Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Herstellen von Verpackungen, insbesondere Folien-Verpackungen für Papier-Taschentücher, mit einer einen außen aufliegenden Klebestreifen oder ein Klebeetikett aufweisenden Öffnungshilfe, wobei die Klebeetiketten bzw. die Klebestreifen von einer vorzugsweise eine einseitige Kleberbeschichtung aufweisenden Materialbahn abgetrennt werden, deren Breite mindestens der Abmessung von zwei nebeneinanderliegenden Klebeetiketten bzw. Klebestreifen entspricht und wobei jeweils paarweise positionsgerecht einander gegenüberliegende, in zwei Reihen zugeförderte Verpackungen gleichzeitig mit einem Klebeetikett bzw. Klebestreifen versehen werden.The invention relates to a method for producing packaging, in particular foil packaging for paper handkerchiefs, with an opening aid having an external adhesive strip or an adhesive label, the adhesive labels or the adhesive strips being separated from a material web, preferably having a one-sided adhesive coating, the web of which is separated Width corresponds at least to the dimension of two adjacent adhesive labels or adhesive strips and, in each case, pairs of oppositely positioned packs which are fed in two rows are simultaneously provided with an adhesive label or adhesive strips.

Weiterhin betrifft die Erfindung eine Vorrichtung zum Herstellen von Klebeetiketten bzw. Klebestreifen und Anbringen derselben an einer Verpackung, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Vorrichtungsanspruchs. Die vorliegende Anmeldung ist eine Teilungsanmeldung zu der unter der Nummer EP-A-0 396 967 veröffentlichten Anmeldung. Auf den Inhalt der genannten Stammanmeldung wird Bezug genommen.Furthermore, the invention relates to a device for producing adhesive labels or adhesive strips and attaching them to a packaging, according to the preamble of the independent device claim. The present application is a divisional application to the application published under number EP-A-0 396 967. Reference is made to the content of the parent application mentioned.

Papier-Taschentücher werden üblicherweise in quaderförmigen Verpackungen aus sehr dünnen Kunststoff-Folien angeboten. Eine derartige Verpackung enthält üblicherweise zehn gefaltete Papier-Taschentücher.Paper handkerchiefs are usually offered in cuboid packaging made from very thin plastic films. Such packaging typically contains ten folded paper handkerchiefs.

Seit einiger Zeit sind die Folien-Verpackungen mit Aufreißhilfen ausgestattet, und zwar überwiegend in wiederverschließbarer Ausführung. Bei einer besonders verbreiteten Folien-Verpackung dieser Art ist im Bereich einer großflächigen Vorderwand der Verpackung eine durch Perforationslinien begrenzte Aufreißlasche angeordnet. Diese erstreckt sich in Richtung zu einer oberen, kleinflächigen Stirnwand. Ein Endbereich der zungenförmigen Aufreißlasche ist mit einem Klebestreifen versehen, der mit einem klebefreien Griffende von der Vorderwand abgezogen werden kann unter Mitnahme der Aufreißlasche. Dadurch wird eine obere Entnahmeöffnung für die Taschentücher frei, siehe beispielsweise die DE-U-7 934 619.For some time now, the film packaging has been equipped with tear-open aids, mostly in a resealable version. In the case of a particularly widespread film packaging of this type, a tear-open tab delimited by perforation lines is arranged in the region of a large front wall of the packaging. This extends in the direction of an upper, small-area end wall. One end area of the tongue-shaped tear-open tab is provided with an adhesive strip which can be pulled off the front wall with an adhesive-free handle end while taking the tear-open tab with it. This frees up an upper removal opening for the handkerchiefs, see for example DE-U-7 934 619.

Es sind auch andere Ausführungsformen derartiger Folien-Verpackungen bekannt, z.B. mit einer einen Klebestreifen aufweisenden, wiederverschließbaren Aufreißhilfe im Bereich einer der langgestreckten Seitenwände der Verpackung.Other embodiments of such foil packaging are also known, e.g. with a reclosable tear-off aid having an adhesive strip in the area of one of the elongated side walls of the packaging.

Die Erfindung befaßt sich mit der Herstellung solcher oder ähnlicher Verpackungen. Aus der DE-A-1 913 593 ist es bekannt, Etiketten paarweise auf einem Trägerband zwei nebeneinanderliegenden Reihen von Packungen zuzuführen. Die vorgefertigten Etiketten werden vom Trägerband abgenommen und auf die Verpackungen aufgeklebt.The invention is concerned with the manufacture of such or similar packaging. From DE-A-1 913 593 it is known to feed labels in pairs on a carrier tape to two adjacent rows of packs. The pre-made labels are removed from the carrier tape and glued to the packaging.

