Device for charging a continuous cigarette rod-making machine with tobacco

摘要

It is a device for pneumatic feeding tobacco process described with cut tobacco rod makers. It has a pneumatic conveying line (13) for the transport of cut tobacco from a supply by means of a current of delivery air in an air separator (37) which includes a tobacco separating region (12) having a tobacco outlet (27) and a via a suction pipe (21) is connected with a suction air suction pressure source region (19) comprises. The tobacco separating area is in the form of a to the pneumatic feed line (13) connected to the screening chamber (12) with a plurality of air-permeable screen walls (14, 14a, 16, 17) may be formed of an air suction chamber (19) is surrounded. Through the screen walls, the conveying air, after the deposition of the tobacco after several sides from the screening chamber (12) in the surrounding air suction chamber (19) from. The outlet of the feed line (13) and the inlet of the suction line (21) are aligned to one another in a straight line through the screening chamber (12) through. Dollars a of the advantage of this design of the charging unit consists in that a irrotational air flow is produced from which the tobacco in the screening chamber is deposited gently and gently.
