Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for producing packaging from foldable (thin) packaging material, in particular paper, film or the like, wherein blanks are separated from a material web of the packaging material one after the other and fed to a folding unit, in particular a folding turret, for wrapping an object.
  • foldable packaging material in particular paper, film or the like
  • the invention is primarily concerned with problems in the manufacture of soft-cup packaging for cigarettes.
  • the packaging machines used for this work with high performance and thus high speed of the moving organs. This makes it especially difficult to handle thin, critical packaging material such as paper, foil, tin foil etc.
  • the feeding of blanks to the folding unit, in particular to a folding turret, requires special measures above all if the folding turret rotates continuously.
  • the material web or the blank can be gripped on one side by a conveyor at most in an edge area.
  • the invention has for its object to ensure the transport of material webs or blanks in connection with packaging machines even at high conveying speeds and thin packaging material, so that the packaging material or the blanks can be fed correctly and without creases.
  • the device according to the invention is characterized in that a free start of the web of material and / or of the blank separated from the web for feeding to the folding unit can be detected by a holding and conveying member which extends over the width of the web or the blank and is transportable.
  • the particularly critical edge region of the material web or the blank lying in the direction of transport is additionally detected by a separate conveying element and is preferably fixed along the full width during the transport.
  • a holding and conveying element designed in the form of a finger or rod serves to grasp the front edge region of the material web or blank, in particular by suction.
  • the holding and conveying member is moved synchronously with at least one endless conveyor for material web or blank.
  • the holding and conveying member which extends transversely to the conveying direction or transversely to the material web, is expediently attached to the conveyor for the material web or the blank itself.
  • the invention can be used in a folding turret in which hollow folding mandrels projecting along the circumference are attached, to which the blanks of the packaging material are to be placed.
  • a folding turret is known and customary above all for the production of (soft) cup packs for cigarettes.
  • the holding and conveying element occurs with a start of the path or a front region of a blank between two successive folding mandrels so that the blank is taken along as a result of the movement of the folding mandrels and is removed from the holding and conveying member. This then returns to the starting position to record a new, subsequent cut.
  • the folding turret is expediently designed in accordance with EP 0 226 872, the holding and conveying member being attached to a (suction) disk for feeding the material web or the blank, oriented axially parallel.
  • the holding and conveying member can, however, also be connected to other endless conveyors for material web or cutting, for example to a belt conveyor.
  • the handling of thin packaging material, such as paper, tinfoil, film in connection with a folding turret 10 for the production of (cigarette) packaging of the soft cup type is shown as a preferred exemplary embodiment.
  • the folding turret 10 is only shown schematically as a section, specifically on the basis of folding mandrels 11 distributed along the circumference and arranged at equal distances from one another.
  • the folding turret can advantageously be designed according to EP 0 226 872.
  • Folding mandrels 11 are known aids for folding blanks 12 in the manufacture of the wrappings for a cigarette group 13.
  • the folding mandrels 11 are designed as hollow bodies which are open on both sides and made of thin-walled material.
  • the folding mandrels 11 are projecting on one side in axially parallel formation on a carrier of the folding turret 10, in the present case on a turret disk 14.
  • the relative position of the folding mandrels 11 is selected such that large-area outer walls 15 point radially outwards and corresponding, opposite inner walls 16 point inwards .
  • a narrow front wall 17 and a correspondingly designed rear wall 18 are approximately radially directed.
  • the blanks 12 for an inner wrapping (paper / tinfoil) and for a cup (predominantly paper) are folded in succession.
  • the supply of the blanks 12 to the folding mandrels 11 during continuous transport of the folding turret 10 is critical.
  • the problems arise on the one hand from the poor dimensional stability of the packaging material and on the other hand from the high operating speeds of the packaging machine. It is a question of inserting the blank 12, which has been separated from a material web 19, into the area between two folding mandrels 11a and 11b which follow one another in the circumferential direction, that is to say into the gap formed between them.
  • the following folding mandrel 11b grasps the blank 12 with the front wall 17 lying forward in the conveying direction and takes the blank 12 with a U-shaped fold (FIG. 7).
  • the material web is fed to a cutting station by feed rollers 20 - coming from a bobbin, not shown.
  • This consists here of a (continuously) revolving knife roller 21 with a separating knife 22.
  • This acts together with a fixed counter knife 23, so that the material web 19 lying on the circumference of the knife roller 21 is severed to form the blank 12.
  • the material web 19 or the blank 12 is transferred from the knife roller 21 equipped with suction bores to an intermediate roller 24 also equipped with suction bores. This accelerates the cutting 12 and passes it on to a transfer roller 25. From there, the blank 12 is taken over by the actual supply member, which keeps the blank 12 in a curved, cylindrical shape ready for taking over by a folding mandrel 11.
  • the cutting assembly described so far preferably corresponds to EP 226 872 with regard to further details.
