Definitions

  • the invention relates to the sector of industrial machinery for goods packaging.
  • the invention concerns a packaging machine for film-wrapping a roll of web material, of the type comprising a cylindrical body and two flat sides, in particular, but not exclusively, paper.
  • one of the packaging techniques used is axial wrapping of the roll with film, where the film is wound in the longitudinal direction of the roll and always terminates on the flat surface representing a side of the cylindrical body of the roll.
  • the known axial packaging machines comprise:
  • Such a packaging machine is known, for example, from US 4 565 051 .
  • the roll is rotated by means of two rollers, or a belt, which support it and at the same time rotate it around the longitudinal axis thereof.
  • Said rotating arm at the end of which the film distributing head is arranged, revolves around the roll which is rotated on itself, gradually unwinding the film until it is completely wound around the roll.
  • said rotating arm has a fixed height from the ground and the film distributing head moves vertically with respect thereto so that it assumes a central position relative to the roll.
  • said frame for resting on the ground can be of the type comprising two columns and a gantry movable vertically thereon, below which the rotating arm is rotatably associated.
  • the film is terminated by sealing it on the film already unwound and cutting it.
  • the traditional packaging machines comprise:
  • Said packaging machines comprise clamping means for clamping said at least one free edge of film, associated with said frame or fixed to the ground.
  • the film termination operations are performed as follows:
  • sealing and cutting devices are separate from each other and geometrically distant, said operations generate two free edges of film: a first edge extends from the sealing line on the roll to the point at which the cut has been made; a second edge extends from the cutting point to the film distributing head.
  • the first edge is not particularly bothersome, and may not even be present if the cutting means are near the sealing means, the second edge is more problematic and must be retained in order to automatically resume the winding operations, also on a new roll.
  • the free edge has a considerable length (equal at least to the sum of the distance between the side of the roll and the clamping means and between the latter and the film distributing head) and, if not controlled, can reach the various mechanisms of the machine with the risk of jamming.
  • the film overcomes the clamping means which are still closed, passing above them accompanied by mechanical leads. This causes easy breakages of the film during the phase of overcoming said leads.
  • sealing, cutting and clamping means integrated on a single structure that moves toward and away from the side of the roll.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to overcome the above negative aspects, providing a packaging machine for film-wrapping a roll of web material that correctly manages and minimizes the edge of film produced during cutting, which is efficient, practical, easy to manage and ensures rapid winding of the roll, optimizing all the wrapping operations, without wastage of film, and providing a packaged roll free from defects.
  • a further object of the invention is to produce a packaging machine provided with a supporting structure that integrates the functions of sealing, cutting and clamping of the film at a very limited geometric distance between the relative components, and which does not interfere with or obstruct the passage of the film distributing head.
  • the object of the invention is achieved by a packaging machine for film-wrapping a roll of web material comprising two flat sides, where said packaging machine comprises:
  • said bracket is reclinable and is connected to said first supporting structure by means of horizontal axis hinge constraining means, allowing said bracket to rotate in a vertical plane between two work positions.
  • said first supporting structure comprises actuator means for rotating said bracket around said hinge constraining means.
  • said first supporting structure comprises:
  • said carriage constraining means comprise a sliding block associated with said second end of said vertical upright and a track, on which said sliding block slides, provided along said horizontal cross member.
  • said first supporting structure comprises actuator means adapted to impart a translation movement to said sliding block.
  • said sealing means comprise a sealing bar
  • said cutting means comprise a metal wire and heating means for said wire.
  • said sealing bar and said metal wire are positioned beside each other parallel to the extension of said bracket.
  • said clamping means comprise two slidable jaws, slidable by means of actuator means toward and away from each other, along said bracket.
  • said jaws are slidable along said reclinable bracket parallel to said sealing bar and said cutting wire.
  • said rotating arm rotatably associated below said gantry is symmetrical and comprises two ends, with each of which a film distributing head is associated, where said packaging machine comprises a first and second supporting structure for corresponding sealing means, cutting means and clamping means, slidable symmetrically along said gantry, each moving toward or away from a side of said roll.
  • the invention has numerous advantages due substantially to the presence of a compact supporting structure, which integrates and incorporates in a functional assembly the film sealing, cutting and clamping means, with minimum overall dimensions and a very limited geometrical distance between the single components.
