- there the tobacco rod passes through the inlet cone 13 under the action of the suction line conveyor 3 strongly compressed and according to the change in cross-section of the inlet cone in the conveying direction 16 of the Format tape 17 deformed so that it is partially in the the strand guide surface 12 of the format bed 6 enclosed Strand channel can enter.
- strand guide surface 12 In the area of the strand guide surface 12 is adjacent to the format bed 6 as further strand guide means of the inlet fingers 7 with a scraper 25 arranged together with the Strand guide surface 12 of the format bed 6 a Fiber strand further compressing and shaping strand guide forms.
- the scraper 25 is by means of screws 22 or others suitable fasteners on the face of the infeed finger 7 of the format device 4 attached.
- the scraper can also be made in one piece with the enema finger his.
- the scraper consists of a base body 19, the underside of which is designed as a strand guide surface 21 is and in the installation position of the scraper of the strand guide surface 12 of the format bed 6 is opposite, so that both strand guide surfaces 12 and 21 a strand guide channel Include 22.
- the strand guide surface 21 is how the front view of the scraper acc. Fig. 3 shows, concave and aligned with one Strand guide surface 23 on the underside of the Inlet finger 7 is formed. This training the Strand guide surfaces in a known manner Interaction with the further sharing of the S format Deforming the incoming tobacco rod into a cylindrical one Fiber strand while wrapping it Fiber strand with the wrapping material strip 18.
- the schematic section shown in Fig. 2 on the Location A of Fig. 1 shows the run-in finger 7, the one Steel alloy 30 according to the invention comprises, one Solder seam 31 with the steel alloy 30 according to the invention connects the rest of the enema finger 7.
- Well depicted is the strand guide surface 23, which is curved.
