Abstract: An air conveyor conveys bottle containers, the conveyor being constructed as a channel having a general, inverted-U-shaped configuration. The channel has a plurality of air ducts extending through the walls of the channel which communicate with a source of pressurized air to eject streams of air against the bottle containers being conveyed. The streams of air ejected from the ducts impinge upon the bottle containers to push the containers along the conveyor in the direction of travel. Each air duct has a first port opening, which emerges from the sidewall thereof below the pair of flanges, and a second port opening, which emerges from the sidewall thereof above the pair of flanges. The first port opening is a jet port configured to eject a stream of air against the bottle containers, and the second port opening is a vacuum port configured for drawing air from the channel.

Abstract: A bottle conveying and packaging system has guide tracks for guiding groups of bottles positioned adjacent one another in a transverse direction, from a grouping station to a packaging station. The guide tracks correspond in number to the transversely lying bottles in the groups, and the tracks engage beneath collars of the bottles located beneath the bottle closures thereof. The tracks have horizontal, upwardly inclined and downwardly inclined sections, and push rods on an endless belt are provided for pushing the groupings along the tracks from an incoming conveyor to the packaging station at which the bottles rest on a conveyor at that station where packaging material is fed, whereafter the packaged groupings are conveyed to a foil wrapping station.

Abstract: A buffer storage machine for a bottle conveyor line includes a drum 15 rotatably indexed in a frame 14 by a motor 17. A number of radial struts 20 extend outwardly from the drum casing 19, and together with longitudinal members 21, 22, angle brackets 23 and straightedges 25, define sector shaped slots 30 for storing a row of bottles. A pneumatic transport box 32 extends the length of the machine above the uppermost row, and is raiseable to enable drum rotation. The machine is interposed between a bottle manufacturing unit 2 and a bottle filling unit 4 with half of the rows filled and the other half empty, such that if either unit is temporarily stopped, the other unit can continue operating.

Abstract: The present invention provides a bottle packing apparatus wherein bottles are packed by simultaneous movement together of the array of bottles and the case. The bottles are packed from a conventional infeed conveyor and are divided into rows by the use of lane dividers. Bottle guiding plates define guiding channels which compress the rows of bottles toward the center of line of a conveyor. This compressed grouping of rows are then urged into a neck holding means which includes a suspension carriage carrying a first and second bar movable with respect thereto and defining bottle suspension slots for retaining the bottles in the neck area thereof. A sensing device is positioned adjacent the neck holding means which will initiate downward movement of the suspension carriage when the bottle suspension slots are sensed to a completely full condition and, simultaneously, a platform positioned therebelow carrying the case into which the bottles are to be packed moves upwardly for conflux movement between the suspension carriage and the platform. Once the bottles are placed in position within the case the first and second bars of the neck holding means separate releasing the bottles. The platform then moves downwardly and the suspension carriage moves upwardly for recycling.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a machine for making a plastic covering on a rigid base article which in the illustrated form comprises a glass bottle and a conforming shrunken plastic covering thereon. The plastic is fed in oriented sheet form to the turret apparatus, cut into lengths and wrapped and seamed on successive mandrels as sleeves. Bottles are simultaneously processed to preheat condition and indexed over the sleeves, the latter telescopically assembled on the rigid base article, i.e. the bottle, and the combination carried to a heat tunnel. The plastic sleeve shrinks into snug surface fit on the adjacent surface portion of the rigid base article. The bottle is preheated in one of two embodiments by: (1) a preheat tunnel on the machine which raises the bottles from room temperature to about 220*F, or (2) the preheat is carried over as latent heat in the glass bottle from the annealing lehr, a part of the bottle manufacturing process. The machine includes novel subassemblies comprised of (1) a bottle chuck and loading station for assuring proper loading of the bottles on the machine, (2) bottle handling, (3) plastic strip handling and feed mechanism for placing oriented cut lengths onto mandrels of the turret, (4) the turret for making seamed sleeves in succession and feeding them onto registered bottles carried by the bottle handling apparatus, and (5) unloading device for transfer of the covered bottles to a conveyor and with said transfer smoothening the bottom surface of the covering on the bottle.
