Method, mechanism and apparatus for momentary compression of filter material

摘要

A mechanism for a momentary compression of a filter material used in the tobacco industry, wrapped into a wrapper and glued with an adhesive delivered from an adhesive applying apparatus, adapted to being placed on a machine for manufacturing filter rods before the adhesive applying apparatus is characterised in that it comprises at least one rotary compressing member (10) for pressing the filter material (S) linearly moving underneath it. A method of a momentary compression of a filter material used in the tobacco industry, wrapped into a wrapper and glued with an adhesive delivered from an adhesive applying apparatus on a machine for manufacturing filter rods is characterised in that before wrapping the filter material (S) into the wrapper (14) the filter material is compressed by exerting a force (F) on the filter material (S) by means of at least one rotary compressing member (10).
