Estimating the term…
A machine for making one or more cigarette rods or analogous smokers' products is provided with a cooling apparatus for one or more cooling elements, one for each rod. Each such element has a finger which frictionally contacts and is thus heated by the respective advancing rod preferably immediately downstream of a station where one or more tobacco streams is or are converted into one or more rod-like fillers, and a guide wall which carries the finger and frictionally contacts and is thus heated by the advancing filler at a wrapping station for the rod. The cooling apparatus has at least one part which is cooled by a circulating fluid coolant and is movable into and from surface-to-surface contact with the finger(s) and the guide wall(s).
Apparatus for cooling a guide wall for at least one rod-like filler which is being turned out by a machine for making smokers' products, comprising a cooling element arranged to indirectly cool said guide wall.
A cooling element for at least one guide wall for at least one rod-like filler containing a smokable material and being turned out by a machine for making smokers' products, said cooling element being arranged to indirectly cool said guide wall and having means for conveying a flowable coolant therethrough.
A machine for making at least one moving rod and for subdividing the rod into a plurality of rod-shaped smokers' products, comprising at least one rod guiding wall which is heated as a result of contact with the moving rod;
A machine for simultaneously making a plurality of moving rods and for subdividing the moving rods into pluralities of rod-shaped smokers' products, comprising a cooling apparatus including a cooling element for each of the rods, each of said cooling elements having a first rod contacting surface and including a finger having a second rod contacting surface, each of said elements being arranged to cool a different one of the moving rods and said apparatus further having means for indirectly cooling said elements.
