Abstract: A positioning system for bowling pins includes: a support frame; levers, each independently rotatably associated to the frame, according to an oscillating axis oscillating between rest and perturbed positions; cables, each having first and second ends, fixed to a respective lever; a carriage slidably associated to the support frame; first guides connected to the carriage, each configured to contact a respective cable between the respective lever and pin; a positioning template, provided with accommodating openings of the pins, in which a portion of a corresponding cable is inserted; brakes, each connected to the support frame, associated to a respective cable and actuatable between a blocking position and an unblocking position; an electric motor to actuate the carriage between first and second positions; sensors, each of which is associated to a corresponding lever and is configured the lever position; a control, which detects lever positions and manages the motor and brakes.
