PACKAGING MODULE, MACHINE AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING AT LEAST TWO OPERATIONS ON FLEXIBLE CONTAINERS

摘要

The present invention relates to a packaging module for performing at least two operations on containers arranged in a row, said operations being after the formation of said containers. The module comprises at least two rotating operational wheels of vertical shafts, at least one of which is motor-operated, provided with corresponding means for carrying out the respective operations on the containers and a chain which, linked with the operational wheels, describes a closed trajectory. The angle of contact of the chain with the operational wheels is greater than 180° and the chain is provided with holding means for the suspension of the containers throughout their entire path and which means are operated by the relative movement of the chain with respect to another preferably static component.
