Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0745335A1] A method and unit (1) for supplying a cigarette manufacturing machine (2), whereby a stream (52) of shredded tobacco (3) is supplied to at least one suction conveyor belt (4) by traveling along an upflow output portion (11) of a supply path (9), an input portion (10) of which communicates, at a junction (12), with the output portion (11) and with a basin (39) into which heavy particles (44) in the tobacco fall; the stream (52) of tobacco, as it travels along the input portion (10), being stratified by an air jet directed substantially crosswise to the traveling direction (33) of the stream (52), so that, on reaching the junction (12), the heavy particles (44) in the stream (52) are located on the side of the stream (52) facing the basin (39). <IMAGE>
