Abstract
A machine for making glass containers having a number of displaceable mechanisms comprising a plurality of selectively operable regulators for controlling the operation of the displaceable mechanisms, a control panel including a corresponding plurality of toggle switches switchable between select and deselect positions, each toggle switch being associated with one of the regulators. The control panel is enabled when all of the toggle switches are in the down position and start motion buttons pushed simultaneously will implement the machine state defined by the operator by locating specific toggle switches in the select position.
Claims6
A machine for making glass containers comprising
- a plurality of mechanisms displaceable between known positions,
- means including a corresponding plurality of selectively operable regulators for displacing said mechanisms between said known positions,
- a corresponding plurality of toggle switches switchable between regulator on and regulator off positions, each toggle switch corresponding to one of said regulators,
- first and second depressible start buttons,
- means for enabling said first and second depressible start buttons, and
- means for operating each regulator that has its corresponding toggle switch positioned on, when said first and second enabled start buttons are depressed simultaneously.
