Title:
APPARATUS FOR FILLING HOUSING TABLE WITH ROD LIKE ARTICLE IN TOBACCO INDUSTRY
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS56134979
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
Apparatus for filling trays with cigarettes has a magazine which contains a supply of parallel cigarettes and the lower end portion of which extends into the interior of an empty tray so that the lower end portions of several vertical ducts in the lower end portion of the magazine are closely adjacent to the bottom wall of the tray. The tray is lowered continuously or stepwise while the ducts admit vertical streams or rows of cigarettes into the interior of the tray wherein the deposited cigarettes form superimposed layers with the cigarettes of each upper layer staggered relative to the cigarettes of the layer therebelow. This is attributed to the provision of horizontal shafts or horizontal tongues which flank the lower end portions of the ducts and are movable back and forth from neutral positions to effect a desirable distribution of descending cigarettes in the tray. The magazine is further provided with upper wall members which are normally disposed above the horizontal shafts or tongues and each of which can perform several movements to prevent bridging of cigarettes in the magazine, to promote the filling of ducts with cigarettes and/or to seal the lower end portions of the ducts preparatory to replacement of a filled tray with an empty tray.
