Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a machine for forming-filling packaging bags, in particular for packaging food articles.
- In the field of the machines designed for forming and filling flexible material bags, are known several systems for handling a paper or the like material sheet, in order to form bags, which are made by winding a film about mandrels of a rotary turret, or which are made by winding the film directly on a single vertical mandrel and by transferring successively the made bag, in several manners, to subsequent stations for the filling-in operation.
- The thus made bags, in particular, can be processed in several manners, by arranging said bags on supporting elements of carousels comprising chain elements, driven either with a continuous or an intermittent movement, which transport the bags for long linear distances, passing through processing stations, in which there are performed the filling and control operations on the bags; then, the filled bags are conveyed to further carousel assemblies, provided with bell elements, in order to evacuate the filled bags and sealing the thus formed packages.
- The prior machines provided for performing sequentially the above disclosed operations, require great spaces and, moreover, include a lot of very complex mechanisms, which are susceptible to wear and require an expensive and frequent maintenance.
- Another problem affecting the above discussed machines is that of the bag holder supporting chains which, because of the working stresses exerted thereon, are susceptible to be subjected to an increase of length, which requires a frequent maintenance for re-adjusting the bag supporting elements with respect to the fixed working stations.
- The above mentioned length variations, in the time, can not be further adjusted, thereby the chain must be replaced together with its supporting guides.
- In this connection it should be moreover pointed out that the chains of prior packaging machines usually conveys the bags to the several working stations by their supplying leg, whereas their return leg is usually devoid of any bags.
- Because of this, the chain must have a comparatively great length which in actual practice is not exploited for making purposes, but merely for causing the bag supporting elements to be returned to their starting station.
- Accordingly, the aim of the present invention is to overcome the above mentioned problems, by providing a machine for forming-filling bags for packaging products, which, while having a performance analogous to that of conventional packaging machines, has a very reduced size.
- Within the scope of the above mentioned aim, a main object of the present invention is to provide such a machine which comprises very simple driving mechanisms so as to greatly reduce the wear of the mechanical parts of the machine, thereby also reducing the maintenance requirements.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide such a machine which is specifically designed for optimizing all of the filling and vacuum sealing operations of the bags and which, in addition, is very safe and reliable in operation.
- According to one aspect of the present invention, the above mentioned aim and objects, as well as yet other objects, which will become more apparent hereinafter, are achieved by a machine for forming-filling bags for packaging products, characterized in that said machine comprises: a first section, including means for forming bags, a second section, including means for filling the formed bags and means for controlling the filling-in of said bags, and a third section, including means for vacuum sealing the filled bags, said second section comprising a bag holder supporting carousel, having a vertical axis, and provided for receiving the bags formed in said first section, in order to sequentially convey said bags to filling-in stations arranged on the periphery of said carousel, said third section comprising a vertical-axis tight bell holder carousel for evacuating and sealing said bags, said second section being superimposed on said third section.