Die der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe besteht darin, Klebestreifen bzw. Klebeetiketten für die Aufreißhilfe der genannten Verpackungen materialsparend herzustellen sowie in leistungsfähiger Weise an der Verpackung anzubringen, so daß diese kostengünstig gefertigt werden können. Zur Lösung der Aufgabe ist das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß die doppelt breite Materialbahn in ihrer Längsmitte während des Transports fortlaufend durchtrennt wird unter Bildung von zwei Teilbahnen, von denen jeweils einzelne Klebeetiketten bzw. Klebestreifen paarweise abgetrennt und den beiden Verpackungen zugeführt werden.The object on which the invention is based is to produce adhesive strips or adhesive labels for the tear-open aid of the aforementioned packagings in a material-saving manner and to attach them to the packaging in an efficient manner, so that they can be manufactured inexpensively. To achieve the object, the method according to the invention is characterized in that the double-wide material web is continuously cut through in its longitudinal center during transport to form two partial webs, from which individual adhesive labels or adhesive strips are separated in pairs and fed to the two packagings.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung ist gekennzeichnet durch ein der Übertragungswalze vorgeordnetes Schneidmesser, durch das die Materialbahn vor der Zuführung zur Übertragungswalze in der Längsmitte durchtrennbar ist in zwei Teilbahnen, die mit Abstand voneinander dem Umfang der Übertragungswalze zuführbar sind.The device according to the invention is characterized by a cutting knife arranged upstream of the transfer roller, by means of which the material web can be severed in the longitudinal center before being fed to the transfer roller into two partial webs which can be fed to the circumference of the transfer roller at a distance from one another.

Eine nach dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren hergestellte Verpackung ist im Bereich der Öffnungshilfe so ausgebildet, daß ein sich annähernd über die volle Breite der Vorderwand erstreckendes Klebeetikett mit einem Etikettenüberstand in die Ebene der Stirnwand fortgesetzt und mit dieser durch Verklebung in einem etwa der halben Fläche der Stirnwand entsprechenden Bereich verbunden ist. Durch diese Anordnung des Klebeetiketts wird eine erhöhte Stabilität der Verpackung im Bereich der Aufreißhilfe erreicht.A packaging produced by the method according to the invention is designed in the region of the opening aid in such a way that an adhesive label extending approximately over the full width of the front wall is continued with a label protrusion in the plane of the front wall and corresponding to this by gluing in approximately half the area of the front wall Area is connected. This arrangement of the adhesive label increases the stability of the packaging in the area of the tear-open aid.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung betreffen das Herstellungsverfahren für die Verpackung bzw. die Aufreißhilfe und die Ausgestaltung der Vorrichtung.Further features of the invention relate to the manufacturing process for the packaging or the tear-open aid and the design of the device.

In Fig. 1 ist eine Verpackung dargestellt, die aus sehr dünner Folie (z. B. 30 µ ) bestehen kann. Die Verpackung ist insbesondere für die Aufnahme eines Stapels von gefalteten Papier-Taschentüchern geeignet.In Fig. 1 a packaging is shown, which can consist of very thin film (z. B. 30 u). The packaging is particularly suitable for holding a stack of folded paper handkerchiefs.

Die Verpackung wird aus einem rechteckigen Zuschnitt 20 gefertigt, der in Fig. 2 als Abschnitt einer fortlaufenden Folienbahn 21 gezeigt ist. Der Zuschnitt 20 ist für die Bildung einer Vorderwand 22, einer Rückwand 23, einer zwischen diesen angeordneten Seitenwand 24 sowie einander überdeckender und miteinander durch Siegeln verbundener Seitenwandlappen 25, 26 bestimmt. An die freien Seiten der vorgenannten Packungswandungen schließen Faltlappen an zur Bildung einer oberen Stirnwand 27 sowie einer entsprechenden Bodenwand 28 an. Die betreffenden Faltlappen sind äußere und innere Längslappen 29, 30 sowie Seitenlappen 31, 32. Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel der Fig. 1 ist die Stirnwand 27 - und entsprechend die Bodenwand 28 - so ausgebildet, daß zuerst die Seitenlappen 31, 32 nach innen gegen den Packungsinhalt und sodann die Längslappen 30 und 29 gefaltet werden, wobei letztere eine trapezförmige Gestalt erhalten.The packaging is produced from a rectangular blank 20, which is shown in FIG. 2 as a section of a continuous film web 21. The blank 20 is intended for the formation of a front wall 22, a rear wall 23, a side wall 24 arranged between them and overlapping side wall tabs 25, 26 which are connected to one another by seals. Folding flaps connect to the free sides of the aforementioned pack walls Formation of an upper end wall 27 and a corresponding bottom wall 28. The folding tabs in question are outer and inner longitudinal tabs 29, 30 and side tabs 31, 32. In the embodiment of FIG. 1, the end wall 27 - and correspondingly the bottom wall 28 - is designed such that first the side tabs 31, 32 are turned inwards against the contents of the package and then folding the longitudinal flaps 30 and 29, the latter having a trapezoidal shape.

