Speed regulator for automatic bottle inspection machine - accelerates transporter temporarily closing gap in bottle row to filling machine when faulty bottle is rejected

摘要

The speed regulator is used for regulating working speed of an automatic bottle inspection machine. The bottles are fed to a rotating transporter at the inspection area and faulty bottles are ejected. Passed bottles are moved on to filling machine. The bottles are moved along without gaps. The working speed is regulated in relation to the rejected bottles. The working speed is temporarily increased when a bottle is rejected until the gap between bottles is closed. After that, the working speed is readjusted to the former rate which corresponds to filling speed of bottling machine.
