Abstract
Apparatus for a wrapping machine for wrapping a product with a film made of plastics, comprising a table which rotates around a wrapping axis and which supports the product to be wrapped, a frame provided with a plurality of supporting wheels, which are mounted free to rotate around respective rotating axes and which support the table, wherein the supporting wheels are connected to the frame so that the respective rotating axes are tiltable with respect to a supporting plane of the apparatus.

Apparatus for a wrapping machine for wrapping a product with a film made of plastics, comprising a table which rotates around a wrapping axis and which supports said product to be wrapped, a frame provided with a plurality of supporting wheels, which are mounted free to rotate around respective rotating axes and which support said table, said supporting wheels being connected to said frame by respective supporting pins, so that said rotating axes coincide with longitudinal axes of said supporting pins, wherein
- said supporting wheels are connected to said frame via said supporting pins so that said longitudinal axes of said supporting pins and coinciding respective rotating axes of said supporting wheels are tiltable with respect to a supporting plane of said apparatus;
- each supporting pin rotatingly supports a pair of supporting wheels, said supporting wheels being connected to respective ends of said supporting pin;
- and
- said frame comprises a plurality of seats suitable for receiving said supporting pins, each seat comprising an open slot configured so as to house an annular groove of a respective supporting pin, said annular groove being equidistant from said ends of said supporting pin, each seat having a length that is less than a width of said annular groove to enable the respective supporting pin to be tilted with respect to said supporting plane.
