Definitions

  • This invention rotates in general to the art of packaging elongate flexible material and relates in particular to a storage reel assembly for such material and to a pair of matable hub members for such an assembly.
  • a problem with which the invention is concerned is the provision of a storage reel assembly which is simple to assemble into a finished storage reel and hub members of which can be used with a variety of different sized reel end flange members to produce, as required, storage reels of various diameters and widths.
  • "knock down" or collapsable storage reels are known, for example from United States Patent Specifications Nos. 1,013,588; I,265,11C; 1,679,573; 2,312,S99; 2,635,142; 2,331,335 and 3,301,500; and Australian Patent Specification No. 145,690, none of these known assemblies fulfill all the above criteria.
  • screw means to maintain the parts in assembled relationship, for example, renders the assembly time undesirably long and the provision of fastening means on the reel end compassion emmbers themselves, for example, renders them usable only with conplementarily formed parts.
  • the hub with which latch arms of the locking means are formed, is useable only with specially adapted reel end flange members having blind recesses for receiving the ends of the hub, the walls of the recesses having openings for receiving the latch arms. If the width of'the finished reel is to be altered, the hub must be replaced by a hub of different length.
  • the invention proceeds from the realization that locking means should be provided on the hub alone for securing the reel end flange members in assembled relationship with a spacer member for the flange members.
  • a storage reel assembly as herein defined is characterised in that the assembly further comprises a spacer member having a central through aperture; and in that the hub comprises two matable hub members each of which can be passed through a respective one of the central openings, which are through openings, to an extent limited by stop means on the respective hub members, to mate in the central aperture of the spacer member when such is interposed between the reel end flange members, the locking means comprising at least one locking flange on one hub member and at least one row of locking ribs on the other hub member, the or each locking flange being interposeable between an adjacent pair of the locking ribs by relatively rotating the hub members when in their mating relationship, to an extent limited by an abutment carried by one of the hub members.
  • reel end flange members can be in tne form of simple annular discs, different sized pairs of such flange members being capable of female hub member having a-circular cross-section female mating portion extending co-axially from its base portion,.
  • the male hub member having an elongate, male mating portion extending centrally from its base portion with a plurality of interrupted rings on the outer surface thereof, each ring comprising at least one radially extending arcuate rib, at least one keying member extending from the base portion of the male mating portion and being shaped for keying engagement in the central aperture of the spacer member, the mating portions being such that the flange or flanges can be passed between the ribs of the female mating portion and the hub members relatively rotated to bring the ribs and the flange or flanges into locking engagement.
  • a storage reel assembly 10 comprises a pair of substantially identical reel end flange members 12 and 14 formed from thin, rigid stock material, for example metal or pressboard, the members 12 and 14 having central circular through openings 16 and
  • a pair of matable hub members for an assembly according to the invention is characterised in that each hub member comprises a base portion having a flange for abutment against the respective reel end flange member, and a mating portion in the form of a circular, or substantially circular cross-section tube extending substantially centrally from the base portion, the mating portion of one hub member being adapted to receive the mating portion of the other hub member, the locking ribs being in the form of a series of spaced, interrupted rings extending circumferentially about the outer surface of the mating portion of the other hub member, a plurality of locking flanges extending axially inwardly from the inner surface of the mating portion of-the one hub member at its end remote from its base portion, the abutment being in the form of a rib extending from one of the locking flanges towards the base portion of the one hub member.
  • an assembly as herein defined is characterised in that the assembly further comprises a spacer member having a central, non-circular through aperture; and in that the hub comprises substantially circular cross-section, matable female and male hub members, each hub member having a base portion receivable in a respective one of the central openings, and a radial flange adapted to engage the respective reel end flange member, the
  • a circular cross-section tubular cylindrical mating portion 30 extending co-axially from the portion 27 has a through bore 32 at the extreme right hand (as seen in Figure 2) end of which are two-internal, radially extending flanges 34 and 36 each having in its axially inward surface, a detent notch 38 (only one of which is shown) , the notches being identical.
  • An abutment in the form of a stop rib 40 ( Figures 1 and 3) extends the full length of the wall of the bore 32 adjacent to one end of the flange 34.
  • the base portion 27 has two finger grip apertures 42 and 44 formed therein.
  • the hub member 26 has a base portion 46 externally shaped for reception in the other of the openings 16 or 18 of the reel end flange members 12 and 14 and having a radially extending flange 48 for engaging the radially outer face of the other flange member 12 or 14.
  • a pair of wedge shaped keying portions 50 and 52 extending from the base portion 46 each has a cantilever latch arm 54 diverging from the portion 50 or 52 in the axially outward direction of the assembly 10 when in its assembled condition (as best seen in Figure 3), each arm 54 terminating back from the plane of the flange 48.
  • the outer peripheral surfaces of the portions 50 and 52 conform to the walls of the aperture 22 in the spacer member 20 so as to key the hub member 26 thereto.
