<p>A device (1) for feeding tablets (3) in a blister packaging machine (7) includes a vibrating container (8) containing a mass (9) of tablets (3). The vibrating container (8) features a bottom wall (11), one portion of which is equipped with tablets (3) feeding channels (14), communicating with related slots (15) made in the bottom wall (11). The slots (15) communicate with the conveying means (16), which feed the tablets (3) along a predetermined feeding path (2) and release the tablets (3) into respective blisters (4) of a blister band (5). The blister band (5) moves in a determined direction (6) inside the packaging machine (7). The conveying means (16) include a plate (17) equipped with a plurality of grooves (18), arranged one beside another and a covering element (21). The covering element (21) is coupled with said plate (17), so as to move with respect thereto and is equipped with transversal wings (27), each of which is situated inside a respective groove (18) of the plate (17), so as to define a respective channel (19) for conveying said tablets (3). At least one covering element (21) is coupled with actuators (25) which drive the covering element (21) to oscillate alternately with respect to the plate (17), so as to facilitate the tablets (3) movement along the conveying channels (19). <IMAGE></p> |
