Fluid feeding method and nozzle

摘要

The substance of the invention is a method of fluid feeding by means of at least one nozzle (4, 4A, 4B, 4C, 4D, 4E) onto a carrier (2) in a machine of the tobacco industry wherein the fluid is fed to the nozzle (4, 4A, 4B, 4C, 4D, 4E) from a fluid container (10) by means of a feeding device (11), whereas the nozzle (4, 4A, 4B, 4C, 4D, 4E) comprises a body (12, 12A) and at least one movable member (13, 13A, 13C, 13E, 13F, 13G, 30), and the fluid is fed onto the carrier (2) through at least two outlet orifices (15, 15A, 15B, 15C, 15D) of the nozzle (4, 4A, 4B, 4C, 4D, 4E). The reciprocal position of the outlet orifices (15, 15A, 15B, 15C, 15D) of the nozzle (4, 4A, 4B, 4C, 4D, 4E) is varied by means of an adjusting mechanism (19, 19A, 19B, 19C, 19D). The substance of the invention is a nozzle for fluid feeding onto a carrier (2) in a machine of the tobacco industry, comprising a body (12, 12A) and at least one movable member (13, 13A, 13C, 13E, 13F, 13G, 30) and at least two outlet orifices (15, 15A, 15B, 15C, 15D) for fluid feeding onto the carrier (2). The nozzle comprises also an adjusting mechanism (19, 19A, 19B, 19C, 19D) varying the reciprocal position of the outlet orifices (15, 15A, 15B, 15C, 15D) of the nozzle (4, 4A, 4B, 4C, 4D, 4E).
