ABSTRACT:
A buffer magazine includes a conveyor belt (3) of reversible type and including a horizontal stretch (103) carrying the cigarettes arranged crosswise thereto in superposed layers, and moving between two vertical side walls (2) on a supporting table (8). The horizontal cigarette-carrying stretch (103) of the conveyor belt (3) has associated therewith a transverse partition wall (7) extending upwardly between the two side walls (2) and moving, through corresponding movements of the conveyor belt (3), alternately away from the inlet of the magazine to increase the capacity of the magazine and store cigarettes, and toward the inlet of said magazine to reduce the capacity of the magazine and return stored cigarettes. The supporting table (8) of the horizontal cigarette-carrying stretch (103) of the conveyor belt (3) is inclined or adapted to be inclined to the horizontal transversely to the longitudinal direction of the cigarette-carrying stretch (103) of the conveyor belt (3) and oppositely to the transverse inclination which the filter-tipped cigarettes (S) tend to assume on said cigarette-carrying stretch (103 ) of the conveyor belt (3), so as to ensure an average compensation for said inclination.
