Definitions

  • This invention relates to the manufacture of cigarettes and is particularly concerned with the manufacture ofv filtertip cigarettes.
  • the invention has among its objects to provide an improved apparatus for converting ordinary cigarettes into filter tip or mouthpiece cigarettes of improved quality and finish at high speed while reducing the wastage due to various causes in the apparatus heretofore proposed for producing such cigarettes, more specifically, to provide improved means for extracting a quantity of tobacco from the mouthpiece end of cigarettes in such manner as to avoid any substantial disintegration or breaking up or otherwise damaging of the tobacco such as would render the same unfit for further use, and to provide means for ensuring the completev clearanceof the mouthpiece end of the cigarettes to the required depth for the reception of filter tips or mouthpieces.
  • the invention further has among its objects to provide an improved intermittently rotatable drum or carrier by which the cigarettes are carried successively into position for the operation thereon of tobacco-extracting and other devices, and to provide improved means for gripping the cigarettes located in the chambers in the drum or carrier.
