Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for cross-cutting tubular webs of thermoplastic material in the production of bags and for stacking the bags, with a pair of preferred rollers which cyclically advance the tubular web by a length of a web section, a heated cross-cutting knife with counter-pressure bar and arranged parallel to a cross-welding device pressure bar lowering onto the separate bag or bags.
  • the front end of a tubular web is stretched out by a blow air stream generated by blow air nozzles arranged on both sides thereof by lowering a cross-welding bar and a cross-cutting knife, the front web section, each forming a bag, is cut off and, in addition to the cut, a cross-weld seam is attached to the front end of the web, which forms the bottom seam of the bag cut off in the following cycle.
  • the cross-cutting knives are also heated due to their proximity to the heated sealing bar, when cutting multilayer foils, for example a tubular web, the foil webs may become blocked on the cut surface, which is particularly undesirable if the cut causes the opening edges of a bag should be formed. Furthermore, the cut surfaces of the film web can stick to the cutting knife, which can result in malfunctions.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to improve a device of the type specified at the outset (according to DE-A-2 254 448) in such a way that the cut surfaces of multi-layered webs, for example tubular webs, cannot block with one another due to the separating cut and that gluing continues of cutting surfaces on the cutting knife is avoided.
  • this object is achieved in that two pressure bars, which can be lowered and raised on the separate section or sections, are provided in parallel, of which the front end in the advancing direction, the web end carried between the cutting knife and the counter pressure bar, against a base in a plane lower than the counter pressure bar clamped and the pressure bar arranged between the cutting knife and the front pressure bar clamps the web clamped between the pair of preferred rollers and the front pressure bar before the heated cutting knife cuts through them, and that below the pressure bar tensioning the web a needle row is arranged on a carrier on which the with corresponding cutouts or holes, the section edges needles after the separating cut.
  • the first pressure bar lowers first, so that the web section on which the transverse welding and cross cutting takes place between the pair of preferred rollers and the Print bar is clamped. If the second pressure bar is now lowered just in front of the counter pressure bar, the web is stretched elastically, since the counter pressure bar forms a step with the lower level in which the front web end is clamped. If the heated knife is now provided with a cross section by the heated knife, the cut surfaces snap away from the heated knife.
  • the upper layer of the web first comes off the cutting knife and then the lower one. Since the cut surfaces of these strips separate from the cutting knife one after the other when cutting multilayer strips, these are also moved relative to one another and pulled away from one another, so that sticking or blocking of these cut surfaces is precluded.
  • the elastic tension additionally leads to the rear ends of the bags or sections being hit smoothly on the stack being formed.
  • the pressure bar that excites the web after it is clamped can also simultaneously function as a slider needling the section edges onto a row of needles for fixing them.
  • the preferred rollers 1 and 2 advance the plastic tubular web 3 in cycles by one bag length and clamp them firmly between them. Blown air nozzles, not shown, can be provided for stretching the front end of the web. If a sufficiently long piece of tubular web has now been advanced by the preferred rollers 1 and 2, the never existing from the pressure bar 4 lowers first derhalter on a counter bearing, so that the web is clamped in the manner shown in FIG. 2 between the preferred rollers 1, 2 on the one hand and the pressure bar 4 and the counter bearing 5. Immediately thereafter, the pressure bar 6 moves from the position shown in FIG. 1 into the position shown in FIG. 2 and presses the web downward so strongly that the web lies with tension over the groove 7 of the counter pressure bar 8. The web 3 is then cut by lowering the upper separating knife holder 9 with the transverse cutting knife 10 attached to it, and simultaneously or immediately thereafter the bottom seam is formed by the permanently heated pair of welding jaws 11.
  • the pressure bar 6 moves into the position shown in FIG. 3 and thereby presses the bag separated from the web onto the support bar 13 connected to the counter pressure bar 8.
  • the welding jaws 11 are still closed and the transverse welding seam is formed.
  • the support bar 13 has through holes through which needles 12 protrude upward, so that the separated bag is needled at the same time.
  • the needles 12 are firmly connected to the angled profile of the counter bearing 5.
  • the pressure bar 6 also has bores so that the individual bags can be pushed onto the needles 12 against the support bar 13.
  • the indentation 14 under the groove 7 in the counter pressure bar 8 serves for the compression-free storage of the bag edges.
  • the individual elements then move back from the position shown in FIG. 3 to the position shown in FIG. 1, so that the web 3 can be advanced by a further section length, if necessary with the aid of blowing air nozzles, from the preferred rollers 1, 2 .
  • the counter bearing 5 moves down, the needles 12 being pulled out of the stack of bags.
  • the tipper roller 15, which is controlled by the piston-cylinder unit 16 lowers onto the conveyor belt 17, which is then switched on for the removal of the stacks 18 formed.
