Definitions

  • the invention relates to a clamping and lifting mechanism for lifting a bundle of envelopes or a similar asymmetrically compressible bundle of stationery, whereby the clamping and lifting mechanism comprises two movable plates, between which the bundle to be lifted is placed, in order to move the parts of the clamping and lifting mechanism towards and away from each other, and devices for releasing the bundle from the clamping and lifting mechanism.
  • the clamping and lifting mechanism according to the invention is characterized in that the mechanism has clamping means, facing each other and which can be brought closer to and farther from each other and fitted to clamp the bundle from both side portions, further comprising pushing means by means of which the bundle can be pressed down, while releasing the it from the space between the plates.
  • the advantage of the clamping and lifting mechanism according to the invention is that the bundle to be packed can be lifted into a set up packing box and the bundle released from the clamping and lifting mechanism inside the box regardless of the bundle being at the moment of release in clamped state.
  • a bundle to be packed can be formed of envelopes, all of which are in same direction and the closing flap of which forms a noticeable addition of thickness on one edge of the bundle.
  • the clamping and lifting mechanism according to the invention the bundle remains without bending during lifting regardless of asymmetric clamping.
  • Figure 1 shows a the clamping and lifting mechanism, comprising two plates 1, which can be moved closer to or farther from each other.
  • conveying mechanism there is a guide bar 7, which is moved sideways on rolls.
  • the rolls are fixed in balk 6 and in balk 6 there is also a motion-making turning device conveyor of screw screw/nut.
  • the bundle 9 of stationery is formed between plates 1 for convey and lifting.
  • the clamping and lifting mechanism has also clamping means 2 clamping bundle 9 from the long side.
  • the mechanism moving them is not shown, but their moving closer to or farther from each other and stopping them at a regulated clamping force can be, for instance, done by means of a pneumatic cylinder.
  • the task of these clamps 2 is to avoid bending of bundle during lifting. Clamps 2 are most suitably placed to clamp the bundle from the upper bundle edge, whereby clamps 2 hardly disturb the bundle let-down into a packing box.
  • bracket thickness can be even dimensioned smaller as 2 mm and at least to a thickness under 4 mm.
  • Pushing means 3 in the clamping and lifting mechanism which are pressing the bundle 9 downward from the ends, are regulated to press the bundle from both ends so close to parts I that the bundle remains in the box, when parts 1 and the structure of clamping and lifting mechanism are lifted up.
  • Figure 4 shows a case part 11 of the clamping and lifting mechanism, that is placed above the bundle.
  • Case portion 11 includes a sufficient number of sliding walls, in order to make the case portion airtight enough as to its structure.
  • Case portion 11 has a tubing connection 10 to convey negative pressure to bundle upper side, whereby the negative pressure supports bundle 9 during lifting. The supporting impact is brought about by means of negative pressure to bundle 9, even if there were air leakage through bundle and structures.
  • clamping and pushing means 2 and 3 are in no way restricted to presented shapes but many variations are possible.
