Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Durchführung stichprobenartiger Kontrollwägungen gefüllter Packungen, insbesondere Kaffee-Packungen, die auf einem Förderer in fortlaufender Reihe transportiert werden, mit Einrichtungen zur Entnahme jeweils einer Prüfpackung aus dem Transportfluß, zum Aufsetzen derselben auf eine (Kontroll-)Waage und zum Rückführen der Prüfpackung in den Transportfluß nach der Wägung.The invention relates to a device for carrying out random checkweighing of filled packs, in particular coffee packs, which are transported on a conveyor in a continuous row, with devices for removing a test pack from the transport flow, for placing the same on a (control) balance and for Returning the test pack to the transport flow after weighing.

Bei der Herstellung von Verpackungen, bei denen der Inhalt nach Gewicht bestimmt wird, ist die möglichst genaue Einhaltung des Soll-Gewichts ein wichtiges Anliegen. Aufgrund einschlägiger Vorschriften ist es erforderlich, die Einhaltung des Soll-Gewichts durch stichprobenartige Kontrollwägung zu überwachen. Das Ergebnis dieser Kontrollwägungen führt dann zu erforderlichen Um-oder Einstellungen der Verpackungs- bzw. Füllmaschinen.When producing packaging in which the content is determined by weight, it is important to maintain the target weight as precisely as possible. Due to the relevant regulations, it is necessary to monitor compliance with the target weight by random checkweighing. The result of these check weighings then leads to the necessary adjustments or adjustments to the packaging or filling machines.

Die Kontrollwägungen sollen möglichst genau durchgeführt werden, damit die tatsächlichen Füllgewichte entsprechend nahe an das Soll-Gewicht herankommen. Zu diesem Zweck werden bei der Durchführung der Gewichtskontrolle Präzisionswaagen eingesetzt mit einem Toleranzbereich von ± 0,1 g.The checkweighing should be carried out as accurately as possible so that the actual filling weights come close to the target weight. For this purpose, precision scales with a tolerance range of ± 0.1 g are used when carrying out the weight control.

Zur Mechanisierung derartiger Kontrollwägungen ist aus der DE-C-953 508 bereits eine Vorrichtung bekannt, die an Abfüllmaschinen Kontrollwägungen noch offener Packungen durchführt. Diese bekannte Vorrichtung ist speziell für noch offene Packungen konzipiert, indem sie eine sich in einer horizontalen Ebene oberhalb der Packungen drehende Schwenkvorrichtung aufweist, die gegenüberliegende Greiferpaare zum Ergreifen oberer Ränder zweier gegenüberliegender Packungswandungen aufweist. Diese bekannte Vorrichtung ist zwischen einem Förderer, in dem die zu kontrollierenden Packungen mit Abstand voneinander transportiert werden, und einer Kontrollwaage angeordnet. Durch eine Schwenkbewegung der Schwenkeinrichtung um 180° erfolgt ein Abnehmen der zu prüfenden Packung vom Förderer und ein Aufsetzen auf die Kontrollwaage. Durch eine erneute 180°-Bewegung der Schwenkvorrichtung erfolgt nach der Kontrollwägung ein Wiederaufsetzen der kontrollierten Packung auf den Förderer. Zur Schonung der Kontroll-Pakkungen beim Herunternehmen und Zuführen zum Förderer bzw. zur Kontroll-Waage erfolgt zusätzlich zur Schwenkbewegung der Schwenkvorrichtung ein geringfügiges Anheben der Schwenkarme, und zwar jeweils vor Beginn des Verschwenkens.For the mechanization of such checkweighing, a device is already known from DE-C-953 508 which carries out checkweighing of still open packs on filling machines. This known device is specially designed for still open packs in that it has a swiveling device which rotates in a horizontal plane above the packs and has opposing pairs of grippers for gripping upper edges of two opposing pack walls. This known device is arranged between a conveyor in which the packs to be checked are transported at a distance from one another and a checkweigher. By swiveling the swivel device through 180 °, the package to be checked is removed from the conveyor and placed on the checkweigher. With a new 180 ° movement of the swivel device, the checked pack is put back on the conveyor after the check weighing. In order to protect the control packs when removing them and feeding them to the conveyor or to the checkweigher, in addition to the swiveling movement of the swiveling device, the swiveling arms are raised slightly, each time before swiveling begins.

