Abstract

See full text

Embodiments provide cigarette rolling and forming devices that include parallel cylinders extending between a pair of support plates, and a looped belt trained therearound. One cylinder is moveable relative to the other via a pair of curvilinear slots, and the device is configured for alternately receiving and compressing loose tobacco into a tobacco rod with the belt. In some devices, a nozzle is provided to allow longitudinal displacement of the formed tobacco rod into a pre-formed cigarette tube, and some devices include a pushing device to effect this longitudinal displacement. In some embodiments, a light source is provided and configured to illuminate a portion of the device, such as the nozzle or the recess between the cylinders. In various embodiments, the device also may include a power source configured to provide power to the light source and an activation member, such as a switch or button, configured to activate the light source.
