Definitions

  • This present invention generally relates to an electrical cigarettes filling machine used for filling empty cigarette tube, equipped with inlet storage container having internal mixer device that move the tobacco gently inside the container to provide continued and smooth supply of tobacco to the filling cigarette system.
  • the invention also relates to an apparatus for cleaning cigarette tip.
  • the device removes overfilled tobacco from the cigarette tip and collects it to drawer to be fed back to storage.
  • Cigarettes tube filling machines have heen around for many years. Most of existing machines require feeding the tobacco for each single cigarette; the existing machines still have some major problems such as accumulation of excessive tobacco at the cigarette tip that is outstanding of the cigarette tip. The excess tobacco is either removed manually or falls around while being used. Another disadvantage of most existing machine is limitation in supply continues flow of tobacco to the filling machine.
  • the filling machine has also an optional for multi filling system comprises of few filling channels arranged together in one housing allowing filling of one or more cigarettes at the same time.
  • the storage device with the feeding system inside and the cigarette tip cleaning system may support any existing cigarette filling machine.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a filling cigarette machine system comprising:
  • the advantage of the present invention is to provide a cigarette filling machine which keeps a uniformed and continuance flow of tobacco into the cigarette empty tubes, allowing the filling process continue without the need of filling tobacco as long as inlet container contains tobacco.
  • Another advantage of the present invention is to provide a cigarette filling machine which automatically cleans the cigarette tip from any leftovers of tobacco.
  • a further advantage of the present invention is to provide a cigarette filling machine in which the user can control how tightly tobacco is packed into the cigarettes.
  • a still further advantage of the present invention is to provide a portable cigarette filling machine which is compact and can be easily transported by hand.
  • Yet another advantage of the present invention is to provide a cigarette filling machine with the option of filling few cigarette tubes in parallel.
  • Yet another advantage of the present invention is to provide a cigarette filling machine with a safety mechanism that automatically stops machine operation when tobacco container cap is opened.
  • the present invention relates to electrical cigarettes filling machine with supporting additional accessories such as:
  • the tobacco is kept inside an inlet storage container covered with cap, isolated from surrounding humidity.
  • the container is equipped with internal mixing element such as (but not limited to) rotating spring or rod that ensures smooth and continuous feeding tobacco to the filling channels and from there into the empty cigarette tubes.
  • a designated operating control board and of indicative led panel enables activating and deactivating the feeding spring motor.
  • the option for few filling channels it allows separately and independently activating and deactivating each of the filling channels independently.
  • a density control knob drive an eccentric shaft enables control over the tobacco density inside the filled cigarette tubes.
  • the machine has an option for being equipped with a cleaning tip system which clean excess tobacco (going out from the filled cigarette tube) when cigarette is over filled.
  • the excess tobacco is removed of the cigarette tip and collected into collecting drawer.
  • the collected tobacco is then empty to the inlet storage container from time to time.
  • the excess tobacco removed from cigarette tip is dropped in to the collecting drawer.
  • the collecting drawer is empty from time to time back to the inlet storage container and the accumulated tobacco is reused.
  • the present invention relates to a cigarette rolling machine equipped with optional features to be easily operated to have continual operation without the need to stop the cigarette rolling process for refilling tobacco to the machine, and to ensure supply of cigarettes without excess tobacco showing up from the cigarette end.
  • the bulk tobacco is placed into the inlet sealed storage container (15) comprising internal mixing element that allows continual, smooth and steady supply of tobacco to the filling channels (2).
  • the tobacco in the filling channel is moved by the feeding spring (11) into the cigarette through the hollow bare tube (43) unit.
  • An empty cigarette tube (4) placed on the supporting groove (50), is pushed gently over the hollow bar tube (43).
  • the tobacco is continually fed by the feeding spring (11) into the cigarette tube (4) pushing out the filled part away from the hollow bar (43).
  • An eccentric shaft press the cigarette shell resisting it's sliding back and by that controlling the density of tobacco pushed to the cigarette shell.
  • the cigarette filling machine may have one or more filling channels (2) operating in parallel individually.
  • the tip cleaning system (41).
  • the cigarette is moved to the cleaning tip unit.
  • the cleaning unit remove the excess tobacco by one of the methods either vibrating the cigarette by element such as piezoelectric device Fig 3-C (104) or brushing the cigarette tip and removing the tobacco showing out of the cigarette end.
  • the cigarette is now ready for use.
  • the user place the empty cigarette shell on the cigarette supporting groove (50) and push it gently onto the hollow bar (43), inserting the cigarette shell over the hollow bar (43).
  • the on/of knob (25) is pressed and operates mixer device ( fig 2 ).
  • Pushing buttons (241, 242, 243, 244) located on control panel (24) will start the feeding spring (11) rotating. Tobacco is pushed through the hollow bar (43) to the empty cigarette tube and fills it up. Acentric shaft knob (42) adjusted to get required density of tobacco.
  • the filled cigarette tube (4) is pushed backward and fed into the cleaning tip system (6).
  • a sensor detects the cigarette and stops the feeding spring (11) rotation.
  • the cleaning system vibrates the cigarette (or brush the cigarette tip) remove the excess tobacco from the cigarette tip.
  • the vibration knob adjustment (10) control the intensity of cleaning device.
  • the access tobacco removed from the cigarette tip is collected into the drawer (7). From time to time the drawer is pulled out and the collected tobacco is returned to the inlet container (15).
