Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Herstellen von Versandbeuteln einschließlich von Briefumschlägen aus bahnförmigem Werkstoff, der mit Hilfe von mehreren Verfahrensschritten und entsprechend in mehreren Arbeitsstationen in vielfältiger Weise bearbeitet wird (siehe zum Beispiel US-A-3 400 641). Der bahnförmige Werkstoff wird dazu an seinen Rändern beschnitten und durchtrennt, mit Klebstoff versehen, gefaltet und verklebt. In besonderen Fällen wird auch ein zweites, flächiges Teil wie z. B. ein Fensterzuschnitt, ein Aufkleber, ein Klebstoff - Abdeckstreifen oder auch ein sonstiges, zustätzliches, den Versandbeutel bzw. den Briefumschlagrohling bildendes Teil mit Hilfe von Klebstoff unmittelbar noch an dem bahnförmigen Werkstoff oder an einem Zuschnitt bzw. Rohling befestigt. Der damit verbundene technische Aufwand ist groß und stellt vor allem ein Problem dar, wenn es darum geht, die Stückzahl der herzustellenden Versandbeutel bzw. Briefumschläge pro Zeiteinheit deutlich zu erhöhen.The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for manufacturing of mailers, including envelopes of web-like Material, with the help of several process steps and correspondingly in multiple workstations in a variety of ways is processed (see, for example, US-A-3 400 641). The web-shaped material is at its edges cut and cut, with adhesive, folded and bonded. In special cases, a second, flat part like z. B. a window blank, a sticker, an adhesive - cover strip or another, additional, the shipping bag or the Envelope blank forming part with the help of adhesive directly still on the sheet-like material or on a blank or Rough attached. The associated technical effort is great and above all, it is a problem when it comes to the number of pieces the shipping bag or envelopes to be produced per To significantly increase the time unit.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, Verfahrensschritte und die zugehörige Vorrichtung anzugeben, mit deren Hilfe es möglich ist, die Stückzahl pro Zeiteinheit bei der Herstellung von Versandbeuteln einschließlich von Briefumschlägen zu erhöhen, die nicht nur aus einem Teil, sondern aus mindestens zwei zunächst getrennten Teilen bestehen.The invention is therefore based on the object process steps and to provide the associated device with the help of which it is possible is the number of pieces per unit of time in the production of shipping bags including from envelopes that not only increase a part, but from at least two initially separate parts consist.

Zur Lösung der besagten Aufgabe sieht die Erfindung mit den Merkmalen von Anspruch 1 vor, daß sich mindestens eines der beiden Teile und/oder sein Träger im Bereich der Verbindungsstelle wellenförmig bewegen. Die eigentliche Kontakt- und Verbindungsstelle ist nur minimal größer als eine linienförmige Kontaktfläche. Ihre Krümmung und Lage ist durch die Krümmung der als Auftragswalze dienenden Saugwalze vorgegeben. Unmittelbar neben der eigentlichen Kontaktstelle ist die Krümmung von mindestens einem der beiden Teile und/oder seines Trägers entgegen der Krümmung der Auftragswalze gerichtet und geht dann sofort in eine vorzugsweise gemeinsame Ebene über. Die jeweiligen Bogenstücke sind extrem kurz.To solve the said problem, the invention provides the features Of claim 1, that at least one of the two parts and / or its support in the region of the joint wavy move. The actual contact and connection point is minimal larger than a linear contact surface. Your curvature and Location is due to the curvature of the suction roller serving as the application roller specified. Immediately next to the actual contact point is the curvature of at least one of the two parts and / or its Straightened against the curvature of the applicator roll and goes then immediately into a preferably common level. The respective ones Arched pieces are extremely short.

Die Führung und Handhabung beider Teile beim Aufeinanderlegen und Verkleben ist in der besagten Weise einfacher als bisher, insbesondere weil nahezu keine durch die Krümmung bedingten Gurtspannungen auftreten und auch weil in der Regel nur eines der beiden miteinander zu verbindenden Teile entsprechend der Krümmung der Auftragswalze abgebogen werden muß. Mindestens eines der beiden Teilen läuft daher nahezu geradlinig durch die Kontakt- und Verbindungsstelle und wird dennoch minimal wellenförmig geführt. Die Folge hiervon ist, daß sich größere Stückzahlen als bisher pro Zeiteinheit erzielen lassen.The leadership and handling of both parts when stacking and Gluing is easier in the said way than before, in particular because almost no due to the curvature belt tension occur and also because usually only one of the two together parts to be joined according to the curvature of the applicator roll must be bent. At least one of the two parts is running almost straight through the contact and junction and is nevertheless guided in a minimal wavy manner. The consequence of this is that Larger quantities than previously achieved per unit time.

