A take out device for a multi gob glassware forming machine comprises at least two take out tongs and adjusting means to alter the spacing of the tongs as the take out device moves from its pick up position to its deposit position. The adjusting means comprises a gear segment which is caused to rotate as the take out arm moves and, through a link, causes appropriate movement of a tong.

Take out device

A take out mechanism for a glassware forming machine comprises a parallel linkage for effecting movement of the takeout tongs. To enable adjustment of the position of the takeout tongs, the position of one of the fixed pivots of the parallel linkage may be adjusted.
