Abstract

Methods of sealing boxes by applying multiple lengths of box sealing tape on box flaps are described. The box may be of the type where the outermost pair of flaps (46) are shortened such that they do not meet each other when the flaps are folded toward each other and for boxes where the outermost pair of flaps do meet each other. A tape source (12) is provided that includes a cylindrical core assembly (40) that has an outer surface about which plural tape lengths (34, 36) are circumferentially wound. The cylindrical core assembly may either comprise a single core (40) or may comprise multiple cores (40a, b) that are attached to each other in a manner so that the multiple cores function in use as a single core. The methods of sealing boxes in accordance with this invention are carried out with box sealing tape (34, 36) used on a box sealing machine (10). In one method, a box (42, 44) is provided in its closed position to the box sealing machine (10) within the box guide path (24, 26). The tape source (12) supplies two lengths of adhesive tape (34, 36) to at least one taping head (14), which then provides the tape to the at least one application roller (31). In another method, the plural lengths of tape, whether from a common source or independent sources, are applied to a box surface by way of the same taping head (14) at the same time. In another method, the method includes the step of providing the tape source as a length of tape and includes splitting that tape length into plural tapes before application. Application could be provided by one or more taping heads.

Description

Method with sealing boxes with two adhesive tapes
Technical field
The present invention relates generally to the various methods of utilizing viscose glue to bring the sub-case lid of seal casing.The present invention be more particularly directed to utilize many adhesive tapes to seal the method for chest, described many adhesive tapes are on a plurality of case lids that are pasted on the chest side.
Background of the present invention
The maker of product and supplier usually were encapsulated in product in the shipping case before product is offered the client.Each shipping case can hold one or more products according to concrete purposes.In addition, this shipping case also will be convenient to loading and unloading, transports and stored prod, and can prevent damage of product, stolen and pollution.
Though can buy various types of shipping cases and shipping case material easily from the market, wherein a kind of the most frequently used container is corrugated fibre box or chest.Use for most shipment, this chest is not only economy but also have sufficient intensity normally, and can have different shape and size.But, in the chest of known type, the present invention is to provide the carboard of band rule fluting and have and shorten carboard case lid, the rule fluting.
First type the chest relevant with the present invention is the carboard of rule fluting.As shown in Figure 1, the carboard of rule fluting is rectangle normally, and comprises the vertical side of four adjacency and be positioned on chest top and the bottom, be called bigger case lid usually to the two pair case lids right with less case lid.Each case lid all links to each other with a vertical side wherein, therefore, when bigger case lid to less case lid towards each other direction and towards the direction at chest center when folding, join near the center of chest top and bottom mutually in all edges of bigger at least case lid, thereby formed chest top levels and bottom water plane effectively, and closed described chest.
The case lid that is positioned on the rule fluting carboard normally utilizes adhesive agent or pressure sensing adhesive band in position to locate to seal.This adhesive tape is usually pasted with " C-presss from both sides shape " or " L-presss from both sides shape " pattern, and this dual mode is well known in the prior art, and will be described below.
This C-folder shape strap clamp is to name because the cross-sectional plane of adhesive tape is the shape of letter " C ".Specifically, C-folder shape adhesive tape is a continuous adhesive tape, this adhesive tape sticking is enclosed in adjacent big case lid together on the part surface of chest one vertical side, across the center of crossing chest one horizontal surface, arrives the part surface of another vertical side of chest at last.In addition, this C-folder shape adhesive tape has usually is enough to the width pasted along the case lid of two adjacency, therefore, is positioned at the case lid of the outermost on chest top and the bottom or bigger case lid, case lid to all being sealed by an adhesive tape.When the carboard of rule fluting is closed, and during with C-folder shape rubber belt sealing, make pollutants arrive product or all products that is enclosed in the described chest with not having bigger gap.
This L-folder shape strap clamp is named because the cross-sectional plane of adhesive tape is the shape of capital letter " L ".Specifically, one L-folder shape adhesive tape comprises an adhesive tape, this adhesive tape is to be pasted on the part surface of a vertical side of described chest, and be pasted on the adjacent part of a horizontal surface of described chest, thereby effectively one or two the adjacent case lid on the horizontal surface is fixed on the vertical side of chest.The quantity that is pasted on the L-folder shape adhesive tape on the single chest can change according to the requirement that maker or supplier seal chest.
With utilize C-folder shape adhesive tape or L-folder shape adhesive tape to seal a relevant problem of the carboard of a rule fluting to be, when people open chest, need pierce through described adhesive tape usually with sharp-pointed instrument and near the article in the chest.A kind of new mode that can seal these chests can be opened these chests rapidly, easily, can save again that people open these chests and the plenty of time and the energy that spend.
