Separating machine for injection moulded articles and trimmings - has rotary sieve with boxes on outside of outlet slots for separation without clogging

摘要

The material to be sepd. passes through the inlet opening into the rotating sepg. drum which is set on an incline so that as it rotates the useful parts and the trimmings pass into the outlet slots which are set evenly spaced round the perimeter of the drum. Boxes are set on the outer face of the drum with their internal border matching the border of the outlet slot. THe size of the slot and of the box can be adjusted by a displaceable web which can close up the box should smaller articles be sorted. This web projects a short distance into the separating drum to act as a baffle face directing the parts into the outlet slot and thus into the box.
