Wile G 'applies, in particular, the handling of batches of identical objects, such as food products, packaging in boxG, in potG, in bottles or others and often in batches. We think, for example, of jars of cream or other dairy products. However, the invention can find applications in the handling of very diverse articles. PRIOR ART AND POS problem In the field of food processing industries, the packaging of many products is carried out in very diverse containers, such as plastic containers, jars, bottles. These objects are presented in batches poGitionndG horizontally, but entasG6G on

Or, la fin de la chaie de fabrication, il eGt ndcessaire d'emballer ces lots contenanL plusieurG objetG identiques dans des caiG8es d'emballage de transport. A cet effet, il existe deja des encaisseuses, qui vent des machines capables de prendre, les uns apres les autres, des lots d'objets prepositionnes et de les transferer a l'interieur de la caisse de transport, afin d'expedier cette derriere, However, at the end of the production line, it is necessary to package these lots containing several identical objects in transport packaging boxes. For this purpose, there are already case packers, which sell machines capable of taking, one after the other, batches of prepositioned objects and transferring them inside the transport crate, in order to dispatch this behind ,

On connalt un certain type d'encaisseuses utilisant un bras de manutention monte pivotant autour d' un axe horizontal a l' extremite duquel se trouvent des moyens de prehension. Ces derniers saisissent un lot diobjets, lorsque le bras est dans une premiere position horizontale. Celui-ci effectue une rotation de , pour se retrouver horizontal, l'extremite portent We know a certain type of case packers using a handling arm mounted to pivot about a horizontal axis at the end of which there are gripping means. The latter grab a batch of objects, when the arm is in a first horizontal position. This one makes a rotation of, to find itself horizontal, the extremity carry
les moyens de prehension ayant parcouru un demi-cercle. the gripping means having traversed a semicircle.
Le lot d'objets se trouve alors au-dessus diune caisse dans laquelle il doit etre depose. Un prolongement de quelques degree de la rotation du bras de manutention permet de descendre pratiquement verticalement le lot d'objets dans la caisse. Or, si celle-ci est trop profonde, le prolongement de la rotation ne provoque plus une trajectoire sensiblement verticale, mais qui s'oblique de plus en plus et qui ne correspond pas a une descente verticale du lot d'objets au fond d'une The lot of objects is then above a box in which it must be placed. A few degree extension of the rotation of the handling arm allows the batch of objects to be lowered practically vertically into the crate. However, if it is too deep, the extension of the rotation no longer causes a substantially vertical trajectory, but which becomes more and more oblique and which does not correspond to a vertical descent of the batch of objects at the bottom of a
caisse profonde.deep box.
La figure 1 illustre, entre autre, ce cast En effet, en considerant un levier de manutention 3 monte pivotant, par une premiere extremite 3A, autour d'un axe de rotation A, si ce dernier est fixe en un point A1, la rotation du levier de manutention 3 amenera la deuxieme extremite 3B a decrTre un arc de cercle C2 se detachant de plus en plus d'un axe vertical V1 qui tangente le cercle C2. En imaginant que cet axe vertical V1 definit ltendroit de la caisse dans laquelle un lot d'objets doit etre place par des moyens de prehension places au bout de la deuxieme extremite 3B du levier de manutention 3, il est facile de comprendre le probleme pose par la grande profondeur d'une caisse 4 placee au niveau de la direction verticale V1. Si la caisse n'est pas deplacee lateralement, il n'est pas possible de placer les Figure 1 illustrates, among other things, this cast In fact, considering a handling lever 3 swivels up, by a first end 3A, around an axis of rotation A, if the latter is fixed at a point A1, the rotation of the handling lever 3 will bring the second end 3B to decrease the arc of a circle C2 detaching itself more and more from a vertical axis V1 which tangents the circle C2. By imagining that this vertical axis V1 defines the location of the box in which a batch of objects must be placed by gripping means placed at the end of the second end 3B of the handling lever 3, it is easy to understand the problem posed by the great depth of a box 4 placed at the level of the vertical direction V1. If the box is not moved laterally, it is not possible to place the

Le but de l' invention est done de remedier a cet inconve:lient en proposant un syster:!c^- de manutention et d'encaissage d'objets permettant de deposer successivement plusieurs objets ou plusieurs lots d'objets, les uns sur les autres, dans une caisse relativement profonde, en utilisant un bras de The object of the invention is therefore to remedy this drawback: by proposing a syster:!

