ABSTRACT:
Relatively small tobacco particles (including short tobacco and larger particles of tobacco dust) are extracted by suction from the tobacco filler stream in a cigarette making machine and are separated from the suction air stream or streams for immediate introduction into the magazine of the distributor or into the tobacco stream building zone of the machine. The separated particles are sprinkled by gravity onto the supply of tobacco in the magazine or are conveyed in a stream of compressed air which is admitted into the lower portion of the magazine or discharges the particles into the stream building zone so that the thus admitted particles form an intermediate layer of the filler stream.
