ABSTRACT:
A system for distributing successively formed groups of glass gobs from a feeder bowl to the several individual sections of a Hartford I.S. type glassware forming machine includes a single scoop for each gob in the group, and mechanism for rotating the scoops between successive positions wherein each is aligned with a chute associated with a particular mold cavity in each machine section. A "double-gob" installation is described and the two scoops have associated annular spur gears which are driven in unison by a reciprocable rack gear through a predetermined schedule of angular displacements to successively align the two scoops with several sets of paired chutes according to a particular order and to then repeat this schedule. A cam follower connected to the rack gear causes programmed movement thereof in response to rotation of a cam having lobes of predetermined height to produce the predetermined schedule of angular displacements of the scoops.