Resume de l' invention A cet effet, ['objet principal de l' invention est un systeme de prise d'objets a partir d'un premier endroit et de depose verticalement des memes objets a un deuxieme endroit, le systeme comprenant principalement un bras de manipulation pivotant autour d'un axe de pivotement horizontal place a une premiere extremite et possedant des moyens de saisie et de relachement des objets places a une deuxieme extremite du bras, qui pivote d' environ 180 autour de l'axe de pivotement, la deuxieme extremite passant ainsi du premier endroit au deuxieme endroit par une trajectoire semi-circulaire. Selon l' invention, apres le pivotement de 180 du bras de manipulation, l'axe de pivotement se deplace pour que la deuxieme extremlte de ce bras de manipulation ait une trajectoire rectiligne verticale, apres le pivotement de 180 . Ceci est effectue de maniere a pouvoir deposer, apres le pivotement de 180 , un ou plusieurs objets selon une trajectoire verticale, SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION To this end, the main object of the invention is a system for picking up objects from a first place and vertically depositing the same objects at a second place, the system mainly comprising an arm handling pivoting about a horizontal pivot axis placed at a first end and having means for gripping and releasing objects placed at a second end of the arm, which pivots about 180 around the pivot axis, the second end thus passing from the first place to the second place by a semi-circular trajectory. According to the invention, after the pivoting of the manipulation arm by 180, the pivoting axis moves so that the second end of this manipulation arm has a vertical rectilinear trajectory, after the pivoting of 180. This is done in such a way as to be able to deposit, after the pivoting of 180, one or more objects along a vertical trajectory,
notamment dans une caisse profonde.especially in a deep box.
La realisation principale du systeme selon ['invention prevoit que l'axe de pivotement est place a une premiere extremite mobile inferieure d'un balancier suspendu par sa deuxieme extremite superieure a un bati fixe d'une machine, telle qu'une encaisseuse, de maniere a ce que l'axe de pivotement decrive une portion de trajectoire circulaire, et une came de trajectoire determinee dans laquelle un point de commande du bras de manipulation est assujetti pour que la deuxieme extremite du bras de manipulation decrive ladite trajectoire rectiligne verticale, apres le The main embodiment of the system according to the invention provides that the pivot axis is placed at a first lower mobile end of a pendulum suspended by its second end superior to a fixed frame of a machine, such as a case packer, in such a way that the pivot axis describes a portion of circular trajectory, and a determined trajectory cam in which a control point of the manipulation arm is secured so that the second end of the manipulation arm describes said vertical rectilinear trajectory, after the
pivotement de 180 du bras de manipulation. 180 rotation of the manipulator arm.
Dans ce dernier cas, il est preferable que le point de commande soit place entre les deux extremites du bras de manipulation, la came de trajectoire etant alors constituee en partie d'une rainure circulaire dont le debut de trajectoire est vertical et la suite orientee vers le teas et s'ecartant de la position In the latter case, it is preferable that the control point is placed between the two ends of the manipulation arm, the trajectory cam then being formed in part of a circular groove whose trajectory start is vertical and the continuation oriented towards the teas and departing from the position

Dans ce dernier cas, le point de commande est avantageusement realise par un roulement a billes qui vient s'inserer dans la rainure a la fin de la trajectoire circulaire de la deuxieme extremite du bras de pivotement, l' axe de pivotement etant materialise par une base pivotante du bras de manipulation equipee de trots roulements a billes definissant un cercle de pivotement et s'appuyant sur un cercle correspondent de la surface d'une came de pivotement solidaire des cames de trajectoire realisees toutes les trots dans une meme In the latter case, the control point is advantageously produced by a ball bearing which is inserted in the groove at the end of the circular path of the second end of the pivot arm, the pivot axis being materialized by a swivel base of the manipulating arm equipped with trots ball bearings defining a pivoting circle and resting on a corresponding circle of the surface of a pivoting cam integral with the path cams carried out all the trots in the same

Dans le cas ou on utilise le systeme avec le balancier, il est avantageux d'utiliser comme moyen moteur, un moteur place sur le balancier pour faire In the case where the system is used with the balance, it is advantageous to use as motor means, a motor placed on the balance to make