Diese bekannte Vorrichtung ist aufgrund ihrer Greiforgane nur für Kontrollwägungen noch offener Packungen geeignet, kann also nur unmittelbar im Anschluß an eine Abfüllmaschine eingesetzt werden. Darüber hinaus ist es notwendig, für den Kontroll-Wiegevorgang den Förderer für die Packungen anzuhalten, damit die Greifer zuverlässig die. freien Ränder der offenen Packungen erfassen können und eine Rückführung der gewogenen Packung in die gleiche. durch die Entnahme derselben entstandene Lücke auf dem Förderer erfolgen kann. Dadurch ist eine kontinuierliche Weiterverarbeitung der Packungen, nämlich im vorliegenden Falle ein Verschließen derselben nicht möglich.Due to its gripping elements, this known device is only suitable for check weighing of still open packs, so it can only be used immediately after a filling machine. In addition, it is necessary to stop the conveyor for the packs for the control weighing process so that the grippers reliably. free edges of the open packs and a return of the weighed pack to the same. gap can be created on the conveyor by removing the same. As a result, continuous further processing of the packs, namely in the present case, they cannot be sealed.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung zu schaffen, mit der Kontrollwägungen bei geringem Aufwand unabhängig von persönlichen Einflußnahmen und ohne ein Anhalten des Förderers für die Packungen möglich sind.The invention has for its object to provide a device with which check weighing is possible with little effort regardless of personal influence and without stopping the conveyor for the packs.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung gekennzeichnet durch einen quer zur Förderrichtung (Pfeil) der Reihe der Packungen hin- und herbewegbaren Schieber mit Halteorganen (Klemmbacken), die zum Festhalten der Prüfpackung an deren gegenüberliegenden Seitenflächen anlegbar sind und zwischen denen bei nicht angelegten Halteorganen (Klemmbacken) die Packungen hindurchförderbar sind, sowie durch eine Einrichtung (Seitenführung, Druckbacke) zum Fixieren der auf die Prüfpackung folgenden Packung der Reihe bei laufendem Förderer.To achieve this object, the device according to the invention is characterized by a slide which can be moved back and forth transversely to the conveying direction (arrow) of the row of packs and has holding members (clamping jaws) which can be placed on the opposite side surfaces to hold the test pack and between which in the case of holding members which have not been put on (Clamping jaws) the packs can be conveyed through, and by a device (side guide, pressure jaw) for fixing the pack following the test pack with the conveyor running.

Für die Entnahme und Rückführung der Prüfpackungen aus der bzw. in die Reihe der Packungen werden diese gemäß der Erfindung vorher angehalten, so daß die betreffende Prüfpackung frei ab- oder zurückgefördert werden kann. Zu diesem Zweck wird eine Packung innerhalb der Reihe mit Abstand vom Schieber fixiert, insbesondere durch Festklemmen, derart, daß die nachfolgenden auflaufenden Packungen angehalten werden. Die davorliegende Packung kann nunmehr erfaßt und quer abgefördert werden. Entsprechend wird vorgegangen, wenn die Prüfpackung in die Reihe zurückgegeben werden soll.For the removal and return of the test packs from or into the row of packs, these are stopped beforehand according to the invention, so that the test pack in question can be freely removed or returned. For this purpose, a pack is fixed within the row at a distance from the slide, in particular by clamping, in such a way that the subsequent packs which come up are stopped. The pack in front of it can now be gripped and transversely removed. The same procedure is followed if the test pack is to be returned in a row.

Der Schieber für die Entnahme und Rückführung der Prüfpackungen ist erfindungsgemäß in besonderer Weise ausgebildet, nämlich mit Haltebacken versehen, die bei Übernahme einer Prüfpackung an den Seitenflächen derselben anliegen. Der mit einem U-Halter ausgestattete Schieber befindet sich in der Ausgangsstellung stets im Bereich der Reihe der fortlaufend geförderten Packungen, und zwar derart, daß diese zwischen den mit entsprechendem Abstand voneinander liegenden Haltebacken hindurchgefördert werden. Wenn der Wägevorgang ausgelöst wird, werden die Haltebacken gegeneinander bewegt, wodurch die betreffende Prüfpackung erfaßt und sodann quer aus dem Förderstrom (Reihe der Packungen) herausgefördert wird.The slide for the removal and return of the test packs is designed according to the invention in a special way, namely provided with holding jaws which rest on the side faces of the same when a test pack is taken over. The slide equipped with a U-holder is always in the starting position in the area of the row of continuously conveyed packs, in such a way that they are conveyed between the holding jaws which are at a corresponding distance from one another. When the weighing process is triggered, the holding jaws are moved against one another, whereby the test pack in question is grasped and then conveyed out of the conveying stream (row of packs) transversely.

