发明名称 Transport tray
摘要 A transport tray for use in an installation for manufacturing food products, the installation having actuators. The transport tray has a chassis and a bottom having two panels mounted on the chassis, each having a first parallel edge and being able to move in rotation about a rotation axis parallel to the first edges between a transport position in which the distance between the first edges is less than the diameter of the fruit products and an unloading position in which at least one of the first edges is lowered so that the distance between the first edges is greater than the diameter of the food products. Each panel cooperates with an actuator for passing it from the transport position to the unloading position. Apparatus is provided to prevent lifting of the first edge of each panel beyond the transport position.

主权项 1. A transport tray (100) intended to be used in an installation (50) for manufacturing food products (10), said manufacturing installation (50) comprising actuators (60), the transport tray (100) being characterised in that it comprises: a chassis (104), a bottom (102a, 102b) around which said chassis (104) extends, said bottom consisting of two panels (102a, 102b) mounted on the chassis (104), each having a first edge (112a, 112b) parallel to and facing the first edge (112a, 112b) of the other panel (102a, 102b), each panel (102a, 102b) being able to move in rotation about a rotation axis (108a, 108b) parallel to said first edges (112a, 112b) between a transport position (FIG. 3) in which the distance between the first edges (112a, 112b) is less than a dimension of the food products (10) in a plane perpendicular to the direction of the first edges and an unloading position (FIG. 4, FIG. 5) in which at least one of the first edges (112a, 112b) is lowered so that the distance between the first edges (112a, 112b) is greater than said dimension of the food products (10), each panel (102a, 102b) being engaged and movable by one of said actuators (60) to move it from the transport position to the unloading position, the centre of gravity (110a, 110b) of each panel being disposed on another side of said rotation axis (108a, 108b) with respect to the first edge (112a, 112b) of said panel (102a, 102b) to facilitate a return of the panels to the transport position, and limitation means (114a, 114b, 116a, 116b) intended to prevent lifting of the first edge (112a, 112b) of each panel (102a, 102b) beyond the transport position, wherein the limitation means for each panel (102a, 102b) comprises a stop (114a, 114b) formed on or fixedly secured to the panel (102a, 102b), said stop (114a, 114b) being positioned to engage a support (116a, 116b) on the chassis (104) when the panel (102a, 102b) is moved to the transport position.
