Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device and method for sealing packages of rolled-up fabrics, in particular plastics packages.
  • packing sheets generally made of plastic material, polyethylene for example, are currently wrapped around fabric rolls.
  • packing sheets are clamped and locked to the rolled-up position in many cases with the aid of clips or staples of metal material.
  • Said clips are bent upon themselves in the same manner as common staples for holding paper sheets together.
  • the staples are applied to the end portions of the packing sheets which are disposed close to the ends of the rolls and folded in a layered or pleated form.
  • This known technique has the merit of being simple and cheap and also of holding said end portions of the packing sheets steadily, so that they practically form end bunches in the rolls, which bunches are also very useful for grasping the fabric rolls when they are arranged in a stack.
  • end portions of said packages may be heat sealed, but this process is restricted to fabric rolls which are not very heavy since in this case breakages in the packaging material are likely to occur.
  • Said packing sheets may also be sealed by ultrasonic welding, but this technique involves high costs for installation and in addition is of difficult adjustment.
  • the package ends may also be closed by adopting the technique of heat shrinkage by hot air. This known technique however is not widely applied because in some cases the material to be packed can be damaged.
  • the technical task underlying the present invention is to devise a sealing device and a method capable of substantially eliminating the above drawbacks.
  • a package 2 consisting of a wrapping sheet of plastic material such as polyethylene for example, gathered at its ends so as to form end portions 3 folded in a pleated configuration.
  • the device 1 comprises a first clamping element consisting of a clip in the form of a staple 4, that is having a substantially U-shaped configuration comprising a central portion 5 and two side arms 6 parallel to each other.
  • Staple 4 is arranged around a sealing area 3a disposed at an end portion 3 of said package.
  • a second clamping element consisting of a plate 7 provided with gauged holes 7a to be coupled by force with the side arms 6 of staple 4, so as to define therewith a body fixedly embracing the sealing area 3a.
  • said first and second clamping elements comprise means for mutual engagement by forced fitting adapted to define an irremovable clamping.
  • staple 4 is provided on its side arms with locking portions 8 consisting of a series of extensions insertable in the gauged holes 7a, said gauged holes being such sized, relative to the locking portions 8, that the plate 7 once fitted can be removed therefrom only if it is broken or greatly torn.
  • the locking portions 8 are formed on external regions of the side arms 6 turned outwardly from staple 4, so that the locking portions 8 of a side arm 6 do not face the locking portions of the other side arm 6.
  • the locking portions 8 turned outwardly of staple 4 enable the formation of a wide and smooth seat 4a, at the inside of said staple, into which the package to be clamped can be introduced easily and without any risks of tearing.
  • Each of the locking portions 8 is saw-toothed and exhibits an inclined face 8a with respect to the central portion 5, and a transverse face 8b substantially parallel to said central portion 5.
  • the inclined faces 8a promote a forced insertion of the plate 7, if conveniently pushed at the gauged holes 7a, whereas the transverse faces 8b fixedly hook the plate 7, once it has been conveniently fitted.
  • the first and second locking elements 4 and 7 define opposite clamping surfaces, 9a and 9b respectively, between which the sealing area 3a is squashed, within the seat 4a.
  • first and second clamping elements 4 and 7 are made of rigid or semirigid plastic material. Therefore the clamping surfaces 9a, 9b are pre-shaped on the elements themselves.
  • the selected plastic material is the same material as used for the manufacture of package 2: for example, if the packing sheets are made of polyethylene, the first and second clamping elements 4 and 7 will be of polyethylene as well.
  • Staple 4 is positioned on the sealing area 3a of a package 2 so that it embraces said area between the side arms thereof 6, within the smooth seat 4a.
  • plate 7 can be arranged so that its gauged holes 7a are disposed on the side arms 6 and pushed towards the central portion 5.
  • the thurst action must be exerted at the ends of plate 7 or at the gauged holes 7a so that a forced fitting of the plate itself may be allowed, due to the presence of the inclined faces 8a.
  • a thrust exerted on the middle portion of plate 7 practically does not enable a forced fitting, in that the inclined faces 8a are located externally of staple 4.
  • the plate 7 is moved close to the central portion 5 until it completely compacts the package pleats between the clamping surfaces 9a, 9b.
  • the locking portions 8 stop the plate 7 to the final position reached and prevent slipping off of same.
  • the clamping surfaces 9a and 9b clamp the sealing area 3a by muving close to each other and therefore the staple 4 can be conceived of large sizes as regards the length of both the central portion 5 and side arms 6.
  • the adaptability of the device to any type of rolled-up-fabric package is not to the detriment of the hermetic seal of same in that, even if the package occupies only one portion of the room included between the side arms 6, the greater pressure necessarily exerted exactly at said side arms prevents the pleats from opening or moving to the free space.
  • a sealing method for packing rolled up fabrics is put into practice by said device.
  • the sealing area 3a is submitted to opposite pressures exerted by substantially parallel and opposite surfaces, corresponding to the clamping surfaces 9a, 9b.
  • Pleats are only subjected to compression and any twisting stress is reduced.
  • the clamping efforts 10 are exerted close to the end edges of the sealing area 3a.
  • the invention achieves important advantages.
  • the device is adapted for packages which are very different from one another as regards size and thickness, because closure takes place between two opposite surfaces that can be conceived of large sizes and variably spaced apart from each other.
  • the sealing action does not cause twistings of the package, but a mere compression of same, thereby avoiding risks of tearings.
  • compression is particularly marked exactly at the edge pleats which are more critical for a hermetic sealing.
