Patent ID: 7879281

Claim:
A device for molding objects of plastic material, which comprises: a) an injection mold including two half-molds defining in a closed position, a plurality of injection cavities corresponding to the objects; b) means for moving said half-molds in reciprocal motion toward and away from each other, defining a closed position and an open position, respectively; c) an extraction arm for removing objects from said mold that is provided with gripping elements for gripping objects from said mold, and being translatable between a first position inserted into the space between said half-molds when said mold is in an open position, and a second position outside said half-molds; d) a conditioning turret having two sides in opposing relation, each side including a group of conditioning cups with means for receiving and retaining molded objects from said extraction arm, said turret being supported for rotational movement about an essentially horizontal axis followed by vertical displacement from a first higher position under said extraction arm, to a second to position relatively spaced from said extraction arm; and e) an extraction table positioned adjacent said second position of said conditioning turret and having associated therewith, gripping elements positioned, configured and dimensioned for engaging and selectively extracting objects from said conditioning turret cups when said gripping elements of said extraction table are translated along a path generally perpendicular to said rotational axis of said turret.
