Definitions
- the invention relates to improvements to methods for reloading machines for producing packaging in plastic films, also called shrink wrapping machines or shrinkwrappers, using such films. It relates more particularly to a process allowing rapid loading of the film, and to machines implementing this process.
- Film packaging of products is a widespread technique, which allows several products to be grouped together, such as bottles, flasks, boxes, jars, or any other type of object. This technique makes it easier to transport products to a place of final destination where the packaging is removed.
- the film is the only element of the packaging, or it is associated with additional elements, such as plates, trays or the like on which the products are placed before being wrapped in film. .
- the machines intended for constituting such packages are called shrinkwrappers. They make it possible to surround each group of products with a section of film. To this end, they comprise, on the one hand, a device for feeding the groups of products to be packaged, such as a conveyor, and, where appropriate, a device for feeding the ancillary elements, and, on the other hand, a reel. film dispenser, a device for directing a first end of the film towards each group of products to be packaged, devices for placing the film around the group of products in synchronism with the advancement of the film, devices for cutting the film film when a section of sufficient length is obtained and devices for closing the film around the group of products.
- a device for feeding the groups of products to be packaged such as a conveyor, and, where appropriate, a device for feeding the ancillary elements, and, on the other hand, a reel.
- film dispenser a device for directing a first end of the film towards each group of products to be packaged, devices for placing the film around the group of products in synchronism
- the film used is heat shrinkable, and the closure is effected by clamping the film in a film heat shrink tunnel. In other machines, the closure is carried out by heat sealing or gluing.
- the device for directing a first end of the film towards the group of products to be packaged also called film injection device, comprises for example drive rollers between which the film is arranged, and, downstream of these rollers, in the direction of advancement of the film, a gripping member.
- the film, entrained between the rollers, is then gripped by the gripping member which directs it towards a conveyor or a table on which the group of products is located, and which makes the film undergo a movement allowing it to surround the group of products.
- the film is cut, so that a section of film is completely available for packaging the group of products, and the rest of the film can be used to pack the following groups of products by repeating the operations mentioned.
- the cutting means are associated with the injection device.
- the latter comprises, a first arrangement, called upstream, of two rollers in tangential contact with each other, one of the rollers being driving, the other driven, and a second arrangement, called downstream, identical in the first, two other rollers also in tangential contact, with a driving roller and a driven roller, and the cutting means are arranged between the two arrangements.
- the film is arranged so as to pass between the two rollers of each arrangement, and is driven by the pressure which is exerted between the two rollers of the same arrangement.
- the cutting means are activated at the appropriate times, in synchronism with the machine cycle.
- the machines require that the film dispensing reel be replaced regularly, when the entire available length of film has been consumed.
- the machines include a device for storing a full waiting dispensing reel on which said reel is put in place while another dispensing reel is being unwound, and the change of dispensing reel involves stop the packaging operations, and heat seal the beginning of the film of this full reel with the end of the film of the ending reel.
- This mechanism thanks to its rollers, makes the film undergo a relatively complex, and in any case not linear, path between the distributor reel and the injection device, so that if all the film had to be spun, then at the time of reloading, the new film should be positioned correctly with respect to the arrangement of compensating rollers, then engage it in the injection device by wedging it correctly to prevent it from coming out crumpled or offset laterally from the latter . These operations would take even longer to complete.
- known machines include means for detecting the approach of the end of the film on the dispensing reel during unwinding, which determine the remaining length of film on this reel and trigger when it becomes less than a value. predetermined.
- the means since it is difficult to detect a length of film wound on a reel, the means rather detect the remaining thickness of film on the dispensing reel, which is a function of the remaining length.
- detection means can be coupled to means for alerting the operator, who, from the moment he is warned, takes manual control of the machine, and monitors the unwinding of the end of the distribution reel, then stops the machine at the appropriate time and performs the heat sealing operation, before restarting the machine then removing the empty coil and putting a full one on hold.
