Definitions

  • Thisi nvention relates totobacco compressors for continuous rod cigarette machines, its main object bemg to overcome the dlfiiculties moving wrapper strip size and shape of the tobacco core in the finished cigarette rod, before it enters the rod 3 form.
  • the inventlon consists in certain constructions hereinafter fully described and then specifically set forth in the claims hereunto appended.
  • this object is accomplished by placing a compression unit consisting of rotating side disks eccentrically mounted with respect to the central pressure .wheel in the path of the moving tobacco layer. This causes gradual compression of the tobacco layer to approximately its final shape thereby producing a uniformtobacco core and taking a corresponding amount of off the rod former which tobacco layer to form the cigarette rod this relieving of the cigarette rod former being of great importance in high speed machines.

  • the shaft 11 carries a sprocket 15 which drivesa chain 16 running over a sprocket 17 thus: imparting motion to the driving shaft 18.
  • An. eccentric mount is provided comprising a .swingably mounted arm 19 carried by shaft 11,. and a stationary eccentric 20, having a hub secured in the arm 19 and provided with a bore, in which rotates the driving shaft 18.
  • the tongue 30 of the rod former projects between a the disks 22 and 24, and acts as a scraper and removes the tobacco from thecompressor wheel.
  • the projecting arm 31 of bracket carries: an adjustable screw 32 the end of which bears 'against a boss 33 of the arm 19, thus providing'means for regulating the distance between the compressor wheel and lhthe bottom of the trough 27. .Byadjusting the angular position of thestationary eccentric the clearence between-the compressor wheel 'and the bottom of the trough may be further regulated, whilethe outer iicdisks 22 and 24 remainin their same relativepositionwith respect to the compressorwheel when rotated, said mount including a support and an eccentric engaging said wheel and having a hub engaging said discs and secured to said support.