Die Verpackung ist im Bereich der Vorderwand 22 mit einer Aufreißhilfe versehen. Durch eine im vorliegenden Falle bogenförmige Perforationslinie 33 ist eine Aufreißlasche 34 begrenzt, die in einem der Stirnwand 27 zugekehrten Bereich der Vorderwand 22 gebildet ist. Die Perforationslinie 33 verläuft bis zu einer zwischen Vorderwand 22 und Stirnwand 27 gebildeten Kante, nämlich einer Vorderkante 35. Diese ist zugleich Schwenkachse für die Aufreißlasche 34 bei Öffnungs- und Schließbewegungen derselben. Die Perforationslinien 33 enden mit Abstand von vorderen, aufrechten Seitenkanten 36, 37 und zugleich von den zwischen Vorderwand 22 und Stirnwand 27 gebildeten Vorderecken 38, 39.The packaging is provided with a tear-open aid in the area of the front wall 22. A tear-open tab 34 is delimited by an arched perforation line 33 in the present case, which is formed in an area of the front wall 22 facing the end wall 27. The perforation line 33 extends to an edge formed between the front wall 22 and the front wall 27, namely a front edge 35. This is also the pivot axis for the tear-open tab 34 during the opening and closing movements of the same. The perforation lines 33 end at a distance from the front, upright side edges 36, 37 and at the same time from the front corners 38, 39 formed between the front wall 22 and the front wall 27.

Die Aufreißlasche 34 wird durch ein außen angebrachtes Klebeetikett 40 betätigt, welches vorzugsweise aus einer etwas dickeren Folie mit einseitig angebrachter Beschichtung eines Dauerklebers besteht.The tear-open tab 34 is actuated by an externally attached adhesive label 40, which preferably consists of a somewhat thicker film with a permanent adhesive coating applied on one side.

Das Klebeetikett 40 ist bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel der Fig. 1 und 2 in besonderer Weise ausgebildet, bemessen und angeordnet. Wie ersichtlich, hat das Klebeetikett 40 größere Abmessungen in Längs- und Querrichtung als die Aufreißlasche 34. Das hier ebenfalls im unteren Bereich bogenförmige Klebeetikett 40 erstreckt sich im Bereich der Vorderwand 22 mit einer an die bogenförmige Kontur anschließenden geradlinigen Begrenzungskante 41 (annährend) bis an die Seitenkanten 36, 37 der Vorderwand 22. Diese ist demnach in einem der Stirnwand 27 zugekehrten Bereich über nahezu die volle Breite durch das Klebeetikett 40 überdeckt.The adhesive label 40 is designed, dimensioned and arranged in a special way in the embodiment of FIGS. 1 and 2. As can be seen, the adhesive label 40 has larger dimensions in the longitudinal and transverse directions than the tear-open tab 34. The adhesive label 40, which is likewise curved in the lower region here, extends in the region of the front wall 22 with a rectilinear boundary edge 41 (approximately) adjoining the curved contour the side edges 36, 37 of the front wall 22. This is accordingly in a region facing the end wall 27 almost the full width covered by the adhesive label 40.

Ein Anschlußstück 42 des Klebeetiketts 40 erstreckt sich in gleicher Breite, also in rechteckiger Gestaltung, in der Ebene der Stirnwand 27 und ist durch Verkleben mit dieser verbunden. Das Anschlußstück 42 ist so bemessen, daß es annährend die halbe Fläche der Stirnwand 27 außen bedeckt und sich im Bereich des äußeren Längslappens 29 sowie der Seitenlappen 31 und 32 erstreckt. Der Bereich der Aufreißlasche und insbesondere der belastete Bereich der Stirnwand 27 werden durch das Klebeetikett 40 und insbesondere durch dessen Anschlußstück 42 stabilisiert. Dieses bleibt auch bei den Öffnungs- und Schließbewegungen in der Verklebungsstellung mit der Stirnwand 27.A connecting piece 42 of the adhesive label 40 extends in the same width, that is to say in a rectangular configuration, in the plane of the end wall 27 and is connected to it by gluing. The connecting piece 42 is dimensioned such that it covers approximately half the surface of the end wall 27 on the outside and extends in the region of the outer longitudinal tab 29 and the side tabs 31 and 32. The area of the tear-open tab and in particular the loaded area of the end wall 27 are stabilized by the adhesive label 40 and in particular by its connecting piece 42. This remains in the bonding position with the end wall 27 even during the opening and closing movements.

An einem unteren Bereich außerhalb der Aufreißlasche 34 ist das Klebeetikett mit einem kleberfreien Griffende 43 versehen. Dieses wird dadurch gebildet, daß auf der mit Kleber versehenen Seite des Klebeetiketts 40 ein nicht klebendes Streifenmaterial aufgeklebt ist.The adhesive label is provided with an adhesive-free handle end 43 at a lower area outside the tear-open tab 34. This is formed in that a non-adhesive strip material is glued to the side of the adhesive label 40 provided with adhesive.

