ABSTRACT:
A palletizer for picking up a group of stacked cans from a first pick-up position on a conveyor, transporting the cans to a second deposit position and depositing the cans onto a pallet. The stacks of cans are accumulated on the conveyor by an exit gate prior to being picked up. The cans are also aligned on the conveyor by means of a retractable can guide adjacent the conveyor. The palletizer further includes a transport carriage movably mounted on a track of a frame. The carriage includes both a lift mechanism for lifting the cans off of the conveyor and a hold-down mechanism to steady the cans while they are being lifted and transported to the pallet. Finally a push bar unloading mechanism disengages the cans from the lift mechanism and snugs them against the other cans on the pallet.
