    摘要: The object of the application is an apparatus for processing rod-like articles of the tobacco industry wherein the rod-like articles are conveyed in flutes of a conveyor along a path of movement transverse to the axis of the rod-like article with a pair (6) of circular knives (6A, 6B) adjacent to each other, whereas the axes of rotation (Z, Z') of the circular knives are situated on two sides of the path of movement (P), characterized in that the path of movement (P) passes through an area (6C) of overlapping of the adjacent circular knives (6A, 6B), whereas in the pair (6) of the adjacent circular knives (6A, 6B) one circular knife (6A) is situated above the carrier surface (2A, 2A') of the conveyor (2, 2'), whereas the other circular knife (6B) is situated beneath the carrier surface (2A, 2A') of the conveyor (2, 2'). The object of the application is also a method for processing rod-like articles (1) of the tobacco industry.

    摘要: The object of the application is a filling hopper for a filling apparatus for multi-segment trays in the tobacco industry with a receiving region for rod like articles in the form of a mass flow and a storing region for rod like articles comprising side walls (8, 9) and a bottom wall (10), whereas the storing region has double partition walls (16) alternately forming a plurality of parallel cavities (15) and slots (14), where the partition walls (16) extend in principle along the entire height of the storing region. The partition walls (16) are connected with each other by means of a carrying framework so that at least from one side free access to the articles inside the cavities (15) is maintained. The carrying framework comprises at least one fastening area (19).
