Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and a device for shaping and partial assembly in continuous of a packaging, from a blank precut and repressed in a semi-rigid material such than cardboard or corrugated cardboard.
  • a package including a plurality of sidewalls articulated together by first folding lines and of which at least some of them comprise, at least one of their ends, a flap called "flap" articulated on the adjoining wall by a second line fold lines, the second folding lines associated with the shutters arranged at same end being arranged in the same transverse plane of the conditioning, so that the folded flaps are arranged substantially in this plane in contact with contiguous and assembled shutters and locked in this position by means known in the art. technical.
  • the packages to which this process applies are especially of the general type of American boxes or half-boxes American, straight prisms with parallel edges and section polygonal, or truncated pyramid-based boxes triangular, quadrangular and, more generally, polygonal and, after volume, they remain open at one end, so that they can be filled immediately.
  • a method and a device for setting volume of cases or the like from a flat cut out of cardboard or corrugated cardboard in which the different operations of shaping the cutting and gluing a junction tab is made around a section mandrel polygonal similar to that of the box to be made, which is animated by a rotational motion in a vertical plane with respect to an axis horizontal, this chuck stopping at various stations (see page 4, line 23 on page 5, line 17), before returning to his starting point.
  • the present invention aims to improve such methods by using a shaper such as a mandrel, around which a pre-cut blank and discharged into a semi-rigid material is folded, shaped and assembled by gluing, while the mandrel moves continuously, during these different operations, without any interruption of his movement.
  • a shaper such as a mandrel
  • a single shaper In the case where a single shaper is used, it can be animated by a rectilinear movement during his after extracting the conditioned packaging and partially assembled, be brought back by a reverse movement to its position of departure.
  • the invention also relates to a device for the implementation of of this method, this device comprising at least one rigid shaper of general external section corresponding to the less partially to the internal section of the packaging to be made, a feeding means of this shaper with a pre-cut blank and repressed, preferably previously folded in U or J, a means to drive the shaper and the blank in successive stations, fixed or mobile means being provided in these stations or between these to fold all the walls of the blank around the shaper, so that it conforms to the shape of it, as well as means for rendering one another in this position two adjacent contiguous walls, a means to replicate flaps, arranged in positions contiguous to one end of the walls and to assemble these flaps, and a means capable of sliding one compared to each other the conditioning thus shaped and partially assembled and the shaper to separate them one from the other, this device being characterized in that the means shaper gives him a continuous movement, without any interrupt, between its starting point and the point where the conditioning placed in volume and partially assembled is separated from the shaper
  • the conformators in number adapted to the speed of formation of packaging, serve as support for the walls and flaps of the blank, when these are subject to the thrust of the means that bring them into their assembly position on the shaper, and they also allow assembly by gluing or joining of these elements.
  • These means may be for example fixed or mobile guides or shutters ordered.
  • the cardboard starting blank corrugated comprises four walls 1, articulated together by first parallel fold lines and at each end which are articulated by fold lines perpendicular to the previous shutters called "flaps", respectively 2 and 3, for be folded perpendicular to the adjoining walls.
  • a tongue 4 of bonding which is articulated by a parallel line at the first fold lines following the free edge of a wall 1 adjoining the contiguous wall is intended to stick against the face internal of this contiguous wall.
  • Pre-cut and repressed blanks are extracted one by one from a feeder 10 and are previously folded in J, as seen on the 2, before coming to cap a shaper 5 whose surface the outer surface is substantially complementary to the inner surface of the American fund to realize, the blank folded in J thus coming into contact of three contiguous walls 1 of this blank.
  • the shaper 5 is driven step-by-step without interruption of movement, by a system of training at successive stations, between which or in which means such as fixed or moving guides or controlled movable shutters, which bring the fourth wall 1 in contact with the shaper 5, with the tongue 4 previously glued in contact with the inner face of the wall 1 contiguous. These walls are then pressed against the shaper 5, so as to make them integral with the walls which are their contact.
  • the wall 1 which sticks against the tongue 4 previously glued is folded and applied in a simple way against this tongue by contact with a fixed guide during his displacement under the stress of the shaper 5.
  • the flaps 2 which are arranged in positions contiguous to a end of the shaper, after being glued, are then folded perpendicular to the adjoining walls, to come into contact mutual and thus be assembled by gluing, while the flaps 2 arranged at the other end remain in the extension of the walls Attached.
  • the American fund 6 thus volume and partially assembled, but with an open end, is then cleared from the shaper 5 by relative sliding relative to each other, then she is straightened up and evacuated by a conveyor 7 to a filling, while the shaper 5 is returned to its position of departure to resume a new cycle of formatting and assembly of a new blank.
  • a plurality of conformers 5 are used in synchronization, each of which in turn reaches one of the stations of the assembly and assembly cycle.
  • Each shaper 5 is carried by a moving assembly 8, which is driven continuously, without interruption of its movement, by a motor system, not shown, following a closed path, materialized by guides 9, of appropriate profile.
  • the method described here concerns a parallelepiped packaging, but it applies equally well to packaging with only three walls or more than four walls, the fold lines between the walls being be parallel, as described here, or arranged obliquely to form a volume of generally trapezoidal shape, or prism, or truncated pyramid.
