METHOD AND DEVICE FOR OPENING AND CLOSING A TRANSVERSE ARRANGED ON A CONVEYOR IN A CIGARETTE PACKING MACHINE

摘要

The method for opening an overpass section (101) on a conveyor belt used in a cigarette packing machine comprises unfastening a lock (104) and retracting one end (121, 122) of the overpass so that collision with components (102, 103) connected in front of or behind the conveyor is reduced. The overpass is then swung out of the path of the conveyor. An Independent claim is included for a device for opening an overpass section.
