<p>The invention has for its object a device for transferring rod-like articles, particularly cigarettes, from a rectilinear horizontal path (PL) to a rotary fluted drum (T) having its axis of rotation substantially parallel to the said rectilinear path. The device according to the invention is characterized by the fact that it comprises two main rotary elements (5, 6) of which one is driven into rotation by suitable driving means, and which are rotatably mounted on two fixed shafts (2, 4) parallel and spaced apart, said main rotary elements being coupled with each other by means of at least one pair of main double cranks (7) con= sisting each of an arm (107) integral with two opposed crank pins (507, 607) which rotatably engage the two main rotary elements (5, 6) facing each other, so as to form a first rotary system of the articulated parallelogram type, in which the arms (107) of the main double crank (7) are maintained always parallel to one another, while a crank pin (607) of at least one main double crank (7) is extended beyond the respective main rotary element (6) and terminates with a pin (13) arranged in eccentric position, so as to form a pair of orbiting axes parallel and spaced between each other, onto which there are rotatably mounted two secondary rotary elements (14, 15) coupled between each other by at least one pair of secondary double cranks (17) so as to form a second rotary system of the articulated parallelogram type, the crank pin (317) of at least one secondary double crank (17) extending beyond the respective secondary rotary element (15) so as to form an extension on which there is secured a pneumatic pick-up or suction head (1), while the other secondary rotary element (14) is driven into rotation and is coupled in such a manner to the fixed main shaft (4) around which it orbits, so as to rotate around itself upon rotation of the main rotary elements (5, 6), and more particularly to rotate around itself with an angular speed which is equal but contrary to that of the said pair of main rotary elements (5, 6).</p> |
