DEVICE FOR TRANSPORT OF BRISTLES FOR BRUSH PRODUCTION COMPRISING A BAFFLE PLATE WITH CONICALLY SHAPED VENTS

摘要

A transportation device for transferring bristles from one location to another location may comprise a tube system and a baffle plate comprising conically shaped vents. The baffle plate may be arranged at one end of the tube system in order to stop the movement of the bristles transported inside the tube system using airflow. Such a transportation system may be part of a device for automated production of brushes, in particular toothbrushes. A plurality of bristles can be transferred by such transportation system in order to be arranged in a pre-defined bristle pattern corresponding to a bristle field of a brush, in particular a tooth brush.
