    Abstract: In an apparatus for the continuous production of a filter rod (M) for smoking articles, a belt conveyor system is arranged for advancing a rod of filter material (M) along a forming path (F). The belt conveyor system comprises at least two separate conveyor belts (1, 2), having respective upper conveying runs arranged one downstream of the other along said forming path (F). The speeds of movement of the aforesaid conveyor belts (1, 2) are controlled according to a predetermined ratio, which is selected in order to obtain a controlled axial stretching effect or a controlled axial compacting effect of the material of the filter rod as a result of the transition from one conveyor belt to the other, so as to influence the characteristics of the produced filter rod in the required manner. Alternatively or in addition to the aforesaid arrangement, additional operations can be performed in the area between the upper runs of the conveyor belts (1, 2), which modify the configuration and/or structure of the filter rod, such as shaping of the cross-section of the filter rod and/or marking of the filter rod surface and/or embossing of the filter rod surface, or filter material can be supplied to form an outer layer of the filter rod. In this latter case, the apparatus can be used to produce a filter rod having a structure with coaxial configuration.

    Abstract: A package for smoking articles, for example cigarettes, comprising a container (2) and at least one inner wrapping (5) arranged within said container (2), to enclose the smoking articles (6). The container (2) has a container body (3) and a lid (4) articulated to the container body (3). The inner wrapping (5) is provided with an opening (7) for extracting the smoking articles (6), which is closed by a closing flap (8) operatively connected, directly or indirectly, to the lid (4), in such a way that that the closing flap (8) moves between a closed condition and an open condition as a result of the movement of the lid (4) between its closed position and its open position. The lid opens the container body (3) at a main face (201) of the package. In a variant, the inner wrapping (5) is formed of a double-layer wrapping sheet material, with an outer layer that integrates a portion of the outer flap (80) movable with said lid (4) and configured to leave the access free to one or more inner flap portions (81) defined by said inner layer and corresponding to different compartments within the inner wrapping. The inner flap portions can be lifted for defining the openings for extracting the smoking articles. One or more of these inner flap portions are integral with the outer flap portion, so that they are lifted when the lid is opened.
