Definitions
- the invention relates to a blister packaging machine with a forming station in which a multiplicity of cup-like depressions can be formed in a base film, a filling station in which a product can be filled into the cup-like recesses, and a subsequent sealing station in which a cover film is applied the bottom film is sealable, the filling station comprising a brush box arranged above the bottom film, in which a plurality of rotationally driven roller brushes are arranged in parallel next to one another, the roller brushes being connected to a rotary drive which is accommodated in a drive box arranged adjacent to the brush box.
- a blister packaging machine of conventional design comprises a molding station in which a multiplicity of cup-shaped depressions are formed in a base film made of plastic or aluminum, into each of which a product, for example a pharmaceutical tablet, is inserted in a downstream filling station. After the product has been fed in, the base film is fed to a sealing station. Immediately in front of or within the sealing station a cover film is fed in and placed on the base film. The cover film is sealed tightly to the base film by the action of heat within the sealing station, as a result of which the product is enclosed in the cup-like depression.
- the forming station is usually operated intermittently and therefore discontinuously.
- the filling station and the sealing station can either also be operated intermittently, but alternatively it is also known to operate the stations continuously, as a result of which the transition from the intermittent operation of the forming station to the continuous operation of the filling station and the sealing station per se known compensation devices.
- the filling station comprises a brush box, in which a large number of roller brushes are rotatably mounted in a close packing, transverse to the direction of movement of the base film and parallel to one another.
- the brush box is arranged directly above the base film, the cup-like depressions of which are open towards the top, ie towards the brush box.
- a sufficient amount of the product, for example a larger number of tablets, is supplied on the top of the brush box.
- the brush box has the function of distributing the tablets over the bottom film that passes beneath it, the tablets getting into the cup-like depressions of the bottom film due to gravity.
- a drive box is arranged next to the brush box, which receives a rotary drive by means of which the roller brushes can be rotated.
- each roller brush the rotary or.
- Drive movement is transmitted to the associated roller brush by means of a shaft penetrating the wall of a drive opening.
- the number and design of the roller brushes of the brush box depends on the type and size of the product to be filled.
- all shafts of the roller brushes must be released from their respective drive motors. After installing the new brush box, the shafts of the new roller brushes must be connected to the drive motors again.
- the invention has for its object to provide a blister packaging machine of the type mentioned, in which the brush box can be replaced in a simple manner and in which it is reliably prevented that particles from the brush box can penetrate into the drive box.
- the object is achieved in a blister packaging machine of the type mentioned at the outset by providing a magnetic coupling by means of which a drive movement of the rotary drive can be transmitted to the roller brushes through a closed wall of the drive box.
- the drive movement of the rotary drive is thus transmitted to the roller brushes without contact.
- the consequence of this is that no openings need to be formed in the wall of the drive box for the passage of a drive shaft, so that the drive box is completely and smoothly separated from the brush box, so that no particles from the drive box into the brush box or from the brush box can penetrate into the drive box.
- the magnetic coupling transmits the drive movement from the drive box to the brush box without contact, it is not necessary to specifically remove mechanical connections between the rotary drive and the roller brushes when replacing the brush box. In this way, the brush box can be replaced quickly and easily with another brush box.
- the rotary drive comprises a large number of drive motors and that each roller brush is assigned its own drive motor.
- Each drive motor is connected to the associated roller brush by means of a structure called a magnetic coupling.
- the magnetic coupling preferably comprises a 1st magnet attached to the drive motor or its output shaft, which is arranged inside the drive box and close to the wall thereof, and a 2nd magnet connected to a shaft of the associated roller brush.
- the second magnet is located on the outside of the drive box near its wall and opposite the first magnet.
- the wall of the drive box should be as thin as possible. Since this is generally not possible for reasons of stability, a thicker design of the wall of the drive box can provide that the 1st magnet is arranged in a recess in the wall of the drive box. In this area, the bottom of the recess forms the dividing wall of the drive box and the separation from the second magnet arranged on the opposite side of the bottom.
- the second magnet can be firmly mounted on the shaft of the associated brush roller and must then be replaced together with the brush box when changing the format. Since magnets are relatively expensive, it is provided in a preferred embodiment of the invention that the second magnet is detachably connected to the shaft of the roller brush. '' When the brush box is replaced, the connection between the shafts of the roller brushes and the second magnet is also released, so that the second magnet can be used for different brush boxes.
- the second magnets are rotatably mounted and held outside the brush box.
- This can be achieved, for example, by arranging a bearing wall between the drive box and the brush box, in which the second magnet is rotatably mounted.
- the bearing wall is on the side opposite the first magnet back of the magnet 2.
- angeord ⁇ net and has a through hole into which a projection of the second magnet or an attached bearing sleeve is rotatably inserted.
- the shaft of the associated roller brush can be in with a coupling which is formed on the side of the bearing wall on the bearing sleeve facing away from the second magnet Side of the bearing wall is formed on the bearing sleeve in and out of engagement.
- the shafts of the roller brushes are released from engagement with the bearing sleeve of the second magnet, without the need for tools.
- the shafts of the new roller brushes are brought into engagement with the bearing sleeves of the second magnets by insertion, so that the roller brushes are coupled to the associated drives via the magnetic coupling.
- the bearing wall can be exchanged with the second magnets held in it, so that the smooth outside of the drive box can be easily cleaned when the format is changed.
- the shafts of the roller brushes are each formed as a pull-out thru-axle. This has the advantage that individual roller brushes of a brush box can be replaced in a simple manner by pulling out the shaft mounted in opposite side walls of the brush box, removing the roller brush and then placing a new roller brush on the shaft.
- the drive motors can be controlled independently of one another and their speed can be varied. When a new product is fed onto the top of the brush box, it initially takes a certain time until the product, for example the tablets, has spread over the entire brush box due to the rotation of the roller brushes. In order to accelerate the distribution of the tablets in the brush box after a format change, it can be provided that the drive motors can also be reversed in their direction of rotation, which enables a targeted transport of tablets is possible within the brush box by appropriate control of the drive motors.
- a sensor system can be assigned to the brush box, which queries the product filling level of the brush box.
- the sensors can be capacitive or mechanical, but it is also possible to use light barriers.
- the drive of a feed device for example a vibrating trough, can be controlled with which the products are fed to the brush box.
- a simple removal and installation of the brush box in precise positioning relative to the drive box and the second magnet can be achieved if the brush box is mounted on the drive box via pivotable brackets. After the brackets are pivoted from an operating position of the brush box into a changing position, the brush box can be removed from the brackets in a simple manner in order to exchange it for another brush box.
- a suction device for dust extraction can be assigned to the brush box.
