Abstract

712,388. Photo-electric control systems. ARNOLD, J. C. (Pneumatic Scale Corporation, Ltd.). Dec. 4, 1952, No. 30839/52. Class 40 (3) In a conveyer system in which articles produced by one machine are conveyed to a second machine so that if the first machine is quicker in operation than the second, containers accumulate on the conveyer, photo-electric means detect the accummulation and switch off the first machine. As shown, bottles filled in a machine 10 are fed to a conveyer 14 by a rotary transfer disc 20 and after passing along the conveyer are transferred to a capping machine by a further transfer disc 24. If the bottling machine is operating faster than the capping machine bottles accumulate on conveyer 14. At one side of the conveyer is mounted an elongated photo-electric cell 86 mounted in a light-tight housing 49 except for an opening behind which is positioned a lens 76. At the other side is a fluorescent tube 50 positioned behind a narrow elongated slit 68 and a lens 72. Thus a flat strip of light crosses the conveyer passing through the glass bottom of bottles positioned on conveyer 14 and being focused by lens 76 on to the photo-cell. If sufficient bottles are positioned between the source and the cell so much light is diffused that the photo-cell is unable to maintain a relay 89, which it feeds through an amplifier 88, closed. The relay drops out and de-energizes the driving motor of the bottle-filling machine. The relay will also be de-energized if a bottle falls sideways on to the conveyer.
