Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and a device for producing a packaging unit for plate-shaped workpieces from a filled sub-carton and a separate top carton blank.
  • top carton is very difficult on the bottom carton can be placed, since, for example, the top carton Can tilt tilting, the dimensions of upper and Sub-box should not be appropriately matched can or one of the cardboard boxes in the production Changes in shape undergoes the placement of the top carton can hamper.
  • disadvantages of the prior art are particularly pronounced when placing the top carton on the sub-carton - as usual today - by machine he follows. Overall, these problems always arise again disturbances in the procedure for packing the Workpieces.
  • the applicant is still a Another method of forming a packaging unit known.
  • a one-piece Cutting to use from which lower and upper carton be formed integrally. This is from a first Section of the blank by folding and gluing a subboard made on one edge of his Loading opening still a second section unfolded Blank has. After loading this box with Workpieces is in a further process step from the second section, with the filled sub-carton is connected by folding and gluing a top board formed, which completes the sub-carton.
  • the procedure has a number of disadvantages. So is the one-piece blank for top and bottom carton more difficult to produce and handle than separate Blanks.
  • the one of the folded sub-box laterally projecting second section when filling and Conveying the sub-carton often obstructs and requires, as well like panning the second section while making the Top boxes, additional space.
  • These circumstances are in turn particularly disadvantageous with machine processing.
  • US-A-6 048 421 and EP-A-0 460 495 disclose a method according to the preamble of claim 1 and a Device according to the preamble of claim 3.
  • the invention is based on the idea of forming the Top cartons and connecting it to the sub-carton procedurally integrate, thereby the Overall process of the procedure to improve and to simplify.
  • the invention provides Procedures great design freedom in terms of Execution of the upper carton, for example, the used Materials or various optical effects, since the Upper carton is formed from a separate blank. So for example, the sub-carton can be made from a simple Material and the top cardboard from a possibly printable be made of higher quality material.
  • the Sub-box for connecting to the top board in areas provided with adhesive, in particular with HotMelt. hereby it is ensured that simultaneously with the formation, i. with the folding of the upper carton a connection of the Upper cartons is made with the sub-carton.
  • the formation of the Upper cartons and connecting to the lower carton at least partly in a continuous process because in this way a continuous and speedy procedure allows becomes. It is according to the present invention provided that making the top carton and joining with the sub-carton in a continuous process by means of rollers which is used to create tabs of the top carton blank abut on these. With the help of this method arises a particularly undisturbed and continuous Procedure in which disturbing counter pressure elements in Area of folding edges can be omitted, so that also a simplified design and control of Folding device results.
  • the inventive method is particularly advantageous with the apparatus for performing this Perform the method according to claim 3.
  • This device is carried out in such a way that it is an implementation of the method in continuous operation enabled.
  • the Device features of the invention, the implementation of the inventive method by at least one Folding a roller set with in the conveying direction of the Sub-boxes has successively arranged roles, the for applying tabs of the top carton blank to this issue. This will allow that to pass through of the bottom and top boxes at the same time making and Connecting the top carton is achieved.
  • the Axes of the rollers when applying the tabs substantially run parallel to the plane of the tabs to be applied and no to a folded edge formed during application form right angles, i. the roles are opposite to the Passage direction inclined. Due to the inclination The roles arise between the roles and the one to be created Tabs a frictional force, which it according to the invention allows, on counter-pressure elements in the folding edge to renounce, as in the post-published German Patent application with the official file number 101 49 053.4 is described in detail.
  • the boundary conditions of the folding process for example the Geometry of the top carton blank to be able to the rollers preferably pivotable about the folding edge and / or order an axis perpendicular to the plane of the tabs to be applied rotatable. This will increase the flexibility of the Folding device achieved.
  • folding devices can also conventional roller sets, pivot arms, hinged flaps, Have guide surfaces or deflection shoes.
  • FIGS. 1 to 6 a method will be described for forming a sub-carton.
  • Fig. 1 shows a Stack 11 'sub-carton blanks 11, each Longitudinal side flaps 12, corner flaps 13, narrow side flaps 14, Longitudinal side folding edges 15 and narrow side folding edges 16 exhibit.
  • To form a sub-box is a Sub-carton blank 11 removed from the stack 11 '(FIG. 2) and the narrow side flaps 14 are each with two Glue dots 17 provided (Fig. 3). Subsequently, the Corner flaps 13 folded at 90 ° to the narrow side folding edge 16 (Fig.
  • Figures 7 to 12 illustrate a method for Forming a top carton 20 on the previously manufactured and filled sub-carton 10 and for connecting them according to an embodiment of the present invention.
  • Fig. 7 shows a stack 21 'of upper carton blanks 21, the in each case a longitudinal side flap 22, a corner flap 23, a Narrow side flap 24, a Llindsschefaltkante 25 and a Have narrow side folding edge 26.
  • a first step the with plate-shaped workpieces 3 filled sub-carton 10 in Area of its narrow side flaps 14 with adhesive strips 27 provided (FIG. 8), wherein preferably an adhesive of the type HotMelt is used.
  • a Upper carton blank 21 taken from the stack 21 'and aligned with the plate-shaped workpieces. 3 filled sub-carton 10 placed.
  • Aligned means in that the folded edges 25, 26 of the upper carton blank 21st essentially with the edges of the loading opening of the Sub-boxes 10 are aligned. As can be seen in FIG.
  • Fig. 13 shows schematically a device 30 for Implementation of the method described above according to a Embodiment of the present invention.
  • the device 30 has a folding device 31 for producing a Sub-cartons 10 according to that in Figs. 1 to 6 illustrated method, a filling line 32 for filling a sub-carton 10 with plate-shaped workpieces 3, Conveyor belts 33 for conveying the sub-carton through the Device 30, a Vakuumsaugtraverse, not shown for aligning a top carton blank 21 the sub-carton 10, adhesive nozzles 34 to provide the Sub-cartons and top carton with glue and a Folding device 35 for forming the top carton on the filled sub-carton and to connect the top carton with the sub-carton.
  • a preferred embodiment of Folding means 35 will be explained in more detail below described.
  • This sub-carton 10 is with the aid of conveyor belts 33 to the filling line 32nd promoted, where plate-shaped workpieces 3 in the sub-carton 10 are inserted.
  • the filled sub-carton 10 is after by means of further conveyor belts 33 to adhesive nozzles 34th promoted and there as shown in Fig. 8 with adhesive Mistake. Subsequently, as also in FIG.
