Figure 3 is a section through the feed article of the present invention forms a device for feeding the tobacco, in which a in the direction of Axis of the shape formed long strip of tobacco is cut crosswise, wherein a cigarette is produced which has already been trimmed at both ends and which has the tobacco is not scattered.

The innovation is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, namely shows

Figures 9 and 10 are a section, respectively and a top view of the feed knife assembly.

On a stand α (Fig. 1 to 6) two vertically standing plates bb are arranged, which include between them a 'channel b ¹ , which gradually narrows towards the front and ends in a channel a ¹ , which in the stand α ( Fig. 5) is cut out. The channel b ¹ is delimited at the top and bottom by two belts cc ¹ , which move accordingly on the rollers C ₁ c ₂ C ₃ and c \ c \ c ' _3. The axes

carry cone rollers C ₃

Plates bb

are, for the purpose, and c ¹ regulate too

the tension of the ligaments c
can.

For this purpose, the ends of the axis of the roller C _{3 are arranged} in two jaws e ¹ e ¹ , which are firmly connected to a crosspiece e ² and in the middle of which a screw e ^{3 is} provided, which is in a plate resting on the plates bb e ⁴ sits.

If you turn the screw around in one sense or the other, you can move the crosspiece e ² and thus also the roller C ₃ up and down as you wish.

The ends of the axis of the roller c ' ₃ are mounted in the arms of a fork f ¹ , the threaded pin of which engages with a screw / ² which is mounted in a recess of the stand α. If the screw is given a rotation in any sense, the roller c ' ₃ moves up or down as desired.

The upper band c is also held by a roller ■ c ⁴ and the lower band c ¹ by one or more rollers c ⁵ in order to facilitate the transmission of the movement. The bevel gears dd engage in two other d ¹ d ¹ , which are attached to the vertical shafts gg ¹ , which in turn carry other bevel gears g ² g ² , which mesh with bevel gears h ¹ h ¹ , which the latter are attached to a main axis h . The latter has a fixed and a loose disk at its end, which are not shown in the drawing. The vertical axis g ¹ rests with its lower end in a bearing g ^s , which is arranged on the stand α .

On a pin z, which passes through the stand in the transverse direction, two levers z ' ¹ z' ¹ are arranged, one of which ^{carries a pin z "2} , which moves in a groove of a thumb disk z '³; the thumb disk i ^s is attached to the axis H. The levers are provided at their outer ends with elongated holes in which a cross piece k rests, which is provided with a rod k ¹ , which in turn is in a two-part, with the plates bb connected guide b ² slides.

The rod k ¹ ends in a sleeve A: ' ² (Fig. 9), in which a bolt Z moves up and down ^{under the action of a spring Z 1.}

The pin / has an incision Z ² , in which a small lever Z ^{3 can} engage, which in turn is attached to a small spiral spring Z ⁴ and partially stirs in a recess in the sleeve k ² . This lever Z ³ can come into contact with a rod Z ⁵ , which rod is arranged on the base m of the form m ¹ .

At its lower end, the bolt Z has two pins Z ^B and a plate Z "which can move forward in the channel a ^1. The pins Z ⁶ can (FIG. 1) come into contact with two bolts qq provided with hooks. The latter carry a knife q ^l and move gently in two cylinder-shaped guides q ² q ' ^{2 of} the stand a. The guides include two spiral springs q ^s q ³ , which strive to keep the bolts qq always in the highest position, the stroke being limited by two adjusting rings q ⁱ g ⁴ (FIGS. 7 and 8).

The pins qq have pins q ⁵ ^ ⁵ on which thumbs q ^{ü can} act, which in turn are on the axis of the roller

In addition to band c ¹

band ρ arranged, which runs on the rollers p ^l p , one axis of which is provided with a gear wheel p ³ , which transmits the movement to a similar jj ⁴ , which sits on the axis of the roller c \ , the mediation of the movement through a gear j> ⁵ takes place.

Between the plates bb , at the level of the upper bands c ¹ and ρ, there are two bridges 11 ^{1 in} such a way that the path to the channel a ¹ is not interrupted by any opening.

Finally, a roller o is also provided, which is attached to the axis of a gear ^{o 1} which, by means of a wheel o ^3, moves a gear o ² , the latter being seated on the axis of the roller c ^3.

■ The device works as follows:

As soon as the fixed disk, which is arranged on the axis h , receives a movement from any point, the axis h also rotates and with it the bevel gears Zi ¹ Zj ¹ and the thumb z ³ .

c \ mounted is

a feeder ² The bevel gears h ¹ h ¹ turn the bevel gears g- g ' ² , the axes g ^l g ^l and the wheels d ^l , d} - The latter transmit their motion to the wheels if if and then to the rollers C ₁ C ₂ , c \ c ' ₂ and on the gears o' ² and j? ^4th The latter move accordingly, by virtue of the wheels o ³ and j? ⁵ , the wheels o ¹ and p ³ and further the rollers o ¹ and p ¹ . The bands cc ¹ and ρ are therefore set in motion. If the tobacco is now spread out by hand on the band ρ , it is guided up to the roll 0 and is now advanced into the channel b ¹ between the bands c and c ^1. The bands c and c ¹ gradually press it together and lead it to the channel a ¹ , which fills exactly with the amount of tobacco necessary for a cigarette.

Then the thumbs q ⁶ touch the bolts ^ ⁵ and the rods q are moved down and operate the rod p ^s and the knife q ¹ , which cuts the tobacco.

As soon as this operation is finished, the thumbs q ⁶ leave the bolts ^ ⁵ and the bolts q are lifted up by the action of the springs q ^3:. Then the thumb z ' ³ drives the levers z ¹ z' ¹ forward, the rod ". K ^{1 being} carried along and the sheet metal Z ⁷ , which had moved down together with the knife q ¹ , thereby being held in its lowest position is that the lever Z ³ by means of the spring Z ^{4 is held} in the recess Z ² , so that the sheet V moves along the forward movement of the rod k ¹ in the channel a ¹ and feeds the tobacco contained therein to the form m .

If the rod k ^{1 has} arrived at the end of the path, the lever Z ⁴ strikes the rod Ζ ^δ , whereby the lever Z ^{4 is} pushed out of the recess of the bolt Z. The latter then rises rapidly under the action of the spring Z ¹ ; now the rod k ¹ goes back on the same path under the drive of the thumb z ³ , the sheet metal Z ⁷ moving over the new load of tobacco, which is advanced in the channel a ¹ , without touching it. At the end of the return path, the bolts Z ⁶ come into contact again with the rods qq, in order to be moved down again and pushed forward after the channel a ^{1 has been filled.}

Claims (1)

Patent Claim: i (Cigarette machine in which "the tobacco is guided into a channel by means of roller belts, characterized in that the tobacco is held by a knife q \ which is held by two bolts qq raised by springs q ³ and, when the shaft h is moved, by one on the shaft of the Wheel d located, on the bolt q ^ acting thumb q ^{6 is moved} down, cut across and then the tobacco located in space a ¹ is fed to the mold via a sheet Z ^{7 , which sheet Z 7} is actuated by the rods k \ lever / ¹ and by the thumb disk z ' ³ acting on the thumb i' ² , whereby at the forward movement of the bolts Z is ^{pulled down on the bolt / e} by the hooks of the bolt q and held by the lever Z ^{3 engaging in the recess Z 2} , while at the end of the stroke the lever Z ^{3 , which bumps against the rod Z 5} , is triggered and the bolt Z with sheet Z ⁷ is lifted up by spring Z ¹ , so that when going back the sheet Z ⁷ slides over the tobacco without touching it.