Bei der in Fig. 3 gezeigten Ausführung einer (Folien-)Verpackung ist die Aufreißhilfe im Bereich einer Seitenwand 44 der Verpackung angebracht, die durch Verkleben der beiden Längslappen 29, 30 entsteht. Der äußere Längslappen 29 ist zugleich eine Öffnungslasche als Teil des Längslappens 29 mit seitlicher Begrenzung durch Trennschnitte 46.In the embodiment of a (film) packaging shown in FIG. 3, the tear-open aid is attached in the region of a side wall 44 of the packaging, which is created by gluing the two longitudinal tabs 29, 30. The outer longitudinal tab 29 is at the same time an opening tab as part of the longitudinal tab 29 with lateral delimitation by separating cuts 46.

Ein länglicher, rechteckiger Klebestreifen 47 aus einer Folie mit einseitiger Kleberbeschichtung erstreckt sich hier mit einem Schenkel im Bereich der Seitenwand 44 unter Verbindung mit der Öffnungslasche 45 und mit einem weiteren Schenkel im Bereich der Vorderwand 22. Am freien Ende des Klebestreifens 47 im Bereich der Vorderwand 22 ist ein kleberfreies Griffende 50 in analoger Weise zu dem Ausführungsbeispiel der Fig. 1 und 2 gebildet.An elongated, rectangular adhesive strip 47 made of a film with an adhesive coating on one side extends here with one leg in the region of the side wall 44 connected to the opening tab 45 and with another leg in the region of the front wall 22. At the free end of the adhesive strip 47 in the region of the front wall 22, an adhesive-free handle end 50 is formed in an analogous manner to the exemplary embodiment in FIGS. 1 and 2.

In Fig. 4 bis 7 werden Einzelheiten eines Verfahrens und einer Vorrichtung dargestellt, die für die Herstellung von Packungen gemäß Fig. 1 und 2 - aber auch von anderen Verpackungen mit Aufreißhilfe - besonders geeignet sind. Wie ersichtlich, werden quaderförmige (Folien-)Verpackungen 51 in zwei parallelen Packungsreihen 52, 53 von einer Verpackungsmaschine, einem Speicher oder dergleichen kommend zugefördert. Bei dem hier gewählten Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Verpackungen 21 der beiden Packungsreihen 52, 53 nach dem Herstellungsprozeß gleichgerichtet. Für das gleichzeitige Anbringen von Klebeetiketten 40 an jeweils zwei paarweise benachbarten Verpackungen 51 der Packungsreihen 52 und 53 müssen die Verpackungen 51 einer Verpackungsreihe - bei dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel der Verpackungsreihe 53 - um 180o gedreht werden, so daß die Verpackungen 51 der beiden Verpackungsreihen 52, 53 mit ihren Stirnwänden 27 einander zugekehrt sind. Die Vorderwände 22 sind nach oben gerichtet.4 to 7 show details of a method and a device which are particularly suitable for the production of packages according to FIGS. 1 and 2 - but also of other packages with a tear-open aid. As can be seen, cuboid (film) packs 51 are conveyed in two parallel pack rows 52, 53 coming from a packaging machine, a store or the like. In the exemplary embodiment selected here, the packs 21 of the two pack rows 52, 53 are rectified after the manufacturing process. For the simultaneous application of adhesive labels 40 to two pairs of adjacent packs 51 of the pack rows 52 and 53, the packs 51 of a pack row - in the exemplary embodiment of the pack row 53 - have to be rotated by 180 ° so that the packs 51 of the two pack rows 52, 53 with their end walls 27 facing each other. The front walls 22 are directed upwards.

In deratiger Relativstellung werden die Packungsreihen 52, 53 in eine Etikettenstation 54 (kontinuierlich) gefördert. In dieser werden jeweils doppelt breite Klebeetiketten, also Doppeletiketten 55, gleichzeitig auf je zwei zueinander benachbarte Verpackungen 51 der Packungsreihen 52, 53 aufgelegt. Die Packungsreihen 52, 53 sind zu diesem Zweck in einem solchen Abstand voneinander angeordnet, daß das Doppeletikett 55 positionsgerecht auf beiden Verpackungen 51 angebracht, nämlich mit dem jeweils der Vorderwand 22 zugeordneten Teil auf diese aufgelegt werden kann. In einer Zwischenposition liegt demnach das Doppeletikett 55 auf den Vorderwänden 22 der paarweise benachbarten Verpackungen 51 auf und verbindet diese miteinander. Der zur Bildung des Anschlußstücks 42 dienende Teil der (herzustellenden) einzelnen Klebeetiketten 40 liegt als verbindende Brücke frei zwischen den beiden Verpackungen 51.In such a relative position, the pack rows 52, 53 are conveyed (continuously) to a label station 54. In this case, double-width adhesive labels, that is to say double labels 55, are placed simultaneously on two mutually adjacent packs 51 of the pack rows 52, 53. For this purpose, the rows of packs 52, 53 are arranged at such a distance from one another that the double label 55 can be positioned correctly on both packs 51, namely with the part assigned to the front wall 22 in each case. Accordingly, in an intermediate position, the double label 55 rests on the front walls 22 of the packaging 51 adjacent in pairs and connects them to one another. The part of the (to be manufactured) individual adhesive labels 40 used to form the connecting piece 42 is exposed as a connecting bridge between the two packages 51.