  • the organ for holding a blank 12 in the area of the folding turret 10 consists of a continuously rotating, endless conveyor, namely a holding disk 26. This is fixed in position, namely next to the folding turret 10 or next to the path of movement of the folding mandrels 11. As shown in FIG 2 can be seen, the holding disk 26 is positioned on the side opposite the turret disk 14 directly next to the folding mandrels 11.
  • the blank 12 is transferred from the transfer roller 25 to the circumference of the holding disk 26 in such a way that an edge strip of the blank 12 extending in the conveying direction bears against the circumference of the holding disk 26.
  • the holding disc 26 is provided for fixing the blank 12 with radially directed suction bores 27 which open on a cylindrical, outer peripheral surface 40 for the blank 12.
  • the blank 12 is given a partially cylindrical shape by the holding disc 26.
  • the folding mandrel 11b receiving the blank 12 is enveloped by this blank 12.
  • the holding disk 26 is subjected to negative pressure via a unit known in principle.
  • the holding disc 26 itself rests on a fixed supply disc 28. This is provided on the side facing the holding disc 26 with circular suction grooves 29. Connection bores 30 of the holding disk 26 temporarily adjoin these.
  • the axially parallel connection bores 30 connect to the suction bores 27.
  • the segment-shaped suction groove 29 is connected to a suction line 31 leading to a vacuum source.
  • the holding disk 26 is driven in rotation via a drive wheel 32 and a shaft 33.
  • At least one member is attached to the holding disk 26 and extends transversely to the conveying direction or transversely to the blank 12. It is a holding and conveying element 34 which detects an end or edge region of the blank 12 (or a material web 19) lying forward in the transport direction and preferably fixed by suction.
  • the holding and conveying member 34 is an elongated, finger-shaped or rod-shaped hollow body that extends over the full width of the blank 12.
  • Fig. 2 two blanks 12 of different widths are shown symbolically, namely a wider blank 12 of paper or tinfoil as the inner wrapper and a blank 12 of smaller width of paper to form the (outer) cup of the packaging.
  • the cuts are in full width on the holding and conveying member 34.
  • the holding and conveying member 34 is designed so that it forms an outer, preferably curved contact surface 35 for the blank 12.
  • a number of suction bores 36 arranged next to one another open out.
  • the end region of the blank 12 is held on the contact surface 35 by these.
  • the suction bores 36 lead to a common channel 37 which extends in the longitudinal direction of the holding and conveying member 34.
  • the channel 37 is connected to one of the connecting bores 30 in the holding disc 26, so that the holding and conveying member 34 is acted upon by suction air.
  • the holding and conveying member 34 is attached to the holding disk 26 so as to project or protrude on one side.
  • the contact surface 35 lies flush with the peripheral surface 40 of the retaining disk 26.
  • the holding disc 26 is positioned centrally to the movement path 38 of the folding mandrels 11. Outside the area of the folding turret 10, the holding disk 26 takes over a blank 12 from the transfer roller 25.
  • the relative position is selected such that the holding and conveying member 34 of the transfer roller 25 is facing the moment a blank 12 is taken over and an initial area of the blank 12 is itself is located adjacent to this.
  • FIGS. 3 to 7 show a position analogous to Fig. 1.
  • a pressure element 39 is assigned to each folding mandrel 11, for example a roller, which rotates with the folding turret 10.
  • the transverse pressure element 39 lies on the rear or rear wall 18 of the folding mandrel 11a located in front of it in the direction of movement.
  • the pressing member 39 is moved against the front wall 17 of this folding mandrel 11b, so that the blank 12 is fixed here (FIG. 7).
  • the holding disc 26 and thus the holding and conveying member 34 are driven in a special way, namely with a special movement characteristic depending on the machine cycle.
  • the holding disk 26 and thus the blank 12 stand still to ensure the takeover process.
  • the holding disc 26 is accelerated and moved so that the holding and conveying member 34 is moved between two successive folding mandrels, namely between the folding mandrel 11b which has taken over the blank 12 and the subsequent folding mandrel 11c.
  • the further movement characteristic of the holding disk 26 is designed such that the holding and conveying member 34 comes into the position according to FIG. 3 at the moment when the next blank 12 by the transfer roller 25 in the manner shown, namely with a front edge area for receiving is held ready by the holding and conveying member 34.
  • the special reciprocal effect between the feed member with a holding and conveying member 34 designed as a finger or arm on the one hand and the continuously rotating folding mandrels 11 is that due to the direction of rotation of the holding disk 26, the holding and conveying member 34 essentially after receiving a blank 12 is moved in the direction of movement of the folding mandrels 11, then plunges into the folding turret 10 in the radial direction and is moved back in the opposite direction within the latter.
  • the holding and conveying member 34 is moved past the front and back of one and the same, the blank 12 taking over the folding mandrel 11b.
  • the device can also be designed in such a way that another (endless) conveying element is used for the blank 12 instead of the holding disk 26.
  • These can be (suction) belts.
  • the holding and conveying member 34 is attached to the conveying member or to the belts. It is also conceivable that the holding and conveying member 34 is moved separately from other guiding members of the blank 12 by a separate gear along an adapted path.
