Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a machine for packaging containers such as bottles and the like, comprising a part for forming arrays of containers and a part for guiding/supplying and forming boxes from flattened punched blanks, in which said part for supplying and forming the boxes is arranged parallel to the longitudinal direction of feeding of the containers and the said boxes.
- It is known that, in the art of packaging containers with varying shapes, such as bottles, phials and the like, there exists the need to arrange said containers aligned in arrays formed by a predefined number of rows and columns depending on the dimensions of the packaging box inside which they are to be inserted by means of a handling head which removes the array of containers and places it inside the box.
- It is also known that automatic machines designed for this purpose exist, said machines being substantially divided into two parts which are arranged alongside each other and synchronised: in the first of said parts the arrays of containers are formed, while in the second part the box to be filled is formed; the connection between the two parts of the machine being performed by means of the said head for gripping and inserting the array, already formed, inside the box.
- In machines of the known type, forming of the box to be filled is performed by means of apparatus which are arranged in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction of feeding of the boxes both closed and open after forming.
- This arrangement of the box forming apparatus gives rise, however, to drawbacks, including an increase in the overall dimensions of the machine owing to the projection, in the transverse direction, of the forming apparatus and the difficulty of access to the forming zone in the event of malfunctioning of the said apparatus and for removal of the paper dust which accumulates in this zone.
- The technical problem which is posed, therefore, is that of providing a machine for packaging containers such as bottles, phials and the like, which is provided with an apparatus for forming the box from flattened punched cardboard boxes, which allows a reduction in the overall dimensions of the machine, allows easy access to the forming zone and allows the collection of the paper dust which accumulates during forming, outside of the said machine, thus preventing the actuating and detection and control devices from being subject to malfunctions due to the presence of said dust.
- These technical problems are solved according to the present invention by a machine for packaging containers such as bottles and the like, comprising a part for forming arrays of containers and a part for guiding/supplying and forming boxes from flattened punched blanks, in which said part for supplying and forming the boxes is arranged parallel to the longitudinal direction of feeding of the containers and the said boxes.
- Further details may be obtained from the following description of a non-limiting example of embodiment of the invention provided with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
- Figure 1 shows a top plan view of the machine according to the invention during the various stages of opening and filling of the box;
- Figure 2a shows a front view of the box forming apparatus applied to a packaging machine and at the moment when the cardboard box is gripped;
- Figure 2b shows a rear view of the machine according to Fig. 2a;
- Figure 3a shows a front view of the forming apparatus during pre-opening of the box; and
- Figure 3b shows a rear view of the machine according to Fig. 3a.
- As shown, the apparatus according to the invention is applied to a
vertical wall 101 of a packaging machine, not shown, but comprising apart 102 for supplying the containers 1 to be boxed, assembled on the side of thewall 101 opposite to that for forming theboxes 2 and adevice 103 for gripping and transporting the containers 1 from the supplying part into thebox 2 which is formed and brought to the filling point by means of thedevice 103. - Said machine parts are only schematically indicated by broken lines in Fig. 1.
- The
vertical wall 101 extends parallel to the direction of feeding of the containers 1 and theboxes 2, a direction which below, for the sake of simplicity, will be identified as the longitudinal direction. - In greater detail the box forming apparatus comprises a
device 10 for guiding and supplying punched cardboard boxes forming theflattened boxes 2, which extends parallel to the longitudinal direction of the machine and is substantially formed by two pairs of upper and lowerlongitudinal guides 11 inside which theboxes 2 are arranged, closed, and by a thrustingarm 12 which is made to perform a translatory movement by associatedactuating systems 12a which cause feeding of theboxes 2, still flattened, towards the pick-up and opening zone. - The flattened boxes contained inside the
feeder 10 therefore have a rear wall 2a andfront wall 2c in the direction of feeding as well as sides walls 2b,2d which are flattened against each other and arranged transversely with respect to the said direction of feeding. - The devices for opening the
box 2 are arranged in the said pick-up zone and each box comes into contact with afirst device 20 for gripping and rotating the side surface 2b of the box, which in this position is still in turn transverse to the direction of feeding, and withsecond devices 30 for gripping and retaining the rear wall 2a of the said box, which is in turn still transverse to the direction of feeding. - In greater detail (Figs. 2a,2b) said
devices 20 for gripping and rotating the side wall 2b of thebox 2 comprise ashaft 21 which is arranged substantially vertical and to which two substantiallyhorizontal arms 22 are joined, said arms carrying vacuum means 23, such as suction pads and the like, which are designed to be attached to the side surface 2b of the closed box. - The
vertical shaft 21 is supported by anactuator 21a which is in turn mounted on aguide 21b on which it is able to perform a translatory movement, in a substantially horizontal direction and in both senses, upon operation of suitable actuating systems in the example consisting of a pair of connectingrods actuator 21a and, by means of atransmission member 26a, to afirst lever 26 of an actuating device consisting of a rotatingcam 25. Thecam 25 also has, mounted on it, asecond lever 27 connected by means of atransmission member 27a to a second pair of connectingrods actuator 21a about its vertical axis. - The
actuator 21a is thus able to perform a synchronised translatory movement in both directions (forwards and backwards) and rotation through 90° in both directions (clockwise and anti-clockwise). - The means for retaining the rear surface 2a of the box 2 (Figs. 3a,3b) consist of an
arm 31 which is arranged substantially horizontal and perpendicular to thesupport wall 101. - Said arm in turn has vacuum means 32, such as suction pads and the like, and may be actuated so as to perform a translatory movement from/towards the
wall 101 by means of a connectingrod 33 connected to a lever 34 which is in turn joined to thecam 25. - The operating principle of the apparatus is as follows:
- in the rest condition (Figs. 1a,1b) the
cam 25 is at a standstill in a position such that theactuator 21a is translated backwards towards thebox feeder 10 and thearm 31 is translated behind thewall 101; - the
flattened box 2 is supplied to the pick-up zone where it comes into contact with the vacuum means 23 of thearm 21 which attach themselves to the side surface 2b of the box; - a first angular rotation of the cam produces the
forward movement of the
actuator 21a which conveys with it the flattened box, making the rear wall 2a thereof accessible; - a further rotation of the
cam 25 causes operation of the connecting rod 34 and causes translation of thearm 31 towards the outside; - a further rotation of the cam causes the return
movement of the
actuator 21a and hence thebox 2 until the rear wall 2a of the box becomes attached to the vacuum means 32 of thearm 31; - a further rotational movement of the cam 25 (Fig. 3)
causes the rotation, in an anti-clockwise direction, of
the
actuator 21a and hence thearm 21 and thearms 22, causing the rotation of the side wall 2b of thebox 2 which thus assumes the intended square shape; - the open box is made to advance towards the
successive end closing and filling stations, while
rotation of the
cam 25 which reassumes the initial condition causes the start of a new cycle. - It is therefore obvious how the apparatus according to the invention is able to achieve the opening of flattened boxes along the direction of feeding thereof, solving the problems posed by the apparatus known in the art and described in the preamble of the present description.
- Many variations may be made to the practical embodiment of the individual component parts without thereby departing from the scope of protection of the present invention as defined by the claims which follow.
- The movements of the
actuator 21 and thearm 31 could for example be obtained by means of d.c. motors controlled by means of encoders or by devices of the hydraulic type or the like and similarly the means for attaching the arms to the walls of thebox 2 could comprise suction means aiding the suction pads or gripping means acting on the edges of the said surfaces.