Touj ours dans le cas de l'encaisseuse, il est egalement avantageux de disposer de moyens d' orientation des objets constitues d'un bras d' orientation dont une premiere extremite est montee coulissante par rapport a des moyens de guidage rectilignes, places dans le meme plan que l' axe de pivotement et le long d'une droite de symetrie par rapport aux deux endroits et une deuxieme extremite definissant l' orientation des objets par son orientation. Dans ce dernier cas, il est avantageux dintiliser un verin de blocage et de deblocage en position des moyens de saisie et de relache, le bras Always in the case of the case packer, it is also advantageous to have means for orienting objects made up of an orienting arm, the first end of which is slidably mounted relative to rectilinear guide means, placed in the same plane as the pivot axis and along a line of symmetry with respect to the two places and a second end defining the orientation of objects by its orientation. In the latter case, it is advantageous to use a blocking and unblocking cylinder in the position of the gripping and releasing means, the arm

Description detaillee d'une realisation de Detailed description of a realization of
l' invention En revenant a la figure 1, ou un principe de l'art anterieur a ete represente en traits forts et expose prealablement, le principe du systeme selon l' invention est represente en traits mixtes. En effet, on peut constater que le balancier 2 est monte pivotant par rapport au bati fixe de la machine. En consequence, l'axe de pivotement A se dpla e selon une partie du cercle C1 dont le centre est le point de pivotement du balancier 2 entre les points A1 et A2. En consequence, meme si le bras de manipulation 3 continue sa rotation autour de l'axe de pivotement A, de maniere a ce que sa deuxieme extremite 3B descende en dessous de la premiere extremite 3A, il est possible de faire suivre, pendant une bonne partie de la rotation du bras de manipulation 3, la deuxieme extremite 3B, selon une The invention Returning to FIG. 1, where a principle of the prior art has been shown in strong lines and explained previously, the principle of the system according to the invention is shown in phantom. Indeed, it can be seen that the pendulum 2 is mounted to pivot relative to the fixed frame of the machine. Consequently, the pivot axis A moves along a part of the circle C1, the center of which is the pivot point of the pendulum 2 between the points A1 and A2. Consequently, even if the handling arm 3 continues to rotate about the pivot axis A, so that its second end 3B descends below the first end 3A, it is possible to make it follow, for a good part of the rotation of the handling arm 3, the second end 3B, according to a
trajectoire verticale, le long de l'axe vertical V1. vertical trajectory, along the vertical axis V1.
C=.te trajectoire verticale ne peut etre qu'arretee qu'apres une distance egale a la longueur du bras de pivotement 3 ou avant si l'axe vertical V1 ne croise This vertical path can only be stopped after a distance equal to the length of the pivot arm 3 or before if the vertical axis V1 does not cross
pas le cercle C1 de pivotement du balancier 2. not the swinging circle C1 of the pendulum 2.
Le systeme selon l' invention est done base sur le deplacement du point de pivotement A1 du bras de manipulation 3 en direction de l'axe vertical V1 representant ltendroit ou on desire deposer les objets The system according to the invention is therefore based on the displacement of the pivot point A1 of the manipulation arm 3 in the direction of the vertical axis V1 representing the place where one wishes to deposit the objects
dans une caisse profonde 4.in a deep box 4.
La figure 2 montre les quelques pieces qui rentrent en jeu fonctionnellement pour obtenir le deplacement du bras de manipulation, tel qu'il vient d'etre decrit et represente a la figure 1, en traits mixtes. Ces pieces vent principalement le bras de manipulation 10 et une piece de cames 20 comprenant deux cames de trajectoires 21A et 21B placees chacune a une extremite de la surface de la piece de cames 20 et une came de pivotement 22 placee au centre de la piece de cames 20. En fait, cette came de pivotement 22 est centree par rapport a la position initiale de l'axe de Figure 2 shows the few parts that come into play functionally to obtain the displacement of the handling arm, as it has just been described and shown in Figure 1, in phantom. These pieces mainly wind the handling arm 10 and a cam piece 20 comprising two trajectory cams 21A and 21B each placed at one end of the surface of the cam piece 20 and a pivoting cam 22 placed in the center of the piece. cams 20. In fact, this pivoting cam 22 is centered relative to the initial position of the axis of
pivotement A du bras de manipulation 10. pivoting A of the handling arm 10.
