Description

用于从包装材料片生产包装的包装机和方法
技术领域
本发明涉及一种用于从包装材料片生产包装的包装机。本发明还涉及一种从包装材料片生产包装的方法。
背景技术
众所周知，诸如果汁、巴氏灭菌或UHT(超高温处理)的牛奶、酒、番茄酱等许多食品在由无菌包装材料制成的包装中销售。
这种类型的包装的典型示例是称为Tetra Brik Aseptic(注册商标)的用于液体或可倾倒食品的平行六面体形状的包装，其通过折叠和密封层压条带包装材料而制成。
包装材料具有多层结构，所述多层结构基本上包括：用于刚度和强度的基层，所述基层可以包括纤维材料(例如纸)层或矿物填充的聚丙烯材料层；和覆盖基层的两侧的多个热密封塑料材料(例如，聚乙烯薄膜)层。
在用于长期储存产品(例如UHT牛奶)的无菌包装的情况下，包装材料还可以包括气体和光阻隔材料(例如铝箔或乙烯乙烯醇共聚物(EVOH)箔)层，其叠加在热密封塑料材料层上，并且又被形成包装的最终接触食品的内表面的另一热密封塑料材料层覆盖。
众所周知，这种包装是在全自动包装机上生产的，在该包装机上由幅材进给式包装材料形成连续的管。包装材料幅材在包装机上灭菌，例如，通过施加诸如过氧化氢溶液之类的化学灭菌剂，一旦灭菌完成，通过例如加热蒸发将化学灭菌剂从包装材料的表面除去。经如此灭菌的包装材料幅材被保持在封闭的无菌环境中，并被纵向折叠和密封以形成竖直的管。
将管用灭菌过的或无菌处理过的食品连续地向下充满，并且密封，然后沿着等间隔的横截面切割，以形成枕形包，可以将枕形包送入折叠单元以形成成品包装。
包装机可以包括模制工位，在该模制工位中，将熔融塑料模塑到包装材料幅材上，然后将其折叠、填充和密封，以便形成正在生产的包装的开启装置的倾倒口。
包装机包括工具，所述工具被布置用于在包装材料上执行工作操作以获得包装。
包装材料包括多个标记，每个标记与包装材料的必须进行上述工作操作之一的部分相关联。
包装机器包括传感器，其布置在固定的位置，读取标记并控制工具的位置。
已知的包装机的缺点在于，工具不能相对于包装材料的必须进行工作操作的相应部分进行适当的定位。这主要是由于包装材料的可变形性。具体地，包装材料可能在检测到标记的时间点和工具在包装材料的与标记相关联的部分处执行工作操作的时间点之间经历一定的变形。以这种方式，发生工具相对于包装材料的相应部分的错位，这会损害包装的生产。
传感器以不连续的方式读取标记，例如，当每个标记在传感器前通过时。
在两次连续的阅读操作中间，例如在两个连续标记的读数之间，包装材料的位置只能被预测或“猜测”。由于包装材料的变形或影响包装材料的动态事件(例如用待包装的食品填充包装材料的管)，包装材料的实际位置可能不同于预期的或“猜测的”位置。
发明内容
本发明的目的是改善已知包装机。
本发明的另一个目的是提供一种包装机，在该包装机中对包装材料执行工作操作的工具相对于包装材料以高精度定位。
在本发明的第一方面，提供了一种用于根据权利要求1所述的从包装材料片生产包装的包装机。
在本发明的第二方面，提供了一种根据权利要求10所述的从包装材料片生产包装的方法。
附图说明
将参考附图通过示例来描述本发明的一些优选的非限制性的实施方式，其中：
图1是根据本发明的用于从包装材料片生产包装的包装机的透视图，其中为了清楚起见去除了一些部分；
图2是图1的包装机的工作单元的示意性侧视图；
图3是图2的放大细节；
图4是图1的包装材料片的平面图；
图5是根据本发明的用于从包装材料片生产包装的包装机的成形和横向密封单元的侧视图；
图6是根据本发明的用于从包装材料片生产包装的包装机的施加单元的平面图。
具体实施方式
参考图1至图6，示出了一种用于由从卷轴(未示出)上退绕并沿着前进路径P馈送的包装材料3生产密封的包装2的包装机1，该密封的包装2包含可倾倒的食品，例如经巴氏灭菌的或UHT牛奶、果汁、酒等。当包装材料从卷轴上退绕时，其具有平坦片100的形状。
通过已知的引导元件、辊或类似设备(未示出)，使片100沿着前进路径P馈送通过灭菌单元(未示出)，在一个实施方式中，灭菌单元包括灭菌浴。
