DE1956400B2 - DEVICE FOR LOADING THE LIFTING STAMP OF A PACKAGING MACHINE WITH PIECES OF SUESSARIES - Google Patents

Description

The invention relates to a device for loading of the lifting ram of a packaging machine with pieces of confectionery, such as candies, Chocolate tablets, pralines or the like. From the German Auslegeschrift 1010 907 it is known to let such parts run in a row one after the other to the packaging point and at the end of the feeder required for this, an intermittently driven intermediate conveyor with in the feed direction to arrange open infeeds for the pieces of candy, with the pieces of candy out of the feeder conveying direction roped out and then brought from the ropes to the Hubstempcl and after each sound an enema opposite the feeder and one above the lifting column that feeds the parts one after the other introduces the actual packing unit. Such devices work with a step-by-step revolving, relatively large loading plates, which leads to major construction costs and large machine dimensions and a slow working speed. On the other hand, there is no reduction in the Loading plates because of the high acceleration of the sensitive pieces of confectionery that this entails not possible. Another disadvantage is that due to the intermittent drive of the loading plate caused relatively large inertia forces cause vibrations of the machine, which have the consequence that the individual articles are not fed to the lifting ram exactly enough and can be damaged very easily, which leads to incorrect packaging.

ίο The object of the invention is this, essentially to eliminate defects caused by the loading plate and a loading device for packaging machines with smaller machine dimensions and construction costs

and enables a high level of work performance with the most careful handling of the individual packages. this is achieved according to the invention in that the intermediate conveyor consists of a transverse to the feeder conveying direction floating manifold with

two in their depth at least twice the length of the piece corresponding inlet and arranged on both sides of the feeder, the pieces of confectionery against the end of the inlets consists of pushing pusher. The feed of the pieces is expedient

limit a stop, preferably one piece length behind the entrance of the inlet. This can be adjustable according to the piece size.

The distributor is preferably made from a plate

_{3 <} j, while the inlets are slits that are open to each other and parallel to the inlet. The two pushers can be connected to a common drive and work simultaneously and in the same direction.

An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawings, namely show the

F i g. 1 to 6 plan views of the device in various working positions and

F i g. 1 a to 6 a each cross-sections through the lifting ram with the distributor plate above.

The device consists essentially of a machine table 1, a support plate or similar, in which an opening 2 for the up and down, in the rest position with the upper

side of the plate 1 comparing lifting ram 3 is provided. In front of the table 1, the inlet channel formed by the adjustable guide rails 4 ends for the confectionery pieces a, b, c, d ... to be packaged.

tcs tape, a slider or the like can be used.

A distributor plate 5 with inlet channels 6, 6 'runs just above the table top 1 and runs on a guide 7 is guided transversely. The drive de '

Distribution plate 5 takes place via a switching mechanism 8, 9, 10 in the required work cycle of the machine. On both sides of the feeder 4, push-in rams 11, 11 'are provided, which have a common drive are equipped and who have the task of

separate pieces of confectionery accordingly deep into the inlets 6, 6 'to enter.

The advance of the pieces of confectionery a, ft, c etc. entering the device is controlled by a stop 12 limited, the one in front of the lifting ram 3

is arranged adjustable and is swept over by the distributor plate 5, in which for this purpose on the Underside a recess drawn in dashed lines