Eine besondere Erfindung ist in den Maßnahmen zur Übergabe der Packung an die Waage und zur Rückgabe derselben zu sehen. Die Packungen werden zu diesem Zweck auf einen Zwischenhalter aufgesetzt, der plattenförmig ausgebildet ist und sich in der Ausgangsposition etwa in Höhe des Förderers für die Packungen erstreckt. Nach Freigabe der durch den Schieber auf den Zwischenhalter aufgesetzten Prüfpakkung erfolgt eine Abwärtsbewegung und eine damit vollzogene Übergabe der Prüfpackungen an die Waage. Während der Wägung hat die Prüfpackung den Zwischenhalter verlassen, um im Anschluß daran von diesem wieder übernommen und dem Zwischenhalter zugeführt zu werden. Die Waage bzw. ein Waagendeckel ist zu diesem Zweck mit nach oben gerichteten Tragstiften bzw. Tragbolzen versehen, auf die die Prüfpackung aufgesetzt wird. Der plattenförmige Zwischenhalter ist dabei mit Ausnehmungen (Bohrungen) versehen, durch die die Tragstifte unter Abheben der Prüfpackung hindurchtreten.A particular invention can be seen in the measures for transferring the package to the scale and returning it. The packs are made for this purpose Intermediate holder placed, which is plate-shaped and extends in the starting position approximately at the level of the conveyor for the packs. After the test package placed on the intermediate holder by the slide has been released, a downward movement takes place and the test packages are thus handed over to the balance. During the weighing, the test pack left the intermediate holder, after which it was taken over again and fed to the intermediate holder. For this purpose, the balance or a balance cover is provided with support pins or support bolts pointing upwards, onto which the test pack is placed. The plate-shaped intermediate holder is provided with recesses (bores) through which the support pins pass while lifting off the test pack.

Die Erfindung ist in besonderer Weise in Verbindung mit der Herstellung von Packungen für Nahrungs- und Genußmittel geeignet, vor allem bei der Verpackung von Röstkaffee, da es hier auf eine besonders präzise Wägung ankommt.The invention is particularly suitable in connection with the production of packs for food and beverages, especially for the packaging of roasted coffee, since a particularly precise weighing is important here.

Das dargestellte Ausführungsbeispiel bezieht sich auf die Behandlung von im wesentlichen quaderförmigen Packungen 10, insbesondere Kaffee-Packungen. Diese werden von einer Verpackungs- bzw. Füllmaschine kommend in einer fortlaufenden Reihe 11 auf einem Förderer 12 transportiert. Bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Packungen 10 innerhalb der Reihe 11 mit geringen Abständen voneinander angeordnet. Alternativ können die Packungen 10 in Dichtlage innerhalb der Reihe 11 gefördert werden. Als Förderer 12 kommt vorzugsweise ein ständig umlaufendes Förderband in Betracht.The exemplary embodiment shown relates to the treatment of essentially cuboid packs 10, in particular coffee packs. Coming from a packaging or filling machine, these are transported in a continuous row 11 on a conveyor 12. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the packs 10 are arranged within the row 11 with small distances from one another. Alternatively, the packs 10 can be conveyed in a sealed position within the row 11. A continuously rotating conveyor belt is preferably considered as the conveyor 12.

Die Packungen 10 gelangen in den Bereich einer Wägestation 13. Hier werden jeweils einzelne Prüfpackungen 14 aus der Reihe 11 heraus-und einer Waage 15 (Präzisionswaage) zugeführt. Auf dieser wird das Gewicht der Prüfpackung 14 durch Wägen festgestellt. Im Anschluß daran wird die Prüfpackung 14 in den Förderfluß, also in die Reihe 11 zurücktransportiert.The packs 10 reach the area of a weighing station 13. Here, individual test packs 14 are fed out of the row 11 and fed to a scale 15 (precision scale). The weight of the test package 14 is determined on this by weighing. Following this, the test pack 14 is transported back into the conveying flow, ie into the row 11.

