Machine for applying heat-sealable pilfer-proof discs e.g. to corked bottles of wine - has rotating elements associated with rotating shaft and adapted to guide bottles, keeping them mutually spaced, along circular-arc path, and number of pneumatic heads associated with rotating shaft

摘要

The machine comprises rotating elements associated with a rotating shaft (12) and adapted to guide the bottles, keeping them mutually spaced, along a first circular-arc path; and a number of pneumatic heads (21) which are also associated with the rotating shaft (12) and follow the bottles along the circular-arc path, moving from a position for picking up individual disks (DG) from a corresponding stack contained in a disc magazine (26) located to the side of the rotating elements (18), to a position for depositing the discs on individual and corresponding bottles which are fed continuously by a conveyor belt. The machine has a pair of fixed slotted cams (28-40) interacting with the pneumatic heads (21) to keep each head temporarily stationary above the stack of discs in order to pick up each one of the discs by suction and to make the heads follow each bottle along the corresponding path in order to pneumatically deposit the disc on the bottle.