在另一个实施方式(未示出)中，灭菌单元可以包括其它灭菌设备，例如用低电压电子束照射包装材料3的灭菌设备。
使片100沿着前进路径P馈送通过室4(如图1中虚线所示)，片100在室4中被保持在无菌空气环境中。
室4包括顶部6和底部8，该顶部6与灭菌单元连通，并且在其中片100沿着竖直部分P1被引导，该底部8沿着部分P1自顶部6竖直延伸。
在底部8内部，使片100纵向折叠成圆筒以形成具有与部分P1同轴的纵向轴线A的连续竖直管9。
包装机1包括多个成形组件，在所示的实施方式中包括四个成形组件，即第一成形组件11、第二成形组件12、第三成形组件13和第四成形组件14，它们沿着位于室4内的部分P1定位，并且与片100相互作用以将片100逐渐地折叠成圆筒并且使片100的第一横向部分100a和片100的与第一横向部分100a相对的第二横向部分100b相互叠置，以形成管9。
包装机1还包括沿着部分P1位于第四成形组件14的下游的密封设备15(在图1中示意性地示出)，并且其设置成密封经叠置的第一横向部分100a和第二横向部分100b，以在管9中形成液密纵向密封。
管9通过在管9内部分地延伸并形成填充回路(未示出)的一部分的倾倒管道17用灭菌的或无菌加工的食品连续地填充。
包装机1还包括成形和横向密封单元5，其设置有成对的夹爪7，成对的夹爪7与管9相互作用，以沿等间隔的横截面密封和切割管9以形成包10。
包装机2还包括折叠单元(未示出)，在折叠单元中，包10经受连续的机械折叠操作以获得包装2。
包装机1还可以包括施加单元16，该施加单元16沿着路径P位于消毒单元的上游，所述施加单元16将开启装置施加到片100上。施加单元16方便地由用于模制塑料材料以形成开启装置的倾倒口42(图6)的工位限定，并且片材100通过所述工位逐步进给。在施加单元16的输出端，片100沿其中间纵向部分设置有一系列等间隔的口42。
包装材料3包括与包装材料3的相应部分21相关联的多个标记20。
在图4所示的实施方式中，包装材料3包括沿包装材料3的方向D一个接一个地布置的多个单元22，每个单元22旨在(一旦被折叠就)形成相应的包装2。在图4所示的实施方式中，每个单元22限定了相应的部分21。
单元22彼此相同；特别地，单元22在方向D上具有相同的长度。每个单元22可以具有一种图案：一旦包装材料3被折叠，该图案就构成包装2的外部装饰。
每个单元22可以包括折痕线23的图案，包装材料3在包装机1中沿折痕线23折叠以形成相应的包装2。特别地，所有单元22可具有相同图案的折痕线23。
每个标记20相对于相应的部分21布置在预定位置。
在上述单元22的情况下，标记20被布置在相对于折痕线23的相应的图案的预定位置。在这种情况下，标记20的位置提供了折痕线23的图案的位置的意义明确的指示。
在一个实施方式中，标记20可以是携带磁场的磁性标记。标记20可以通过在包装材料3上印刷装饰物时分布在包装材料3上的可磁化墨获得。墨随后例如当使包装材料3产生折痕时被磁化，在这种情况下，如上面所描述的，折痕线23的图案的位置与相应的标记20的位置匹配。
在另一个实施方式中，标记20是光学标记。标记20可以在包装材料3上印刷装饰物时获得。在这种情况下，装饰物的位置与相应标记20的位置相匹配。
参考图2和3，示出了包装机1的工作单元30，工作单元30包括轨道装置31和多个可沿着轨道装置31彼此独立移动的输送元件32。
轨道装置31容纳由多个可单独激励的螺线管(未示出)形成的定子电枢，并且输送元件32容纳永磁体(未示出)。
通过单独控制螺线管，输送元件32可独立地沿轨道装置31移动。
在另一个实施方式中，轨道装置31容纳永磁体，而输送元件32容纳可单独激励的螺线管。
每个输送元件32布置成用于支撑包装机1的工具40或设备，工具40或设备在包装材料3的相应部分21上进行一定的工作操作。
在图2和3所示的实施方式中，轨道装置31具有闭合环的形状并且包括工作部分34以及返回部分35，工具40由输送元件32承载沿着工作部分34与包装材料3相互作用。
每个输送元件32包括传感器设备33，传感器设备33被布置用于检测相应的标记20并且产生指示标记20的相对于输送元件32的位置的信号。
