Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for filling cigarette paper tubes, this device comprising a base plate, two side walls carried by this base plate, one of the side walls being provided with a tubular part projecting towards the outside and fitting into the cigarette paper tube to be filled, the other side wall being provided with an opening opposite the above-mentioned tubular part, at least one roller supported for rotation in these side walls, a strip flexible at least partially surrounding this roller and a pusher which can extend through the abovementioned opening and having a length such that it can push a tobacco rod outside the aforementioned tubular part.
  • the devices of the kind in question are intended to facilitate this filling.
  • Such a device is known from DE-C-246 061.
  • the base plate is provided in its upper face and on the rear side with a longitudinal recess.
  • the flexible strip is fixed by its ends at the rear and at the front to the base plate and passes over the single roller.
  • This roller is movable between a rear position in which it is located above the hollow, the flexible strip then forming in the hollow a trough for tobacco, and a front position in which it is on the front side relative to the part tubular carried by the side wall. In this latter position, a tobacco rod is trapped by the flexible strip behind this roller just opposite the tubular part through which this rod can be pushed out using the pusher after this roller has been released.
  • the tobacco is essentially compressed into a rod but is very little rolled, which does not give an ideal filling.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a device for filling cigarette paper tubes making it possible to obtain better quality filling with well-rolled tobacco.
  • the device comprises, apart from the aforementioned roller, three other rollers mounted for rotation in the side walls, two rollers of the four being located below the other two, one of the upper rollers being mounted movably between the side walls.
  • a position close to the other upper roller and a position remote from this roller and the flexible strip is a tube surrounding all four rollers, the tube with which these rollers can be rotated, the circumference of the tube being such that it forms, when the movable upper roller is in its aforesaid remote position, one between the upper rollers making it possible to receive the quantity of tobacco with which the cigarette paper tube is to be filled and that it forms, when the movable upper roller is in its above-mentioned close position, a smaller cavity between the four rollers, this smaller cavity extending in the extension of the tubular part sudite, the device further comprising a cover rotatably mounted about a longitudinal axis of rotation between the side walls, this cover comprising a longitudinal wall directed downwards and being in the closed position of the cover
  • a device for rolling tobacco comprising four rollers rotatably mounted between side walls, two rollers being located below the other two and one of the upper rollers being mounted movably relative to the other upper roller, and comprising a tube flexible surrounding all four rollers is well known from DE-A-2 943 136.
  • This known device does not include a pusher for pushing the roll of tobacco rolled in the flexible tube outside this tube in a cigarette paper tube. If such a pusher would be used, tobacco would be pushed out of the flexible tube between the parts of the tube lying between the close upper rollers, especially if tobacco is already between these parts.
  • the longitudinal edge of the cover closes the longitudinal trough in which the tobacco is located not while the tobacco is being rolled (the cover is then in the open position) but afterwards, while one is pushing tobacco rolled using the pusher in the cigarette paper tube, preventing tobacco from coming out between the upper rollers.
  • the cover comprises at least one side wall, which, in the closed position of the cover, is located outside along the side wall carried by the base plate and provided with the part tubular above, and rests with a firm contact on this tubular part or on the cigarette paper tube threaded on this tubular part.
  • This embodiment makes it easier and safer to hold the cigarette paper tube in place on the tubular part. while pushing the rolled tabec into the tube.
  • the circumference of the flexible tube is such that when the movable upper roller is in its above-mentioned close position, it forms together with the delimitation by the longitudinal wall of the cover in the closed position, a tube whose diameter is at least 30% smaller than the inside diameter of the cigarette paper tube to be filled.
  • the stuffed tobacco rod that is pushed into the cigarette paper tube expands and completely fills the tube by exerting slight pressure on the inner wall of the tube. This expansion gives the ideal filling with the ideal tobacco density.
  • the device according to the figures comprises a base plate 1.
  • the base plate 1 carries the side walls 2 and 3, in which two large rollers 4 and 5 are rotatably supported, as well as two small rollers 6 and 7 below the large rollers.
  • the small rollers 6 and 7 have the same diameter which is at least 250% less than the diameter of the large rollers 4 and 5 which also have the same diameter.
  • the roller 5 can, thanks to slots 8 and 9 in the side walls 2 and 3, be brought from a rear position, close to the roller 4, position in which the roller is indicated by the reference numeral 5, to a front position and therefore remote from the roller 4 in which the roller is indicated by the reference numeral 5a.
  • the movable upper roller 5 is in its rear position, the axes of the large upper rollers 4 and 5 are situated vertically above the axes of the small lower rollers 6 and 7.
  • the distance between the axes of the small lower rollers 6 and 7 is between 9.5 and 10.5 mm.
  • rollers 4, 5, 6 and 7 are surrounded by a tube or pipe 20 made of flexible material, the circumference of which is large enough to surround not only the four rollers, but also also form a longitudinal trough whose diameter allows the quantity to be received. of tobacco necessary for a cigarette when the movable roller 5 is in its position 5a remote from the roller 4.
  • the length of the rollers 4, 5, 6 and 7 and of the flexible tube 20 is at least 20% greater than the length of a finished cigarette.
  • the side walls 2 and 3 are each provided on the outside with a tubular part 10 or 11 which is conical on the outside. These tubular parts 10 and 11, directed outwards, are located one opposite the other.
  • a pusher 12 which has at one end a disc 13 which serves as a stop, while the other end 14 is rounded, passes through the tubular part 11 and can penetrate with its rounded end 14 into the other tubular part 10.
  • the internal circumference of the tubular parts 10 and 11 is roughly tangent to the external circumference of the small lower rollers 6 and 7.
  • the largest external diameter of the conical tubular parts 10 and 11 is equal to the internal diameter of the cigarette paper tube 21 to be filled.
  • the length of the pusher 12 is chosen such that the disc 13 at one end meets the tubular part 11 when the opposite rounded end 14 is level with the free end of the tubular part 10.
  • the side walls 2 and 3 further carry a cover 15, which has a longitudinal wall 16 and side walls 17 and 18.
  • the cover 15 is designed so that the longitudinal wall 16 comes to be located during closing, between the rollers 4 and 5, while the side walls 17 and 18 rest firmly on the tubular parts 10 and 11.
  • the circumference of the flexible tube 20 is such that it forms, when the movable roller 5 is in its position close to the roller 4, between the four rollers 4,5,6 and 7, together with the delimitation by the longitudinal wall 16 of the cover 15 in the closed position, a tube whose diameter is equal to or less, and preferably at least 30% smaller, than the inside diameter of the cigarette paper tube 21 to be filled.
  • the device according to the invention operates as follows:
  • the pusher 12 is first put in its extended position in which the rounded end is in the tubular part 11.
  • the cover 15 is then opened.
  • the roller 5 With the cover 15 open, the roller 5 is pulled to the front position 5a, so that the tube 20 forms between the rollers 4 and 5, a longitudinal trough in which there is arranged, well distributed, the tobacco necessary for a cigarette. Then, we bring the roller 5 back to its original rear position and we animate it with the thumbs, a clockwise rotation. The tube 20 then moves the rollers 4, 6 and 7 and turns the tobacco into a rod. After approximately five rotational movements, a cigarette paper tube 21 is threaded onto the tubular part 10 and the cover is closed.
