Abstract

An apparatus for cutting a wick into fibers, comprising: a plurality of knives mounted on a cutting head, two traction or traction wheels provided with toothed wheels that roll in contact with each other, and a drive system for the cutting head and for the drive wheels, a system that is capable of continually passing a blade between two consecutive pairs of gripping teeth of the driving wheels in rotation; said apparatus characterized in that on one of the driving wheels the clamping faces of the teeth are on a flat surface and on the other driving wheel, which has a smaller number of teeth, the clamping faces of the teeth they are on a conical surface, conical surface that rolls in correct contact with the flat surface of the first wheel; and that the shaft of the cutting head runs parallel to the plane passing through the shafts or shafts of the driving wheels, crossing with the plain wheel tree at an angle of about 45º; and that the blades are located on the periphery of the cutting head in such a way that they run approximately along propellers around the cutting head shaft forming an angle of inclination of about 45º and coinciding the cutting edge of the blades with the tangent line between the conical surface and the flat surface; and by that, in the place where the edge of the blade coincides with the tangent line mentioned above, the surface described by the blades of the blades forms an acute angle with the plane passing through the axes of the driving wheels.
