Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a method of transporting packagings, in particular bottles, and offering the same for sale, wherein the packagings are transferred to a transport container at the end of a filling line and the transport container is transported to a sales outlet.
- With a known method for use with wine bottles, said wine bottles are packed in boxes, which function as transport containers, at the end of the bottling line. At the sales outlet, the bottles are stored in the boxes or removed therefrom and placed on the shelves.
- The object of the invention is to further improve this method which is known from practice.
- In order to accomplish that objective, the method according to the invention is characterized in that a roll container is used as the transport container, to which roll container the packagings are directly transferred, whilst the roll container functions as a display unit at the sales outlet.
- In this way a considerable saving is achieved, because boxes are not needed when using this manner of transporting, which is very advantageous both from an environmental viewpoint and from an economic viewpoint. Furthermore, a number of operations with regard to packaging and transport no longer need to be carried out, whilst economies are possible at the sales outlet in that the roll container can be used as a display unit.
- It is advantageous if the packagings are transferred from the filling line to an extended platform of the roll container, which platform is moved to a retracted transport position as soon as it is filled with packagings, whilst preferably several platforms of a roll container are filled in succession in that the platforms are extended one after another to a position on a filling table by means of an operating element, whereby the filling table and the roll container are adjusted for height with respect to each other and the filling table is preferably moved in vertical direction between the level of the bottling line, where the packagings are placed onto the platform, and the level at which the respective packaging-filled platform is placed in the roll container.
- In this way the roll container can be filled with packagings in a simple manner, wherein it is even possible to continue to use the usual means for packing packagings, such as wine bottles, into boxes at the end of a bottling line, whereby the packagings are loaded onto a platform instead of in boxes, however. In this way, existing filling lines can quite easily be adapted for use of the method according to the present invention.
- The invention furthermore relates to the aforesaid roll container for transporting packagings in accordance with the claimed method, in particular bottles, and displaying the same for sale, which roll container according to the invention comprises at least one extendible platform for receiving a number of packagings, wherein the platform is movable between an extended loading position and a retracted, locked transport position.
- In connection with the movements of the platform, the roll container is preferably fitted with guides for movably supporting the platform, whilst the platform is fitted with a number of wheels, by means of which the platform can be moved over said guides. It is advantageous thereby if the wheels function as locking elements for the platform and to that end engage in associated locking recesses in the guides in the locked transport position.
- In this embodiment the wheels have a dual function, therefore, viz. facilitating the movement of the associated platform between the filling position and the transport position, and locking the platform in the transport position. The wheels are thereby aided by the weight of the filled packagings in that the wheels will have moved down into the locking recesses in the transport position, so that the platform can only be moved out of the transport position if the wheels roll out of the locking recesses while the platform is being lifted. This is hardly possible, if at all, when the platform carrying the packagings weighs a few dozen kilograms. When the platform is empty and weighs only a few kilograms, the wheels can move up out of the locking recesses much more easily when a pushing force is exerted on the platform in the direction of the extended filling position.
- The invention furthermore relates to an apparatus for transferring packagings from a filling line to a transport container.
- The invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to the drawing, which shows a very schematic representation of an exemplary embodiment of the invention.
- Fig. 1 schematically illustrates the method of transferring bottles from a bottling line to a roll container.
- Fig. 2 is a schematic side elevation of the roll container comprising a platform of bottles.
- Fig. 3 is a front view of the subject matter of Fig. 2.
- Fig. 4 is a sectional view along line IV-IV in Fig. 3, wherein the platform is not shown.
- Fig. 5 is a view corresponding to Fig. 4, with the platform in the transport position.
-
- The drawings show an exemplary embodiment of the method, which is in particular geared to the transport of wine bottles from a bottling line and the subsequent offering for sale thereof; it should be considered, however, that the invention can also be used for bottles having different contents, and even for other types of packagings. Think in this connection of squeeze-bottles for cleansing agents, cardboard packagings for (washing) powders or beverages and the like.
