Definitions
- the present invention relates to an automated handling line guide rail assembly for use on an automated handling line where containers are being processed.
- the present invention relates to an adjustable guide rail assembly whose position may be altered to define arcs of varying radii.
- a typical application of the present invention will be on a bottling line where a container such as a bottle may first be rinsed, then filled, capped and labelled. Each of these processes is generally performed by a separate machine at different locations along the automated handling line.
- the containers are conveyed between the various machines along generally rectilinear paths and are presented to and taken from the various machines along arcuate paths where the spacing between containers is regulated to match the required spacing of the processing machine by using a star wheel and guide rail assembly.
- a guide rail assembly defines the outer limit of an arcuate path along which the bottles are conveyed by the star wheel .
- a guide rail assembly generally comprises upper and lower guide rails that support a container at two heights.
- a star wheel is a rotating wheel of a generally star shape, the star shape being defined by a plurality of recesses that receive a container to be processed.
- the recesses are defined by the periphery of a pair of top and bottom plates and by pairs of opposed fingers that contact the containers.
- the star wheel rotates such that the first bottle presented to the star wheel is received within a recess and is contacted by the fingers.
- the container is then conveyed along a path defined by the star wheel and the guide rail that runs around and is spaced from the centre line of the path to be fed upon exit to a processing machine.
- the spacing of the recesses in the star wheel determine the spacing with which containers are passed to the machine .
- Any particular automated handling line is likely to process containers having a variety of different shapes and sizes. Traditionally, different shapes and sizes of containers have necessitated a range of different star wheels and guide rail assemblies having shapes and sizes to correspond to the particular containers that may be processed. A change of container required a time-consuming change in star wheels and guide rail assemblies.
- both the star wheel and the guide rail assembly are adjustable.
- the fingers of the star wheel rotate to allow larger containers to be received and the guide rail may also be moved closer to and further away from the star wheel .
- the centre point of the container is dictated by the centre point of the container. The reason for this is best illustrated by considering a filling machine that must pour liquid down the neck of a bottle. Clearly, the centre of the neck should be in the same position regardless of the size of the bottle.
- the guide rail comprises at least two segments, a first segment being driveable in a substantially radial direction and a second segment being connected to the first segment by a link such that the second segment follows movement of the first segment.
- a segmented guide rail is useful as it allows more flexibility over a single piece guide rail.
- the second segment is constrained to move radially by guide means.
- a segmented guide rail may otherwise suffer from the weakness that it is difficult to maintain its shape whilst being moved if it were not for the guide means employed in this invention.
- the guide means may comprise a post received within a slot, the slot being elongated radially. This arrangement allows radial movement of the guide rail .
- the first segment is constrained to move radially by further guide means.
- the further guide means may comprise a post received within a slot, the slot being elongated radially. This helps further to constrain motion of the guide rail to the radial direction.
- Figure 1 is a plan view of an automated handling line guide rail assembly according to the present invention
- Figure 2 is an isometric view of the guide rail assembly of Figure 1 from above and in front
- Figure 3 is an isometric view of the guide rail assembly of Figure 1 from above and behind
- Figure 4 is a plan view of the guide rail assembly of Figure 1, with the top plate removed
- Figure 5 is an isometric view of the guide rail assembly of Figure 1 from above and in front, with the top plate removed
- Figure 6 is an isometric view of the guide rail assembly of Figure T from above and behind, with the top plate removed
- Figure 7 is an isometric view of the guide rail assembly of Figure 1 from above and in front, with various parts removed to show other features of the invention.
- the middle segment 41 comprises a three tier element: the top 52 and bottom 54 tiers comprise plates at the heights of the top 16 and bottom 17 guide rails adjacent the left 40 and right 42 segments, whereas the middle tier comprises a longer plate that extends at each side into the gap separating the top 16 and bottom 17 guide rail portions 53 of the left 40 and right 42 segments.
- Middle tier 53 includes a tab 56 at its rear that has a pair of slots 58.
