- the side walls of the collar 26 are by fold lines 34 connected together so that the side walls of the collar 26 along the fold lines 34 can be folded.
- the collar 26 according to Fig. 4 differs from the collar 26 according to Fig. 3 in that the collar 26 there also extends slightly into the region of the rear side 31.
- the collar 26 is approximately U-shaped in cross-section with two legs 35 in the region of the rear side 31, which extend substantially only in the region of the respective peripheral or outer cigarettes of the cigarette group 11. The cigarettes located between the marginal cigarettes are not covered by the collar 26 in the area of the rear side 31.
- the embodiment according to Fig. 5 differs from the embodiment according to Fig. 4 in that the collar 26 extends substantially over the entire rear side 31 of the cigarette group 11.
- the two-sided legs 35 are formed so wide that free side edges of the legs 35 terminate with a short distance to each other.
- Another special feature is a top-side semicircular recess 36 in the area with the back 31, which facilitates the removal of cigarettes.
- a recess 36 corresponding projection 37 in the lower edge of the collar 26 is formed for waste-free production of the collar 26th
- the collar is designed as a closed sleeve in total. Apart from recesses 32, 36 as in the embodiment according to Fig. 5 The collar 26 extends circumferentially closed over all upright sides of the cigarette group 11. Only on the underside of the sleeve in the region of the end face 28 is open.

- an actuating tab 18 is correspondingly limited by means of a weakening line 20.
- a label 42 is externally attached to the single-layer film for the outer sheath 12 and glued thereto. Accordingly, in this case, the opening tab 14 and the corresponding removal opening 15 is formed in the film for the outer sheath 12, whereas the operating tab 18 is limited in the label by a line of weakness 20.
- the procedure is preferably such that the outer wrapper 12 is provided as a continuous material web, wherein perforations 43 directed transversely in the material web are applied at intervals.
- the material web is thus initially processed without separation along the perforation lines 43, so that a continuous packing chain 44 is formed, wherein the perforation lines 43 are each mounted between two transverse sealing seams 39, 40 between adjacent packages 10.
- the packing chain 44 can be easily separated along the perforation lines 43.
- a hinge-lid pack 45 It is also conceivable to pack the above-described pack 10 in a cigarette pack made of cardboard, for example in a hinge-lid pack 45.
- a hinge-lid pack 45 This is in Fig. 14 shown.
- the pack 10 with closed outer wrapper 12 is packed in the hinge-lid pack 45 of cardboard, which has dimensions corresponding to the size of the cigarette group 11.
- the transverse seam 39 in the region of the upper end face 27 is folded into the region of the back 31 so that the Cover 46 of Hinge Lid Pack 45 can be closed.
- the package 10 protrudes out of the box part 47 of the hinge lid pack as a sealing block, the dimensions being selected so that the opening means 13 of the outer casing 12 or the picking lugs 48 are exposed.
- Fig. 15 and 16 show a first embodiment of the production of the packing chains 44 at a glance.
- Cigarettes for the cigarette group 11 are held in two groups of upright shafts 50 of a cigarette magazine 51, and by means of a respective slider 52 as a cigarette group 11 (Cigarette block) pushed out of the cigarette magazine 51.
- the two groups of cigarettes 11 are inserted by the sliders 52 via a bridge 53 into pockets 54 of a subsequent revolver 55.
- the revolver 55 is cyclically driven in rotation about a horizontal axis and arranged transversely to the direction of the slide 52.
- the turret 55 has regularly distributed over the circumference of the revolver 55 arranged pockets 54 for receiving in each case a group of cigarettes 11.
- the cigarette groups 11 are inserted in the region of a 12 o'clock position of the revolver 55 in this and in the region of a 6 o'clock position, ie after rotation of the revolver 55 by about 180 °, pushed out of the revolver 55 and transferred to a transfer turret 56 ,
- the transfer turret 56 connects directly to the turret 55 and is also cyclically driven in rotation about a horizontal axis.
- the transfer turret 56 also has pockets 57 distributed uniformly over the circumference.
- the transfer turret 56 is driven in opposite directions to the turret 55 and arranged in a plane parallel thereto.
