摘要:
The object of the application is an apparatus for manufacturing of rods of a continuous material strand (2) comprising a feeding unit (3) for feeding material strand (2), a guiding unit (6) for guiding material strand (2), a compressing unit (7) for compressing the strand and forming a continuous rod (CR) of the material strand (2), and an object feeding unit (8, 51, 70) for feeding an object (9, 50, 75) to the compressing unit (7). The apparatus is characterised by being provided with a cutting unit (5) for lengthwise cutting of the material strand (2) into at least two partial strands (a, b, c), whereas the partial strands (a, b, c) are fed through the guiding unit (6) to the compressing unit (7). The apparatus is further characterised by being provided with a system for adjusting the position of at least one cutting element (15, 16, 35, 36) in the cutting unit (5) so as to adjust the widths of the partial strands (a, b, c) thus determining the point of insertion of the object (9, 50, 75) being inserted.
摘要:
An assembly for separating selected defective objects from a group of objects used in tobacco industry, the group comprising regular objects having a form of substantially spherical external surface of a determined diameter and the remaining objects being defective objects, the assembly comprising a sieve element (105) having through channels (106) or holes and a generally flat blocking element (107) located under the sieve element, the blocking element having an upper surface /107B) and through holes (108), the sieve element and the blocking element being displaceable in a direction parallel and/or perpendicular with respect to each other at least between a first configuration and a second configuration. In the first configuration the channels or holes of the sieve element, and the holes of the blocking element enable the regular objects and selected defective objects to enter the upper parts of the channels and they enable the regular objects to fall through the lower parts of the channels and through the holes of the blocking element, while they hold said selected defective objects. In the second configuration the channels or holes of the sieve element and the holes of the blocking element enable said defective objects held in the first configuration to fall through the assembly. A method of separating selected defective objects from a group of objects used in tobacco industry using the assembly according to the invention.
