Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging machine and a method for closing containers.
  • tray sealing machines known in which products are packed in prefabricated cup-shaped containers and sealed with a film.
  • a packaging machine in which the packaging containers are conveyed from a filling station by means of circulating carriers on a plate in a sealing station.
  • the disadvantage is that the placement of the container is very inaccurate and takes a lot of time, since the acceleration must remain low and the driver from the area of the sealing station must go back again.
  • the sealing station is arranged in the main transport path of the container between a feed device and a discharge device and a certain amount of containers is respectively introduced into the sealing station, then sealed there and transported to the discharge device after sealing. Only then can the next containers be transported to the sealing station, so that the process in the sealing station takes a relatively long time, since not only the time of sealing, but also the transport time is incurred. During this time, the subsequent containers to be sealed must wait until the sealing station becomes free.
  • the applicant is also known an improved packaging machine, in which two receiving plates are provided for receiving the container in the sealing station. Of the one receiving plate in a position which is located in the main transport path of the container from the feed conveyor to the discharge device, sealed containers are removed and the receiving plate is equipped with containers to be sealed, while on the other receiving plate in a second position adjacent to the main transport path, containers are sealed in a sealing tool with the top film. This leads to an increase in the useful life of the Sealing tool and consequently the operating speed of the packaging machine can be increased.
  • the two receiving plates are arranged on a turntable and moving the receiving plates in the other position takes place via a rotation of the turntable about a vertical axis.
  • relatively large distances between the two positions of the receiving plates must be covered during the rotational movement and there are accelerations, which contain both rotational components and translation components, which limits the possible transport speed.
  • the packaging machine according to the invention has the advantage that the transport of the container to the sealing tool and again out of the sealing tool out can be done very quickly and that for evacuating, gassing and sealing the container a maximum process time is available because the closure must be open only a short time.
  • Another advantage of the present invention is that the packaging machine is very easy to switch to different container sizes and shapes and in particular with only different container height no adjustments are necessary.
  • the packaging machine according to the invention can be realized significantly more cost-effective due to the applied linear movement of the plates into the closing device or out of this packaging machines, which use rotational movements.
  • the packaging machine can be designed to save space perpendicular to the main transport path.
  • the packaging machine of this embodiment includes a first feed conveyor 1, on which containers 5 to be closed are transported in the direction of a closing station 20, a second feed conveyor 2, which is arranged in the entry area of the closing station 20 and on which Containers 5 and a discharge conveyor 11 on which the containers 5 "are transported after their processing in the closing station 20.
  • the closing station 20 is designed such that a group of containers 5 can be processed simultaneously.
  • the containers move along a main transport path in a main transport direction 8, which is indicated by an arrow in FIG. 2 and extends from left to right.
  • the feed conveyors 1, 2 each run continuously and the grouping of the containers in the closing station 20 via stops 6, which are arranged above the second feed conveyor 2.
  • the stoppers 6 are formed so as to be individually movable from a raised position in which the containers 5 can be transported on the second feed conveyor 2 below them to a lowered position in which they rest on the second feed conveyor 2 in the main transport direction 8 transported container 5 stop while the second feed conveyor 2 continues to move under them. Further, the stoppers 6 are formed such that they can be reciprocated in the main transporting direction 8 by a control device (not shown) (29).
  • the receiving plate 3 In the main transport path behind the second feed conveyor 2 is located in the closing station 20 a place for a receiving plate 3, which is referred to as the first position 21.
  • the receiving plate 3 is arranged in the first position 21 such that the stopped by the stoppers 6 on the second feed conveyor 2 container 5 can be pushed by a movement of the lowered stopper 6 in the main transport direction 8 on the receiving plate 3.
  • recesses 10 are provided, in which the pushed over the receiving plate 3 container 5 can be lowered by means of a provided under the receiving plate 3 lifting device 9.
  • the lowered container 5 are then held with the upper container edge 5e of the receiving plate 3.
  • sealed containers 5 In the first position 21, sealed containers 5 "can be lifted in the recesses 10 of the receiving plate 3 by means of the lifting device 9 so that the container bottoms 5a are aligned with the top 3a of the receiving plate 3 located in the first position 21.
  • a slide 7 is also provided comprising tundishes 7a projecting downwardly and adapted to engage between the sealed containers 5 "in a first position as shown in FIG. By moving the slider 7 in the direction of the main transporting direction 8 to a second position (right end of the arrow 30 in FIG. 2), the sealed containers 5 "are shifted onto the discharge conveyor 11.
  • the closing station 20 will be described in more detail below.
  • Fig. 4 is located in the closing station 20 in a place which is referred to as the second position 22, a second receiving plate 3 'with recesses 10', which is identical to the receiving plate 3 is formed.
  • the second position 22 is arranged laterally of the main transport path and above the first position 21.
  • the receiving plate 3 ' is located between an upper part 23 and a lower part 24 of a closing device 25.
