Definitions
- the present finding relates to the field of lines for the processing and disposal of waste materials, which arrive packaged preferably in bales.
- waste materials which is one of the preprocessing operation to which the waste materials are subjected before being sent to the actual processing, and which consists in the reduction, by compression, of the material into shapes having different sizes and geometry according to the processing needs, is known.
- bales are particularly useful in processing plants of selected materials (cardboards, newspapers, plastic containers, aluminium cans, wooden crates, etc.); in fact, the bales can be easily moved by simple carts, and allow facilitating the storage operations in warehouses and means of transportation (trucks, trains, etc.).
- the present invention relates to both the method and the device for opening said bales that are packaged, i.e., wrapped with metal wires and sometimes also wrapping material.
- said apparatuses are used for opening the compacted waste material in order to be able to process the contents thereof.
- Apparatuses configured to open bales packaged and/or tied with wrapping material are known. They comprise:
- the drawback of the prior art is that, once the compacted waste packages are opened, the bale wrapping materials cannot be suitably separated.
- devices for opening said packaged bales which comprise gripping means for the wrapping wires that have to be positioned at the single wires. This does not ensure a reliable gripping, since said wires are not always positioned in an even and reproducible manner.
- the document US 43488021 does not provide a system for the compaction thereof in order to optimize their storage.
- the document US 5105527 provides for a complex discharge system by transferring and cutting means of said wires or wrapping material.
- a first object of the present invention is to provide to the art an improved bale opening device, which solves the mentioned drawbacks, in the context of a solution which is simple, functional, and quite cost-effective.
- an implementation form of the present invention provides a device that provides for efficiently separating the wrapping materials, such as for example iron wires or any other similar materials that have not to be mixed with the contents of the bale.
- the present finding provides for positioning the wrapped bale in the structure of the bale opening device; said bale is generally wrapped by one or more wires arranged in contact with the side surface thereof, preferably arranged so that each wire forms a ring; when the bale is in place in the structure, the present finding provides for transversally push it, thus pressing it against an abutment; meanwhile, a blade enters until intercepting the wires or possible plastic wrapping material, where present.
- An intercepting and tensioning means typically a rod, is inserted in the bale and then between the wires, and it is subsequently moved away so as to tight said wires. Then, the blade is actuated, thus cutting the wires; the tensioning means provides for extracting and winding the wires on said blade for the consecutive expulsion of the wire skein. The bale is then released.
- Another aspect of the invention is to provide a device in which there is not a passage of wrapping material from the gripping to the removing means. On the contrary, by a single intercepting means, the wires are intercepted, tensioned, and wound in a skein for the expulsion.
- the cutting system is also simple, since it is built-in in the same compacting means.
- the advantages of the finding can be mainly related to the simplicity of the means implemented and the separation efficiency.
- bale opening device which is the subject matter of the present finding, which is characterized by what is indicated in the claims set forth below.
- bale opening apparatus or device 10 for opening bales 20 packaged with wrapping material 30 such as wires or straps, where each wire 30 is preferably adapted to define a ring about a side surface 21 of the bale 20 is represented.
- a first subject matter of the invention is the method for the opening of said bales 20 and the separation of the wrapping material 30 from the content of the bale 20.
- the bale 20 is packaged and/or tied with at least one or more wires 30 and arranged in a removal structure.
- the process implemented by the present invention to carry out the separation of the wrapping material 30, which by for the sake of simplicity will be referred to as wires 30 herein below, provides for holding the bale 20, and carrying out a series of operations while keeping the bale 20 stationary and hold by the holding means 2.
- said holding means 2 comprise two substantially planar and opposite surfaces, configured to contact two opposite sides of the side surface 21 of the bale 20.
- the process first provides for at least intercepting its one or more wrapping wires 30 and for exerting a force adapted to cause the side tensioning of said one or more wires 30.
- a force adapted to cause the side tensioning of said one or more wires 30.
