Definitions

  • the invention relates to an automatic, continuously operating line from packaging machines for the production of filled and closed containers from a flat band wound on a spool.
  • Automatic packaging machines which produce square containers from a flat band which is wound on spools. These containers are formed by devices that work with complex, alternating movements.
  • Packaging machines with alternating movements also have the disadvantage that maintenance work often has to be carried out out of sequence and the associated shutdown of the entire automatic packaging line causes considerable production losses.
  • the invention has for its object to provide an automatic high-performance packaging line with a high level of operational reliability, easier and cheaper maintenance, with low noise pollution, low operating costs, small dimensions, with a high degree of adaptation to both the wound material and the product to be packaged, one system, in which a Sterilisierun can be adjusted with the exact weight of the product and packaged g sstrom preceded by a collecting and packaging line for the filled and sealed prismatic container can be adjusted.
  • a main mechanism is provided with four endless conveyor belts lying opposite one another in pairs, the conveyor belts running synchronously and being provided with shaping devices which consist of elements which bend at right angles and are arranged in pairs opposite to one another so that they have inner sections of hollow prismatic tubes, which have a straight axis and a rectangular cross-section, the shaping devices operating silently and continuously with constant linear movement.
  • the four endless, paired and synchronous conveyor belts are alternately provided with two pairs of working devices, one pair consisting of opposing jaws for closing the containers and the jaws being provided with a cutting tool, and that another pair of additional opposed blades is used to shape the lateral ears of the prismatic container inside the hollow portions of the continuously conveyed rectangular tube and at the same time to align the image to be applied to the outside of the container, the container already being filled with the product to be packaged .
  • the invention thus provides a continuously operating high-performance packaging line for rectangular prismatic containers, which operates silently, causes low operating and maintenance costs and has high operational reliability, accuracy and uniformity.
  • the continuously operating packaging line according to the invention has great advantages over the known packaging machines and consists of a series of silent high-speed packaging machines.
  • Fig. 1 shows the main mechanism of a continuously operating packaging line, which consists of four conveyor belts 1, 2, 3 and 4.
  • the conveyor belts are endless and face each other in pairs.
  • the belts stretched over deflection rollers run with a uniform, uniform movement in the direction of the arrows.
  • the movement is effected by known drive transmission means.
  • the tapes are like this arranged that the opposite Ab-. cuts of the strips produce straight-line paths 5.
  • Fig. 2 shows a modified arrangement of the conveyor belts 1; 2, 3; 4; whose outward-facing run is in each case stretched over a roller which is not in the plane of the deflection rollers.
  • These belts also have a uniform movement and have a rectilinear band section along the regions 5 'which run with invariable rectilinear movement.
  • Fig. 4 shows that the form elements 6 and 7, which are arranged in pairs opposite each other on the conveyor belts, form the inner rectilinear section; Likewise, the jaws 8 and the additional blades 9 are shown, each of which is attached to a pair of opposing conveyor belts. These pliers jaws 8 and additional blades 9 are arranged alternately with the shaped elements 6 and 7 on the conveyor belts.
  • the jaws 8 have the task of closing and cutting the containers, while the additional blades attached to the tapes forming the narrow sides of the containers have the task of shaping the ears of the container which is being manufactured.
  • Fig. 5 shows that the jaws 8 close the tube 10 diagonally, the tube having previously been filled with the product to be packaged. Through these jaws 8 the tube 10 is drawn into the rectilinear area 5 of the conveyor belts. In this area, the opposite shaped elements 6 form the container to the prism on the opposite sides. The container is already closed by the jaws 8.
  • Fig. 7 shows the opposing bands 1 and 3, in which, in addition to the opposing shaped elements 7, additional blades 9 are provided on each side. These blades 9 form lateral ears on the container to be manufactured and center the container at the same time so that images can be attached to the outside thereof. 7 shows the jaws 8 for closing the container.
  • FIG. 8 shows the conveyor belts 1 and 3 in the t production stage, which corresponds to FIG. 6.
  • the conveyor belts 1 and 3 are alternately provided with opposing shaped elements 7 and additional blades 9.
  • the jaws 8 for closing the container engage laterally on the prismatic square container. These jaws 8 are attached to the pair of opposing bands 2 and 4, which is only indicated in FIG. 8.
  • Figure 9 is a schematic representation of the sequence of operations.
  • the container 10 In order to pack the container 10, it is filled and brought into shape within the rectilinear region 5 of the conveyor belts by the mutually opposing shaped elements 6 and 7 and closed by the pliers jaws 8 and the blades 9 forming the lateral ears.
  • the main mechanism consists of four endless annular conveyor belts, two of which face each other in pairs. These belts are driven at a coordinated and even speed.
  • the means for driving and for transmitting the driving force are known from the prior art.
  • Volume 1 is opposite volume 3 and volume 2 is opposite volume 4. All four belts run with coordinated smooth movement and their smooth speed can be very high. The belts run noiselessly, vibration-free, low wear and maintenance-free.
  • the conveyor belts can consist of chains, preferably from link chains, or from tapes made of textiles, synthetic materials or other materials.
  • the synchronization of the smooth movement of the four conveyor belts can be achieved by known mechanisms.
  • a series of evenly spaced holes or a series of reinforced pins can be provided which engage pins or holes provided on the drive and transfer rollers to ensure accurate synchronization of the even movement between the belts.
  • Known belts can be used for transmission within the drive mechanism, as can other types of transmission mechanisms used in similar systems.
  • the main mechanism according to the invention can slide within suitable guides, which can be designed in different ways and can consist of different materials.
  • the strength, width and height of the ring-shaped endless belts are parameters which can be selected by the person skilled in the art in accordance with the dimensions of the packaging machines and which depend on the technical and functional conditions of the containers which are to be produced.
  • Protection is claimed for all packaging lines for prismatic, square containers, in which the main mechanism consists of four endless belts or silent chains, which face each other in pairs, the movement of which is synchronized, and which are successively with elements of Formungst facilities are provided.
  • These shaping devices are arranged opposite one another on the bands so that they can produce the inner region of hollow prismatic tubes with straight axes and square cross-section.
  • the belts work noiselessly and continuously with even, straight-line movement. Machining elements are provided alternately between the shaping elements, each consisting of a pair of opposing jaws and a pair of additional blades.
