摘要:
A transportable system for dispensing and boxing items is mounted to and enclosed by a truck. The system comprises at least two dispensing carts. Each cart includes a body, a set of wheels disposed on a bottom surface of the body, a set of bearings disposed on the top surface of the body, and an outlet defined by the body. At least one of the at least two dispensing carts is adapted to store a first set of items vertically and dispense the first set of items using an unpowered escapement and at least another one of the dispensing carts is adapted to store items horizontally. The system further comprises a box dispenser configured to dispense boxes and a conveyor system disposed beneath the outlets of the at least two dispensing carts. The conveyor system defines a continuous path for boxes from the box dispenser to an end location.

A unit and method for forming a group of products on a wrapping machine, whereby a continuous supply conveyor feeds a succession of products to an input of a group-forming screw device; and a step-operated supply device, located at an output of the screw device, is controlled by a sensor for detecting the length of each group, to only feed complete groups to a wrapping unit of the wrapping machine.

A glass accumulator includes a first pair and a second pair of helically threaded rotating shafts angled away from each other. The first and second pair of shafts are rotated in opposite directions to vertically displace glass sheets from a horizontal conveyor and accumulate the glass sheets at the top of the shafts. Angling the pair of shafts away from each other minimizes contact between surfaces of the helical threads and the glass sheets.

An article feeding device comprises means for rotatably supporting and driving a rotatable ring gear which is in rotatable meshing engagement with a plurality of circumferentially spaced planetary gears, preferably three equally spaced gears. The planetary gears are rotatably supported within a gear box on a shaft which is carried by a plate and it is arranged within a gear box which extends inwardly from the plate and may be swung about a pivotal axis corresponding to the axis of the planetary gear shaft. The gear box carries one or more idler gears which drives between the planetary gear and a driven gear carried on an article advancing drive shaft which also carries a parting knife and a rotatable article advancing member in the form of a cam having a screw groove for advancing the articles along the groove during rotation thereof. Articles such as flat can cover of any shape are arranged in a stack in a manner such that they are urged in a direction toward the rotational feeding member, for example, by gravity in the case of a vertical stack or by mechanical feeding in the case of a horizontal stack or when the device is to be employed for the feeding of the articles into a stack rather than out of a stack. The individual gear boxes may be swung so that all extend either further inwardly to define a small circle for engagement with the article to be fed or swung outwardly to define a larger engagement circle by a simple rotatable ring member which is connected to the gear box through a connecting rod and which may be rotated to shift all of the gear boxes simultaneously. Articles of non-circular configuration may also be fed by making an adjustment of the connecting rod length in respect to each individual gear box in order to vary the inner or outer position of one of the gear boxes and the associated feeding members. Each gear box also carries one or more idler gears which may be exchanged to provide variations in rotational feeding of the article advancing shaft and also provide for counter rotation of one of the advancing members in order to ensure for example that the articles are not rotated as they are fed.

A system for forming horizontally stacked groups of containers includes an infeed screw set, an orienting screw set, and a grouping mechanism. Containers are presented to the infeed screw in a vertical orientation, and are progressed from the infeed screw set to the orienting screw set via a transitioning pocket defined by overlapping pockets of the infeed and orienting screw sets. As containers are progressed through the orienting screw the containers are rotated via a series of orienting pockets to a horizontal orientation and progressed via a series of nesting pockets to form a series of horizontally nested containers. The series is discharged to a grouping mechanism which separates a predefined number of containers from the series to form a horizontally stacked group, which is outfed from the stacking system.

A storage device includes: a storage member having, in the vertical direction, a plurality of parallel storage sections that are capable of storing plate-like members; and a first lifting and lowering mechanism that causes the plate-like members, stored in the storage member, to move integrally in the vertical direction, while the position of the storage member in the vertical direction is maintained.

A unit for forming stacks of articles, the unit having a stacking device for forming the stacks, an input supply device for feeding the articles to the stacking device in a first supply direction, and an unloading assembly for unloading the stacks off the stacking device and feeding the stacks in a second supply direction perpendicular to the first supply direction.