Les deux cames de trajectoires 21A et 21B vent constituees chacune diune rainure dont les trajectoires incurvees s'inversent au meme niveau horizontal que celui de l'axe de pivotement A ou elles vent verticales. Les parties superieures 21AS et 21BS, chacune des deux cames de trajectoire 21A et 21B s'incurvent vers le haut et vers le centre de la piece de came 10 en amor,cant une trajectoire circulaire concentrique au point A1 ou se trouve initialement l'axe de pivotement A. De leur cote, les parties 2C inferieures 21AI et 21BI des deux cames de trajectoires 21A et 21B s ' ecartent du point A1 ou se trouve initialement l'axe de pivotement A, vers le teas en amor,cant une trajectoire circulaire, de meme rayon que celui de la trajectoire amorcee par les parties superieures 21AS et 21BS des deux cames de trajectoires The two trajectory cams 21A and 21B wind each consist of a groove, the curved trajectories of which reverse at the same horizontal level as that of the pivot axis A where they wind vertically. The upper parts 21AS and 21BS, each of the two trajectory cams 21A and 21B curve upwards and towards the center of the cam piece 10 in amor, cant a concentric circular trajectory at the point A1 where the axis is initially located pivot A. On their side, the lower parts 2C 21AI and 21BI of the two cams of trajectories 21A and 21B deviate from the point A1 or is initially the pivot axis A, towards the teas en amor, cant a circular trajectory , of the same radius as that of the trajectory initiated by the upper parts 21AS and 21BS of the two trajectory cams
21A et 21B.21A and 21B.
Les trajectoires des deux rainures constituent les deux cames de trajectoires 21A et 21B ont ete determinees graphiquement, en respectant les mouvements du bras de manipulation 3 de la figure 1, selon les trajectoires et les positions en traits mixtes. En effet, les cames de trajectoires 21A et 21B vent destinees a guider un point de commande P materialise par un roulement a billes 14, place entre les deux extremites du bras de balancement que constitue une base pivotante 11 et une extremite 15. En tenant compte que la trajectoire rectiligne verticale V1 de la figure 1 doit etre parcourue par l'extremite 15 du bras de manipulation 10, et plus exactement par un axe de manipulation B. il est possible de se rendre compte que le deplacement du point de commande P correspond a celle de la came de trajectoire 21B. De plus, l'axe de pivotement A a commence a se deplacer dans une petite distance AA par rapport au point A1, selon une trajectoire circulaire decrite par le cercle C1 de la The trajectories of the two grooves constitute the two trajectory cams 21A and 21B have been determined graphically, respecting the movements of the manipulation arm 3 of FIG. 1, according to the trajectories and the positions in phantom. Indeed, the trajectory cams 21A and 21B wind intended to guide a control point P materialized by a ball bearing 14, placed between the two ends of the rocking arm which constitutes a pivoting base 11 and an end 15. Taking into account that the vertical rectilinear trajectory V1 of FIG. 1 must be traversed by the end 15 of the manipulation arm 10, and more exactly by a manipulation axis B. it is possible to realize that the displacement of the control point P corresponds to that of the trajectory cam 21B. In addition, the pivot axis A has started to move in a small distance AA from the point A1, along a circular path described by the circle C1 of the
figure 1.figure 1.
Pour permettre le deplacement de l'axe de pivotement A selon ce cercle C1 et le maintien de la base pivotante 11 du bras de manipulation 10 dans la piece de cames 20, cette derriere possede une came de pivotement 22 constituee d'une surface en grande partie circulaire concave, susceptible d'accueillir en trots points trots roulements 12 de la base pivotante 11 et definissant un cercle concentrique a l'axe de pivotement A. Loreque le bras de manipulation 10 est vertical, ces trots roulements 12 vent appuyes sur la To allow the displacement of the pivot axis A along this circle C1 and the maintenance of the pivoting base 11 of the manipulation arm 10 in the cam piece 20, the latter has a pivot cam 22 constituted by a large area concave circular part, capable of accommodating in trots points trots bearings 12 of the pivoting base 11 and defining a concentric circle to the pivot axis A. When the handling arm 10 is vertical, these trots bearings 12 are supported on the
surface constituee par la came de trajectoire 22. surface formed by the trajectory cam 22.
Lorsque le bras de pivotement 10 a pivote, l'un d'entre eux quitte cette came de trajectoire 22 et seulement deux roulements 12 vent en contact de la surface de la came de trajectoire 22, puis un seul. Dans ce dernier cas, la base 11 a plusieurs degree de liberte, ce qui permet le deplacement de l'axe de pivotement A. Afin de limiter le basculement du bras de pivotement 10, on peut prevoir des encoches 23 aux deux extremites de la When the pivoting arm 10 has pivoted, one of them leaves this trajectory cam 22 and only two bearings 12 wind in contact with the surface of the trajectory cam 22, then only one. In the latter case, the base 11 has several degrees of freedom, which allows the displacement of the pivot axis A. In order to limit the tilting of the pivot arm 10, it is possible to provide notches 23 at the two ends of the
came de trajectoire 22.trajectory cam 22.