Zur Durchführung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens ist ferner vorgesehen, daß sich mindestens eines der beiden Teile und/oder sein Träger an der Verbindungsstelle zunächst konvex in eine Mulde und sodann konkav durch die Mulde und schließlich wieder konvex aus der Mulde bewegen. Die jeweiligen Bogenstücke sind extrem kurz und verursachen daher auch keine ausgeprägte, sondern nur eine minimale Krümmung. Um dies zu erreichen, ist die Mulde gemäß der Erfindung nur flach und kann eine größte Tiefe von zum Beispiel 1,5 mm bis 2 mm besitzen.For carrying out the method according to the invention it is further provided that at least one of the two parts and / or its carrier at the junction first convex in a trough and then concave through the hollow and finally convex out of the Move trough. The respective bow pieces are extremely short and cause therefore no pronounced, but only a minimal Curvature. To achieve this, the trough is according to the invention only shallow and can have a maximum depth of for example 1.5 mm to 2 mm own.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung gehen aus Ansprüchen und der Beschreibung im Zusammenhang mit der Zeichnung hervor.Further features of the invention will become apparent from the claims and the description in connection with the drawing.

Eine Vorrichtung 1 zum Herstellen von Versandbeuteln einschließlich von Briefumschlägen aus bahnförmigem Werkstoff 2 bzw. 3 umfaßt mehrere Baugruppen 4, in denen der Werkstoff 2, 3 in vielfältiger Weise bearbeitet wird. Dazu wird er zugeschnitten, mit Vorbrüchen versehen, gefaltet, mit Leim versehen und zum fertigen Produkt zusammengelegt. Bei der Herstellung verschiedener Versandbeutel und auch verschiedener Briefumschläge ist es erforderlich, an mindestens einer Verbindungsstelle 5 zwei getrennt vorbereitete Teile 6, 7 aneinander zu befestigen bzw. mit Hilfe von Klebstoff miteinander zu verbinden. Die beiden Teile 6, 7 können z. B. ein Fensterzuschnitt einerseits und ein Briefumschlagzuschnitt andererseits und/oder andersartige, bereits vereinzelte Teile oder noch bahnförmiges, noch nicht in Einzelteile geschnittenes Material sein. Wesentlich ist, dass an der Verbindungsstelle 5 der Vorrichtung 1 ein bereits mit Klebstoff versehenes Teil und ein weiteres Teil zusammengeführt und sodann im Kontaktbereich bei ausreichendem Anpressdruck miteinander verbunden werden.An apparatus 1 for producing mailer bags including envelopes of sheet material 2 and 3, respectively several assemblies 4, in which the material 2, 3 in a variety of ways is processed. For this he is cut to size, provided with pre-breaks, folded, provided with glue and combined into a finished product. In the production of various shipping bags and also various Envelopes require at least one Junction 5 two separately prepared parts 6, 7 to each other fasten or to connect with each other by means of adhesive. The two parts 6, 7 z. B. a window blank on the one hand and a Envelope blank on the other hand and / or different, already isolated parts or still web-shaped, not yet cut into pieces Be material. It is essential that at the junction 5 of the device 1 an already provided with adhesive part and a further part merged and then in the contact area at sufficient contact pressure are connected to each other.

An der Verbindungsstelle 5 befindet sich als Träger des einen Teiles 6 eine Saugeinrichtung 8. Gemäß Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Saugeinrichtung 8 eine als Auftragswalze dienende Saugwalze 8'.At the junction 5 is located as a carrier of a part. 6 a suction device 8. According to embodiment, the suction device 8 serving as an applicator roll suction roller 8 '.

Als Träger für das andere Teil 7 dient im Bereich der Verbindungsstelle 5 eine mindestens einen Gurt aufweisende Transporteinrichtung 9. Sie transportiert das Teil 7 zur Verbindungsstelle 5, durch diese hindurch und sodann von dieser weg. Gemäß Ausführungsbeispiel handelt es sich bei der Transporteinrichtung 9 um eine mit Unterdruck arbeitende, mindestens einen Sauggurt aufweisende Transporteinrichtung.As a support for the other part 7 serves in the region of the junction 5 a belt having at least one transport device 9. Sie transports the part 7 to the connection point 5, through it and then away from it. According to embodiment, it is at the transport device 9 to a working with negative pressure, at least one suction belt having transport device.