  • All the sealing, cutting and clamping means are on board said reclinable bracket and therefore all move with it simultaneously.
  • a further advantage consists in the possibility of said reclinable bracket rotating, arranging itself horizontally at a height not interfering with the passage of the film distributing head.
  • the rotating arm can therefore carry out several rotations while the clamping means continue to retain said edge, so as to secure the film being wound on the roll before releasing the edge which is thus incorporated in the wrapping.
  • a packaging machine 1 for wrapping with film 100, preferably a polyethylene film, a roll 200 of web paper material having a longitudinal axis x, a cylindrical body and two flat sides 201.
  • the same packaging machine 1 can be used for packaging all goods having a flat surface on which the film can be terminated such as, for example, in addition to rolls, also pallets or packages with parallelepipedal shape.
  • said packaging machine 1 essentially comprises:
  • Said first motor means M1 comprise an electric motor and a belt drive.
  • Said rotating arm 6 is symmetrical: at a first end 6' thereof the film distributing head 7 is associated, while at a second end 6" thereof a balancing counterweight (not illustrated) is associated.
  • Said second motor means M2 comprise a parallel axis gearmotor and a device for the electric connection between said gantry 5 and said rotating arm 6.
  • Said supporting and rolling means 8 for supporting and rolling said roll 200 comprise two tubular belts 23 on which the roll 200 lies; said tubular belts 23, provided with respective longitudinal axes, arranged symmetrically relative to a vertical plane passing through said longitudinal axis x of the roll 200, provide an ideal cradle for housing rolls 200 having different diameters.
  • said support and rolling means 8 can have other forms known to persons skilled in the art.
  • Said packaging machine 1 comprises a first supporting structure 11 on which the following are installed:
  • Said first supporting structure 11 for said sealing means 9, said cutting means 10 and said clamping means 12 is slidable along said gantry 5, moving toward or away from the side 201 of said roll 200.
  • said first supporting structure 11 comprises:
  • said sealing means 9, said cutting means 10 and said clamping means 12 are arranged so as to integrate in a functional assembly all the means for terminating the winding of said roll 200.
  • Said hinge constraining means 14 are adapted to allow said reclinable bracket 13 to rotate in a vertical plane between two work positions.
  • Said reclinable bracket 13 rotates substantially by 90° between a vertical operating position for sealing and cutting the film against the side 201 of said roll and a horizontal operating position for retaining the free edge 101 of film 100 during starting of winding of the roll 200.
  • Said carriage constraining means 18 comprise a sliding block 19 associated with said second end 17" of said vertical upright 17 and a track 20, on which said sliding block 19 is slidable.
  • Said first supporting structure 11 comprises actuator means 15 to cause the rotation of said reclinable bracket 13 around said hinge constraining means 14, and actuator means 22 adapted to impart a translation movement to said sliding block 19.
  • Said actuator means 15 are of linear type.
  • Said actuator means 22 are of linear type advantageously composed of a pneumatic cylinder without stem or of a linear motorized guide.
  • Said sealing means comprise a sealing bar 9.
  • Said cutting means comprise a metal wire 10, advantageously an electric resistance, and heating means for said wire, advantageously operating by means of electric current.
  • Said clamping means comprise two jaws 12 slidable, by means of actuator means 21, toward and away from each other. Said jaws 12, by closing against each other, compact the free end 101' of the free edge 101 of film 100 in a butterfly shape.
  • Said sealing bar 9 and said metal wire 10 are positioned beside each other longitudinally to said reclinable bracket 13; said jaws 12 are slidable along said reclinable bracket 13 parallel to said sealing bar 9 and to said cutting wire 10.
  • said packaging machine 1 comprises a single film distributing head 7 associated with one end 6' of said rotating arm 6.
  • the arm is symmetrical relative to its rotation axis y and at the second free end 6" a counterweight (not illustrated) is positioned in order to balance the weight of the film distributing head 7.
  • said packaging machine 1 comprises a first and a second film distributing head 7 arranged at the ends 6', 6" of the symmetrical rotating arm 6 adapted to operate simultaneously on the roll 200 so as to halve the wrapping times.
