| 20130186042 | Apparatus For Inserting Articles Internally Of Boxes - An article inserting apparatus has a first thrust plate and a first abutting blade. A first straight guide is fixed to the frame. A first member has a second straight guide. A first linear motor moves a first rod bearing the first thrust plate in an alternating motion, with a second member slidable along the second straight guide. A second linear motor moves a second rod with the first abutting blade in an alternating motion. The apparatus has a third hinged member, a fourth hinged member, a fifth hinged member, and a sixth hinged member. The third and fifth hinged members rotate to move the first member and the second member in synchrony with the first conveyor and the second conveyor, the first thrust plate and the first abutting blade driven by the first and second linear motors to insert an article into a box. | 07-25-2013 |
| 20130186043 | Apparatus For Collecting A Tubular Box In A Flattened Configuration From A Store, For Opening-out The Tubular Box And For Transferring The Tubular Box Towards A Receiving Station Of The Tubular Box - An apparatus for collecting a flattened tubular box, for opening-out and transferring the tubular box towards a receiving station has a first member hinged to a frame, bearing first aspirating means. Second, third, and fourth hinged members and the frame forming a four- bar linkage. A fifth member, hinged to the fourth member, bears second aspirating means. An abutting member is arranged between the first member and the receiving station inferiorly of the tubular box. The apparatus is being designed such that when the tubular box is in the folding position, a second wall of the box can be intercepted by the second aspirating means and folded progressively with respect to the first wall, the first aspirating means disengage the first wall, and the box moved by the second aspirating means up to rest on the abutting member with a consequent complete opening-out of the tubular box. | 07-25-2013 |
| 20130199135 | Unit For Picking-Up A Tubular Blank In A Flattened Configuration And For Opening Out The Tubular Blank - A unit for picking-up a flattened tubular blank and for opening out the blank has gripping devices borne by a pick-up member, a frame, and a first arm hinged to the frame and to the pick-up member. A second arm is hinged to the frame, at a hinge axis being arranged at a lower height than the first arm hinge axis. A third arm is hinged to the second arm and which to the pick-up member. The first arm and the second arm are activatable in phase relation with one another. The unit is configured such that the pick-up member picks up the flattened tubular blank from the pick-up position (P), rests the tubular blank on a rest plane, and opening-out the tubular blank. The unit then moves the pick-up member towards the pick-up position (P), passing over the opened-out tubular blank. | 08-08-2013 |
