Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device and a method for Packaging of general cargo according to the preamble of claim 1 or 18.
  • GB-A-1'444'640 describes a device for packaging stacked biscuits.
  • the biscuits are stacked placed on a cardboard cover.
  • the cardboard cover and the biscuits be by means of a driver in the conveying direction pushed forward where the carton folded in a folding station and in a subsequent tubular bag station in a hose is introduced.
  • the hose is then in a Welding and cutting unit divided into tubular bags.
  • general cargo of a first kind on a fed first conveyor and the piece goods of a second kind become via supply stations so by means of a second conveyor arranged that the piece goods of the second kind already layered lie on top of each other and form groups.
  • the grouped piece goods second kind are then on the piece goods first Kind of laid.
  • the inventive device is particularly suitable for Piece goods of the first kind with essentially cubic or flat cylindrical shapes and for piece goods of the second kind in Shape of flat bags. Even if the piece goods of the first and second type do not have a completely flat support surface and the piece goods of the second kind also have the tendency to down To slide, the inventive device allows a Grouping and a joint packaging. In particular it is possible to place two or more bags on a noodle patty and these together in a horizontal flow wrapper to wrap.
  • the device according to the invention for different combinations of piece goods leaves.
  • it is easy to different Sizes of piece goods customizable.
  • the conveying means is merely formed by carriers and the cargo of the second kind be directly from the second conveyor to the general cargo of the first kind placed.
  • the cargo of the second kind is directly from the second conveyor to the general cargo of the first kind placed.
  • the cargo of the second kind is one stationary surface, a so-called dead plate, present, along which pushed the grouped piece goods of the second kind before they are placed on the piece goods of the first kind become. This can be the distance between group formation and choose any packaging in the tubular bag.
  • each Feed station arranged a second conveyor, which a downward contact surface for the promotion of general cargo second type.
  • a first embodiment of the device according to the invention has a first conveyor 1 for the supply of general cargo of a first type A.
  • Piece goods A preferably each have one at least approximately planar bearing surface, which is directed upward. In this example, it is the above-mentioned pasta patties.
  • the first conveyor 1 is designed as a circulating chain conveyor. He has drivers 10, which the piece goods first Art A clocked in a first horizontal conveying direction push forward until it is in a below described Get packing station 7.
  • the first conveying direction is in of Figure 1 shown with an arrow.
  • feed stations 2 In a direction perpendicular to the first conveying direction and thus vertical Level above the first conveyor 1 at least one, arranged here three feed stations 2.
  • the feed stations can also be arranged at an angle.
  • the feed stations 2 are used for the supply of piece goods of the second type B. These cargo second type B are lined up in the form of ribbons Supplied to bags.
  • the feed stations 2 point for this suitable deflection rollers 20 and corresponding separating means 21, in particular Cutting devices with rotating knives, on. Such feed stations 2 are sufficient in the prior art Therefore, they are not described in detail here.
  • the piece goods of the second kind can, however, do not have to be identical be educated. They can, as described above, off Consist of bags. However, it is also possible that at least a part of the cargo of the second type B has a different shape. For example, they can cook instructions printed on paper, be unpacked ingredients or cutlery.
  • a second conveyor 3 is arranged below the supply stations 2, but laterally above the first conveyor 1, a second conveyor 3 is arranged. In the embodiment described here, it is formed by a circulating in a horizontal plane conveyor belt. In this case, a partial region of the second conveyor 3 extends at least approximately parallel to the first conveying direction. In this section, the separated in the individual feed stations 2 bags are placed. These bags, which now form the piece goods of the second type B, are placed on the second conveyor 3 so that they are at least partially superimposed, that is, they are stacked. Thereby they form first groups. This can be achieved in different ways. In the example shown here, a first bag is placed on the second conveyor 3 from the first feeding station 2 in the conveying direction.
  • From the subsequent feed station 2 also passes a bag on the second conveyor 3, wherein this comes to lie slightly forward in the conveying direction on the first bag. This is repeated in the third feed station.
