Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging machine according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a packaging machine is for example from the DE 2 123 133 known. It has a frame, the two parallel Frame parts arranged in the longitudinal direction relative to one another having. At one end of the two frame parts are respectively Sprockets provided over the two transport chains in shape run by endless chains.
  • the individual links of the Transport chains are equipped with brackets which are a packaging material web how to hold a foil by the edges. When the chain links engage the sprockets, open the brackets, so that the packaging material web is inserted into the parentheses. If the chain links get rid of the sprockets, the brackets close and the packaging material web is between the transport chains held in a stretched state.
  • the sprockets are each stored on an axis flying.
  • a film guide drum for the packaging material web freely rotatably mounted about an axis.
  • further sprockets are provided, which serve by intervening in the transport chains to open the clips again so that the packaging material web released from the brackets.
  • Workstations arranged. In the transport of Packaging material web through the workstations is one high accuracy of feeds of both chains required to in successive operations as low as possible feed tolerances to reach. Higher tolerances require more Packaging material and cause additional costs.
  • the transport chains However, they have a limited strength and are stretched elastically under load like a spring.
  • FIG. 5 There are at the inlet the transport path shown three lines a-a, b-b and c-c. each the lines interpose an imaginary connecting line two mutually corresponding chain links.
  • the line a-a represents the ideal state in which the imaginary Connecting line runs parallel to the axis 14 at the outlet, i.e. There is no offset on the transport route the two transport chains 5 and 6.
  • the lines b-b and c-c show the possible range of variation of the distortion of the material web 7.
  • the line b-b shows the case where the chain 5 opposite the chain 6 in the transporting direction A, while the line c-c shows the case where the chain 5 faces the chain 6 lags.
  • first engagement element with the second engagement element is coupled so that both engagement elements are synchronized with each other in an angle
  • Enema on the entry side make sure that the transport routes the two means of transport are the same length. Possible Tolerances due to uneven stretching of the means of transport due to high tensile loads can be compensated become. Consequently, the packaging machine can with greater length than previously designed without undue Large tolerances in the transport routes of the two means of transport to obtain.
  • the transport device is in two places driven by two drive devices, thereby initiating the load on the means of transport at several Points can be made so that it reduces per discharge point is.
  • the advantage is achieved that it thereby it is possible to use smaller drive devices.
  • the drive devices are advantageously controlled by a control device, so that they are synchronized with each other. Thereby can realize an angle-synchronous rotation of the drive shafts are, i. it will become so-called electronic Realized waves, where a wave acts as a "master”, and the other as a “slave”, depending on the master wave is controlled.
  • a packaging machine according to FIG A first embodiment, a frame 1, the two parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction arranged frame parts contains, of which only the frame part 1a in Fig. 1 to see is.
  • the packaging machine transports a packaging material web 7 from an inlet 16 at an inlet side to a spout 17 on an exit side in the transport direction A.
  • the frame parts are made of pairs of support legs 18, 19 and 20 worn.
  • Workstations 2, 3 and 4 arranged at which the packaging material web is processed.
  • the transport of the packaging material web 7 happens via transport chains 5 and 6 in Shape of endless chains.
  • the first frame part is at the outlet 17 a first sprocket 8 and the inlet 16 a first engagement element 10, which also designed as a sprocket is assigned.
  • the two transport chains 5 and 6 each run over the two sprockets 8, 9 at the outlet and via the two engagement elements 10, 11 at the inlet 16.
  • Each transport chain 5, 6 consists of a plurality of chain links, only a few of which are indicated in FIG. 2 by the reference numeral 21 are shown schematically.
  • the individual chain links 21 are equipped with brackets, not shown here, the packaging material web 7, e.g. a plastic film, hold at their longitudinal edges. If the chain links 21 with the engagement elements 10, 11 at the inlet 16 into engagement enter, open the brackets, so that the packaging material web 7 can enter the brackets. If the Chain links 21 are released from the engagement elements 10, 11, close the brackets and the packaging material web is held between the transport chains in a stretched state. Conversely, the brackets open at the sprockets 8 and 9 at the outlet 17. This is the packaging material web 7 of the brackets again and can over the outlet 17 leave the packaging machine while the transport chains 5, 6 are deflected over the sprockets by 180 ° and again running back.
