<p>A device for aligning a rod members includes a separation drum(56), feeding grooves(114), which are disposed at equal intervals on the outer peripheral surface thereof, for receiving a pair of charcoal half rods(CF1), and a sealing sheet(124) for covering part of the outer peripheral surface of the drum(56). The feeding groove(114) is formed into a tunnel-shaped passage when the feeding groove(114) passes through the sealing sheet(124) as the drum(56) rotates. Suction holes(126) are provided at opposite ends of the feeding groove(114). The suction holes suck the air in the tunnel-shaped passage to move the paired charcoal half rods(CF1) to the right and the left. Stopper rings(128) are fixed to opposite end portions of the drum(56) to stop the movement of the charcoal half rods(CF1). Thus, the charcoal half rods(CF1) separated to right and left are aligned. <IMAGE></p> |
