Definitions

  • the invention concerns an apparatus and the associated method and system for fixing, without welding, the tail end of wrappings of palletized loads, formed using stretch film and/or other elastic and/or plastic material and using any wrapping machine of the known type.
  • the invention intends to overcome this and other limitations of the known art, using the following new method.
  • the tail end of the wrapping film, gathered in a bundle, is gripped in synchronism by a gripper designed to be able to perforate subsequently, by itself or with the aid of suitable means, a middle part of the said pocket formed in the wrapping film and, after this gripper has entered with the tail end inside the pocket, it opens so as to release the said tail end and then exits from the pocket through the entry hole, leaving the tail end inside it.
  • the forward and return movements of this novel gripper are decidedly shorter and therefore faster than those of grippers of the known type which introduce the tail end via the top opening or bottom opening of the pocket.
  • the new method moreover offers the advantage that the tail end of the film is immediately retained with friction by the hole formed in the pocket of film into which it was introduced, this condition not being able to be achieved using the known methods, unless specific means such as pressers, air jets or the like are provided.
  • introduction of the tail end into the pocket is performed along a section of the said pocket which is then acted on by the opposition means during the movement when it is retracted and comes out of the said pocket, so that said means interferes with the tail end of the film in such a way as to smooth it and/or position it correctly inside the pocket during the closing step.
  • PS denotes a possible simplified embodiment of the secondary gripper useful for implementing the method in question, which comprises a rod-shaped body 1, for example with a round cross-section or other suitable cross-section, having a smooth surface, which has pivotably mounted on its end, on one or on respective parallel pivots 2, 2', pointed jaws 3, 3' which, when they are closed as shown in continuous lines, resemble substantially an ogive with a pointed form.
  • the gripper PS in Figure 1 is intended to perforate itself the pocket of the wrapping film so as to introduce therein the tail end of the said wrapping.
  • the gripper comprises internal means for the self-centring opening or closing movement of the said jaws 3, 3', as illustrated in broken lines.
  • These movement means may, for example, comprise pinions and a rack actuated in a reciprocating manner by a fluid pressure cylinder, said means having been used for some time for actuating mechanized grippers and for this reason not being shown in the drawings in that they may be easily realized by persons skilled in the art.
  • Figure 2 shows another possible embodiment of the secondary gripper PS which may be used in place of that shown in Figure 1.
  • This solution comprises a gripper substantially similar to that shown in Figure 1, but with jaws which may also not be pointed, and movable axially inside a hollow body 4, the front end 104 of which has, for example, the form of a single or double flute tip, hence with a single oblique surface as illustrated in the drawings or with two oblique and opposite surfaces and therefore provided at its end with one or two lateral openings.
  • the gripper PS is outside the body 4, its jaws are initially open as shown in broken lines and are then closed and the said gripper is then retracted into the laterally open part of the body 4, as illustrated in continuous lines, so as to leave the pointed end 104 of the said body 4 free and visible.
  • the apparatus comprises the following means which are now described with reference to Figures 3 and 3a and which are for example of the type already used in the apparatus described in European patent EP 1 037 801 B1 and in European patent application No. 03 027074.8 both in the name of the present Applicants, to which documents detailed reference will be made.
  • C denotes the palletized load which is enveloped by the wrapping of stretch film A and on the side of which an opposition rod 5 at the end of the cycle is raised from the rest position shown in broken lines into the active position shown in continuous lines, said opposition rod causing the movement, away from the load, of at least one of the last turns of the wrapping film, so as to form a pocket S between this turn and the load.
  • at least the turn or turns of film which form the pocket S are formed by film, the height of which has been suitably reduced and for this reason is tensioned and has a greater mechanical strength.
  • the bundling together of the last section of the wrapping film may be performed by means other than the jaws of the secondary gripper, for example by a pair of parallel forks made of round metal bar and mounted on a body which is designed to be longitudinally slidable on the body 1, 4 of the said secondary gripper, so that these forks may be arranged adjacent to the jaws of the gripper during bundling together of the tail end and gripping and so that they may be subsequently moved away so as to free the tip of the secondary gripper for the subsequent working steps.
  • the secondary gripper PS by means of combined movements, is introduced together with the tail end X into a middle section of one of the two walls of the pocket S, preferably at a point on the pocket which is sufficiently close to the opposition means 5 and hence sufficiently deep, to avoid any interference with the load C, following which the said secondary gripper PS is opened and is extracted from the pocket, while the tail end X remains inside the said pocket owing to contact with the film which forms the pocket and the contact with the edge of the hole F formed in the said pocket by the secondary gripper which in synchronism closes so as to prevent the jaws interfering with the film of the pocket (Fig. 5).
  • the insertion of the tail end into the pocket S is performed by means of perforation of that wall of the said pocket which is subsequently acted on by the opposition means 5 when the latter is retracted for example by means of pivoting downwards, as shown in Figure 5, so that this opposition means performs a kind of smoothing action on the tail end so as to arrange it correctly and retain it inside the pocket which in synchronism closes and grips inside it the said tail end of the completed wrapping.
  • the secondary gripper PS returns into the rest position, the wrapped load is moved away from the wrapping station and the machine is ready to repeat a new working cycle.