Im Zuge des Weitertransports der Paare von Verpackungen 51 werden die Doppeletiketten 51 durch einen Trennschnitt 56 (Fig. 5) in der Mittelebene zwischen den beiden Verpackungen 51 durchtrennt unter Bildung von zwei separaten Klebeetiketten 40.In the course of further transport of the pairs of packages 51, the double labels 51 are separated by a cut 56 (Fig. 5) in the middle plane between the two packages 51 cut to form two separate adhesive labels 40.

Die an der Vorderkante 35 über die Vorderwand 22 hinwegstehenden Bereiche der Klebeetiketten 40, nämlich die Anschlußstücke 42 derselben, werden sodann in die (vertikale) Ebene der Stirnwand 27 umgefaltet und mit dieser verklebt. Damit sind jeweils gleichzeitig zwei Verpackungen 51 in der Ausführung gemäß Fig. 1 hergestellt.The areas of the adhesive labels 40 which protrude from the front edge 35 beyond the front wall 22, namely the connecting pieces 42 thereof, are then folded over into the (vertical) plane of the end wall 27 and glued to it. Thus, two packages 51 in the embodiment according to FIG. 1 are produced at the same time.

Die Doppeletiketten 55 werden im Bereich der Etikettenstation 54 von einer entsprechend dimensionierten, also mindestens doppelt breiten Materialbahn 57 aus Folienmaterial abgetrennt. Die einseitig mit einem Kleber versehene Materialbahn 57 ist zu einer Bobine 58 gewickelt. Die Materialbahn 57 wird von dieser fortlaufend, kontinuierlich abgezogen und über Umlenkwalzen 59, 60 an den Umfang einer Übertragungswalze 61 herangefördert. Diese ist mit ihrer Mantelfläche unmittelbar oberhalb der Verpackungen 51 bzw. Packungsreihen 52, 53 angeordnet, derart, daß auf dem Mantel der Übertragungswalze 61 gebildete Klebeetiketten 40 bzw. Klebestreifen 47 oder Doppeletiketten 55 auf die nach oben gerichtete Seite der Verpackungen 51 übertragen werden, und zwar während der Transportbewegung derselben.The double labels 55 are separated in the area of the label station 54 from a correspondingly dimensioned, that is to say at least double-wide, material web 57 made of film material. The material web 57 provided with an adhesive on one side is wound into a bobbin 58. The material web 57 is continuously drawn off from this and conveyed to the periphery of a transfer roller 61 via deflection rollers 59, 60. This is arranged with its lateral surface immediately above the packages 51 or pack rows 52, 53, such that adhesive labels 40 or adhesive strips 47 or double labels 55 formed on the jacket of the transfer roller 61 are transferred to the upward-facing side of the packages 51, and during the transport movement of the same.

Einzelne Klebeetiketten 40, Klebestreifen 47 oder Doppeletiketten 55 werden im Bereich der Übertragungswalze 61 durch Stanzungen aus der Materialbahn 57 gefertigt. Zu diesem Zweck ist der Übertragungswalze 61 eine Schneidwalze 62 zugeordnet. Diese ist auf dem Umfang mit vorstehenden Messern 63 versehen, die in einer den herzustellenden Klebeetiketten, Klebestreifen oder Doppeletiketten entsprechenden Kontur angeordnet sind. Durch die Schneidwalze 62 können einzelne Klebeetiketten 40 bzw. Klebestreifen 47 - paarweise - hergestellt werden oder Doppeletiketten 55, und zwar durch Anlage der Schneidwalze 62 bzw. der Messer 63 an der Mantelfläche der Übertragungswalze 61 bzw. an der auf dieser ablaufenden Materialbahn 57.Individual adhesive labels 40, adhesive strips 47 or double labels 55 are produced in the area of the transfer roller 61 by punching from the material web 57. For this purpose, a cutting roller 62 is assigned to the transfer roller 61. This is provided on the circumference with protruding knives 63 which are arranged in a contour corresponding to the adhesive labels, adhesive strips or double labels to be produced. The cutting roller 62 can be used to produce individual adhesive labels 40 or adhesive strips 47 - in pairs - or double labels 55, namely by abutting the cutting roller 62 or the knives 63 on the outer surface of the transfer roller 61 or on the on this running material web 57.