- the transfer turret 56 serves to bring together the groups of cigarettes 11, each having a collar 26. For this purpose, first the collars 26 are inserted into the pockets 57 of the transfer turret 55 and subsequently each a cigarette group 11.
- the collars 26 are first separated from a continuous web 58.
- the material web 58 is fed by transport rollers 59 to a cutting device 60, which has a knife roller 61 and a counter roller 62 on different sides of the material web 58.
- collar 26 are separated from the web 58 and separated by a subsequent pair of transport rollers 59. Thereafter, the collar 26 are brought in the region of a belt conveyor 63 at a distance from each other and thus isolated.
- the collar 26 are transported transversely after the singling in the region of a transverse collar web 64.
- the collar 26 are arranged lying flat and are conveyed away in the region of a punch 65, with which the inner collar collar 26 successively removed from the collar track 64 and pressed by pivoting the punch 65 by 90 ° in a mold pocket 66. In this case, the collar 26 is folded into the U-shape.
- the folded collar 26 is then conveyed by a slider 67, which acts on the mold pocket 66 in a pocket 57 of the cyclically operated turret 56 and passed to this.
- the revolver 58 is advanced one position so that the groups of cigarettes 11 can be inserted into the pockets 57 along this horizontal plane and united with the collars 26 held therein ,
- the cigarette group 11 can be pushed out with herumschreibem collar 26 in a horizontal plane.
- another slider 68 is used.
- the cigarette groups 11 After pushing out the cigarette groups 11 with collar 26 they are wrapped in the outer sheath 12.
- the corresponding film web 23 is unwound from a reel 69 and passed through a shuttle memory 70. Thereafter, the film web 23 is guided over a group of deflection rollers 71 in an area above the transport path of the ejected from the revolver 56 cigarette groups 11.
- the cigarette groups 11 are transported in this section of the system along a for example limited by guides conveyor line.
- the advance of cigarette groups 11 can be as in Fig. 15 and 16 shown carried by driver 72 of endless conveyors 73, which may be arranged below the conveyor line and the cigarette groups 11 with collar 26 frontally or back detect and transport in the conveying direction.
- the film web 23 is gradually struck around the groups of cigarettes 11, so that a kind of continuous tube is formed and folding flaps for the longitudinal sealing seam 38 abut each other.
- the longitudinal sealing seam 38 is then formed by sealing elements 74 arranged below the conveying path.
- sealing members 81 for the transverse sealing seams 39, 40 and optionally for the attachment of the perforation 43 follow sealing members 81 for the transverse sealing seams 39, 40 and optionally for the attachment of the perforation 43.
- Fig. 17 and 18 show in a schematic representation alternative displacement method or corresponding devices.
- Fig. 17 shows this with reference to packages 10 with a U-shaped collar 26 according to Fig. 3
- Fig. 18 In contrast, the production of packages 10 with a collar 26 in the form of a sleeve according to Fig. 6 shown.
- Both solutions consistently have a pocket chain conveyor as the central organ. For reasons of clarity, the two individual solutions will be discussed separately below.
- Central organ of the device according to Fig. 17 is an endless conveyor 75, which is guided over pulleys 76 and outside pockets 77 has.
- the pockets 77 serve to receive a respective collar 26 and a cigarette group 11.
- the pockets 77 are distributed over the entire circumference of the endless conveyor 75 at regular intervals from each other.
- the pockets 77 are transverse to the transport direction of the endless conveyor 75 frontally open to the input and output of the collar 26 and cigarette groups 11.
- the pockets 77 are otherwise formed substantially closed with the exception of one parallel to the input and Ausschubides the cigarette groups 11 and collar 26th extending slot 78.
- the collars 26 are first separated from a continuous material web 58 by means of a cutting device 60 and singulated. Thereafter, a folding of the narrow sides 30 takes place and the insertion into a pocket 77.
- the structure of the device for separating and feeding the collar 26 may be formed as in the embodiment described above, so for example as shown in FIG Fig. 15 shown and described accordingly.
- the folding of the collar 26 can take place via fixed folding switches along the transport path of the collar 26 or, for example, by means of a forming pocket 66 and an associated punch 65 as described above. In principle, however, other known from the prior art folding devices come into question.
