Abstract: A paper-industry article for making an outer skeleton (3) of a container (2) which also includes an inner layer (9) of thermoplastic material and which has a bottom wall (6), a plurality of lateral walls (5) and an annular perimetric flange (4), the outer skeleton (3) extending at the perimetric flange (4), at the lateral walls (5), at the bottom wall (6), wherein the paper-industry article (1) includes a continuous annular frame (7) intended to constitute the outer skeleton (3) of the container (2) at the perimetric flange (4) of the container (2), and a plurality of wings (10) which extend starting from the continuous annular frame (7), each of the wings (10) being intended to constitute the outer skeleton (3) at one of the lateral walls (5) of the container (2), and at least one of the wings (10) also being intended to constitute the outer skeleton (3) also at the bottom wall (6) of the container (2).

Abstract: A paperboard article (1) for making a container (8) comprises an annular frame (2), which surrounds an internal zone (20), and a plurality of wings (3) connected to the annular frame (2). Each wing (3) comprises a first portion (31) and a second portion (32), wherein the second portion (32) is connected to the annular frame (2) and is interposed between the annular frame (2) and the first portion (31). The paperboard article (1) is configured to adopt a flat configuration and an expanded configuration. In the flat configuration, the paperboard article (1) has a substantially planar shape and the wings (3) are coplanar without overlapping each other. In the expanded configuration, the paperboard article (1) has a substantially tray-like shape, wherein the annular frame (2) forms an annular flange (71), the first portions (31) of the wings (3) form a bottom wall (72) and the second portions (32) of the wings (3) form lateral walls (73).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a machine for sealing containers by applying a covering film, which comprises a framework for supporting a container sealing unit which is located between a unit for feeding the containers to be sealed and a conveyor for removing the sealed containers. There are also pusher arms which are detachably associable with multiple containers to transfer them from the feeder unit to the sealing unit and from the sealing unit to the removal conveyor. The particularity of the invention resides in the fact that the feeder unit comprises an accumulation conveyor which is located upstream of the sealing unit and downstream of at least one buffer conveyor which is interposed between the accumulation conveyor and an external feeder conveyor.

Abstract: Volumetric dosage machine particularly for granulates, powders and loose products in general, including products that are not uniform or mutually compacted and have a very limited flow ability, comprising a hopper for loading a product to be metered that is provided with a bottom which has a plurality of dosage chambers and is movable to transfer the dosage chambers from a loading position to a discharge position spaced from the loading position, and/or vice versa. There is also a skimming unit interacting with the dosage chambers during the movement of the bottom.

Abstract: The apparatus for closing containers with a sealing lamina comprises a framework for supporting a first conveyor belt for feeding containers to be closed, which is connected to a heat-welding unit and to a second conveyor belt for removing the closed containers. The apparatus has a pusher element which can engage a plurality of containers. First actuation means act on the pusher to move it from a position of engagement of the containers to a position of disengagement therefrom, and second means move it along an axis which is parallel to the direction of advancement of the containers.