But under many circumstances, maker or supplier mainly are to use a shipping case that a plurality of products are contained in the single shipping case; Therefore, the primary and foremost purpose of chest is not to prevent that all products in the chest are impaired, stolen and contaminated.In these situations, can the providing of rule fluting carboard than the needed more protection of all products.And because the price of chest is directly relevant with the quantity of the raw MAT'L that is used for making chest (for example fluting board), so the slot expense of carboard of service regeulations may not be very high concerning those do not need totally-enclosed their the chest user of product.
In order to consider these problems, chest maker has made chest another kind of type, relevant with the application: a kind of have case lid shortening or that " shrinking back " is bigger to less case lid carboard right, regular fluting, when chest was in closed condition, described case lid was not to being in contact with one another.On the contrary, when chest is in closed condition, bigger case lid to and less case lid between a gap is arranged.Such chest obviously uses less raw MAT'L, thereby corresponding the reduction made the cost of chest, and has finally reduced the quantity of the waste that the treatment box period of the day from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m produced.The cost of the manufacturing chest through reducing forwards maker subsequently again to or buys the supplier of this chest; Finally, the cost of saving is transferred to the customer of all product of shipment in these chests subsequently again.
Chest with case lid of shortening normally carries out leak free with the hot adhesion agent, and this hot adhesion agent is applied to each intersection of bigger case lid and less case lid when box closure.Though the hot adhesion agent is enough to seal chest, hot adhesion agent dispensing devices needs to operate very carefully in use, and all adhesive agent nozzles usually need higher service expenditure.
These methods of chest with case lids of shortening of another kind of sealing are that two C-folder shape sealing tapes are pasted on bigger case lid to last, and make and all be pasted with a C-folder shape sealing tape on this each case lid to case lid.For example, paste two as everyone knows from the C-in two independent adhesive tape sources (being tape roll) folder shape adhesive tapes, every adhesive tape source is installed on the independent application head of a cartoning sealing machine.One of them shortcoming with cartoning sealing machine of a plurality of application heads is: the cost that is used for the adhesive tape sticking equipment on these cartoning sealing machines has a cartoning sealing machine for band source and application head than those and comes highly.And; have in two normal operation at one for the wrapping machine in band source; when a tape roll is used up or ruptured and need change with a new tape roll time; the operator may change that tape roll of having used up and another tape roll simultaneously; thereby when another tape roll was used up, he or she needn't shut down once more.This operation usually can slattern a large amount of adhesive tapes.
Utilization such as manual unit and automatically and the various devices of S. A. cartoning sealing machine etc., with a sealing tape with C-press from both sides shape, L-presss from both sides shape or common being pasted on all chests of other shape is well-known.Yet, in packaging industry, still be necessary to improve the seal casing submethod.

Cartoning sealing machine 10 comprises that a described base 16 and a mat supporting mechanism 18 are with respect to described base 16 and fixing upper supporting part 17.Described upper supporting part 17 preferably vertically links to each other with described base 16 with described supporting mechanism 18 adjustablely, and described bracing or strutting arrangement can be made common fore-and-aft adjustment (not shown), to adapt to the chest of differing heights.Described upper supporting part 17 is supporting described application head 14, and described application head preferably is connected on the adhesive tape supporting member 20.Described adhesive tape supporting member 20 is supporting described adhesive tape source 12 again, and described adhesive tape source is that core 22 of mat rotatably is installed with, as common known.
According to shown in embodiment, forwarder 24 and 26 has formed a chest passage along described base 16 directions, described forwarder is suitable for comprising motion one object on the cylinder 28 that rolls bed 30 at all, and through described application head 14, more particularly, be that doubling roller 31 and buffing roll 32 with described application head 14 comes in contact.The service condition of this transport sector also considers to adopt other automatic or manual, present known or follow-on transmitting device in the art by fine understanding.
In an illustrated embodiment, also has a device that is used for determining the adhesive tape path, this device comprises and is installed in all guiding rollers 33 of described application head 14 in-to-ins that these guiding rollers are used for described application head 14 is passed in the adhesive tape guiding from described adhesive tape source 12, and are directed to described doubling roller 31.For Continuous pressing device for stereo-pattern, the connection mode and the mode of operation of described doubling roller 31 and buffing roll 32 are well-known, and at aforesaid U.S. Patent No.5, complete description are arranged in 228,943.Application head 14 preferably includes all guiding rollers 33, and these guiding rollers have been determined the path of described adhesive tape with described doubling roller 31, and can also help to control the tensile force of adhesive tape.In an illustrated embodiment, application head 14 just is positioned at the top of the chest passage at chest top, is used for sealing the top of chest; But another doubling roller 14 normally is arranged in the roller bed 30, as what installed usually, thus also can be with the bottom of adhesive tape sticking in chest.In addition, in the present invention, application head and all rollers also can consider to adopt other various structures and position, such as the below of the top that a plurality of application heads is arranged on described chest passage, chest passage or be positioned at the above and below of chest passage.Also can consider to adopt the side direction sealing device.