  • a circular cross-section tubular mating portion 56 extanding coaxially from the centre of the base portion 46 has a central bore 58, a plurality of segmental locking ribs 62 and 64 on the external surface of the mating portion 56 are arranged in two opposed rows to provide a series of interrupted locking rings coaxial with the portion 56 and being constantly spaced from one another in axial direction thereof.
  • Each rib 62 and 64 has a detent projection 66 extending axially outwardly of the assembly 10 and being complementary with each notch 38 of the hub member 24, (only the projections 66 of the ribs 62 are shown) .
  • the hub members 24 and 26 are preferably moulded from a hard wearing plastics material of high rigidity.
  • reel end flange members 12 and 14 of the required diameter and a spacer member 20 of the required thickness are first selected, together with a male and a female hub member these being essentially universal members of standard dimensions for use with any of the reel flange and spacer members held in store.
  • the male hub member 26 is first inserted through the opening 16 of the reel end flange member 12 (for exawple) so that the latch arms 54 engage the inner face of the flange member 12 (see Figure 3) whereby the reel end flange member 12 is held firmly in position between the latch arms 54 and the flange 48 of the hub member 26.
  • the spacer member 20 is then mounted on the keying portions 50 and 52 of the member 26 so that these portions extend through the aperture 22 of the member 20 whereby the members 20 and 26 are keyed together and are
  • the hub members are shown in Figure 2 in alagned relationship as they would be in their fully mated and locked condition. In order to mate the two hub members 24 and 26 they are positioned so as to be relatively rotated by 90° with respect to the angular positions in which the hub members 24 and 26 are shown in Figure 2, so that ribs 62 and 64 of the hub member 26 are aligned with the spaces between the flanges 34 and 36 of the hub member 24.
  • the portion 56 is inserted into the bore 32, to an extent determined by the widths of the spacer 20 and the reel end flange members 12 and 14, until the flanges 34 and 36 are aligned with the space between a pair of adjacent ribs 62 and that between the opposed pair of ribs 64, after which the hub members 24 and 26 are relatively rotated to their angular positions of Figure 2, in which each flange 34 and 36 is interposed between an adjacent pair of the ribs 62 and 64 and the detent projections 66 of those ribs engage in the detent notches 38 of the flanges, continued relative rotation of the hub members 24 and 26 in the same sense being prevented by the abutment of the ribs 62 against the stop rib 40.
  • the hub members 24 and 26 are thus releasably locked together.
  • the reel end flange member 14 is held in position between the flange 28 of the hub member 24 and the spacer member 20, as shown in Figure 3.
  • the hub members can be released from one another by relatively rotating the hub in the opposite sense to that described above and then withdrawing the portion 56 from the bore 32.
  • the reel assembly described above may be modified in various ways for example there may be only one or more than two flanges 34 and 36 and more than two rows of ribs 62 and 64 on the portion 56.
  • the ribs may be on the female hub member and the flange or flanges on the male hub member, the aperture 22 may be other than square the portions 50 and 52 being appropriately modified in shape.
  • the spacer member may be of any suitable form, being spoked for example.
  • the finger grip apertures 42 and 44 may be of a number other than two and may be in the form of recesses rather than apertures. There may for example be only one latch member 54. Under some circumstances it may not be necessary to key the spacer member to the hub members.
  • a metal insert 70 has a square base wall 72 from which extend four rectangular side walls 74 so that the insert 70 has the form of an open rectangular box or tray.
  • the wall 72 has a central circular opening 76 and four smaller circular openings 78 constantly spaced about the opening 76.
  • the insert 70 is for inclusion in the assembly 10 where the finished reel is to be subjected to considerable torque when in use.
  • the insert 70 is inserted into the aperture 22 of the spacer member 20 so that the open side of the insert 70 will face the reel end flange member 12.
  • the keying portions 50 and 52 of the hub member 26 engage the inner surfaces of the side walls 74 of the insert 70, with the mating portion 56 of the hub member 26 extending through the central aperture 75 of the insert 70.
  • fasteners may be inserted through two of the smaller openings 78 which are aligned with openings 80 in the portions 50 and 52, to secure the insert 70 more firmly against rotation relative to the hub members.
  • the insert 70 thus serves to increase the resistance of the finished reel to torque developed when the reel is in use. It has been found that such resistance to torque can be optimized by making the spacer 20 of expanded polystyrene.
  • the finger grip apertures 42 and 44 may be employed to receive driving members (not shown) e.g. spindles, for rotating the finished reel about an axle (not shown) passed through the bores 32 and 58 of the hub members.
  • the driving members may also extend from the apertures 42 and 44 through those openings 78 of the insert 70 (when such is provided), which are not occupied by the fasteners mentioned above, these openings 78 being aligned with the apertures 42 and 44.
