Definitions

  • the accompanying drawings show a preferred embodiment 10 of the packaging apparatus according to the invention, in particular for packaging a food product.
  • the apparatus according to the invention packages the product in a wrapper made from a film, in particular a plastic film or a film in the form of aluminium foil.
  • the wrapping film used is made from a foldable material, that is to say, a material that keeps the folded shape imparted to it.
  • the wrapper comprises a sheet obtained from the film cut into a suitable shape and folded in such a way as to enclose the product.
  • the package also comprises means, in the form of at least one plastic tape, for tearing and opening the wrapper and a label if necessary. It will be understood, however, that the apparatus according to the invention might also make packages without tearing and opening means and/or without labels.
  • the apparatus according to the invention comprises means 14 for feeding the parts used to make the wrapper.
  • the means 14 for feeding the wrapper parts move with alternating motion, moving forward and stopping at the operating stations where the wrapper parts are assembled.
  • These straight rails 182a, 182b, 182c, 182d extend in divergent directions starting from the position where the sheet is picked up to the position where the sheet is delivered to the respective site on the feed means 14. As illustrated, the ends of the longitudinal guide rails 182a, 182b, 182c, 182d are mounted on respective crossbars 182e, 182f.
  • the sealing means 20 move downwards to join the heat-sealable face of the sheet 4 to the tear tapes 2 and 3 and up again to a position where the feed means can turn freely.
  • the label placing means 22 comprise means 121 which pick up the label 5 from the accommodating means 122 and transfer it to the feed means 14, and which are in the form of corresponding revolving means that turn in the same direction as the wrapper part feed means 14.
  • the creases 6, shown in Figure 3 are made in the sheet 4 in order to facilitate its subsequent folding into a shape suitable for receiving the product.
  • the wrapper creasing means operating at 24, are located on the side of the feed means 14 opposite the side where the sheet placing means 18 are located.
  • the level at which the film feed means 30 extend above the supporting surface of the apparatus 10 is lower than the level occupied by the means 14 that feed the wrapper parts.
  • the wrapper shaping means comprise forming means 40 and means 42 for pushing the wrapper into the forming means 40.
  • the shaping means 40 are mounted on respective mounting means which extend transversally in cantilever fashion from the partition means 120.
  • means 44 are provided for feeding the cup-shaped wrappers lengthways.
  • the means for mounting the cap application means 52 have a fixed part, not illustrated in Figure 2 , and a mobile part, labelled 152, which extends transversally of the apparatus and is pivotally mounted in such a way that it can swing on the fixed part at the partition wall 120.
  • respective means may be provided for grouping the packages.
