Abstract: The support element (10) comprises a concave portion (11) having its concavity facing the vertical wall (3) and arranged define at the front, and at least in part laterally, a shell closed at its rear by the vertical wall (3) to determine a chamber (12), and an electric lamp (20) installed within the chamber (12), the chamber (12) comprising one or more lateral apertures (13) and/or lower apertures (14) which enable the light produced by the electric lamp (20) to escape from the chamber (12).

Abstract: An automatic machine for the internal fettling of sanitary appliances in general, which comprises a tappet device elastically loaded towards a cam having a profile conforming to the mouth of the bowls of the articles to be fettled, said device controlling the horizontal excursions of a double slide which supports in an overhanging manner, to lie above a surface on which the articles are arranged, a verticle slider provided with a stepwise-rotatable coaxial shaft on which there is lowerly mounted, in an orientation-adjustable manner, a rotating brush arranged for insertion into the bowls in order to make contact with their entire inner surface extension by virtue of the combination of the aforesaid movements.

Abstract: An automatic machine for the fettling of the syphon of sanitary appliances, comprising a vertical flat structure of overall elastically deformable configuration, which tapers downwards in such a manner as to be able to be inserted into the syphons of the articles provided laterally with two fettling sectors arranged to contact the walls of the syphons, and which is supported by an operating head arranged to subject it to vertical reciprocating recitlinear motion and to simultaneous stepwise rotary motion; the operating head is mounted on a vertical slider for its positioning at the required level.

Abstract: A plant including at least two parallel casting benches (1), each comprising a plurality of double-face moulds (3) which can be clamped together into a pack so as to define a succession of vertical cavities for casting shaped concave vitreous china objects (6); means (13) for rapidly drying the moulds of each casting bench; at least one vertical parking unit (4) in the form of superposed shelves lying between said two casting benches and arranged to accumulate the articles during their hardening stage; means (5) for transferring the articles, after being withdrawn from the moulds, from the two casting benches to a motorized holding table (11) provided at the base of said vertical parking unit; end lifting-lowering means (8), (88) for loading and unloading this latter; means (18), disposed at the discharge end of said vertical parking unit, for automatically loading the articles on to fork trucks (20); at least one rotatable platform (19) for these latter; a drier (23) through which the full fork trucks pass;
