Claims
- 1. A device to bundle rolled bars which are advantageously flanged and channel sections coming from a delivery line, comprising a conveyor, retractable separating and sorting stops cooperating with said conveyor and transfer means able to take the bars from the conveyor and to place them in successive layers on suitable gathering and discharge means, said transfer means comprising a central shaft, a unidirectional rotatable symmetrical two-armed lever keyed to and supported on said central shaft, a swinging magnetic head having ends pivoted at one of its ends on an end of each of said arms around a horizontal axis substantially crosswise to said arm, said magnetic head rotatable multidirectionally and positionable so as to move towards and prolong the lengthwise axis of the relative arm when it is taking, carrying and laying down the bars.
- 2. The device as in claim 1, wherein said retractable separating stops can be actuated and positioned along the conveyor so as to position the bars to be abutted against said stops on said conveyor.
- 3. The device as in claim 1, including an actuator system secured to a flange solidly fixed to said central shaft which supports and rotates the two-armed lever, a second shaft parallel to said central shaft and pivoted on said flange and lever, a pinion mounted on said second shaft, a pinion mounted on said magnetic head, and a chain means interconnecting said pinions.
- 4. The device as in claim 1, including a discharge line and a vertically positionable storage surface able to receive successive layers forming the bundles and to discharge the complete bundles onto said discharge line.
- 5. The device as in claim 4, wherein said line to discharge bundles consists of powered rollers.
