Abstract

1,235,429. Orienting closure caps. CONTINENTAL CAN CO. Inc. 4 Dec., 1969 [4 Dec., 1968], No. 59256/69. Heading B8S. Bottle caps are discharged from a hopper along guideway 14 in random orientation and normally meet a spring-loaded plate 45 to be discharged through a slot 17 back into the hopper. When, however, a cap C is positioned bottom upwards in the passageway, it is engaged by a pinwheel 30, mounted on arm 32, which carries it past the plate 45 and discharges it in uniform orientation down a discharge shoot 16 (not shown). Aperture 17 may be varied in size by displacement of a member 58, the aperture being closed if desired.
