Description

Cut out the method and apparatus of material package envelope tobacco products with packing

The present invention relates to a kind of method of claim 1 preamble and the device of claim 5 preamble.

At first being interpreted as that with above-mentioned relevant tobacco article the packing of cigarette, its cigarette pack are is that one group cigarette packets is dressed up alleged one being generally 10 boxes.But the cigarette bar or other article that also relate to rigid package.

Described packing generally be by the carton that is suitable for packing, carboard, cardboard, plastics or analogue make have a pull cut out material firmly.

Common 10 boxes that one or more packings of packing cigarette are cut out material package dress are one group cigarette pack, obtain large scale thus and pack or be called the packing of cigarette bar, its packing have the material of cutting out of pull to constitute by processing in advance, one-sided at least, it is cut out material and has and the cooresponding longitudinal side in the longitudinal side of packaging group, with cooresponding of positive side with at least on the longitudinal edge of longitudinal side and the commissural flange on the positive lateral edges to the longitudinal side of small part.Its longitudinal side and commissural flange limit each other by the fold line that the preferred roll-in in advance with deliquescing commonly used goes out, and surround the folding of packaging group with simplification, and obtain to limit the packing rib.Cut out setting, distribution and the size of material fold line may be exactly corresponding to the rib of packaging group.

In order to cut out material encapsulated groups packing material with these, its group packing material will be cut out given first longitudinal side motion of material relatively and move in the supporting that folds revolving meber with cutting out material, the material package of cutting out that take the shape of the letter U this moment lives in three of packaging group, and bend by wrap direction at the fold line that limits first longitudinal side, affact on the rib significantly cutting out the power of expecting deflection in the deformation process front side by its packaging group.

In order to reduce the effect of this power, the disclosed material of cutting out is bent at independent bending station and falls the material of cutting out that is bending and deliver to supply station with packaging group among the DE 4308659, this can its packaging group unclamp when pushing the supporting of folding revolving meber, and improved greatly cut out material bending and will bend cut out the required structure space expense that pushes away before the material, DE 3333053 A, disclosed device has the port spare of an importing packaging group that is made of forming tool, its port spare with cut out the motion of the relative together shaped object of material, it is cut out material and bends on two fold lines, because folding the intersecting of its instrument and shaped object produces motion each other between the spigot surface, can and cut out at spigot surface like this and produce relative motion between the material, this disadvantageous sport infringement outward appearance, the pull side of particularly cutting out material.

The another kind of method and apparatus that the objective of the invention is to the above-mentioned type.

The purpose of the above-mentioned type method of the present invention is that the technical scheme that the feature by claim 1 provides realizes, the purpose of the above-mentioned type device of the present invention is to realize by the technical characterictic in claim 5 characteristic.The further improvement of the inventive method and device and useful embodiment are included in dependent claims 2 to 4 or 6 to 13.

Method and technology feature by

claim

2 and 3 has realized, cuts out material and not only bends on the fold line that limits first side, and be easy to bend on another longitudinal folding line.It is reliable that the further method of claim 4 connects packing, this be since when vertically packing connects each other faying surface wrap direction in relevant fold line upper edge and has bent, may cause packing the folding power of unclamping after having avoided thus also having reduced as far as possible to pack packaging group.

Further device in the claim 6 of the present invention and 7 provides the bending of cutting out material to carry out on the folding rib that is provided with exactly.Prevented to cut out relative motion between material upper surface and the fold mechanism by folded sheet as the structure of fold mechanism in the claim 8, the material when having guaranteed to cut out the material bending is saved to reduce wear.Because the front side of folded sheet places on the upper surface of cutting out the material longitudinal side in large area, its bending is evenly carried out, thereby is easy to form flawless packing.Claim 10 and 11 has provided the present invention and has further installed, and carries out the bending that another cuts out the longitudinal folding rib of material in simple as far as possible mode.Also adopt folded sheet to be used for the lateral surface that links to each other with the 3rd side with second side of cutting out material, on all longitudinal folding lines, reasonably bend operation as Foldable tool.According to claim 12 and 13, the parts of folded piece also can be used as the parts of cutting out the material supporting, are easy to the rational in infrastructure of device like this.

The invention has the advantages that, can improve the quality of producing the cigarette bar, it obtains like this, folding on fold line can reduce material stress and its folding can repeating in a rational position, by reduced to cut out material package packing load to article when folding on the packaging group thing in the bending in advance of cutting out material on all longitudinal folding lines, thereby the danger that has reduced the article distortion or damaged, the product design of Ti Gaoing in addition.The present invention has eliminated the relatively moving and sliding between the side of indulging of cutting out material of fold mechanism and definite finished product packaging external appearance when pre-bending, so that avoid scratch and polishing scratch, this is for the meaning that has particular importance with responsive packing connection with wrapping of piece.All longitudinal folding lines of cutting out material according to the present invention bend simultaneously, thereby simplified operation, the packaging quality of longitudinal side can't go wrong simultaneously, cutting out the outer longitudinal side bending opposite with having wrapped direction of material eliminates, relevant folding heavily stressed, thereby prevented the screen resilience that the influence packing connects, thereby eliminated because the flicking of the packing that causes along the surplus material stress on overlapping limit, longitudinal side.
