Abstract: A connecting member for a snow-removal set having a snow-removal blade and a snow-removal scraper, the connecting member being configured to be fastened to the snow-removal blade and to cooperate with the snow-removal scraper, the connecting member including at least one fastening portion configured to be fastened directly or indirectly on the snow-removal blade, a receiving portion configured to cooperate with a complementary connecting member formed on the snow-removal scraper, and a locking portion including at least one locking element configured to lock the connecting member between the snow-removal scraper and the snow-removal blade, where the locking element includes a bearing portion extending in the receiving portion of the connecting member, the bearing portion being configured to exert a force on the complementary member of the snow-removal scraper in a mounted locked position.

Abstract: A connecting member for a snow-removal set, the snow-removal set including at least one snow-removal blade and one snow-removal scraper, the connecting member being configured to be fastened to the snow-removal blade of the set and to cooperate with the snow-removal scraper, the connecting member including at least one fastening portion configured to be fastened directly or indirectly on the snow-removal blade, at least one receiving portion configured to cooperate with a complementary connecting member formed on the snow-removal scraper and in that the connecting member including at least one locking portion including at least one locking element configured to lock the connecting member between the snow-removal scraper and the snow-removal blade and in that the locking element includes at least one bearing portion extending at least partially in the receiving portion of the connecting member, the bearing portion of the locking element being configured to exert a force on the complementary member of the snow-

Abstract: A gripper which can hold the adhesive tape between its branches is mounted on a chain driven in a loop. In a gripping area at the start of the outgoing portion, the gripper is closed around the adhesive tape unwound from the reel. The gripper which is kept closed is then moved along the outgoing portion, thus pulling the adhesive tape up to a release area where it is stopped. The adhesive tape is then cut across by a cutting system designed to hold the adhesive tape on both the upstream and the downstream sides. The gripper is then opened, and the cut piece is transferred to a user station. The gripper is then returned to the gripping area by driving the chain.

Abstract: A device for making it possible to apply to a pack, moved along a conveyor, a handle (n) of nominal length L situated at the end of a tape. The tape includes a succession of handles (n+i), each handle comprising two adhesive ends and a central part. The device includes a feeder to move the tape as far as a rotary application arm having a length which is equal to the nominal length L. This arm is able to deposit one adhesive end of the handle n on one face of the pack and then the second end of the handle n on a second face of the pack. The device further includes an optical cell for detecting an offset in the position of a handle n+i, an actuator for elongating the length of the rotary arm beyond the nominal length L, making it possible during a rotation of this arm to draw a portion of tape having a length greater than the nominal length, and a control unit.

Abstract: This device making it possible to apply to a pack (3), moved along a conveyor (2), a handle n of nominal length L situated at the end of a tape (7) comprises a succession of handles (n+i), each handle comprising two adhesive ends and a central part, the device comprising means for feeding the tape (7) as far as a rotary application arm having a length which is equal to the nominal length L, this arm being able to deposit one adhesive end of the handle n on one face of the pack (3) and then the second end of the handle n on a second face of the pack (3) during a 180° rotation of the arm (18) which is synchronous with the advancing movement of the pack (3) on the conveyor (2).
