Definitions

  • My invention relates to improvements in machines for making cigarettes, and more particularly in the apparatus for feeding the tobacco.
  • a rotary drum has been provided the bearings of which are stationary relatively to the tobacco receptacle, and which is provided with spikes or needless adapted to be retracted into the drum while rotating the same, a plurality of rollers being provided within the receptacle.
  • a rotary drum provided with spikes has been provided above the feed roller, for supplying a layer of tobacco of uniform thickness and compactness.
  • the object of the improvements is to provide a machine of this class in which a roller carrying spikes or needles is adapted to be moved to or fro across the surface of the tobacco in horizontal or substantially horizontal direction with its axis parallel.
  • Fig. 1 is a diagrammatical sectional elevation showing the feeding mechanism
  • Fig. 2 is a liagram showing the electric circuit controlling the signalling device.
  • a drum or roller provided with spikes or needles 16 is rotatably mounted with its shaft 14 on two parallel levers 13 and 13 keyed to a rock shaft 20, the said roller or drum being parallel to a roller 1 provided with needles and rotating in the direction of the arrow as and a roller 2 rotating in the direction of the arrow 3 and cooperating with the roller 1 for stripping the tobacco therefrom.
  • the rock shaft is mounted by means of brackets 12 on a suitable part of the machine for example on aboard 6 rockingly mounted on a shaft 11.
  • the said board is adapted to be rocked to and fro from a shaft 9 through the intermediary-of a crank 8 and a link 7, the said shaft being adapted to be rotated the direction of the arrow 2 means of suitable gearing such as a pulley
  • the spikes or needles 16 of the drum or roller 15 are inclined rearwardly as com pared to the direction of the'rotation of the drum indicated in Fig.
  • an arm 29 is'secured by means of which the rocking movement of the levers 13 downwardly is I controlled and preferably the said arm 29 is shiftably mounted for regulating the extent of the downward movement of the levers 13.
  • a brush 30 is mounted which is disposed substantially radially of the roller 15 and extends an arm 37 secured to or made integral with the lovers 13 or 13 a weighted body 31 is mounted.
  • contacts 33 and 34 are fixed to an insulating block 31 which are included in a circuit comprising a battery 38 and a signalling device 35, the said contacts 33 and 3 1 being normally out of ento the surface of the drum.
  • the crank 8 and the link 7 rocking movement is imparted to the board 6 so that the roller 15 is moved to and fro and substantially in horizontal direction across the surface of the tobacco and simultaneously it is rotated in the direction of the arrow o.
  • the brush 3O combs any tobacco which might stick between the spikes of the roller 15 from the said spikes, and it prevents transmission of the tobacco from the left hand part of the receptacle to the right and to the drum 2.
  • the roller 15 bears on the surface of the tobacco with a pressure controlled by the weighted body 31 adapted to be shifted on the arm 37, and the arm 29 limits the downward movement of the said roller as the tobacco is removed from the receptacle. If the roller has sunk to a certain position the weighted body 31 engages the contact 33 and forces the same into engagement with the contact 34 and to the signalling apparatus such as a lamp 35.
  • a gate or the like controlling the supply of tobacco to the receptacle may be provided.
  • Means for supplying tobacco to cigarette making machines comprising a rotary drum located above the tobacco being supplied and adapted to loosen said tobacco, and means for moving said drum across the surface of said tobacco substantially in a hori zontal direction.
  • Means for supplying tobacco to cigarette making machines comprising a receptacle for tobacco, a rotary drum located above the tobacco and adapted to loosen the latter, a frame carrying said drum and rockably mounted on one of the walls of said receptacle, and means for rocking said wall in a direction to cause the drum to move across the surface of the tobacco.
  • Means for supplying tobacco to cigarette making machines comprising a receptacle having one wall thereof movable, a rotary drum located above the tobacco being supplied and adapted to loosen said tobacco, a frame carrying said drum and rockably mounted on said movable wall, means for rocking said wall in a direction to cause the drum to move'across the surface of the tobacco, and a weighted body connected with said frame and shiftable thereon for regulating the pressure of the drum on the tobacco.
  • Means for supplying tobacco to cigarette making machines comprising a receptacle having one wall thereof movable, a rotary drum located above the tobacco being supplied to loosen the same, a frame Carrying said drum and rockably mounted on said signature.
