Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2545791A1] A device for rolling filter-tipped cigarettes comprises a rolling channel (30) where paper patches (10) are rolled round respective groups (4), each defined by two cigarette sticks (6) axially aligned with each other, and a double filter plug (8) interposed between the two cigarette sticks (6). The channel (30) comprises an infeed station (I) where the groups (4) and the respective patches (10) are fed in, and is defined by a first surface (38) and a second surface (40) mutually opposed and movable relative to each other. The patches (10) have a layer of glue spread on them according to a predetermined application pattern (32) and one of the two surfaces (38,40) has first zones (56) which are recessed relative to second zones (58), the latter being distributed according to a pattern reflecting the predetermined glue application pattern (32). Also, the first zones (56) and the second zones (58) define in the rolling channel (30) differentiated compression sections by which the patches (10) are pressed on the respective groups (4) to different degrees.
