A machine for manufacturing, filling and closing of containers made of paper, plastic _or the like od _c

The invention relates to a machine for making, filling and closing containers made of paper, plastic or the like ₀ , in which continuously a hose is produced by laying a material web around a mandrel and after the filling has taken place through the mandrel, transversely sealed and individually Container sections is divided

Such machines, which operate according to the so-called tube filling principle, are increasingly used for filling used by milk and other dairy products, being made by the use of these machines in dairies or other filling companies have to meet high requirements in terms of ease of use. Of special The importance of this is the possibility of converting a machine from one container size to another, for example, if the machine is to be converted from a 1/2 liter container to a 1 liter container. . Such a one In addition to the need to keep a large number of format parts in stock, this would mean a great deal of time and effort make it necessary for the conversion of the machine, which also results in considerable dead times.

For this reason, machines have hitherto been used which _{are set up for a container size or c} format, ie a machine must be set up for each additional container format. Apart from the fact that the procurement, installation and maintenance of several machines is associated with great economic and technical effort, the increased space requirement often occurs

unsolvable problem «, -

The object of the invention is to provide a Machine of the type described above, which is thereby ' distinguishes that containers of various sizes and shapes can be made, filled and closed without that time-consuming and cumbersome conversion work is required areο

To solve this problem, a machine for the production, pulling and closing of F containers is now used as a basis, in which a tube is continuously produced by laying a material web around a mandrel and, after the filling has taken place through the mandrel, transversely sealed and divided into individual container sections it is proposed according to the invention to arrange two or more tool groups each set up for a container format on a common carrier so that they can be moved into or out of the working position. The tool groups each set up on a container format are arranged on a carrier pivotable about an axis in such a way that when one tool group is moved out of the working position, another tool group is moved into the working position. A particularly advantageous embodiment can be seen in the fact that the 'axis receiving the pivotable support are arranged parallel to the forward movement of the container string, whereby the overall structure of the machine' ^! Make it clear and accessible. It is also advantageous to attach the individual tool groups to the carrier in an exchangeable manner for the purpose of maintenance or replacement.

The subject matter of the invention is described below with reference to "" of the embodiment illustrated with the drawings

Example described.

Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of a side view

of the machine according to the invention, FIG. 2 shows a top view of FIG. 1.

The material web 2 coming from the supply roll 1 - preferably made of thermoplastic material - is filled with a sterilizing medium via the guide rollers 3 Channel 4- fed and made double-layered by longitudinal folding, with the two outer boundary edges to cover to be brought. The material web 2 prepared in this way arrives in the further course over guide rollers 5 and 6 in the area the filling station, which is enclosed by the material web 2 in a known manner from the tube 7j cLen supplying the filling material The filling and forming mandrel 8 and the roll 9 sealing the longitudinal seam of the double-layer web 2

The now filled strand Io becomes with its further Forward movement by the cross sealing tools following the strand movement 11 divided into individual container sections, the distance and shape of the Sealing tools size and shape of the individual container sections are determined. The sealing tools 11 are attached in a known manner to endless chains 12 which are guided over sprockets 15 and 14. The one described above Cross sealing device closes a circumferential Knives existing cross-cutting device 15, which the individual containers 16 from the endless strand Io separates. A conveyor 17 brings the individual containers 16 to a collection or not shown Packing station.

As can be seen in particular from FIG. 2, are in the case of present embodiment, three tool groups each set up for a container format lo, 11, 12, 13, 14-

By performing a pivoting movement thereby become necessary repairs and maintenance can then optionally ■ one of the B ehälter groups are brought into the working position, "The individual groups of tools are replaceably fixed to the common carrier 18, without hindering the filling operation can be carried out _o
