Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of cigarette manufacturing, and in particular relates to a device for stabilizing particle content in a rod. Background Art

[0002] Composite filter rods are one of the most widely used specialty filter rods in cigarettes both domestically and internationally. Compared to single-structure filter rods, composite filter rods are composed of two or more segments with different structures. These segments can be filled with materials such as particles and powders with different functionalities. This allows composite filter rods to not only selectively adsorb harmful components in smoke but also reduce aroma loss and enhance the smoking experience of cigarettes.

[0003] like Figure 5 As shown, currently, functional materials added to composite filter rods include coffee granules, activated carbon, and kudzu root powder. These materials are applied through a hopper 6 to a tow belt 10 that has been opened to a desired width by an opener 8. The tow belt, under the action of support rollers 7, enters a forming machine 9, where it is rolled and slit into rods (or filter rods) of a specified circumference and length.

[0004] During filter rod (or material rod) production, a particle application module (including a hopper) installed between the opener and forming machine adds particles to the filter rod tow belt according to process standards, producing material rods containing specific particles. During production, particles within the particle application module's hopper fall evenly onto the tow belt, where they are wrapped and carried into the forming machine, where they are rolled into filter rods and finally cut into material rods of equal length. The tow belt has a mesh structure and a certain degree of elasticity. It vibrates when its operating speed changes or when its tension fluctuates. This vibration can cause particles to fall from the tow belt, resulting in a decrease and fluctuation in the particle content of the tow belt, and in turn, produces material rods with unstable or substandard particle content.

[0022] Various exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement of components and steps, numerical expressions and numerical values ​​set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present disclosure.

[0023] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is in no way intended to limit the present disclosure, its application, or uses.

[0024] Technologies, methods, and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the technologies, methods, and equipment should be considered part of the specification.

[0025] In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not limiting. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0026] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4As shown, a material rod particle content stabilization device includes a base and a box body 5; the main body 2 of the base is U-shaped, and the connecting end 1 with the forming machine is in a ring shape; the connecting end is connected to one end of the main body to form the base; the main body includes a first left plate and a first right plate for preventing the silk band from shaking left and right, and rebounding the particles bounced from the silk band to the silk band, and also includes a first top plate for rebounding the particles bounced from the silk band to the silk band; the box body is U-shaped, one end of the box body is fitted with the other end of the main body, and the other end of the box body is in a contraction shape to facilitate accommodating the silk band; the box body includes a second left plate and a second right plate for preventing the silk band from shaking left and right, and rebounding the particles bounced from the silk band to the silk band, and also includes a second top plate for rebounding the particles bounced from the silk band to the silk band; the box body is rotatably connected to the first top plate by a hinge 3 so that the box body can be flipped upward.

[0027] In some embodiments, a handle 4 is provided on the left side of the second left side panel.

[0028] In some embodiments, a screw fitting hole is provided on the connecting end, and a screw passes through the screw fitting hole and is connected to the forming machine to achieve the connection and fixation between the connecting end and the forming machine.

[0029] In some embodiments, five screw fitting holes are provided on the connecting end, three screw fitting holes are provided on the upper portion of the connecting end, and two screw fitting holes are provided on the lower portion of the connecting end.

[0030] In some embodiments, the screw is an M8 screw.

[0031] In some embodiments, one end of the hinge is connected to the top surface of the first top plate, and the other end of the hinge is connected to the top surface of the second top plate, so that the box body can be rotatably connected to the first top plate through the hinge, and the box body can be flipped upward.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, since the box body and the main body of the base are both U-shaped, the accumulation of flying waste and glycerin carried by the silk band can be avoided. The box body is rotatably connected to the base by a hinge. One end of the box body is in a constricted shape, and the entrance of the silk band is set larger, which is conducive to accommodating the silk band. The left and right widths of the other end of the box body are equal to the left and right widths of one end of the main body of the base, which is conducive to the silk band entering the main body of the base and preventing the silk band from being punctured or damaged.

[0033] When working, the box body and the main body of the base are in a fit state to ensure a smooth transition of the filament belt; when cleaning or inspecting, the box body is flipped upward by the handle, wherein the handle is designed to prevent the operator's hands from touching the inside of the box body and dirtying the filament belt.

[0034] During production, the filament belt that has been fully loosened and glycerin-coated by the opener enters the base under the action of the support roller and further enters the forming machine. Under the action of the U-shaped base body and the U-shaped box body, the left and right shaking of the filament belt is suppressed.

[0035] Please note that whether the material rod particle content stabilization device can suppress the up and down shaking of the filament belt depends on the height of the first left plate, the first right plate, the second left plate, and the second right plate. This embodiment does not impose any restrictions here.

[0036] Due to the action of the first top plate of the base body and the second top plate of the box body, the particles bounced from the filament belt will be rebounded to the filament belt. Of course, the above-mentioned first left plate, first right plate, second left plate, and second right plate can also play the role of rebounding the particles bounced from the filament belt to the filament belt.

[0037] Due to the support of the present disclosure, the particles falling from the hopper are not wasted, and the particle content in the material rod is guaranteed.

[0038] The device for stabilizing the particle content of a material rod according to the present disclosure has been described in detail. To avoid obscuring the concept of the present disclosure, some details known in the art have been omitted. Based on the above description, those skilled in the art will fully understand how to implement the technical solutions disclosed herein.

[0039] Although some specific embodiments of the present disclosure have been described in detail through examples, those skilled in the art will understand that the above examples are for illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. Those skilled in the art will understand that the above embodiments may be modified without departing from the scope and spirit of the present disclosure. The scope of the present disclosure is defined by the appended claims.
