Definitions

  • beverage containers for example the combination of articles or containers into portable, relatively handy packaging units.
  • various possibilities are known for combining individual articles into larger containers.
  • beverage containers are usually combined and packaged using shrink films to form bundles of four, six or more containers.
  • the production of containers is usually unavoidable, as they represent the most common variant of sales units for beverage containers or bottles made of PET plastic.
  • a variant in which the use of shrink film can generally be dispensed with is the so-called strapped bundle.
  • the containers are combined into a bundle and connected to one another by means of so-called straps.
  • straps In continuously or intermittently working strapping machines, containers, articles or bottles are grouped into formations and then strapped with one or more straps using strapping units.
  • Typical formations can be, for example, 1x2 arrangements (two containers in a row), 2x2 arrangements (four containers in a square or in a diamond formation), 3x2, 4x3 or, in principle, also variable nxm arrangements.
  • top grip carton packaging is known, for example to combine several bottles via their neck areas.
  • a packaging machine for placing such top grip carton packages is disclosed in the patent EP 1075419 B1 described.
  • the articles are arranged in a box and the grip box packaging is placed from above onto the at least one article arranged in the box.
  • a plurality of articles are arranged in the crate and by placing a smaller number of upper grip carton packages, subgroups are formed which each combine a part of the articles arranged in the crate.
  • the object of the invention is to ensure the quality and correct formation of bundles produced within a packaging device for subsequent processing and/or sale.
  • the articles to which a packaging blank is applied by means of the packaging device are preferably beverage containers, in particular bottles or cans.
  • the packaging device is also suitable for arranging a corresponding packaging blank on other suitable items and fixing them to them.
  • the article groups, each comprising at least two articles are fed to a first handling device via a first feeding transport device.
  • the first handling device is in particular what is known as an application module, which is designed to fix at least one packaging blank to the article or the group of articles, thereby forming a bundle.
  • a packaging blank is preferably placed on the article group and subjected to an at least partially downward force, in particular a downward force directed pressure, at least partially pressed onto the articles of the article group and thereby fixed to them.
  • Such a packaging blank is, for example, essentially flat and has openings that are designed in such a way that they are pushed onto the articles from above, so that after the packaging blank has been attached to the group of articles, the articles are located in regions above and in regions below the packaging blank .
  • a defined upper area of the articles in the article group is located above the packaging blank, while a defined lower area of the articles in the article group is arranged below the packaging blank.
  • the openings of the packaging blank have fixing devices, for example fixing tabs are formed by incisions or the like extending radially from the openings.
  • fixing tabs are formed by incisions or the like extending radially from the openings.
  • the packaging device comprises at least one first inspection device.
  • the at least one first inspection device is used to record the correct formation of the pack.
  • the first inspection device is designed to detect incorrect attachment of the packaging blank to the articles.
  • the first inspection device can be designed to detect a missing, faulty or defective packaging blank.
  • the first inspection device can alternatively or additionally be designed to detect a faulty or defective article.
  • the inspection device is formed, for example, by a camera with image recognition.
  • the images of the respective container captured by the camera are analyzed by appropriate software, for example, to determine whether a packaging blank is attached to the articles in the article group and/or whether the packaging blank attached to the articles in the article group is in order and, in particular, has no cracks, kinks or the like.
  • the packaging blank is arranged correctly on the articles, that is to say whether, for example, the upper portion of the article was pressed through the packaging blank in the desired manner by the first handling device.
  • the correct filling status of the articles can also be checked.
  • Other suitable inspection devices are known to the person skilled in the art and are also intended to be covered by the present application.
  • a container is identified as defective due to at least one of the defects mentioned above or other defects that are obvious to the person skilled in the art, then this defective container is removed from the container flow. In particular, this prevents faulty containers from being sent on for further processing.
  • the inspection device is preferably assigned a removal device for defective containers, in particular for defective article groups with or without a packaging blank.
  • the data determined by the inspection device are preferably transmitted to a control device of the handling device and/or the packaging device, which controls the removal device when a defective container is detected.
  • the container identified as defective is removed from the product flow by the removal device and, for example, transferred to a buffer area assigned to the handling device.
  • the defective container is finally removed from the product flow and is then sent to destruction, for example.
  • a defective packaging blank is removed from the defective container and a new packaging blank is attached to the article group, forming a new, corrected container will.
  • the newly formed container can then be reintegrated into the product flow and sent on for further processing.
  • a removal tool is assigned to the buffer area, with which the defective packaging blank is removed from the defective container, so that the article group is now again formed and/or arranged in the buffer area.
  • a new packaging blank can then be applied to the group of articles arranged in the buffer area, for example by means of a second handling device assigned to the buffer area or by appropriate activation of the first handling device, whereby a new, in particular a so-called corrected pack is formed.
  • the group of articles is fed into the article feed before the first handling device and a packaging blank is thus again applied to the group of articles by the first handling device.
  • the corrected container is also subjected to an inspection before it is sent for further processing. This is intended to prevent containers that are defective when a new packaging blank is applied from being processed later.
  • at least one second inspection device is assigned to the buffer area, which monitors the arrangement and/or formation of the packaging blank on the article group. If an incorrect arrangement of the packaging blank or another defect in the packaging blank is found, it can be removed from the article group again using the removal tool and replaced with another new packaging blank.
