Abstract

1. A method for producing a package containing at least one row of disk-shaped objects (G), especially biscuits, adjoining each other on their flat sides, according to which method the objects (G) counted and grouped for packaging are raised parallel to their flat sides into an input station (A), pushed together with a portion of a wrapping sheet (33) at right angles to their flat sides through upper and lower folding members (36, 37) into an intermediate station (B), tilted upwards in the intermediate station (B), where a longitudinal fin seam is sealed, while a feed member (41) in the meantime returns to its original position, the wrapped objects (G) then being tilted back and pushed out of the intermediate station (B) by the feed member (41) and wedge folds then being formed by folding members (41c, 48) of the feed member (41) and an output station (C), whereafter the two transverse fin seams are sealed, such that the roots of all the seams lie in a common plane.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Verpackung aus einem flexiblen Einschlagmaterial gemäss dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1, sowie ein Verfahren zu ihrer Herstellung gemäss dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 8.The present invention relates to a packaging made of a flexible wrapping material according to the preamble of independent patent claim 1, and to a method for its production according to the preamble of independent patent claim 8.

Derartige Verpackungen sind bekannt. Beispielsweise ist in der CH-A 558 283 eine mit einer Längsnaht versehene Verpackungshülle mit einem Aufreissstreifen beschrieben. Demnach ist die Längsnaht auf der Flachseite der Packung angeordnet. Damit geht eine der beiden Hauptflächen für Werbung verloren. Die Packung erweckt dadurch den Eindruck von Vorder- und Hinterseite und der Lappen am Aufreissstreifen befindet sich hinten. Die Verbraucher suchen denselben jedoch nicht hinten sondern allenfalls seitlich. Eine solche Verpackung widerspricht damit den Gepflogenheiten der Verbraucher.Such packaging is known. For example, CH-A 558 283 describes a packaging sleeve provided with a longitudinal seam and a tear strip. Accordingly, the longitudinal seam is arranged on the flat side of the pack. One of the two main areas for advertising is lost. The pack gives the impression of the front and back and the tab on the tear strip is on the back. However, consumers do not look for it in the back but rather at most sideways. Such packaging contradicts the custom of the consumer.

Wenn die Gegenstände scheibenförmige Biskuits sind, so werden diese üblicherweise kanalisiert, um dann als abgezählte Gruppe, die allenfalls noch auf ein bestimmtes minimales Gewicht ausgeglichen ist, einer Verpackungsmaschine zugeführt. Dieser werden sie dann in üblicher Anordnung, wie dies beispielsweise auch in der CH-A 574 852 deutlich dargestellt ist, hochkant aneinander anliegend der Verpackungsmaschine zugeführt.If the objects are disk-shaped biscuits, they are usually channeled in order to then be fed to a packaging machine as a counted group, which at most is still balanced to a certain minimum weight. They are then fed to the packaging machine lying upright against one another in a conventional arrangement, as is clearly shown, for example, in CH-A 574 852.

Wenn bei einer Verpackung gemäss der zuletzt genannten CH-A 574 852 ein Aufreissstreifen in der Weise wie in der zuvor genannten CH-A 558 283 angebracht wird. so teilt sich die Packung nach dem Aufreissen in zwei Teile und in beiden Teilen liegen die Gegenstände parallel zur Oeffnung, aus der sie sich, ohne die Verpackung weiter aufzureissen, nur schwer entnehmen lassen.If a tear strip is attached to packaging in accordance with the last-mentioned CH-A 574 852 in the manner as in the previously mentioned CH-A 558 283. the package is divided into two parts after being torn open, and in both parts the objects lie parallel to the opening, from which it is difficult to remove them without tearing open the packaging.

Es ist deshalb eine Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Verpackung zu schaffen, bei der die genannten Nachteile nicht zutreffen. Erfindungsgemäss wird dies mit einer Verpackung erreicht, die die Merkmale im kennzeichnenden Teil des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs 1 aufweist. Ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer solchen Verpackung ist im unabhängigen Patentanspruch 8 gekennzeichnet.It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a packaging in which the disadvantages mentioned do not apply. This is achieved according to the invention with a packaging which has the features in the characterizing part of independent patent claim 1. A method for producing such packaging is characterized in independent claim 8.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel für eine Verpackung nach der Erfindung und eine beispielsweise Vorrichtung zur Herstellung derselben werden nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnung erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 eine perspektivische Ansicht einer erfindungsgemässen Verpackung mit andeutungsweise dargestellten Gegenständen in einer ersten Ausführungsform,
  • Fig. 2 eine perspektivische Ansicht einer Verpackung ähnlich Fig. 1 jedoch in einer zweiten Ausführungsform, und
  • Fig. 5 einen Aufriss einer Verpackungsmaschine in schematischer Darstellungsweise.
An embodiment of a package according to the invention and an example of an apparatus for producing the same are explained below with reference to the drawing. Show it:
  • 1 is a perspective view of a packaging according to the invention with objects indicated in a hint in a first embodiment,
  • Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a package similar to Fig. 1 but in a second embodiment, and
  • Fig. 5 is an elevation of a packaging machine in a schematic representation.

