Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0446480A1] The invention relates to a cigarette-packaging machine having at least one turret (1) possessing cells (2) and having a continuously drivable conveyor chain (10) which follows the turret (1), possesses drivers (16) and conveys in the axial direction of the turret (1) and the drivers (16) of which can be guided through a respective cell (2) of the turret (1) which is in the transfer position. So that articles can be transferred in a careful way, the cells (2) in the turret (1) are arranged displaceably in the axial direction and, in the transfer position, can be coupled to a slide (13) which so accelerates the respective cell (2) in the conveying direction of the conveyor chain (10) that, when the article (19) located in the cell (2) and to be taken over is reached by the driver (16), the cell (2) has virtually the speed of the conveyor chain (10). <IMAGE>
