In the machine pattern of being discussed, expand continuous banded packing from reels of material earlier, by gluing station and cutting work station, it is sent to multiple package position then, there group products is packaged.
At the gluing station operation that continuous band carries out is generally comprised: by a horizontal Jiao Dao that can form with respect to the gluer that band does to move, and a series of vertical Jiao Dao that forms by fixing gluer, fixedly gluer dispense adhesive when packing launch and advance.Laterally the position of Jiao Dao should make that when packing were divided into the monolithic plate, the limit of every plate can be connected to form the packing box of a tubulose.
Two side areas along packing applies vertical Jiao Dao, makes cross sections in this zone then, so that produce tongue piece and edgefold, then they is flattened, and comes the two ends of enclose box.
There is some shortcoming in this technology.
At first, owing to after gluing, open otch, thereby used blade may be stained with the adhesion agent that is coated on the band.
The blade of having been made dirty by adhesion agent itself can cling packing then, hinders or even interrupts passing through of packing.In addition, if for a certain reason, as the pause of manufacturing line, must suspend the work of wrapping machine, then gluing but the material that also do not form packing box all must be scrapped, because in long work withholding period, adhesion agent is inevitable dry.Owing to lack the existing space that holds gluer, be difficult to after packing cut, remake the plastic emitting road particularly vertical Jiao Dao conversely speaking.
The method that the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of packaging product, it can eliminate above-mentioned shortcoming.
Above-mentioned purpose is realized by a method of the present invention, this method can be group products, particularly cigarette case package is in groups become the packing box of complete closed, each packing box is essentially parallelepiped shape, it has first and second interareas, two sides and two end faces the method is characterized in that it has comprised following operation: send packing to along predetermined feeding route; Transversely line of cut cuts packing periodically, whenever cuts and once produces a monolithic plate with associated transverse limit; Packing are applied adhesive material, make adhesion agent on the x wire substantially parallel with line of cut, be distributed in one of two widthwise edges of plate near; Every plate is wrapped on the relevant group products, its both sides is connected, make a tubular wrapping box, its longitudinally both ends open formed relevant tabs outside the outstanding product; Adhesive material is coated on the inner face of at least one edgefold, and flattens edgefold and cover end face, and obtain the packing box of a complete sum complete closed.
The present invention also relates to be packaged into a kind of equipment of set product.
According to the present invention, adopt a kind of equipment group products, particularly cigarette case package becomes the packing box of complete closed in groups, packing box is parallelepiped shape substantially, have first and second interareas, two sides and two end faces, this equipment is characterised in that it has comprised: a device of sending packing along predetermined feeding route to; One first cutter sweep, it periodically transversely line of cut packing are divided into monolithic plate with associated transverse limit; One first gluer, it is connected on the back of cutter sweep along feed direction, it transversely the bundle of lines adhesive material be coated on the packing, make every plate near one of two widthwise edges, be coated with glue; A multiple package position, it can make every plate wrap on the relevant group products, and makes a tubular wrapping box, its longitudinally both ends open form associated end tabs outside the outstanding product; In addition, a folding device, it is connected on the back of multiple package position along feed direction, it is the tubular wrapping box sent here in proper order of admittance periodically, and transmit between position and the delivery position accepting, folding device has been equipped second gluer, and it can be coated in adhesive material on one of the tabs of each open end of packing box at least, folding device has also been equipped folder, and the edgefold that they can flatten packing box covers end face.
Referring now to accompanying drawing, describe the present invention in detail with example, wherein:
Represented to be packaged into the equipment of set
product 19 with reference to accompanying drawing 1,1, it does as a whole, combines with the part of
wrapping machine 100, and packing 3 along this part by predetermined feeding route 4 forward.Haul packing 3 by one group of pinch roll 5, and it is guided to first cutter sweep 6 forward with positive 3a and back side 3b.In institute's example, cutter sweep 6 has comprised the rotary cylinder 7 that
blade 8 is housed, and it cooperatively interacts with another
fixed blade 9 that provides at packing 3 back side 3b.Cutter sweep 6 cuts off packing 3 periodically and is divided into
plate 2 along the line of cut of representing with T, and every plate produces relevant widthwise edge thus, considers and the relation of predetermined feeding route 4, identifies with
base 2i and
top margin 2s.
