Definitions
- the innovation concerns a machine for treating vessels with a heat source for shrinking equipment to the vessel contour.
- vessels such as cans, bottles or the like
- vessels with equip shrinkable material
- the material after winding radially inwardly shaped areas of the Vessels (floor or shoulder) protrude.
- overheating of the equipment material to Avoid wrinkling or blistering.
- the invention is based on the object to improve known machines so that a harmful Impairment of the vessels and / or the Equipment material excluded by exposure to heat is.
- This object is achieved in that by means of a controllable heat shield between the vessels and the Heat source is the heat transfer to the equipment material and the vessels are interruptible.
- a heat shield prevents in with little effort in in the shortest possible time any further heat supply through the Heat source when in certain situations, e.g. one sudden machine stop, no more heat transfer should be done.
- a simple one designed blowing device can be provided with the Air flow controlled between the bottles and the heat source can be generated.
- the heat shield does not appear in normal operation Function, but only when the heat supply to be interrupted.
- a Blow device for example the machine control actuable control valve Release the compressed air supply to the blowing device when the Machine is stopped while the control valve is otherwise remains closed and thus the blowing device ineffective is.
- a pipe with holes or nozzles can be used as a blowing device be used, the so above and / or below that Equipment receiving area of the vessels on the to the hot air blower side of the vessel transport path that is arranged from the holes or nozzles escaping compressed air that has approximately room temperature flows transversely to the direction of flow of the hot air and this carries away before it can reach a vessel.
- Fig. 1 shows a machine for continuous Equipping bottles 1 or the like with an all-round label made of shrinkable material.
- the Bottles 1 to be equipped by means of a feed conveyor 2 in a complete row of a driven feed screw 3 fed, pulled apart from this to the machine division and a subsequent one, only as a dash-dotted line Circle indicated infeed starwheel 4, which transfers the bottles to a revolving rotary table 5.
- Labeling unit 6 On the periphery of the turntable 5 is located Labeling unit 6 with a cutting unit 6a for separation of individual labels from a label tape.
- the Individual labels are then transferred from a transfer cylinder 6b passed a glue station 6c, e.g.
- the bottle After winding up the label, the bottle is opened by one Transfer star wheel 7 from the turntable 5 to a shrink carousel 8 transferred on the periphery in the circumferential direction successively offset three hot air blowers 9 with there are arcuate slot nozzles 9a.
- Each of the Hot air gun is on one by two parallel rods 10 formed slide radially to the carousel 8 from a close this lying working position, which can be seen in Fig. 1 is in a radially spaced out of service position, 2, and vice versa by means of one Controllable actuator shown in detail can be transferred.
- the slot nozzles 9a are not yet on the bottle contour adjacent sections 20a, 20b of the furnishing material 20 assigned in terms of height (see Fig. 3), such as that from the US Pat. No. 5,464,495 mentioned at the beginning (FIGS. 13 to 15) is already known.
- FIG. 2 shows that apart from the slot nozzles 9a of the hot air blowers 9 another curved tube 12 close to the outer side of the Bottle orbit or carousel 8 is located.
- This thisshrinking carousel 8 surrounding, from two individual pipe bends 12a and 12b existing pipe extends from Transfer starwheel 7 to an outlet starwheel 11 and can from two ends with connecting lines 13a and 13b Compressed air can be fed.
- the connecting lines opposite ends of the pipe bends 12a, 12b are with Plug 19 sealed gas-tight.
- Control valves 14, which are controlled by the machine control 15 are controllable, released and the hot air blower 9 are switched off and / or radially by their actuators outwards into the one further away from the carousel 8 Move the standby position (Fig. 2).
- the blowing time can be limited to a predeterminable fair value by one to avoid unnecessary air consumption. It is also possible the compressed air feed into the two pipe bends in time to control offset.
- the tube 12 is located above the labeled area of bottles 1, whereby the blowing air directed downwards from the holes 21 flow and an air curtain 22 between the bottles 1 and can form the slot nozzles 9a.
- the tube 12 is adjustable in height a bracket 17 attached to the stationary Upper part 18 of the shrink carousel 8 is located.
- the novelty is not applicable to machines confined with a shrink carousel.
- the innovation can also for machines with a straight vessel flow (see US patent 4 447 280) in a correspondingly adapted version for Come into play.