Bei dem bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Fig. 6, 7 und 8 werden jeweils Doppeletiketten 55 aus der Materialbahn 57 ausgestanzt. Die Breite der Materialbahn 57 ist dabei so gewählt, daß seitliche Abfallstreifen 64 als Rückstand auf der Übertragungswalze 61 zurückbleiben. Diese Abfallstreifen 64 werden bei der gezeigten Vorrichtung durch Aufwickeln auf eine Abfallbobine 65 gesammelt und so ohne Beeinträchtigung des Fertigungsvorgangs beseitigt.6, 7 and 8, double labels 55 are punched out of the material web 57. The width of the material web 57 is chosen so that lateral waste strips 64 remain as residue on the transfer roller 61. In the device shown, these waste strips 64 are collected by winding them onto a waste bobbin 65 and are thus removed without impairing the production process.

Die Doppeletiketten 55 werden nacheinander und kontinuierlich auf die paarweise zugeführten Verpackungen der Packungsreihen 52, 53 aufgelegt. Diese sind dabei mit ihren Stirnwänden 27 einander zugekehrt und in einen solchen Abstand voneinander angeordnet, daß die oben beschriebene Anbringung des Doppeletiketts 55 an der Oberseite der beiden Verpackungen 51 gewährleistet ist.The double labels 55 are placed one after the other and continuously on the packs of the pack rows 52, 53 fed in pairs. These are facing each other with their end walls 27 and arranged at such a distance from one another that the above-described attachment of the double label 55 to the top of the two packages 51 is ensured.

Im Anschluß an die Anbringung des Doppeletiketts 55 an den beiden Verpackungen 51 erfolgt der Trennschnitt 56 in der Mitte des Doppeletiketts 55 zwischen den beiden Verpackungen 51, und zwar durch ein ortsfestes, umlaufendes, scheibenförmiges Trennmesser 66.Following the attachment of the double label 55 to the two packages 51, the separating cut 56 takes place in the middle of the double label 55 between the two packages 51, specifically by means of a stationary, circumferential, disk-shaped separating knife 66.

Die Verpackungen 51 werden danach ununterbrochen weitergefördert, bei dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel unter Beibehaltung der Relativstellung. Die über die Vorderwand 22 der Verpackungen 51 hinwegstehenden Anschlußstücke 42 der nach dem Trennschnitt gebildeten Klebeetiketten 40 werden gemeinsam umgefaltet nach unten in die Ebene der Stirnwand 27. Zu diesem Zweck ist in der Bewegungsbahn der Packungsreihen 52, 53 zwischen diesen ein ortsfestes Faltorgan vorgesehen. Dieses ist bei dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel als rotierende Faltscheibe 67 ausgebildet. Die Gestalt der Faltscheibe 67 ist an den Faltvorgang angepaßt, nämlich doppelkonisch. Schräg gerichtete, beidseitig angeordnete Faltflächen 68 erfassen den Überstand, nämlich das Anschlußstück 42 und bewegen dieses abwärts, bis ein ebener Flachteil 69 der Faltscheibe 67 aufgrund der Relativstellung das umgefaltet Anschlußstück 42 an die Stirnwand 27 andrückt. Die Verpackungen 51 sind nun auch in bezug auf die Aufreißhilfe fertiggestellt.The packs 51 are then conveyed continuously, in the exemplary embodiment shown while maintaining the relative position. The connecting pieces 42 of the adhesive labels 40 formed after the separating cut and protruding beyond the front wall 22 of the packages 51 are folded down together into the plane of the end wall 27. For this purpose, a stationary folding member is provided in the movement path of the rows of packs 52, 53 between them. In the exemplary embodiment shown, this is designed as a rotating folding disk 67. The shape of the folding disk 67 is adapted to the folding process, namely double conical. Inclined folding surfaces 68 arranged on both sides capture the protrusion, namely the connector 42 and move it downwards until a flat flat part 69 of the folding disk 67 presses the folded-over connecting piece 42 against the end wall 27 due to the relative position. The packaging 51 is now completed with respect to the tear aid.

