Patent ID: 8641027

Claim:
A turntable for a wrapping machine for rotating an article to be wrapped up, the turntable comprising a rotatable round cover plate comprising two grooves in parallel with each other and arranged at a distance from each other, wherein the grooves extend from the edge of the cover plate on both sides of the diameter of the cover plate and in parallel to the diameter, and wherein the grooves are adapted to receive the forks of the lifting fork so that the article to be wrapped up can be conveyed by the pallet truck onto the cover plate to be supported by it, and respectively off the cover plate, a base plate which is immovably supported to a fixed base, wherein the cover plate which is to be rotated relative to the base plate is bearing-mounted to rotate about a central vertical rotating axis, a vertical wall substantially perpendicularly on the periphery of the base plate, wherein the vertical wall comprises an opening, an access ramp fitted in alignment with the opening and mounted to the vertical wall so that the forks of the lifting fork can be conveyed to the grooves of the cover plate through the access ramp, characterized in that the vertical wall comprises at least two openings directed from the rotating axis radially in different directions from each other to fit the access ramp selectively in alignment with at least one of the openings, so as to selectively determine the approach direction of the pallet truck.
