Abstract

Capping assemblies (2) of the type fitted to capping units (Ia) in a machine for packaging containers filled with fluid or powdered products are equipped with a gripping apparatus (1) comprising a gripper (4) with three arms (5), each carrying an adapter (20) furnished with a pad (20b) offered in direct contact to the cap, through which the gripping action is applied. Each adapter (20) is secured to a fitting (17, 18) insertable into a socket (16) afforded by the bottom of a structural member (6) that forms the main part of each arm (5) and is hinged to the movable head of a relative capping assembly (2); when inserted into the structural member (6), the fitting (17, 18) is retained automatically by a snap lock mechanism (12) incorporated into the arm (5), which can be released subsequently by introducing the tip of a screwdriver into a slot (18a) created in the side of the fitting (17, 18) and levering the components apart.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a gripping device for a closure assembly, in particular of the type used in a closure unit of a machine for packaging containers. [0002] In particular, the invention is applicable to packaging designed as containers for substances and / or products of liquid, viscous, creamy, jelly and / or powder consistency. Background technique [0003] Caps are traditionally applied automatically to respective containers by a machine unit usually equipped with a plurality of closure assemblies which are moved about a vertical axis of rotation by a carousel or similar support structure rotate. [0004] Furthermore, each assembly is generally rotatable about a respective axis parallel to the vertical axis of the carousel, and is also axially movable on the carousel to move integrally with the carousel towards or away from the respective container. [0005] Each closure assembly is usually equipped with corresponding gripping means, which are ...
