Abstract:
A conveying machine for containers, comprising at least one base module having a predetermined length according to a feed direction of the containers and at least a supporting carriage for the containers slidably mounted on said base module. The base module and carriage together define a linear motor, wherein the stator is the base module and the rotor is the carriage. The machine comprises a supporting plate for the containers, which is rotatably mounted on the carriage and means for moving the plate, which is operatively connected to the plate to rotate it on itself.

Claim (Index 1):
A conveying machine for containers, the conveying machine comprising:\n at least one base module having a predetermined length along a feed direction of the containers for defining at least a part of a main feed circuit; at least one supporting carriage for the containers, slidably mounted on said base module and movable along the feed direction for moving the containers themselves; wherein said at least one base module and said at least one supporting carriage together define a linear motor that includes a stator and a rotor, wherein the stator comprises the base module and the rotor comprises the carriage; a supporting plate for supporting the containers, wherein the supporting plate is rotatably mounted on the carriage and is rotatable about an own axis transversal to the feed direction of the containers in such a way as to rotate a respective container, in use positioned on the supporting plate, about itself with respect to the carriage; means for moving the supporting plate, wherein the means for moving are operatively connected to the supporting plate to rotate the supporting plate about itself; at least an application unit of a recognising sign on the container arranged laterally with respect to the feed direction so as to apply the recognition sign on the container; a control unit operatively connected to the carriage for commanding movement thereof along the feed direction and operatively connected to the means for moving the supporting plate for activating the rotation of the supporting plate or for blocking the supporting plate in a desired rotated angular position; wherein said control unit is configured for: controlling the position of the carriage along the feed direction; activating the rotation of the plate before the carriage on which the plate is mounted has reached the application unit so as to bring the container loaded thereon into a desired angular position when the carriage reaches the application unit; subsequently applying the recognition sign on the container in the rotated angular position.
