Embodiment Construction

[0018] Reference numeral 1 in FIG. 1 designates the entirety of a pick-up device for continuously picking up blank stockpiles 2 from a pallet 3 lying on a substantially horizontal plane 4 . The plane is supported by a base frame 5 and is movable relative to the frame 5 in a substantially vertical direction 6 . The stockpile 2 is stacked on a pallet 3 and consists of several superimposed layers 7, each layer being separated from the layer 7 below by a partition 8, usually made of cardboard or the like. The edge portion 9 ( Figure 4 ) protruding from the periphery of layer 7. Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown more clearly in , in each layer 7 the piles 2 are arranged in parallel rows 10 along direction 11 .

[0019] Referring to FIG. 1 , the pick-up device 1 comprises a pick-up assembly 12 which crosses the direction 11 and faces a portion 9 a of the edge portion 9 of each partition plate 8 . The pick-up assembly 12 comprises a hinged fork 13 protruding in direction 11 from o...

Abstract

A method and device (1) for picking up stacks (2) of blanks, whereby the stacks (2), arranged in at least one layer (7) on a separating sheet (8) having a peripheral portion (9) projecting outwards of the layer (7), are removed successively by a pickup member (13), a free end of which is pressed onto the separating sheet (8) in a position facing a stack (2) for removal, and is then slid in a given pickup direction (11), and in contact with the separating sheet (8), beneath the stack (2) for removal; a portion (9a), crosswise to the pickup direction (11) and facing the pickup member (13), of the peripheral portion (9) of the separating sheet (8) is clamped in position both crosswise to its plane and in the pickup direction (11) by a gripping device (32) before and during removal of the stacks (2).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method of picking up a stack of blanks. [0002] More particularly, the present invention relates to a method of picking up stacks of blanks of a given number stacked on pallets and transporting them successively to a cigarette packing plant. In the following, this method will be described purely by way of example. Background technique [0003] In the tobacco industry, a certain number of billet stacks are placed on pallets stacked on top of each other. Adjacent layers are separated by a separator. This divider is usually a piece of cardboard or something similar. The blanks in each layer are picked up continuously by a picker with a hinged fork, the free end of which, facing the pile of blanks to be picked up, is pressed down onto the divider below, deforming the divider slightly downwards. The free ends of the forks, still pressed down on the divider, are then moved towards the pile of blanks to be picked up, causing th...