Measure between

Lateral incision 11 makes up in pairs, the
transverse region 2 that formation is cut ', be
tongue piece 13 to call it in the following text, it has connectionless three limits and amounts to the bonded assembly limit with one with 2 one-tenth of plates.In
multiple package position 15, the
first push rod 15a is along the predetermined feeding route by 15 ' expression, and advance forward from dead position by the direction that F3 represents, because the effect of push rod, the
group products 19 that order is sent here advances forward, on
relevant plate 2, whenever hit once successively, plate is wrapped on the product foldedly, and form " U " shape.In
case push rod 15a is along forwards having finished a stroke to F3, and F4 gets back to its initial rest position in opposite direction, the
top margin 2s and the
base 2i of
plate 2 just connect together, or rather, along being coated with the limit that tree lace G scribbles
adhesive material 16 inside, contact with another limit is overlapping, form the
packing box 23 of a tubulose thus, it have first 26, the second 27 with two
relative sides 38; This moment two of
packing box 23, vertically
end 28 still was an opening, gave prominence to
outside box 19 to be packaged in groups with given distance.In this example, carrying out the device that this packaging process adopted is conventional equipment, not expression in the drawings.
After above-mentioned packaging process, along predetermined feeding route 4 ',
tubular wrapping box 23 is sent to forward, feeding route 4 ' parallel with the original feeding route 4 of packing 3, and along above-mentioned F3 direction to the reach distance,
tubular wrapping box 23 is sent in the
folding device 40, and
folding device 40 surpasses at
multiple package position 15 along feed direction, comes two
open ends 28 of
enclose box 23 by it.
Each
open end 28 of
packing box 23 forms a
continuous U-shaped edgefold 39, and a
tongue piece 13, and
tongue piece 13 is separated with this
edgefold 39 mutually by above-mentioned
lateral incision 11, and is provided by zone 2 ' institute that
cutter sweep 10 produces on plate 2.Edgefold 39 comprised from second 27 of
tubular wrapping box 23
core 39 that extends ', and 38 two
side direction parts 39 of extending from two sides respectively "; and
tongue piece 13 extends from first 26 of
packing box 23, and basically with this face in same plane.
As depicted in figs. 1 and 2,
folding device 40 comprises a
cylinder 20, it and
relevant axle 29 usefulness keys connection, and several
radial slots 21 are provided, and groove is separated from each other with same angular distance, and each groove proportionately holds a packing box 23.
Axle 29 is designed to can be around the intermittent rotation of its axis 29 ' do, make
cylinder 20 rotate (being anticlockwise shown in the figure) along the direction that F8 represents, thereby
groove 21 orders are replaced on two positions: at first being the position of accepting
packing box 23 from
multiple package position 15, is that above-mentioned
packing box 23 is delivered to the position of sending outside on the
conveyer belt 35 then.
At Fig. 1, in 2 and 4 the example,
cylinder 20 has comprised 90 ° four
grooves 21 of being separated by separately, and the bottom surface of each groove forms an
opening 37, and its size is less than the respective surfaces size of
tubular wrapping box 23.
When
groove 21 is in when accepting the position and accepting
packing box 23, it along relevant feeding route 4 ', with perpendicular with a pair of first fixed fold devices of 30 expressions, the first fixed fold device is between
multiple package position 15 and
groove 21, and is and consistent with the relative vertically two
ends 21a of groove.
From Fig. 1, can know in 2 and 4 and see, the position of each fixed
fold device 30 makes with the
open end 28 of
corresponding packing box 23 and engages, this moment,
packing box 23 was along feeding route 4 ' forward, and entering in the
relevant groove 21, like this, when in the
packing box 23 complete insertion grooves, the
core 39 of above-mentioned each continuous edgefold 39 ' will be with direction bending shown in the F5 arrow among Fig. 1, and on the associated end face of
group products 19, flatten,
relevant tongue piece 13 is towards the vertical direction bending, and is basically perpendicular to first 26 of
packing box 23, the
inner face 22 of tongue piece is towards fixed
fold device 30, and partly contacts with it.Particularly, since each fixed
fold device 30 for the
core 39 of associated end tabs 39 ' effect, two less side direction tabs have been produced, its profile is trapezoidal substantially, rotation direction F8 with respect to
cylinder 20, identify them with
back tabs 14 and preceding
tabs 17, and the effect of fixed
fold device 30 also make
tongue piece 13 remain on first 26 of
packing box 23 vertical substantially above-mentioned position on, at least when
cylinder 20 time-outs be like this when accepting the position.
