Abstract: An internal pressure inspection is simply conducted for cans of types different in dimension and for assuredly removing defective cans. The inspection apparatus comprises first and second can barrel pressure detectors and a can cover pressure detector for detecting the internal pressure of a can, and a can sensor for sensing a can, which underwent the detection of the internal pressure, to output a can sense signal. In the inspection apparatus, a control unit decides the acceptance or failure in the can internal pressure and, when the failure decision is made, starts a defective can removal unit on the basis of the can sense signal from the can sensor. An apparatus body has a separation change mechanism including a width variable gauge which is placed between first and second movable frames and which can change its own width in accordance with its own rotation. The first and second movable frames and which can change its own width in accordance with its own rotation.

Abstract: A pallet exchanging apparatus for machine tool used for exchanging the pallet loaded with the machined workpieces with the pallet loaded with the workpieces to be machined. The pallet exchanging apparatus has a transmission device for shifting the pallet between a work position on a table of the machine tool and a waiting position for exchanging the pallets. The transmission device is driven either by the movement of the table or the movement of the driving mechanism for the table and is adapted to output the rotational movement. The output of the transmission is used for driving a speed-up device. The speed-up device is adapted to move the pallet linearly with higher speed and larger stroke than those of the linear movement of the table.
