Unit for transferring and up-ending sealed packages containing a pourable food product

摘要

There is described a unit for transferring and up-ending at least one sealed package containing a pourable food products, comprising: a rotary member which may rotate about a first axis; and at least one push member which is articulated onto rotary member and cooperates with a respective package to feed it along a first path, which extends from an infeed station to an out-feed station; push member comprising a push surface elongated along a first direction transversal to first axis and adapted to contact, in use, respective package in order to convey it along a first path; the orthogonal projection of first direction on a plane orthogonal to first axis being elongated along a second direction; direction is distinct with respect to a third direction, which is radial relative to first axis, at least at input station.

1. A unit for transferring and up-ending at least one sealed package containing a pourable food product, comprising:
a rotary member which may rotate about a first axis; at least one push member which is articulated onto said rotary member and cooperates with a respective said package to feed it along a first path, which extends from an infeed station to an out-feed station; said push member comprising a push surface elongated along a first direction transversal to said first axis and adapted to contact, in use, said respective package in order to convey it along the first path; a support member comprising a first portion which extends radially outward from said first axis and a second portion which extends transversally to said first portion and to which said push member is directly connected; an orthogonal projection of said first direction on a plane orthogonal to said first axis being elongated along a second direction; and said second direction being distinct with respect to a third direction, which extends radially outwardly from said first axis, at least at said infeed station.
