CIGARETTE-CUTTING MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters :Patent No. 515,730, dated February 2'?, 1894.
Application filed May 2,1893. Serial No. 472.666. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Beit known that I, GEORGE FRANK CARLIE, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York,have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Machines for Cutting Cigarettes, Oheroots, die., of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings,in ro whichn Figure 1 is a vertical sectional View of my improved machineg'hig. 2 aplan View thereof, and Fig. 3 a detail view of portions of the conveyer. A
I5 This invention has for its object the provision of an improved and simple machine for rapidly and accurately cutting or trimming oit the loose surplus ends of cigarettes, especially that class rolled entirely ot tobacco ze and having their ends open. For the Want of a practical, reliable and accurate machine these cigarettes have heretofore beenv generally trimmed by hand, which method is very slow and consequently expensive.
z5 The nature of the invention fully appears in the course of this specilication.
In the drawings, A designates the stand or support of the machine, which is hollow and is adapted to receive the trimmed ends of 3o the cigarettes; B the sides ot' the machine frame, suitably formed and connected; O the cutter-shaft jcurnaled in the frame and carrying two circular cutters, spaceda distance apart equal to the length of the cut cigarette;
D D' pulleys secured on shafts d journaled in the frame in front of and parallel to the cuttcushaft, the periphery of the pulley D coming quite close tothe edges of the cutters and the other being located on the extreme 4o forward end of the frame; and E is an endless chain conveyer mounted on the pulleys D D and adapted to convey the cigarettes to the cutters and hold them while being cut and then convey them away and deposit them in a suitable receptacle arranged near the machine. This conveyer is of a width equal to the length of the cut cigarette and is constructed of a series of links pivoted together, each of the links having a transverse U- shaped groove e formed in it to receive and 5o retain one cigarette. lhe edges of the conveyer are square and smooth so that as it passes over pulley D it will lit properly hetween the edges ot' the rotarycutters and permit the cigarettes to be nicely trimmed. The grooves conline and support the cigarettes during the cutting operation and thereby prevent injury to their Wrappers. To confine the cigarettes in the grooves et the conveyor as they pass around the pulley D,a 6o curved plate F is employed, which is secured at its upper end to a transverse holt f above the pulley, from which point the plate curves around behind and under the pulley, close to the conveyer. The lower part of the guard Iplate F rests on a transverse holt f under the pulley and from thence extends downwardly and forwardly a suitable distance, as
at f, to carry the trimmed cigarettes away. To separate the ends cut ed from the finished 7o cigarettes, au inclined plate or board G is employed, this hoard extending across the machine between the cutters and the shaft of pulley D and provided with an opening large enough for the chain and guard-plate and the rear portion of the roller to pass through.
In operation, the conveyer carries the cigarettes into the machine and as they pass around the pulley the rapidly revolving cutters si- 8o multaneously cut oft both ends of the cigarettes without injuring the same in the least. The cut ends drop into the receptacle A below the machine, while the finished cigarettes are conveyed out again through the opening in the division board and allowed to slide down the inclined partf" of the guard-plate.
By this machine the cigarettes are very rapidly trimmed without the slightest injury to their Wrappers, and the cutends are pre- 9o vented from commingling with the cigarettes.
I do not desire to be confined to the exact construction shown and described as the same may loe varied without departing from the invention.
I-Iaving thus fully described my invention, what I claim is The combination of a frame, a shaft oar- Tying a pair of separated rotary cutters, a. sageof the guard-plate and eonveyeigsubstangrooved conveyer adapted to Work nicely betially as and for the purpose described. 1o tween the forward edges of the cutters, a In testimony Whereofafx my signature in curved guard-plate F supported between the presence of two Witnesses.
