Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sorting line for ceramic products, particularly tiles, with modular packaging station.
  • Sorting lines are used mainly in the ceramics industry to sort the quality of the finished products, constituted by tiles in the specific case, and to then route them to packaging.
  • Conventional lines essentially consist of an elongated frame along which a tile conveyance line runs, specifically in the upper part; said tiles arrive from a sorting table, where one or more operators apply coded markings to the surfaces of the passing tiles with writing means whose strokes can be detected by adapted readers arranged along the conveyance line.
  • Each station is capable of forming a stack which, once it has been completed with a preset number of tiles, is deposited on a second conveyor arranged in the lower part of said frame and conveys said tiles to the final station for so-called wraparound packaging.
  • the final station is an integral part of the lines and is rigidly supported by the same frame that constitutes the main framework of the line.
  • each line can be used for packaging only one type of product, so that when it is necessary to change the packaging it is necessary to either purchase a second line built specifically for the new requirement or to provide a sort of parallel line which merges into a second twin station which has different packaging characteristics.
  • Another problem of conventional lines is the fact that maintenance on the packaging machine is highly troublesome, owing to difficulty in accessing the elements that compose it, and that it is necessary to stop the entire line during the maintenance. Since one of the lines is capable of producing a turnover equal to a few million fire/hour, it is necessary to minimize any stoppage.
  • the aim of the present invention is to solve the above mentioned problems of the conventional art, providing a sorting line for ceramic products, particularly tiles, with modular packaging station which allows to have multiple types of packaging available for a single line.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide a sorting line for ceramic products, particularly tiles, with modular packaging station which allows to avoid interrupting the operation of said line for maintenance, facilitates the maintenance and furthermore does not require more space than required for simple conventional lines.
  • a sorting line for ceramic products, particularly tiles with modular packaging station, composed of a main frame which supports a plurality of stacking stations served by a tile feeder line which cooperates with a plurality of means for extracting said tiles from said conveyance line, and for depositing the formed stacks on a second lower conveyor to send them to a final packaging station, characterized in that said final packaging station is mounted on an independent modular frame which is rotatably/detachably articulated, by articulation means, to the end of said main frame, to which it is connected without discontinuities by means of adapted elements.
  • the reference numeral 1 generally designates a sorting line for ceramic products, particularly tiles.
  • the line 1 is composed of a main frame 2 which supports a plurality of stacking stations, designated by the reference numerals 3, 4, 5, and 6 in the drawings, which are served by a tile feeder line 7.
  • the line 7 cooperates with a plurality of means 8 for extracting the tiles from the line 7 for conveying and depositing the formed stacks onto a second conveyor 9 which is lower than, and parallel to, the conveyor 7 and is provided in order to send the formed stacks to a final packaging station 10.
  • the packaging station is mounted on an independent modular frame 11 which is rotatably and, if necessary, detachably articulated, by articulation means 12, to the end of the main frame 2, to which it can be locked without discontinuities by means of corresponding elements 13.
  • the independent frame 11 is articulated to the main frame 2 so as to rotate on a horizontal plane about a vertical axis designated by A; however, as an alternative, it may also be articulated so as to swing with respect to the main frame 2, i.e., rotate about a horizontal axis which lies transversely to the advancement direction of the stacks of tiles.
  • the articulation means 12 are composed of at least one vertical pivot 14 which coincides with the axis A and is mounted on a vertical side 2a of the main frame 2.
  • the elements 13 for coupling the independent frame 11 to the main frame 2 are constituted by a hook 15 for latch coupling which can be set manually or automatically and is arranged on the side 2b of the frame 2 which lies opposite to the vertical pivot 14 with respect to the longitudinal axis B.
  • the hook 15 is articulated, so that it can rotate, to the main frame 2 in contrast with elastic return means 16 and engages a corresponding tooth 17 correspondingly associated with the independent frame 11, which is also provided with a set of flanges 18 for the universal coupling of packaging machines of different kinds and, if necessary, of wheels to allow its movement on the supporting surface.
  • the independent frame 11 is normally coupled to the end of the main frame 2, is essentially monolithic therewith and is retained axially by means of the pivot 14 on one side and by means of the hook 15, which engages the tooth 17, on the other side.
  • the station 10 is provided with flanges 18 for the universal coupling of different kinds of packaging machine: this allows in practice to replace said packaging machines with others which have different characteristics. Such replacement is performed by releasing the hook 15 from the tooth 17 and by rotating the independent frame 11 about one edge, as shown in thin lines in figure 2, easily accessing the inside of the station 10.
  • the materials used may be any according to the requirements without thereby abandoning the protective scope of the claims that follow.
