Definitions

  • the invention relates to a packaging machine with a Transfer device, by means of a product in a package is insertable, and with a circulating brochure conveyor device, the a variety of pincers; in a row arranged holders for receiving one each Prospectus and with the prospectus in the field of Transfer device between the product and the packaging is bringable, so that together with the product in the Packaging is insertable, wherein in the transport of the holder an opening unit with several independently actuable stops is arranged by means of the Holder to release the prospectus are open and where the attacks can be brought into a non-functional position are in which the holder without release of the prospectus to the Run past stops.
  • a packaging machine of the type mentioned usually has a first circulating conveyor for the packaging, for example, a so-called folding carton chain, and a second circulating conveyor for the products, for example, a so-called product chain.
  • the two Chains are synchronized in their movements such that the product transverse to the direction of movement of the chains a plunger inserted laterally into the carton can be.
  • a further circulating conveyor device provided which carries several pliers-like holders, one each Record brochure and hold by clamping.
  • a brochure to be inserted into the packaging is in the Conveying device between the product and the carton moved and by the lateral insertion movement of the Product taken from this and in the carton introduced.
  • the pliers-like holder must be opened and the Release the prospectus.
  • an opening unit for example in Form of a stop wedge provided on the pincers Holder runs in its conveying motion, causing the Open pliers arms and release the leaflet.
  • the packaging machine may cause minor irregularities occur, as appropriate the feeding of cartons to the carton chain or the delivery of products to the product chain discontinuously takes place, so that either the carton chain in one or more sections not with one Folding box or the product chain in one or more Sections not occupied by a product.
  • the missing a carton or a product is by means of a Detected sensor, whereupon the insertion of the product is omitted or the plunger is not activated.
  • each stop element in the transport direction the pincer-like holder is smaller than the mutual distance or the grid of successive Holder, so that each stop element in its functional position can return as soon as an unopenable Holder has passed him and before the next one Holder comes in the area of the stop element. It has however, it has been shown that the cycle times, i. the succession the pincer-like holder and thus the brochures, too short for fast-acting packaging machines, to decide on opening or not opening the Pliers and thus on the adjustment of the attacks or to meet the stop elements and in addition the adjustment movements the attacks if necessary with sufficient Perform precision.
  • the invention is based on the object, a packaging machine of the type mentioned, in the case of a precise adjustment of the stops a sufficient Period is available.
  • This object is achieved according to the invention in a packaging machine of the type mentioned solved by the prospectus conveyor 1st holder, the only one stop to open, and 2. has holders that only one 2nd stop are open, and that in the row consecutive Holder interact with different stops and open.
  • the leaflet conveyor pliers-like holder in two various designs, namely 1. Holder and 2. Holder wearing.
  • the 1st holders are assigned a 1st adjustable stop, through which the 1st holder can be opened, when the 1st stop is in its functional position and a 1st holder runs onto the first stop.
  • For the 2nd holder is provided with a second adjustable stop, which opens the second holder when it is in its functional position and a second holder runs on it.
  • the leaflet conveyor additionally has 3. holder, which only with a 3. Stop are open.
  • the stops are preferably in the form of known per se Stop parts or stop strips configured, one above the other are arranged and next to the brochure conveyor lie and extend in the longitudinal direction.
  • the stops each under spring preload in their Non-functional position stand, so that it's activation a controllable actuator needs to a Stop against its spring preload in the functional position to bring or to keep in this, as long as the for opening the pincer-like holder and releasing Prospectus necessary conditions are met.
  • at the actuator may be a pneumatic or hydraulic adjusting cylinder act.
  • the attacks substantially perpendicular to the transport direction of the brochure conveying device adjustable and in particular displaceable.
  • a first detector device is provided, by means of the insertion movement of the product in the packaging and a corresponding input signal is delivered to a control device becomes.
  • An insertion movement of the product occurs only upon initiation of the plunger, which in turn depends on compliance depends on the above conditions. If Thus, the first detector device detects that the plunger moved or the product is inserted, the top all of these conditions. The insertion signal indicates, therefore, whether the prospectus by opening the assigned pincer-like holder is to release or Not.
  • a second detector device provided by means of the position and the type of the next openable holder detectable is and a corresponding holder signal to the Releases control device.
  • the 2nd detector device provides thus, it is determined that a holder reaches a predetermined position and whether it is a holder of the 1st type (1. Holder), which is to open with the 1st stop to a Holder of the second type (2nd holder), that with the 2nd stop is open or if necessary to a holder of the 3.
  • Type (3rd holder) acts to open with the 3rd stop is.
