ABSTRACT:
The leading end portion of a stream of cigarettes being fed horizontally by a continuous conveyor, formed of a plurality of slats, is separated from the stream by divider plates carried at intervals along the conveyor, the divider plates being arranged to slide through slots in the associated slats. The divider plates are mounted so that they are inserted obliquely into the stream of cigarettes and then moved to a vertical position, at which time the divider plates are protruding only partly into the stream. While moving in unison with the stream, the divider plates are then moved vertically so as to be progressively pushed through the remaining part of the height of the stream.
