Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1815757A1] A cutter device in a cigarette maker comprises a drum (2) turning on a first axis (T), by which two continuous cigarette rods (3) advancing along a feed direction (B) are cut into sticks (3a), also a counterblade (5) turning on a second axis (C) extending transversely to the feed direction (B) and separated from the rods (3) by a distance dictated by the length of the cut sticks (3a); the cutter drum (2) and the counterblade (5) are interconnected by a train of three gears (15, 16, 18) of which the axes of rotation are linked in pairs by way of two connecting rods (24, 25) in such a way that the gears (15,16,18) can be maintained in constant meshing contact when the counterblade axis (C) is repositioned relative to the feed direction (B). The connecting rods (24, 25) thus provide a timing mechanism able to synchronize the operation of the cutter drum (2) and the counterblade (5), which remains unaffected by changes in the distance between the axis of rotation (C) of the counterblade (5) and the path of the cigarette rods (3).