- the detection means can be coupled to means for stopping the film.
- the method being of the type according to which, after detection of the approach of the end of the film of the distribution reel, various steps are carried out which make it possible to finish unwinding and emptying it, and to engage the film of the full coil in the injection means, so that the latter becomes distributor in turn, then the one which has been emptied is replaced by a new full coil, is characterized in that it consists: while a coil is being dispensed, placing a full reel in the machine and keeping the free end of the start of the film connected to this full reel at the inlet of the injection and cutting means; after having detected that the end of the film end of the reel being dispensed reaches a predetermined position in the machine, to stop the progression of the film of this reel in the injection and cutting means, and to cause the entrainment in the latter of the free end of the film
- this operating mode makes it possible to automate the substitution operation, which reduces the constraints of the operator, who no longer necessarily has to act immediately after the detection of the end of the approach of the end of the film of a reel. The operator then has all the time it takes to replace the coil which has just been emptied with a full one.
- the entire film of the reel being dispensed, and the predetermined position, which is detected, from the end of the end of the film of this reel, in the machine is that where said end of film leaves the injection and cutting means.
- This implementation removes the welds from one film to another.
- the method consists in monitoring the passage of the end end, of the film of the reel being dispensed, in the machine, in a predetermined position located between the reel and the means of injection and cutting, and; when the passage in this position is reached, to stop the progression of the film of this reel in the injection and cutting means, so that there remains a remaining portion of film between said end of the end of the film and the means of injection and cutting, and to cause the entrainment therein of the free end of the film connected to the full reel, so that the latter becomes a distributor; remove the empty spool and place a new full spool instead; soldering the beginning of the film from the full reel to the end of the remaining part of the film from that which has been removed.
- this implementation requires only welding in masked time, while a coil is being unwound. This leaves time for the operator to carry out this operation with precision, even in the case of films with decorative patterns; in addition, the weld has time to cool properly and there is no longer a complex and complex operation to replace the film, since the new one is driven by a remaining part, waiting.
- the detection of the predetermined position of the end of the film from the reel during distribution is carried out in two stages: a first in which the remaining length of film wound on this reel is evaluated approximately during distribution, then when a predetermined value is reached, the film progression of this reel is stopped in the injection and cutting means, the full reel is put into service by causing the drive, in these injection and cutting means , from the free end of the film connected to this full reel, so that the latter becomes a distributor and the other is stopped; and a second step in which the remaining length of the film wound on the idle reel is precisely determined, after which a) if the remaining length of film on this idle reel is sufficient to continue packaging groups of products , we stop the progression of the film of the other, distributor, in the injection and cutting means, we cause the drive, in the latter, of the free end of the film connected to the reel which was in waiting, so that it becomes distributor again, and the passage of the upstream end, the end, of the film of this reel is monitored in the machine, in said predetermined position located between the reel
- This operating mode makes it possible to take into account the difficulty that there is in measuring the remaining length of the film on a reel when the latter takes place, while avoiding losing film. It is easier to make an approximate determination of the remaining length of film, for example, as indicated above, by evaluating the remaining thickness of film wound on the reel. The evaluation can only be approximate, inter alia due to the vibrations of the machine and because there are certain tolerances on the very thickness of the film during its manufacture.
- the approximate evaluation of the remaining length of film wound on the reel being dispensed and the commissioning of the full reel can be carried out by the operator himself; however, to allow the operator to perform other actions and to prevent the reel from unwinding completely in the event that the operator is absent, automatic evaluation and automatic change are preferred.
- the monitoring of the passage of the upstream end, of the end, of the film of the reel being dispensed in the machine, in said predetermined position can be carried out by the operator or automatically.
- the machine comprising a compensation mechanism between each coil and the injection and cutting means, the predetermined position located between the coil and the injection and cutting means is monitored so that the progression of a reel being dispensed is stopped when the end of the film carried by this reel is between the reel and the corresponding compensation mechanism.
- the remaining part of the film of a reel is used to engage the film of a new reel in the compensation mechanism.
- a device for implementing the method is characterized in that it comprises two arrangements for alternately distributing the film from one reel and from the other to the injection and cutting means, which arrangements include means, known as drive and holding, arranged to hold the free end of the film of the reel on standby at the inlet of the injection and cutting means, and to allow the film of the dispensing reel to be driven in the means of injection and cutting.
- the injection and cutting means are constituted by a single device comprising, at its entry, film drive rollers, and the drive and holding means consist of two separate devices arranged upstream of the input of the single injection and cutting device, and the machine is arranged so that, after having stopped the progression of the film of a reel being dispensed in the injection and cutting means, the direction of progression of this film is reversed in the said means, so as to free the free end from the start, and it is maintained with the corresponding drive and holding device, then the end is driven free, at the start of the film on hold, to the injection and cutting with the other corresponding drive and holding device.
- the injection and cutting means are constituted by two separate devices which each receive the film from a reel, and each comprise, at their input, film drive rollers, and the drive and holding means are constituted by the drive rollers, located at the entrance of the injection and cutting devices, and the machine is arranged so that the progression of the film of a reel during distribution in an injection and cutting device is stopped by stopping the rotation of its input drive rollers, and the drive of the free end, from the start of the film on hold, in the other injection device and cutting is caused by rotating its input drive rollers.

- the member 22 here the blade, and the bar constitute the cutting device as such, which device is controlled by the control mechanism of the machine according to the desired length of the sections of film necessary to surround the groups of products.
- the bar 23 is rotated so that the edge of the blade crosses the thickness of the film during its movement.
- the bar 23 is connected to means for causing it to rotate at appropriate times as a function of the advance of the film in the machine.
- the means for causing the rotation consist of a motor, not shown, which can be sequentially controlled; alternatively, the rotational movement is caused using a cam mechanism connected for example to the drive mechanism of the rollers 1 8, 20 drivers.
- the means for causing the rotation of the bar can be connected to it directly or by means of a return mechanism.
- first 50 forming a section for packaging a group 3 of products
- second 51 integral with the dispensing reel 7.
- the first portion 50 is directed towards a group 3 of products using a mobile guide device 25, known per se, and constituted for example by an arrangement of bars which come to grip the film at its exit from the arrangement downstream of pressure rollers 20, 21, and subject it to an appropriate path, symbolized by the broken line 26 to surround the group 3 of products, while the second portion 51 continues to be driven by the arrangement of the two rollers 1 8 , 1 9 injection upstream of the means 1 7.
- the two arrangements are arranged in such a way that, or are associated with means not shown such that, when the film has been cut, the end 27 of the second portion 51 of film, which is then between the two arrangements is directed between the two rollers 20, 21 of the downstream arrangement and is taken up by the latter, before being gripped in turn by the guide device 25 which drives it to the next group of products by traversing at again the appropriate path symbolized by the broken line 26.
- a full reel 70 is placed in the machine, while the film 5 of the dispensing reel 7 is being unwound, and the free end 52 of the film 53 connected to this full reel is kept on standby , at the entrance of the injection and cutting means.
- the machine comprises between this full reel 70 and the inlet of the injection means, a second set of guide devices, with rollers 1 1 0, 120, 1 30, 140, which for some 1 1 0, 1 20, are compensating rollers. These are then attached to mobile mechanisms 1 50, 1 60, such as puppets.
- the film 53 connected to the full reel is in two parts: a first 54, which constitutes the remaining portion of the film of a reel which has previously been unwound in place of the reel 70, and a second 55 which constitutes the beginning of the film originally placed on the full reel.
- the two parts 54, 55 are connected together by a hot weld 56.
- the welding 56 is therefore carried out at the end of the film of the reel which was previously in place of the reel 70 and at the start of the film of the reel 70, when the latter is put in place.
