Abstract

982,305. Stripping cigarettes. AMERICAN MACHINE & FOUNDRY CO. Sept. 27, 1961 [Oct. 6, 1960], No. 34614/61. Heading A2C. Tobacco is reclaimed from defective cigarettes by means of a blower which directs a jet of air along the length of the cigarette. Defective cigarettes are placed in a hopper 10, the parts 12, 14 and 16 of which are vibrated. The cigarettes are received by pockets 26 of a conveyer 24 and are carried past a slitting drum 28, to weaken the paper wrapper along its length, to a drum 32 having pins 34 for engaging the end of the cigarettes. When the cigarette is gripped between the conveyer 24 and drum 32 it is in line with a blower 40 which is connected by a hose 42 to a supply of compressed air. The conveyer 24 is provided with orifices 41 through which the compressor acts.
