Abstract
A tip paper cutting apparatus for a filter cigarette manufacturing system includes a pair of brush rollers arranged close to a bladed drum, and a brush is mounted on the outer peripheral surface of each brush roller so as to be in contact with cutting blades of the bladed drum. Olive oil is atomized by compressed air in a spraying device, and supplied to passages formed within the brush rollers. Olive oil is then sprayed toward the brushes from spray ports of the passages opening in the outer peripheral surfaces of the brush rollers so as to pass through the brushes. Accordingly, even when the brush rollers are rotating at high speed, the brushes can be sufficiently soaked with olive oil passing therethrough. As a result, the cutting blades are reliably applied with olive oil by means of the brushes, and good cutting quality of the blades can be maintained.
