Description

从包装材料管开始形成可灌注的食品用的多个密封包装的形 成组件和方法
技术领域
本发明涉及一种从包装材料管开始形成用于可灌注食品的多个密封包装的形成组件和方法。
背景技术
如所已知的,许多液体食品或者可灌注食品(诸如果汁、UHT(超高温处理的)奶、酒、番茄酱等)在由经灭菌的包装材料制成的包装中出售。
一个典型的例子是称为Tetra Brik Aseptic(注册商标)的液体或可灌注食品的平行六面体状包装,其通过折叠和密封层压条包装材料制成。包装材料具有多层结构,其包括基底层(例如,纸层),基底层两侧用热封塑料材料(例如,聚乙烯)覆盖。在诸如UHT奶之类的长期存储产品的无菌包装的情况下,包装材料还包括氧阻隔材料层(例如,铝箔),其叠加在热封塑料材料层上,然后进而用形成最后接触食品的包装内表面的另一热封塑料材料层覆盖。
这种包装通常在全自动包装单元上生产,在该包装单元上由卷材进给式包装材料形成连续的管;包装材料卷材在包装单元上灭菌,例如,通过施加化学灭菌剂(例如过氧化氢溶液)灭菌,一旦灭菌完成后,该化学灭菌剂(例如过氧化氢溶液)就例如通过加热蒸发从包装材料的表面去除;然后将经如此灭菌的卷材保持在封闭的无菌环境中,并且被纵向折叠和密封以形成沿着竖直行进方向进给的管。
为了完成成型操作,将管填充经灭菌或无菌处理的食品,并将其密封并随后沿等间隔的横向横截面切割。
如此获得枕形包,其具有纵向密封带和一对顶部和底部横向密封带。
包装单元是已知的,例如在欧洲专利EP-B-0887265中所描述的,其包括限定各自的环形路径的两个链式输送机。
更详细地,第一输送机装配有多个第一钳口,每个第一钳口包括相应的密封元件和相应的可抽出的切割元件。
第二输送机装配有多个第二钳口,每个第二钳口与相对的第一钳口相关联并且包括相应的相对密封元件(counter-sealing element)和相应的支座。
特别地,密封元件是加热元件,并且相对密封元件由弹性体材料制成,其提供必要的机械支撑以将管夹紧到所期望的压力。
链式输送机的路径包括:
-相应的操作分支,其基本上相互面对并且相互平行,并且在其间进给包装材料管,使得第一钳口与在另一个输送机上的第二钳口配合,以在多个连续的横截面处夹持管,并且热封管并切割出包装;和
-相应的返回分支,第一钳口和第二钳口沿着该分支与管分开。
更详细地,当第一钳口和相应的第二钳口在操作分支的下游沿着返回分支相对于链式输送机的前进方向移动时,它们首先彼此远离,并且接着相互朝向对方移动。
当每个第一钳口沿着操作分支与相应的第二钳口配合时,相应的密封元件与相应的相对密封元件配合,以在相应的横截面处对管进行热密封。
此外,当每个第一钳口与相应的第二钳口配合时,抽出相应的切割元件以在横截面处切割所形成的密封包装,以形成相应的密封包装。
每个第一钳口和第二钳口还包括相应的形成半壳,它们相对于相应的密封元件或相对密封元件铰接,以便控制在形成中的相应的包装的体积。
每个第一钳口和相应的第二钳口的半壳在以下位置之间循环移动:
-打开位置,在该打开位置,它们与管分离;和
-闭合位置,在该闭合位置,它们接触管并将管的在两个连续的密封部分之间的部分折叠,以限定和控制正在形成的包装的体积。
以这种方式,当每个第一钳口的密封元件密封形成中的包装时,相同的第一钳口和相应的第二钳口的半壳控制在形成中的包装的体积。
更具体地,半壳可以通过相应的弹簧而被弹力加载到相应的打开位置中,并且具有相应的辊,相应的辊与相应的凸轮协作,所述凸轮被设计成当其向下移动时在形成组件到达预定位置时将半壳移动到相应的闭合位置。
每个半壳具有C形横截面,并且整体地包括:主壁和从主壁的相应的相对端边缘朝着包装材料管的轴线突出的两个平行的侧翼。
在闭合位置,主壁位于管轴线的相对侧,彼此平行,并与管的相应的第一部分配合。
在闭合位置,一个半壳的翼片与管的相应的第二部分配合,以完全控制正在形成的包装的体积,并且在相应的主壁的相对侧上面对另一半壳上的相应的翼片。
最后,包装单元包括布置在管的相应侧上的成对的固定凸轮组件。
凸轮组件以滚动方式与由第一钳口和第二钳口承载的相应辊配合。
凸轮组件的轮廓被设计成沿着相应的返回分支和操作分支移动第一钳口和第二钳口,并且确保由第一钳口和第二钳口所呈现的相应位置之间的最平滑过渡,以便防止材料上的不必要的应力。
凸轮组件被设定形状以便在管的形成完成之后,所述半壳在它们平行于管的前进方向移动时从关闭位置移动到打开位置。
以这种方式,切割和密封的包装在重力作用下落到出口输送机上,出口输送机在包装单元的下部区域中并且沿着管的前进方向布置。
虽然整体表现出色,但所述类型的包装单元仍然有进一步改进的空间。
特别地,申请人已经发现,存在风险,即形成的包装的包装材料有可能粘附在用于形成紧邻的在形成中的上游包装的包装材料中,从而在两个连续包装之间形成连接桥。
因此,存在重力作用不能确保包装的适当的、可重复和精确的分离以及因此不能将包装运输到出口输送机这样的风险。
业界认为,有必要改善包装分离的可重复性和精确度,并因此改善将所形成的包装朝向出口输送机运送的可重复性和精确度。
发明内容
因此,本发明的目的是提供一种从包装材料管开始形成用于可灌注食品的多个密封包装的形成组件,从而满足上述需求中的至少一个。
根据本发明,提供了一种如权利要求1所述的从包装材料管开始形成用于可灌注食品的多个密封包装的形成组件。

以很相同的方式,形成组件10a的每个滑架15a与对应的滑架15b相关联。
每对相应的滑架14a,14b(或14a',14b')和成对紧邻的之前的和随后的滑架15a,15b形成并密封相应的包装3。
在下面的说明中,将描述仅一组对应的滑架14a',15b,14a和相应的一组对应的滑架14b',15b,15a,因为所有滑架14a',14b';15a,15b;14a,14b彼此相同。

在所示的实施方式中,密封元件22b是加热元件。相对密封元件22a由弹性体材料制成,其提供必要的机械支撑以将管2夹紧到所期望的压力。
滑架14a',14b';14a,14b和滑架15a,15b能在相应的轨道13a,13b上彼此独立地自行移动。
这样,形成组件10a的半壳21a';21a和相对密封元件22a能彼此独立地移动。
半壳21b';21b和密封元件22b能彼此独立地移动。
具体参考图1和图5,半壳21a',21b';21a,21b,相对密封元件22a和密封元件22b由相应的滑架14a',14b';14a,14b;15a,15b沿着循环环状路径P,Q驱动。
具体地说,沿着路径P,Q按照滑架14a',14b';15a,15b;14a,14b的前进方向行进,滑架14a',14b'布置在滑架15a,15b的上游,而滑架15a,15b布置在滑架14a,14b的上游。

换言之,半壳21a',21b';21a,21b,以及相对密封元件22a和密封元件22b沿着方向B在相应的打开位置和闭合位置之间的运动被叠加到沿着操作分支P1,Q1的运动上。
当半壳21a',21b';21a,21b均处于相应的闭合位置,它们限定基本上平行六面体状的腔(图1,4和5),并因此控制形成中的相应的包装3的体积。
特别地,当半壳21a',21b';21a,21b位于相应的闭合位置时,相应的壁28位于轴线A的相对侧上,彼此平行并与管2配合。在闭合位置,一个半壳21a',21b';21a,21b的翼片29与管2配合以完全控制在形成中的包装3的体积,面对其他半壳21a',21b';21a,21b的翼片29,并且基本上垂直于相应的壁28。
相反,当半壳21a',21b';21a,21b处于相应的打开位置时,壁28与管2分离,并且翼片29从相应的壁28散开。
当相对密封元件22a和密封元件22b处于相应的闭合位置时,它们将管热封,从而形成包装3的横向密封带。
同时,抽出切割元件23b,以将所形成的包装3彼此分开。

凸轮表面72a,72b介于凸轮表面71a,71b之间。
凸轮表面71a,71b和凸轮表面72a,72b介于凸轮表面73之间。
凸轮表面71a,72a和凸轮表面71b,72b在离轴线A不同的距离处延伸,并且成形为使得半壳21a',21b';21a,21b:
-沿操作分支P1,Q1的相应的部分31a,31b保持在相应的打开位置;和
-沿相应的操作分支P1,Q1的相应的部分32a,32b;33a,33b布置在相应的闭合位置。
此外,凸轮表面71a,72a成形为使得半壳21a',21a沿着操作分支P1的部分34a布置在打开位置。
凸轮表面71b,72b尤其包括(图3和图6):
-相应的主要部分75,其具有平行于轴线A的长度,并且被成形为沿着操作分支Q1的部分34b并沿着返回分支Q2的初始部分35b将半壳21b',21b保持在闭合位置;和
-相应的端部76,其从相应的主要部分75起根据滑架15a,15b沿着路径Q的前进方向行进以离轴线A渐增的距离延伸,并且被成形为沿着返回分支Q2的初始部分35b将半壳21b保持在闭合位置,并且在初始部分35b的端部36b处将半壳21b移动至打开位置中。
输送机11包括(图7):
入口站85,其在重力作用下接收在端部36b处由半壳21b排出的包装3;
-出口站(未示出),其与站85相对并且向未示出的折叠单元馈送;和
-操作分支87,其从入口站85平行于方向B延伸到出口站,并且在端部36b处与部分35b相切。
在所示的实施方式中,输送机11是带式输送机。
在使用中,管2沿轴线A前进,并且滑架14a',15a,14a和14b',15b,14b,14b沿着轨道13a,13b彼此独立地前进,如图1中的箭头所示。
特别地,滑架14a',15a,14a和14b',15b,14b可在轨道13a;13b上沿相应的路径P,Q自行移动。
以下参照仅仅一组滑架14a',14b,14a以及仅仅一组对应的滑架15a',15b,15a和仅仅一个通过使用由相应的滑架14a',14b',15a,15b;14a,14b承载的半壳21a',21b',密封元件22b和相对密封元件22a以及半壳21a,21b形成的包装3来描述单元1的操作。
滑架14a',14b';15a,15b;14a,14b首先沿相应的路径P,Q的相应的返回分支P2,Q2移动,然后沿相应的路径P,Q的相应的操作分支P1,Q1移动。
当滑架14a',14b';14a,14b沿着操作分支P1,Q1移动时,相应的半壳21a',21b';21a,21b平行于方向B并且在相应的打开位置和相应的闭合位置之间来回移动。
以非常相同的方式,当滑架15a,15b相应地沿着操作分支P1,Q1移动时,相应的相对密封元件22a和密封元件22b平行于方向B并且在相应的打开位置和相应的闭合位置之间来回移动。
特别地,沿着操作分支P1,Q1,半壳21a',21b'设置在相对密封元件21a和密封元件21b的上方,该相对密封元件21a和密封元件21b又被布置在半壳21a,21b的上方。
现在从一位置开始来描述单元1的操作,在该位置,沿着部分31a,31b,半壳21a',21b';21a,21b,相对密封元件22a和密封元件22b沿着相应的操作分支P1,Q1的相应的部分31a,31b位于相应的打开位置。
在这种情况下,半壳21a',21b',21a,21b,相对密封元件22a和相对密封元件22b与管2分离。此外,从壁28朝向轴线A行进,半壳21a,21b的翼片29从壁28散开。
沿着相应的操作分支P1,Q1的部分30a,30b,半壳21a,21b处于相应的闭合位置,而半壳21a',21b',相对密封元件22a和密封元件22b保持在相应的打开位置。
沿着相应的操作分支P1,Q1的部分32a,32b,半壳21a,21b保持在相应的闭合位置,而半壳21a',21b'到达相应的闭合位置。同时,相对密封元件22a和密封元件22b保持在相应的打开位置。
此外,沿着部分32a,32b,管2被布置在底部位置的半壳21a,21b约束,并且被布置在顶部位置的半壳21a',21b'朝向半壳21a,21b移动,而密封元件22b和相对密封元件22a仍处于相应的打开位置。
因此,半壳21a',21b的作用对于完成包装3的折叠是有效的。
沿着相应的操作分支P1,Q1的部分33a,33b,相对密封元件22a和密封元件22b处于闭合位置,其中半壳21a',21b';21a,21b仍然保持在相应的闭合位置。
因此,相对的半壳21a',21b';21a,21b的翼片29彼此面对并且限定平行六面体状的腔,该腔容纳管2的将形成包装3的部分。
密封元件22b被激活以将管2在其所期望的密封区域中热封,以便相对于重复印刷在管2上的图像在所期望的区域中形成包装3的横向密封带。
在横向密封带的密封期间,半壳21a',21b';21a,21b控制包装3的容积。
