Method and machine for producing a muselet for bottles of effervescent drinks

摘要

The invention relates to a method for producing a Y-shaped muselet for bottles of effervescent drinks, said muselet comprising a cage co-operating with a rim, the cage being formed by a first (1) and a second (2) wire and the muselet by a third wire. According to said method, the formation of the cage includes: twisting one end of the first wire (1) over an area located approximately in the center of the second wire (2), the wires forming part of the same first plane and being oriented in such a way as to form an essentially right angle between the non-twisted end of the first wire and one of the free ends of the second wire, and to form an angle of about 135° between the free ends of the second wire; forming a first loop (5) on each free end of the first and second wires, in said first plane; forming a second loop (6) in a plane that is essentially perpendicular to the first plane, by folding; and folding the three wires at a certain distance from the twisting, in a plane essentially perpendicular to said first plane. Furthermore, a closed rim (3) is inserted such that it passes through the three loops by translation according to a direction essentially perpendicular to the first plane of the cage, and the three loops are closed by pressing in a direction parallel to said first plane. The invention also relates to a machine for implementing said method.

1. Method for manufacturing a Y-shaped muselet for bottles of effervescent drinks, the method comprising:
twisting one end of a first wire over a region situated approximately in a middle of a second wire, the first and second wires forming part of a same first plane and being oriented therein so as to form an approximate first right angle between a non-twisted end of the first wire and one of free ends of the second wire, and to form a second angle of approximately 135° between the free ends of the second wire; forming three first loops, one each at each free end of the first and second wires, in said first plane; forming three second loops, one each at each free end of the first and second wires, in a plane substantially perpendicular to the first plane, by folding; forming a cage from the first and second wires for cooperating with a rim formed by a third wire; and folding the three wires at a certain distance from said twisting step, in a plane substantially perpendicular to said first plane; wherein the rim with a closed periphery inserted and passed through the three second loops by translation in a direction substantially perpendicular to said first plane of the cage, and wherein the three second loops are closed by pressing their free ends in a direction parallel to said first plane.