- For insertion of the collar 26 in the pocket 77 is preferably a slide, not shown used.
- the groups of cigarettes 11 are fed into the pockets 77 with the collar 26 arranged therein.
- the groups of cigarettes 11 are pushed out of shafts 50 of a cigarette magazine 51 by means of a slide 52 and pushed into the pockets 77 with a collar 26 located therein offset in height by another slide 79.
- Fig. 17 how out Fig. 17 can be seen, several cigarette magazines 51 are arranged side by side in the present case, so that a corresponding number of groups of cigarettes 11 can be inserted simultaneously or sequentially in the pockets 77. This takes place during a brief stoppage of the endless conveyor 75. As out Fig. 20 it can be seen that the pockets 77 are dimensioned so that in each case a collar 26 and a cigarette group 11 are more or less exactly recording.
- the ejection takes place in the region of a downwardly lying conveying run of the endless conveyor 75. Accordingly, the cigarette groups 11 are pushed out with collar 26 in the reverse relative position compared to the feed from the endless conveyor 75. For this reason, the collars 26 are also supplied so as to be disposed below the cigarette groups 11 as they are supplied Fig. 20 shows. It is conceivable that the cigarette groups 11 with collar 26 takes place in the region of the same conveying run, in which the cigarette groups 11 and collar 26 are also supplied. In this case, it may be necessary to supply the collar 26 turned.
- the collar 26 are formed as already described as closed sleeves, which are held flat folded in a stack 80.
- the collar 26 are removed individually in the region of the bottom of the stack 80 and erected by pivoting the side walls of the collar 26 to each other. This is done during a straight, horizontally directed transport in the direction of the pockets 77 of the endless conveyor 75th

Darüber hinaus kann sich der Kragen zusätzlich in den Bereich der Rückseite der Zigarettengruppe erstrecken (U-förmig). Wird der Kragen so ausgebildet, dass er sich komplett über nahezu die gesamte Rückseite der Packung erstreckt, so ist die Zigarettengruppe im Wesentlichen komplett an allen Seitenflächen durch den Kragen abgedeckt. Die Stirnseiten werden jedoch nicht vom Kragen abgedeckt.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention it is provided that the collar surrounds the package contents C-shaped or U-shaped or on all side surfaces, and that the collar is not arranged in the region of end faces of the package. Preferably, the collar may extend over almost the entire front of the cigarette group and additionally in the area of the narrow sides of the cigarette group (C-shaped). In addition, the collar may additionally extend into the region of the back of the cigarette group (U-shaped). If the collar is formed so that it extends completely over almost the entire back of the pack, the cigarette group is substantially completely covered on all side surfaces by the collar. However, the front sides are not covered by the collar.
Wenn eine Quersiegelnaht im Bereich der Oberseite des Packungsinhalts gegen die Außenumhüllung im Bereich der Rückseite des Packungsinhalts umgefaltet wird und dort mittels eines Klebers fixiert ist, kann die so beschaffene Packung auch in einer Zigarettenschachtel positioniert sein als Dichtblock.If a transverse sealing seam in the area of the upper side of the package contents is folded over against the outer envelope in the region of the rear side of the package contents and fixed there by means of an adhesive, the package thus produced can also be positioned in a cigarette box as a sealing block.

