Device for transferring fitting pieces for container labelling

Abstract

A device (V) has a hub (5) centrally coupled to a direct drive (M1) such that the hub is driven by the drive around a rotational axis in a stationary hub bearing arrangement (24) that is arranged in an outer circumferential region of the hub. A set of drive shafts (16) is coupled to transfer shafts (33) carrying transfer elements (34). A lantern wheel (T) is arranged under the hub and comprises drive pinions and toothed wheel segments (19). A stationary control cam plate (14) pivotally rotates the drive shafts, and the drive is arranged under the plate. The hub is arranged under the plate. The direct drive is designed as an electrical torque motor or an electrical servomotor.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a device of the type given in the preamble of patent claim 1 . Background technique

[0002] This device, which can be attached to a labeling assembly and is known from DE3044879A and DE3216138A, has a fixed gearbox housing, the bottom of which forms the cam control plate of the lantern pinion, said gearbox on the upper The sides are closed between the hub cover and the gearbox housing via a sliding ring seal, since at least the lantern pinion arranged between the hub and the cam control plate is inserted into the oil sump. A fixed shaft is fitted to the center of the cam control plate, with the hub being rotatably centrally supported on said fixed shaft by two axially spaced ball bearings. The hub has a peripheral tooth profile which meshes with the driving gear of the gearbox forming the drive of the device, each drive shaft in the hub has at its lower end a drive pinion fitted for co-rotation and a pivotable lantern The ge...

Embodiment Construction

[0020] Although the plant V with the plate-shaped support structure 1 may be a structural unit that can be prefabricated independently and possibly be integrated into different labeling assemblies A, built onto the plate-shaped (steel plate or light metal alloy plate) support structure 1, For example, in the process of container labeling, the equipment V used to transfer the assembly is in the figure 1 is shown integrated into labeling assembly A. The apparatus V is for conveying individual assemblies, such as label or foil cutters, etc., in a rotational movement about an at least substantially vertical axis of rotation.

[0021] exist figure 1In the exemplary embodiment shown, further components of the labeling assembly A have been arranged functionally or in a special geometric relationship to each other, for example on the support structure 1 , namely: the assembly box B for the assembly; a gluing unit L for supplying and applying e.g. cold glue to each assembly being con...