在标记20是磁性标记的情况下，传感器设备33包括磁性传感器。
在标记20是光学标记的情况下，传感器设备33包括光学传感器。
标记20可以是施加包装材料3的或与包装材料3相关联的或嵌入包装材料3中的任何类型的标记。
以相同的方式，传感器设备33可以是能够读取相应标记20的任何种类的传感器。
包装机1还包括控制单元(未示出)，该控制单元被布置成基于上述信号来控制输送元件32的沿着轨道装置31的位置。
特别地，传感器设备33检测标记20与输送元件32之间的距离，并将信号发送到控制单元。
控制单元基于该信号评估输送元件32的相对于承载标记20的包装材料3的部分21的实际位置R与输送元件32的相对于承载标记20的包装材料3的部分21的目标位置T之间的差。换句话说，控制单元计算实际位置R与目标位置T之间的距离d。
在实际位置R与目标位置T之间的差可能是由于包装材料3的可变形性造成的。
随后，控制单元沿着轨道装置31驱动输送元件32以使距离d最小化。换句话说，控制单元沿轨道装置31驱动输送元件32，使得实际位置R符合目标位置T。
参考图5，示出了其中工作单元30是包装机1的成形和横向密封单元5的实施方式。
成形和横向密封单元5包括多对可彼此独立移动的夹爪7。
在这种情况下，轨道装置31包括第一轨道31a和第二轨道31b，多个第一输送元件32a在第一轨道31a上是可移动的，多个第二输送元件32b在第二轨道31b上是可移动的。
第一轨道31a和第二轨道31b彼此平行并且布置在包装材料3的管9的相对侧上。
具体而言，每一对夹爪7包括由第一输送元件32a承载的第一夹爪7a和由第二输送元件32b承载的第二夹爪7b。
在一个实施方式中，第一夹爪7a支撑密封元件(未示出)，而第二夹爪7b支撑在操作期间与密封元件配合的反压元件(未示出)。
每个第一输送元件32a包括第一传感器设备33a。
每个第二输送元件32b包括第二传感器设备33b。
在操作期间，第一传感器设备33a和第二传感器设备33b检测与已经折叠成管结构的包装材料3的必须成形和密封的部分21相关联的标记20的位置。
控制单元评估第一输送元件32a(即第一夹爪7a)的实际位置R与第一输送元件32a(即第一夹爪7a)的目标位置T之间的差，并且沿第一轨道31a移动第一输送元件32a，以使实际位置R与目标位置T之间的距离d最小化。
以同样的方式，控制单元评估第二输送元件32b(即第二夹爪7b)的实际位置R与第二输送元件32b(即第二夹爪7b)的目标位置T之间的差，并且沿第二轨道31b移动第二输送元件32b，以使实际位置R与目标位置T之间的距离d最小化。
以这种方式，第一夹爪7a和第二夹爪7b相对于部分20被布置在正确的位置。这允许获得对包装材料3的良好的折叠和密封，并因此获得高质量的包装2。
参考图6，示出了一个实施方式，其中工作单元30是包装机1的施加单元16。
施加单元16包括可彼此独立移动的多个模具41.
在这种情况下，轨道装置31包括轨道31c，多个输送元件32c可在轨道31c上移动，每个输送元件32c支撑相应的模具。
每个输送元件32c包括传感器设备33c。
在操作期间，传感器设备33c检测标记20的与包装材料3的部分21相关联的位置，在该位置上将形成开口装置的口42。
控制单元评估输送元件32c(即，模具41)的实际位置R与输送元件32c(即，模具41)的目标位置T之间的差，并且使输送元件32c沿着轨道31c移动，以使实际位置R与目标位置T之间的距离d最小化。
这样，模具41相对于部分20布置在正确的位置。这允许在部分21的正确区域中模制熔化的塑料材料，并且因此获得高质量的口42。
由于每个输送元件32包括传感器设备33的事实，并且由于每个输送设备32可在轨道装置31上独立于其它输送设备32移动的事实，因此工具40可非常精确地相对于包装材料3的上面必须进行所需操作的部分21定位。另外，工具40相对于部分21的位置不受包装材料3的变形的不利影响。
显然，可以在不脱离所附权利要求所限定的本发明的范围的情况下对本文所述和所示的包装机进行改变。
