Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sealing system for packaging machine tools with integrated lifting rod according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a hitherto known sealing system for packaging machine tools with integrated lifting rod has a first and a second mold half, which are movable relative to each other; the lift rod itself, which penetrates the first tool half in an axial direction and is movable in the axial direction; and a gasket sealing a gap between the first mold half and the lift rod.
  • the seal has been designed as a vertical seal or as an axial seal.
  • the vertical seal lacks a sufficient counterforce, so that the seal is insufficient in some cases.
  • the axial seal is in danger of tilting the lifting rod. It would be conceivable to provide a special seal, but this would be associated with high costs and high costs.
  • the solution according to the invention is preferably a simple but effective seal in the form of a silicone ring.
  • the tolerances of the components in contact with the seal can be made larger. Due to the high axial closing forces between the clamping plate and the first mold half can thus act on the lifting rod high axial forces of the seal and ensure the seal for high negative pressures of up to 1 mbar in the chamber.
  • a contact surface between the seal and the lifting rod can be increased, whereby the sealing effect is also enhanced.
  • the lifting rod has a sealing bolt, which advantageously comes into contact with the seal only at the moment of the required sealing. If the seal is not compressed, no friction occurs between the lift rod and the seal, so that then the support plates can slide by their (low) weight to the bottom. For solutions with Simmerringen own holding or pulling device down would be necessary.
  • the sealing bolt is realized directly under the support plate, which is lifted by the narrower, remaining lifting rod.
  • the sealing bolt is detachably connected to the remaining lifting rod and can be separated from the support plate for easier assembly when changing tools.
  • Embodiments of a sealing system according to the invention will be described for a tray sealing machine with reference to the figures, whereby the sealing system can of course also be applied in other packaging machines such as in a thermoforming machine.
  • the Fig. 1 10 shows the tray sealing machine with a feed belt 20, one or more work stations 21 such as an evacuating, sealing and cutting station, a discharge belt 22, a machine frame 23, a film tensioning device 24, an operating device 25, a film feed roller 26 and a film remover 27.
  • work stations 21 such as an evacuating, sealing and cutting station
  • discharge belt 22 a discharge belt 22
  • machine frame 23 a film tensioning device 24
  • operating device 25 a film feed roller 26 and a film remover 27.
  • packaging trays P On the feed belt 20 and the discharge belt 22 are packaging trays P (see Fig. 2 ) transported into the workstation 21 in and out of her.
  • An upper film is fed to the work station 21 through the film feed roller 26 and is tensioned by the film tensioning device 24.
  • the packaging tray P In the workstation 21, the packaging tray P is sealed with the top film.
  • the interior of the packaging can be additionally evacuated and fumigated.
  • the top film can also be cut in the workstation 21.
  • the resulting film residue is wound on the Folienrestaufwickler 27 behind the workstation 21.
  • the following is based on the FIGS. 2 to 5 a sealing station 21 as an example of a workstation 21 of the tray sealing machine of the Fig. 1 described.
  • the sealing station 21 has a sealing system according to a first embodiment.
  • the sealing system consists of a first mold half 1 and a second mold half 2, which are movable relative to each other.
  • the first mold half 1 is a sealed lower part
  • the second mold half 2 is a seal upper part.
  • the sealing system is also formed by an integrated lifting rod 3, which penetrates the first tool half 1 in the axial direction and is movable in the axial direction.
  • the lifting rod 3 carries a support plate 8 for packing trays P.
  • a seal 4 is provided, which seals a gap 5 between the first mold half 1 and the lifting rod 3.
  • the seal 4 has the form of a cylindrical ring with a rectangular profile cross section in the embodiments.
  • the material of the seal 4 is made of silicone. Due to the shape of the cylindrical ring, the seal 4 has an inner diameter, which in the open position of the sealing station 21 according to the Fig. 2 larger than an outer diameter of the lifting rod 3. Thus, the gap 5 is clearly present between the lifting rod 3 and the seal 4.
  • the present invention further provides an apparatus that compresses the gasket 4 in the axial direction so that the gasket 4 expands perpendicular to the axial direction and seals the gap 5.
  • this device is realized by a clamping plate 6 which is movable in the axial direction relative to the first mold half 1.
  • the clamping plate 6 is in particular in a recess 10 of the first mold half 1 slidably guided and centered, wherein the contour of the recess 10 is adapted to the circumference of the clamping plate 6.
  • the seal 4 is arranged between the clamping plate 6 and a lower, extending perpendicular to the axial direction surface 7 of the first mold half 1.
  • the clamping plate 6 has per seal 4, a cylindrical recess 11 in which the corresponding seal 4 is received, for example, with a clearance fit or transition fit.
  • the axial length of the seal 4 is greater than the depth of the cylindrical recess 11 in the clamping plate 6. As a result, the seal 4 protrudes beyond the upper side of the clamping plate 6.
  • the first tool half 1 rests on its lower surface 7 by its own weight on an upper surface of the seal 4.
  • the lower side of the clamping plate 6 is connected to a lifting device 9, which raises the clamping plate 6 together with the first mold half 1.
  • a lifting device 9 which raises the clamping plate 6 together with the first mold half 1.
  • the gasket 4 is compressed (more precisely, the gasket 4 is compressed more compressed, since the gasket 4 through the weight of the first mold half 1 is already precompressed to some extent).
  • the material of the seal 4 flows in a radical direction, and the seal 4 is radially expanded.
  • the Fig. 2 shows a schematic sectional view of the sealing station 21 in the open position with the sealing system according to the first embodiment.
  • the lifting device 9 has moved the first tool half 1 together with the clamping plate 6 upwards.
  • the integrated lifting rods 3 are moved down.
