Abstract: The disclosure relates to a packaging machine and to a method of forming a vacuum package. A first evacuable chamber is used for accommodating therein a product-accommodating section of a package, whereas a second evacuable chamber is used for accommodating therein an opening section of the package. Pressure gauges measure the pressure in both chambers, and a supply air valve serves to supply air into the first chamber. The disclosure is characterized in that the supply air valve is a control valve and is adapted to be controlled in dependence upon the difference between the pressures which prevail in the first and second chambers and which are measured by means of the two pressure gauges. The disclosure also relates to the fact that a gap is provided in a partition between the two chambers and that an adjuster is provided for varying and adjusting the cross-sectional area of said gap.

Abstract: A lifting device for the movement of a chamber upper part of a chamber conveyor belt machine, the lifting device having first and second lifting mechanisms. The first lifting mechanism may be driven by a motorized drive, and the second lifting mechanism may be driven by an adjusting cylinder. The lifting device may further include a connection element for coupling the two lifting mechanisms.

Abstract: A device for conveying objects includes a conveyor belt for the transport of the objects and fluid nozzles for the treatment of the objects. The device is characterised in that in addition to the conveyor belt a second belt is provided which is arranged above the conveyor belt in order to retain an object on the conveyor belt. This transport device can be installed in a packaging system, in particular in a tunnel dryer or in a shrink tunnel for packages.
