Title:
APPARATUS FOR PRODUCING ROD LIKE ARTICLE EQUIPPED WITH GAP IN TOBACCO PROCESSING INDUSTRY
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS5998675
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A fluted drum transports filter plugs and pairs of plain cigarettes in successive flutes past two rollers which cause the cigarettes to move inwardly toward the respective plug. In order to ensure the establishment of a cavity between each cigarette and the respective end of the corresponding plug, each flute contains two distancing elements whose width matches the acceptable width of the cavities. The outermost portions of the distancing elements taper in a direction away from the bottom portions of the respective flutes to allow for convenient introduction of filter plugs and cigarettes which are held by suction during transport past the rollers and on to the station where the groups of coaxial and properly spaced-apart filter plugs and cigarettes are removed from their flutes.