  • the Fig. 3 shows a schematic sectional view of the sealing station 21 in the half-open position with the sealing system according to the first embodiment.
  • the lifting device 9 has moved the clamping plate 6 together with the first mold half 1 upwards and taken along the packing shells P, in particular on flanges 32 formed there. As a result, the packing trays P are separated from the backup plates 8.
  • the lifting rods 3 can also move down.
  • the Fig. 4 shows a schematic sectional view of the sealing station 21 in the closed, but not sealed position with the sealing system according to the first embodiment.
  • the lifting device 9 has been moved so far up that the first mold half 1 begins to press against the second mold half 2.
  • the shape of the seal 4 has not changed here.
  • the Fig. 5 shows a schematic sectional view of the sealing station 21 in the closed and sealed position with the Sealing system according to the first embodiment.
  • the lifting device 9 has pressed the clamping plate 6 with the first mold half 1 stronger upward.
  • the clamping plate 6 was moved relative to the first mold half 1 and the seal 4 was compressed even more axially between the clamping plate 6 and the first mold half 1.
  • Due to the elasticity of the seal 4 the material of the seal 4 flows radially into the remaining space between the inner periphery of the seal 4 and the lifting rod 3, so that the seal 4 is radially expanded.
  • the gap 5 between the seal 4 and the lifting rod 3 is closed and sealed.
  • the lifting device 9 presses the clamping plate 6 so high that the clamping plate 6, the lower surface 7 of the first mold half 1 touches. In this way, a stop is provided which adjusts the maximum compression of the seal 4 to a desired level.
  • FIGS. 6 to 8 show a sealing station 21 according to a second embodiment. Similar or identical components to the first embodiment have the same reference numerals and will not be described again.
  • the structure of the sealing system corresponds to the first embodiment with the following exception:
  • the lifting rod 3a, 3b in the second embodiment has a sealing bolt 3a, which has a cylindrical shape with a diameter which is larger than a diameter of the remaining lifting rod 3b.
  • the sealing bolt 3a has the task of cooperating with the seal 4 to seal the gap 5.
  • the seal 4 is then compressed by the clamping plate 6, when the sealing bolt 3a of the seal 4 is opposite.
  • the sealing bolt 3a is firmly connected to the support plate 8, and he has an axial bore 3e, in which the remaining lifting rod 3b is releasably inserted.
  • the remaining lifting rod 3b in the second embodiment has in particular a pin 3g, which is releasably inserted into the axial bore 3e of the sealing bolt 3a, as shown in the Fig. 7 is clearly visible.
  • the Fig. 6 shows a schematic sectional view of the sealing station 21 in the open position with the sealing system according to the second embodiment.
  • the lifting device 9 has moved the first tool half 1 together with the clamping plate 6 upwards.
  • the integrated lifting rods 3a, 3b are moved downwards, wherein the pin 3g of the remaining lifting rod 3b with the axial bore 3e of the sealing bolt 3a is engaged.
  • the lower surface 7 of the first mold half 1 rests on the upper surface of the seal 4, so that the seal 4 is precompressed only by the weight of the first mold half 1.
  • the gap 5 is formed.
  • the Fig. 7 shows a schematic sectional view of the sealing station 21 in the half-open position with the sealing system according to the second embodiment.
  • the lifting device 9 has moved the clamping plate 6 together with the first mold half 1 upwards and taken along the packing shells P in particular to the flanges 32 formed there. As a result, the packing trays P were separated from the backup plates 8, now inside the first mold half 1 rest.
  • a special feature of the second embodiment is that the sealing bolt 3a separates from the remaining lifting rod 3b as soon as the support plates 8 rest inside the first tool half 1.
  • the lifting rods 3 can also move downwards as in the first embodiment.
  • the Fig. 8 shows a schematic sectional view of the sealing station 21 in the closed and sealing position with the sealing system according to the second embodiment.
  • the lifting device 9 has pressed the clamping plate 6 with the first mold half 1 maximum upwards, so that the first mold half 1 presses against the second mold half 2.
  • the clamping plate 6 was moved relative to the first mold half 1 and the seal 4 was compressed even more axially between the clamping plate 6 and the first mold half 1. Due to the elasticity of the seal 4, the material of the seal 4 flows radially into the remaining space between the inner periphery of the seal 4 and the lifting rod 3, more precisely between the inner periphery of the seal 4 and the sealing bolt 3a.
  • the gap 5 between the gasket 4 and the sealing bolt 3a is closed and sealed.
  • the lifting device 9 presses the clamping plate 6 so much upward that the clamping plate 6, the lower surface 7 of the first mold half 1 touches. In this way, a stop is provided which adjusts the maximum compression of the seal 4 to a desired level.
  • Fig. 8 is also shown that the remaining lifting rod 3b has been moved back up, so that the pin 3g of the remaining lifting rod 3b in the axial bore 3e of the sealing bolt 3a is inserted. This serves to prepare for opening the mold halves 1, 2, when the support plate 8, the sealed packing shells P should wear again.
  • FIGS. 9 to 11 show a sealing station 21 according to a third embodiment. Similar or identical components to the first embodiment have the same reference numerals and will not be described again.
  • the structure of the sealing system corresponds to the second embodiment with the following exception that the sealing bolt 3c is not firmly connected to the support plate 8, but with the remaining lifting rod 3d.
  • the sealing bolt 3 c has an axial bore 3 f, in which a pin 8 a of the support plate 8 is releasably inserted, as shown in particular in Fig. 10 is recognizable.
  • FIGS. 9 to 11 Analogous to the FIGS. 6 to 8 of the second embodiment show the FIGS. 9 to 11 the operation of the third embodiment.
  • the Fig. 9 shows a schematic sectional view of the sealing station 21 in the open position with the sealing system according to the third embodiment;
