    摘要: The method for filling bottles with a predetermined number of pharmaceutical articles comprises positioning the separating wall (4) with respect to the descent channels (1) in an operating position so that the first entry section (21A) of the first accumulation chamber (21) and the second entry section (22A) of the second accumulation chamber (22) can respectively receive pharmaceutical articles from a different number of descent channels (1) with respect to one another so as to generate an imbalance in the accumulation of pharmaceutical articles between the first accumulation chamber (21) and the second accumulation chamber (22) with one of the two accumulation chambers (21, 22) accumulating, more rapidly than the other, the predetermined number of articles to be unloaded into a first bottle (F1) positioned by the conveying line (L) beneath the unloading conduit (3). As soon as one of the two accumulation chambers (21, 22) has accumulated the predetermined number of pharmaceutical articles to be inserted therein, the method comprises: unloading the pharmaceutical articles into the first bottle (F1), positioning a second bottle (F2) paused beneath the unloading conduit (3), and then, as soon as the predetermined number of pharmaceutical articles has been accumulated in the other accumulation chamber (21, 22), unloading the pharmaceutical articles of the other accumulation chamber into the second bottle (F2).

    摘要: An apparatus (100) for counting and unloading pharmaceutical articles, comprising: an accumulation chamber (60), for receiving pharmaceutical articles falling from the descent channels (40) and having an unloading mouth (63) for unloading the pharmaceutical articles, and a closing element (65) of the unloading mouth (63) movable between a first closed position (01) of the unloading mouth (63) and a second open position (02) for opening the unloading mouth (63) and for enabling the unloading of the pharmaceutical articles. The closing element (65) is configured and conformed in such a way as to comprise a first abutment surface (R1) and a second abutment surface (R2) which are arranged at an angle to one another, in such a way that with the closing element (65) positioned in the first closed position (01), the first abutment surface (R1) is arranged in the accumulation chamber (60) inclined and with a first angle with respect to a first internal wall (61) of the accumulation chamber (60) defining a first accumulation volume (V1) for a first group of pharmaceutical articles between the first abutment surface (R1) and the first internal wall (61), and the second abutment surface (R2) is arranged in the accumulation chamber (60) inclined and with a second angle with respect to a second internal wall (62) of the accumulation chamber (60), defining a second accumulation volume (V2) for a second group of pharmaceutical articles between the second abutment surface (R2) and the second internal wall (62).

    摘要: Various embodiments of a product packing apparatus are disclosed. Embodiments may include a rotating head assembly configured to selectively rotate all or a portion of unique feed lines, to generate a desired packaging configuration. For example, embodiments of the present approach may be used to package bottles or cans of various beverage varieties. A plurality of feedlines may direct beverage varieties towards a rotating head assembly. Each feedline may deliver a specific beverage variety. Depending on the desired packaging configuration, some feedlines may divert around the rotating head assembly, whereas others deliver beverage varieties in linear arrays to the rotating head assembly. The rotating head assembly rotates a select portion of the beverage varieties to generate a desired packaging configuration of beverage varieties.
