摘要

A driving mechanism of a plunger (10) of a molten glass feeder machine comprising an arm (13) on which at least one plunger (10) is installed. The arm (13) is attached to a supporting column (12) that is attached to a frame (1) in a sliding way. The supporting column (12) is connected with the use of a connecting rod (11) to a lever (8) attached to the frame (1) with a first pin (9). The lever (8) is connected with the use of a rod (7) to a crank (3) attached to the frame (1) with a second pin (2). A cam (6) connected to a motor is in contact with the crank (3). The motor of the cam (6) is a reversible motor which is connected to a control unit for controlling speed and/or path.
