The machine in question has modular elements which consist, in a first version, of a conveyor-belt, consisting of some couples of cylindrical tubular rods, called rollers, delimited by tubular rods with rectangular section or of another suitable shape. These tubular rods are transversally assembled, parallely between one couple of rollers and another, to hold among the rods, the rows of differently shaped cans which are to be sterilized and that are placed on the couple of rollers. And as the rollers, which constitute the couples, are placed in rotation on themselves by a master-rack, which works in a continuous or alternate way, we'll find that the cans in question are placed in rotation on themselves by the rotation of the rollers, on which they like and they are carried forward by the movement of the conveyor-belt. At the end of the conveyor-belt, then, a curved way, of suitable sizes, guides the passing of the rows of cans from the upper modular element to the same lower element, and so forth in succession. Several modular elements on the vertical constitute the extent of the machine for a given output. A variant consists of an exactly alike belt of transversal rods with a rectangular section which flows above a conveyor-belt, manufactured by a net system or by some transversal rectangular sections, therefore, the rows of cans are placed in rotation on themselves by the movement of the belt, where they like, and they are carried forward by the thrust of the transversal rods, which delimit the seat of the rows of cans and act as porters. The passage-system from the upper module to the lower one, and so forth, is exactly alike. These machines can work by steam, by atmospheric pressure in bottomless chambers; otherwise by under pressure steam, in horizontal autoclaves provided with drawer-valve, in entrance and exit, for the input and discharge of the rows of cans. |
