Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for transfer a folding box from a flat-lying one Condition recording magazine on a rotating conveyor while standing upright with one the folding box taking over and during the handover supporting holding device and an erecting member, wherein the holding device and the erecting member on one Planet part of a planetary gear rotatably mounted are and on a hypocycloid orbit with multiple reversal points and moving curves in between, the planetary part on a planet carrier is rotatably mounted about a fixed sun axis rotates.
  • Such a device is found in cartoning machines Use where it is necessary to feed the product to be packed first in a magazine Folded boxes in flat folded condition to erect and usually in a Belt or chain conveyor trained conveyor to provide.
  • everyone Folding box in particular by means of a holding device in the form of a suction device that is attached to a on a sun gear planet part of a removal device is arranged, taken from the magazine and with this on a hypocycloid track the chain conveyor fed and in one between two trained there The intermediate space formed is taken away.
  • the invention has for its object a device of the kind mentioned at the beginning to create one has a compact structure and reliable handover the folding box to the conveyor ensures.
  • a first correction shaft comprises, on the one hand, indirectly the 1st control curve taps and thereby rotatable and on the other hand a 1st gear arrangement an eccentric and parallel to your arranged 1st drive shaft drives the holding device wearing.
  • the 2nd gear arrangement includes a second correction wave, on the one hand indirect taps the second control cam and is therefore rotatable is and on the other hand via a second gear arrangement eccentric and parallel to the second drive shaft drives the erection organ, the two correction shafts and the two drive shafts each run coaxially to each other.
  • the coaxial arrangement the drive shafts and the correction shafts uses the existing space optimally and keeps the eccentricity and the associated additional burdens the transfer device when moving.
  • the first correction wave is preferably a hollow shaft designed that penetrated by the 2nd correction wave is.
  • the 2nd drive shaft can be a hollow shaft be penetrated by the 1st drive shaft is.
  • FIGS 1 and 2 show a transfer device 1 for a folding box with a fixed frame part 7, in which a sun axis 5 is held firmly.
  • a sun gear 3 On the Sun axis 5, a sun gear 3 is fixed, the one encircling external toothing 3a, which with the Toothing of an intermediate gear 13 meshes.
  • a cam plate 4 On the sun axis 5, a cam plate 4 is also attached, the side facing the sun gear 3 a 1st control curve 4a and on the sun gear 3 opposite side has a second cam 4b, the both in the form of a circumferential groove are.
  • a 1st correction shaft 16 designed as a hollow shaft rotatably mounted on its rear
  • the sun gear 3 facing end carries a lever 32 which has a 1st cam roller 10a rotatably supports that in the 1st control curve 4a the cam 4 runs with a tight fit.
  • the 1st Correction shaft 16 attached a 1st drive gear 17 the one sun gear related to the planet carrier 11 represents.
  • the sun gear 3 facing end carries a yoke-shaped lever 9 which encompasses the cam disc 4 and a second cam roller 10b rotatably mounted in the rear of the cam 4 trained 2nd control curve 4b under closer Fit expires.
  • the 2nd correction shaft 20 carries a 2nd drive gear 21, also related to the planet carrier 11 represents a sun gear and immediately next to the 1st Drive gear 17 of the 1st correction shaft 16 is arranged is.
  • an intermediate shaft 15 over axially spaced Bearings 33a, 33b rotatably supported in the planetary part 11.
  • a first intermediate gear 18 sits on the intermediate shaft 15, that with the 1st drive gear 17 of the 1st correction shaft 16 combs, and a second intermediate gear 19, which with the 2nd Drive gear 21 of the second correction shaft 20 meshes.
  • the two intermediate gears 18 and 19 are relative to each other rotatable.
  • the 1st drive shaft 22 carries a drive gear 23 with the 1st intermediate gear 18 of the intermediate shaft 15 combs. This intervention too is from Figures 1 and 2 due to the above. rotated representation not visible.
  • the first drive shaft 22 ends in the area the bracket 26 from the second drive shaft 24 and carries in axial extension a holding arm 25 which runs essentially parallel to the drive rod 27 and a plurality of holding devices 28 in the form of suction cups carries, by means of which a folding box can be picked up.
  • FIG. 3 shows the basic arrangement of the transfer device inside a cartoning machine.
  • the cartoning machine has a rotating chain conveyor 43 on, the several driving fingers arranged at a distance 44, between which spaces 45 are formed are in each case a folding box 40 can be used is.
  • the chain conveyor 43 is from above with folding boxes filled, its conveying direction F essentially extends horizontally.
  • Above the chain conveyor 43 near the deflection point is the transfer device 1 provided. Which is when the planet carrier is driven 2 and tapping of the 1st control curve 4a, hypocycloid orbit H centered on the sun axis 5 for the contact surface of the suction cup 28 is shown in FIG. 5.
  • the hypocycloid path H comprises three reversal points P1, P2, P3 on the corner points of an approximately equilateral Triangular.
  • the sense of circulation along the hypocycloid trajectory H is essentially clockwise, as indicated by the arrows U. Since the sense of circulation of chain conveyor 43 runs clockwise, are the movements in the facing, adjacent sections essentially opposite.
  • the cycloid path is also shown in FIG. 5 H 'depicted without the through the Control curves 4a and 4b caused correction rotary movements would result.
  • FIG. 3 shows the state in the top left illustration, in which the suction cups 28 at the first reversal point P1 are to which a magazine 41 is assigned, in which the Folding boxes 40 in a flat folded state are included.
  • the suction cups 28 activated and thereby the lower carton 40 of Magazine 41 seized.
  • the Planet carrier 2 With the further movement of the Planet carrier 2 (see Figure 4) becomes the contact surface the sucker 28 together with the folding box 40 on the 1.
  • curve curve of the hypocycloid path H in the direction of the second Reversal point P2 moves in which a suction cup 42nd is arranged.
  • the folding box 40 with the Lifting vacuum 42 brought into contact, causing the folding box 40 with further movement of the suction cups 28 is pulled apart to a small extent.