Die Erfindung befasst sich mit Packungen 10 für Zigaretten als Packungsinhalt, wobei die Packungen 10 als Schlauchbeutelverpackungen ausgebildet sind. Der Packungsinhalt, in Form einer Zigarettengruppe 11, wird also durch eine Außenumhüllung 12 aus Folie umgeben. Die Folie ist aufgrund ihrer Zusammensetzung vorzugsweise feuchtigkeits- und aromadicht. Darüber hinaus ist das Material thermisch siegelbar, sodass Faltlappen durch Wärme und Druck miteinander verbunden werden können.The invention relates to
Eine Besonderheit der Außenumhüllung 12 ist ein mehrfach benutzbares Öffnungsmittel 13. Dieses besteht aus einer Öffnungslasche 14, die eine Entnahmeöffnung 15 in einer innenliegenden Folie bzw. Innenlage 16 freilegt. Die Öffnungslasche 14 ist vorliegend durch eine U-förmige Schwächungslinie 17, nämlich eine Perforation, eine durchgehende Stanzlinie oder andere geeignete Materialschwächung begrenzt. Beim Öffnen der Packung 10 wird die Öffnungslasche 14 mit Hilfe eines Betätigungsorgans, nämlich einer Betätigungslasche 18, in die Öffnungsstellung (
Die Betätigungslasche 18 ist Teil einer Außenlage 19 der Außenumhüllung 12. Die Betätigungslasche 18 ist von einer im Wesentlichen U-förmigen Schwächungslinie 20 begrenzt. Des Weiteren ist die Betätigungslasche 18 vorzugsweise vollflächig durch Kleber mit der (Außenseite der) Öffnungslasche 14 verbunden. Die Betätigungslasche 18 ist größer als die Öffnungslasche 14 und überdeckt diese mit einem vorzugsweise an drei Seiten gebildeten (U-förmigen) Verschlussbereich 21. Dieser liegt an einem die Entnahmeöffnung 15 umgebenden Randstreifen 22 der Innenlage 16 als Träger der Öffnungslasche 14 an. Die Betätigungslasche 18 ist mindestens im Verschlussbereich 21 mit einem dauerhaft wirkenden Kleber versehen.The
Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß
Das Folienstück 24 (und die Innenlage 16) weist die Öffnungslasche 14 auf. Das Folienstück 24 hat größere Abmessungen als die Öffnungslasche 14 und als die Betätigungslasche 18, erstreckt sich nämlich bis in den Bereich von seitlichen Rändern der Folienbahn 23 für die Außenumhüllung 12. Auch freie Enden der Schwächungslinie 17, 20 befinden sich innerhalb des Bereichs des Folienstücks 24. Die durch die Betätigungslasche 18 erfassbare Öffnungslasche 14 ist demnach hier zweilagig ausgebildet, besteht einerseits aus einem entsprechenden Teil der Innenlage 16 und andererseits aus einem entsprechenden, gleich großen Teil des Folienstücks 24.The film piece 24 (and the inner layer 16) has the
Eine Leimschicht 25 aus Dauerkleber ist zwischen der Außenlage 19 und dem Folienstück 24 angeordnet. Der Randstreifen 22 für die Verbindung der Betätigungslasche 18 mit der Innenlage 16 bzw. dem Folienstück 24 ist (ausschließlich) im Bereich des Folienstücks 24 gebildet. Fertigungstechnisch kann so vorgegangen werden, dass das Folienstück 24 vollflächig mit dem Dauerkleber versehen und so zwischen den Lagen 16, 19 der Folienbahn 23 positioniert wird.A
Ein Bereich der Betätigungslasche 18 ist als Anfasszipfel 48 zum Ergreifen der Betätigungslasche 18 ausgebildet. Es handelt sich dabei um einen unteren Endbereich der Betätigungslasche 18, die nicht mit einem dauerhaft wirkenden Kleber versehen ist zur Bildung einer leimfreien Zone 49.A region of the
Als Besonderheit ist ein Kragen 26 vorgesehen, der die Zigarettengruppe 11 wenigstens teilweise umgibt. Der Kragen soll aus einem wärme- und druckbelastbaren Material bestehen, beispielsweise aus Karton.As a special feature, a
Der Kragen 26 umgibt die Zigarettengruppe 11 unmittelbar und wird mit dieser zusammen in die Außenumhüllung 12 eingehüllt. Der Kragen 26 stellt damit sozusagen einen Innenzuschnitt dar.The
Allen Ausführungsbeispielen gemäß

