    摘要: Cigarettes are formed from tobacco filler which is at a temperature in excess of approximately 35.degree. Celsius and having an elevated moisture content. For example, particles of tobacco filler having an elevated moisture content of approximately 13.5% to approximately 17% are heated by being exposed to a source of heat having a temperature of between approximately 35.degree. and approximately 60.degree. Celsius before being formed into tobacco rods. Preferably a temperature range of between approximately 43.degree. and approximately 52.degree. Celsius is employed. The heating source can be selected from infrared radiation sources, hot water jackets, heating coils, microwave radiation sources or air heated by any one or more of the foregoing. The heating process can take place during the acceleration of the tobacco filler particles from the distributor up to the permeable rod conveyor belt or from the tobacco feeding system supplying the distributor.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for producing a tobacco rod of predictable characteristics whereby the tobacco filler is tempered prior to forming into a rod in a cigarette making apparatus. The tobacco filler is tempered prior to entry into the maker region to a temperature of from 32.degree. F. to just below ambient. Heat exchange coils are provided in a feed chamber wherein the tobacco filler is recirculated for tempering to desired temperature prior to being fed to the maker on a continuous basis.

    摘要: The invention provides a method of making tobacco rod in which method the tobacco filler material of the rod is subjected to radio frequency heating before feeding to a rod making machine. The elevated temperature increases the pliability of the tobacco filler, thus reducing its degradation in the rod making machine and enhancing the physical properties, e.g. ends stability, of the tobacco rods thus produced.

    摘要: A cigarette rod or finished cigarette is filled with less tobacco than necessary to completely fill the wrapper and, in addition, the moisture content of the tobacco is adjusted to an appropriate level above normal making moistures. The cigarette rod is then irradiated with microwave energy which causes the tobacco to expand and dry, producing a cigarette of proper firmness and tobacco moisture level.

    摘要: The invention is concerned with an apparatus and a method for the treatment of cut tobacco in a cigarette-making machine in which a stream of tobacco strands carried in a stream of air is subjected to microwave-radiation energy by passing it through a radiation chamber. Suitably, the wavelength of the microwave energy is in the range from 10 to 100 cms. and the stream of air carrying the tobacco is directed through the chamber at a substantial distance from the chamber walls where the energy level is low. The path of the tobacco strands through the chamber is defined by a pair of confronting end walls having straight inlet and outlet portions at their ends, and an arcuate portion therebetween that is convex toward a wave-guide that terminates in an outlet communicating with the interior of the chamber. The straight portions serve as microwave-retaining filters and the confronting walls are transparent to the passing of microwaves therethrough. A rotating fan is positioned to the passing of microwaves therethrough. A rotating fan is positioned in the chamber between the confronting walls and the energy inlet and serves to cool the adjacent arcuate wall. Tobacco leaving the chamber is formed into a filler stream and into a rod from which cigarettes may be cut.