Das an den Klebeetiketten 40 angebrachte Griffende 43 wird aus einem Materialstreifen 70 aus Papier, Folie oder dergleichen gefertigt und auf die klebende Seite des Klebeetiketts 40 anfgebracht. Der Materialstreifen 70 wird von einer Materialrolle 71 fortlaufend abgezogen. Der Materialstreifen 70 ist bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel in doppelter Breite ausgeführt und wird während des Transports mittig durchtrennt, und zwar durch ein Schneidmesser 72. Die beiden so entstehenden Teilstreifen 73, 74 werden auf Abstand voneinander gefördert und zwar durch Anlage am Umfang einer Umlenkwalze 75. Der gebildete Abstand ist auf die erwünschte Relativlage der Teilstreifen 73, 74 an der Materialbahn 57 ausgerichtet. Die Teilstreifen 73, 74 werden am Rand der Materialbahn 57 fortlaufend an diese angedrückt, und zwar auf der mit Kleber versehenen Seite. Die Teilstreifen 73, 74 werden so fest mit den Randbereichen der Materialbahn 57 verbunden. Die Relativlage der Teilstreifen 73, 74 ist derart, daß beim Stanzen bzw. Schneiden der Klebeetiketten 40 bzw. Doppeletiketten 55 die Griffenden 50 am vorgesehenen Ende bzw. Rand der Klebeetiketten 44 gebildet sind. Beim Stanzvorgang entstehender Materialabfall im Bereich der Teilstreifen 73, 74 wird mit dem Abfallstreifen 64 abgefördert.The handle end 43 attached to the adhesive labels 40 is made from a strip of material 70 made of paper, foil or the like and is applied to the adhesive side of the adhesive label 40. The material strip 70 is continuously drawn off from a material roll 71. In the present exemplary embodiment, the material strip 70 is of double width and is severed in the middle during transport, specifically by a cutting knife 72. The two partial strips 73, 74 thus created are conveyed at a distance from one another, namely by contacting the circumference of a deflection roller 75. The distance formed is aligned with the desired relative position of the partial strips 73, 74 on the material web 57. The partial strips 73, 74 are pressed continuously against the edge of the material web 57, specifically on the side provided with adhesive. The partial strips 73, 74 are thus firmly connected to the edge regions of the material web 57. The relative position of the partial strips 73, 74 is such that when punching or cutting the adhesive labels 40 or double labels 55, the handle ends 50 are formed at the intended end or edge of the adhesive labels 44. Waste material arising in the region of the partial strips 73, 74 during the punching process is removed with the waste strip 64.

Eine Abwandlung des vorstehend beschriebenen Verfahrens sowie der Vorrichtung ist aus Fig. 8 entnehmbar. Hier werden aus der Materialbahn 57 nicht die beschriebenen Doppeletiketten 55 geschnitten bzw. gestanzt, sondern diese Vorrichtung ist für die Herstellung von einzelnen Klebeetiketten 40 und zum paarweisen Anbringen derselben an jeweils zwei Verpackungen 51 eingerichtet. Zu diesem Zweck wird die mit den Teilstreifen 73, 74 versehene Materialbahn 57 vor der Schneid- bzw. Stanzstelle, also vor Erreichen der Übertragungswalze 61 und der Schneidwalze 62, in der Längsmitte bei fortlaufendem Transport geteilt, und zwar durch ein scheibenförmiges Schneidmesser 76. Die so entstehenden Teilbahnen 77, 78 werden mit Abstand voneinander an den Umfang der Übertragungswalze 61 herangeführt. Die Messer 63 der an der Übertragungswalze 61 anliegenden Schneidwalze 62 sind bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel so eingerichtet, daß im Bereich jeder Teilbahn 77, 78 auf dem Umfang der Übertragungswalze 61 einzelne, mit Abstand voneinander angeordnete Klebeetiketten 40 entstehen.A modification of the method described above and the device can be seen in FIG. 8. Here, the described double labels 55 are not cut or punched from the material web 57, but rather this device is set up for the production of individual adhesive labels 40 and for attaching them in pairs to two packages 51 in each case. For this purpose, the material web provided with the partial strips 73, 74 57 in front of the cutting or punching point, that is to say before reaching the transfer roller 61 and the cutting roller 62, divided in the longitudinal center during continuous transport, namely by a disk-shaped cutting knife 76. The partial webs 77, 78 thus formed become circumferential at a distance from one another the transfer roller 61 brought up. In this exemplary embodiment, the knives 63 of the cutting roller 62 abutting the transfer roller 61 are set up in such a way that individual adhesive labels 40 arranged at a distance from one another are formed in the region of each partial web 77, 78 on the circumference of the transfer roller.

Diese werden sodann in der beschriebenen Weise auf die Oberseite der Verpackungen 51 Übertragen, derart, daß ein Überstand der Klebeetiketten, nämlich das Anschlußstück 42, über die Verpackungen hinwegragt. Diese Anschlußstücke 42 werden im Verlaufe des weiteren Transports der Verpackungen 51 gegen die Stirnwand 27 umgefaltet, und zwar entweder durch ein dem Ausführungsbeispiel der Fig. 6 entsprechendes Faltorgan (Faltscheibe 67) oder auch durch feststehende kurvenförmige Faltorgane.These are then transferred to the top of the packaging 51 in the manner described, such that a protrusion of the adhesive labels, namely the connector 42, projects beyond the packaging. These connecting pieces 42 are folded over against the end wall 27 in the course of the further transport of the packaging 51, either by means of a folding element (folding disk 67) corresponding to the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 6, or else by means of fixed curved folding elements.

