Zusammenfassung: | A mechanism for aligning closure caps in a cap feeding system including in particular caps with irregularly shaped skirts. Caps in a moving line of randomly orientated caps are sensed and aligned so that all caps emerging therefrom having their covers facing the same direction. The cap selector mechanism has a revolving cap feed star wheel with cap receiving pockets. A cap inverting wheel (6) is mounted at one side of the star wheel having arms for engaging and tilting of the star wheel having arms for engaging and tilting inverted caps in the star wheel pockets so that they are carried into a toroidal cap guide means (13) with a turnover cam arrangement as they leave the inverting wheel. The turnover cam means has an elongated arcuate camming slot for receiving the edges of the tilted caps and for completing their inversion as the caps are moved along the cam towards its outlet end while the caps are spaced from one another by the pockets of the rotating cap feed star wheel. |
