Abstract: The invention relates to facility including a robot (2) for supplying pallet preparation stations with products (3) of the crate type or different. The structure of the facility includes side walls (11) and doors (13, 14) for accessing the palletization stations A and B. The structure further includes a fixed wall (15) separating stations A and B, and a cowling (20) mobile from one station to the other and in the shape of a dihedron, for alternatively converting each palletization station A and B into a kind of pallet hatch, wherein said conversion is carried out automatically before the opening of the door for accessing a loaded pallet located in said hatch. The cowling (20) is directly actuated by the product handling robot (2).

Abstract: According to the invention, the handling robot includes a vertical telescopic mast (11) that comprises: a vertically fixed base (20); and a plurality of sections (21-23) with synchronised movements, said movements being speed- and acceleration-controlled and including a gravity extension movement and a powered retraction movement, the last section (23) bearing a head (13) for gripping the products (3) to be palletised. The robot includes a common driving shaft (30) for moving the different sections (21, 22, 23), wherein said shaft (30) includes wheels (31, 32, 33) having a diameter adapted to the travel of the section (21-23?) they operate, respectively, via transmission members. For the last section (23) bearing the gripping head, the movement transmission is carried out by chains and for the other sections the transmission members between the wheels (31, 32) and the sections thereof (21, 22) consist of belts that wind up on the corresponding wheel.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for adjustment of tracks, comprising a mechanism for moving the walls in order to simultaneously adjust the width of different tracks. The device also comprises a system for transverse displacement of the tracks with relation to the medial longitudinal axis of said conveyor. The system comprise a carriage arranged between the support structure for the walls and the mechanism for moving the walls, the carriage being transversely movable and guided by a system of slides arranged at the level of each support structure in order to carry out said transverse displacement of the set of tracks without altering the width thereof. The above arrangement permits the guiding as necessary of lines of bottles or other things, the number of which can vary going from an even number to an odd number.
