Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing fibrous cellulosic products, such as in particular handkerchiefs or rectangular or square napkins.
  • It can be a colored pattern that is printed on the product and / or an embossed motif in relief in the thickness of the product.
  • each stack of products include products with at least two different patterns, each stack alternately containing products having a first motif and products comprising a second motif separate from the first.
  • each series of products is produced independently of each other then the products are put in piles, by automated means, alternately coming to take a product in one or the other series of cut products.
  • This manufacturing process is particularly complex, slow and expensive in its final phase because it requires, in addition to the installations classics allowing the independent production of the two series of products, to have an additional facility for stacking alternated.
  • Another known technique is that used for the products of tangled facial type.
  • a handkerchief with embossing A followed by a handkerchief with embossing B it an embossing group should be installed on each of the cotton wool spools cellulose, hence a significant additional material.
  • the object of the invention is to propose a new method for manufacturing to remove the additional installation alternate stacking, and therefore reduce manufacturing time and cost of alternate product packages.
  • the cutting of the tape provides continuous flow of alternating products which can be immediately automatically stacked one after the other to build the desired stack.
  • the products are folded, in a longitudinal orientation before to be cut to size, and they can also be folded in a transverse orientation after being cut to size and before being stacked.
  • two continuous strips are produced simultaneously and adjacent for the simultaneous constitution of two piles comprising each at least two alternating products of different patterns, and both adjacent strips are produced in a single width which is separated longitudinally in two strips before cutting the strips.
  • the alternate products of each of the two adjacent bands can be the same length and aligned longitudinally or they can be offset longitudinally.
  • Each of the two bands may alternately include first and second products, a first product from one of the bands being for example adjacent to a second product of the other strip.
  • Each strip can have a combination of at least two folds individual, or sheets, of cellulose wadding, superimposed.
  • the two bands may be the same color or not, and be made of cotton wool cellulose different in nature.
  • the invention also relates to a continuous strip comprising successively and alternately in its length of the first and second fibrous cellulosic products respectively comprising a first and second decorative motif.
  • FIG. 1 shows an installation comprising a reel 10 from which a web 12 of cellulose wadding is unwound.
  • the width 12 which can be a folded sheet single or multiple, first pass through a calendering station 14 having function of smoothing the paper and giving it softness by passing between two calendering rollers 16.
  • the sheet 12 then passes to an embossing station 18 comprising for example a rubber cylinder 20 and an engraved steel cylinder 22, the post 18 having the function of marking in relief different patterns on the width 12, these patterns can also be colored.
  • an embossing station 18 comprising for example a rubber cylinder 20 and an engraved steel cylinder 22, the post 18 having the function of marking in relief different patterns on the width 12, these patterns can also be colored.
  • the embossing of patterns on the width 12 is such that it results in making two adjacent longitudinal strips, each in accordance with lessons of the invention, successively and alternately along its length, handkerchiefs M1 and M2 with patterns distinct decorative.
  • each of these bands has an even number of engraved patterns m1 and m2 successive and alternated according to the direction of movement M.
  • each engraved strip b1, b2, and therefore each strip of embossed paper B1, B2, thus comprises the two patterns alternately.
  • the design of the engraved cylinder 22 is also such as the patterns have the same circumferential length in the direction of travel M, and a first pattern m1 is aligned in the running direction with a pattern m2 of the other band.
  • the installation illustrated in Figure 1 includes a station 24, called slitting by which the bands B1 and B2 are separated by cutting. These then continue to run parallel and at the same speed on guide rollers 26 and 28 then to a station 30, not shown in details in the figures, where the longitudinal folding operations are carried out tissues.
  • the two bands then arrive at a common post 32 of cutting where the simultaneous cross section of the handkerchiefs of the two bands.
  • Each line then passes to a station 34 where a folding is carried out transverse to lead to the formation of two rows of tissues cut and folded. They finally leave the installation according to a arrangement which makes it possible to automatically carry out series of P stacks of handkerchiefs each of which has an alternating stack of handkerchiefs M1 and M2.
  • each stack P by packaging means (not shown in the figures) for making handkerchief packs each containing a case in which is housed a pile of handkerchiefs.
  • the strip patterns can be offset longitudinally by a strip adjacent to each other.
  • the invention is of course not limited to the case where each of the piles includes handkerchiefs belonging to two different series.
  • each strip comprises successively and alternately handkerchiefs with different decorations, for example three or four decorations different and successive.
  • the installation uses a sheet or width 12 consisting of three superimposed folds which, beyond the calendering station 14, are divided into a single lower S fold and an upper double D fold.
  • the upper double D fold is entrained between the cylinder in rubber 20 and the engraved cylinder 22 of the embossing station.
  • gluing station 36 which here is shown schematically in the form of a two-cylinder sizing group with doctor blade chamber, other more conventional sizing groups can be envisaged, for example of the known type with three cylinders.
  • the simple lower fold is married to the fold upper double embossed and glued by means of a matching cylinder 38.
  • an applicator cylinder 40 is provided having application zones corresponding to the peripheral zones handkerchiefs which will then be engraved.
  • the third simple lower fold S is assembled to the upper fold double D at the same time as we emboss the patterns with through cylinders 20 and 22.
  • the rest of the installation, downstream of the embossing station 18, is identical to that described and represented with reference to FIG. 1 and it allows stacks of tissues with two alternating patterns with edges glued and embossed.