Das beschriebene Verfahren sowie die Vorrichtungen sind in analoger Weise auch zur Herstellung und Anbringung von bei vielen Verpackungen üblichen Klebestreifen 47 geeignet (Fig. 9 und 10). Verfahren und Vorrichtung zum Herstellen und Anbringen derartiger Klebestreifen 47 sind in analoger Weise zu den bereits beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispielen ausgebildet. Gleiche Teile der Vorrichtung sind deshalb in Fig. 10 mit den Bezugsziffern der vorangehenden Ausführungsbeispiele versehen.The described method and the devices are also suitable in an analogous manner for the production and application of adhesive strips 47 which are common in many packages (FIGS. 9 and 10). The method and device for producing and attaching such adhesive strips 47 are designed in a manner analogous to the exemplary embodiments already described. The same parts of the device are therefore provided with the reference numbers of the preceding exemplary embodiments in FIG. 10.

Die Klebestreifen 47 können entsprechend den beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispielen in doppelter Breite durch Abtrennen von der Materialbahn 57 hergestellt werden unter Bildung von doppelt langen Klebestreifen - Doppelstreifen 79 - oder paarweise als einzelne Klebestreifen 47. Bei der Herstellung von Doppelstreifen 79, wie in Fig. 9 gezeigt, werden diese auf paarweise zugeführte Verpackungen aufgelegt und sodann mittig durchtrennt, im vorliegenden Falle durch das Trennmesser 66. Es wird dadurch ein überstehender Schenkel 48 der Klebestreifen 47 gebildet, der in der ebenfalls bereits beschriebenen Weise hier durch ein als Faltscheibe 67 ausgebildetes Faltorgan nach unten umgefaltet wird. Das Ausführungsbeispiel der Fig. 10 zeigt die Herstellung von Verpackungen gemäß Fig. 3, bei der der Aufreißstreifen sich mit dem Schenkel 49 im Bereich der Vorderwand 42 und mit dem Schenkel 48 im Bereich der langgestreckten Seitenwand 44 erfaßt.According to the exemplary embodiments described, the adhesive strips 47 can be produced in double width by separating them from the material web 57 to form double-long adhesive strips - double strips 79 - or in pairs as individual adhesive strips 47. When producing double strips 79, as shown in FIG. 9, will this is placed on packaging supplied in pairs and then severed in the middle, in the present case by the separating knife 66. A protruding leg 48 of the adhesive strips 47 is thereby formed, which is also folded down here in the manner already described by a folding element 67 designed as a folding disk 67 . The embodiment of FIG. 10 shows the production of packaging according to FIG. 3, in which the tear strip is gripped with the leg 49 in the region of the front wall 42 and with the leg 48 in the region of the elongated side wall 44.

Die Verpackungen 51 werden zu diesem Zweck mit ihren Längsachsen in Förderrichtung weisend in zwei parallelen Packungsreihen 52, 53 gefördert. Aufgrund der abweichenden Relativstellung bei der Zuförderung der Verpackungen 51 werden diese in beiden Packungsreihen 52, 53 um 90o gedreht, so daß die Seitenwände einander zugekehrt sind. Die Drehung der Verpackungen 51 wird hier - wie auch bei den beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispielen - durch mit Saugluft beaufschlagbare Drehkolben 80 bewirkt, die oberhalb der Packungsreihen 52, 53 angeordnet und drehbar angetrieben sind.For this purpose, the packages 51 are conveyed with their longitudinal axes pointing in the conveying direction in two parallel rows of packs 52, 53. Because of the different relative position during conveying in the packages 51 they are rotated in the two pack rows 52 53 90 o, so that the side walls facing each other. As in the exemplary embodiments described, the rotation of the packaging 51 is effected here by rotary pistons 80 which can be acted upon by suction air and which are arranged above the rows of packs 52, 53 and are rotatably driven.

Aufgrund der geringen Breite der Klebestreifen 47 bzw. Doppelstreifen 79 ist eine Schneidwalze 81 abweichend von der Schneidwalze 62 der beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiele ausgebildet, nämlich mit mehreren, längs des Umfangs in gleichen Abständen angeordneten, achsparallel gerichteten Schneidmessern 82. Durch diese wird infolge Anlage an der Übertragungswalze 61 jeweils ein Doppelstreifen 79 (oder zwei einzelne Klebestreifen 47) von der Materialbahn 57 abgetrennt.Due to the small width of the adhesive strips 47 or double strips 79, a cutting roller 81 is formed differently from the cutting roller 62 of the exemplary embodiments described, namely with a plurality of axially parallel cutting blades 82 which are arranged along the circumference at equal intervals 61 each a double strip 79 (or two individual adhesive strips 47) separated from the material web 57.