Die beiden Verpackungen 10 und 20 gemäss Fig. 1 und 2 haben gemeinsam, dass die Flossennähte, nämlich die beiden Endflossen 11, 12 und 21, 22 sowie die Längsflosse 13, 23 zumindest auf der Innenseite der Verpackung wenigstens angenähert in einer gemeinsamen Ebene liegen.1 and 2 have in common that the fin seams, namely the two end fins 11, 12 and 21, 22 and the longitudinal fin 13, 23 are at least approximately in a common plane, at least on the inside of the packaging.

Die Gegenstände G sind mit ihren Stirnseiten gegen die Endflossen 11, 12 und 21, 22 gerichtet, und die Flachseite ist gegen die Längsnaht 13, 23 gerichtet. Wenn nun, wie üblich, die Aufreisshilfe, wie ein Aufreissstreifen 24, senkrecht zur Längsnaht 23 in Fig. 2 angeordnet ist, ist leicht einzusehen, dass nach dem Entfernen der Oeffnungspartie 25 die Gegenstände G griffbereit aus der Verpackung 20 vorstehen. Obwohl nicht gezeichnet, kann auch die Verpackung 10 mit einem gleichartigen Aufreissstreifen versehen sein.The objects G are directed with their end faces against the end fins 11, 12 and 21, 22, and the flat side is directed against the longitudinal seam 13, 23. If, as usual, the tear-open aid, such as a tear-open strip 24, is arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal seam 23 in FIG. 2, it can easily be seen that after the opening portion 25 has been removed the Protect objects G from packaging 20 within reach. Although not shown, the packaging 10 can also be provided with a similar tear strip.

Bei der Verpackung 10 (Fig. 1) werden die Gegenstände G in geordneter Weise mit einem Abschnitt eines flexiblen Einschlagmaterials, beispielsweise einer Klarsichtfolie, auf drei Seiten umhüllt. Auf der Längsseite wird dann die Längsnaht 13 gebildet. Damit sind die Gegenstände G derart gehaltert, dass diese halbfertige Verpackung in eine Siegelstation zur Bildung der Zwikelfalten 14, 15 und nachfolgender Siegelung der Quernähte 11, 12 weitertransportiert werden kann, ohne dass die Gegenstände mittels ein- und ausfahrbarer Halter in ihrer Lage gehaltert werden müssten.In the packaging 10 (FIG. 1), the articles G are encased in an orderly manner on three sides with a section of flexible wrapping material, for example a transparent film. The longitudinal seam 13 is then formed on the long side. The objects G are thus held in such a way that this semi-finished packaging can be transported further into a sealing station for forming the double folds 14, 15 and subsequent sealing of the transverse seams 11, 12, without the objects having to be held in their position by means of retractable and extendable holders .

Zum Unterschied zu dieser Verpackung 10 sind gemäss Fig. 2 bei der Verpackung 20 die Quernähte 21, 22 an der Stirnwand befestigt. Dies kann durch Anbringen eines Klebers geschehen. Der Kleber kann in Form von diskreten Punkten oder als Leimlinie aufgebracht werden.In contrast to this packaging 10, according to FIG. 2, the transverse seams 21, 22 are fastened to the end wall in the packaging 20. This can be done by applying an adhesive. The adhesive can be applied in the form of discrete dots or as a glue line.

Durch die in Fig. 3 schematisch dargestellte Verpackungsmaschine sollen Gruppen von Gegenständen G mit einer Einschlagfolie versehen werden. Die Gegenstände G werden mittels eines vertikalen Stössels 32 in eine Eingangsstation A angehoben und liegen dort mit der Flachseite senkrecht zur Zeichenebene auf dem Stössel 32. Diese Station befindet sich vor einer Einschlagfolie 33, die durch Messer 34 von einer Folienbahn 35 abgeschnitten wird.The packaging machine shown schematically in FIG. 3 is intended to provide groups of objects G with a wrapping film. The objects G are lifted into an entrance station A by means of a vertical ram 32 lie there with the flat side perpendicular to the plane of the plunger 32. This station is located in front of a wrapping film 33 which is cut off from a film web 35 by knives 34.

Hinter der Einschlagfolie 33 sind bekannte ortsfeste Faltelemente 36, 37 angeordnet, durch die die Einschlagfolie 33 U-förmig um die Gegenstände G gelegt wird, wenn diese mittels des Stössels 39 und der Stösselauflage 39a, der sich entlang der Schiene 38 bewegt, zwischen den Faltelementen 36, 37 hindurchgestossen werden und damit in die Zwischenstation B gelangen.Known stationary folding elements 36, 37 are arranged behind the wrapping film 33, through which the wrapping film 33 is placed in a U-shaped manner around the objects G when the latter is moved between the folding elements by means of the plunger 39 and the plunger support 39a, which moves along the rail 38 36, 37 are pushed through and thus reach intermediate station B.

