The invention relates to a method for the continuous production of infusion bags, in particular for tea, by depositing single substance quantities (3) on a filter paper web (2) and forming a tube as well as forming individual chambers (6), which are closed on all sides and at least contain one substance quantity (3), respectively, and which are attached to a carrier material (12). According to the invention, the chambers (6) are formed by a transverse seam (9), which simultaneously comprises the rear seam (9a) of the one infusion bag and the front seam (9b) of the succeeding infusion bag and a perforation (9c) interposed between both seams (9a and 9b), at which the infusion bags are separated in course of the process.
Method for the continuous production of infusion bags, in particular for tea, by depositing single substance quantities (3) on a filter paper web (2) and forming a tube as well as forming individual chambers (6), which are closed on all sides and at least contain one substance quantity (3), respectively, and which are attached to a carrier material (12),
Apparatus for the continuous production of infusion bags, in particular for tea, comprising a dosing device(1, 1a) for substance quantities (3) and a device for forming a tube, which is divided into single chambers (6) by transverse sealing,
Infusion bag, in particular for tea, formed by at least one chamber (6) containing a substance quantity of the substance to be leached out and being produced by transverse sealing of a tube made of filter material, and a section of a carrier material web (12) connected to the chamber (6), characterized in that the transverse seams (9) of chamber (6) and/or carrier material (12) are welded to the chamber by ultrasound.
