Abstract
Filter cigarettes with multiplex filter mouthpieces wherein at least one filtering element constitutes an unwrapped filter plug having a reinforced porous peripheral layer are produced in a machine which is equipped with a perforating device for tubular envelopes connecting the mouthpieces to the respective plain cigarettes, or with a device for making holes in the web of wrapping material which is subdivided into uniting bands. The holes are provided in those portions of tubular envelopes which surround the reinforced porous peripheral layers. Filtering elements which constitute unwrapped filter plugs may be disposed at the free ends of the mouthpieces or adjacent to the plain cigarettes.
Claims14
A smokers' product, particularly a filter cigarette, comprising coaxial first and second rod-like sections one of which includes a tobacco filler and a tubular wrapper surrounding said filler, the other of said sections comprising a plurality of coaxial filter plugs at least one of which comprises an unwrapped rod consisting of filter material and having a reinforced porous peripheral layer;
- and a tubular envelope surrounding said other section and that portion of said one section which is adjacent to said other section, said envelope having a perforated portion surrounding said one filter plug.
A method of making smokers' products of the type wherein a rod-like tobacco-containing section is disposed end-to-end with a rod-like filter mouthpiece having several filter plugs which are disposed end-to-end and at least one of which consists of unwrapped filter material having a reinforced porous peripheral layer, comprising the steps of placing the mouthpiece and the section end-to-end;
- perforating a portion of an adhesive-coated uniting band;
- and draping said uniting band around the mouthpiece and around that portion of the section which is adjacent to the mouthpiece, including convoluting the perforated portion of the uniting band around the one filter plug.
A method of making smokers' products of the type wherein a rod-like tobacco-containing section is disposed end-to-end with a rod-like filter mouthpiece having several filter plugs which are disposed end-to-end and at least one of which consists of unwrapped filter material having a reinforced porous peripheral layer, comprising the steps of placing the mouthpiece and the section end-to-end;
- draping an adhesive-coated uniting band around the mouthpiece and around that portion of the section which is adjacent to the mouthpiece;
- and perforating that portion of the draped uniting band which surrounds the one filter plug.
A method of making smokers' products of the type wherein a rod-like tobacco-containing section is disposed end-to-end with a rod-like filter mouthpiece having several filter plugs which are disposed end-to-end and at least one of which consists of unwrapped filter material having a reinforced porous peripheral layer, comprising the steps of placing the mouthpiece and the section end-to-end;
- draping an adhesive-coated uniting band around the mouthpiece and around that portion of the section which is adjacent to the mouthpiece;
- and perforating that portion of the draped uniting band which surrounds the one filter plug, including rolling the product about its own axis and intermittently directing at least one beam of coherent radiation against said portion of the draped uniting band.
A smokers' product, particularly a filter cigarette, comprising coaxial first and second rod-like sections one of which includes a tobacco filler and a tubular wrapper surrounding said filler, the other of said sections comprising a plurality of coaxial filter plugs each consisting at least in part of a filter material other than tobacco and at least one of which comprises an unwrapped rod having a reinforced porous peripheral layer;
- and a tubular envelope surrounding said other section and that portion of said one section which is adjacent to said other section.
A method of making smokers' products of the type wherein a rod-like tobacco-containing section is disposed end-to-end with a rod-like filter mouthpiece having several filter plugs each of which consists at least in part of a filter material other than tobacco, which are disposed end-to-end and at least one of which consists of unwrapped filter material having a reinforced porous peripheral layer, comprising the steps of placing the mouthpiece and the section end-to-end;
- and draping an adhesive-coated uniting band around the mouthpiece and around that portion of the section which is adjacent to the mouthpiece.
