Definitions

  • the invention relates to a magazine for a device for strapping packages in which an edge protection agent is applied to protect against damage to the package before the strapping process and the edge protection agent is held by the strap on the package, wherein the edge protection means is plate-like and several edge protection means in are held in the magazine and are removed if necessary from a sampling device.
  • Device for strapping packages usually have a so-called packing table, on which rests a package to be strapped in the device.
  • a guide frame which surrounds the package and within which a strapping means, such as a thermoplastic band, is guided around the package starting from a tensioning and closing device.
  • a strapping means such as a thermoplastic band
  • the free end of the strap is held and the strap is tensioned by a partial withdrawal around the package.
  • the strap is pulled out of the guide frame.
  • the guide frame on its sides facing the package suitable retaining means, such as opening flaps, brush attachments or the like.
  • suitable retaining means such as opening flaps, brush attachments or the like.
  • edge protection is generally flat or plate-like cardboard boxes, which are arranged by a suitable device before the strapping process on the package in the region of the edges to be protected. During strapping, this edge protector applies a corresponding deformation over the edge to be protected and effectively absorbs the forces exerted by the strapping material.
  • the corresponding edge protection means are stored in a magazine, which increases depending on the size of the magazine horizontally to the footprint of the device required space.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a space for the Umreifungsffenvoroplasty substantially not influencing magazine for edge protection.
  • the main advantage of the invention is that the magazine orientation in its longitudinal extent is now a vertical, in contrast to the non-assignable from the printed prior art, with respect to the longitudinal extent horizontal orientation of the magazine.
  • the horizontal space of the device, as well as the vertical space of the device is substantially unaffected, since the edge protection magazine can be arranged within the predetermined by the machine frame and / or by the guide frame horizontal and vertical space.
  • the removal device has a removal tool, which removes the edge protection means the magazine.
  • the removal tool is held on an endlessly circulating conveyor, such as chain or belt, and guided along a movement path.
  • an endlessly circulating conveyor such as chain or belt
  • the essential advantage of this embodiment is its simple control and the speed of revolution which can be adapted within a wide range.
  • Alternating funding, such as lifting cylinders require due to two opposite directions of movement of an increased tax expense and are limited in their working speeds.
  • the magazine comprises a separating device which singulates the reserved edge protection means for removal.
  • the respective edge protection means provided for removal, located in the magazine, rests on a support surface.
  • An especially simple and reliable separating device is characterized in that the separating device is formed by a blocking element, which is arranged with a distance corresponding to at least the height of the edge protection means to the support surface and thus forms a gap between blocking element and support surface.
  • the removal tool pushes the edge protection means resting on the support surface through the gap and that Blockade element restrains the remaining edge protection.
  • an embodiment which is characterized in that the conveying surface is curved about a transverse to the direction of movement of the edge protection means and horizontally to the footprint axis to bring the edge protection means in one of the arrangement on the package corresponding position.
  • the main advantage of this embodiment is the fact that in the arrangement and orientation of the magazine, the subsequent arrangement of the edge protection means on the package need not be taken into account. The edge protection means is spent in the ejection from the magazine in its orientation required on the package alignment.
  • the conveying surface merges by means of the curvature of a respect to the mounting plane substantially horizontal portion in a substantially vertical portion.
  • edge protection means is moved along the curved portion of the conveying surface by gravity, it can be provided that the conveying means is deflected in the region of the transition from the horizontal portion in the curved portion.
  • the deflection radius of the conveying means is smaller than the radius of curvature of the conveying surface.
  • the removal tool has a substantially L-shaped receptacle in which the edge protection means rests during movement along at least part of the conveying surface.
  • the removal tool has an elongated leg in the direction of movement, which is arranged at its front in the direction of movement of the end of the conveyor, the rear end in the direction of movement, however, is free.
  • a guide element such as baffle, which cooperates with the curvature portion to stabilize the edge protection means in one of the arrangement on the package corresponding orientation.
  • the removal tool carries a support leg which rests upon removal of an edge protection means on the magazine in the following edge protection means and prevents premature retraction.
  • the magazine initially comprises a storage space 11 which is bordered by storage box forming side walls 12.
  • edge protection means 13 are kept, which are arranged vertically above one another with respect to a non-descript set-up level of the strapping device.
  • Each edge protection means 13 initially has a contact surface 14 and a contact surface 15 opposite the contact surface.
  • the contact surfaces 14 and counter surfaces 15 are arranged horizontally with respect to the mounting plane.
  • the edge protection means 13 in the storage space 11 are thus contact surface 14 on counter surface 15 - forming a stack - one above the other.
  • the edge protection means 13 are therefore stacked here as superimposed plates in the storage space 11.
  • a support 16 forms below the edge protection means 13 arranged in the stack, a support surface 17, which limits the storage space 11 in the direction of gravity and on which the respectively provided for removal edge protection means 13 rests.
  • removal direction x of the removal tool 18 the support surface 17 is followed by a conveying surface 19, which is also formed by the support 16 and on the the removed edge protection means 13 is moved by the removal tool 18.
