- Cigar-Bunches Be it known that I, RICHARD A. BRIGHT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Buffalo, in the Stateof Rhode Island, have invented a new and useful Improvement in the Method of Making Cigar-Bunches, of which the following is a specification.
- the object of my invention is to provide cigarfillers so prepared that in the formation of bunches therefrom for the manufacture of cigars said bunches can be made to contain the required amount of tobacco at the several sections of the bunch with the exercise of much less skill on the part of the maker than is required in the ordinary method of manufacture; and to this end my invention consists in arranging a layer of transverselyarranged filler-leaves of suitable depth, and having a length of filler about equal to the length of the cigar to be formed, and also arranging a similar layer of fillers having a shorter length, and, after placing one of the said layers upon the other, separating from the combined layers a quantity of the combined fillers sufficient to make a single cigarbunch, in which the fillers of the long and short lengths will be in their proper proportion and in their proper relation to each other in their arrangement lengthwise of each other to fill out the tapering body of the cigar, as required.

METHOD OF MAKING ClGAR-BUNCHES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 451,749, dated May 5, 1891.
Application filed November 17, 1890. Serial No. 371,740- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, RICHARD A. BRIGHT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Providence, in the Stateof Rhode Island, have invented a new and useful Improvement in the Method of Making Cigar-Bunches, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to provide cigarfillers so prepared that in the formation of bunches therefrom for the manufacture of cigars said bunches can be made to contain the required amount of tobacco at the several sections of the bunch with the exercise of much less skill on the part of the maker than is required in the ordinary method of manufacture; and to this end my invention consists in arranging a layer of transverselyarranged filler-leaves of suitable depth, and having a length of filler about equal to the length of the cigar to be formed, and also arranging a similar layer of fillers having a shorter length, and, after placing one of the said layers upon the other, separating from the combined layers a quantity of the combined fillers sufficient to make a single cigarbunch, in which the fillers of the long and short lengths will be in their proper proportion and in their proper relation to each other in their arrangement lengthwise of each other to fill out the tapering body of the cigar, as required.
Figure 1 represents a top view of a prepared layer of the long cigar-fillers adapted to carry out my improvement. Fig. 2 represents an end view of the same. Fig. 3 represents a top View of a prepared layer of the shorter fillers, by means of which the desired taper may be given to the bunch. Fig. 4 represents an end view of the same. Fig. 5 represents a top view showing the layer of the shorter fillers arranged upon the layer of the longer fillers to produce cigar-bunches of the desired taper. Fig. v6 represents an end view of the combined layers. Fig. 7 represents a cigar-bunch formed from a section of fillers separated vertically from the end of the combined layers shown in Figs. 5 and 6.
In the accompanying drawings, A, Figs. 1 and 2, represents a layer of transversely-arranged long fillers, which may be prepared either by breaking the filler-leaves, as usual in the manufacture of cigars by hand, or by slightly cutting out their ends in zigzag or other approved form, as set forth in the Letters Patent of the United States No. 398,877, the said fillers being preferably made of about the length of a cigar to be formed, and B in Figs. 3 and 4 represents a similar layer composed of shorter fillers, and after thus preparing the separate layers A and B, I place one of the layers upon the other, as shown in Figs. 5 and 6. The relative quantity of tobacco in each of said layers will determine the amount of fullness or taper in the bunch to be formed, and the relative position of the layer of short fillers, whether in the middle of the layer of longer fillers, as shown in the drawings, or toward either edge of the layer, will serve to determine the shape of the cigar to bemade by locatingthefullness at either end of the cigar or at the middle portion, as de-. sired, and after arranging the layers one upon the other, as shown, I separate from the end of the combined layers a section of the combined long and short fillers sufficient to form a single cigar, preparatory to rolling the binder thereon to hold the fillers in proper tapering form, as shown in Fig. 7. The prepared layers of fillers A and B so arranged and combined can be advantageously employed either for the manufacture of cigars by hand or by machinery, the combined layer 0 (shown in Figs. 5 and 6) being adapted to be fed uniformly forward to a knife of gate, by means of which the proper quantity of fillers to make a tapered cigar-bunch, Will be severed from the layers.
I claim as my invention The method of making tapered long-filler cigar-bunches, which consists in providing a layer of transversely-arranged fillers of suitable depth and of a length about equal to the length of the cigar to be formed, and also providing a similar layer of fillers of shorter length and placing one of said layers upon the other, then separating from the end of the combined layers a quantity of fillers sufficient to make a single cigar-bunch, and putting the binder thereon, as set forth.
