A plane-template conveyor for a thermoforming plant for obtaining a plurality or moulding of thermoformed hollow objects including at least one thermoforming press having at least one male die or mould, at least one female die and at least one picking up and transferring group for sequentially picking up and transferring mouldings of thermoformed objects from a die to a template conveyor, the said conveyor comprising a support frame which delimits an endless path, a plurality of templates movably mounted on the said endless path and each having a number of receiving seats equal to that of the objects of one mould, a plurality of driving means spaced along the said endless path to cause a sequential and discontinuous movement of the said templates at a predetermined speed between one template and the other.
A template conveyor comprising a support frame which delimits an endless path with at least one path section extending horizontally and at least one path section extending vertically, a plurality of templates movably mounted in sequence along said endless path and each template having a number of receiving seats for locating a respective object, and a driving means for said templates, wherein the said driving means are spaced along the said endless path to cause a predetermined relative movement between the said templates, thereby a first template is moved at one predetermined speed and a second template is moved at a different predetermined speed, and said templates are kept in constant substantially horizontal orientation such that a same side of said templates faces upward throughout said endless path.
A thermoforming plant for obtaining a plurality or a moulding of thermoformed hollow objects including:
