Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Gerät zum Schlitzen und Ringeln von Zierverpackungsbändern gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Pa­tentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a device for slitting and curling decorative packaging tapes according to the preamble of claim 1.

Zum Verpacken von Geschenken werden bekanntlich Zierver­packungsbänder verwendet. Zur optischen Verbesserung ist es bekannt, diese Bänder in Längsrichtung zu Schlitzen, so daß eine Vielzahl schmaler Streifen entstehen. Dane­ben ist es auch üblich, sogenannte Ringelbänder zu er­zeugen. Wenn nämlich ein Zierverpackungsband über eine scharfe Kante gezogen wird, ringelt sich das Band, und wenn das Zierverpackungsband zusätzlich in Längsrichtung geschlitzt worden ist, ringeln sich die entstehenden ein­ zelnen schmalen Streifen.As is well known, decorative packaging tapes are used to pack gifts. For optical improvement, it is known to slit these strips in the longitudinal direction, so that a large number of narrow strips are formed. In addition, it is also common to produce so-called ring straps. This is because if a decorative packaging tape is pulled over a sharp edge, the tape curls, and if the decorative packaging tape is additionally slit in the longitudinal direction, the resultant curls individual narrow stripes.

Durch die US-PS 3 883 953 ist ein Gerät bekannt, wel­ches es ermöglicht, ein Zierverpackungsband zu schlitzen. Das Gerät umfaßt einen Schneidstempel, der federnd und beweglich mit einer Gegenplatte verbunden ist, wobei der Schneidstempel auf seiner der Gegenplatte zuge­wandten Seite eine Vielzahl von Schneidelementen be­sitzt, um das Zierverpackungsband zu schlitzen.A device is known from US Pat. No. 3,883,953 which makes it possible to slit a decorative packaging tape. The device comprises a cutting punch which is connected resiliently and movably to a counterplate, the cutting punch having a plurality of cutting elements on its side facing the counterplate in order to slit the decorative packaging tape.

Bei dem bekannten Gerät sind die Schneidelemente durch spitze kammartige Metallzähne gebildet. Die Herstellung solcher Metallzähne ist in der Praxis sehr aufwendig, denn diese Metallzähne können nicht durch Stanzen erzeugt werden. Beim Stanzen bildet sich nämlich insbesondere im Bereich der Spitzen ein Grat, so daß eine Nachbehandlung durch Feilen erfor­derlich ist, um scharfe Spitzen zu erhalten. Eine solche Nachbehandlung ist jedoch bei der Produktion von großen Stückzahlen sehr zeitaufwendig und damit teuer.In the known device, the cutting elements are formed by pointed comb-like metal teeth. The production of such metal teeth is very expensive in practice because these metal teeth cannot be produced by stamping. When punching, a burr is formed in particular in the area of the tips, so that post-treatment by filing is necessary in order to obtain sharp tips. However, such an aftertreatment is very time-consuming and therefore expensive when producing large quantities.

Im übrigen erstrecken sich die Metallzähne bei dem bekannten Gerät quer zu der Richtung, in welcher das Zierverpackungsband zum Schlitzen zwischen dem Schneidstempel und der Gegenplatte bewegt wird. Diese Anordnung hat zur Folge, daß sich während des Schlitz­vorganges das Zierverpackungsband nach oben in den vergrößerten Querschnitt der Zähne hinein bewegt. Die Folge ist ein unsauber und optisch unangenehm ge­schlitztes Zierverpackungsband. Wenn sich nämlich das Zierverpackungsband nach oben bewegt, kommen nicht mehr die Spitzen der Metallzähne zur Wirkung, sondern deren verbreiterter Querschnitt, so daß das Zierverpackungsband nicht sauber geschlitzt, sondern vielmehr aufgerissen wird.Otherwise, the metal teeth in the known device extend transversely to the direction in which the decorative packaging tape for slitting between the Cutting punch and the counter plate is moved. The result of this arrangement is that during the slitting process the decorative packaging tape moves upward into the enlarged cross section of the teeth. The result is an unclean and visually unpleasant slit decorative packaging tape. When the decorative packaging tape moves upward, the tips of the metal teeth no longer come into effect, but their widened cross-section, so that the decorative packaging tape is not slit cleanly, but rather is torn open.

Aus den genannten Gründen hat sich das bekannte Gerät in der Praxis nicht bewähren können.For the reasons mentioned, the known device has not been able to prove itself in practice.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Gerät zu schaffen, welches bei einfacher und kostengünstiger Herstellung und bei einfacher Handhabung ein sicherers und sauberes Schlitzen von Zierverpackungsbändern er­möglicht.The invention has for its object to provide a device which allows a safe and clean slitting of decorative packaging tapes with simple and inexpensive manufacture and easy handling.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt bei dem im Oberbe­griff des Patentanspruchs 1 genannten Gerät durch die Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teils des Patentanspruchs 1.This object is achieved in the device mentioned in the preamble of patent claim 1 by the features of the characterizing part of patent claim 1.

