Abstract

A perforated cigarette capable of automatically adjusting tar content comprises a tobacco section and a filter tip and is characterized in that a perforated area is arranged on filter tip tipping paper, and the distance between the lower edge of the perforated area and the tail end of the end, close to the tip, of the filter tip is 0.5-1.5 cm; three protruding edges are arranged around the circumference of the filter tip and located on the top of the punching area, the middle of the punching area and the lower portion of the punching area respectively, and 2-6 punching block areas are arranged in the punching area and distributed along the circumference of the filter tip. The cigarette filter has the advantages that the different punching block areas are arranged on the circumference of the filter tip, so that the dilution degree of smoke can be adjusted according to the depth of the filter tip contained in the mouth of a user and the holding position of the user, and the requirements of different users are met. Meanwhile, a user can conveniently perceive the number of the blocked ventilation holes through the protruding edges in the punching area, and the user can conveniently adjust the ventilation holes autonomously.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tobacco processing, in particular to a perforated cigarette capable of automatically adjusting the amount of tar. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, in response to calls for reducing tar and harm, cigarette manufacturers have implemented a variety of technical measures to lower the tar content of cigarettes. The most significant method for reducing tar is filter perforation and ventilation. Through technical means, the tar content of thicker cigarettes can be reduced to 5mg. For mild cigarette users, low-tar or even ultra-low-tar cigarettes can satisfy their nicotine needs. However, for some heavy smokers, low-tar cigarettes cannot meet their nicotine needs, often leading to compensatory smoking, which runs counter to the original purpose of low-tar cigarettes. Furthermore, due to different smoking habits, some vents may become blocked during the puff process, resulting in actual smoke content exceeding the nominal content, affecting the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a perforated cigarette with adjustable tar amount, thereby automatically adjusting the tar release amount of the cigarette to meet the needs of different groups of people.

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is achieved by adopting the following technical solutions:

[0005] A perforated cigarette capable of self-regulating tar content comprises a tobacco segment and a filter tip, wherein: a perforated area is provided on the filter tipping paper, the lower edge of the perforated area being 0.5-1.5 cm away from the end of the filter tip near the mouth; and three ridges are provided around the circumference of the filter tip, located respectively at the top, middle, and bottom of the perforated area.

[0006] Furthermore, 2-6 perforated block areas are provided in the perforated area and distributed along the circumference of the filter tip.

[0007] Furthermore, the punched area can be of any shape, such as a rectangle, triangle, circle or polygon.

[0008] Furthermore, the height of the ridge is 0.2-0.8 mm.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model include: by providing different perforated areas around the filter circumference, the degree of smoke dilution can be adjusted according to the depth of the filter held in the mouth and the position of the user's grip, thus meeting the needs of different users. Furthermore, the ridges in the perforated areas allow the user to easily sense the degree of blockage in the ventilation holes, facilitating user self-adjustment. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0014] In the figure: 1. Punching area, 1-1. Punching block area; 2. Raised ridge. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings (embodiments):

[0016] like Figure 1-4 A perforated cigarette capable of automatically adjusting tar levels comprises a tobacco segment and a filter. The filter tipping paper includes a perforated area 1, with the lower edge of the perforated area 0.5-1.5 cm from the near-mouth end of the filter. Three ridges 2 are arranged around the circumference of the filter, located at the top, middle, and bottom of the perforated area. Within the perforated area 1 are two to six perforated blocks 1-1, distributed along the circumference of the filter.

[0017] Example 1

[0018] like Figure 3 The tipping paper has two rectangular perforations 1. When packaged on a filter, these perforations appear 180° apart. If the user's lips cover these perforations 1 during a puff, the cigarette produces a thicker smoke with a high tar content. Rotating the cigarette 90° exposes the two rectangular perforations 1, resulting in a lighter smoke with a lower tar content.

[0019] Example 2

[0020] like Figure 2 The tipping paper has three triangular perforations. If the user holds the filter longer during a puff, more vents will be blocked, resulting in a thicker smoke with a higher tar content. If the user holds the filter shorter, fewer vents will be blocked, resulting in a lighter smoke with a lower tar content.

[0021] Example 3

[0022] like Figure 4 The tipping paper's perforated area is ergonomically designed. When wrapped around the filter, it's positioned where the user's index, middle, and thumb grip the cigarette during a puff, completely blocking the ventilation holes. This results in a thicker smoke with a high tar content. Rotating the cigarette 90° fully exposes the ventilation holes in the three perforated areas, resulting in a lighter smoke with a lower tar content.
