  • Publication number: 20030185657
    Abstract: At least one vertical structure is constituted by plurality of planes, set one upon another, each of which can house at least one container. A lift truck is able to transport at least one of the containers and can move in a vertical direction in a vertical work space parallel to the vertical surface on which the planes are aligned. The lift truck on command can be positioned facing one of the planes, and can interact with the planes in order to remove or insert a single container. The invention comprises a plurality of the vertical structures which are arranged parallel and afford a plurality of the work spaces for movement of the lift truck and are conformed to enable transfer of the lift truck at least from one of the work spaces to another of the work spaces. Means are provided to operate a transfer of the lift truck from one of the work spaces to another as well as to displace of the lift truck at least in a vertical direction along a single work space.

  • Publication number: 20020043211
    Abstract: The machine comprises: a mobile rest plane for tiles on which the tiles transit in a predetermined advancement direction; a decorating apparatus which comprises a plurality of cylinders, located above the mobile rest plane; means for setting the plurality of cylinders in rotation each about an axis thereof, and with a predetermined stagger of one of the plurality of cylinders with respect to others of the plurality of cylinders. The means for setting the plurality of cylinders in rotation employ a mechanical transmission of drive to the plurality of cylinders which comprises a driven gear coaxially and solidly associated to each of the plurality of cylinders. The driven gears are drawn in rotation, with couplings allowing no relative dragging, by a chain and have diameters which are different from diameters of the plurality of cylinders to which they are solidly constrained.
