Abstract

In an apparatus for filling cigarette tubes in particular filter cigarette tubes, comprising a casing having a tobacco compressing chamber disposed in the longitudinal direction thereof, a coverlike press bar associated with this tobacco compressing chamber and located in a cover, that covers the casing housing and hinged on a shaft, as well as an ejector pusher for introducing a pressed plug of cut tobacco into a cigarette tube, that is intermittently retained by clamping on a short socket, the clamping device is intended to be embodied such that the clamping operation is completely divided from the filling operation, wherein the functional reliability of the individual elements of the filling apparatus is increased without making the apparatus less convenient to use. This is attained by providing spring-loaded clamping element 10 for a cigarette tube placed on a short socket 9, the clamping element 10 being independent of the cover 6 and pusher 7, by a manual pushbutton 2 is urged laterally against the short socket 9. As a result, when filling the cigarette tube the user automatically actuates the clamping element 10, and the clamping operation is ended by the user at the end of the filling operation.