La figure 3 montre quelques elements supplementaires intervenant dans ['application du systeme selon l' invention a une encaisseuse materialisee par un bati fixe 1. Ce type de machine sert a mettre dans une caisse profonde 4 des objets ou Figure 3 shows some additional elements involved in the application of the system according to the invention to a case packer materialized by a fixed frame 1. This type of machine is used to put in a deep box 4 objects or
lots di objets sortant d' une chatne de fabrication. lots of objects coming out of a manufacturing chain.
On retrouve, sur cette figure 3, la piece de cames 20, dans la rainure de gauche 21B de laquelle coulisse le point P du bras pivotant 10, materialise par le roulement a billes 14. Le bras pivotant 10 est monte tournant autour de l'axe de pivotement A situe a We find, in this figure 3, the cam piece 20, in the left groove 21B from which slides the point P of the pivoting arm 10, materialized by the ball bearing 14. The pivoting arm 10 is mounted rotating around the pivot axis A located at
l'extremite inferieure du balancier 2. the lower end of the pendulum 2.
On utilise egalement un double pantographe 6 monte sur le bati 1 de la machine pour maintenir horizontaux les moyens de saisie et de relachement 8 du A double pantograph 6 is also used mounted on the frame 1 of the machine to keep the gripping and release means 8 of the machine horizontal.

L'ensemble du systeme est montre dans une The whole system is shown in a
position ou le bras de manipulation 10 est horizontal. position where the handling arm 10 is horizontal.
Il faut considerer qu'il vient d'effectuer une rotation de 180 autour de l'axe de pivotement A par une trajectoire circulaire. Le roulement a billes 14 du point de commande P vient de penetrer dans la rainure de gauche 21B par le haut et se trouve a un endroit ou celle-ci inverse les courbures. Ce point de commande P It must be considered that it has just made a rotation of 180 around the pivot axis A by a circular trajectory. The ball bearing 14 of the control point P has just penetrated into the left groove 21B from above and is located at a place where the latter reverses the curvatures. This control point P
va done etre sollicite dans une trajectoire inversee. will therefore be requested in an inverted trajectory.
La figure 4 montre la suite du deplacement du bras de manipulation 10. En effet, le point P continu sa trajectoire, guide par son roulement a billes 14 dans la rainure de gauche 21B, en s'ecartant de plus en plus du centre de la piece de cames 20 correspondent au point A1 (ne figurant pas sur cette figure 4). L'axe de pivotement A materialise par la base pivotante 11 du bras de manipulation 10 a commence a se deplacer le long du cercle C1. Le point de manipulation B place a l'autre extremite 15 du bras de manipulation 10, suit alors une trajectoire verticale rectiligne correspondent a l'axe V1, symbolisant l' emplacement de FIG. 4 shows the continuation of the displacement of the manipulation arm 10. In fact, the point P continues its trajectory, guided by its ball bearing 14 in the left groove 21B, moving away more and more from the center of the cam piece 20 corresponds to point A1 (not shown in this figure 4). The pivot axis A materialized by the pivoting base 11 of the handling arm 10 has started to move along the circle C1. The manipulation point B placed at the other end 15 of the manipulation arm 10, then follows a rectilinear vertical trajectory corresponding to the axis V1, symbolizing the location of
la caisse 4.the box 4.
On constate que touj ours deux roulements a billes 12 de la base pivotante 11 du bras de manipulation 10 vent en contact avec la surface de la came de trajectoire 22. Neanmoins, l'un d'eux est arrive dans une encoche 23 de celle-ci. Le mouvement du systeme est alors arrete. Les moyens de saisie et de relachement 8 des objets vent restes horizontaux, grace It is found that always two ball bearings 12 of the pivoting base 11 of the manipulation arm 10 wind in contact with the surface of the trajectory cam 22. Nevertheless, one of them has arrived in a notch 23 in this one. this. The movement of the system is then stopped. The means of seizure and release 8 of the objects remain horizontal, thanks
au pantographe 6.pantograph 6.
