Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9413161A1] A device is disclosed for transporting and storing cigarettes. High-performance packaging machines require a correspondingly large stock of cigarettes. Several containers (21) are fixedly assembled into a storage unit (20). Each container (21) receives a large number of cigarettes. The containers (21) are filled and emptied through an opening (26) arranged in the bottom wall (28) without any change in their relative position. A conveyor (16) for filling and emptying the containers (21) is also designed in a special manner. It has two separate conveyor shafts (40, 41) for filling and emptying the containers (21).