Described cartoning sealing machine 10 normally is used for rectangular chest or carboard, and this rectangle chest or carboard comprise that vertical surface before, a back vertical surface, two vertical side and two pairs are arranged on chest top and the bottom, case lid positioned opposite to each other.In order to close the top of described chest, for example normally that first case lid is right, just less case lid hereinafter is right, and direction towards each other is folding.Subsequently, second case lid is right, and just bigger case lid hereinafter is right, and direction towards each other is folding.In described preferred embodiment, described bigger case lid is to constituting the top, horizontal surface and the bottom level surface of chest effectively.Though more than described a kind of typical chest, but the present invention also can consider to adopt other box construction illustrated, have more than four or be less than the chest of four sides such as use, and the chest and other analogue that on the top of described chest and bottom, only have a pair of case lid.
When box closure, the right hithermost edge of bigger case lid is or almost is when contacting each other, usually described chest is called the carboard of rule fluting.Shown in Figure 1 as prior art, usually with the carton design of described rule fluting and manufacture: when box closure, shown in that between the hithermost edge of case lid basically without any spacing.But, because manufacturing errors or chest overload, therefore, when chest is in its closed condition, between two case lids, may form a little gap along the length direction of two edges, perhaps described case lid can overlap each other slightly.
Cartoning sealing machine 10 of the present invention can also be used to deliberately making shortly or the chest of " shrink back " in those case lids applying adhesive tape.Such chest design also manufactures: the length of their all case lids is less than the length of all case lids of rule fluting carboard, therefore when all case lids direction towards each other folds, each opposed bigger case lid to and the right hithermost two edges of less case lid between will be formed with a sizable gap wittingly.Perhaps, we can say also that when chest was in closed condition, all was to contact each other to case lid.Therefore, compare, can think that all case lids are " shortening " or " shrinking back " case lids with the carboard of rule fluting.The present invention is particularly suitable for being used in the carboard of rule fluting or has the rule fluting carboard of shorter case lid, and those will be all on shorter case lid and all chests that the case lid that does not shorten is combined use together.
Fig. 2, Fig. 3 a and Fig. 3 b show the preferred embodiment in described adhesive tape source 12, wherein, according to an aspect of the present invention, adhesive tape source 12 comprises two sealing tapes adjacent one another are 34 and 36, and described two sealing tapes are wound on the circumference of outside face 38 of a cylinder core assembly 40.Though the length of the length of sealing tape 34 and/or width and sealing tape 36 and/or width can be different,, the length of each sealing tape 34,36 preferably all is identical.Below the method for making a kind of like this tape roll is described.Sealing tape particularly has Scotch TMTrade mark, product code numbering are 372 and 373 sealing tape, comprise a underlying membrane, are coated with a layer binder on the side of described underlying membrane.Below be the inventory of a nonuniqueness of traditional polymeric base layer film, this inventory has comprised that all can be suitable for use as the material of adhesive tape bottom: the copolymer and the ethene of polypropylene (BOPP), polyvinylchloride (PVC), propylene and the ethene of polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester (such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET)), biaxial orientation and have the copolymer of the alkene of four or more carbon atom.
In addition, can be used in suitable adhesive agent in the sealing tape of the present invention normally based on following general composition: polyacrylates; Polyvinylether; The rubber that contains diene is such as natural rubber, polyisoprene and poly-butadiene; Styrene butadiene rubbers; Poly-meric 2-chlorobutadiene; Butyl rubber; Butadiene-acrylonitrile polymer; Themoplasticity neoprene block copolypeptide, such as styrene-isoprene (SI) and styrene-isoprene-phenylethene (SIS) abaculus copolymer, styrene-butadiene (SB) and s-B-S poly-mer (SBS), and ethylene/propene and ethene-butylene-diene polymer, such as styrene-ethylene/propylene-styrene (SEPS) and styrene-ethylene/butylene-styrene (SEBS); Poly-alpha-olefin; Unbodied polyolefin; Silicone; The copolymer that contains ethene, such as the ethyleneacetic acid vinyl acetate, ethyl propylene acetoacetic ester, and EMA; Polyurethane; Polyamide; Epoxy resin; Polyvinyl pyrrolidone and vinylpyrrolidone copolymers; Polyester; And the compound of above-mentioned composition.Select for use multiple components in these compositions to give the various particular characteristics of these adhesive agents and need utilize well-known in the art method to be cross-linked with each other or to handle (curing).In addition, all adhesive agents can comprise various additives, such as tackifier, plasticizer, stabilizer, therapeutic and solvent.
