  • a location is defined according to two perpendicular directions.
  • the magazine 3 comprises a substantially horizontal laying plane 31 and at least one low back stop 32 and an upper back stop 33 defining a plane M on which resting each cutout bearing on said lower backstops 32 and 32 high.
  • the high backstop 33 is offset from said low backstop 32 towards the rear of the magazine 3 so as to present the cutouts 2 slightly inclined towards the rear of the magazine 3, the plane M then being inclined towards the rear of said magazine 3.
  • the removal zone 4 is such that its plane P is located at the rear and above the store 3.
  • the device 1 unstacking and locating in 2D further comprises positioning means 6 associated and preferably integral with the deposition area 4. Said positioning means 6 are arranged to position each deposit 2, when it arrives on the plane P of the cutting zone 4, in two perpendicular directions contained in said plane P and corresponding to the width and to the length of said blank 2.
  • the positioning means 6 preferably comprise two sets of longitudinal stop 63 - positioning actuator longitudinal 64, each being arranged to be disposed near the ends of the lengths of the blank 2 (Cf. figure 6 ).
  • the lateral and lateral alignment actuators 62 and 64 are preferably cylinders.
  • the gripping member 5 comprises a telescopic arm 51 advantageously suction cup type provided with a plurality of suction cups 52 at one of its ends and pivotally mounted about a first axis of rotation 53 substantially parallel to the plane M of the magazine 3 and the plane P of the removal zone 4, movable support means 54 cutouts 2 disposed on either side of said arm 51, and a crank 55 pivotally mounted at one of its ends around a second axis of rotation 56 substantially parallel to said first axis of rotation 53 and rotated by a drive member, for example of the electric motor type, not shown in the figures.
  • a drive member for example of the electric motor type
  • the arm 51 can also be rotatable by being pivoted about a point at its free end and rotated by a drive member, for example of the electric motor type, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
  • the unstacking and positioning device 1 in 2D operates in a cycle comprising the following steps.
  • the gripping member 5 grasps, using the suction cups 52, the cutout 2 located on the rear side of the magazine 3 in contact with the lower stops 32 and 33, and then extracts this cutout 2 3. To suppress the suction effect between two adjacent cuts 2, a movement back and forth of the arm 51 is sometimes necessary.
  • crank 55 pivots around the second axis of rotation 56 through the action of said drive member in the direction R + so as to rotate the gripping member 5 to transfer the cutout 2 to the right of the zone. deposit 4 of the packing machine, according to the figure 2 .
  • the term "to the right of the deposition zone 4" denotes a position in which the cutout 2 is located when it is located in a plane substantially parallel to the plane P of the deposition zone 4 and at a distance of less than 100 millimeters from said plane P.
  • the crank 55 continues to pivot to raise the arm 51 and begin to engage the cutout 2 between the positioning means 6. Simultaneously, the vacuum is cut to release the cutout 2 of the suction cups 52 and the support means 54 push the cutout 2 to bring it up to plane P , in accordance with the figure 3 .
