摘要:
A gripper for lifting a stack (30) of boxes, trays or such substantially rectangular articles, the gripper being provided with a gripper frame (11, 12; 51, 52) and two flat gripper leaves (21) which are movably connected to the gripper frame (11, 12; 51, 52) so as to be movable from an open position to a closed position, the gripper leaves (21) being substantially flat and each being provided near a lower end thereof with a carrying strip (20, 22), which carrying strip (20, 22) is hingedly connected to the gripper leaves (21) so as to be movable from a release position in which the carrying strip (20, 22) extends in the same plane as the associated gripper leaf (21) to a carrying position in which the carrying strip (20, 22) is substantially perpendicular to the gripper leaf (21) and is located between both gripper leaves (21), the gripper being provided with control means (14-19, 23) for controlling the gripper leaves (21) and the carrying strips (20, 22).
摘要:
A continuous motion apparatus (A) and method are disclosed where discrete, successive slugs of articles (15) are picked up by pick-up heads (22, 24) revolving in a vertical plane path, and are transferred over a linear transfer section (26) of that path to a case packing station (18). A vertical motion mechanism (20) lowers the pick-up heads at the case packing station (18) to gently place the slugs into indexed cases (28) in a reliable manner. The slugs, pick-up heads, and indexed cases are fed at the same predescribed intervals and at constant speeds. The slug feeder (B) includes a slug converyor (10) and a slug metering section (12). The size of the slug may be easily adjusted by providing an adjustable metering block (124) carried in the metering section which moves in and out of the conveyor path of the articles to meter the number of articles in a slug.

The invention relates to a synchronizing method and transfer arrangement for synchronizing the patterns of movement between two units included in a packaging line, where one unit is driven intermittently and the other continuously. The invention relates in particular to a transfer arrangement between an intermittently operating tube filler and a continuously operating cartoning machine. The transfer arrangement has a frame arrangement (13) intended to support tube pickers/placers (28) and arranged for a pivoting movement about a horizontal axis (16) and for a turning movement about a vertical axis (17). The turning movement about the axis (17) gives an acceleration course for the frame in a position in front of the tube release station, and this turning movement generating acceleration is obtained by means of an axially acting cam guide (32). The latter is designed so that the tube pickers/placers in the release position are given the same speed as the case conveyor of the cartoning machine.

The invention relates to a method of seizing and handling filled and closed, rectangular bag (10) or film packings (pouches) that comprise a bottom end and two lateral ends and that are provided with a bottom fold on their bottom end. Said pouches are positioned in a row in parallel to one another and stand upright on one of their lateral ends. The pouches are seized at their opposite (upper) lateral end with a comb-shaped gripping device that comprises finger-shaped gripping elements (22). Said gripping elements are displaced between the upper lateral ends of adjacent pouches by displacing said gripping elements in the longitudinal direction of the upper lateral ends, starting from the bottom end and advancing beyond said end, between adjacent lateral ends.

Das Verfahren zum Befüllen von Kartons mit länglichen Gegenständen, insbesondere mit Säulen ineinandergestapelter Kunststoffbecher, umfaßt eine Folge von Arbeitsschritten, durch welche die Gegenstände schichtweise schnell und störungsfrei in den Karton eingesetzt werden. Das Verfahren und die Vorrichtung eignet sich besonders für die Befüllung von Kartons, die mit einem Foliensack ausgelegt sind.
摘要:
Device for lowering an object and preferably a row of objects in dischargeable retaining members (3), which are movable vertically, the vertical distance over which the retaining members are lowered being adjustable without influencing the upper level from which the lowering starts and the fact that discharge always occurs in the lowermost position, a horinzontal shift of the retaining members being also adjustable.