Die Sauggurt-Transporteinrichtung 9 umfaßt einen Saugkasten 10 und weist ferner mit Abstand voneinander angeordnete Transportgurte 11 sowie Umlenkrollen 12 und eine Einrichtung 13 zum Spannen der Transportgurte 11 auf.The suction belt transport device 9 comprises a suction box 10 and also has spaced apart conveyor belts 11th and pulleys 12 and a device 13 for clamping the Transport straps 11 on.

Die Sauggurt-Transporteinrichtung 9 dient jedoch nicht nur als Träger für das eine Teil 7, sondern auch als Gegenwerkzeug für die Saugwalze 8'. Die Saugwalze 8' transportiert ihrerseits das andere Teil 6 an die Verbindungsstelle 5 und hält und führt es dort. Sie hat zugleich die Funktion eines Aufklebezylinders.The suction belt transport device 9, however, serves not only as a carrier for the one part 7, but also as a counter tool for the suction roll 8th'. The suction roll 8 'in turn transports the other part 6 to the Junction 5 and stops and runs it there. She has the same time Function of a sticking cylinder.

Der Saugkasten 10 weist in seiner den Transportgurten 11 zugewandten Oberseite 14 parallel zueinander angeordnete, grundsätzlich bekannte Saugöffnungen bzw. Schlitze 15' und 15'' auf (Figur 4). Ferner befindet sich in der Oberseite 14 bzw. in der diese Oberseite bildenden Deckplatte 15 eine Vertiefung bzw. Ausnehmung oder Mulde 16. Im Ruhezustand bzw. ohne die Teile 6 und 7 liegen die Transportgurte 11 unmittelbar auf der Deckplatte 15. Sie sind mit einer konstanten Kraft vorgespannt und erstrecken sich geradlinig über die Deckplatte 15 und berühren den Umfang 17 der Saugwalze 8' tangential. Die Transportgurte 11 tauchen in diesem Betriebszustand (Ruhezustand ohne Teile 6 und 7) nicht in die Mulde 16 ein, so daß sich ihre Zähne 18 in einem deutlichen Abstand über dem Muldengrund 19 befinden (Fig. 2). Wenn jedoch gemäß Figur 3 die Saugwalze 8' ein Teil 6 und gleichermaßen die Transportgurte 11 ein Teil 7 in den Muldenbereich bzw. durch die Verbindungsstelle 5 transportieren, so werden die Transportgurte 11 entsprechend der Materialstärke der beiden Teile 6 und 7 in die Mulde 16 gedrückt (Figur 3). Auch in dieser Situation berühren die Zähne 18 der Transportgurte 11 nicht den Muldengrund 19.The suction box 10 has in its the conveyor belts 11 facing Top 14 parallel to each other, basically known Suction openings or slots 15 'and 15' 'on (Figure 4). Further is in the top 14 and in this top forming Cover plate 15 a recess or recess or trough 16. At rest or without the parts 6 and 7 are the conveyor belts 11 directly on the cover plate 15. They are with a constant Force biased and extend straight across the Cover plate 15 and touch the circumference 17 of the suction roller 8 'tangentially. The conveyor belts 11 dive in this operating state (idle state without parts 6 and 7) not in the trough 16, so that their Teeth 18 are located at a significant distance above the trough bottom 19 (Figure 2). However, if according to Figure 3, the suction roller 8 'is a part 6 and alike the conveyor belts 11 a part 7 in the trough area or transport through the junction 5, so be the conveyor belts 11 according to the material thickness of the two parts 6 and 7 pressed into the trough 16 (Figure 3). Also in this situation Do not touch the teeth 18 of the conveyor belts 11, the trough bottom 19th

