Abstract: Cooling tunnel for flexible packages filled with hot liquid products. The cooling tunnel is applicable to automatic packaging installations and comprises a main conveyor belt (1) adapted for the transport of packages (2) filled with hot liquid products through a cooling device (3), loading means (4) of packages (2) onto the main conveyor belt (1), unloading means (5) of packages (2) from the conveyor belt (1) and emptying means (6) of the packages (2). The loading means (4) are adapted for loading the packages (2) onto the main conveyor belt (1) forming successive sets (15), in which the packages (2) form an arrangement of orthogonal rows and columns, whereas the unloading means (5) are adapted for the simultaneous unloading of the packages (2) from each row of the sets (15) of packages (2).

Abstract: This machine is of the type used for the automatic packaging of liquid, granulated, ground, or powdered products in bag-shaped packages. The machine comprises bag-shaping means (1) or means for supplying ready-made bags (19) determining a virtual longitudinal axis (X-X), bag transport means (10) for packaging and bag packaging means (15), the bag transport means (10) being linked with the bag-shaping means (1) or with the supply of ready-made bags (19) by means of a transfer device (3). The bag transport means (11) are provided with a bag transport guide (11) which describes a closed path and determines a virtual longitudinal axis (Y-Y).
