Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for the application of food bags on flower bouquets, whether they are packed or not and are ready for sale, in short called food bag applicator.
  • the food bags should give the flower bouquets, especially the packed ones a professional look and the flower bouquets must be provided with a food bag when packed.
  • the wrapping device for wrapping the subject, such as a flower bouquet packed or not by the stem parts of it with a material strip provided with an adhesive, such as transparent adhesive tape.
  • the wrapping device consists of a coil for feeding the material strip, in which the coil is mounted on a swivelling arm and consists of a driving mechanism for at least one wrap around the subject of the mentioned rotating arm or swivelling arm.
  • a supporting surface for, in this case supporting of the flower bouquet with vertical and horizontal fixation means.
  • the packing device moves along with the conveyor belt, on which the flower bouquets are laid at equal mutual distance to achieve a flowing process.
  • the aforementioned device is only suitable to keep the stems of, for example, flower bouquets together with adhesive tape, meaning the device has the disadvantage or the shortcoming that when wrapping the stems of the flower bouquets, a food bag can not be added at the same time, because this demands a number of inventive handlings.
  • a device for applying a food bag onto packed flower bouquets which are ready for sale is further developed in such a way, characterized in that the mentioned device consists of a unit for handling the food bags and a unit for handling the flower bouquets, packed or not, in which at the position where the food bag is applied on the flower bouquets, packed or not, both units are adapted to each other optimally as regards timing by means of electronic or software control.
  • the aim of the invention is achieved in such a way, that the application of a tape or elastic together with the food bag around the stems of the flower bouquets packed or not is achieved with two electronic units which are adapted to each other, being a unit for feeding the food bags and a unit for feeding the flower bouquets.
  • the device according to the invention is further developed in such a way, characterized in that the unit for handling the food bags is constructed of subunits for successively executing specific handlings, with regard to handling the food bag, being for:
  • the advantage is a complete automatized feed of food bags from a strand, in which the food bags are connected to each other by means of a perforated plastic layer.
  • the device according to the invention is further developed in such a way, characterized in that the subunit for executing the specific handlings of feeding and separation of the food bags consists of two sets of rotating rolls, with a different speed, placed at a mutual distance with a length of the food bag, between which the strand of food bags with matching perforation are separated from each other, after which the single food bag falls into a collecting funnel of the mentioned subunit for positioning by means of the force of gravity.
  • the advantage is, that the food bags can be fed one by one to the subunit for moving the food bags below and near the stems of the flower bouquets.
  • the device according to the invention is further developed in such a way, characterized in that the mentioned subunit consists of a first swivelling arm for moving the mentioned picked up food bag at the same time rotates at an angle ⁇ around the horizontal axis parallel to the mentioned conveyor belt and which first swivelling arm is provided with a suction cup at the end for holding the food bag.
  • the advantage is, that the food bags are presented one by one at the correct position below and near the stems of the flowers to be fastened with tape or elastic to the stems of the flower bouquets.
  • the device according to the invention is further developed in such a way, characterized in that the mentioned subunit for wrapping the stems of the flower bouquet with the food bag with adhesive tape or elastic at the same time consists of an L-shaped horizontal set up second axis of rotation perpendicular to the mentioned conveyor belt with the feed of the flower bouquets, with a roll of single sided adhesive tape or elastic at the end, which is provided with a tensioning mechanism for wrapping and wraps around at least one time.
  • the advantage is, that the food bags are included in one handling when applying adhesive tape or elastic around the stems of flower bouquets, packed or not.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic side view of the unit 1 for handling the fed food bags 3 in strands and the unit 2 for handling the flower bouquets, packed or not, or other bundle shaped products 4, which are adapted to each other by means of electronic or software control (not indicated) according to a preferred embodiment of the invention.
  • the strand of food bags are in a supply box 5.
  • the first swivelling arm 6 is still in its horizontal position and must move (see figure 2) over an angle ⁇ around a horizontal axis 9 of approximately 120 degrees towards the subunit positioning 7 (see also the arrow direction A), for which an electromotor or stepping motor 8 (M) is placed.
  • the subunit for feeding and separating 10 consists of two rolls 12 and 13, which rotate with different speeds, so that the food bags 3 are torn apart and then fall separately into the mentioned funnel 11.
  • the conveyor belt 14 of unit 2 feeds the flower bouquets 4 perpendicular onto the plane of scheme in figure 3 towards the observer or away from it.
  • Figures 1 to 4 also show the subunit for the wrapping together with adhesive tape or elastic 15.
  • the mentioned subunit 15 consists of a second swivelling arm 16 (L-shaped) with also a horizontal axis 17 and at the end of the second swivelling arm 16 a roll 18 with single-sided adhesive tape or elastic 20 for connecting the food bag 3 with the stems of the flower bouquet 4 (see figure 3) by wrapping around at least once.
  • the end of the first swivelling arm 6 contains a suction cup 19.
  • the flower bouquet 4 goes perpendicular via the conveyor belt 14 to the observer or away from it (for that reason indicated in dotted lines) and the first swivelling arm 6 again rotates around the axis 9 at an angle ⁇ to the subunit for positioning 7 and the cycle begins all over for the next flower bouquet 4.