- Fig. 1 shows, on the right-hand side thereof, a positioning belt 1 at the end of a bottling line. Empty bottles are supplied in this bottling line, which bottles are subsequently washed, filled, corked up, capsulated and labelled, after which they are supplied to the positioning belt 1. On said positioning belt, a number of bottles A (six, for example) are lifted by the neck by means of suction cups or
grippers 2, and subsequently said bottles are boxed, twelve per box, in bottling lines according to the prior art. - According to the invention, on the other hand, the bottles A are transferred to a filling table 3, on which a
platform 4 from aroll container 5 is present. Saidroll container 5 comprises a number ofplatforms 4 to be arranged one above another, which are movable between a transport position in the roll container and a filling position on filling table 3. To this end the apparatus according to the invention is provided with an operating element 6, which is adjustable for height and which can thus be brought into alignment with one of theplatforms 4 and which is capable of subsequently pushing against a platform so as to extend said platform to a position on a filling table. On the other hand, the operating element 6 is capable of engaging aplatform 4 which is present on filling table 3 and retracting saidplatform 4 to its transport position in theroll container 5 again. For this purpose, also filling table 3 is adjustable for height between the (fixed) level of the positioning belt 1 at the end of the bottling line and the level at which theplatform 4 is to be moved into theroll container 5. - The filling table 3 and the operating element 6 can be added to an existing bottling line so as to adapt said bottling line for use of the method according to the present invention, whilst the bottling line itself requires hardly any modifications, if at all.
- Figs. 2 - 6 schematically show parts of the
roll container 5 indicated in Fig. 1.Uprights 7 can be distinguished in Figs. 2 - 5, which uprights are positioned in the corners of the roll container and which may form part of walls or which may only be interconnected in a few places. Present on saiduprights 7, on opposite sides of theroll container 5, areguides 8, in this embodiment in the form of horizontal U-sections or L-sections, which are open on their sides facing towards each other. Each pair ofguides 8 functions to support aplatform 4, in such a manner that saidplatform 4 is movable between a locked transport position within theroll container 5 and an extended filling position entirely or partially outside theroll container 5. - In order to make it possible to move the
platforms 4, eachplatform 4 is fitted with fourwheels wheels 9 at the rear end of theguides 8 are offset with respect to thewheels 10 in a direction transversely to the direction of movement of saidplatform 4, whichwheels 10 are spaced less far apart thanwheels 9 in this embodiment. As is also shown in Fig. 4,guides 8 are provided withlocking recesses locking recesses 11 at least substantially corresponds to the spacing betweenwheels 9, whilst the spacing between thelocking recesses 12 corresponds to that of thewheels 10. In this way, thewheels 9 will not move into thelocking recesses 12 for thewheels 10 when theplatform 4 is being extended from theroll container 5, but past said locking recesses, so that thewheels locking recesses - In the down position of
platform 4, whereinwheels locking recesses platform 4 with the full bottles A present thereon will prevent upward movement ofplatform 4. The joint weight will amount to 50 - 60 kg in the illustrated embodiment. If aplatform 4 is empty and is to be refilled in a bottling plant, the low weight (for example 3 - 4 kg) of aplatform 4 will allowwheels locking recesses platform 4 in question. It stands to reason that thewheels locking recesses wheels locking recesses wheels recesses - The
roll container 5 furthermore includes, at a level some distance above eachplatform 4 or theguides 8 therefor, a holding element 13 (transport lock), in this embodiment consisting of a wire frame which can extend around all the bottles present on aplatform 4, thus preventing bottles A from falling off. During the time that theroll container 5 is present at the sales outlet, such as a supermarket or the like, and during the filling of theplatforms 4, theholding element 13, or allholding elements 13, will be pivoted to an inactive position, so as to enable easy placement and removal of bottles A. -
Platform 4 may furthermore include dividingmeans 14, in this embodiment in the form of a dividing platform, which is fixedly connected toplatform 4 and which is provided with a number of walls extending in the direction of movement ofplatform 4, thus separating rows of bottles A in transverse direction from each other. - From the foregoing it will be apparent that the invention provides a method for transporting packagings, in particular bottles, such as wine bottles, and offering the same for sale which is remarkable for its efficiency and great saving on packaging material.
- The invention is not restricted to the embodiment as shown in the drawings, which can be varied in several ways without departing from the scope of the claims. Thus,
platforms 4 may also be guided in such a manner that they remain connected to the associated guides during filling. In that case the filling of the platforms will have to take place at several levels, of course. On the other hand it is possible to dispose the filling table and the operating element at a fixed height and to place the roll container on a lift so as to move said roll container upwards and downwards for extending and retracting the various platforms.
