Abstract
The invention concerns a device for handling preforms for heating units. The device includes a mandrel that defines a rotation axis of the preforms; a tip mounted at an end of the mandrel and having a part penetrating into the neck of the preforms; a rubbing contact rigidly connected to the tip; and a heatsink rigidly connected to the mandrel and intended to come into contact with the tip. The tip also includes a cooling part axially in line with the penetrating part. The cooling part includes at least one thermal exchange raised portion in contact with the surrounding air. Furthermore, the tip is mounted such that it can be mobile on the mandrel.
Claims14
A device for handling preforms for heating units, comprising:
- a mandrel defining a rotation axis of the preforms;
- a tip mounted at a first end of the mandrel and having a part penetrating into the neck of the preforms;
- a rubbing contact rigidly connected to the tip, and
- a heatsink rigidly connected to the mandrel and intended to come into contact with the tip, wherein
- the tip further comprises a cooling part axially in line with the penetrating part, the cooling part including at least one thermal exchange raised portion in contact with the surrounding air, and in that the tip is mounted to be mobile on the mandrel and wherein the penetrating part and the cooling part form a one-piece assembly.
