Publication number: 20230113494Abstract: A sealing machine and method for controlling a sealing machine Includes the following steps: placing capped containers provided with a seal on plates, rotating the plates, pressing the seal against the cap of the container and fastening said seal using a sealing head. The step of rotating the plates is performed by rotating each plate independently of the other plates. The method further includes: detecting at least one parameter associated with the rotation of a plate and/or with a compression load between each sealing head and the seal, and comparing the value of the detected parameter with a reference range.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2022Publication date: April 13, 2023Inventors: Paolo DEGLIESPOSTI, Luca MARIANI, Vincenzo PONTICELLI, Giampaolo GIANESE, Luca TESTONI, Luca LANZARINI

Patent number: 11492159Abstract: A system for transferring a group of components of electronic cigarettes from a first to a second operating station includes a conveyor extends from a feeding zone to a disengagement zone and has a plurality of seats. A feeding device receives the components and feeds them into the seats at a first mutual distance. A disengaging and transferring device operates to disengage the components from their seats and transfer the components to a collecting zone. A compacting device operates in the collecting zone to move the components closer together and place them at a second mutual distance that is smaller than the first mutual distance. A tray faces and receives from the collecting zone the group of components which have been placed close together. A pushing device pushes the components from the collecting zone into the tray. A movement device transfers the tray to the second operating station.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2018Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: G.D S.P.A.Inventors: Luca Testoni, Luca Lanzarini, Francesco Renco, Luca Mariani, Mirco Legnani, Massimo Sartoni, Luca Federici

Patent number: 11370566Abstract: A system for transferring a first group of components of electronic cigarettes from first to second operating stations includes a flat collecting surface extending from a feeding zone to a releasing zone. A feeding device receives the components and feeds them onto the collecting surface. A first abutment element abuts the first component of the first group. A second abutment element abuts the last component of the first group. A compacting and stabilizing device moves the components closer together and stabilizes their positions. A first movement device moves the first and second abutment elements along the collecting surface to transfer the first group to the releasing zone. A tray faces the releasing zone to receive the first group. A pushing device pushes the components from the releasing zone into the tray. A transferring device transfers the tray with the first group towards the second operating station.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2018Date of Patent: June 28, 2022Assignee: G.D S.P.A.Inventors: Luca Testoni, Luca Lanzarini, Francesco Renco, Luca Mariani, Mirco Legnani, Massimo Sartoni, Luca Federici

Patent number: 9222492Abstract: A fluid cooling device (1) as a structural unit has a drive motor (2) driving a rotatable fan impeller (3) and has a storage tank (4) with a filling opening (6) and a fill-level indicator (7). Fluid can be conveyed from the tank into a hydraulic working circuit. In the hydraulic working circuit, the fluid is heated and is cooled via a heat exchanger (5) of the structural unit, and returned into the storage tank (4). The structural unit is designed as a turning assembly in which the filling opening (6) for fluid and the fill-level indicator (7) are disposed on the storage tank (4) such that they can be used and read in a first vertical installation direction (X, Y) of the structural unit, and in a second installation direction (Y, X) inclined with respect to the first installation direction (X, Y), preferably at a right angle.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2011Date of Patent: December 29, 2015Assignee: HYDAC AGInventors: Guiseppe Zeolla, Luca Mariani
