  • Publication number: 20240059493
    Abstract: The bristle brush comprises a support plate (1), a plurality of bristles (2) emerging from one of the surfaces thereof, the distal ends of the bristles (2), the ones further from the support plate (1), defining a support surface intended to receive a piece to be transported and/or cut or handled, wherein the distal ends of the plurality of bristles (2) have a semi-spherical or conical shape ending in a tip. It enables a bristle brush to be provided wherein the distal ends of said bristles have a shape which enables the bristles to move when a cutting blade or any other element comes into contact with them, without damaging them.

  • Patent number: 11845611
    Abstract: The bristle brush comprises a support plate (1), a plurality of flexible bristles (2) emerging from one of the surfaces thereof, the ends of the bristles (2) furthest from the support plate (1) defining a support surface intended to receive a part to be transported and/or cut, wherein said support plate (1) comprises a leading edge (11) and a trailing edge (12), said leading (11) and trailing (12) edges comprising complementary shapes. It enables a conveyor belt formed by said brushes to achieve very small turning radii.

  • Publication number: 20220388181
    Abstract: The invention relates to an system for picking-up elements, comprising an automated arm (5) provided with at least one tool at one of its ends for picking up said elements (3), and a work surface (4) on which said elements (3) are placed, wherein said tool comprises at least one pick (1). Furthermore, the pick-up system also comprises a fixing-ejecting element (2), which removes from the at least one pick (1) an element (3) that has been picked up. The invention provides a system for picking-up elements which facilitates picking up, i.e., gripping, securing, conveying, and leaving, the elements.
