Toothbrush production by injection molding

摘要

Brush bodies (5) are extracted from the injection molding machine individually, arranging them in order as units in a receiver (6) for further operations. The receiver is taken to the next machine (3), where the bodies are taken out individually and supplied to it, in the correct position. An Independent claim is included for the processing equipment. Preferred Features: Many bodies are stacked above one another in the receiver. As each is inserted it is taken to its resting position. The receiver maintains a constant transfer position for the bodies, positioned in a vertical and/or horizontal orientation. After extraction from injection molding, cooling first takes place in an intermediate position, before placement in the receiver. The receiver is preferably filled with bodies of the same color; and appropriately sorted with others of differing color at the next machine.