  • the sprockets 8, 9 are on a common drive shaft 14 rotatably mounted.
  • the drive shaft 14 is provided with a drive device 15 coupled in the form of an electric motor.
  • the shaft is dimensioned so that it is as torsionally stiff as possible is, i. that the drive shaft when driving the Transport chains 5, 6 is not twisted as possible to prevent that the further away from the drive device 14 arranged and driven by the sprocket 8 transport chain 5 with respect to the closer to the drive device 14th arranged and driven by the sprocket 9 transport chain 6 lags.
  • the drive device 14 rotates the sprockets 8, 9 in the counterclockwise direction in Fig. 2, so that the Packaging material web 7 transported in the transport direction A. becomes.
  • the transport chains have a limited strength, they are stretched elastically under load like a spring, especially for longer systems from about 10m transport length occurs. To prevent this, those are at the inlet 16 provided engagement elements 10, 11 in the form of other sprockets via a torsionally rigid shaft 12 rotatably with each other connected, so that the two engagement elements 10 and 11th inevitably run in sync with each other.
  • FIG. 3 an alternative embodiment is shown.
  • the structure of the packaging machine shown there is in principle equal to that of the packaging machine shown in Figs. 1 and 2, so that on a description of the matching Components omitted, or on the previous Description is referenced.
  • the alternative embodiment differs from the Construction of Fig. 1, characterized in that at the inlet as in the conventional packaging machines free on axles (not shown) mounted sprockets are provided. additionally but is between the inlet and the outlet another torsionally rigid shaft 12 is provided, on which the two engagement elements 10, 11 rotatably secured in the form of sprockets are.
  • the shaft 12 with another drive device 13 coupled in the form of an electric motor.
  • the two drive devices 13 and 15 are about synchronizes a control, not shown, so that they turn angular synchronously with the same speed.
  • the packaging machine can be designed longer, where the driven shaft 12 at a distance of about 10m from the first driven shaft 14 is arranged, since, as already mentioned above, the tolerance of the transport routes of the two Transport chains due to their elastic elongation an increased load from about 10m would be unduly large.
  • Fig. 4 is another alternative embodiment shown.
  • the structure of the packaging machine shown there is in principle equal to that of the packaging machine shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, so that on a description of the matching Components omitted, or on the previous description is referenced.
  • the alternative embodiment differs from the Construction of Fig. 1, characterized in that at the inlet 16 as in the conventional packaging machines free on axles (not shown) mounted sprockets 30, 31 are provided. additionally is however at the level of the inlet below the sprockets 30, 31, the torsionally rigid shaft 12 is provided on the the two engagement elements 10, 11 are rotationally fixed.
  • the transport chains 5, 6 are on the below the Packaging material web 7 arranged return side via pulleys 22, 23 about 90 ° from the horizontal down deflected in the vertical in Fig. 4, run over the engagement elements 10, 11, again rising 180 ° be deflected so that they are the packaging material web 7 approach again, and eventually over the sprockets 30, 31 again deflected by approximately 90 ° in the horizontal.
  • the torsion-resistant shaft 14 is at the outlet 17 arranged offset downwards, with the transport chains 5, 6 via sprockets 28, 29 and reversing rollers 26, 27 accordingly be redirected.
  • the drive device 15 unlike the first embodiment not directly coupled to the shaft 14. Rather, on the shaft 14 a another gear 32 rotatably attached, with a toothed belt 24 is engaged.
  • the timing belt 24 is also with a drive pinion 25 in engagement, which via a not shown Drive shaft coupled to the drive device 15 is.
  • the drive device is arranged so that they located directly below the shaft 14. This allows the drive device space-saving housed within the frame 1 become and laterally in the width direction not outside.
  • each of the sprockets 8 to 11 via its own drive device drive and each drive device over to synchronize a control angle synchronously.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention provides to use a toothed belt instead of the transport chain.
