摘要:
Dispositif pour assurer le remplissage uniforme d'une boîte avec un matériau en vrac comme du tabac, ce dispositif étant formé d'une plate-forme montée sur ressort comportant un transporteur à rouleaux (2) pour mettre la boîte (4) dans la position désirée à une station de remplissage, ainsi que des mécanismes d'entraînement excentriques (34, 36) reliés à la plate-forme pour la faire osciller sur ces ressorts (27).
摘要:
Apparatus for unpacking a tobacco bale which is contained inside a plastic bag within a telescopic cardboard container, the container having a surrounding plastic strap. The apparatus includes (1) a destrapping station having a cutter adapted to ride along the top of the carton to cut the strap; (2) a lifting device for removing the top of the container by gripping it around the upper corners and then moving it away from the bale and collapsing it and (3) a bag removal device which pulls the bag from the bale, after it has been inverted so that the bottom of the bag is uppermost.
摘要:
An elutriator for separating different grades of leaf material comprises a first distribution means (10), an elutriation zone (100) disposed above the first distribution means (10), and a first fluid supply means (113) for supplying a fluid to said zone through the distribution means (10). The first distribution means comprises two first distribution plates (10) which diverge in an upward direction, each first distribution plate (10) being adapted to direct the fluid therethrough in a direction which has a component extending along a surface of the plate, wherein, in use, the velocity of fluid delivered to the elutriation zone (100) is greater than the terminal velocity of at least one grade of the material to be separated.
摘要:
Tobacco conditioning apparatus comprising a covered generally U-shaped trough (2) containing an axially extending rotatable paddle assembly (8, 16). Tobacco to be conditioned is introduced through an aperture (6) in the cover (4) at the inlet end, and the trough is mounted with its axis inclined downwardly towards the outlet end so that the tobacco is progressively moved from the inlet to the outlet by rotation of the paddle assembly, while being conditioned with a steam spray. The tobacco leaves the outlet end through an aperture (7) in the base of the trough.

摘要:
Apparatus for processing tobacco bales, comprising slicer means (1) for successively cutting slices from a bale; a pusher device (2) for moving the cut slices away from the slicer blade; and a conveyor (6) for receiving the slices from the pusher and delivering them to a further processing device (5). The combination of the conveyor and pusher enables a predetermined and controllable loading space for the addition of any additional loose tobacco (or other material) whilst avoiding the requirement of a long travel mechanism for the pusher.
摘要:
Apparatus for slicing tobacco bales for conditioning in which the bales are moved from a conveyor (2) onto an adjacent lift device (16) by a first pusher (6), and are then sliced by a slicing blade (20) which is moved horizontally into engagement with the top of the bale and slices the bale whilst the lift device is dropped slightly to assist in cleaving the bale. The lift is then actuated to raise the bale ready for the next slicing operation, after the previous slice has been ejected by a second pusher (22).
摘要:
Apparatus for slicing tobacco bales comprising a plurality of parallel sharp prongs or lances (1) which can be moved to penetrate the bale (7) in a horizontal plane while the bale is supported on a lift device (14). A retractable bale (9) is arranged to be movable parallel to the prongs so as to separate the slice from them after cutting and has downwardly dependent sharpened teeth (10) attached to its lower edge so as to extend between the prongs.
