Unit For Supplying Products

A blister-packing machine for packing products internally of cells (3a) of a celled strip (3), the celled strip (3) being advanced according to a horizontal advancement line (A), comprising a unit (1) for supplying products (2) having a flat element (8) provided with a through-slit (10), the unit (1) being positionable with respect to the line of the blister-packing machine such that the slit (10) is arranged above the cells (3, 3a) advancing on the line;

• a disc (4) affording through-holes (6) on which disc (4) products (2) to be inserted in the cells (3, 3a) are supplied, each through-hole (6) of said through-holes (6) being of such a size as to be able to receive and house internally thereof a respective product (2), said disc (4) being mounted above said flat element (8) such that the products (2) housed in the through-holes (6) rest on the flat element (8), the disc (4) also being activatable in rotation with respect to the flat element (8), and with respect to the cells (3, 3a) advancing along the line, in order to bring the products (2) housed in the through-holes (6) above the slit (10) contemporaneously with a transit of the cells (3, 3a) below said slit (10) such that the products (2) fall directly internally of the cells (3, 3a), the unit (1) being arranged such that the slit (10) of the flat element (8) is above a transit region of the advancement line of the celled strip (3) at which region the celled strip (3) passes from a horizontal advancement configuration (A) to an inclined advancement configuration (V) distancing from the flat element (8) such that between the slit (10) and the celled strip (3) there is a progressive split in level (H) growing in a direction corresponding to an advancing direction of the strip (3).
