Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Stapeln von flachen Gegenständen, vorzugsweise von von einer Kunststoffschlauch- oder -halbschlauchbahn abgeschweißten Doppelbeuteln mit im Bereich von deren Mittellinie liegenden Öffnungsrändern, nach dem Oberbegriff des patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a device for stacking flat objects, preferably double bags welded from a plastic tubular or semi-tubular web, with opening edges lying in the region of their center line, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
Bei einer aus der DE-GM 81 28 146 bekannten Vorrichtung dieser Art werden die von einem Folienschlauch durch Querschweißtrennnähte abgeschweißten Doppelbeutel auf von endlosen Ketten getragenen Stapelplatten abgelegt, die zur Aufnahme der Beutel beidseits ihrer Längsmittellinie eine Reihe von Stapelstiften und/oder federbelastete Klemmbügel aufweisen, die die Stapel nach ihrer Bildung an ihren in Förderrichtung mittleren vorderen Randbereichen auf dem Stapelförderer festklemmen. Zur Tennung der Beutelstapel ist ein beheiztes heb- und absenkbares Messer vorgesehen, das die in der Trennstation befindlichen Stapel zwischen den Reihen der Stapelstifte durchtrennt, wobei die Stapelplatte das Widerlager für das Trennmesser bildet. Da die Stapelplatten zugleich auch die Widerlager für die beheizten Messer bilden, müssen diese relativ groß und schwer ausgebildet werden. Die bekannte Vorrichtung ist daher verhältnismäßig aufwendig, weil die endlosen Ketten im Abstand der von diesen transportierten Stapel mit Stapelplatten versehen werden müssen, die den Anforderungen als Widerlagerplatten für das Schneidmesser genügen müssen.In a device of this type known from DE-GM 81 28 146, the double bags welded from a film tube by transverse weld separating seams are placed on stacking plates carried by endless chains, which have a row of stacking pins and / or spring-loaded clamps for receiving the bags on both sides of their longitudinal center line, which clamp the stacks after they have been formed on their central front edge regions in the conveying direction on the stacker. To separate the stack of bags, a heated knife can be raised and lowered, which cuts the stack located in the separation station between the rows of stacking pins, the Stacking plate forms the abutment for the cutting knife. Since the stacking plates also form the abutments for the heated knives, these have to be made relatively large and heavy. The known device is therefore relatively expensive because the endless chains must be provided with stacking plates at a distance from the stacks transported by them, which must meet the requirements as abutment plates for the cutting knife.
Werden die Beutelstapel durch an deren vorderen Rändern angreifende Klemmittel auf dem Stapelförderer gehalten, muß während des Stapelns ein paar von Klemmstiften vorgesehen werden, die im Wechsel oder gleichzeitig nach Ablage eines jeden Doppelbeutels angehoben und wieder abgesenkt werden, um diesen auf dem sich bildenden Stapel festzulegen.If the stacks of bags are held on the stacking conveyor by clamping means acting on their front edges, a pair of clamping pins must be provided during stacking, which are raised and lowered alternately or simultaneously after each double bag has been deposited in order to fix it on the stack that is being formed .
Der die fertigen Stapel festhaltende, an deren mittleren vorderen Randbereichen angreifende Klemmbügel beindert jedoch das mittige Trennen der Stapel durch das Trennmesser in zwei Teilstapel, so daß zweckmäßigerweise wiederum beidseits der Trennlinie durch Stapellöcher greifende Stapelstifte vorgesehen sind, die insbesondere auch die Teilstapel halten.However, the clamp that holds the finished stack and engages the central front edge areas prevents the central separation of the stack by the separating knife into two partial stacks, so that expediently stacking pins are provided on both sides of the dividing line through stack holes, which in particular also hold the partial stack.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs angegebenen Art zu schaffen, deren Stapelförderer nur geringeren Beanspruchungen gewachsen zu sein braucht, so daß sich die Vorrichtung leichter und damit wirtschaftlicher bauen läßt. Weiterhin soll die Vorrichtung zur Fixierung der fertigen Stapel nur Klemmittel aufweisen, die den mittigen Trennschnitt nicht behindern und auch die getrennten Teilstapel sicher auf dem Stapelförderer haltern.The object of the invention is to provide a device of the type mentioned, the stacking conveyor need only be able to cope with less stress, so that the device can be built more easily and therefore more economically. Furthermore, the device for fixing the finished stack should only have clamping means that do not hinder the central separating cut and also securely hold the separated partial stack on the stack conveyor.
