#CMT# #/CMT# Device for supporting a container by the neck (6) comprises a cylindrical base (8) with a peripheral channel (9) between a central core (10) and an outer wall (11) that is pierced with circular holes (12); a set of balls (13) in the channel, one for each hole, the balls having a larger diameter than the holes; and a spring (14) that forces the balls into the holes so that the balls partially project outside the holes to provide radial frictional contact with the inside of the neck. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for an installation for transporting necked containers, comprising a chain of transport devices, each equipped with a support device as above. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# The device is useful in installations for transporting necked containers, e.g. plastic bottles. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The device has a good tolerance for variations in the inside diameter of the neck. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a support device before insertion into the neck of a container. 6 : Neck 8 : Cylindrical base 9 : Peripheral channel 10 : Central core 11 : Outer wall 12 : Hole 13 : Ball 14 : Spring. #CMT#MECHANICAL ENGINEERING : #/CMT# Preferred Device: The holes and balls are arranged in two staggered rows. The spring comprises an annular cushion comprising three superposed elastic toroidal rings, the balls being lodged in the junctions between the rings. |
