Definitions
- the present invention relates to a packaging machine with at least one Workstation that has a lower and / or an upper tool, the Lower tool is vertically movable on lifting tables.
- EP 0 569 937 B1 discloses a packaging machine with a Workstation, which has a lifting device, in which the lower tool through a toggle lever system and a piston-cylinder device raised or is lowered.
- this lifting device requires a lot of space, so that Length of the packaging machine is increased unnecessarily.
- the The lifting mechanism is comparatively slow and complex, because e.g. two toggle levers needed to tilt the plate on the guide rods avoid.
- the task therefore is to provide a packaging machine places that do not have the disadvantages of the prior art.
- a workstation in the sense of the invention is e.g. a deep-drawing, a sealing and a cutting station.
- the rod is in the middle of the plate arranged. This embodiment has the advantage that the plate never jams.
- crankshaft is in two yokes rotatably mounted.
- the yokes are in turn with the frame of the Packaging machine connected.
- the yokes are preferably transverse to Direction of the film arranged to the overall length of the respective workstation to be particularly short.
- the bearing of the crankshaft on two yokes has the advantage that the very high Forces against the lifting and pressing of the plate with the lower tool the upper tool occur, be introduced very well into the vertical guide can without the crankshaft bending and / or jamming.
- the vertical guidance of the plate is preferably at least one rod, particularly preferably two rods and very particularly preferably four rods.
- the plate in turn has at least one, preferably two, guide bushes that receive the rods.
- the yokes are preferably at the bottom End of the rods preferably mounted vertically displaceable, one each Yoke is held by two rods.
- This embodiment of the Packaging machine according to the invention has the advantage that the respective Workstation represents a unit and overall in the packaging machine can be moved or dismantled.
- each rod preferably one Elastomer spring attached, on which the vertically movable yokes rest.
- This embodiment of the packaging machine according to the invention has the Advantage that films with different thickness or with a relatively large Thickness tolerances can be processed without changes must be made at the setting of the stroke. An enlargement of the Film thickness then results in a minimal increase in force. Furthermore, can by the springs the contact pressure of the lower tool against the upper tool be limited.
- the crankshaft is preferably powered by an electric motor, preferably one Servo motor, which is preferably computer-controlled, driven.
- the electric motor preferably has a transmission, the power transmission between Electric motor or gearbox and crankshaft preferably by a toothed belt he follows.
- the electric motor or the transmission preferably has such a high one Torque and such a high rotational speed that the plate with the Lower tool within less than a second, preferably within less than half a second from bottom to top and conversely raised or lowered.
- the electric motor or the transmission has on the output side preferably a holding torque of> 50 Nm, particularly preferably> 100 Nm, in order to the forces, e.g. when sealing or cutting occur when the rod that the Plate with the crankshaft does not connect properly, to be able to take up.
- the crankshaft alternates clockwise and counterclockwise turned. This arrangement has surprisingly proven to be very space-saving exposed.
- the angle of rotation is a maximum of 180 °.
- the cube shaft makes an angle of rotation that is just large enough for the tool the packaging tray is not damaged when it is transported on.
- the tool is lowered so far that its upper edge in lowered state is a maximum of 1-10 mm below the packaging tray.
- the packaging machine according to the invention has the advantage that the vertical Lower tool movement in less than a second is carried out.
- the lift table is easy to manufacture and maintain.
- the rod engages in the middle of the plate is a tilting of the plate on the Guided tour excluded.
- Packaging machine has this a means of avoiding Product crushes between the upper and lower tools.
- Figure 1 shows the packaging machine according to the invention in a schematic representation.
- a film 1 is rolled off a roll and first passes through a deep-drawing station 2, which consists of an upper tool 3 and a lower tool 4.
- the lower tool 4 is mounted on a plate 5 which, as indicated by the arrow, can be raised and lowered.
- the film 1 is deformed into a packaging trough 6.
- the sealing station 10 also consists of an upper tool 12 and a Lower tool 11, the lower tool 11 also at the sealing station can be raised and lowered.
- the cutting station 7 cut apart.
- the cutting station also consists of an upper tool 8 and a lower tool 9, which also at the cutting station Lower tool 9 can be raised and lowered.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 The lifting table, with which the lower tools 4, 9, 11 are lowered and raised, is shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 , each of which allows a different view of the lifting table.
- Figure 2 shows the lifting table in the lowered state, while in Figure 3 the lifting table is raised.
- the lifting table has a plate 13 on which the lower tool 4, 9, 11 is mounted is.
- the plate is provided with two guide bushes 14, which are the guide rods Record 15.
- the plate 13 On its lower side, the plate 13 has a bearing 16 in which the upper end 18 of the rod 17 is pivotally mounted about an axis.
- the Rod 17 is rotatably connected to crankshaft 20 at its lower end 19, which in turn is rotatably supported in the yokes 21, 22.
- the yokes 21, 22 are vertical slidably mounted on the rods 15 and rest on the elastomer spring 26. This type of storage enables the stroke to be automatically adjusted to the Thickness of the film possible.
- the lower tool and its stroke can be moved or disassembled as a unit in the packaging machine become.
- the crankshaft 20 is driven by the electric motor 24 via the toothed belt 23 driven.
- the engine is switched so that the crank of the crankshaft in the Switching from the highest to the lowest point and vice versa, with the Rotation alternately counterclockwise and clockwise.
- the distance 25 becomes like this dimensioned to be at least half the depth of the deepest on each Packaging machine corresponds to the processable packaging tray.
- the Electric motor 24 has a transmission.
- the electric motor or the gearbox is like this dimensioned so that the crankshaft rotates in less than a second.
- the electric motor 24 has a holding torque of> 10 Nm, so that the transmission has a holding torque of> 100 Nm on the output side so that the forces occurring during the respective machining process are absorbed can, especially if the rod 17 is not absolutely vertical.