Der quergerichtete Transport der Prüfpackung 14 zur Waage 15 und zurück zum Förderer 12 erfolgt durch einen in beiden Richtungen wirkenden Schieber 16. Dieser ist im vorliegenden Fall durch einen Druckmittelzylinder 17 quer zur Förderrichtung der Packungen 10 (Pfeil 18) hin- und herbewegbar.The transverse transport of the test package 14 to the balance 15 and back to the conveyor 12 is carried out by a slide 16 acting in both directions. In the present case, this is movable back and forth by a pressure medium cylinder 17 transversely to the conveying direction of the packages 10 (arrow 18).

Am freien Ende einer Kolbenstange 19 des Druckmittelzylinders 17 ist bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel unmittelbar ein U-Halter 20 zur Aufnahme jeweils einer Prüfpackung 14 angebracht. Dieser U-Halter 20 ist so bemessen, daß dessen nach unten weisende Schenkel 21, 22 zu beiden Seiten der Packungen 10 der Reihe 11 sich erstrecken. Druckmittelzylinder 17, Kolbenstange 19 und U-Halter 20 sind so gelagert, daß letzterer oberhalb der Reihe 11 der Packungen 10 gehalten ist. Fig. 1 und 2 zeigen insoweit die Ausgangsstellung, in der die Packungen 10 ständig zwischen den Schenkeln 21 und 22 des U-Halters 20 hindurchgefördert werden.At the free end of a piston rod 19 of the pressure medium cylinder 17, a U-holder 20 for receiving a test package 14 is attached in the present embodiment. This U-holder 20 is dimensioned such that its legs 21, 22 pointing downward extend on both sides of the packs 10 of the row 11. Pressure cylinder 17, piston rod 19 and U-holder 20 are mounted so that the latter is held above the row 11 of the packs 10. 1 and 2 show the initial position, in which the packs 10 are continuously conveyed between the legs 21 and 22 of the U-holder 20.

Für den Quertransport einer Prüfpackung 14 wird der U-Halter entsprechend durch Einfahren der Kolbenstange 19 bewegt. Die Prüfpackung 14 wird dabei sowohl in der einen wie auch in der anderen Förderrichtung mitgenommen. Die Schenkel 21 bzw. 22 liegen dabei an einer von zwei einander gegenüberliegenden Seitenflächen 23, 24 der Prüfpackung 14 an.For the transverse transport of a test pack 14, the U-holder is moved accordingly by retracting the piston rod 19. The test pack 14 is taken along in one as well as in the other conveying direction. The legs 21 and 22 rest on one of two opposite side surfaces 23, 24 of the test pack 14.

Die Prüfpackung 14 ist am Schieber, nämlich im U-Halter 20, festklemmbar. Zu diesem Zweck sind an den Schenkeln 21, 22 des U-Halters 20 Klemmbacken 25, 26 angebracht. Diese sind als nach innen, nämlich zur Prüfpackung 14 vorstehende, etwa ballige Erhöhungen ausgebildet. Bei der gezeigten Ausführung ist die eine Klemmbacke 25 feststehend angeordnet, während die andere Klemmbacke 26 gegen die Seitenfläche 24 bewegbar ist, nämlich durch einen Druckmittelzylinder 27. Während des Hin- und Rücktransports wird die Prüfpackung 14 mit Hilfe der Klemmbacken 25, 26 im U-Halter 20 fixiert.The test pack 14 can be clamped on the slide, namely in the U-holder 20. For this purpose, 20 jaws 25, 26 are attached to the legs 21, 22 of the U-holder. These are designed as approximately spherical elevations which protrude inwards, namely to the test pack 14. In the embodiment shown, the one jaw 25 is arranged in a fixed manner, while the other jaw 26 is movable against the side surface 24, namely by means of a pressure medium cylinder 27. During the transport to and from the test package 14, the jaws 25, 26 are Holder 20 fixed.

