1. A loading station comprising a loading region (1) which is accessible from a loading side (2) and machine side (3′), comprising:
two door elements (4, 5), each of the door elements spanning at least a third of a circle and having a ring gear positioned at a lower edge thereof; a guide (3) on which the door elements (4, 5) are movably mounted and configured to simultaneously move the door elements about a common axis to one of a machine position in which the door elements (4, 5) open the machine side (3′) and close the loading side (2) and a loading position in which the door elements (4, 5) open the loading side (2) and close the machine side (3′), and a coupling element coupling the movement of the door elements to each other, the coupling element having a first mesh gear and a second mesh gear positioned at opposing ends of an axel having a longitudinal axis traverse to the common axis about which the door elements move, the first mesh gear engaged with the ring gear of a first of the two door elements and the second mesh gear engaged with the ring gear of a second of the two door elements, the coupling element ensuring the door elements (4, 5) at least partially open only the machine side (3′) or loading side (2) at any one time by controlling the door elements (4, 5) to at least partially overlap in the loading position or the machine position such that the machine side or the loading side (3′, 2) only starts to open when the respective other side (2, 3′) has closed at least partially, wherein each of the door elements is moved, on the movement from the loading position into the machine position, more than 90°. |