  • This shingle-like layering has the advantage that the bags move the least during further transport and the beige remains. However, it is also possible to put the bags offset one behind the other. Furthermore, it is possible to use a single feed station and to control it so that several bags come layered one above the other in groups.
  • the stacked bags are from the second conveyor 3 taken, with funds are available to them from second conveyor 3 to the piece goods of the first type A. This is done in the example shown here by means of the driver 10.
  • the bags are placed on the second conveyor 3, that they overlap slightly laterally.
  • the drivers 10 run with the first conveyor 1 along the second conveyor 3 and push one group of bags B over each General cargo of the first type A. Preferably, however, the groups become not yet stored directly on the piece goods of the first kind A, but arrive at a slotted dead plate 4, which above of the first conveyor 1 is arranged.
  • the drivers 10 protrude through the slot 40 in the dead plate 4 and push the grouped Bag together with the associated noodle patties in the conveying direction further.
  • the second groups thus formed consisting of the already grouped piece goods of the second type B and one piece goods each first Type A, enter the area of the horizontal tubular bag packaging station 7.
  • This packaging station 7 is Well known in the art and is therefore here not explained in detail.
  • one of a Tape roll 70 delivered film 71 in the conveying direction of the first Conveyor 1 transported, bent to a tube 72, the second groups of general cargo introduced and the hose 72 welded to individual tubular bags and these separated.
  • the driver 10 is now lowered. simultaneously ends the dead plate 4, leaving the layered bag falling on the pasta patties. So that the bags are not shift, according to the invention is a means of applying force available.
  • the agent ensures that the second Groups until full introduction to the hose their Shape, that is their stratification, preserve.
  • This agent can be clearly seen in FIGS. 2 and 3. It consists of a belt conveyor 5 with at least one, here two vertically revolving belts 52 which are on the second groups rest.
  • the belt conveyor has sprung mounted Deflection rollers 50, 51, so that the belt 52 is spring-loaded pushes on the second groups and puts them in theirs Preserved form.
  • the front has in the conveying direction Roller 51 has a much smaller diameter than the rear one Roller 50, so that they are arranged as close to the film 71 can be.
  • a tongue-shaped hold-down 6 is arranged, which also rests on the second groups.
  • it is resilient educated. This hold-down 6 extends into the hose 72 into it and thus allows a leadership of the second groups up they are covered by the hose 72.
  • FIGS. 4 to 6 show a second embodiment of the invention Device shown. Same parts are with are denoted by the same reference numerals and therefore will not be here mentioned again in detail.
  • Each supply station 2 is assigned a second conveyor 3 '.
  • These second conveyors 3 ' are preferably belt conveyors, which revolve a support body 30.
  • the support body 30 formed semicircular.
  • Every second conveyor 3 ' has a contact surface 31, here semicircular, on which directed downwards.
  • On this contact surface 31 are the Piece goods of the second kind B from the feeding station 2 to the dead plate 4 where they in turn are stacked in first groups filed and immediately from the driver 10 of the first conveyor 1 are transported.
  • the type of layering depends on the relative speed of the second conveyor 3 'to the first Conveyor 1 taking into account the distance of the second conveyor 3 'from each other.
  • the contact surface 31 is vacuum-charged and / or it has adhesive properties.
  • Other Variants are also possible as long as the piece goods of the second kind B adhere to the contact surfaces 31.
  • the packaging station 7 can be designed the same as in first embodiment.
  • the same means be used for the application of force.
  • FIGs 4 to 6 another embodiment of this means for applying force shown, which also in the embodiment according to the figures 1 to 3 instead of the belt conveyor 5 and the hold 6 can be used. It is essential that these agents act on the hose 72 from the outside.
  • the Means are preferably formed as elongated brushes 6 ', which extend in the conveying direction and in the introduction area rest on the hose 72.
  • second driver 10 ' present, which in the conveying direction of the first conveyor (1) arranged in front of the second groups are and serve as counterparts for them. This additionally guarantees that the second group when retracting into the hose 72 retains its shape.
  • These second drivers 10 'become as the first driver 10 when inserted into the tube 72nd lowered.
  • the inventive device allows non-stackable To transport piece goods of different kinds together and pack together in a tubular bag.