A pair of
movable folder 31 also becomes the part of
folding device 40, they are connected on the back of fixed
fold device 30 along feed direction, separately alongside on two
vertical end 21a that are in the
groove 21 of accepting the position, when they suspended in
cylinder 20 motions, the rear side of each
packing box 23 that flattening is sent here in proper order was to tabs 14.Two
movable folder 31 are from dead position, do to front travel along direction shown in the F6 earlier, engage to
tabs 14 with each rear side this moment, and make it bend towards core 39 ' (core 39 ' flatten on the end face of
group products 19 earlier) of edgefold 39,
folder 31 is return stroke along direction shown in the F7 then, returns dead position.
Folding device 40 also comprises fixing
spiral folder 24, it be positioned at
cylinder 20 two
longitudinal terminal surface 20a near,
packing box 23 accept extend between position and the delivery position, its scope is substantially equal to the angular distance that
cylinder 20 rotates a step-length.
From geometrical point, each fixedly
spiral folder 24 can regard 1/4th of a tubular ring approx as, reverse 90 ° of shapes after the angle at the longitudinal axis along himself.
In fact,
single folder 24 is made up of double-
type screw element 24a and 24b, they are respectively external component and interior element, stretch in parallel to each other and combine a
gap 24c is provided, when equipment 1 work, or say so more accurately when
cylinder 20 rotates,
gap 24c can hold the part of packing box, make that the
tongue piece 13 of respective end tabs of each
packing box 23 slides along
gap 24c this moment, its
inner face 22 faces toward inside spin element 24b.From Fig. 2, can see clearly, each
spiral folder 24 combines with
cylinder 20, one of its extreme end limit 24 ' close, and another
extreme end limit 24 with corresponding
vertical end 21a at
first groove 21 of accepting to stop on the position " close with corresponding
vertical end 21a of
second groove 21 that on delivery position, stops; Limit 24 ' the position be radially basically along
cylinder 20, so can correctly introduce
gap 24c to
tongue piece 13, and the
other end 24 " the position be arranged essentially parallel to the
pivot center 29 of cylinder 20 '.
As utilizing Fig. 3 illustrated, the width h1 of external
spiral element 24a makes
tongue piece 13 in a single day be positioned among the 24c of gap greater than the width h2 of parallel
interior element 24b, will give prominence to outside
interior element 24b, exposes the part of its
inner face 22.
Folding device 40 also is equipped with a pair of
fixing gluer 18, be positioned at relevant fixed
fold device 30 near, separately alongside at the two ends of
cylinder 20, and point to relevant external
spiral folder element 24a.
Surpass spiral folder 24 and with the corresponding to place of
packing box 23 delivery positions,
folding device 40 has comprised a pair of second fixed
fold device 33, they engage to
tabs 17 with the front side, and the tabs flattening the
core 39 of edgefold ' on.
At last,
folding device 40 comprises a pair of the 3rd fixed
fold device 32, and their position is along the direction of sending
conveyer belt 35 outside, and is consistent with the end face of
cylinder 20 basically, and
tongue piece 13 is flattened on
side direction tabs 14 and 17.
Or rather, as shown in Figure 2, on
packing box 23 delivery positions,
tongue piece 13 along direction bending shown in the arrow F9, flattening is on
side direction tabs 14 and 17, and at this moment,
second push rod 36 of a routine is pushed ahead by the opening 37 of
groove 21 on the
cylinder 20,
packing box 23 is released certain distance from groove, make it along
belt conveyor 35 forward by direction shown in the F10.
So far two
end faces 25 are closed fully, can be sent to the packing box that
present usefulness 34 is represented in this example in unaccounted other fexible unit, and be received by them.
Equipment 1 is the part of
wrapping machine 100, wrapping machine is as the packing of product of cigarette case and so in
groups 19, when equipment 1 work, the continuous band of packing 3 advances along predetermined feeding route 4, and adopt first cutter sweep 6, transversely line of cut T is divided into
monolithic plate 2 periodically to band, and every plate has
base 2i and
top margin 2s.
