Abstract (en)
A hooding machine (10) comprises a system for forming a hood from a tube of film (12) in a flattened folded condition so as to form four side edges. The system comprises two pairs of chain rings with grippers (24) for gripping and moving the tube of film along a hood formation path (11) from a starting area of the path (11) where the tube of film (12) in a flattened folded condition is fed with its initial portion (14). In an end area (15) of the path there is a head (16) for collecting, expanding and fitting the hood onto a package, said head being arranged above an area (17) of the machine where a package to be wrapped is positioned. Each pair of chain rings is supported on a frame (25, 26) so as to be movable with respect to the other pair of chain rings and thus be able to vary controllably the mutual distance between the pairs of chains and adapt the machine to a different transverse dimension of the tube of film (12).
