Abstract
A device for separating, treating and rejoining objects includes a process wheel for transporting bottom and cover pieces of the objects, a separating device, and an insert device for inserting the pieces in the process wheel. The process wheel has a first lower receiving ring with a first radius and a second upper receiving ring with a second smaller radius which are jointly rotatable as a unit. A wheel assembly is arranged between the separating device and the process wheel. The wheel assembly has a first lower wheel with bottom holders distributed around the periphery and a second upper wheel with cover holders for the cover pieces distributed around the periphery. The bottom holders and/or the cover holders in the circumferential direction are larger than the received bottom pieces or cover pieces such that, in operation, they surround the bottom or cover pieces with a compensation play.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