Along basic parallel with the line of cut T tree lace G that is coated with, and close 2i place,
plate 2 base, on the 3b of the back side of packing 3, be coated with last layer
adhesive material 16 with
movable gluer 12.
To pack the packing box of 19 products in groups in order to prepare that
plate 2 is formed one, surpassing on
plate 2 vertical limits of
gluer 12 positions, make
lateral incision 11 with
second cutter sweep 10, and
plate 2 and the product on multiple package position are aligned, this
moment push rod 15a along relevant feeding route 15 ', begin to promote product by direction shown in the F3, and shift onto above the
plate 2, therefore make
plate 2 be folded into the U-shaped shape around
group products 19; Then the
top margin 2s of plate and
base 2i are stacked,
base 2i on
top margin 2s, thereby form a
tubular wrapping box 23 with two
open ends 28.
After having finished these initial process, the shape that
tubular wrapping box 23 presents has first and second 26 and 27 as shown in Figure 1, and two sides 38.Two
vertical end 28 openings still, each opening has a
continuous U-shaped edgefold 39 and a
tongue piece 13 that is surrounded by lateral incision 11.And continuously edgefold 39 comprised a core 39 ' and two
side direction parts 39 ".
At this moment,
tubular wrapping box 23 and is forced into etc. in the
groove 21 of the
cylinder 20 of accepting the position along predetermined feeding route 4 ' (the skew certain distance from original feeding route 4 along the F3 direction) forward.
As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 4, when
packing box 23 enters
relevant groove 21, the
core 39 of edgefold 39 ' tackled by the first fixed
fold device 30,23 bendings along direction shown in the F9 towards packing box, and contact with the end face of
group products 19, in this process,
side direction tabs 14 and 17 before and after producing.In same motion,
tongue piece 13 also is blocked, and be bent to first 26 of
packing box 23 vertical substantially position on.
When
packing box 23 is contained within the
relevant groove 21, and
tongue piece 13 flattens back
transverse flap 14 with
movable folder 31, as shown in Figure 2 when remaining on perpendicular to first 26 position by
folder 30.
Then,
cylinder 20 beginnings are rotated along direction shown in the arrow F8, have changed a step-length that is equivalent to angular distance between two
grooves 21, force thus among the
gap 24c of each
tongue piece 13 between
spiral folder element 24a and 24b.
From Fig. 1, can know in 2 and 3 and see, because
cylinder 20 is around the rotation of
self axis 29, make
tongue piece 13 slide along
relevant gap 24c, thus packing
box 23 is taken to delivery position, and another dead slot 21 (not shown)s have occupied and accepted the position, prepared to accept next packing box 23.When
cylinder 20 rotated, two
tongue pieces 13 were flattened gradually, from vertical substantially position move on to roughly with 23 first 26 identical faces of packing box on, at this
moment packing box 23 has arrived delivery position.Simultaneously, each
tongue piece 13 will cross relevant fixedly gluer 18, thus one deck adhesive material will be coated on the
inner face 22 of
tongue piece 13, and roughly curved gum spot point forms ring-type.
When
cylinder 20 rotates about 90 ° around himself
axis 29, when
group products 19 and
relevant packing box 23 thereof are taken to delivery position, the front side to
tabs 17 by second fixedly tabs 33 interceptions and the flattening; At last,
packing box 23 is released outside the
groove 21 by push rod 36 (Fig. 2), be sent to therefrom on the
belt conveyor 35, and through between the 3rd fixed
fold device 32, two
tongue pieces 13 engage with the 3rd fixed
fold device 32, along the direction bending shown in the F9, thereby be driven plain in
side direction tabs 14 and 17, and the
core 39 of respective end tabs 39 ' on.
End face 25 is closed now, and
tubular wrapping box 23 has converted
complete packing box 34 to, and the packaging process of
group products 19 declares to be finished.
Importantly should be understood that and adopt the fixedly
gluer 18 of position near
cylinder 20 end faces, big along the space that the feeding route 4 required spaces of packing 3 can't be more required than prior art approach, in the prior art, finished before packing
box 23 folding process along vertical limit coating process of feeding route.
In addition, coating process of the present invention only just carries out when
tongue piece 13 folds, so just in case the cycle of operations of packing interrupts, if also there is not gluing on
tongue piece 13, can not cause the dry problem of adhesive material.