  • the lower part 24 is movable upwards by means of a lifting device 26, so that the lower part 24 with the upper part 23 and the receiving plate 3' pressed therebetween closed chamber forms.
  • closing means 25 devices are provided, not shown in the drawing, which allow evacuation and introduction of gas, such as e.g. Inert gas, allow.
  • a top film 27 is arranged in the region of the closing device 25 in such a way that a section 27a of the top film 27 is enclosed between the top part 23 and the receiving plate 3 'when closing the closing device 25, so that this section on the upper container edges 5e in the recesses 10 'of the receiving plate 3' held containers 5 'rests.
  • the upper side of the receiving plate 3 'and the upper part 23 are designed such that they form a sealing and cutting tool, which welds the upper foil 27 onto the upper container edges 5e and thereby cuts free the welded region from the upper foil 27.
  • the closing device 25 is furthermore designed such that it opens again after sealing the container 5 'and a next section of the upper film is moved into the closing device 25.
  • irregularly spaced containers 5 are transported in the direction of the second feed conveyor belt 2 on the first feed conveyor belt 1.
  • the containers 5 are already filled with products to be packaged.
  • the filling can be done on the first feed conveyor 1 or even before this.
  • the containers 5 are transferred to the second feed conveyor 2.
  • the first container 5b is transported on the second feed conveyor 2 in the main transporting direction 8 until it abuts against the first stopper 6b, which prevents it from advancing.
  • the second feed conveyor 2 continues to move under the held first container 5b.
  • next stopper 6c moves down and the next container 5c is from the first feed conveyor belt 1 coming on the second feed conveyor belt 2 in the main transporting direction 8 moves until it abuts the stopper 6c. Thereafter, the following stopper is moved down and the process repeats until a preset number of containers 5 are grouped. About the distance of the stoppers from each other, the distance of the container 5 is set a group.
  • the stoppers 6 are moved in the main transporting direction 8 (arrow 29 to the right) and the grouped containers 5 are moved via a receiving plate 3 located in the position 21.
  • sealed containers 5 "located on the receiving plate 3 are moved by the slider 7 onto the discharge conveyor belt 11.
  • the grouped containers 5, which have been moved over the receiving plate 3, are lowered by the lifting device 9 into the recesses 10 of the receiving plate 3 or simply into the recesses 10 are dropped and then held therein by the upper edge 5e of the containers 5.
  • the sealed containers 5 "are moved from the slider to the discharge conveyor 11 and the grouped containers 5 are moved into the recesses 10 of the receiving plate 3 are moved are on the receiving plate 3 'located container 5' sealed in the closing device 25.
  • the closing device 25 is opened by lowering the lower part 24 with the lifting device 26 becomes. Subsequently, as shown in Fig. 4, the receiving plate 3 'is linearly moved in the vertical direction from the second position 22, which is arranged laterally of the main transport path and higher than the first position 21, to the height of the first position 21 in a first intermediate position 18 lowered. At the same time, the other receiving plate 3 is moved linearly in the vertical direction from the first position 21 to a second intermediate position 19.
  • the receiving plate 3 'containing sealed containers 5 "is linearly moved in the horizontal direction from the first intermediate position 18 to the first position 21.
  • the receiving plate 3 with the unsealed containers 5 from the second intermediate position 19 becomes linear in FIG moved horizontally in the second position 22 in the closing device 25 so that the receiving plates 3, 3 'have reversed their position.
  • the closing device 25 is closed and the container 5 'on the receiving plate 3 therein are sealed with the top film 27 and the closing device then opens again.
  • the sealed containers 5 "are raised in the receiving plate 3 ' in the first position 21 with the lifting device 9 and moved with the slider 7 on the discharge conveyor 11, while on the second feed conveyor 2 in the meantime grouped container 5 with the stoppers 6 over the receiving plate 3 'to be moved and then lowered with the lifting device 9 in the recesses 10' of the receiving plate 3 'or dropped into this.
  • the receiving plate 3' is moved from the first position 21 via the second intermediate position 19 into the second position 22 and at the same time the other receiving plate 3 moved from the second position 22 via the first intermediate position 18 in the first position 21. Subsequently, the described processes are repeated, so that consecutively further containers 5 are sealed.
  • the packaging machine can also be realized in such a way that the corresponding receiving plates 3, 3 'are moved from the first position 21 via the first intermediate position 18 into the second position 22 and from the second position 22 via the second intermediate position 19 into the first position 21, ie opposite to the arrow direction shown in Fig. 4.
  • the operating speed of the packaging machine can be increased since the closing device 25 only has to be opened briefly for repositioning the receiving plates 3, 3 ' and the sealing process and a large part of the container transport are carried out at the same time, so that occurring dead times of individual components of the packaging machine can be significantly reduced.
  • the grouping of the containers in the described embodiment takes place in a very special, particularly advantageous manner
  • the grouping can also be realized in another way, such as e.g. via an intermittently operating feed device and / or via a gripper which grips the group for transport in a predetermined manner.