Für die Durchführung der Förderbewegungen der Prüfpackung 14 werden besondere Maßnahmen im Bereich des Transports der Packungen 10 durchgeführt. Die Reihe 11 wird momentan angehalten, und zwar bei weiterlaufendem Förderer 12. Eine in Transportrichtung der Prüfpackung 14 folgende Packung 10a der Reihe 11 wird auf dem Förderer 12 angehalten, im vorliegenden Fall durch Festklemmen an einer feststehenden Seitenführung 28 des Förderers 12. Zu diesem Zweck ist im Bereich einer gegenüberliegenden Seitenführung 29 ein Druckmittelzylinder 30 angebracht, dessen Kolbenstange mit einer Druckbacke 31 ausgestattet ist. Diese wird gegen die zugekehrte Seitenfläche 23 der Packung 10a gefahren. Diese wiederum wird dadurch an der gegenüberliegenden Seitenführung 28 festgeklemmt. Die nachfolgenden Packungen 10 laufen gegen diese Packung 10a und werden so fixiert.For carrying out the conveying movements of the test pack 14, special measures are carried out in the area of the transport of the packs 10. Row 11 is currently stopped, with conveyor 12 still running. A pack 10a of row 11 following in the transport direction of test pack 14 is stopped on conveyor 12, in the present case by clamping onto a fixed side guide 28 of conveyor 12. For this purpose a pressure medium cylinder 30 is attached in the area of an opposite side guide 29, the piston rod of which is equipped with a pressure jaw 31. This is moved against the facing side surface 23 of the package 10a. This in turn is thereby clamped on the opposite side guide 28. The subsequent packs 10 run against this pack 10a and are thus fixed.

Die in Transportrichtung vor der Packung 10a liegende Prüfpackung 14 sowie die weiteren Packungen 10 werden währenddessen durch den Förderer 12 weitertransportiert. Wenn die Prüfpackung in den Bereich des Schiebers 16 gelangt, nämlich zwischen die Schenkel 21, 22 des U-Halters, wird sie durch die Klemmbacken 25, 26 innerhalb des U-Halters 20 festgehalten. Nunmehr kann die Querförderung der Prüfpackung 14 mit dem Schieber 16 stattfinden. Die Sperre im Bereich der Packung 10a wird sodann aufgehoben, und die Packungen 10 bzw. die Reihe 11 können weitergefördert werden. Zur Übergabe der Prüfpackung an die Waage 15.werden die Klemmbacken 25, 26 geöffnet, so daß die Prüfpackung 14 vom Schieber 16 freikommt. Nach Durchführung der Wägung wird die Prüfpackung 14 erneut durch den Schieber 16 bzw. den U-Halter 20 aufgenommen und durch die Klemmbacken 25, 26 in der beschriebenen Weise fixiert. Die Prüfpackung 14 wird sodann durch entsprechende Gegenbewegung des Schiebers 16 auf den Förderer 12 zurückgegeben. Zu diesem Zweck wird erneut die Reihe 11 mit den Packungen 10 in der beschriebenen Weise angehalten, so daß eine ausreichende Lükke für die Wiedereinführung der Prüfpackung 14 auf dem Förderer 12 entsteht. Nach Freigabe der Prüfpackung auf dem Förderer wird der Transport fortgesetzt. Der Schieber 16 bzw. der U-Halter 20 bleiben in der Ausgangsposition entsprechend Fig. 1 und 2, bis durch entsprechende Steuerung die nächstfolgende Kontrollwägung ausgelöst wird.The test pack 14 lying in front of the pack 10a in the transport direction and the further packs 10 are meanwhile transported further by the conveyor 12. When the test pack reaches the area of the slide 16, namely between the legs 21, 22 of the U-holder, it is held in place by the clamping jaws 25, 26 within the U-holder 20. The cross-conveying of the test package 14 can now take place with the slide 16. The block in the area of the pack 10a is then lifted and the packs 10 or row 11 can be conveyed further. To transfer the test package to the scale 15, the clamping jaws 25, 26 are opened so that the test package 14 is released from the slide 16. After the weighing has been carried out, the test package 14 is again picked up by the slide 16 or the U-holder 20 and fixed in the manner described by the clamping jaws 25, 26. The test pack 14 is then returned to the conveyor 12 by a corresponding counter-movement of the slide 16. For this purpose, the row 11 with the packs 10 is stopped again in the manner described, so that there is sufficient gap for the reintroduction of the test pack 14 on the conveyor 12. After the test pack has been released on the conveyor, the transport is continued. The slide 16 or the U-holder 20 remain in the starting position according to FIGS. 1 and 2 until the next checkweighing is triggered by appropriate control.

Besondere Maßnahmen sind im Bereich der Übergabe der Prüfpackung 14 an die Waage 15 vorgesehen.Special measures are provided in the area of the transfer of the test package 14 to the scale 15.