Beim Verbinden treffen die längs der Kontur bzw. längs des Umfanges 17 der Saugwalze 8' transportierten Teile 6 spitzwinklig auf die Teile 7, die sich ihrerseits wegen ihrer Materialstärke ebenfalls spitzwinklig zum Umfang 17 der Saugwalze 8' bewegen. Die Teile 7 treffen nicht tangential auf die Teile 6 am Anfang der Verbindungsstelle 5. Sie werden dadurch zunächst konvex in Richtung Mulde abgelenkt und bewegen sich sodann konkav zur Mulde 16. Während des unmittelbaren Kontaktes der beiden Teile 6, 7 bewegen sie sich kurzfristig längs einer bogenförmigen Strecke entsprechend der Kontur der Saugwalze 8'. Grundsätzlich Gleiches gilt für die Bewegung der Transportgurte 11.When joining the meet along the contour or along the circumference 17 of the suction roller 8 'transported parts 6 at an acute angle to the parts 7, which in turn, because of their material thickness also acute-angled to the circumference 17 of the suction roller 8 'move. The parts 7 do not hit tangentially on the parts 6 at the beginning of the junction 5. You will thereby initially deflected and moved convexly towards the trough then concave to the hollow 16. During the immediate Contact of the two parts 6, 7 they move briefly along a arcuate distance corresponding to the contour of the suction roll 8 '. Basically the same applies to the movement of the conveyor belts 11.

Während des Zusammenführens und Verbindens der beiden Teile 6, 7 dienen die an der Kontaktstelle nicht unmittelbar abgestützten Transportgurte 11 zugleich als Anpreßwerkzeug bzw. als Gegenwerkzeug für die Saugwalze 8'. Längs eines kurzen Bogenstückes sowie kurzzeitig umschlingen die Transportgurte 11 zusammen mit den beiden Teilen 6 und 7 die Saugwalze 8'. Dabei bewegen sich die Transportgurte 11 zunächst konvex zur Mulde 16 und sodann konkav längs der Mulde 16 und schließlich wieder konvex zur Mulde 16. Die Transportgurte 11 tauchen etwas bogenförmig konkav in die Mulde 16 ein. Aufgrund der Gurtspannung werden die Teile 6 und 7 zugleich mit konstanter Kraft aneinander gedrückt.During the merging and joining of the two parts 6, 7 serve the not directly supported at the contact point conveyor belts 11 at the same time as a pressing tool or as a counter tool for the suction roll 8 '. Along a short bend and for a short time the transport straps 11 wrap around together with the two parts 6 and 7, the suction roll 8 '. In this case, the conveyor belts 11 move first convex to the trough 16 and then concave along the trough 16th and finally convex to the trough 16. The conveyor belts 11 dip slightly arcuately into the hollow 16. Due to the Belt tension, the parts 6 and 7 at the same time with constant force pressed together.

Die Mulde 16 ist flach. Sie ist im Querschnitt kreissegementförmig oder annähernd kreissegmentförmig (Fig. 2).The trough 16 is flat. It is kreissegementförmig in cross section or approximately circular segment-shaped (FIG. 2).

Die Kontur der Mulde 16 ist zweckmäßigerweise parallel zum Umfang 17 der Saugwalze 8' gewölbt. Die größte Tiefe der Mulde 16 gegenüber der Oberseite 14 des die Transportgurte 11 tragenden Saugkastens 11 beträgt etwa 1,5 bis 2 Millimeter. Wesentlich ist, dass die Transportgurte 11 auch im Betriebszustand gemäß Figur 3 den Muldengrund 19 nicht berühren.The contour of the trough 16 is suitably parallel to the circumference 17 of the suction roller 8 'arched. The greatest depth of the trough 16 opposite the top 14 of the conveyor belts 11 carrying the suction box 11 is about 1.5 to 2 millimeters. It is essential that the Transport belts 11 in the operating state according to Figure 3 the trough bottom Do not touch 19.

Zweckmäßig ist schließlich, wenn die Länge A der Mulde 16 in Bewegungsrichtung der Transportgurte 11 deutlich kürzer ist als das Maß für den Durchmesser der Saugwalze 8'.Finally, it is expedient if the length A of the trough 16 in the direction of movement the conveyor belts 11 is significantly shorter than the measure for the diameter of the suction roll 8 '.

Die Erfindung ist nicht auf einen bestimmten Anwendungsfall beschränkt. Die Teile 6 bzw. 7 können Einzelteile oder auch bahnförmiges Material sein.The invention is not limited to a particular application. The parts 6 and 7 can be individual parts or even web-shaped Be material.

Anstelle von mehreren Transportgurten 11 kann die Sauggurt-Transporteinrichtung 9 auch einen einzigen, breiten Sauggurt mit Sauglöchern und gegebenenfalls zusätzlich daneben je einen oder mehrere schmale, lediglich tragende Gurte aufweisen.Instead of a plurality of conveyor belts 11, the suction belt transport device 9 also has a single, wide suction belt Suction holes and possibly in addition to each one or have several narrow, only carrying straps.
