摘要： A cigarette reversing apparatus comprises a rotating transfer drum having a plurality of openings arranged equidistantly along the circle on the end surface of the drum, the openings being communicated with suction holes formed at the bottom of slots which are formed in the peripheral surface of the drum. A control ring faces the openings in the drum and has a suction distribution chamber spanning a cigarette overturning section of the drum. A rotating ring is slidably and rotatably interposed between the transfer drum and the control ring, the rotating ring being eccentric with respect to the drum and having a plurality of communication holes communicating with both the openings and the suction chamber. The communication holes are arranged equidistantly along a circle at intervals or pitches two times those of openings, the number of communication holes being half of the even number nearest to the odd number of the openings; whereby as the transfer drum makes a complete turn, the rotating ring is rotated at a speed corresponding to 1/2 pitch of the communication holes faster or slower than the drum so that suction is applied only to the every other slot where the cigarettes are installed so as to overturn the cigarettes efficiently.

摘要翻译： 香烟反转装置包括旋转传送鼓，其具有沿着滚筒的端面上沿圆周等距离布置的多个开口，开口与形成在滚筒的圆周表面中的槽底部形成的抽吸孔连通 。 控制环面向滚筒中的开口，并且具有跨越滚筒的卷烟翻转部分的抽吸分配室。 旋转环可滑动地且可旋转地插入在转印鼓和控制环之间，旋转环相对于滚筒是偏心的，并且具有与两个开口和吸入室连通的多个连通孔。 连通孔以一定距离的间隔或间距等距离地设置为开口的两倍，连通孔的数量是最接近奇数个开口的偶数的一半; 由此，当转鼓完全转动时，旋转环以比滚筒更快或更慢的连通孔的1/2间距的速度旋转，使得吸力仅施加到安装香烟的每隔一个槽 以便有效地推翻香烟。
