Il presente trovato si inserisce nel campo dei dispositivi o apparati per ordinare ed allineare contenitori in plastica vuoti alla rinfusa oppure preforme, vale a dire cartucce dalle quali si originano le bottiglie in plastica a seguito di particolari operazioni di riscaldamento e soffiatura. The present invention is included in the field of devices or apparatuses for sorting and aligning empty plastic containers in bulk or preforms, ie cartridges from which the plastic bottles originate following particular heating and blowing operations.
Più precisamente l'invenzione riguarda il particolare metodo di assemblaggio delle varie parti dell'apparato al fine di poter consentire un miglior trasporto e contenerne le spese. More precisely, the invention relates to the particular method of assembling the various parts of the apparatus in order to allow a better transport and contain costs.
STATO DELL'ARTE STATE OF THE ART
Sono noti da tempo apparati riordinatori utilizzati allo scopo di ordinare e allineare i contenitori disposti alla rinfusa, comprendenti una prima giostra di culle, rotante secondo un asse di rotazione verticale, e mezzi sollevatori, denominati in gergo tecnico alzini, che portano i contenitori, in caduta da un cono centrale, ad una quota superiore scaricandoli all'esterno e provvedendo al loro raddrizzamento entro una seconda giostra detta dei separatori ove cadono in posizione verticale per poi uscire allineati su una linea di trasporto. Unscrambling apparatuses used for the purpose of sorting and aligning containers arranged in bulk have been known for some time, comprising a first carousel of cradles, rotating according to an axis of vertical rotation, and lifting means, known in technical jargon as alzini, which carry the containers, in falling from a central cone, at a higher level by unloading them outside and providing for their straightening within a second carousel called separators where they fall in a vertical position and then come out aligned on a transport line.
Detti apparati ordinatori presentano l'inconveniente di essere di dimensioni ingombranti che richiedono particolari condizioni di trasporto sia su strada che per nave; infatti la loro dimensione obbliga a richiedere speciali permessi e richiedere alle società di servizi specifici accorgimenti che incrementano notevolmente il costo di trasporto di detti apparati. Said ordering apparatuses have the drawback of being bulky dimensions which require particular transport conditions both by road and by ship; in fact, their size obliges them to request special permits and request specific measures from service companies that significantly increase the cost of transporting said equipment.

DESCRIZIONE DEL TROVATO DESCRIPTION OF THE FOUND
Con particolare riferimento alla figura 1 si indica con 10, nel suo complesso, un apparato riordinatore utilizzato per ordinare e allineare contenitori o preforme in arrivo alla rinfusa. With particular reference to Figure 1, the number 10 indicates, as a whole, an unscrambler apparatus used to sort and align containers or preforms arriving in bulk.
Nello specifico l'apparato 10 comprende almeno una prima giostra 1 denominata giostra delle culle perché portante una pluralità di alloggiamenti sulla sua periferia; tutto l'apparato 10 ruota secondo un asse di rotazione verticale centrale. Una seconda giostra 2, detta dei separatori, si trova concentrica alla prima giostra ed esterna ad essa; la giostra 1 risulta più alta per permettere a mezzi 4 sollevatori, denominati in gergo tecnico alzini, di portare le culle ad una quota superiore (tramite camme o mezzi analoghi, da dove vengono poi evacuati i contenitori verso l'esterna giostra 2. Specifically, the apparatus 10 comprises at least a first carousel 1 called the cradle carousel because it carries a plurality of housings on its periphery; the whole apparatus 10 rotates according to a central vertical rotation axis. A second carousel 2, called separators, is concentric with the first carousel and external to it; the carousel 1 is higher to allow lifting means 4, called alzini in technical jargon, to bring the cradles to a higher height (by means of cams or similar means, from where the containers are then evacuated towards the external carousel 2.
I contenitori alla rinfusa vengono fatti scivolare verso la periferia della giostra 1 mediante un cono 5 centrale. The bulk containers are made to slide towards the periphery of the carousel 1 by means of a central cone 5.
Nella giostra 2 dei separatori i contenitori cadono in piedi cosicché possono uscire allineati su una linea di trasporto, prelevati ad esempio da una stella aspirante. In the separator carousel 2 the containers fall to their feet so that they can come out aligned on a conveyor line, taken for example by a suction star.
Entrambe le giostre 1 e 2, così come il cono 5, sono rotanti e supportate da ralle 6 e 7 indicate in figura 1. Both carousels 1 and 2, as well as cone 5, are rotating and supported by washers 6 and 7 indicated in figure 1.
