Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for packaging palletized stacks of goods with a heat shrink film, in which the stack of goods is initially exposed on its underside, in particular raised and wrapped with the heat shrink film in such a way that its lower edge protrudes over the stack of goods, this lower edge in the released state of the stack of goods is initially heated more than the rest of the heat shrink film to the shrink temperature and is thereby placed under the underside of the stack of goods by flow forces of a hot gas stream generated by a blower, and the rest of the heat shrink film is then shrunk.
  • the invention also relates to a device for carrying out the method with a hood pulling station, a hot gas shrinking device arranged below the hood pulling station, comprising a ring burner surrounding the stack of goods and movable vertically along the stack of goods, and with a base for the stack of goods.
  • a method of the type described above is known from US-PS 38 07 126.
  • the stack of goods arranged on a pallet is brought with the aid of a conveyor into a shrinking oven in which the heat shrink film is shrunk with hot air.
  • the hot air is conveyed through the shrinking furnace with a blower arranged on the ceiling of the shrinking furnace in such a way that the hot air first acts on the sides of the stack of material and can then flow out again through openings under the pallet.
  • a device in which a shrinking device comprising a ring burner which surrounds the stack of goods and can be moved vertically along the stack of goods is arranged below a hood pulling station is known from WO 82/03 833. Furthermore, from FR-OS 21 89 264 a shrinking station is known in which a lifting platform is arranged below the ring burner, which lifts the stack of goods so that the edge of the heat shrink film hanging under the pallet can be shrunk under the pallet. In another shrinking device with ring torch known from FR-OS 20 20 279, the stack of goods is placed on a firm, air-permeable surface.
  • the object of the invention is to further develop the above-mentioned method in such a way that the shrinking result at the lower edge of the shrink film is significantly improved and can be carried out using a device which is simple and space-saving.
  • This object is achieved in that only the lower edge of the heat shrink film is heated to shrink temperature with hot gas from a ring burner surrounding the stack and is sucked against the underside of the stack of goods by the suction flow of a suction fan arranged under the stack of goods, that the stack of goods initially lifted with the edge of the heat-shrink film which is still at the shrink temperature is placed on a base, and that the remaining heat-shrink film is then shrunk with the hot gas of the ring burner during a relative movement between the ring burner and the stack of goods.
  • the lower edge of the shrink film can then hardly be pulled up by the further shrinking process.
  • the fixation of the lower edge after folding over against the underside of the stack of goods is further improved if the stack of goods initially lifted is placed on a base with the edge of the heat-shrink film still at the shrinking temperature.
  • a device is suitable for carrying out the method, which includes a hood pulling station, a hot gas shrinking device arranged underneath the hood pulling station, comprising a ring burner surrounding the stack of goods and movable vertically along the stack of goods, and a support for the stack of goods, the support being a conveyor and below of the ring torch, a lifting platform and a suction fan are arranged in the area of the lifting platform.
  • the lifting platform for lifting the Gustapels has lifting pistons which can be moved into openings on the underside of a stack of goods up to the underside of the surface of the stack of goods. The lifting stamps then no longer hinder the shrinking of the lower edge of the shrink film.
  • the device according to the invention is illustrated in more detail using an exemplary embodiment. It shows a shrinking station 1, which consists of a mast bridge 2 and a ring burner 3.
  • the mast bridge 2 has two masts 4 arranged side by side in a plane perpendicular to the plane of the drawing, of which only the front one in this view can be seen here. Both masts 4 are connected to one another at their upper ends via a transverse yoke 5.
  • each mast 4 On each mast 4, a drive is guided so that it can move vertically, the guidance being carried out via rollers 7, 8.
  • the vertical movement of the carriage 6 is effected via a circulating chain 9, the deflection at the lower and upper ends of the mast 4 taking place via corresponding chain wheels 10, 11.
  • a corresponding drive is also arranged on the mast, which is not visible here, the two drives 6 being synchronized with one another in such a way that they are always at the same height.
  • the drives 6 are connected to one another by the ring burner 3, which has a rectangular, frame-like shape, the area enclosed by it being large enough so that the ring burner 3 can be moved vertically over a stack of goods.
  • Such a stack of goods 12 is located below the ring burner 3 on a roller conveyor 13.
  • the stack of goods 12 consists of a conventional pallet 14 and the goods 15 stacked thereon.
  • lifting platform or lifting device 16 which is shown here schematically as a scissor lift.
  • lifting rams 17, 18 project upwards through corresponding gaps in the roller conveyor path 13 between the base strips 19 of the pallet 14.
  • a schematically illustrated suction fan 20 is also arranged.
  • the method according to the invention proceeds with this device as follows.
  • the ring burner 3 is lowered to the level of the roller conveyor path 13 by a corresponding movement of the drives 6. Then the stack of goods 12 is raised by lifting the lifting rams 17, 18 by means of the lifting device 16 by approximately the height of the pallet 14, for example by approximately 15 cm. Subsequently, the shrink film is pulled down with a hood covering device known per se, not shown here, from above over the stack of goods 12 so far that the lower edge of the shrink film projects downwards over the underside of the stack of goods 12 or the pallet 14. The hood pulling machine is then moved back again.
  • the lower edge of the shrink film is subjected to hot gas through the ring burner 3, so that it heats up to its shrink temperature and contracts under the underside of the pallet 14. This is supported by the suction fan 18.
  • the stack of goods 12 is lowered again onto the roller conveyor 13 while the edge of the shrink film is still heated, whereby the hot edge between the rollers of the roller conveyor 13 and the underside of the pallet 14 is pressed together with the effect that the individual layers of this edge are welded together. This gives the lower edge of the shrink film an extremely good hold.
  • the vertical movement of the ring burner 3 also begins to move upwards.
  • the shrink film contracts strongly over the side surfaces.
  • the ring burner 3 is stopped in order to cause shrinkage on the top of the stack of goods 12.
  • the stack of goods 12 can then be moved out of the shrinking station 1 via the roller conveyor path 13. The procedure described above is then repeated for a new stack of goods.
