摘要:
The invention relates to a machine for orienting and aligning articles, of the type comprising orientation cavities (1) which can move along a closed path and which have an upper inlet for loading articles and an open base through which the articles can pass, a plurality of aligning conduits (3) which are arranged below the orientation cavities (1), means (5) for temporarily supporting the articles in the orientation cavities (1) and for dropping the articles into the conduits (3), and support and/or stop elements (6, 7, 8) in each of the orientation cavities (1). Each of the cavities comprises several seats or housings at different positions for receiving a first support and/or stop element (6) of the aforementioned support and/or stop elements (6, 7, 8), and retaining means for retaining said first support and/or stop element (6) in any of the seats or housings.
摘要:
Pneumatic conveyor for empty, lightweight bottles (1) of the kind incorporating a supporting flange (2) at an area of their neck (3), the said conveyor comprising bodies (12) arranged between a pair of supporting tracks (5) of the said flange (2) and a pair of higher tracks (11), the said bodies (12) comprising passageways (13) which communicate by one end with a pressurizable chamber (7) and by the other with blowing nozzles (6) which expel thrust air jets against the flange (2) of the bottles (1). The pressurizable chamber (7) is formed by a wrapping (8) easy to dismount, of a flexible and airtight material, such as a tarpaulin. The higher tracks (11) and bodies (12) are joined to the structure (4) by rigid means, while the tracks (5) are joined by elastic means allowing to withdraw the bound bottles (1). Obturating plates serve for regulating the air through the passageways 13.
摘要:
An adjustable unit for the unscrambling and lined up delivery of empty containers, said unit comprising a plurality of compartments (6) connected to a first rotary structure (7) to receive containers (A) in a lying position, said compartments (6) having an open bottom delimited by arrangements (11 and 12) for supporting the open end (A1) of the container (A) in the vicinity of the leading and trailing sides, a plurality of discharge chutes (8) associated to said structure (7) below each compartment (6) to receive the containers (A) as they fall, and to thus transfer them in an upright position and in a lined up arrangement onto another equipment, and a supporting stationary floor (9) interposed between said compartments (6) and said chutes (8), with a discharge gap (10), said arrangement for supporting the open end (A1) of the container (A) in the vicinity of said leading side of the compartment (6) comprising an elongated member (11) apt to be shifted within the compartment in order to thus adapt its position to the size of the container, all of the members (11) being associated to a second structure (14) that travels along with said first structure (7), the relative position of the second structure (14) with respect to the first structure (7) being adjustable.
摘要:
Method for carrying containers such as bottles and the like, and plant for its implementation the containers (10) being firstly uprightly oriented by means of positioning machines (11, 12), and then alternatively loaded on housing members (14) which move interfering with the outlet of the machines (11, 12), performing thereafter a transfer of containers (10), from the members (14), within elements (16) having a stable bottom, previously loaded on the members (14), and finally it is proceeded to take apart the set of containers (10) and elements (16) and move finally these sets (16, 10) to a conveyor (17) for its transfer to other machines for further treatments, for example to a bottling line and comprising a plant with a conveyor (15) having a sector (15a, 15b) which interferes with the outlet of containers (10) from upright orientation positioning machines (11, 12), the conveyor (15) has a plurality of linked members (14) to house the containers (10).
摘要:
An automated facility for the unscrambling of light, hollow, elongated articles (3) and for the lined up delivery of said articles such as empty plastic containers. Several article unscrambling and lining up units (1, 1a) are interconnected so as to deliver articles in a preunscrambled arrangement to discharge chutes (10) which convey said articles along a closed circuit with their bottom slidingly resting on a floor (12). These discharge chutes are delimited by a casing (11). A first opening is provided in said floor (12) and the casing (11) includes a second opening (39) next to said first opening. A conveyor (14) bearing a plurality of article receiver members (21a) is arranged to receive articles (3) from said chutes (10). The facility includes means to synchronize the speed of the conveyor (14) and of said unscrambler units (1, 1a) in such a way that each of said units (1, 1a) does cyclically discharge an article (3) into one of every n article receiver members of said conveyor, n being equal to the number of units (1, 1a) of the facility. The article receiver members already loaded with an article (3) are placed between the chutes (10), conveniently spaced, of the remaining units (1, 1a).
摘要:
Comprises a pre-orientating device (2) suitable for placing a plurality of articles (50) in the vertical position, randomly head up or head down, on a conveyor (1); detection means (3) for detecting the articles (50) that are in at least one of said positions, head up or head down, on conveyor (1); and ejection means (4) for selectively ejecting from conveyor (1) those articles (50) that are in one of said undesired head up or head down positions, on the basis on said detection. It optionally comprises reloading means (15) suitable for picking up those articles (50) that are ejected from conveyor (1) by ejection means (4), conveying them and loading them again into pre-orientating device (2).