Come accennato sia le giostre 1 e 2 che il cono centrale sono dimensioni ingombranti che richiedono particolari condizioni di trasporto fuori standard, che obbliga a richiedere speciali permessi e specifici accorgimenti che incrementano notevolmente il costo di trasporto di detti apparati. As mentioned, both the carousels 1 and 2 and the central cone are bulky dimensions that require particular non-standard transport conditions, which oblige to request special permits and specific measures that significantly increase the transport cost of said devices.
L'apparato 10 può essere suddiviso in porzioni o sotto parti per cui poter essere in seguito riassemblato per mezzo di soli collegamenti meccanici; in particolare le parti suddivisibili dell'apparato ordinatore riguardano la giostra 1 delle culle, la giostra 2 dei separatori ed il cono 5 di distribuzione dei contenitori provenienti alla rinfusa; le altre parti possono essere anche smontate quindi contenute in container standard. The apparatus 10 can be divided into portions or sub-parts so that it can be subsequently reassembled by means of mechanical connections only; in particular, the divisible parts of the ordering apparatus concern the carousel 1 of the cradles, the carousel 2 of the separators and the distribution cone 5 of the containers coming in bulk; the other parts can also be disassembled and therefore contained in standard containers.
Dette sotto parti possono essere riunite nelle loro linee di giunzione e convenientemente fissate da collegamenti meccanici. Said sub-parts can be joined in their joint lines and conveniently fixed by mechanical connections.
In pratica la giostra delle culle, la giostra dei separatori ed il cono di distribuzione sono scomponibili in sotto parti o porzioni indicate nelle figure con i riferimenti 11, 12, 13, 21, 22, 23, 51, 52, 53; dette sotto parti o porzioni sono definite da linee di separazione LI, L2, L3, L4, L5, L6 appositamente studiate in modo da realizzare dimensioni massime poco ingombranti e contenute in misure standard di trasporto. In practice, the cradle carousel, the separator carousel and the distribution cone can be divided into sub-parts or portions indicated in the figures with the references 11, 12, 13, 21, 22, 23, 51, 52, 53; these sub-parts or portions are defined by separation lines L1, L2, L3, L4, L5, L6 specifically designed to achieve maximum dimensions that are not bulky and contained in standard transport measures.
Dette linee di separazione LI, L2, L3, L4, L5, L6 sono mantenute pressoché lineari in modo da suddividere le giostre in segmenti di arco e che chi cono in tre porzioni distinte. Said separation lines L1, L2, L3, L4, L5, L6 are kept almost linear so as to divide the carousels into arc segments and that they cone into three distinct portions.
Ad esempio, con riferimento alla giostra delle culle, indicata con il riferimento 1 nelle figure 3 e 4, si osserva che le due porzioni di estremità 11 definite tra le linee di separazione LI, L2, radiali, sono unite al disco centrale 15 o ruota interna della giostra stessa, mentre le due porzioni laterali indicate con 12 e 13 vengono ad essere distaccate sia dalle estremità 11 che dal disco centrale o ruota interna; per poter essere riattaccate mezzi quali collegamenti meccanici sono previsti sulle linee di giunzione. For example, with reference to the carousel of the cradles, indicated with the reference 1 in Figures 3 and 4, it can be observed that the two end portions 11 defined between the radial separation lines L1, L2, are joined to the central disc 15 or wheel internal of the carousel itself, while the two lateral portions indicated with 12 and 13 are detached both from the ends 11 and from the central disc or internal wheel; in order to be able to be reattached means such as mechanical connections are provided on the joining lines.
Quanto detto la giostra 1 culle vale anche per la giostra 2 dei separatori mentre per quanto riguarda il cono 5 centrale questo viene ad essere suddiviso non secondo una linea di separazione radiale comeLl o L2 bensì con due tagli lineari del disco indicati in figura 5 con L5 ed L6; l'ingombro definito tra L5 ed L6 rimane a misura in un container di dimensioni standard, così come avviene per le giostre. What has been said above the carousel 1 cradles also applies to the carousel 2 of the separators while as regards the central cone 5 this is to be divided not according to a radial separation line such as L1 or L2 but with two linear cuts of the disc indicated in figure 5 with L5 and L6; the space defined between L5 and L6 remains tailor-made in a standard-sized container, as is the case with carousels.
