Field of application of the invention

The inventive method relates to the palletizing and packaging of cylindrical objects preferably tubes or rods made of glass or other materials for a dimensionally stable, stackable packaging and an apparatus for performing this method.

Characteristics of the Known Technical Solution The research on the state of the art has shown, as the description of the invention DE-OS 2407167 shows, that e.g. in the manufacture of rolling stock, such as wire, fine steel, sheet metal and the like, to simplify the transport and storage, the products are collected into bundles or stacks and transported by a transport system, ζ "Β. Rolling or hook conveyors fed to a binding station and bound by means of binding machines into solid bundles or packages.

The BRD-AS 2708925 describes a device for stacking layers of tubes or rods, wherein the stack layers gradually lowered to the respective layer height. become. The resulting stack is formed into a regular, hexagonal prism and firmly enclosed with steel bands. The two aforementioned solutions have the disadvantage that the bundle size is dependent on the particular stacked goods and the steel straps used for packaging for glass tubes or other leichtzerbrechliehe, rod-shaped objects are not suitable. Y / eiter is known by the Federal Republic of Germany 2755629 a device for bundling elongate objects, esp. Of profile and flat bars, which is characterized in that the profiles are pushed in the longitudinal direction in a so-called bundle car by a Mitnehmerwerk, which is box-shaped is and is arranged to fill horizontally and vertically movable. A disadvantage of this bundling method is that the material to be stacked strikes one another when filling the carriages and thus scratches are not excluded.

It is known that the glass tubes or rods fused to a specific length and fused at the edges are expediently portioned manually in the intermediate store after a glass tube pulling device.

weigh, bundled into bundles and stored in stake pallets. This process is labor-intensive and laborious and has the further disadvantage that due to the dimensions of the 1OLg bundles due to different pipe diameters of 5.5 mm to 60 mm and wall thicknesses between o, 3 mm and 4.0 mm problems with the stacking capacity arise in stanchion pallets or other pallets

 It is known that tubes and rods made of glass are packed in boxes, the packaging material consisting of several blanks »The" dimensional stability is achieved by the sheathing with cardboard as well as the double-sided blanks, which are inserted into the jacket "This packaging process is very material-consuming and not suitable for glass tubes or rods, as these lie loosely in the carton and thus resulting scratches or breakage are avoided only by additional paper liners · The various known technical solutions relate to packaging of articles that are insensitive to shock, shock or scratches are · In shock-sensitive packaged goods, esp. Glass, the packaging material expenditure in the previously known solutions is considerably or »due to the manual packaging by weight, the labor requirement too high and the utilization of the storage space of Rungenpalette durch.die en standing round bundles of different dimensions uneconomical.

Object of the invention

The aim of the invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the known technical solutions and to develop a method which enables a mechanized, gentle packaging of glass tubes or rods into dimensionally stable, stackable, space-saving bundles, whereby the amount of packaging material is minimized.

Save time and labor and optimal protection of the glass tubes or rods is guaranteed against shock and contamination of the cavities is so / ie to develop a device for performing this method.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The invention is based on the object of a method for palletizing and. Packaging of cylindrical objects, in particular to develop glass tubes and rods with different dimensions, which allows a summary of these glass objects to a dimensionally stable, stackable packaging unit, and to provide an apparatus for performing this method * According to the invention the object is achieved so that the completion of the dimensionally stable , cuboid, transport-resistant packaged bundles of particular glass tubes or rods is characterized by the following steps: The incoming of the unwinding glass tubes or rods are in an adjusted by a magnet auxiliary device on the filling station after the unwinding. arranged device and summarized after the control of the filling volume to a cuboid structure · The ends of the preformed structure located in the device are with crosswise superimposed ge put pin packaging material blanks wrapped on both sides and. immovably connected, then the device are opened and stored the finished packaged, cuboid glass tube οder rod package in pallets and stacked. ,

The device required for transporting the glass tubes or rods is inventively characterized in that it is designed as a small pallet, with the help of a transport handle allows easy handling and

consists of a frame made of flat material covered with a protective layer and a pallet bowl attached to the bottom. Locking plates are arranged on a side wall hinged on hinges, which can be brought into contact with a magnetic plate for adjustment of the device. mounted on the inside with a non-metallic protective layer occupied control bar, which is provided with a transport handle and a box closure for closing the small pallet · The packaging of the present in the small pallet preformed cuboid structure is made with preferably made of corrugated, rectangular, crosswise superimposed packaging material blanks, said the blanks according to the invention each have two pre-folded buckling members and form a cap on both sides around the ends of the structure. These longitudinally open caps are connected immovably, perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the structure, so that a dimensionally stable, stackable package is formed.

embodiment

The invention will be explained below using an exemplary embodiment.

The pigs 1 and 2 show the small pallet according to the invention, consisting of a frame 1 preferably made of flat material, on the insides to avoid scratches on the glass material with a non-metallic protective layer 2, in particular made of rubber or similar material, a side wall 3 and the control bar 8, provided with a box closure 9 and a transport handle 4 are hinged on suitable hinges 5 for better loading and unloading of the small pallet · At the hinged ~

Baren side wall preferably two locking plates 7 are mounted, which serve to adjust the side wall and the plate itself, to a fixedly attached to the filling station magnetic disk 10. In order to improve the rolling behavior on the transport path 11, which is designed as a roller or ball track, is located on the underside of the pallet rack a so-called pallet bowl 6o. In Fig. 2 to 4, the steps are shown, the completion of the dimensionally stable, cuboid packets of Glass tubes or rods are required. First, the described small pallet on the so-called filling station by means of the magnet 10, which is preferably designed as a plate, locked in working position. The tubes or rods are deposited by the unwinding device 12 into the pallet, being pushed against a stop 13. If the pallet is filled, the filling volume is checked by closing the control bar 8, whereby according to the tube or rod assortment tolerances of + 5 mm can be maintained. The adjustment is released and the small pallet containing the preformed glass package, fed to a packaging device. The wrapping of the ends of the tubes or rods held together by the pallet is carried out with two crosswise stacked, prefolded, rectangular packaging material blanks, in particular corrugated cardboard 14. The choice of blanks suitable for different assortments allows economic production from a web of packaging material theoretically without waste · The so-called "caps" resulting from the crossed position of the cardboard, which are open in the longitudinal direction, are pushed onto the ends on both sides, so that about 20 cm of the cuboid structure are sheathed on both sides

Pallet and the capped package pushed through an automatic device 15, wherein each cap is immovably connected, e.g. is tied perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the structure. The easy unloading of the finished, stackable glass package is done by loosening the control bracket 8 and the unfolding of the movable side wall 3 of the small pallet. The dimensionally stable, cuboid glass tube or rod package can now be stored in any form, even in a vertical position, saving space, for example in large pallets.
