摘要： The invention relates to a handling apparatus (1) for piece goods (2) that comprises at least one divider finger (14, 46, 51), which is introducible to a transport plane (5), largely perpendicular, from below, with the at least one divider finger being connected to a divider bar element (13, 13*, 43, 50). The divider bar element is movably arranged below the transport plane (5) and is guided in a specified movement path. The divider bar element is detachably connected to a profile element (11, 41). During a format change, the divider bar element is toolessly detached and interchanged for another divider bar element, which has divider fingers that are positioned differently and/or spaced apart differently from the divider fingers of the removed divider bar element.

摘要： The invention includes an apparatus and a method for producing shrink-wrapped bundles (38) from groups (10) of assembled articles or containers (12). Assigned to a transport route (14) is a film application device (16) for wrapping the respective article groups or container groups (10) into a length of film (20) in the direction of transport (18) under formation of an overlapping section (22) as well as under formation of folding flaps (24) respectively projecting beyond the article groups or container groups (10) on the sides of the transverse edges. Mechanical folding members (26) serve for placing on top of each other the folding flaps (24) projecting on both transverse sides against the adjacent outer surfaces of the articles or containers, wherein an opening (32) is formed, in particular, between trailing edges (30) of the folding flaps (24), which trailing edges (30) face toward each other. In a heating section (34), the folded folding flaps are held in their respective position, and the film wrapping (20) is impinged with hot air for the purpose of forming shrink bundles (38). The mechanical folding members (26) for fixing the folded folding flaps (24) and/or for holding the folding flaps (24) in their folded position extend into the heating section (34) at least over a partial section (42) of a defined length (44a, 44b).

摘要： The method of the present invention removes at least a plurality of articles (02) arriving consecutively in a transport direction (FR) from an infeed (03), and subsequently, arranging and grouping the articles (02), while simultaneously lifting and collectively transferring the article (02) from the infeed (03) to a staging surface (04). At the staging area are one or more outer packagings (05), and into which the articles (02) are placed. Individually or groupwise, as seen in a direction in parallel to the transport direction (FR), the individual distances between the articles (02) corresponding to a defined arrangement (20) are increased and/or decreased, and finally, the articles (02) are simultaneously lowered and released into the one or a plurality of outer packagings (05). The apparatus of the present invention comprises an infeed (03) of articles (02) being transported, at least one staging surface (04) arranged next to the infeed (03). On the staging surface (04), outer packagings (05) are staged, and which will be filled with articles (02) removed from the infeed (03). From the staging surface (04), the filled outer packagings (05) are discharged. A gripping device (07) is used to simultaneously seize a plurality of articles (02) from the infeed (03). The gripping device (07) has one gripper head (70) per article. The gripping device (07) has at least one manipulator (71) with a horizontally and vertically movable manipulator head (72).

摘要： The present invention includes an apparatus (01) and a method for expanding and erecting collapsed or folded cardboard packagings (02) to a standing position. The method includes holding the topmost cardboard packaging (02), coming from above, at its top flat side (23) of a cardboard packaging wall (22) and removing it from a stack (41) of flatly collapsed cardboard packagings (02). Subsequently also holding the cardboard packaging (02), at its bottom flat side (24) from below, and increasing the vertical distance between the top flat side (23), and the bottom flat side (24), by oppositely pulling so far until the cardboard packaging (02) has been expanded. Then releasing the top flat side (23) of the cardboard packaging (02), and rotating the lying, expanded set of cardboard packaging (02) still being held at its bottom flat side (24), where the rotating is about a horizontal pivoting axis (13). The bottom flat side (24) is subsequently also released to achieve an expanded and now erected set of compartments and/or the outer packagings (03). The apparatus (01) comprises a cardboard packaging supply (04) comprising at least one stack (41) of flatly collapsed cardboard packagings (02) arranged lying on top of each other, an erecting device (05) arranged next to the cardboard packaging supply (04) as seen in the direction of a horizontal axis (11), and a gripping device (06) for simultaneously seizing respectively one topmost cardboard packaging (02) from each stack (41) of the cardboard packaging supply (04).

摘要： A transport section of a horizontal conveyor device for conveying articles moved along in a standing or hanging position on a transport support surface extending in a horizontal conveying direction between two guide elements arranged approximately in parallel to each other and spaced from each other at a distance corresponding to at least the article or container width. At least one of the two guide elements arranged facing each other is adjustable in its distance to the other of the guide elements and transverse to the conveying direction via several adjustment elements attached to a machine frame or base frame. The adjustment elements are coupled with each other via a common rotary drive and are approximately synchronized and each adjustment element transmits a rotatory drive of the common rotary drive via one or more transmissions to a linear adjustment movement of the guide element linked to it.
