Abstract:
A conveyor for transporting products includes a mounting frame for one or more product feed lanes, each lane being defined by a respective conveyor belt which extends along a respective path, and by element for centering the products on the conveyor belt and including respective first and second lateral guides which are spaced from each other transversely to the direction of extension of the conveyor belt in order to define a track having a respective width. A unit for adjusting the distance between the guides are provided which includes a first transversal support and movement member for the corresponding lateral guide of the lane, and a second transversal support and movement member for the other lateral guide of the lane. Also provided is a respective transversal member for supporting the first and second support and movement members and a defining unit for fastening to the conveyor frame.
Abstract:
A unit (300) for the control or management of products, in particular packs, is preferably usable in a plant for making respective articles (11), in particular defined by rolls (111) of paper material, the plant (10) preferably comprising at least one operating line including at least one upstream section (1) for making the articles, in particular in the form of a log saw for cutting rolls off respective elongate logs, at least one respective packaging section (2), in particular for primary packaging, preferably in the form of a packing section where the articles or rolls are packed and preferably at least one or more further packaging sections, in particular in the form of at least one bagging section (3) where the packs are placed in bags and/or one palletizing section (4) where the packs or bags are placed on pallets; the plant comprising a conveying section (5), or means, by which the products are transported between one section of the plant and another, in particular between the means (1) which make the articles and the respective packaging section (2) and/or between one packaging section and another downstream; the plant being provided with process control means for controlling the functioning of the plant sections. The unit comprises means for detecting and/or lighting a respective face of the product or pack and which are adapted to produce different images of the respective product face, in particular which exhibit different states of reflection of the light that is incident upon the respective product face.
Abstract:
A device (10) for orienting tubular cores made of card for supporting rolls of toilet or kitchen paper includes elements for imparting an angular movement to each long item (11) in such a way that it is fed out of the device at a suitable angle. The elements for the angular orientation of the item (11) are designed to cause the item to be fed forward while keeping it substantially-transversal to the direction of feed and include first mobile members (12) for feeding a corresponding portion of the item (11) and extending along a respective path, which has a curved section (12a) , and second mobile members (14) for feeding a second portion of the item (11) and extending along a respective path having a curved section (14a) which is concentric with and radially inside the curved section (12a) of the first mobile feed members (12).
Abstract:
