    摘要: A transport apparatus (1) for containers (2) and a method to hook/unhook a support (5) for containers (2) to/from a carriage (4). The apparatus comprises: a guide (3); a carriage (4) which is slidable along the guide (3); a support (5) which retains at least one container (2) and which can be coupled in a removable manner to the carriage (4); coupling means (6) for removably coupling the support (5) and the carriage (4), which coupling means (6) comprise a housing (7) and an engagement element (8) which are mutually shaped so that at least a portion of the engagement element (8) can be inserted into the housing (7). The engagement element (8) is housed in a relative seat (9) formed in the carriage (4) or in the support (5) and is movable between an operative position (A), in which the engagement element (8) protrudes from the seat (9) to be able to engage the housing (7) formed in the support (5) or in the carriage (4), and a non-operative position (B), in which the engagement element (8) is arranged retracted inside the seat (9). The apparatus (1) comprises control means (10) for controlling the engagement element (8) to move the engagement element (8) between the operative position (A) and the non-operative position (B).

    摘要: A filling machine (6) to fill bottles (1) for products of the pharmaceutical industry having: a filling conveyor (21), which moves a plurality of bottles (1) along a processing path and has a plurality of pockets (25), each designed to house a corresponding bottle (1); a first weighing station (S1) arranged along the processing path and in which the empty bottles (1) are weighed; a filling station (S2) along the processing path and in which a predetermined quantity of product (2) is fed into each bottle (1); and a second weighing station (S3) along the processing path and in which the full bottles (1) are weighed. The filling conveyor (21) has: an annular guide (22), which is arranged in a fixed position along the processing path; a plurality of slides (23), each supporting at least one corresponding pocket (25) and being coupled to the guide (22) so as to freely slide along the guide (22); and a linear electric motor (26), which moves the slides (23) carrying the pockets (25) along the processing path and comprises an annular stator (27), which is arranged in a fixed position along the guide (22), and a plurality of movable sliders (28), each electrically-magnetically coupled to the stator (27) so as to receive, from the stator (27), a driving force and rigidly connected to a corresponding slide (23).

    摘要: A filling station (1) for containers (C) of the pharmaceutical field, comprising: a conveyor (2) for conveying containers (C); a filling head (3) comprising at least a dispensing nozzle (30) which can assume the filling configuration (F); at least a washing collector (4) comprising an opening (40); the dispensing nozzle (30) can be coupled to the washing collector (4) for dispensing a washing fluid in the washing collector (4). In particular, the filling head (3) is automatically movable from the filling configuration (F) to a washing configuration (S), where the respective dispensing nozzle (30) is at the opening (40) of the washing collector (4) for filling the washing collector (4) with the washing fluid through the opening (40), and vice versa.
