Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for applying a packaging constructed from band-shaped packaging material, which is drawn off from a coil, to a plurality of the same, packaged goods elements, which are combined to form a packaged goods assembly. It goes without saying that the packaged goods as a whole have a cubic design, which results from the assembly of the packaged goods elements.
  • the packaged goods elements can e.g. be cubic packaged goods or cylindrical packaged goods.
  • packaging rods are formed from the band-shaped packaging material, which are placed against the edges and corners of the packaged goods and assembled to form a framework. This has proven itself, but requires a corresponding stiff packaging material that can fulfill the rod and frame function described. It is expensive. Otherwise, packaged goods assemblies composed of a predetermined number of cubic packaged goods elements do not have negligible tolerances, which can add up to tolerances of 10 to 20 mm in width and length or in height. If the bars and the framework are dimensioned according to the maximum tolerances, the packaging constructed in this way cannot surround the packaged goods as tight packaging. On the other hand, a tight package can brace packaged goods that are made up of a plurality of packaged goods elements so that a frictional connection between the packaged goods elements creates a self-supporting effect in the packaged goods as a whole.
  • the invention is based on the technological problem of applying packaging constructed from tape-shaped packaging material which is pulled off a coil in a particularly simple manner to a plurality of identical packaged goods elements which are combined to form a packaged goods assembly.
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that a packaging constructed from band-shaped packaging material which is drawn off from a coil can be produced in a particularly simple manner on a plurality of identical packaged goods elements which are combined to form a packaged goods package if the combination of the measures described is implemented which allows the packaged goods to be moved with a front end face at the packaging station transversely to the tray-forming packaging material strip and the head strapping strip in the manner described. In this way you can work with short packing times, and there is also enough space in the packaging station to attach the appropriate tools. As a result, a device for carrying out the method according to the invention can be designed to be particularly simple.
  • the invention also relates to a device for carrying out the described method with a feed conveyor, a discharge conveyor arranged at right angles thereto, a coil holder for the band-shaped packaging material with a strip take-off and a separating device for separating the band-shaped packaging material into a tray-forming unit, arranged above the level of the feed conveyor and the discharge conveyor Packaging material strip and a head strapping strip, the tray-forming packaging material strip and the head strapping strip being guided together vertically to form a spacing gap between the feed conveyor and the head of the discharge conveyor, and in this area the packaging station with its tools for carrying out process steps (d), (e) and (f) is arranged.
  • the tray-forming packaging material strip 7 and the head strapping strip 8 are guided vertically between the feed conveyor 1 and the head of the discharge conveyor 2.
  • the packaging station 9 is arranged with its usual tools, which are not shown.
  • the device permits the application of a packaging constructed from band-shaped packaging material 4, which is drawn off from a coil 10, to a plurality of the same, in the exemplary embodiment cubic packaging material elements 11, which are combined to form a packaging material assembly 12.
  • the packaged goods assembly 12 is fed to the packaging station 9 on the feed conveyor 1.
  • the packaging material 4 is pulled off the coil 10 and, when pulled off, is separated into a tray-forming packaging material strip 7 and into a head strapping strip 8.
  • the tray-forming packaging material strip 7 and the head strapping strip 8 are fed vertically to the packaging station 9 together to form a spacing gap 13 which is adapted to the height of the packaged goods 12.
  • the actual packaging process is brought about in that the packaged goods assembly 12, with a front end face ahead at the packing station 9, is displaced transversely to the tray-forming packaging material strip 7 and the head strapping strip 8 and pushed onto the discharge conveyor 2 in such a way that the packaging material strip 7 and the head strapping strip 8 the packaged goods assembly 12 in a U-shape, as shown in FIG.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 it can be seen that the areas of the tray-forming packaging material strip 7 protruding beyond the bottom edge 16 of a packaged goods unit 12 are folded and fixed to a tray edge 17 (FIG. 1) or to a tray bottom 18 (FIG. 2) can be.
  • the essential process steps with regard to the creation of the packaging are carried out on the packaged goods assembly 12 resting on the discharge conveyor 2, with a tight strapping being realized. You can work continuously or intermittently.
  • the tray-forming packaging material strip 7 and the head strapping strip 8 can be specially designed by longitudinal folds. This is shown in FIG. 4 with the sub-figures 4a, 4b and 4c. The figures each show a cross section on the left and a view on the right, in sections. It can be seen in Fig. 4a that the tray-forming packaging material strip 7 before being fed to the packaging station 9 by a longitudinal fold 19 with a double strip area 20, which is applied to the side walls of the packaged goods 12, and with a single strip area 21, which the tray edge 17 or Trayêt 18 forms, is provided. The parts of the tray-forming packaging material strip 7 lying in the double strip area can be glued to one another, which was indicated in FIG.
  • the head strapping 8 can be doubled by two longitudinal folds 19 before being fed to the packaging station.
  • the folded-over areas lie side by side, as shown in FIG. 4b or at a distance 23, as shown in FIG. 4c.
  • the head strapping strip 8 does not necessarily have to be arranged on the upper edge of the packaged goods assembly 12. It can also be arranged in the central region of the height of the packaged goods 12, with a more or less large distance from the tray-forming material strip 7.
