Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for providing cushioning material for packaging purposes according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a device for providing cushioning material for packaging purposes according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a device is from the US 2012/072016 A1 famous.
  • a cushioning reshaping device is known with which a cushioning material can be produced from air-filled bags ("air bags") from a sheet-like starting material.
  • air bags air-filled bags
  • the output device simply consists of an opening into which the user grips with his hands in order to remove the air bag. He can separate the required amount of air bags from the rest using prefabricated perforations.
  • US 2010/0127112 A1 discloses an apparatus for dispensing a deformable sheet material.
  • the US 2012/0053040 A1 describes a delivery system for a cushioning material.
  • the US 2015/0060510 A1 discloses the conveyance of discrete pads by two conveyors in the form of paddle wheels.
  • the U.S. 5,906,569 describes a device for providing cushioning material with two cooperating rollers, one of which can be pivoted away from the other.
  • the US 2012/0072016 A1 shows the conveyance of air-filled cushioned bags by means of a paddle wheel.
  • the present invention has the object of creating a device of the type mentioned at the beginning which works particularly efficiently.
  • a device for providing cushioning material for packaging purposes with a container for storing the cushioning material and a dispensing device for dispensing the cushioning material from the container.
  • the output device comprises a driven conveying means in the form of a paddle wheel for conveying the cushioning material along a conveying path.
  • the conveyor is held on a movable base which can be moved from an operating position to a release position and back. In the release position, the conveying means is moved out of the conveying path.
  • the device comprises a guide plate which is stationary with respect to the container and belongs to the dispensing device, which runs straight down in an upper area and essentially concentrically encloses a quarter circumference of the paddle wheel in a lower area, the conveying path between the guide plate and a shaft of the impeller is formed.
  • the cushioning material no longer has to be taken out of the container by hand, but is made available to the user by the output device with the driven conveyor means. This saves the user time, so that his productivity is improved as a whole. In addition, the user saves energy and he has to move less so that the activity is less strenuous.
  • the device can be put into operation very easily and quickly. This enables the user to reach into the conveying path cleared by the conveying means with his hand and pull out a cushioning material stored in the container as an endless material, for example. If the base with the conveyor is then moved back into the operating position, the conveying of the cushioning material, which is now in the conveying path, can be started immediately.
  • a paddle wheel By using a paddle wheel, it is also possible without any problems to convey such a cushioning material, which consists of comparatively discrete pads, for example of air bags that are connected to one another and can be separated from one another.
  • a stationary guide plate which limits the conveying path, ensures reliable conveyance without the need for a complex counterpart, for example a roller or the like.
  • the fact that the guide plate encloses a quarter of the circumference of the paddle wheel ensures reliable conveyance of the cushioning material.
  • the conveying means is designed in such a way that a predetermined amount of cushioning material is dispensed. This will the work of the user is considerably simplified and accelerated, since he no longer has to estimate the amount of cushioning material that he should remove.
  • the conveying means in the form of the driven paddle wheel comprises a plurality of radially protruding paddle sections, the space between two adjacent paddle sections being dimensioned such that a defined amount of cushioning material can be accommodated in it.
  • a rotation of the paddle wheel enables the cushioning cushions which form the cushioning material, in particular, to be conveyed in the direction of rotation, even if they are still connected as a strand. This is a simple way of adjusting the amount of cushioning material dispensed, especially in the case of such a cushioning material which is formed by individual cushioning cushions.
  • the cushioning cushions and the spaces between adjacent vane sections are advantageously dimensioned in such a way that a cushioning cushion fits into a space between two adjacent vane sections.
  • the cushioning material is then conveyed downwards, for example by the force of gravity. There the padding material can then be removed by the user after the paddle wheel has come to a standstill.
  • the base can be moved translationally and / or rotationally from the operating position into the release position and back.
  • a translational movement is then, for example conceivable if the base is designed in the manner of a drawer. This can be easily achieved by means of a linear bearing, for example a simple sliding guide.
  • a rotary movement can be implemented, for example, in the form of a pivoting about an axis of rotation, by means of which the base is pivoted out of the conveying path together with the conveying means. This is also possible in a simple and inexpensive manner.
  • a detection device which detects a movement past of a shovel section
  • a control device which controls a drive of the conveying means as a function of the signal from the detection device.
  • An inductive sensor for example, which emits a pulse-like signal when a shovel section moves past, can be used as the detection device.
  • This detection device makes it possible to count the number of the paddle sections moving past the detection device during a rotation of the paddle wheel and in this way to determine the amount of cushioning material conveyed and thus dispensed.
  • the control device it is then possible, for example, to stop the rotation of the paddle wheel after a predetermined number freely selectable by the user has been reached and thus to dispense a desired amount of cushioning material, for example a desired number of cushioning cushions.
  • the device further comprises: a detection device, which detects at least one request for the delivery of a preferably predetermined amount of cushioning material, and a control device, which controls a drive of the conveyor depending on the signal of the detection device.

Via the touchscreen or the screen with buttons or a keyboard, the user can, for example, enter the desired amount of cushioning material and / or initiate the output of the cushioning material.
  • the detection device can also be a system interface to a higher-level system, for example to a warehouse management system (WMS), which specifies the amount of cushioning material to be dispensed on the basis of an empty space present in a packaging container, or to a barcode scanner or a Measuring system that directly records the empty space in a packaging container.
  • WMS warehouse management system
  • the device comprises a cushioning reshaping device which reshapes a sheet-like starting material into the cushioning material and releases the cushioning material into the container.
  • the cushioning material is therefore produced directly in the container, as a result of which the device can be operated without interruption for a comparatively long period of time.
  • the invention also includes the fact that the device further comprises: a detection device which detects a degree of filling of the container with cushioning material, and a control device which controls the cushioning conversion device as a function of the signal from the detection device. This means that new cushioning material is automatically produced and dispensed into the container when the degree of the container falls below a predetermined limit value. This avoids overfilling the container with cushioning material.
  • the device according to the invention is particularly advantageous when the cushioning material comprises air bags that are connected to one another and can be separated from one another.
