<p>The system for loading fruit packing trays (19) onto conveyors (10) consists of magazines (18) in which the trays are stacked, and arms (52) with gripper heads (54), pivoted to a frame. Each gripper head has a series of suction cups (70) connected to a suction pump (76), and each conveyor has a surface to receive the trays and a passage (17) for the arm and gripper head to pass through as they move between their tray pick-up and release positions. The passage is located between two separate belts of the conveyor, and the arms are positioned so that they travel in a plane perpendicular to the direction of the conveyor. <IMAGE></p> |
