Abstract: The proposed endless conveyor device (1) for conveying items (2) includes a plurality of compartments (4), which receive items (2), released by an adjacent transferring line (3). Each of the compartments (4) has a bottom (40), with a pair of lateral walls (41, 42) connected to its upper part. At least one of the walls rotates with respect to the other, to increase the inlet section of the compartment (4) in step relation with the receiving of an item (2).

Abstract: A device for picking and opening boxes suitable for packaging products, comprising at least one magazine for substantially parallelepipedal boxes in a flattened configuration, at least one rotating drum provided peripherally with elements for picking the boxes one by one from the magazine and with elements for opening the boxes, and at least one conveyor for conveying the boxes in the open configuration from the rotating drum toward successive production stations of the product packaging process, the box picking elements and the box opening elements being actuated by cams, the conveyor comprising at least one rotating carousel with a plurality of box seats.

Abstract: A device for closing boxes which are each provided, at least one end face, with at least one flap with a complementary end flap and with at least two folding lateral tabs which mutually interlock in the closure configuration with the complementary end flap, comprising, arranged laterally with respect to the direction of advancement of the boxes and one after the other, a folding element for folding the flap with respect to the box, at least one first rotating element for folding the complementary flap with respect to the flap, at least one second rotating element for inserting the complementary flap in the mouth of the box, and at least one third rotating element for interlocking the complementary flap with the lateral tabs, to completely close the box.

Abstract: An apparatus for packaging products in boxes provided with a supporting footing, a box feeding magazine, at least one pick-up device, at least one feeder conveyor of products to be placed in the boxes, at least one rotating carousel for receiving in a plurality of peripheral receptacles that have one open side, from the pick-up device, the boxes in a parallelepipedal configuration, and with axial pusher elements. The feeder conveyor has a loop element provided with supporting cups for the products to be placed in boxes.

Abstract: An apparatus for forming containers fed with their side walls arranged in a flattened tubular configuration, comprising a device for opening the containers that is associated with abutment-retention elements for the abutment and retention of the containers in the open configuration and with transfer elements for transferring the open containers into respective variable-geometry receptacles of a conveyance line, the receptacles being suitable to move from a first open configuration for receiving the containers to a second closed configuration for conveying the containers to a subsequent treatment station.

Abstract: The apparatus for introducing blister-type products and the like into boxes, comprises a carousel rotatable about a horizontal axis and composed of box retention means, angularly distributed around the axis and a product distribution drum. On the product distribution drum a plurality of containers adapted for containing the products, and a corresponding plurality of pushers, are mounted slideable in a direction extending parallel to the axis and aligned with the box retention means. Fixed annular-cams are provided for controlling the sliding of the containers and the pushers so as to perform in succession the approach of each container to a related box and the introduction of the pusher into the container so as to push the products into the box.
