UNIT FOR AND METHOD OF STACKING SLATS ON A SUPPORT LADDER FOR THE PRODUCTION OF VENETIAN BLINDS
The invention concerns a stacking unit of slats on a complete support ladder for the production of Venetian blinds, wherein the complete ladder comprises two uprights (P1, P2), which support a plurality of cross-members (T1, T2) of engagement with the slats arranged at regular distances along the longitudinal extension of the same uprights. The stacking unit comprises: - means (20) for guiding a slat (L) along a longitudinal insertion lane (X) on an insertion plane (m); - means (31, 32) for positioning a complete ladder on a positioning plane (p) incident to said insertion plane (m) at an engagement area (2) with the slats; - means (40) for associating the slat to said ladder at said engagement area (2) acting on said cross-members (T1, T2); and a loader (50), arranged above the insertion plane (m), within which, one at a time, the slats are progressively pushed, juxtaposed to each other, after being associated to the ladder. The positioning means comprise two U-shaped guides (31, 32) which are arranged, spaced transversely apart from each other, on two opposite sides of said longitudinal insertion lane (X) and each of which defines a sliding seat (33) for an upright (P1 or P2) of the ladder along a sliding direction (Y1, Y2) lying on said positioning plane (p). Each sliding seat (33) is open on the longitudinal insertion lane (X) through a slit (34) which extends parallel to said sliding direction (Y1, Y2) to allow in use the passage for said cross-members (T1, T2) from one upright to the other as well as the free sliding of the cross-members through the two U-shaped guides, in said slit (34) each guide (31, 32) having a cross-section bottleneck (35) delimiting said sliding seat (33). Each of these U-shaped guides (31, 32) is divided into two parts (31', 31") that are reciprocally movable to pass between at least one closed guide position and at least one open guide position. In the open guide position, the cross-section bottleneck (34) of said sliding seat (33) defines a wider through opening than in the closed guide position.
