Abstract
A mold-supporting system for a machine for forming hollow glassware, includes a supporting structure, a first carriage and a second carriage, which are slidably mounted respectively on a first bar and a second bar of the supporting structure, and carry, respectively, a first mold-carrier arm and a second mold-carrier arm. A mutual displacement of the first and second carriages between a position where they are set close to one another and a corresponding position where they are set apart is controlled. On one between the first and second carriages, means are provided for guiding the other between the first and second carriages during their mutual displacement.

A mould-supporting system for a machine for forming hollow glassware, comprising:
- a supporting structure;
- a first carriage and a second carriage, which are slidably mounted respectively on a first bar and a second bar of said supporting structure, and carry, respectively, a first mould-carrier arm and a second mould-carrier arm;
- and
- means for controlling mutual displacement of said first and second carriages between a position where they are set close to one another and a corresponding position where they are set apart;
- said second carriage comprising means for guiding said first carriage during a mutual displacement of said first carriage and said second carriage.

- a supporting structure;
- a first carriage and a second carriage, which are slidably mounted respectively on a first bar and a second bar of said supporting structure, and carry, respectively, a first mould-carrier arm and a second mould-carrier arm;
- and
- said first carriage connected to a first shaft and said second carriage connected to a second shaft, said first shaft and said second shaft coupled to a crank mechanism for controlling mutual displacement of said first and second carriages between a position where they are set close to one another and a corresponding position where they are set apart;
- said second carriage comprising a guide path extending in a direction parallel to said first bar,
- said first carriage comprising a sliding block slidably engaging said guide path;
- said guide path defined by opposed blocks received in a space bounded by longitudinal flanges of said second carriage;
- said opposed blocks adjustable relative to said flanges via a plurality of adjusting members extending though said flanges to contact and hold said opposed blocks such that said opposed blocks guide said first carriage during a mutual displacement of said first carriage and said second carriage.