Die Prüfpackung 14 wird durch den Schieber 16 auf einem Zwischenhalter 32 abgesetzt. Dieser ist plattenförmig ausgebildet mit einer oberseitigen Lagerfläche 33 zur Aufnahme der Prüfpackung 14. Der Zwischenhalter 32 ist auf-und abbewegbar oberhalb der Waage 15 gelagert. Eine Vertikalführung hierfür ist in den Zeichnungen aus Gründen der Vereinfachung nicht dargestellt. Zur Durchführung der Auf-und Abbewegungen dient ein Druckmittelzylinder 34, dessen Kolbenstange 35 seitlich mit dem Zwischenhalter 32 verbunden ist.The test pack 14 is placed on an intermediate holder 32 by the slide 16. This is plate-shaped with an upper-side bearing surface 33 for receiving the test pack 14. The intermediate holder 32 is mounted above the balance 15 so that it can be moved up and down. A vertical guide for this is not shown in the drawings for reasons of simplification. A pressure medium cylinder 34, whose piston rod 35 is laterally connected to the intermediate holder 32, is used to carry out the up and down movements.

Der Zwischenhalter 32 befindet sich in Ausgangsstellung etwa in Höhe des Förderers 12, so daß wie beim vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel - eine unmittelbare Übergabe möglich ist. Zweckmäßigerweise erstreckt sich die Lagerfläche 33 dabei geringfügig unterhalb der Transportebene des Förderers 12, so daß eine verkantungsfreie Überführung der Prüfpackung 14 möglich ist. Diese wird in einer Position exakt oberhalb der Waage 15 auf dem Zwischenhalter 32 abgesetzt und mit diesem nach Freigabe durch den Schieber 16 der Waage 15 durch Abwärtsbewegung zugeführt.The intermediate holder 32 is in the starting position approximately at the level of the conveyor 12, so that, as in the present exemplary embodiment, an immediate transfer is possible. The bearing surface 33 expediently extends slightly below the transport plane of the conveyor 12, so that the test package 14 can be transferred without tilting. This is placed in a position exactly above the scale 15 on the intermediate holder 32 and, after being released by the slide 16, fed to the scale 15 by downward movement.

Die Waage 15 ist für die Automatisierung der geschilderten Vorgänge ebenfalls in besonderer Weise ausgebildet. Auf einem Waagendeckel 36, der von Haus aus zur Aufnahme des zu wägenden Gutes bestimmt ist, sind besondere Halter in Gestalt von nach oben ragenden Tragstiften 37 angeordnet. Bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel sind vier derartige Tragstifte in gleichen Abständen voneinander auf dem Waagendeckel 36 befestigt. Die Prüfpackung 14 wird auf den oberen, freien Enden der Tragstifte 37 zur Durchführung der Wägung abgesetzt. Zur Übergabe der Prüfpackung 14 an die Waage 15 durch den Zwischenhalter 32 ist dieser mit Ausnehmungen in Gestalt von Bohrungen 38 ausgerüstet. Diese befinden sich in der Vertikalachse der Tragstifte 37, so daß bei entsprechender Abwärtsbewegung des Zwischenhalters 32 die Tragstifte 37 durch die entsprechend dimensionierten Bohrungen 38 hindurchtreten. Infolge dieser Relativbewegung wird die Prüfpackung 14 bei fortgesetzter Absenkbewegung des Zwischenhalters 32 von den Tragstiften 37 übernommen und dabei zugleich von der Lagerfläche 33 abgehoben. In der Endstellung, in der die Wägung durchgeführt wird (Fig. 4), ruht die Prüfpackung 14 frei auf den Tragstiften 37. Infolge der präzisen Relativstellung und der völlig erschütterungsfreien, selbsttätigen bzw. mechanisierten Übergabe der Prüfpackung 14 an die Waage 15 kann nunmehr eine sehr exakte Wägung ausgeführt werden.The scale 15 is also designed in a special way for the automation of the processes described. Special holders in the form of support pins 37 projecting upwards are arranged on a balance cover 36, which is intended for receiving the goods to be weighed. In the present exemplary embodiment, four such support pins are attached to the balance cover 36 at equal distances from one another. The test package 14 is placed on the upper, free ends of the support pins 37 for carrying out the weighing. To transfer the test package 14 to the balance 15 through the intermediate holder 32, the latter is equipped with recesses in the form of bores 38. These are located in the vertical axis of the support pins 37, so that with a corresponding downward movement of the intermediate holder 32, the support pins 37 pass through the correspondingly dimensioned bores 38. As a result of this relative movement, the test package 14 is taken over by the support pins 37 when the intermediate holder 32 continues to lower, and at the same time is lifted off the bearing surface 33. In the end position, in which the weighing is carried out (FIG. 4), the test pack 14 rests freely on the support pins 37 very exact weighing.

