Tearing and winding assembly (2, 3) in a tampon manufacturing apparatus, especially for manufacturing of a hygienic tampon, consisting of an endless band, which is formed of absorbent fibers and cut to longitudinal sections of a pre-determined length, and which is together with a liquid permeable wrapper and a retaining string helically wound into at least approximately cylindrical blank, which is then radially compressed into at least approximately cylindrical tampon, which is on its circumference furnished with a plurality of longitudinally extending ribs, which are along the circumference equidistantly spaced apart from each other, wherein said tearing assembly in said tampon manufacturing apparatus comprises two pairs of guiding rollers (21', 21"; 22', 22"), wherein the rollers (21', 21") in the first pair are arranged at a pre-determined distance apart from each other, which is smaller than the thickness of said and, and are rotatably embedded in a casing, and are moreover pressed towards to each other with a pre-determined force and rotated in opposite directions with a pre-determined circumferential velocity (v 1) and are therefore suitable for guiding said band there-between in a processing direction, namely in a direction towards the second pair of rollers (22', 22"), and wherein also the rollers (22', 22") in said second pair are arranged at a pre-determined distance apart from each other, which is smaller than thickness of said band, and are rotatably embedded in a suitable casing and are moreover also pressed towards to each other by a pre-determined force and simultaneously rotated in opposite directions with a circumferential velocity (v 2), and are therefore also suitable for guiding said band there-between in a processing direction, namely towards a winding assembly in a tampon manufacturing apparatus, wherein said winding assembly comprises a pre-determined number of winding units, which are arranged equidistantly along the circumference of a virtual cylinder, wherein each winding unit comprises a bifurcated rotor, which is coaxially inserted into a tubular stator, wherein said rotor is furnished with a diametrically extending throughout passage, which is suitable for receiving said longitudinal section of the band, and wherein also said stator is furnished with a diametrically extending passage, which is suitable for receiving of the same previously mentioned longitudinal section of the band, so that consequently, as soon as each longitudinal section of the band is inserted both through said passage in the stator and said passage in the rotor and upon that by performing a pre-determined number of revolutions of the rotor, said winding unit is suitable for formation of a helically wound section of the absorbent band together with said wrapper and said retaining string into an at least approximately cylindrical blank, which is ready to be radially compressed into a properly shaped and finalized tampon, and wherein in front of said tearing assembly when taking in consideration said processing direction, a further assembly is optionally available, which is intended for periodical weakening of the band prior to tearing, by which the length of longitudinal sections is defined, to which the band is then cut, characterized in that said tearing assembly comprises a stationary first pair of rollers (21', 21"), which are by circumferential velocity (v 1) rotated in opposite directions, as well as an oscillatory to and fro along the plane of transferring said absorbent band displaceable second pair of rollers (22', 22"), which are also rotated in opposite directions by constant circumferential velocity (v 2), wherein by said oscillatory displacing said second pair of rollers (22', 22") is during uniformly and continuously transferring said band between said pairs of rollers (21', 21"; 22', 22") by a velocity, which at least approximately corresponds to the circumferential velocity (v 1) of the first pair of rollers (21', 21"), in periodically repeating manner displaceable from its first terminal position, which is located adjacent to said first pair of rollers (21', 21"), to its second terminal position, which is located in said plane of transferring said sections of the band at a pre-determined distance apart from said first pair of rollers (21', 21"), and vice versa, and wherein by oscillating said second pair of oppositely rotating rollers (22', 22") the circumferential velocity (v 2) of them remains unchangeable, while the distance between said first terminal position and said second terminal position of the second pair of rollers (22', 22") is determined in such manner that during displacing of the second pair of rollers (22', 22") together with each particular section of the absorbent band as jammed there-between in a direction away from the first pair of rollers (21', 21") said absorbent band is just partially torn, upon which said partially torn band is introduced into said winding assembly, namely through the passage in the rotor as well as through the passage in the stator of each disposable winding unit, so that said band is completely torn by means of rotating said rotor of the winding assembly during the reverse displacement of the second pair of rollers (22', 22") towards the first pair of rollers (21', 21").
