A valve for free-flowing media, such as a glue valve, with a valve housing, and with a closure member, such as a valve tappet, which is movable in the valve housing by means of an electromagnet and which bears with a closure piece on a valve seat in the closed position of the valve and which sits at least partially in a continuous interior of a one-piece coil carrier on which the windings of a coil of the electromagnet are wound, and having two terminal receivers for a dosing unit and a valve lift adjustment unit with an elongate abutment part which is arranged at least in part in the interior of the coil carrier and which limits a movement of the closure member in the direction of the valve lift adjustment unit, with the valve lift adjustment unit being is secured on the coil carrier.

Valve for free-flowing media, in particular glue valve

A valve for free-flowing media, in particular a glue valve, with a valve housing, and with a closure member, in particular a valve tappet, which is movable in the valve housing by means of an electromagnet and which bears with a closure piece on a valve seat in the closed position of the valve and which sits at least partially in an in particular continuous interior of a preferably one-piece coil carrier on which the windings of a coil of the electromagnet are wound, and with a valve lift adjustment unit with an elongate abutment part which is arranged at least in part in the interior of the coil carrier and which limits a movement of the closure member in the direction of the valve lift adjustment unit, with the valve lift adjustment unit being is secured on the coil carrier.

A valve arrangement for applying fluid media, in particular glue, to surfaces, comprising a plurality of individual modules detachably connected to form a row, wherein in the row and between the adjacent individual modules is respectively formed a dividing plane, in which the respectively adjacent individual modules bear one against another, and at least one dividing plane is assigned a heating member for warming the valve arrangement, preferably a plurality of or all dividing planes are respectively assigned a heating member, which is seated in appropriate, mutually opposing receptacles, arranged to both sides of the dividing plane, of the two adjacent individual modules, and cooperates in such a way with those walls of the individual modules which delimit the receptacles that relative movements of the two individual modules in at least one spatial direction are limited or prevented.

Valve arrangement for applying fluid media to surfaces

A device and a method for manufacturing an item of packaging for a group () of smokable articles (), in particular cigarettes, having a wrapping, preferably an inner wrapping, of, in particular, a thin packaging material, such as paper, tinfoil or the like, in which a material web () of the packaging material is severed into individual blanks () and in which the article groups () to be wrapped are in each case wrapped with the individual blanks (). Flavoring and/or aromatic portions () for the smokable articles are applied to the packaging-material web (), which flavoring and/or aromatic portions (), after application, are at least in regions reduced in their height by a processing means, preferably in that they are spread flat and/or pressed flat by the processing means ().

Method and device for producing a package for a group of smokable articles

The valve, in particular glue valve, consists of a valve housing () and of a plug unit () fitted thereto. The two parts are assembled separately, with connecting clips () being connected to the plug unit () and, when the plug unit () is fitted onto the valve housing (), being connected to the latter, namely to the coil core (), via clamping members.

Valve, in particular glue valve

A method for operating a gluing system () for gluing blanks for producing and/or packaging cigarettes or other smokable objects, in which the blanks are conveyed along glue valves () of the gluing system (), in which case, in order to control and/or regulate the glue valves (), a superordinate master controller () respectively transmits values of at least one control and/or regulation parameter to individual controllers () which are assigned to the glue valves (), are subordinate to the master controller () and are each connected to the superordinate master controller () via a suitable data connection, the subordinate controller () using said values to control and/or regulate the glue valve () assigned to it.

Method for operating a gluing system

A valve for processing glue or other media, the valve having magnets, in particular permanent magnets, that are used for actuating a closure member (). Two individual magnets () located opposite one another are provided, at least in a region which is in contact with the medium or glue, with a protective layer or covering (), which is preferably designed as a cap and consists of titanium, other metal or plastics material, in order to protect the magnets () against the effects of the medium.