In einer zweiten Führungsbahn 40 ist ein Vorschuborgan 41 horizontal hin- und herbeweglich. Dieses besitzt einen Pufferbalken 41b aus weichem Werkstoff als Gegenhalter für die Gegenstände G, einen Transportbalken 41a für den späteren Weitertransport und an beiden Enden je ein Faltorgan 41c zur Bildung der Zwickelfalten 14, 15 (Fig. 1).In a second guideway 40, a feed member 41 can be moved horizontally back and forth. This has a buffer bar 41b made of soft material as a counter-holder for the objects G, a transport bar 41a for later transportation and a folding element 41c at each end to form the gusset folds 14, 15 (FIG. 1).

Die Zwischenstation B ist als eine Kammer ausgebildet, die einen Boden 42 und einen oberen Träger 43 aufweist, der mit einem Hebelarm 44 verbunden ist. Dieser ist an einem Achszapfen 15 befestigt, um die teilverpackten Gegenstände allenfalls auf einen zweiten Weg zu befördern. Oben am Träger 43 befinden sich Blattfedern 43a, um die Gegenstände G in der Kammer zu haltern.The intermediate station B is designed as a chamber which has a bottom 42 and an upper support 43 which is connected to a lever arm 44. This is fastened to an axle pin 15 in order to convey the partially packaged objects at most in a second way. At the top of the carrier 43 there are leaf springs 43a in order to hold the objects G in the chamber.

An dieser Stelle zeigt sich ein weiterer Vorteil der vorgeschlagenen Anordnung der Gegenstände G in der Verpackung, indem sie weder auf der Seite gegen den Betrachter zu noch auf der entgegengesetzten Seite herausfallen können, so dass keine zusätzlichen seitlichen Haltemittel mit speziellen Antriebsmitteln benötigt werden, auch wenn es vorgesehen sein sollte, die Gegenstände mit dem Arm 44 zu transportieren, beispielsweise zu Bildung der Längsnaht.At this point, another advantage of the proposed arrangement of the objects G in the packaging can be seen in that they can neither fall out on the side towards the viewer nor on the opposite side, so that no additional lateral holding means with special drive means are required, even if it should be provided to transport the objects with the arm 44, for example to form the longitudinal seam.

Wenn das Zufuhrorgan 39 einen Gegenstand G 42, 43 einschiebt, klemmt am Anfang des Vorschubes der Pufferbalken 41b die Einschlagfolie 33 gegen die Vorderseite der Gegenstände G. Das Vorschuborgan 41 bewegt sich dann weiter und schiebt die Gegenstände G nach rechts in die Ausgangsstation C.When the feed member 39 inserts an object G 42, 43, at the start of the feed of the buffer bars 41b, the wrapping film 33 clamps against the front of the objects G. The feed member 41 then moves on and pushes the objects G to the right into the exit station C.

Wenn sich das Vorschuborgan 41 in der strichpunktiert angedeuteten Lage befindet und neue Gegenstände G mit nach hinten abstehenden Lappen 33a in der Kammer 42, 43 sitzen, werden diese nach oben verschwenkt, wo sich die Siegelstation zur Bildung der Längsnaht in üblicher Ausführungsform befindet. In der Zwischenzeit kehrte das Vorschuborgan 41 in seine Ausgangsstellung zurück und der Arm 44 kann die Kammer 42, 43 wieder in die Zwischenstation B bringen.When the feed member 41 is in the position indicated by the dash-dotted lines and new objects G are seated in the chamber 42, 43 with tabs 33a projecting to the rear, these are pivoted upward, where the sealing station for forming the longitudinal seam is located in the usual embodiment. In the meantime, the feed member 41 has returned to its starting position and the arm 44 can bring the chambers 42, 43 back into the intermediate station B.

Beim Herausstossen der Gegenstände G aus der Zwischenstation B werden die Zwickelfalten 14, 15 durch die Faltorgane 41c, 48 gebildet. In der Ausgangsstation C werden die eingeschlagenen Gegenstände G einem Förderband 49 übergeben, um einer nicht dargestellten Station zur Bildung der Quernähte 21, 22 weitergegeben zu werden.When objects G are pushed out of intermediate station B the gusset folds 14, 15 are formed by the folding members 41c, 48. In the exit station C, the wrapped articles G are transferred to a conveyor belt 49 in order to be passed on to a station (not shown) for forming the transverse seams 21, 22.

Offensichtlich hat die Anordnung der Gegenstände G in der Verpackung gemäss Fig. 1 und 2 Vorteile, indem nämlich die Vorrichtung zum Falten der Folie 33 um die Gegenstände G herum und die Vorrichtungen zum Bilden der Nähte sehr viel einfacher ausgebildet sein können, als dies sonst, beispielsweise bei einer Anordnung gemäss der genannten CH-A 574 852, der Fall sein müssteObviously, the arrangement of the articles G in the packaging according to FIGS. 1 and 2 has advantages in that the device for folding the film 33 around the articles G and the devices for forming the seams can be made much simpler than is otherwise the case, for example, in the case of an arrangement according to CH-A 574 852, which should be the case
