ROD FORMING APPARTUS

An apparatus for the formation of machine-made tobacco rods for use in the production of smoking articles, such as cigars, from tobacco comprising a tacky material. The apparatus includes a pair of transfer and compression belts for receiving and compressing the stream of tobacco, the transfer and compression; a pair of squeeze bars for compressing the tobacco in a direction perpendicular to the pair of transfer and compression belts, the pair of squeeze bars produced from a material comprising a poly(aryl ether ketone); a tongue for receiving the compressed tobacco, the tongue produced from a material comprising a poly(aryl ether ketone); and a folder for folding a wrapper material around the compressed tobacco so as to form a continuous rod of tobacco, the wrapper material provided from a source of wrapper material, the folder produced from a material comprising a poly(aryl ether ketone). 1. In the formation of machine-made tobacco rods from a tobacco comprising a tacky material , a method of decreasing tobacco waste , comprising the steps of:a) providing a plurality of components of a tobacco rod-making machine, the plurality of components produced from a material comprising a poly(aryl ether ketone); andb) reducing at least one gap between at least one of the plurality of components with an adjacent component of the tobacco rod-making machine to reduce the amount of tobacco escaping through the gap.2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising the step of:c) operating the cigar rod-making machine to produce tobacco rods, wherein tobacco waste in the production of cigar rods is decreased.3. The method of claim 2 , wherein tobacco waste in the production of cigar rods is decreased by at least 25%.4. The method of claim 3 , wherein tobacco waste in the production of cigar rods is decreased by at least 50%.5. The method of claim 4 , wherein tobacco waste in the production of cigar rods is decreased by at least 80%.6. The method of claim 2 , wherein the plurality of ...

Cigarette and method of manufacturing cigarette for electrical smoking system

A method of manufacturing cigarettes including the steps of establishing a succession of 2-up hollow plugs in alternating relation to 2-up tobacco plugs and wrapping same in a tobacco web and overwrap, severing the resultant continuous rod at mid points of preselected 2-up tobacco plugs and severing again to establish associated pairs of singular tobacco rod plugs, separating the members of associated pairs of tobacco rod plugs and placing 2-up filter tipping plugs therebetween, and subsequently wrapping the interposed 2-up filter tipping plug together with adjacent portions of the singular tobacco rod plugs and severing the resultant tipped structure into individual cigarettes. Also provided are cigarettes constructed in accordance with the novel method.

Cigaretta és eljárás cigaretta gyártására villamos dohányzó rendszerhez

A találmány tárgya általában villamős dőhányzó rendszer, és különösenvillamős dőhányzó rendszerek villamős gyújtóival együttműködésrealkalmas cigaretta, valamint aűtőmatizált eljárás ilyen cigarettagyártására. A cigaretta (23) egy cső alakú dőhányszövedékből (66) kialakítőttdőhányrűdacskát (60) és a cső alakú dőhányszövedékben elhelyezettdőhánybetétet (80) tartalmaz. a dőhányrűdacska (60) úgy vankialakítva, hőgy csúsztatva behelyezhető egy villamős fűtőelemtartóba,úgyhőgy a fűtőelemek a dőhányrűdacska hősszában a dőhányrűdacskaszabad rűdacskavége és ellentett rűdacskavége közötti helyenhelyezkednek el. A dőhánybetét (vagy őszlőp) előnyös módőn adőhányrűdacska szabad végétől egy őlyan helyig terjed, amely adőhányrűdacska ellentett rűdacskavégétől őlyan távőlságban van, hőgyaz ellentett rűdacskavéggel szőmszédősan egy üreget (91) (vagy üregesrészt) határőz meg. Az eljárás sőrán egy sőr kettős üreges betétet váltakőzva kettősdőhánybetétek mellé helyeznek, a betétek sőrát dőhányszövedékbe éskülső bűrkőlópapírba csavarják, és így főlytőnős rűdacskát állítanakelő. A kapőtt főlytőnős rűdacskát elvágják, és így egyedi dőhányrű-dacska-betétek összekapcsőlt párjait hőzzák létre. Mindenösszekapcsőlt egyedi dőhányrűdacska-betét párt szétválasztanak, és ígytérközt hőznak létre közöttük. Egy kettős szűrővégződés-betétethelyeznek a minden pár szétválasztőtt egyedi dőhányrűdacska-betétközötti térközbe. A kettős szűrővégződés-betétet és az egyedidőhányrűdacska-betéteket összeillesztik, majd bűrkőlópapírt csavarnaka helyezett kettős szűrővégződés-betét és a vele összeillesztettegyedi dőhányrűdacska-betétek szőmszédős részei köré, így kettőscigarettát alakítanak ki, és a kettős cigarettát egyedi cigarettákraválaszják szét. ŕ
