ABSTRACT:
Tobacco leaves to be smoothed after moistening are advanced in their transverse direction, i.e. with one side edge leading, between a pair of smoothing implements while being gripped at points adjacent to said leading side edge and near to the stalk or butt end and the point end of the leaf, respectively. The apparatus comprises a pair of upper and lower smoothing implements that are reciprocable parallel to the path of advance of the leaves and are at the same time movable relative to each other in the vertical direction between a closed, or operative, position and an open, or inoperative, position.