  • the magazine 10 further comprises a separating device, which initially comprises a gap 20, which is arranged between the support 16 and the front in the conveying direction x side wall 12 of the storage space 11.
  • a separating device which initially comprises a gap 20, which is arranged between the support 16 and the front in the conveying direction x side wall 12 of the storage space 11.
  • said front side wall 12 has been shortened and, in the embodiment shown here, provided with a hold-down limb 21, which is arranged approximately parallel to the conveying surface 19 in compliance with the gap dimension.
  • the gap width corresponds at least to the material thickness of the respectively provided for removal edge protection means 13 so that it can be pushed by the removal tool 18 in the conveying direction x for removal from the storage space 11 through the gap 20.
  • the front side wall 12 lying in the conveying direction x forms the claimed blockade element by retaining the further edge protection means 13 arranged above the edge protection means 13 for removal when the removal tool 18 moves in the conveying direction x.
  • the removal tool 18 is set in motion-coupled manner on an endlessly circulating conveyor 22, in this case a toothed belt.
  • the conveyor 22 itself is guided below the support 16.
  • a non-illustrated movement gap for the removal tool 18 is formed, along which the removal tool 18 is movable.
  • the removal tool 18 forms an approximately L-shaped receptacle 24, in which the provided for removal edge protection means 13th seated.
  • a first aligned parallel to the main sides of the edge protection means 13 receiving leg engages under the provided for removal edge protection means 13, whereas a second receiving leg 26 abuts a transverse to the main sides narrow side 27 of the edge protection means 13.
  • the main sides of the edge protection means 13 form the abutment surface 14 and the counter surface 15, respectively.
  • the second receiving leg 26 corresponding in its length approximately to the material thickness of the edge protection means 13, that is to say the height of the narrow side 27, has a considerable depth in the conveying direction x.
  • the support surface 28 of the second receiving leg 26, which is arranged parallel to the main sides and directed toward the advancing edge protection means 13 in the storage space 11, slides along the conveying edge x under the advancing edge protection means 13 and prevents premature retraction thereof.
  • the second receiving leg 26 in the embodiment described here also serves as a support leg in the sense of the claim.
  • the lowest intended for removal edge protection means 13 according to FIG. 1 sits in the L-shaped receptacle 24 and is advanced by the removal tool 18 in the conveying direction x, as in FIG. 2 shown. It slides on the conveying surface 19, which has a curved portion 29.
  • This curved section 29 transfers the conveying surface 19 oriented substantially horizontally to the mounting plane of the strapping device into a substantially vertically aligned section adjoining the curvature.
  • the curvature has a first radius.
  • the curvature section begins approximately in the region of the forward deflection of the conveyor 22 arranged in the conveying direction x.
  • the conveying means 22 is deflected in a second radius, which is preferably, and executed here in accordance with, smaller than the first radius of the curved portion 29 of the conveying surface 19.
  • Wie aus FIG. 3 it can be seen, the removal tool 18 is a rigid body, the first receiving leg 25 is attached to the conveyor 22, whereas the second receiving leg 26 is lifted from the conveyor 22. This ensures in the rigid formation of the removal tool 18 initially the possibility of deflection, but as a result leads to an accelerated circulation of the second receiving leg 26 in the deflection of the conveyor 22 relative to the first receiving leg 25. This acceleration is transmitted to the subsidized edge protection means 13 and leads to an accelerated forward movement of the edge protection means 13 along the curved portion 29. In that regard, one can speak of an ejection of the edge protection means 13 from the removal tool 18.
  • the acceleration of the edge protection means 13 is to ensure that it slides along the curved portion 29 of the conveying surface 19.
  • the orientation of the edge protection means 13 with respect to the position in the storage space 11 is changed.
  • the vertical position reached after sliding along the curvature section 29 in the present embodiment corresponds to the alignment required for the arrangement on the package.
  • Other orientations of the Edge protection means 13 can also be achieved by a correspondingly changed course of curvature.
  • the edge protection means 13 does not necessarily slide in the direction of gravity on the curved portion 29, even if this is certain to be advantageous.
  • the curvature section 29 cooperates with a guide plate 30 which intercepts the narrow side 27 of the edge protection means 13 lying in the conveying direction x and supports the support in the desired end position.
  • the main advantage of the curved conveying surface 19 is to be seen in the fact that it forms a deflection device for the edge protection means 13 in interaction with the removal tool 18 and the guide plate 30 in particular.
  • this simpler physical conditions in particular the acceleration by the second receiving leg 26 and the gravity used to accomplish the deflection of the edge protection means 13 in a simple manner.
  • the main advantage of this simple design diverter is the fact that the orientation of the storage space 11 of the magazine 10 and the orientation of the edge protection means 13 stored therein is independent of the orientation of the edge protection means 13 for the arrangement on the package. This makes it easier to arrange the storage space according to the object according to the invention without affecting the construction space on the strapping device.
