Problems solved by technology
In addition to being complex and expensive, these common elements are also adversely affected by large lateral dimensions, which are not always compatible with the distance between the individual operating stations
[0034] On the positioning device carrying the gripping elements, the weight increase associated with the introduction of the actuator and the associated drive mechanism also adversely affects the performance of the device in terms of the execution time of the movement cycle
[0035] Since the above-mentioned systems for tube movement and the associated gripping elements are located in front of the heating and forming stations, they adversely affect the operator's access to these stations from the front

Embodiment Construction
[0053] refer to figure 1 , the reference numeral 1 designates as a whole a machine for processing pipes 2 made of thermoplastic material according to the invention, in particular a so-called flaring machine, that is to say a machine designed to form in the pipe 2 corresponding End bell.
[0054] The machine 1 has a conveyor belt, not shown, extending along a predetermined first rectilinear direction D1 , along which the tube 2 from an extrusion line, also not shown, located upstream of the machine 1 is fed.
[0055] The machine 1 has a plurality of operating stations of known type, the operating features of which are not further described below, which are positioned side by side along a predetermined second direction D2, which is the same as that described above. The first direction D1 is at right angles.
[0056] In particular, there is usually at least one accumulation station, one or more stations for heating the end of the tube 2 and a station for forming a bell on the p...

Described is a positioning device for positioning pipes (2) made of plastic material, configured for picking up the pipes (2) and transferring them from a first predetermined position to a second predetermined position keeping the pipes (2) parallel with one another and in a first predetermined direction (D1), the positioning device comprising a plurality of gripping elements (5) designed to engage by gripping with the pipes (2) to retain them during the transfer, each of the gripping elements (5) being designed to engage at the top with a pipe (2).
Description
technical field [0001] The invention relates to a positioning device for positioning a tube. [0002] In particular, the invention relates to a positioning device for positioning tubes in a machine for hot-molding end bells, also known as a flaring machine. Background technique [0003] For the production of pipes by thermoplastic extrusion designed to make conduits for the delivery and / or discharge of fluids (for example, in drainage networks for construction works and drinking water distribution networks), a belling machine is used to form the ends of the pipes into Characteristic "bell" shape. [0004] This wider shape is used to successively connect the tubes forming the conduit. Typically, the unformed end of the tube is inserted into the bell-shaped end of an adjacent tube in the catheter. [0005] Most flaring machines in use today make bell-shaped parts through a thermoforming process. These machines are equipped with one or more heating stations to heat the ends...
