A cigarette making machine of the type wherein a portion of tobacco for one cigarette is compressed into a generally cylindrical form within a compressed tobacco chamber. The tobacco is thereafter axially moved and injected by an elongated spoon member into a preformed cigarette tube disposed on a hollow nipple exteriorly of the machine. The compressed tobacco chamber has a portion thereof defined by a moveable wall member. The moveable wall member is actuated by a handle exteriorly of the machine through at least two toggle joints linking the moveable wall member to framing of the machine. The moveable wall member is displaceable between a retracted position and a tobacco compacting position. Each toggle joint has a first and a second link pivotally interconnected at a joint. The first link of each toggle joint is in pivotal connection with the moveable wall member. The second link of each toggle joints is in pivotal connection with the framing of the machine. Each first link has a substantially rounded head portion at the free end thereof. The rounded head portions is in operative contact with an abutment surface of the moveable wall member, for strengthening the pivotal connection therebetween.
