Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2019229595A1] A grip device (1) for containers, in particular for preforms (10) of plastic containers, which comprises at least one elongated body (2) which has, at a first end (2a), a supporting body (3) and, at the opposite end, a radially expandable element (4) in order to pass, on command, between a retracted condition which is adapted to allow the insertion and the withdrawal of at least one portion of the elongated body (2) into or out of a cavity (10a) which is defined in a respective container (10), and an expanded condition in which the expandable element (4) is engaged against the inner surface of the cavity so as to allow the gripping and the movement of the respective container (10); the expandable element (4) has a plurality of longitudinal elements (5) which are arranged around an axis of extension and of movement (100) and are provided in a single piece with the supporting body (3); the grip device (1) comprises an actuation body (20) which is arranged internally with respect to the expandable element (4) and can move, on command, longitudinally in order to engage with an inner coupling surface (6) which is defined on the longitudinal elements (5) in order to cause their radial expansion, the longitudinal elements (5) being elastically radially expandable and retractable in order to autonomously return to the retracted condition.