Zum Einhüllen der Zigarettengruppe 11 mit darum gelegten Kragen 26 wird die Außenumhüllung 12 schlauchartig um Zigarettengruppe 11 mit Kragen 26 herum gelegt und im Bereich der Rückseite 31 durch eine in Längsrichtung der Packung 10 verlaufende Längssiegelnaht 38 in diesem Bereich verschlossen. Weiterhin werden im Bereich der Stirnseiten 27,28 Quersiegelnähte 39, 40 hergestellt, um die Außenumhüllung 12 zu schließen. Die Quersiegelnähte 39, 40 sind mit Abstand zu den Stirnseiten 27, 28 der Zigarettengruppe 11 angeordnet. Während die Quersiegelnähte 39, 40 gegenüber der Zigarettengruppe 11 abstehen, wird die Längssiegelnaht 38 umgelegt gegen die Außenumhüllung 12.For wrapping the
Die Außenumhüllung 12 wird so positioniert, dass sich das Öffnungsmittel 13 bzw. die Öffnungslasche 14 und die Betätigungslasche 18 im Bereich der Ausnehmung 32 des Kragens 26 befindet, sodass durch Öffnen der Öffnungslasche 14 über die Betätigungslasche 18 die Entnahmeöffnung 15 in der Außenumhüllung den Zugriff auf die Zigarettengruppe 11 ermöglicht.The
Die Längssiegelnaht und die Quersiegelnähte 39, 40 sind als Flossennähte durch thermisches Siegeln von Faltlappen der Außenumhüllung 12 gebildet.The longitudinal sealing seam and the transverse sealing seams 39, 40 are formed as fin seams by thermal sealing of folding flaps of the
Eine Besonderheit besteht darin, dass die Quersiegelnaht 39 so ausgebildet wird, dass sich die Schwächungslinien 17, 20 für die Öffnungslasche 14 bzw. die Betätigungslasche 28 im Siegelbereich befinden bzw. freie Enden dieser Schwächungslinien 17, 20. Auf diese Weise wird verhindert, dass die Packung 10 beim Öffnen versehentlich zu weit geöffnet und damit zerstört wird.A special feature is that the

Bei der Herstellung der Packungen 10 wird vorzugsweise so vorgegangen, dass die Außenumhüllung 12 als fortlaufende Materialbahn zur Verfügung gestellt wird, wobei in der Materialbahn in Abständen quergerichtete Perforationslinien 43 angebracht werden. Die Materialbahn wird zunächst also ohne Auftrennen entlang der Perforationslinien 43 verarbeitet, sodass eine fortlaufende Packungskette 44 gebildet wird, wobei die Perforationslinien 43 jeweils zwischen zwei Quersiegelnähten 39, 40 zwischen benachbarten Packungen 10 angebracht wird. Zum Vereinzeln der Packungen 10 kann die Packungskette 44 einfach entlang der Perforationslinien 43 aufgetrennt werden. Auf die Herstellung der Packungen 10 wird noch nachfolgend eingegangen.During the production of the
Es ist auch denkbar die vorstehend beschriebene Packung 10 in einer Zigarettenpackung aus Karton zu verpacken, beispielsweise in einer Hinge-Lid-Packung 45. Dies ist in
Der Übergaberevolver 56 schließt unmittelbar an den Revolver 55 an und ist ebenfalls taktweise drehend um eine horizontale Achse angetrieben. Auch der Übergaberevolver 56 weist gleichmäßig über den Umfang verteilte Taschen 57 auf. Der Übergaberevolver 56 ist gegensinnig zum Revolver 55 angetrieben und in einer zu diesem parallelen Ebene angeordnet.The
Der Übergaberevolver 56 dient zum Zusammenführen der Zigarettengruppen 11 mit jeweils einem Kragen 26. Zu diesem Zweck werden zunächst die Kragen 26 in die Taschen 57 des Übergaberevolvers 55 eingeführt und nachfolgend jeweils eine Zigarettengruppe 11.The
Die Kragen 26 werden zunächst aus einer fortlaufenden Materialbahn 58 abgetrennt. Hierzu wird die Materialbahn 58 durch Transportwalzen 59 einer Schneideeinrichtung 60 zugeführt, die eine Messerwalze 61 und eine Gegenwalze 62 auf unterschiedlichen Seiten der Materialbahn 58 aufweist. Mittels der Schneideeinrichtung 60 werden Kragen 26 aus der Materialbahn 58 abgetrennt und durch ein anschließendes Paar von Transportwalzen 59 vereinzelt. Danach werden die Kragen 26 im Bereich eines Gurtförderers 63 auf Abstand zueinander gebracht und somit vereinzelt.The