Die Abmessungen der Tragstifte 37 einerseits und der Bohrungen 38 andererseits sowie die Bewegungsamplitude des Zwischenhalters 32 sind so aufeinander abgestimmt, daß in der unteren Endstellung des Zwischenhalters 32 nach Übergabe der Prüfpackung 14 an die Tragstifte 37 der Zwischenhalter 32 ohne Berührung mit der Prüfpackung 14, den Tragstiften 37 oder dem Waagendeckel 36 gehalten ist. Die Wagung kann somit ohne entsprechende Beeinflussung ausgeführt werden.The dimensions of the support pins 37 on the one hand and the bores 38 on the other hand and the amplitude of movement of the intermediate holder 32 are coordinated so that in the lower end position of the intermediate holder 32 after transfer of the test pack 14 to the support pins 37 of the intermediate holder 32 without contact with the test pack 14, the Support pins 37 or the balance cover 36 is held. The venture can thus be carried out without corresponding influencing.

Der Waagendeckel 36 besteht hier aus einem aufrechten Zylinderstück 39 und einer auf diesem angeordneten Tragplatte 40. Letztere dient zur Aufnahme der Tragstifte 37. Die Anordnung derselben ist so getroffen, daß sie überwiegend innerhalb des durch das Zylinderstück 39 beschriebenen Kreises liegen. Dadurch ergibt sich eine statisch einwandfreie, genaue Übertragung der auf die Tragstifte 37 einwirkenden Belastung an die Waage 15.The balance cover 36 here consists of an upright cylinder piece 39 and a support plate 40 arranged thereon. The latter serves to receive the support pins 37. The arrangement of the latter is such that they lie predominantly within the circle described by the cylinder piece 39. This results in a statically perfect, accurate transmission of the load acting on the support pins 37 to the scale 15.

Nach Durchführung der Wägung wird die Prüfpackung 14 durch Aufwärtsbewegung des Zwischenhalters 32 von den Tragstiften 37 abgehoben und in den Bereich des Schiebers 16 bzw. des U-Halters zurückgefördert. Die Aufnahme der Prüfpackung 14 durch den U-Halter 20 erfolgt in der beschriebenen Weise. Bei der Rückführung der Prüfpackung 14 zum Förderer 12 gleitet diese auf dem Zwischenhalter 32 bzw. der Lagerfläche 33. Während dieser Phase wird der Zwischenhalter 32 zweckmäßigerweise auf einem höheren Niveau fixiert, derart, daß sich die Lagerfläche 33 geringfügig oberhalb der Ebene des Förderers 12 erstreckt, um eine verkantungsfreie Rückführung der Prüfpackung 14 zu gewährleisten. Anstelle des entsprechend bemessenen Zwischenhalters 32 können zur Überführung der Prüfpackungen 14 zwischen Förderer 12 und Zwischenhalter 32 andere, gesonderte, insbesondere bewegbare Übertragungsorgane (Übertragungswippe) angeordnet sein.After the weighing has been carried out, the test package 14 is lifted from the support pins 37 by the upward movement of the intermediate holder 32 and conveyed back into the area of the slide 16 or the U-holder. The test pack 14 is received by the U-holder 20 in the manner described. When the test pack 14 is returned to the conveyor 12, it slides on the intermediate holder 32 or the bearing surface 33. During this phase, the intermediate holder 32 is expediently fixed at a higher level such that the bearing surface 33 extends slightly above the level of the conveyor 12 in order to ensure that the test package 14 is returned without tilting. Instead of the correspondingly dimensioned intermediate holder 32, other, separate, in particular movable, transmission members (transmission rocker) can be arranged between the conveyor 12 and the intermediate holder 32 for transferring the test packs 14.

Den einzelnen Aggregaten der Vorrichtung sind geeignete Steuereinrichtungen zugeordnet, z. B. Lichtschranken, Mikroschalter etc., die durch entsprechende Relativanordnung den Bewegungsablauf in der beschriebenen Folge steuern.Suitable control devices are assigned to the individual units of the device, e.g. B. light barriers, microswitches etc., the control the sequence of movements in the sequence described by appropriate relative arrangement.
