ABSTRACT:
Smoking tobacco is provided for self-making finished cigarettes. A tobacco unit (47) includes a plurality of sub-quantity portions (48 or 50, respectively) which are held together by inner and/or outer fixing means (49) to form a stack of separable portions. Each quantity portion (48 or 50) contains substantially the tobacco quantity required for a finished cigarette. The outer surface of the tobacco unit (47) and/or the sub-quantity portions (48 or 50) are all permeable to air such that the tobacco unit or each portion is not drawable as such and hence cannot be smoked. The tobacco portions of unit (47) are each configured like a rod and interconnected by paste to form a rod belt (51), or are configured as a flat oval tobacco unit comprising the plurality of sub-quantity portions (48) as a continuous mass. The coherence of the tobacco unit (47) is such that when a sub-quantity (48 or 50) is separated from the adjacent portion, the sub-quantity portion removed and the immediately adjacent portion are necessarily destroyed or broken up whereby the internal coherence thereof is lost. A stuffing device is shown having a magazine (52) with which the tobacco unit is place. The magazine is attached to a compression chamber having an opening through which the tobacco unit is moved into the chamber. A severing knife (1) severs an individual sub-quantity (48 or 50) from the unit, and compression bar in the magazine compresses the tobacco into a tobacco bar corresponding to the tobacco in a finished cigarette.
