Definitions

  • the invention relates to a machine for packing bottles in and unpacking bottles from bottle cases, which can be lifted mechanically during the packing or unpacking process with the aid of a case lifting member.
  • the case lifting member which is mechanically movable upwards and downwards in the machine frame be provided with a platform for receiving the bottle cases, said platform being adapted to be lifted and lowered additionally in the case lifting member independently of the mechanical driving thereof.
  • a pneumatic working cylinder air cylinder supported in the case lifting member and intermediate levers in communication therewith and engaging the platform guide.
  • a proportionally deeper correction frame may be used.
  • a part of the lifting movement of the bottle cases is effected not mechanically, but pneumatically or electromagnetically.
  • a bumping against the compartment divisions or other such obstacles might cause serious problems during the last part of the lifting movement.
  • a buffer action is generated, the hardness of which is dependent on the working pressure of the air cylinder taking care of the second lifting movement of the platform.
  • control valves for the working cylinder of the platform be secured in the machine frame and be adapted to be switched dependently on or independently of the position of the case lifting member, while the pneumatic lifting of the platform may take place simultaneously with or after the mechanical lifting of the case lifting member.
  • a correction frame be provided, which may extend deeply into the cases.
  • FIGURES 1 and 2 show schematically the construction of a packing or unpacking machine
  • FIGURES 3, 4 and 5 show the upwardly and downwardly movable dual stage lifting member in various positions during a packing process.
  • the machine comprises a central upwardly and downwardly movable shaft 1, which is supported in the machine frame 2 shown only schematically.
  • the shaft 1 is supported at the lower end on a balance beam 3, which Via an intermediate lever 4 carries the case lifting member 5.
  • On the upper platform 6 of the case lifting member 5 the bottle case 7 is placed.
  • a correction frame 9 is provided between the bottle case 7 and the holding frames 8 for the bottles.
  • FIG. 1 the holding frame 8 for the bottles and the case lifting member 5 are spaced so far from each other that the holding frames 8 with the bottles hanging therein may be moved freely above the case 7.
  • the correction frame 9 sits on the case 7 and has already been slightly moved in upwards direction. Simultaneously the holding frame 8 for the bottles is lowered by a distance indicated by the arrow 10, while the bottles 17 hanging from the bottle grippers 16 enter through the correction frame into the bottle cases 7.
  • a supplemental lifting movement is provided for the lifting member 5. This supplemental movement is effected by means of an air cylinder 18 which acts via rod 19 on levers 20 having meshing tooth seg ments, the lever 20 serving to raise the platform 6 of the case lifting member by a distance indicated by the arrow 21, the aid of the air cylinder 18 arranged in the case lifting the rods 22 guiding the platform 6.
  • a pressure reducing valve 24 may be arranged, with the aid of which the force action and damping action of the air cylinder may be adapted to 4 the weight of the cases 7 to be lifted and of the correction frame 9.
  • the control valves for the air inlet conduit may be switchable, in dependence on the position of the case lifting member 5 or 4.
  • Bottle handling apparatus comprising a bottle-case lifting member, a bottle holding frame above said case lifting member and adapted for suspending bottles above a case supported on the lifting member, a lever means engaging said lifting member and frame and adapted for moving the same in opposite vertical directions towards and away from each other, and supplemental lifting means on the lever means between the latter and said lifting member to supplement the movement of the lifting member imparted by said lever means.
  • Apparatus as claimed in claim 1 comprising a correction frame between the lifting member and holding frame and wherein said lever means comprises a balance lever pivotally coupled to said lifting member and holding frame.
