The invention has for its primary object to provide an improved method of and means for relates to the manufacture of lter tips or like stub porproducing such cigarettes by the application of lter tips or like stubrportions Yto cigarettes as produced, for example, on the continuous rod According to the piece.
According to the invention, moreover, -apparatus for carrying out the method specied comintermlttently movable carrying means y for receiving and holding cigarettes, means for applying strips of paper,
cork or the like o the cigarettes in such manthe tubular mouthpieces so formed. In one embodiment the intermittently movable bands of paper, cork or the like around the ends of the cigarettes. Alternatively, the sleeves or equivalent cigarette-receiving The sleeves may be provided with gripping means such as springs for holding the cigarettes in position in the sleeves and for preventing the rotation of the cigarettes in relation to the sleeves.
The cigarettes may be fed to the intermittently movable carrying means from the continuous rod machine and in order to allow for suicient time interval for the application of the bands of paper, cork or the like, two intermittently movable carriers may -be provided. and the cigarettes may be fed alternately to the carriers by means of an'oscillatable member having two parallel chambers or bores therein. Conveniently, the intermittently movable carrying '31, In Great Britain July 14, 19?*3 5 `(ci. 1er-39) l H II Figure l;

means comprises `an intermittently rotatable amm.
The invention is hereinafter described by Way of example with reference tothe accompanying diagrammatic drawing, in which:,- Y
Figure 1 is Yan end elevation partly in section illustrating one iembodiment of apparatus according to the invention;
YFigure 2 is a sectional plan view on the .line
and
Figure 3 is a sectional plan view on the line III-III,`Figure 1. y
In carrying the invention into effect and with reference to the accompanying diagrammatic drawing, cigarettes are fed into sleeves la in an drum I either from a piece projecting beyond 2, as shown in Figure 3.
effected by yrotating the sleeve la in relation tor the drum l either during movement of the drum from one stage to another, or during the period at which the drum is at rest. For instance, the rotatable sleeves aholding the cigarettes may be caused to rotate by the co-operation of gear wheels lb on the sleeves I a with a fixed rack or with a movable rack or segmental gear wheel according to whether the rotation is to be effected against displacement in the sleeves la. The band 3 of paper, cork or the like is fed into the device 4 through a tangential slot 4a by means of rollers 8 and a guide 9.
In a preferred arrangement, as shown in the drawing, the cigarettes are fed alternately, from a guide 1 leading from a continuous rod machine,
tionary for the effective application of the bands 3. The lter tips l@ or equivalent stub portions may be inserted from any suitable forming mechg A 'A 1,999,911
