[0028] Please see Figure 1-7 This utility model provides a cigarette tube for use with a cigarette rolling machine. It includes a tube body 1, an upper tube 2, a lower tube 3, and a connecting tube 4 threadedly connected to the end of the upper tube 2. The upper tube 2 and lower tube 3 are connected to the tube body 1 via a snap-fit ​​connection, or other movable connection methods may also be used. In this utility model, the lower tube 3 has a steel wire 5 that passes through the entire tube body 1, upper tube 2, and connecting tube 4, and moves back and forth within the tube body 1, upper tube 2, and connecting tube 4.

[0029] The tube 1 of this utility model is trumpet-shaped with openings 11 at both ends and a through cavity inside for installing cigarette sleeves. A locking protrusion 12 is formed on the outer wall of the opening 11. The upper tube 2 includes an upper tube body 21. One end of the upper tube body 21 forms an annular groove 22 for locking the tube 1. The other end of the upper tube body 21 forms a conical platform 23 for tension adjustment. At least two tension grooves 24 are formed on the conical platform 23. An external thread 25 is formed on the outer wall of the conical platform 23. A locking strip is provided on the inner wall of the annular groove 22. A locking groove 26 is formed on the outer wall of the upper tube body 2. A fixing ear 27 is formed on the outer wall of the upper tube body 3. In addition, there are corresponding fixing ears on the tube body, which are installed to prevent chain drop.

[0030] The lower tube 3 of this utility model includes a lower tube body 32 with an internal cavity 31. One end of the lower tube body 32 is an open end and the other end is a closed end 33. A steel wire 4 is fixedly installed on the closed end 33. A groove 26 matching the protrusion 12 is formed on the outer wall of the open end. The lower tube 33 is connected to the steel wire 4, which makes it convenient to control and operate the steel wire 4.

[0031] In this utility model, a through cavity 41 is formed on the connecting pipe 4, an internal thread 42 is formed on the inner wall of the cavity 41, and an anti-slip texture 43 is formed on the outer wall of the connecting pipe 4, which facilitates operation and control.

[0032] In actual use, the customer first places the cigarette sleeve into the tube body 1. The lower tube 3, along with the steel wire 4 on it, passes through the cigarette sleeve in the tube body, and the lower tube 3 is connected by a locking protrusion and a locking groove. At the same time, the upper tube 2 is also fixed to the upper part of the tube body 1. Then, the whole thing is matched with the tobacco outlet on the cigarette rolling machine. Finally, after the tobacco is shredded by the cigarette rolling machine, the shredded tobacco is transported into the cigarette sleeve through the cigarette rolling component. Due to the presence of the iron wire, the steel wire is pulled out after the cigarette is rolled, so there is a certain gap inside the tobacco, allowing air to enter when smoking, which increases the customer's smoking experience.

[0033] Although embodiments of the present utility have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present utility, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
