Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging device, particularly for foodstuffs or technical materials.
  • Vacuum-forming machines with a bell-shaped chamber which comprise a vacuum pump connected to a chamber, also known as vacuum chamber, and inside which a preformed pouch, open on three sides, is usually placed; a foodstuff is placed inside the pouch.
  • the preformed pouch already contains the foodstuff when it is inserted in the vacuum chamber, then vacuum is formed inside the chamber and thermal bonding is carried out at the free side of the preformed pouch.
  • This conventional technology entails the need to use preformed pouches, whose size is therefore comparable to the size of the product; considerable manual labor is also required.
  • EP-603.704 is also known in which foodstuffs are packaged by using a plastic film which is guided through a folding station in order to obtain a double layer and is then thermally bonded so as to form pockets.
  • the pockets are provided with the intended size or capacity before being filled and sealed.
  • Hot or cold formation of the plastic film is furthermore provided for, in addition to filling, by means of a nozzle, with liquid products, flours or finely granulated products, and therefore it is not possible to use the solution described for solid products having preset volumes, such as sliced ham and the like, meat, cheeses divided into portions, trays containing foodstuffs and non-food products.
  • the aim of the present invention is to solve the above-described problems, by eliminating the drawbacks of the cited prior art and thus by providing a device which allows the vacuum or compensated-vacuum packaging of technical products or foodstuffs such as sliced ham or the like, meat, cheeses divided into portions, and trays containing food and non-food products.
  • an important object of the present invention is to provide a device which allows to package said products quickly and with limited personnel intervention.
  • Another important object of the present invention is to provide a product packaging device which has a reduced operating cycle with short execution times.
  • Another important object of the present invention is to provide a device in which said packaging can occur at a very low cost for each individual package.
  • Another important object of the present invention is to provide a device which also allows to use shrink-wrap films, optionally with the possibility to use a reduced amount of gas which is sufficient only for the package that contains the product.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a device which is also reliable and safe in use.
  • a packaging device particularly for foodstuffs or technical materials, which comprises a bell-shaped vacuum chamber, characterized in that at least one single-folded film can be placed in said bell-shaped vacuum chamber, said product or material being insertable from an open longitudinal side of said film, said bell-shaped vacuum chamber containing a first transverse thermal bonding bar, which is laterally adjacent to a cutting blade, and a second thermal bonding bar, said first and second bars being L-shaped, at least one nozzle for vacuum and/or for introducing gas or mixtures being provided so as to face one of said longitudinal open sides.
  • the reference numeral 1 designates the packaging device particularly for technical materials or foodstuffs, which are designated by the reference numeral 2.
  • the device 1 comprises a bell-shaped vacuum chamber, designated by the reference numeral 3, which is substantially constituted by a lower container 4 and by a closeable upper cover 5; suitable first strips or gaskets 6 for airtightness are provided perimetrically with respect to the container 4 and the cover 5.
  • the device uses a single-folded film 7, which as such has a first longitudinal side 8 which is closed and a second longitudinal side 9 which is open.
  • a first thermal bonding bar 11 is arranged transversely inside the bell-shaped vacuum chamber 3 at its inlet 10; a substantially L-shaped cutting blade 12 is arranged laterally to said first thermal bonding bar 11, and a first wing 13 of the blade is parallel to the first thermal bonding bar 11, whilst the second wing 14 is arranged at right angles to the first wing in the direction of the advancement of the single-folded film 7.
  • a likewise L-shaped second thermal bonding bar 15 is provided adjacent to the cutting blade 12 and forms a third wing 16, which is adjacent and parallel to the first wing 13, and a fourth wing 17, which is adjacent and parallel to the second wing 14.
  • the first thermal bonding bar 11, the second thermal bonding bar 15 and the cutting blade 12 are advantageously but not necessarily associated with a same support 50 which is movable inside the bell-shaped vacuum chamber and work in abutment against suitable contrast elements 51 which are associated inside the cover 5.
  • the bell-shaped vacuum chamber 3 also contains at least one nozzle 18 which allows to produce vacuum and/or to inject gas or mixtures either at the second open longitudinal side 9 of the single-folded film or at the fourth transverse side 20 which is adjacent to the lateral inlet 10 of the bell-shaped vacuum chamber.
  • the solution shown in figure 2 uses a nozzle 18 which has a lens-shaped cross-section and is inserted hermetically from the lateral inlet 10 of the bell-shaped chamber by means of a suitable piston 31.
  • the piston 31 causes the nozzle to retract in order to allow activation of the first and second thermal bonding bars 11,15 and of the cutting blade 12 so as to obtain a closed package 21.
  • a presser 32 which can move inside the bell-shaped chamber 3 and provides a seal because of the presence, at one of its ends, of a second strip or gasket 33 which works in contrast with a third strip or gasket 34 arranged inside the cover 5.
  • the vacuum and/or the controlled atmosphere are produced in the bell-shaped chamber and inside the package 21 across a first path 35 and a second separate path 36, each whereof has a sensor 36a and 36b which detects and controls internal pressure.
  • the nozzle which advantageously has a lens-shaped cross-section, injects gas or mixtures, if required; then the first thermal bonding bar 11 is activated, forming the third closed transverse side 19 of the next container or package 21 that can be obtained; then the second thermal bonding bar 15 is activated, closing both the fourth transverse side 20 and the second longitudinal side 9.
  • a closed package 21 is then obtained by activating the cutting blade 12.
  • the invention has achieved the intended aim and objects, a device having been provided which, by using a single-folded film, allows to obtain a vacuum or controlled-atmosphere package even with shrink-wrap films by means of an operating sequence that occurs only at the bell-shaped vacuum chamber, without the need to handle the product, allowing to package solid products such as sliced ham or the like, meat, cheeses divided into portions and trays containing both foodstuffs and non-food products.
