Definitions

  • the cigarettes passing out from the cigarette guide groove are, as is welldmmvn, conveyed to a rece1ving apparatus, and it cigarettes with mouthpieces are dealt with, the receiving apparatus is provided with means for arranging the same into two piles, so that all cigarettes of each pile extend with their mouthpieces in the same direction.
  • This ctaive'ying apparatus consists oi? a driven body whose speed is adjusted to be in a certain'relation to that of the cigarette rod.
  • This conveyor can be constructed in various ways, as for instance, it may consist of a drum formed on its circumference with pockets or chambers, each to receive a cigarette.
  • the same may also consistof a revoluble disc on the circumference of which gripping means may be pro vided, whereby the cigarettes, after a certain rotation of the disc, will be transported to a suitable place.
  • the speed of the cigarette rod is changed, the speed of the con veyer must naturally be correspondingly changed, so that the pockets or grippers may be properly positioned. in relation to the advanced cigarette rod.
  • This adjustment can be simply effected by operatively connecting the driving means of the conveyor to that of the rod forming device, whereby are tomatically a change of the speed of the cigarette rod will cause a corresponding change of the speed of the conveyor.
  • This invention has for its object to provide means for bringing about the described adjustment, which means consist of a differential gear inserted in the driving mechanism of the conveyor in such a manner that when increasing the speed of the cigarette red, the motion of the conveyer will be temporarily retarded, until its receiving or gripping means are properly positioned for receiving the cigarettes, and vice versa, when decreasing the speed of the cigarette red, the conveyor will be accelerated.
  • the differential gear arranged in a certain relation to the starting lever of the machine, so that when the machine is set for a new speed, the conveyor will be correspomlingly accelerated or retarded.
  • Fig. 1 shows the combination of the new driving mechanism for the conveyor and the driving mechanism of the machine
  • Fig. 2 is a section on line 2-2 of Fig. 1 on reduced scale
  • Fig. 3 is a vertical cross-section on line 3-3 oi.
  • Fig. 1 also 011 reduced scale.
  • the shaft h is constantly driven by wellknown means as tor instance, gears, trom the driving mechanism (not shown) oft the machine, and is supported in a bearing Z. From this shaft rotation is to be imparted to the coaxially arranged shaft 2' supported in the bearing m, and from which the cigarette conveyor such as drum 1) is driven which is adapted to receive the cigarette passing out from the cigarette guide groove G.
  • the wing 4) consists of a lever formed with a ring-shaped extension '2) engaging the cylindrical part of the bearing Z and capable of oscillating thereon.
  • This lever on its free end, carries a roller 0 bearing on a cam b fixed on a spindle k rotatively 'mounted in a bearing 8 and carrying a hand lever a.
  • This lever may be the starting lever of the machine, so that by turning the spindle k, the machine is set into operation or the speed of the machine is regulated. Thus for instance, by turning the spindle is, the driving belt 10 of the machine may be shifted from an idle pulley 11 onto a.
  • the shaft i drives the conveyer i. e. the apparatus adapted to receive the cigarettes from the guide of the latter and to deposit the same at a suitable place.
  • the parts are so arranged relative to one another, that on the turning of the hand lever (in to increase the speed of the machine, the member (Z will be oscillated, so as to temporarily retard the rotation of the shaft a, while, when the lever (a is turned to decrease the speed of the machine, the rotation of the shaft i will be temporarily accelerated.
  • a cigarette rod machine the combination with means for changing the speed of said machine and a 1O( guide, of a rotary cigarette conveyer adapted to receive the cigarettes from said rod guide, means for revolving said conveyor, said means including a differential mechanism and an oscillatory member oieratively connected thereto and means intervening between said oscillatory member and said speed changing means whereby while the speed of the machine is increased the speed of said couveyer will be temporarily reduced and vice In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
