary roasting, threshing, re-roasting, and shredding before being rolled into cylindrical products of a specific length and diameter. To smoke, one end of the tobacco leaf is ignited and the other end is inhaled, producing smoke. Consumers experience a certain level of nicotine satisfaction through smoking, and the aroma of the burning tobacco is a key factor in choosing between different brands.

[0003] Originally used as a decorative component for the cigarette's mouthpiece, filters have become an essential component of cigarettes, primarily used to remove tar from inhaled smoke and reduce the discomfort experienced by smokers. Filter materials have also diversified from acetate to include grooved tips, dual-composite tips, activated carbon-filled tips, and more.

[0004] During the development of heated cigarette products, filter rods and their structure are one of the key factors affecting the smoke release of heated cigarettes. Due to the unique properties of heated cigarette products, multiple filter rods are often required to achieve multiple filter rod functions such as smoke cooling, airflow disturbance, and filtration. After the filter rod structure is designed according to product requirements, the multiple filter rods need to be twisted and composited on a filter rod composite machine. The prepared multiple filter rods are combined with tobacco segments to form a cigarette.

[0005] For multiple and various specifications, the composite operation using filter rod composite equipment is tedious and complicated. At the same time, for composite filter rods with many specifications and large quantities of composite base rods and multi-specification structural designs, there are problems of long production cycle and high product R&D cost.
