Abstract (en)

A rod-like article forming apparatus comprises an endless garniture tape (10) used for forming a tobacco rod (R) with shredded tobacco and a paper web (P), a driving drum (12) for causing the garniture tape (10) to travel in one direction, and a plurality of presser rollers (34) for pressing the garniture tape (10) against the outer circumferential surface of the driving drum (12). The presser rollers (34) increase the contacting force of the garniture tape (10) with respect to the outer circumferential surface of the driving drum (12). <IMAGE>