In addition, be preferably on the opposite side of described bottom a kind of low-viscosity back side be set, therefore, when with described adhesive tape from a tape roll during unwinding, described adhesive tape can more easily separate with described tape roll.This coating and/or processing are well-known, if they are suitable for being used in the required adhesive tape structure, and so can both be with in the present invention.
Now see also Fig. 3 a, the figure shows the cutaway view of adhesive tape source 12 preferred embodiments, described adhesive tape source has a cylinder core assembly 40, and described interior core assembly comprises a single inner core member, and two adjacent adhesive tapes 34 and 36 are wound on the outside face 38 of described single inner core member.More particularly, though the present invention can adopt any known or improved inner core material, described cylinder core assembly 40 is preferably made by jute board or plastic pipe.
Fig. 3 b show described adhesive tape source 12 ' another embodiment, wherein said cylinder core assembly 40 comprises two inner core member 40a and 40b.Each inner core member 40a and 40b preferably have an adhesive tape 34 and 36 that is wound on its outside face 38a or 3 8b respectively.These two inner core member 40a and 40b have formed a single interior core assembly together, so they can axially combine on the position adjacent rotatably.For described two inner core member being locked together rotatably, can utilize such as glue, fastener or other analogue both directly are fixed together, perhaps can utilize indirect method to be fixed together on their functions, issuable external force when installing such as utilization is such as clip or the chuck on each side of two inner core member.Perhaps, described two inner core member can lock together indirectly by making adhesive tape 34 and 36 be rolled into the form of tape roll.The manufacturing process of this manufacturing tape roll usually makes adhesive agent shift towards the outer rim of the adhesive tape that is rolled into all volumes, and axially adjacent tape roll may bond and mutually without any need for the auxiliary device that they are fixed together.In any situation, when being installed in inner core member 40a and 40b on the adhesive tape supporting member 20, described two inner core member have been effects of core assembly in.Though in each accompanying drawing, do not illustrate especially, but, still should consider: when being installed in adhesive tape 34 and 36 on the cylinder core assembly 40, between the adhesive tape 34 and 36 of reeling, have spacing, perhaps, according to concrete condition of service, the adhesive tape that is installed on the cylinder core assembly 40 can be more than two adhesive tapes.
Now, the concrete applicable cases of applying adhesive tape on all chests is described utilizing cartoning sealing machine 10 of the present invention in conjunction with Fig. 2.At first, the adhesive tape source 12 that will comprise adhesive tape 34 and 36 is rotatably installed on the axle core 22 of adhesive tape supporting member 20, as shown in Figure 2.According to some method of the present invention, can as described above adhesive tape source 12 be arranged to: many adhesive tapes are installed one in single on the core assembly, perhaps can be arranged to: tape roll a plurality of independent rotations and/or that install with respect to application head or all application heads.
In the embodiment shown in Figure 2, adhesive tape 34 and 36 passes same application head 14 and arrives described doubling roller 31 along described adhesive tape path, with adhesive tape sticking on a chest.Described adhesive tape path preferably includes passes the guide path (not shown) that application head 14 (when using an application head 14) is separated from each other, therefore when adhesive tape 34 and 36 being pasted on the described chest case lid, adhesive tape 34 and 36 is to arrive doubling roller 31 each other dividually.For example, described doubling roller 31 can comprise a roller as described above, perhaps can comprise a plurality of rollers that are provided with shoulder to shoulder on one or more.In addition, by fully independently a guidance system or an individual system are provided, can adhesive tape 34 and 36 be separated each other in application head 14 inside, described individual system comprises any known separation and guidance device, such as the roller with side extension, these side extensions can be along the desirable adhesive tape route guidance adhesive tape 34 and 36 of adhesive tape 34 and 36.
In an illustrated embodiment, with a cardboard chest 42 that a rule fluting is arranged that is in closed condition, offer cartoning sealing machine 10 with the direction of arrow A.Application head 14 will be directed to doubling roller 31 from the adhesive tape 34 and 36 in adhesive tape source 12, and this doubling roller is with the side with viscosity of adhesive tape 34 and the 36 preceding vertical surface towards described chest 42 subsequently.Though adhesive tape source 12 preferably includes one many adhesive tapes is supplied in the adhesive tape inner core of an application head, as above-mentioned described,, described adhesive tape source 12 also can comprise two adhesive tape inner cores of independent rotation toward each other.
