Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a gripper according to the preamble of claim 1, for the processing of tubular film sleeves for use in shrink-sleeve or stretch-sleeve labeling machines and as known from the EP 0547754 A2 ,
  • sleeve labels are processed which have an inner diameter which is larger by a certain amount than the outer diameter of the container to be labeled, with the result that the sleeve labels must be shrunk after positioning by power supply.
  • sleeve labels are processed whose inner diameter is smaller by a certain amount than the outer diameter of the container to be labeled.
  • the sleeve labels are pulled over the container with an increased force, where they then adhere due to the generated bias and the resulting frictional forces.
  • a shrinkage of the sleeve labels can be dispensed with this procedure.
  • these sleeve labels consist of a section of a plastic tube which is initially cut to length in accordance with an endless label strip.
  • Too loose clamping of the sleeve label can premature release of the label from the gripper and thus an inaccurate positioning result. Over-tightening may damage the label or printed image. Both cases are undesirable in practice and thus to be avoided.
  • This gripper is a so-called format part, which means that they must be replaced with each change in the type of container to be processed, or the container diameter to be processed.
  • the grippers are pivotable about a pivot point. Radially spaced from this pivot point is a, adjustable in length connector, whose opposite end is fixed to a rocker arm. It is proposed to adjust the stroke position of the gripper by a change in length of the connecting piece.
  • Object and purpose of the present invention is to provide a remedy and improvement, so that the adjustments described above are reduced to a minimum.
  • a gripper is proposed according to claim 1, which allows to adjust the position of the gripper stroke without changing other parameters.
  • the gripper initially consists of a U-shaped base body 1, to which all other elements are arranged directly or indirectly, fixed or movable. Another essential component are the two mirror-inverted gripper tongs 2, which are held by a respective holding device 3.
  • These holding devices 3 are rotatably mounted on a respective receiving bolt 4. These locating bolts 4 thus simultaneously represent the fulcrum for the lifting movement of the gripper.
  • the guide pins 5 are received by a receptacle, not shown, wherein this recording during the labeling process performs a pivoting movement, which is transmitted via the guide pins 5 on the gripper tongs 2 and represents the gripper stroke.
  • these also connect the gripper tongs 2 with the holding devices 3 and at the same time represent the fulcrum for the adjustment of the stroke position.
  • the adjustment of the stroke position is carried out on the basis of one gripper screw 2 disposed within the gripper 2, which is supported on a bolt 7, the grub screw 6 is constantly pressed due to the structural design of the gripper by the force of a coil spring 8 against the pin 7.
  • the position of gripper 2 and fixture 3 to each other is determined by the combination of pin 7 and grub screw 6. Because in the gripper tongs 2 located grub screw 6 due to the force of the coil spring 8 is constantly applied to the pin 7, and since the pin 7 is mounted without play in the holder 3, and there beyond the opening provided for receiving the pin 7 in the gripper 2 opening executed as a slot is, the position of the gripper 2 in relation to the holding device 3 by the screwing in or unscrewing the grub screw 6 can be changed.
  • the movement of the holding device 3 remains unchanged, only the position of the lifting movement of the gripper tongs 2 is changed, wherein the guide pin 5 represents the pivot point of Hublagenver baseung.
  • a suitable clamping device 9 e.g. a threaded screw
  • the achieved positioning can be fixed after completion of the adjustments.
  • the worm wheel e.g. is arranged concentrically to the guide pin 5 and the worm shaft rotatably but stationary on or within the gripper tongs. 2
  • the Hublagenver too by the use of a stopper and at least one spacer, wherein the spacers are planar elements such. Sheets of different thickness, or can also act around spacers of different diameters.
  • the adjustment of the stroke position is carried out by the placement of spacers of different outer diameter on the, for example, located on the holding device 3 receiving bolt. Now, if the gripper tongs 2, for example by spring force permanently pressed by means of a, located on the gripper plunger against the spacer ring, the stroke position is adjustable in this way.
