A blank heating and feeding device for manufacturing containers from thermoplastic semi-products, particularly bottles from pet

摘要

The feeder which is in a shape of the closed band (2), particularly in a form of the caterpillar. The band (2) contains panels (3) with at least one rotary head (4) in every panel (3) wherein the rotary head is used for mounting the blanks in the upper part (5) of the panels (3). The band is connected through the guiding wheel (6) with the mechanism (7) of incrementally - rotational movement. The rotary heads cooperate with the frictional belt (9) which is pressed by the rotary elements (13). The frictional belt (9) is connected with the driving gear (10). A heating device (11), which is preferably in the form of the tunnel, is placed along the section of minimal distance (14) between the external profiles of the leading wheels (6). The device according to the invention is particularly beneficial as a blank heating and feeding device for producing containers from thermoplastic semi-products, particularly bottles from PET.