Bei der Erfindung sind die Schneidelemente als Kunst­stoffschneiden ausgebildet, die sich nicht quer zur Relativbewegung zwischen dem Gerät und dem Zierver­packungsband, sondern in Richtung dieser Relativbe­wegung erstrecken. Außerdem ist die Gegenplatte als eine Matrize mit Löchern ausgebildet, wobei jeder ein­zelnen Kunststoffschneide ein Loch zugeordnet ist, in welches die betreffende Kunststoffschneide eintau­chen kann.In the invention, the cutting elements are designed as plastic cutting edges that do not extend transversely to the relative movement between the device and the decorative packaging tape, but in the direction of this relative movement. In addition, the counterplate is designed as a die with holes, with each individual plastic cutting edge being assigned a hole into which the plastic cutting edge in question can be immersed.

Durch die genannten Maßnahmen wird ein sauber ge­schlitztes Zierverpackungsband erreicht. Da die ein­zelnen Kunststoffschneiden in die Löcher eintauchen können, ist gewährleistet, daß die Kunststoffschneiden das Zierverpackungsband durchdringen bzw. durchstoßen, und da sich die Kunststoffschneiden in Richtung der Relativbewegung zwischen dem Gerät und dem Zierver­packungsband erstrecken, ist nach dem Durchstoßen bzw. Durchdringen des Zierverpackungsbandes mit den Kunst­stoffschneiden ein einwandfreies Schlitzen möglich.A clean slit decorative packaging tape is achieved by the measures mentioned. Since the individual plastic cutting edges can dip into the holes, it is ensured that the plastic cutting edges penetrate or pierce the decorative packaging tape, and since the plastic cutting edges extend in the direction of the relative movement between the device and the decorative packaging tape, after the piercing or penetration of the decorative packaging tape the plastic cutting edges can be properly slit.

Vorzugsweise bestehen übrigens nicht nur die Schneid­elemente aus Kunststoff, vielmehr wird das ganze kom­plette Gerät aus Kunststoff hergestellt.By the way, preferably not only are the cutting elements made of plastic, but rather the entire device is made of plastic.

In einer zweckmäßigen Ausgestaltung der Erfindung be­sitzen die Kunststoffschneiden eine Form nach Art eines Stiletts mit einer Spitze, wobei beide Außenkanten jeder Kunststoffschneide scharf ausgebildet sind. Dadurch ist es möglich, das Gerät sowohl rechtshändig als auch linkshändig zu benutzen, denn in beiden möglichen Be­wegungsrichtungen kommen die scharfen Außenkanten zur Wirkung, um das Zierverpackungsband zu schlitzen.In an expedient embodiment of the invention, the plastic cutting edges have a shape in the manner of a stylet with a tip, both outer edges of each plastic cutting edge being sharp. This makes it possible to use the device both right-handed and left-handed, because the sharp outer edges come into effect in both possible directions of movement in order to slit the decorative packaging tape.

In einer weiteren zweckmäßigen Ausgestaltung der Er­findung sind der Schneidstempel und die Gegenplatte mittig so miteinander verbunden und gelagert, daß sie eine Doppelgabel bilden und daß sie parallel zueinan­der bewegbar sind. In ihrer Arbeitsposition liegen der Schneidstempel und die Gegenplatte parallel auf­einander, so daß alle Kunststoffschneiden gleichzeitig in die Löcher eindringen, die in vorteilhafter Weise als Schlitze ausgebildet sind.In a further expedient embodiment of the invention, the cutting punch and the counter plate are connected to one another in the center and are mounted such that they form a double fork and that they can be moved parallel to one another. In their working position, the cutting punch and the counter plate lie parallel to one another, so that all plastic cutting edges penetrate into the holes at the same time, which are advantageously designed as slots.

Diese Maßnahme ermöglicht eine sichere Führung, weil der Schneidstempel und die Gegenplatte in ihrer Arbeits­position ohne Freiraum aufeinander liegen.This measure enables safe guidance because the cutting punch and the counter plate lie on one another in their working position without free space.

In einer weiteren zweckmäßigen Ausgestaltung der Er­findung ist vorgesehen, daß der Schneidstempel und/oder die Gegenplatte an mindestens einer ihrer Längsseiten eine scharfe hinterschnittene Kante aufweisen. Diese Kante ermöglicht es, das Zierverpackungsband nicht nur zu schlitzen, sondern gleichzeitig auch zu ringeln, indem das Zierverpackungsband über die scharfe Kante gezogen wird.In a further expedient embodiment of the invention it is provided that the cutting punch and / or the counterplate has a sharp undercut edge on at least one of its long sides. This edge makes it possible not only to slit the decorative packaging tape but also to curl it at the same time by pulling the decorative packaging tape over the sharp edge.

