A unit for uneven transferring of a bead () stream in a filter manufacturing machine, from receiving pockets () to leading away pockets (), through guiding grooves disposed on guiding plates, comprising two guiding plates () situated on top of each other, whereas a guiding groove (A) of the first guiding plate () and a guiding groove (A) of the second guiding plate () intersect, forming at least one bead () guiding chamber, whereas at least one of the guiding plates () is movable, wherein the receiving pockets () and the leading away pockets () are disposed along the circumference of the guiding plates () so that the distances (S1, S2, T1, T2) between the successive pockets () are alternately different.

Method and unit for uneven transferring of beads

Device for transferring cylindrical segments from a hopper onto a grouping belt is provided with a guiding drum, having flutes on its periphery and a circumferentially closed conveyor which delivers segments to a rotary element with pushers. Conveyor with seats with a catching element for catching segments, and transferring the segments from the conveyor to the element is effected by means of a spiral drum. The device has a push-down element constituted by a cam with a groove of a height corresponding to the diameter of the segment. The catching element has the form of a depression in the body of the seat shaped as a half of a cylinder, corresponding to the diameter of the segment, with locks on edges, whereas the axis of the depression is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the conveyor.

A method and device for feeding beads in a tobacco industry system including a bead container, a bead feeding unit having a plurality of channels for supplying a plurality of bead streams, a unit for transferring the beads to the filter material, where the beads are fed from holding pockets of the bead feeding unit to receiving pockets of the bead transfer unit, in which the beads are supplied from the bead container to a plurality of channels of the bead feeding unit which form holding pockets; the beads are fed from the holding pockets of the bead feeding unit to the receiving pockets of the bead transfer unit and to a delivery wheel by a movable feeding device; the beads are picked up from the receiving pockets by a movable guiding device.

Bead feeding method and bead feeder

The subject matter of the application is a method of feeding beads in the tobacco industry system, in a unit for transferring a stream of beads (), from receiving pockets () to outfeeding pockets (), where the beads are transferred along guiding grooves (A,B,A,B,C) disposed on guiding plates (), comprising the steps in which: the beads are fed to a guiding chamber () formed at the intersection of the guiding groove (A,B) of the first guiding plate () and the guiding groove (A,B,C) of the second guiding plate (); at least one guiding plate is rotated relative to the second guiding plate, which forces the movement of the guiding chamber () so that the distance of the guiding chamber () to the axis of rotation of the guiding plates changes; the beads are conveyed from the guiding chamber () to the outfeeding pocket (). The subject matter of the application is also a device for the implementation of the method.

Method and unit for feeding beads

System having a transitory store (S), in the inlet zone () of which, there are disposed fillers () for compartment trays, to which rod shaped elements are delivered by in-feed conveyors () in form of mass flow from making machines (), and each machine is assigned with a separate filler (). In the outlet zone () of the store (S) there are disposed unloaders () for said trays, and rod shaped elements are delivered by out-feed conveyors () in form of mass flow to processing machines (), and each machine () is assigned with a separate unloader (). On the trajectory of each out-feed conveyor () there is situated an emptying hopper () co-operating with a mobile filler () for compartment trays. Moreover in the inlet zone () of the store (S) there is situated a filler (') for compartment trays, connected to an unloader () for one chamber trays with an in-feed conveyor (&#x2032;), and an in-feed conveyor (), and in the outlet zone () there is situated an out-feed conveyor ().