Die Kragen 26 werden im Anschluss an die Vereinzelung quergerichtet abtransportiert im Bereich einer quergerichteten Kragenbahn 64. In der Kragenbahn 64 sind die Kragen 26 flach liegend angeordnet und werden in den Bereich eines Stempels 65 abgefördert, mit dem die Innenkragen Kragen 26 nacheinander aus der Kragenbahn 64 entnommen und durch Schwenken des Stempels 65 um 90° in eine Formtasche 66 eingedrückt werden. Dabei wird der Kragen 26 in die U-Form gefaltet.The
Der gefaltete Kragen 26 wird dann durch einen Schieber 67, der auf die Formtasche 66 einwirkt in eine Tasche 57 des taktweise betriebenen Revolvers 56 gefördert und an diese übergeben.The folded
Nachdem die gefalteten Kragen 26 in die Tasche 57 des Revolvers 58 eingeführt sind, wird der Revolver 58 um eine Position weiterbewegt, sodass die Zigarettengruppen 11 in dieser Station entlang einer horizontalen Ebene in die Taschen 57 eingeschoben und mit den darin bereitgehaltenen Kragen 26 vereinigt werden können.After the folded
Nach weiterer Drehung des Revolvers 58 um 180° kann die Zigarettengruppe 11 mit darumgelegtem Kragen 26 in horizontaler Ebene ausgeschoben werden. Hierzu dient ein weiterer Schieber 68.After further rotation of the
Nach dem Ausschieben der Zigarettengruppen 11 mit Kragen 26 werden diese in die Außenumhüllung 12 eingewickelt. Die entsprechende Folienbahn 23 wird von einer Bobine 69 abgewickelt und durch einen Pendelspeicher 70 hindurchgeführt. Danach wird die Folienbahn 23 über eine Gruppe von Umlenkrollen 71 in einen Bereich oberhalb des Transportwegs der aus dem Revolver 56 ausgeschobenen Zigarettengruppen 11 geführt. Die Zigarettengruppen 11 werden in diesem Abschnitt der Anlage entlang einer beispielsweise durch Führungen begrenzten Förderstrecke transportiert. Der Vorschub der Zigarettengruppen 11 kann wie in
Während des gemeinsamen weiteren Transports der Folienbahn 23 und der Zigarettengruppen 11 mit Kragen 26 wird die Folienbahn 23 allmählich um die Zigarettengruppen 11 geschlagen, sodass eine Art fortlaufender Schlauch gebildet wird und Faltlappen für die Längssiegelnaht 38 aneinander liegen. Die Längssiegelnaht 38 wird dann durch unterhalb der Förderstrecke angeordnete Siegelorgane 74 gebildet. Im weiteren Transportweg folgen dann Siegelorgane 81 für die Quersiegelnähte 39, 40 sowie gegebenenfalls für die Anbringung der Perforationslinie 43.During the joint further transport of the

Die Taschen 77 sind quer zur Transportrichtung des Endlosförderers 75 stirnseitig offen, zum Ein- und Ausschub der Kragen 26 und Zigarettengruppen 11. Die Taschen 77 sind im Übrigen im Wesentlichen geschlossen ausgebildet mit Ausnahme eines parallel zur Ein- und Ausschubrichtung der Zigarettengruppen 11 und Kragen 26 verlaufenden Schlitzes 78.The
Wie im vorherig beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel werden zunächst die Kragen 26 von einer fortlaufenden Materialbahn 58 mittels einer Schneideeinrichtung 60 abgetrennt und vereinzelt. Danach erfolgt eine Faltung der Schmalseiten 30 sowie der Einschub in eine Tasche 77. Der Aufbau der Vorrichtung zum Abtrennen und Zuführen der Kragen 26 kann dabei wie im vorstehend beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel ausgebildet sein, also beispielsweise gemäß Darstellung in
Nach Einschub des gefalteten Kragens 26 werden die Zigarettengruppen 11 in die Taschen 77 mit den darin angeordnetem Kragen 26 zugeführt. Die Zigarettengruppen 11 werden mittels eines Schiebers 52 aus Schächten 50 eines Zigarettenmagazins 51 ausgeschoben und höhenversetzt durch einen weiteren Schieber 79 in die Taschen 77 mit darin befindlichem Kragen 26 eingeschoben.After insertion of the folded
