A capper chuck is disclosed for applying a closure cap to a container, the capper chuck having retaining jaws which are adapted to receive and support a closure cap therebetween and have cooperation with an internal torque release lever and torsion spring arrangement operative to release the jaws from the closure cap after a predetermined rotational torque is effected between the closure cap and a container.
A capping unit wherein a number of capping heads, movable with a supporting carrousel conveyor about a first axis, are each rotated about a respective second axis by a respective first shaft movable axially on the carrousel conveyor, for moving the respective head to and from a respective container movable with the carrousel conveyor and coaxial with the second axis. Each head provides for closing the respective container with a cap presenting an internally threaded ring nut mounted for rotation on a pump-operated nozzle, and presents a first and second gripping device for respectively gripping the nozzle and the ring nut and controlled by a second shaft movable axially in relation to the first shaft. The first gripping device is angularly fixed in relation to the carrousel conveyor, whereas the second gripping device rotates with the capping head about the second axis.
An outer heat insulating structure on a building roof comprises a plurality of covering layer panels provided with a heat insulating layer and female screw members secured at corner portions in the covering layer panel in alignment with through-apertures provided therein with threaded rods capable of being threadedly engaged with the female screw members. Rubbery elastic members are arranged on a waterproof layer provided on the building roof and members which are secured to the rubbery elastic members and support rotatably lower ends of the threaded rods. A heat insulating layer is defined between the covering layer panel and the waterproof layer.
The invention relates to a device for screwing a cap on the neck of a container, said device comprising gripper means designed to tighten round the screw cap and to rotate it so as to screw it on to the neck of the container, actuating means designed to act on the gripper means in such a way as to rotate them about a longitudinal axis of the device, transmitting to them a drive torque that rotates the caps, and coupling elements fitted between the actuating means and the gripper means and designed to enable the transmission of torque and, when the torque exceeds a preset value, to interrupt it; means being envisaged for inhibiting transmission even when the torque falls below the preset value.
A capping unit for capping containers with respective caps, each presenting a spray head with a ring nut for fitting it to the threaded neck of the container; the capping unit presenting at least one capping head wherein a first gripping device grips a respective spray head, and a second gripping device presents two jaws for gripping the ring nut and rotating it in relation to the first gripping device; each jaw presenting a gripping roller integral with a respective planetary gear of an epicyclic drive wherein each planetary gear is barrel-shaped and presents teeth in turn presenting a convex longitudinal profile and meshing permanently with a straight-toothed outer ring gear regardless of the position of the relative jaw.
