Systems, methods, and devices for delivering tobacco into tobacco casing tubes

An automatic cigarette filling system for packing and filling cigarette tubes with tobacco, comprising:

• a housing body, comprising:
• a tobacco holding compartment to receive tobacco;
• and
• a nozzle to dispense packed tobacco from the tobacco holding compartment into a cigarette casing tube;
• a packer module, located at least partially within the tobacco holding compartment, comprising:
• a packing motor;
• a packing platform coupled to the packing motor by a movable packer arm;
• and
• at least one finger slidably coupled with the packing platform to pack tobacco to a predetermined compression;
• a dispensing spoon to dispense packed tobacco from the tobacco holding compartment via the nozzle;
• a tobacco compression adjustment module, comprising:
• a compressor adjustment motor;
• and
• a compressor adjustment arm operable to contact the packing platform, wherein actuating the compressor adjustment arm causes it to rotate about an axis and change position with respect to the packing platform;
• and
• a control system, comprising:
• a user interface to receive input from a user;
• and
• an electrical control module comprising non-transitory computer readable memory and at least one processor that is operably coupled with the user interface and the packing motor,
• wherein, when connected to a power supply and upon receiving an input from the user, the electrical control module causes the packing motor to actuate the packer arm and thereby pack the tobacco to a predetermined compression using the at least one finger before dispensing it into a cigarette casing tube using the dispensing spoon, and
• upon receiving a compression adjustment user input, the electrical control module causes the compressor adjustment motor to actuate the compressor adjustment arm and thereby change the compression of the tobacco being packed.
