Device for transferring items

摘要

The device is outstanding in that the gripping structures (1) are independent while each being servo-controlled by a system of components (10)-(9) fitted to a drive structure being likely to carry out the relative movement of gripping structures (1) with respect to one another in order to vary their pitch in a continuous manner so that their spacing is in register with that of the notches where the items should be transferred, the assembly of gripping structures being mounted on a support plate which can be moved in translation and height.