  • the first detector device, the 2nd detector device and the opening unit with all attacks in the transport direction of the brochure conveyor are adjustable as a unit.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of a transfer device 10 of a packaging machine, one in the direction of the arrow FK extending, shown only schematically Faltschachtelkette 28 for holding cartons or Packaging V and a parallel to it in the direction of Arrow PK extending product chain 29, on the zu packaging products P are included.
  • the illustration are in Fig. 1 only a package V and a product P is shown.
  • the carton chain 28 and the product chain 29 are so synchronized in their movements, that the product P by means of a plunger 11 in the Transfer device 10 transversely to the direction of movement of the chains 28, 29 are inserted into the opened packaging V. can.
  • the plunger 11 follows an insertion curve EK.
  • the prospectus 22, 23 is guided so that it is in the field of Transfer device 10 between the package V and the Product P lies and during the lateral insertion of the product P taken in the packaging V of this and in the Packaging V is introduced.
  • clamping holders 15, 16 are opened.
  • the opening unit 12 comprises two independent ones Opening devices, each as adjustable stops 13 and 14 are formed, wherein the stops are arranged one above the other and parallel to the transport path PZK the brochure forceps chain 27 and the pincers Holder 15, 16 extend.
  • Each stop 13, 14 is a Actuator 24 and 25 associated, by means the stops 13, 14 substantially perpendicular to Transport path PZK of the pliers-like holder 15, 16 between a functional position and a withdrawn non-functional position are adjustable.
  • Each stop 13, 14 is by means of a spring, not shown in his Non-functional position biased.
  • pliers-like holders are different Construction appropriate. All holders have in known manner jaws or pliers to the prospectus 22nd or 23 to be clamped. In addition, each holder owns a transversely to the transport path PZK extending axis 30, on each of the two rollers 17a and 18a are rotatably mounted, which form a stop part of the holder 15 and 16 respectively.
  • holders 15, 16 differ in terms of the Arrangement and orientation of their stop members 17, 18 and their roles 17a, 18a.
  • Type (1st holder 15) is the stop member 17 with the rollers 17a aligned so that this with the stop 13 (1. Stop) comes into contact when it is in its functional position located.
  • the second stop 14 is for the 1st Holder 15 ineffective. Accordingly, in a holder 2. Type (2nd holder 16) the stop member 18 with the local Rolls 18a aligned so that these pass by the opening unit 12 with the second stop 14 in Appendix come when it is in its functional position. The first stop 13 is ineffective for the second holder 16.
  • the 1st and 2nd holders 15 and 16 are on the brochure tongs chain 27 alternately arranged, i. every second Holder is a holder of the 1st type, while between them in each case a holder of the second type is provided.
  • the plunger 11 is a first detector device 19 assigned by means of which can be detected whether the plunger 11 is moved and thus the product P einschiebt.
  • the first detector device 19 is via a data line L a corresponding insertion signal to a Control device 26.
  • a second detector device 20 provided by means of which that the next openable pincer-like holder a predetermined Position has reached and what type of this holder has, i. whether he through the 1st stop 13 or the 2nd stop 14 of the opening unit 12 is open.
  • the 2. Detector device 20 outputs a corresponding holder signal to the control device 26 from. In the control device the signals are processed.
  • the 1st detector device 19 When the 1st detector device 19 has determined that the product P is inserted This means that all necessary conditions for the release of the leaflet 22 and 23 from the pliers-like Holder 15, 16 are satisfied.
  • the control device 26 controls the actuator 24, 25 of that stop 13, 14, the next openable pincers Holder 15 is assigned and by the second detector device 20 was determined.
  • the stop member comes 17 of the first holder 15 via the rollers 17 a with the 1st stop 13 in Appendix, if this in its functional position located. Due to the abutment of the stop part 17 at the first stop 13 is the pincers 15, so that the prospectus of the product P at its Inserted movement and taken into the packaging V can be introduced.
  • the tong-like holder 15 can thereby remain open relatively long, as the next to open Holder owns another type and with the other Stop cooperates.
  • the stop member is 18 of the pliers-like holder 16 with the associated Stop 14 still in Appendix, when the stop member 17th the next pincer-like holder 15 already with the other Stop 13 comes into contact.
  • the first detector device 19 detects that the product P is not inserted, it means that not all necessary for a proper handover of the product Conditions are met.
  • the corresponding insertion signal indicates to the controller 26 that the next pliers-like holder associated stop in the Non-functional position is to bring the holder does not run up to the stop and accordingly not is opened. The prospect thus remains in the pincers Holder and will be elsewhere on the brochure pliers chain taken and derived.
