摘要： A continuous motion apparatus for depacking and packing articles in cases which includes a carriage which carries a plurality of transfer arms; a plurality of article pick-up heads carried by the transfer arms for picking up a group of the articles at a pick-up station to transfer the articles to a release station. In a case packing configuration of the invention, a slug metering section includes a slug feeder continuously receiving articles from an infeed conveyor. A revolving pin bar mechanism is carried in the slug metering section having a plurality of revolving pin bar assemblies to assist in forming the articles into successive groups or slugs of articles. The pin bar assemblies include spaced upstanding pins which are received in crevices between rear articles in a first slug and front articles in a second slug of articles to separate the articles for processing. A slug metering member, which can also have upstanding posts, is carried across the slug metering section and pivots in and out of a conveyance path of the articles in synchronism with the revolving pin bar mechanism to meter the articles. In the depacking configuration, a plurality of article gripper tubes are carried by each article pick-up head arranged in a matrix corresponding to the slug of articles. The gripper tubes have a grip position in which said articles are retained by the pick-up head at the pick-up station for transfer, and a release position in which the articles are released from the pick-up head at the release station. Advantageously, the gripper tubes have a first effective axial length for gripping articles at the pick-up station when the articles are in an upright configuration, and the gripper tubes have a second effective axial length which is compressed and shortened relative to the first axial length when striking an obstacle such as an inverted article to allow sufficient travel for all other gripper tubes to grip articles.
摘要翻译：一种用于在包括承载多个传送臂的托架的情况下包装和包装物品的连续运动装置; 由传送臂承载的多个物品拾取头，用于在拾取站拾取一组物品以将物品转移到释放站。在本发明的包装结构的情况下，块状计量部分包括从进料输送机连续地接收物品的塞子进料器。在具有多个旋转销杆组件的块塞计量部分中承载有旋转销杆机构，以帮助将制品形成连续的一组或多个物品。销杆组件包括间隔开的销，其被接收在第一块中的后部物品之间的缝隙中，并且在第二个物品的前部物品中分离物品以进行处理。也可以具有直立柱的块塞计量构件跨过块塞计量部分并与物品的旋转销杆机构同步地枢转进出物品的输送路径以对物品进行计量。在拆卸构造中，多个物品夹持管由布置在与物品的块状物相对应的矩阵中的每个物品拾取头承载。夹持管具有夹持位置，在该夹持位置，所述物品在拾取站处被拾取头保持用于传送，以及释放位置，其中物品在释放站处从拾取头释放。有利地，夹具管具有第一有效的轴向长度，用于当制品处于直立构型时在拾取站处夹持物品，并且夹持管具有相对于第一轴向长度被压缩和缩短的第二有效轴向长度当撞击诸如倒置物品的障碍物以允许所有其他夹持管足够的行进夹持物品时。