Als eine Alternative sieht die Erfindung gemäß dem Pa­tentanspruch 1 noch vor, daß die dem Schneidstempel zugewandte Oberfläche der Gegenplatte als eine weiche Oberfläche ausgebildet ist.As an alternative, the invention according to claim 1 also provides that the surface of the counter plate facing the cutting punch is designed as a soft surface.

In Versuchen hat sich nämlich gezeigt, daß es schon ausreicht, die Oberfläche der Gegenplatte weich auszu­bilden, um ein optisch saüber geschlitztes Ringelband mit den neuartigen Kunststoffschneiden zu erzeugen. Durch die weiche Oberfläche wird erreicht, daß die Spitzen der Kunststoffschneiden das Zierverpackungs­band beim Zusammendrücken von Schneidstempel und Ge­genplatte durchdringen, wodurch das Zierverpackungs­band saüber geschlitzt werden kann.Experiments have shown that it is sufficient to make the surface of the counterplate soft in order to produce an optically clean slit strip with the novel plastic cutting edges. The soft surface ensures that the tips of the plastic cutting edges penetrate the decorative packaging tape when the cutting punch and counterplate are pressed together, as a result of which the decorative packaging tape can be slit over it.

Weitere zweckmäßige Ausgestaltungen und vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen, der Beschreibung und der nachfolgen­den Zeichnung.Further expedient refinements and advantageous developments of the invention result from the subclaims, the description and the following drawing.

Zum besseren Verständnis wird die Erfindung nachfol­gend anhand der Zeichnung beispielhaft näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 6 eine andere Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Gerätes in Form einer einfachen Gabel.
For a better understanding, the invention is explained in more detail below using the drawing as an example. Show it:
  • 1 is a schematic perspective view of a cutting punch,
  • 2 is a simplified schematic representation of a counter plate,
  • 3 shows an embodiment of the device according to the invention, which is equipped as a double fork with the cutting punch according to FIG. 1 and the counter plate according to FIG. 2,

In Fig. 1 und 2 sind ein Schneidstempel 1 sowie eine Gegenplatte 7 dargestellt, welche im zusammengefügten Zustand ein Gerät zum Schlitzen und Ringeln von Zier­verpackungsbändern bilden. Fig. 3 zeigt den Schneid­stempel 1 und die Gegendruckplatte 7 im zu dem Gerät zusammengefügten Zustand.1 and 2, a cutting punch 1 and a counter plate 7 are shown, which in the assembled state form a device for slitting and curling decorative packaging tapes. Fig. 3 shows the cutting punch 1 and the counter pressure plate 7 in the assembled state to the device.

Der Schneidstempel 1 besitzt auf seiner der Gegenplatte 7 zugewandten Seite zwei Reihen von Kunststoffschnei­den 2, die jeweils in unterschiedlichen Abständen zu­einander angeordnet sind, so daß es möglich ist, unter­schiedliche Schlitzbreiten zu erzielen.The cutting punch 1 has on its side facing the counterplate 7 two rows of plastic cutting edges 2, which are each arranged at different distances from one another, so that it is possible to achieve different slot widths.

Die Kunststoffschneiden 2 haben eine Form nach Art eines Stiletts mit einer Spitze und erstrecken sich in Richtung der Relativbewegung A zwischen dem Gerät und dem Zierverpackungsband 9 (vgl. Fig. 5). Die bei­ den Außenkanten jeder Kunststoffschneide 2 sind scharf ausgebildet, so daß es auf die Richtung der Relativbe­wegung A zwischen dem Gerät und dem Zierverpackungs­band nicht ankommt, wodurch sowohl eine rechtshändige als auch eine linkshändige Benutzung möglich ist.The plastic cutting edges 2 have a shape like a stiletto with a tip and extend in the direction of the relative movement A between the device and the decorative packaging tape 9 (cf. FIG. 5). The at the outer edges of each plastic cutting edge 2 are sharp, so that the direction of the relative movement A between the device and the decorative packaging tape is not important, so that both right-handed and left-handed use is possible.

Wie die Darstellung in Fig. 2 verdeutlicht, ist die Gegenplatte 7 nach Art einer Matrize ausgebildet und besitzt Löcher in Form von Schlitzen 4. Dabei ist je­der Kunststoffschneide 2 des Schneidstempels 1 ein Schlitz 4 zugeordnet. Jede Kunststoffschneide 2 kann also in den entsprechenden Schlitz 4 eintauchen, wenn gemäß der Darstellung in Fig. 4 der Schneidstempel 1 und die Gegenplatte 7 zusammengedrückt sind.As the illustration in FIG. 2 illustrates, the counter plate 7 is designed in the manner of a matrix and has holes in the form of slots 4. A slot 4 is assigned to each plastic cutting edge 2 of the cutting punch 1. Each plastic cutting edge 2 can thus dip into the corresponding slot 4 if, as shown in FIG. 4, the cutting punch 1 and the counter plate 7 are pressed together.

