Abstract
In a machine for making rigid hinge-lid packets, the lid of each packet is folded by a device () equipped with a plurality of pockets () occupied by respective single packets (P), each presenting a set of end folds () that will be bent inwards to form the lid (), also, a belt conveyor () by which the pockets () are directed along a predetermined folding path () between an infeed point () and an outfeed point (), a pulley () centred on a vertical axis (X) of rotation, and a folder unit () mounted to the rotating pulley (), interacting with a top part () of each pocket () in such a manner as to engage and bend the end folds () of the packet (P). The folding path () coincides with a branch of the belt conveyor () looped around the pulley ().
