Abstract (en)
[origin: US7308779B2] Tubes (T), coming from a production line, are supplied by means of a grouping unit ( 1 ). The grouping unit comprises a conveyor belt ( 10 ), with product holders ( 11 ) and the tubes are supplied in groups by means of a stepping motor ( 12 ). A slider ( 13 ) pushes the tubes (T) into the correct position on a mandrel support ( 20 ) of a packaging unit ( 2 ). The mandrel support ( 20 ) comprises a plate ( 21 ), which may be moved back and forth by means of a piston/cylinder unit ( 22 ) and which may be pivoted from the horizontal holding position into the vertical dispensing position. The tubes are pushed onto mandrels ( 25 ) which are mounted on the plate ( 21 ), by means of the slider ( 13 ), The tubes are thus held in exact alignment and can be filled into the carton (B) without a relative displacement or tilting of the tubes.
