ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for removing cigarettes from a package. The apparatus has at least one cutter for cutting open the package with a full cut at right angles to the lengthwise orientation of the cigarettes. The apparatus has a separating station in which the cigarettes are removed from the cut-open package prior to further processing. The separating station has two vertically oriented spaced-apart deformation faces that extend parallel to one another and are rotatable for pivoting the package out of an essentially horizontal position and into an inclined to even vertical position. The distance between the deformation faces is less than the width of the package as measured between its two narrow long sides via which the package rests against the deformation faces during the pivoting process.
