Abstract (en)

There is described a shutter unit (1) for a packaging machine (100) for short pasta configured to receive a dose of pasta from a weighing unit (2) of fed pasta, hold it and then discharge it into a bag being formed by means of welding units (3, 60). The shutter unit (1) comprises a diaphragm (7) with a first, a second and a third blade (4a, 4b, 4c) pivoted on a first, a second and a third pin (5a, 5b, 5c), respectively, fixed on a base plane (18). Moving means (10) are configured to rotate the blades (4a, 4b, 4c) simultaneously between a closed position of the diaphragm (7), in which the dose of short pasta is held by the shutter unit (1), and an opening position of the diaphragm (7) to let the dose of short pasta fall into the bag being formed.
