Abstract:
Described is a device for feeding and dosing infusion or extraction product of a machine (100) for making filter bags (S) containing the infusion or extraction product comprising a space (2) for containing infusion or extraction product defined by an outer lateral wall (3) and by an inner lateral wall (4) comprising openings (7) for the passage of the product; a feeding chamber (6) made inside the inner lateral wall (4), communicating through the openings (7) with the containment space (2) and equipped with an outlet (8) leading outside the containment space (2); a shutter (9), which is movable inside the feeding chamber (6) at least between a closed lower end position (P1 ), wherein it occludes the openings (7), and an open upper end position (P2), wherein it allows the passage of the product from the containment space (2) to the feeding chamber (6) through the openings (7) towards the outlet (8) to fill the filter bags (S) being formed.
Abstract:
This invention provides a manufacturing method and apparatus that can manufacture a packaged body of a heat generating composition having a desired shape with high productivity. The manufacturing apparatus comprises a belt (56), which is provided on the upper inner side of a hollow cylindrical rotator (21) provided with a throughholes (35) in its circumferential direction and is traveled so as to cover the bottom side of the throughholes (35), a heat generating composition supply apparatus (2) for supplying a moldable heat generating composition from the outside of the throughholes (35), and a leveling part (7) for rubbing off the moldable heat generating composition on the opening side of the throughhole (35). The manufacturing apparatus is characterized in that the belt (56) is disposed, using a face connecting an abutted part of the leveling part (7) against the cylindrical rotator (21) to a rotation center as a reference, in the range of ?2 in the rotational direction side to ?3 in the opposite side of the rotational direction wherein ?2 and ?3 satisfy respective requirements of 0°
Abstract:
A filling device for multi-head dosing machines (10) adapted for the weighing and dosing of food products, or the like, to be packaged, having a substantially carousel-shaped form extending vertically and comprising a plurality of dosing heads (11) wherein said dosing heads (11) are positioned in a circular fashion outside a rotatable plate (12) on which the portions are positioned, above which a frame (14) is arranged, also of the carousel type with a diameter less than the plate (12), which comprises a plurality of mechanical linkages (15) kinematically connected to a respective plurality of movable blades (16), each of which is positioned at a respective dosing head.
Abstract:
Machines manufacturing pouches of a smokeless tobacco product or other cohesionless material, and systems for portioning and packaging tobamel type smoking mixtures, can be fitted with a flushing device that uses a number of spray nozzles (12, 31) positioned in close proximity to units (6, 30) by which the smokeless and smoking tobacco products are conveyed and processed; with the machine or system in operation, a cleansing fluid held in a tank (14, 33) is supplied under pressure to the nozzles (12, 31) by a pump (15, 34) and directed onto internal parts of the units (6, 30) in order to remove deposits of the product that tend to accumulate in the course of the processing steps, and thus avoid the need for frequent cleaning and maintenance stoppages.
