  • Publication number: 20240059506
    Abstract: A processing system includes a conveyance system including: a conveyance body unit having a conveyance surface; a movable body moving along the conveyance surface; and a conveyance control unit controlling a magnetism acting between the movable body and the conveyance body unit, wherein the movable body moves along the conveyance surface in a floating state where the movable body is separated from the conveyance surface due to the magnetism, wherein the conveyance control unit controls the magnetism to variably adjust one or more of a movement trajectory, a rotation state, a movement speed, a movement time and a posture of the movable body.

  • Patent number: 10543943
    Abstract: A horn and an anvil are moved toward and away from each other by axially reciprocating a driving rod and thereby reciprocatingly rotating a forked lever in a predetermined angle range. The horn and the anvil are moved toward and pressed against each other with a predetermined force with a bag mouth b held therebetween. A sensor detects the position of a second mounting block secured to the rear end of a sliding shaft of the anvil, thereby detecting the distance between respective pressing surfaces of the horn and the anvil, i.e. the thickness m of a portion of the bag mouth held between the pressing surfaces. When the thickness m is not less than a predetermined threshold value M, a vibrator is activated to perform sealing. When the thickness m is less than the threshold value M, no sealing is performed.