- the above-mentioned force is in a perpendicular direction to the side surface 21 or side of the bale 20 wrapped by said one or more wires 30.
- the tensioning of the wires 30 is caused by exerting an action of moving away or "detachment" from the bale 20.
- said process provides for causing the tensioning by the interaction with the wires 30 sections on a same side with respect to the side surface of the wrapped bale 20.
- the cutting occurs through means that are already in place, since they are part of the compression and holding means 2.
- the tensioning action is such that, once the wires 30 have been tensioned, they are also blocked to facilitate the subsequent winding, so that the removal action (in this case, by winding) is established in the shortest time possible as soon as the cutting means 4 have cut the wires 30.
- the process providing for acting on the hold bale 20 consists of:
- the bale opening device 10 comprises a resting plane 1 on which the bale 20 is positioned, and holding means 2 configured to hold the bale 20 packaged and/or tied with at least one or more wires 30 annularly wrapped about the side surface 21 of the bale 20.
- said apparatus further comprises intercepting means 3, typically comprising a rod 31, which is configured to intercept and tension said one or more wires 30, and cutting means 4 operating according to the following steps:
- the intercepting means 3 are configured to intercept them from a same side 21a of the side surface 21 of the wrapped bale 20.
- the intercepting means 3 comprise the rod 31, which extends according to a vertical direction Z that is substantially perpendicular to the surface passing through each ring formed by the wires 30.
- the rod 31 is configured to insert within the rings formed by the wires 30, by a translation according to the vertical direction Z.
- said intercepting means 3 are configured to carry out a first translation according to a horizontal direction Y perpendicular to the side 21a of the bale 20, by moving the wires 30 away from the bale 20 and putting them in tension.
- the intercepting means 3 are movable vertically, or in a substantially vertical direction Z, being supported on a frame 32 translating in the vertical direction indicated with Z.
- Said frame 32, hence the intercepting means 3 is also movable according to the horizontal direction Y perpendicular to the side 21a in which the wires 30 are intercepted by the intercepting means 3; according to an aspect of the finding, for example, said translation occurs through rolling means that slide on corresponding tracks and the actuation by at least one pneumatic or hydraulic or electric cylinder.
- the cutting means 4 comprise two blades 41 and 42, at least one blade 41 of which being movable, which, in the case of multiple wires 30 is configured to intercept all the wires on the same side with respect to the wrapped bale 20.
- the movable blade 41 is configured to cut the wires 30 by a translation according to the vertical direction Z.
- Said blade 41 comprises a plurality of teeth 43 that are arranged inclined with respect to the vertical direction Z so as to hold the wires 30 more within the blade during the cutting.
- the two blades 41 and 42 are preferably positioned so that the inclination of the teeth 43 thereof is the opposite, i.e., for example, the movable blade 41 will have its teeth 43 upwardly sloped, while the fixed blade 42 will have its teeth 43 downwardly sloped, or vice versa.
- An embodiment further provides that the cutting means 4 are preferably arranged on the holding means 2.
- the cutting means 4 are positioned opposite to the tensioning means 3, i.e., on the side opposite the intercepting side 21a.
- An aspect of the invention provides that the tensioning means 3 are also arranged at the holding means 2.
- the intercepting means 3 are configured to carry out a second translation in the same tensioning direction Y such as to move them farther away from the bale 20.
- a preferred solution is the one providing for the rotation of the intercepting means 3 during the moving away from the bale 20, so as to extract said one or more wires 30 by wrapping them about the intercepting means 3 themselves.
- An aspect of the finding provides that the intercepting means 3 are able to rotate about a rotational axis arranged according to the vertical direction Z.
- the intercepting means 3 comprise an abutment element 5, which blocks said wires 30 during the rotation.
- a preferred embodiment provides that the abutment element 5 blocks the wires 30 on the rod 31.
- the wires 30 are extracted from the intercepting means 3, by an expulsion element that make them slide along the intercepting means 3 until making them fall in a suitable collecting container.
