ABSTRACT:
A tobacco distributor wherein a toothed drum withdraws a continuous layer of tobacco shreds from a magazine. The teeth impart to the periphery of the drum a saw-tooth profile and their trailing flanks have outwardly and forwardly extending pins. The pins withdraw relatively long shreds and the leading flanks of the teeth withdraw relatively short shreds when the drum is rotated to move successive teeth along an open side of the magazine wherein tamping members push tobacco shreds into the range of teeth and pins. The layer is thereupon converted into a wide carpet, and the carpet is converted into a narrow tobacco stream ready for trimming or immediate draping into cigarette paper.