La figure 5 montre des moyens d' orientation maintenus par les moyens de saisie et de relachement du systeme applique a une encaisseuse. On a represente schematiquement deux caisses, une premiere 41 en traits forts et une deuxieme 42 en traits mixtes. En correspondence, vent representes les elements de ces moyens d' orientation constitues principalement d'un bras d'orientation 30. Celui-ci est monte, par une premiere extremite 30A, coulissant dans deux moyens de guidage 31 dans lesquels coulisse un axe de coulissement 32 solidaire de cette premiere extremite A. La deuxieme extremite 30B de l'axe d' orientation est porteuse des moyens de saisie et de relachement des objets. Toutefois, le bras d' articulation 30 est assujetti aux mouvements du systeme selon l' invention, selon un axe D definit, entre autres, par le mouvement du balancier 2, schematise sur les autres figures. En consequence, lorsque le bras de manipulation passe du premier au deuxieme endroit, ctest-a-dire d'une caisse 41 a l'autre 42, il oblige le bras d' orientation 30 a se deplacer le long de l'axe D par un point fixe materialise par une barre de pivotement FIG. 5 shows means of orientation maintained by the gripping and releasing means of the system applied to a case packer. We schematically represent two boxes, a first 41 in strong lines and a second 42 in phantom. In correspondence, wind represents the elements of these orientation means consisting mainly of an orientation arm 30. The latter is mounted, by a first end 30A, sliding in two guide means 31 in which a sliding axis slides. 32 integral with this first end A. The second end 30B of the orientation axis is carrying means for gripping and releasing objects. However, the articulation arm 30 is subject to the movements of the system according to the invention, along an axis D defined, inter alia, by the movement of the pendulum 2, shown diagrammatically in the other figures. Consequently, when the handling arm passes from the first to the second place, that is to say from one box 41 to the other 42, it forces the orientation arm 30 to move along the axis D by a fixed point materialized by a pivot bar
36 solidaire du systeme selon l' invention. 36 secured to the system according to the invention.
On remarque que, entre les deux positions representees sur cette figure 5, l'extremite 3OB du bras d' orientation 30 a fait un changement d' orientation de 90 . La position intermediaire du bras d' orientation 30 a ete egalement representee en traits mixtes. Ces moyens d' orientation vent debrayables en ce sens qu'un verin 34 de blocage et de deblocage permet de retracter les moyens de guidage 31 par rapport a la barre de guidage 32. Les moyens de saisie et de It is noted that, between the two positions represented in this FIG. 5, the end 3OB of the orientation arm 30 has made an orientation change of 90. The intermediate position of the orientation arm 30 has also been shown in phantom. These wind orientation means disengageable in the sense that a blocking and unblocking cylinder 34 makes it possible to retract the guide means 31 relative to the guide bar 32. The means for gripping and
relachement vent alors libres dans leur orientation. relaxation then free in their orientation.
La figure 6 montre l' adaptation du systeme selon l' invention a une encaisseuse avec les moyens d'orientation decrits a la figure 5. Concernant ceux-ci, on volt que le verin 34 est monte pivotant par rapport au chassis 1 de la machine. L'extremite de sa tige 35 est montee articulee par rapport a une structure porteuse des moyens de guidage 31 dans laquelle coulisse la barre de guidage 32. Le bras d' orientation 30 est. en fait, constitue en deux parties, pour obtenir la rigidite necessaire de ['ensemble de la structure. Son extremite 3OB, porteuse des moyens de saisie et de relachement 3, est en fait une piece rapportee sur la partie inferieure du bras d' orientation 30. Le double pantographe 6 est egalement represente. Dans sa partie inferieure, il est relic mecaniquement a l'extremite pivotante 15 du bras de Figure 6 shows the adaptation of the system according to the invention to a case packer with the orientation means described in Figure 5. Regarding these, we see that the cylinder 34 is pivotally mounted relative to the chassis 1 of the machine . The end of its rod 35 is mounted articulated with respect to a support structure of the guide means 31 in which the guide bar 32 slides. The orientation arm 30 is. in fact, consists of two parts, to obtain the necessary rigidity of the whole structure. Its end 3OB, carrying the gripping and release means 3, is in fact an attached piece on the lower part of the orientation arm 30. The double pantograph 6 is also represented. In its lower part, it is mechanically connected to the pivoting end 15 of the arm of
manipulation 10.handling 10.
Ce dernier est monte autour de l'axe de pivotement A1, place a l'extremite inferieure du balancier 2. Celui-ci est constitue d'un caisson comprenant un moteur 25 entralnant un systeme de transmission 26 pour entralner en rotation l'arbre de manipulation 10. La piece de came est placee verticalement. L'axe de manipulation 10 est equipe d'un axe de guidage 19 permettant de loger la piece de cames The latter is mounted around the pivot axis A1, placed at the lower end of the pendulum 2. The latter consists of a box comprising a motor 25 driving a transmission system 26 to drive the shaft of rotation handling 10. The cam piece is placed vertically.