Fig. 3 zeigt eine Seitenansicht des Gerätes mit dem Schneidstempel 1 gemäß Fig. 1 und der Gegenplatte 7 gemäß Fig. 2. Der Schneidstempel 1 und die Gegenplatte 7 sind so miteinander verbunden und über Führungs­stifte 8 geführt, daß sie parallel zueinander in Rich­tung des Pfeiles B bewegbar sind. Die Bewegung erfolgt entgegen der Kraft einer Feder 10, so daß dann, wenn man den Schneidstempel 1 und die Gegenplatte 7 losläßt, die in Fig. 3 gezeigte Ruheposition eingenommen wird. In dieser Ruheposition kann ein Zierverpackungsband zwischen den Schneidstempel 1 und die Gegenplatte 7 eingeführt werden.3 shows a side view of the device with the cutting punch 1 according to FIG. 1 and the counter plate 7 according to FIG. 2. The cutting punch 1 and the counter plate 7 are connected to one another and guided over guide pins 8 in such a way that they are parallel to one another in the direction of the arrow B are movable. The movement takes place against the force of a spring 10, so that when the cutting punch 1 and the counter plate 7 are released, the rest position shown in FIG. 3 is assumed. In this rest position, a decorative packaging tape be inserted between the cutting punch 1 and the counter plate 7.

Wie Fig. 5 verdeutlicht, werden dann der Schneidstem­pel 1 und die Gegenplatte 7 entgegen der Kraft der Feder 10 zusammengedrückt, so daß die Arbeitsposition gemäß Fig. 4 eingenommen wird. Dabei durchdringen die Kunststoffschneiden 2 das Zierverpackungsband 9, wobei die Kunststoffschneiden 2 in die Schlitze 4 eintauchen.As illustrated in FIG. 5, the cutting punch 1 and the counter plate 7 are then pressed together against the force of the spring 10, so that the working position according to FIG. 4 is assumed. The plastic cutting edges 2 penetrate the decorative packaging tape 9, the plastic cutting edges 2 immersing in the slots 4.

Bei beispielsweise festgehaltenem Zierverpackungsband 9 wird dann das Gerät in Richtung des Pfeiles A in Fig. 5 bewegt, und während dieser Bewegung wird das Zierver­packungsband 9 geschlitzt.If, for example, decorative packaging tape 9 is held, the device is then moved in the direction of arrow A in FIG. 5, and during this movement the decorative packaging tape 9 is slit.

Im zusammengedrückten Zustand gemäß Fig. 4 greifen die in Fig. 3 zu erkennenden äußeren Führungsnasen 5 des Schneidstempels 1 in entsprechende Führungsnuten 6 der Gegenplatte 7 ein, so daß der Schneidstempel 1 und die Gegenplatte 7 eine stabile Lage einnehmen und verdreh­sicher gehalten sind.In the compressed state according to FIG. 4, the outer guide lugs 5 of the cutting punch 1, which can be seen in FIG. 3, engage in corresponding guide grooves 6 of the counter plate 7, so that the cutting punch 1 and the counter plate 7 assume a stable position and are held against rotation.

Während die Darstellung gemäß Fig. 3 und 4 eine Ausbil­dung des Gerätes nach Art einer Doppelgabel mit einer mittigen Befestigung und Lagerung zeigt, ist in Fig. 6 in einer anderen Ausführungsform ein Gerät dargestellt, welches eine einfache Gabel bildet. Funktionsweise und Prinzip dieser Ausführungsform entsprechen der obigen Beschreibung. Allerdings läßt sich mit dem Gerät nach Fig. 6 nur eine einzige Breite der geschlitzten Strei­fen des Zierverpackungsbandes 9 erzielen, während die Ausbildung gemäß Fig. 3 nach Art einer Doppelgabel die Wahl zwischen zwei unterschiedlichen Breiten zuläßt, je nach dem, 0b das Zierverpackungsband links oder rechts der mittigen Lagerung durch die Führungstifte 8 eingeführt wird.3 and 4 shows an embodiment of the device in the manner of a double fork with a central fastening and mounting, in FIG. 6 another device is shown, which forms a simple fork. Operation and principle of this embodiment correspond to the description above. However, only a single width of the slotted strips of the decorative packaging tape 9 can be achieved with the device according to FIG. 6, while the design according to FIG. 3, in the manner of a double fork, allows the choice between two different widths, depending on whether the decorative packaging tape is on the left or right of the central storage is inserted through the guide pins 8.