此外,切割元件23b被抽出直至接合支座,以便切割包装3的横向密封带,以将包装3与管2的其余部分分离。
沿着部分34a,34b,相对密封元件22a和密封元件22b处于相应的打开位置,半壳21a',21a处于打开位置,而半壳21b',21b保持在闭合位置。
结果,所形成的、密封的和切割开的包装3被半壳21b夹持并保持。
滑架14b沿着轨道13b的进一步的移动导致半壳21b沿着路径Q1的初始部分35b的相应运动。
当半壳21b到达Q1的部分35b的端部36b时,它从闭合位置移动到打开位置,从而将包装3与方向B相切地释放到输送机11的入口站85上,输送机11将包装3输送到未示出的折叠单元。
半壳21a',21b';21a,21b在相应的打开位置和闭合位置之间的运动通过滑架14a,14b的辊46,47在相应的凸轮表面71a,71b上的滚动来确定。
当滑架14a,14b沿着操作分支P1,Q1的相应部分31a,31b移动时,该运动从半壳21a',21b';21a,21b的打开位置开始描述。
由于辊46在凸轮表面71a,71b上的滚动运动,板42沿着相应的导向件43相对于相应的马达元件40和相应的臂41朝向轴A和管2移动。
结果,板42平行于方向B移动,从而导致相应的整个半壳21a',21b';21a,21b朝向管2位移直到使壁28接触管2的位置。
然后,辊47在相应的凸轮表面72a,72b上的滚动运动导致相应的板44相对于对应的板42平行于方向B朝向轴线A并且在未示出的导向件上移动。
结果,槽49朝向轴线A移动,导致辊50的转动以及翼片29从它们相对于壁28散开的位置转动,朝向管2行进直到到达它们与壁28正交并夹紧管2或密封包装3的位置。
在这个阶段,半壳21a',21b';21a,21b布置在相应的闭合位置。
半壳21a',21b';21a,21b从相应的闭合位置到相应的打开位置的运动由以下事实确定:首先相应的板44移动离开相应的板42并在相应的未示出的导向件上平行于方向B滑动,这样,翼片29旋转返回直至到达它们从壁28朝向轴线A行进从相应的壁28散开的位置。
由于板42移动远离管2,并且相对于相应的臂41沿着相应的导向件43平行于方向B滑动,因此半壳21a',21b';21a,21b的该运动完成。
半壳21a',21b';21a,21b朝向相应的闭合位置的这些运动通过作用在板42和板44上的未示出的弹簧来变得容易。
这样,整个半壳21a',21b';21a,21b移动离开管2,直至再次到达相应的打开位置。
相对密封元件22a和密封元件22b在相应的打开位置和闭合位置之间的运动通过滑架14a,14b的辊65在相应的凸轮表面73上的滚动来确定。
当相应的滑架15a,15b沿相应的操作分支P1,Q1移动时,从相对密封元件22a和密封元件22b的打开位置开始描述该运动。
由于辊65滚动到相应的凸轮表面73上,因此板62沿相应的导向件63平行于方向B并且相对于臂61和马达元件60朝着管2移动,直到在所期望的位置上接触管2以形成包装3的横向密封带。
在这个阶段,密封元件22b和相对密封元件22a被布置在相应的闭合位置。
密封元件22b和相对密封元件22a从相应的闭合位置到相应的打开位置的运动由以下事实确定:板62沿着相应的导向件63平行于方向B并在管2的相对侧上向后移动。
这种运动通过作用在板62上的未示出的弹簧来变得容易。
根据上述描述,根据本发明的形成组件10a,10b和方法的优点将是清楚的。
半壳21b沿着路径Q的部分Q2的部分34b相对于轴线A散开保持在相应的闭合位置,并且在端部36b处移位到相应的打开位置中,从而将包装3排出到输送机11上。
以这种方式,确保了即使在两个连续的切割和密封的包装3之间的连接桥的存在下,半壳21b的移动分离连续的密封包装3,从而将分离的包装2适当地传送到输送机11。
以这种方式,相对于基本上依赖于重力作用的已知解决方案将包装3分离且输送到输送机11上的更高精度和重复性。
显然,可以对本文所述和所示的形成组件10a,10b和方法进行改变,而不脱离所附权利要求书限定的范围。
特别地,形成组件10a,10b可以包括EP-B-0887265中所示类型的链式输送机,而不包括滑架14a,14b;15a,15b。
