Definitions

  • the invention relates to a plastic clip intended for closing sausage casings, bag or the like. It consists of two parts which comprise the casing end gathered into a braid and can be locked together, a first part having one of side cheeks and adjoining them essentially perpendicularly Transverse webs formed receiving space partially includes the braid and a second part bridges the crossbars of the first part, and wherein the second part is articulated with its one transverse end to the corresponding transverse end of the first part by means of a film hinge extending substantially perpendicular to the side cheeks, in the closed state with a Approach engages under a section of the first part and has a locking member in the area of its other transverse end, which interacts with a complementary locking element on the first part.
  • a plastic clip of this type known from US-A-4,275,485 has the shape of a (largely hollow) cylinder in the closed state and is divided along an axis-parallel plane.
  • a rib in the second (cover) part protrudes against the receiving space in the larger first part, but only 'spikes' arranged thereon reach the passage for the braid material delimited by the side cheeks on the top side.
  • a shoulder on the rib facing the film hinge of the second part pivots when the clip is closed into a recess which is provided on the inside in the cylindrical outer wall delimiting the receiving space in the manner of a crosspiece between the side cheeks and in this way leads to locking of the parts close to the hinge.
  • a latching hook formed on the second part engages in a latch opening in the cylindrical outer wall, which forms an opposite transverse web there.
  • a crossbar running parallel to, but at a distance from, the hinge near the hinge between this and the film hinge connects the side cheeks of the first part and an arm adjacent to the hinge on the second part with a corresponding distance in the closed state between the crossbar and the crossbar and under the crossbar.
  • the arm in cooperation with the crossbar, ensures both secure guidance of the two clip parts during the closing process and - due to the positive locking in the closed state - a high transmission of closing force in the hinge area.
  • the closed clip has sufficient elasticity against different and / or changing loads due to the distance of the locking device from the receiving space, despite the high transferability of the closing force.
  • a projection in the form of a rib running parallel to the side walls and projecting into the receiving space is formed on the second part of the new plastic clip which essentially covers the receiving space, so that the braid is deflected in a wave-like manner in the locked state of the clip and is under closing pressure .
  • Such a clip construction is basically known from WO 93/10012.
  • One embodiment consists of two identical parts, which - rotated by 180 ° - are locked together, another of two different parts Share, an open frame being provided instead of a receiving space closed at the bottom.
  • Both embodiments of this known plastic clip fulfill their task of automatically adapting to different volumes of the casing braid and, if appropriate, relieving any excess pressure that may occur in the interior of the casing during the sausage production without subsequent loss of tightness by elastic yielding, but - without the connection of the two parts - allows the processability in fast-working capping machines left something to be desired.
  • a secure latching and, above all, not interacting with the closing force exerted on the braid results if, according to another advantageous embodiment of the invention, the side cheeks are also extended on the latching side and are connected by a second crossbar and the latching arm between the second crossbar and the other cross bar adjacent to it is guided, the latching projection on the other cross bar advantageously being part of a tongue which attaches to the free edge of the cross bar, extends back outside the trough and is resiliently prestressed away from the cross bar.
  • the second part 2 has a curved cover section 11, which at one end merges into the film hinge 3, which on the other hand attaches to the cross member 8 of the first part.
  • the width of the lid section 11 is slightly less than the clear width between the side cheeks 5 of the first part 1 (FIG. 2).
  • an arcuate arm 13 is formed on the second clip part 2, which, when the clip is closed, rests with its concave inner side 14 against the correspondingly curved surface 15 of the crossmember 8.
  • a locking arm 16 is formed, which is provided on the inside with locking projections in the form of locking steps 17, 18 and 19.
  • the latching steps 17-19 engages via corresponding latching steps 20, 21 on a tongue 22 which attaches to the upper edge of the crossbar 6 adjacent to the crossbar 9 and extends into the passage 23 between this crossbar 6 and the crossbar 9.
  • the (film hinge-like) connection 24 between the tongue 22 and the crossbar 6 of the receiving space 4 elastically biases the tongue 22 into the passage 23 and gives it the function of a pawl, which can be pivoted elastically to the adjacent crossbar 6 during the closing process from the locking arm 16 on the second part 2 until the locking steps 17-19 on the locking arm 16, which are suitable for the respective braid thickness, behind the locking steps 20, 21 on the tongue 22 grab.
  • the cross member 9 supports the locking arm 16 to the other side.
  • the first part 1 has a trough-shaped receiving space 4 with side walls 5 running parallel to one another and transverse webs 6 running parallel to one another but also parallel to one another and a bottom 7.
  • the side walls 5 are at both ends via the cross webs 6 extended and connected near the film hinge 3 by a cross member 8 and at the opposite end by a cross member 9; the crossbeams 8, 9 extend parallel to the transverse webs 6.
  • recesses 10, which are aligned with one another and do not reach the bottom 7, are formed in the side cheeks 5, into which the sleeve braid (not shown) is inserted during the closing process.
  • a rib 12 is formed on the second part 2 along the longitudinal center line of the cover section 11 and over a central part of its length, which in the closed state of the clip extends centrally between the side cheeks 5 and parallel to the latter into the receiving space 4 and the one inserted into the recesses 10 Sheath braid deflected into the receiving space 4 undulating and firmly clamped.
  • the arcuate arm 13 is, as it were, formed as an extension of the rib 12.
