Machine to gather number of flowers into bunches, uses contra-rotating conveyor systems, involves minimal human labor to operate

摘要

The operator places the stems (7) of individual blooms (16) into clamps (5) on a continuous transporter (9). The flowers pass along a horizontal transporter. At the end of the horizontal belt, the flowers tilt with their blooms downwards. A rotating carousel transporter (3) picks up the stems and assembles the flowers into bunches. The bunches are carried away by a transverse transporter.
