ABSTRACT:
A storage unit for elongated elements, particularly cigarettes, wherein a mass of cigarettes is supported on a first conveyor movable both ways through a loading-unloading station where the first conveyor is connected to a second conveyor by a connecting plate. A transversely articulated slide longer than the connecting plate travels together with the first conveyor, and, when unloading, is pushed by an end contact member on the first conveyor into engagement with the second conveyor, and travels together with the second conveyor so as to fully unload the storage unit.
