Abstract
The present invention relates to a device for transporting ready-cut and filled pieces of tube. In order to simplify the structural design of a device for transporting ready-cut and filled pieces of tube within a machine for producing double-chamber bags filled with brewable material, having a transport wheel, which has distributed over its circumference a plurality of double-chamber bag forming sets comprising a leading arm and a trailing arm and a profile part provided therebetween and being radially movable and supporting a bottom of a double-chamber bag, and which is rotatably mounted under a cover arranged in the vicinity of the upper vertex of the transport wheel, the present invention proposes that the arms are swivelably mounted eccentrically to the axis of rotation of the transport wheel and that the arms of adjacent double-chamber bag forming sets are swivelably mounted on a common swivel axis.