  • the corrected container is introduced into the product flow before the at least one first inspection device, viewed in the direction of transport, so that the corresponding monitoring is carried out by the at least one first inspection device. This is possible in particular if the containers produced are fed to the inspection at a distance from one another.
  • the packaging device comprises a strapping device.
  • the strapping device serves in particular to attach at least one band-like or strip-like, closed strapping to additionally hold the articles in the group of articles together.
  • at least one strapping band is placed around the article and then fixed to form the strapping.
  • An inside of the strapping that rests against the outside of the article can optionally be firmly fixed at a contact point with one of the articles.
  • the strapping can be fixed at the contact point in particular by means of a materially bonded connection in the form of at least one welded connection.
  • a connection means that the articles in the container created in this way can no longer be moved, so that a defined packaging arrangement is maintained.
  • the strapping device can be located either before or after the first handling device. That is, according to one embodiment, the articles of an article group are first combined by means of at least one strap and then the packaging blank is fixed to the strapped group of articles. Alternatively, the packaging blank can first be fixed to the article group and then additional strapping can be attached.
  • At least one second inspection device can be provided downstream of the strapping device, which detects the formation and quality of the at least one strapping. For example, the position of the strapping on the articles can be recorded. Furthermore, it can be detected whether the strapping has sufficient tension and/or whether the strapping band is closed in the correct manner. If defects are detected, in this case, too, provision is made for ejecting the container identified as defective from the product flow.
  • the first inspection device which monitors the presence, arrangement and quality of the packaging blank on the articles, is additionally designed and suitable for detecting defects in the strapping.
  • the first inspection device is arranged at a position behind the first handling device and the strapping device, so that an inspection takes place regardless of which packaging means is first applied to the articles.
  • the articles are additionally fixed to one another by means of an adhesive connection and then the packaging blank is attached.
  • This has the advantage that the position of the articles is fixed in a defined manner relative to one another before and/or when the packaging blank is applied, and in particular the articles cannot shift relative to one another.
  • adhesive points are placed at suitable contact points between two articles.
  • the splices can preferably already be attached when the articles are assembled into article groups.
  • a further alternative embodiment can provide that several articles are arranged on a so-called tray and then all articles arranged on a tray are additionally equipped with a packaging blank as described above. In these embodiments, too, it is possible first to attach the packaging blank to the articles and only in a subsequent step to place the adhesive points or to arrange the articles on an additional tray.
  • the quality and arrangement of the splices can also be monitored by a suitable second inspection device which, for example, records the position of the splices and/or the size of the splices and/or the thickness of the adhesive layer, etc. If, for example, the size of the adhesive points and/or the thickness of the adhesive points is/are below a defined minimum value, then it can be assumed that the adhesive bond between the articles is insufficient. Such containers are classified as defective and removed from the product flow before further processing. As described in connection with the strapping device, the first inspection device can also fulfill this task with a suitable arrangement.
  • a carrying handle is attached to the group of articles equipped with the packaging blank, which is also referred to as a bundle.
  • this is a strip-shaped carrying handle that is glued to the respective articles on opposite outer sides of the container.
  • the carrying handle is applied, for example, with a handle applicator arranged downstream of the handling device.
  • the schematic view of 1 shows a first embodiment of a packaging device 1 for applying a packaging blank 2 to an article group 3, which in the present example is formed from three bottles 4 arranged in two parallel rows, ie a total of six bottles 4. Due to the side view, only one of the two rows is visible.
  • the article group 3 can alternatively comprise a plurality of cans or other (beverage) containers.
  • the bottles 4 are put together in a grouping module 6 in the desired number to form the article groups 3 and fed in the transport direction TR to the handling device 9 via a suitable first transport device 7, for example a first endless conveyor belt 8, a mat chain conveyor, a roller or roller chain or similar .
  • the handling device 9 is in particular an application module 10 in which a suitable cardboard blank 20 is pressed onto the bottles 4 of the article group 3 with an at least partially downward force.
  • the packaging blank 2 is preferably an essentially flat cardboard blank 20 which has a number of through-openings 21 .
  • the number of through-openings 21 corresponds to the number of bottles 4 within the group of articles 3 and the arrangement of the through-openings 21 corresponds to the arrangement of the bottles 4 within the group of articles 3.
  • the through-openings 21 are designed in such a way that the packaging blank 2 can be pushed onto the bottles 4 from above applied, in particular pressed, can be.
  • the bottles 4 combined with a packaging blank 2 are also referred to below as packs 5 .

  • the first inspection device 11 can detect the absence of a packaging blank 2 or a faulty packaging blank 2, for example a kinked, torn or otherwise damaged packaging blank 2.
  • the first inspection device 11 can also be designed to detect faulty or defective bottles 4.
  • One embodiment provides that the at least one first inspection device 11 detects the fill level in the bottles 4 . In this way, containers 5 that contain insufficiently filled bottles 4 can be recognized and these can be removed before further processing.
  • In 1 is shown by way of example that a packaging blank 2f is incorrectly arranged on the bottles 4, as a result of which a defective container 5f has arisen.
  • the first inspection device 11 is, for example, a camera 12 with appropriate image evaluation software, which recognizes the defective container 5f.
  • the information is sent to a corresponding control device 13 transmitted, which controls a removal device 14, which removes the defective container 5f from the product flow, so that it is not fed to further processing, for example a layer formation in a downstream layer formation module 15
