METHOD OF FORMING ClGAR-BUNCHES BY EXPANSION.
SFEGIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 730,324, dated une 9, 1903. Application filed August 21, 1902. Serial No. 120,458. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it kn own that I, SAMUEL ILLIAMSON,
a citizen of the United States, residing at Philtral section thereof radially, thus overcoming the defects heretofore produced in the formation of cigars by the method of expansion.
It has been found by experience that when a cigar-bunch is so confined in a shaper it cannot expand longitudinally, that the tobacco only the central section or that containing the largest quantity of tobacco and which forms the principal portion of theicigar that is utilized in smoking is unduly set or cramped, so"
that the best results are not thereby obtained. In experimenting to overcome these defects I have found that perfectv results are had by confining circumferentially the end sections of the cigar-bunch and leaving a portion of its central section free to expand radially, while also leaving the cigar-bunch free to expand longitudinally throughout its entire length. I i
In carrying out my present invention I use a form of shaper differing only slightly from that shown in Fig. 1 of the patent to C. E. Doyle, No. 585,3 l8,issued J one 29, 1897, or from the construction shown in Fig. 14 of my allowed application, Serial No. 107,892, filed May 19, 1902; but these slight diflerences are essential to the accomplishment of the results desired-as, for instance, in the Doyle construction the sections of the shap'er are held against longitudinal movement relative to each other, and thus set or cramp the cigarbnnch, as above explained, and in my abovercferred-to allowed application the cigarbunch is confined circumferentially throughout its entire length, thus cramping it at the vital point or where it should not be cramped, and, further, the flare of the cap andbody in both of the above-referred-to constructions is not sufficient to produce the best results.
Referring to the drawings, Figure l represents a shaper made in two sections forming a body and cap, showing a cigar-bunch therein, the shaper being in section and the body and cap in contact or in the position they assume when first placed over the cigar-bunch; Fig. 2, a similar view showing the body and cap of the shaper as having movedlongitudinally away from each other by reason of the longitudinal expansion of the cigar-bunch; Fig. 3, a section of the body and cap of a shaper of diiferent form for producing the same result, in which gages are utilized to determine the relative positionof the body and cap when first placed over a cigar-bunch; and Fig. 4, a section of a shaper having a cigarbunch therein, illustrating the efiect that such a shaper would have on a cigar-bunch were the cap and body held against free longitudinal movement.
In the drawings, A represents the body and B the cap of the shaper. The upper end of the body is flared to a considerable degree, so as to provide the mouth a, while the lower end of the cap is likewise flared to provide the mouth I).
When the cigar-bunch (indicated by'G) is placed within the body and the cap closed thereover, a'considerable section of the bunch will be leftunconfined, as indicated at D, by reason of the extensive flare in the mouth of both the body and cap,and this unconfined section of the cigar-bunch will therefore be free to expand circumferentially, and as the body and cap are not held'together the hunch is free to expand longitudinally throughout its length. This free movement of the cap relative to the body not only prevents the setting or cramping of the tobacco composing thebunch, but also prevents the crowding of the tobacco during expansion into the unconfined section, which prevents the mar-ring of the shape of the bunch, as would otherwise be the case, as is clearly illustrated in Fig. 4,
where the body and cap are presumed to be held against longitudinal movement relative to each other,and the bunch being held against longitudinal expansion is flared in the recess formed by the flared mouths of the body and cap, producing an unsightly ridge upon the bunch.
It is essential in the carrying out of my present improvement that the flare of the body and cap be gradual, since otherwise there would be a tendency to crease-0r mark the cigar-bunch at the points where the shaper left the unconfined section-as, for instance, if the shaper were constructed as shown in the patent of J. J. Bach, No. 260,638, of July 4, 1882, or even as shown in the Doyle patent above referred to a crease or ledge would be formed upon the bunch, as recognized and clearly illustrated in Fig. 2 in the said Doyle patent.
In Fig. 3 I have shown a different form of shaper from that above described for carrying out my method by sharpening the flare of both the body and cap and providing the mouth of the body or the cap with gage-pins E. These'pins limit the downward movement of the cap and determine the length of the unconfined section upon the cigar-bunch in the same manner as the extended flare of the body and cap above described.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and useful is The method of forming cigar-bunches consisting in confining the end sections of the bunch against radial expansion, leaving the central section free to expand radially, and also leaving the entire bunch free to expand longitudinally.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto affiXed my signature in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
