ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The channel between the convergent tobacco compacting upper and lower chain conveyors of a tobacco shredding machine receives particles of tobacco, especially tobacco ribs, from a vibrating trough which defines a path extending in substantial parallelism with the direction of travel of particles between the chain conveyors and on toward the cutting station. The trough effects preliminary homogenization and compacting of particles on their way toward the rear portion of the lower chain conveyor which extends rearwardly beyond the upper chain conveyor. The front portion of the trough is vibrated in such a way that the particles therein perform recurrent movements having predominantly vertical components, and the rear portion of the trough is vibrated so as to cause the particles therein to perform recurrent movements having predominantly horizontal components. This is achieved by mounting the front portion of the trough on leaf springs which make with a vertical plane a relatively large acute angle, and by mounting the rear portion of the trough on leaf springs which make with a vertical plane a relatively small acute angle. - 1 -
