Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2006016268A1] Sweets or candies are packaged in boxes by a machine comprising a plurality of pockets (2), each holding a respective box (S) and advancing in a given direction (D) along a feed path of which one leg (T) functions as a filling station, a plurality of moving hoppers (5),a feeder from which the sweets are directed into each hopper (5), and a drive system (23) by which the hoppers (5) are set in motion. The drive system (23) includes a transport belt (6) carrying the hoppers (5) and looped around a pair of driven wheels (7a, 7b),a drive belt (24) looped around the driven wheels (7a, 7b), a drive wheel (25) coupleSweets or candies are packaged in boxes by a machine comprising a plurality of pockets (2) , each holding a respective box (S) and advancing in a given direction (D) along a feed path of which one leg (T) functions as a filling station, a plurality of moving hoppers (5), each with a bottom outlet (20) positionable above a relative pocket (2) at least when advancing along the filling leg (T), also a feeder from which the sweets are directed into each hopper (5) by way of a top opening (10) , and a drive system (23) by which the hoppers (5) are set i motion. The drive system (23) includes a transport belt (6) carrying the hoppers (5) and looped around a pair of driven wheels (7a, 7b), with an unloading branch (21) along which the hoppers (5) are positioned over the leg (T) to fill the boxes (S), a drive belt (24) looped around the driven wheels (7a, 7b), a drive wheel (25) coupled positively to a branch (24b) of the drive belt (24) associated with the unloading branch (21), and a device (26) by which the driven wheels (7a, 7b) are set in alternating linear motion along a direction (X) parallel to the direction (D) followed by the pockets (2).
