Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing packages from at least two part packs for each pack group of particular cuboid cigarette packs, wherein a one-piece blank is folded around the pack groups along fold lines such that mutually facing inner walls of the pack packs are folded in a V-shape between the pack groups according to the preamble of claim 1. Furthermore, the invention relates to a device for producing such packages, according to the preamble of claim 4.
  • Packages of the aforementioned type are used, for example, to accommodate groups of packages with multiple cigarette packs and are often referred to in practice as (double) cigarette rods.
  • the packaging is divisible, such that the two sub-packages each form independent units, with a group of packages consisting of several, for example, five packets of cigarettes.
  • the part packs can be connected to one another in the region of a perforating separating edge. When putting the packaging into use, the perforation of the separating edge can be severed by breaking the part packs.
  • Such packages are for example from the DE 42 00 921 known.
  • the invention has the object, further develop a device or a method of the type mentioned, in particular such that an unwanted division of the packaging in partial packages can be reliably avoided.
  • the device according to the invention has the features of claim 4.
  • the blank web is associated with a stop for a front edge of the blank in the transport direction.
  • a partial folding of the blank along the transverse fold lines results. In this way, the V-shaped folding of the inner walls can be easily formed.
  • drive means for example drive rollers or rollers, which convey the blank for damming in the transport direction.
  • the drive means are preferably arranged such that they end at a distance before the stop such that the blank can no longer be conveyed by the drive means after correct (V-shaped) folding and thus rests in the blank path as a folded blank.
  • the blank is preferably arranged such that the V-shaped folded inner walls are directed transversely to the plane of the blank web, whereas the rest of the blank is positioned substantially in the plane of the blank web.

  • the pack groups can be further transported in the package web, taking along the blank.
  • the blank is folded in a U-shape around the groups of cigarettes. This can preferably take place in that the packing groups are conveyed with the blank through an opening, with folding of the outer walls of the blank against the packing groups.

Selon cette invention, la section sensiblement plane (24) est transportée le long d'une voie à section (36) et est au moins partiellement retenue, lors du transport, de façon à plier en forme de V les parois internes (27) le long de lignes de pliage (46) transversales à la direction de transport. La présente invention concerne également un dispositif correspondant pour mettre en oeuvre ledit procédé.
