20120118704 | Automated packing system - An automated packing system includes a first conveyor conveying goods to a location where the goods are dropped off a belt. A second conveyor is provided beneath the end of the first conveyor so that the goods fall into a box at the area where the second conveyor is located under the end of the first conveyor. Means are provided on the second conveyor to sense the presence of a box aligned under the end of the first conveyor, whereupon an escapement cylinder is activated to retain the box in that position. A controller counts the number of goods placed into the box and when the number is the number that fills the box, the controller releases the escapement cylinder allowing the box to move away from its position under the force of gravity and subsequently the next empty box moves into position under the end of the first conveyor. When the next box arrives at the desired location under the end of the first conveyor, a sensor senses that location and reactivates the escapement cylinder. A sensor senses the presence of goods being conveyed on the first conveyor and also includes a stop cylinder. The sensor enables the controller to count the number of goods that have passed by the sensor and this enables the controller to know when the number of goods that fill a box has passed by. | 05-17-2012 |
