Abstract

See full text

Apparatus for draping successive cigarette packs into blanks of light-transmitting material has a turret with radially extending open-ended pockets and is indexible to move successive pockets to a predetermined position of register with a fixed mouthpiece. A web of wrapping material is transported downwardly by a conveyor having independently driven upper and lower units. A severing device cuts across the leader of the web between the two conveying units to form a series of discrete blanks which are pushed by the respective packs through the mouthpiece and into the registering pockets of the turret. The lower conveying unit delivers successive blanks in front of the mouthpiece and can be accelerated to move blanks out of the way in the absence of packs as well as to evacuate blanks prior to stoppage of the apparatus.