When forwarder 24 and 26 along the chest passage from rolling bed on 30 during mobile chest 42, the preceding vertical surface of chest 42 contacts with 36 with adhesive tape 34 on being positioned at doubling roller 31.Subsequently, be enough to adhesive tape sticking under the effect of the application force on the chest 42, described doubling roller 31 is pressed on the front end of adhesive tape 34 and 36 on the chest 42.When chest 42 continues when the chest passage moves, adhesive tape continues 12 releases from the adhesive tape source under the effect of application head 14, and doubling roller 31 is under the effect of chest 42, move up in application head 14 inside along its supporting guide path, and vertically moves towards the plane, top of chest along the preceding vertical surface of chest 42.In addition, after doubling roller 31 pastes adhesive tape 34 and 36, buffing roll 32 rolls through that section adhesive tape 34 and 36 of up-to-date stickup, thereby the adhesive tape on the chest 42 described planes is flattened, described buffing roll preferably is connected in application head 14 pivotly, and resemble common known mat one bindiny mechanism's (not shown) be connected with described doubling roller.Usually, adhesive tape 34 and 36 is only to be pasted on a part of surface of chest 42 preceding vertical surface.
Adhesive tape 34 and 36 is pasted on chest 42 to small part on the vertical surface and after described doubling roller 31 moved to the corner on the preceding vertical surface of chest 42 and top, horizontal surface, next, utilize the smooth effect of doubling roller 31 and buffing roll 32, adhesive tape 34 and 36 is pasted on the top, horizontal surface of chest 42. Adhesive tape 34 and 36 is pasted on chest 42 to small part top, horizontal surface, can use a common cutter sweep (not shown) to cut off described adhesive tape.If before the entire top horizontal surface that adhesive tape 34 and 36 is pasted on chest 42, cut off adhesive tape 34 and 36,, therefore, be commonly referred to L-is pressed from both sides the shape adhesive tape sticking on described chest because the shape of cross section of adhesive tape section resembles letter " L ".In addition, adhesive tape 34 and 36 is not cut off in the process that pastes chest 40 top levels.And before the adhesive tape device to be cut was cut off, doubling roller 31 can stick on two continuous adhesive tapes 34 and 36 part, entire top horizontal surface of the preceding vertical surface of chest 42 and at least on the part of back vertical surface.When Continuous pressing device for stereo-pattern by this way,, pasted " C-presss from both sides shape " adhesive tape so be commonly referred to chest because the cross-sectional plane of this section adhesive tape is similar to letter " C ".
Though top explanation relates to preceding vertical surface, top levels and the back vertical surface that adhesive tape is pasted continuously chest 42 particularly.But should be appreciated that these narrations also can be used for adhesive tape sticking on other vertical surface of chest 42, on the end horizontal surface of chest 42, and/or with top described different order Continuous pressing device for stereo-pattern.In addition, cartoning sealing machine can press from both sides L-the adhesive tape sticking of shape, C-folder shape or L-folder shape and the combination of C-folder shape on chest 42.Also can imagine and on same chest 42, carry out a plurality of paste operations simultaneously.
The another kind of pattern of illustrated embodiment be one to similar cartoning sealing machine 10 shown in Figure 2, wherein application head 14 comprises two application heads that are separated from each other, thereby makes each application head can be respectively applied in adhesive tape 34 and 36 one.The cartoning sealing machine sticking operation that adhesive tape 34 and 36 is pasted on an application head of sticking operation and above-mentioned usefulness of chest 42 with two application heads that are separated from each other is similar.In addition, when a cartoning sealing machine 10 has two application heads that are separated from each other, the adhesive tape source 12 that this one public interior core assembly is provided with two adhesive tapes 34 and 36 can be installed on the application head, therefore, adhesive tape wherein can be fed to the described application head that the adhesive tape source is installed on it, another adhesive tape can be given and deliver to another application head.Perhaps, the described public adhesive tape source 12 that comprises two adhesive tapes 34 and 36 can be installed on the cartoning sealing machine 10, in described two application heads all independently on the position, thereby two adhesive tapes can be delivered on two application heads that are separated from each other.In addition, it is contemplated that, if adhesive tape source 12 has the adhesive tape more than two on a cylinder core assembly 40, as indicated above, described cartoning sealing machine 10 can have the cooresponding application head of quantity, and described adhesive tape source 12 can be installed in subsequently wherein on any one application head, perhaps be installed on the described cartoning sealing machine 10 and all separate with all application heads.
