Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Entnehmen, Transportieren, Aufrichten und Einsetzen von Faltschachteln aus einem die flach zusammengelegten Faltschachteln enthaltenden Magazin in einen Förderer mit jeweils eine vollständig aufgerichtete Faltschachtel aufnehmenden Förderzellen, bestehend aus einem um eine Sonnenachse drehbaren und antreibbaren Planetenträger, einem Planetenteil, das um eine zur Sonnenachse exzentrische und mit ihr parallele Planetenachse drehbar am Planetenträger gelagert ist und ein Greiforgan mit einem die Faltschachtel haltenden Greiferkopf sowie ein mit der Planetenachse koaxiales Planetenrad trägt, das mit einem mit der Sonnenachse koaxialen, feststehenden Sonnenrad gekoppelt ist, wobei das Planetenrad und das Sonnenrad ein Getriebe bilden, welches beim Drehen des Planetenträgers dem Planetenteil eine Drehbewegung relativ zum Planetenträger überlagert, so dass der Greiferkopf auf einer auf die Sonnenachse zentrierten, in sich geschlossenen Hypozykloidenbahn mit mehreren Umkehrpunkten umläuft, und aus einem am Planetenteil drehbar gelagerten, an der Faltschachtel mit einem Anschlagteil zur Anlage kommenden Aufrichtorgan sowie einer Antriebseinrichtung für das Aufrichtorgan, die dem Aufrichtorgan um seine zur Planetenachse parallele Drehachse eine Drehbewegung relativ zum Greiforgan erteilt.The invention relates to a device for removing, transporting, erecting and inserting folding cartons from a magazine containing the flat folded cartons in a conveyor, each with a fully erected carton receiving conveyor cells, consisting of a rotatable about a sun axis and driven planet carrier, a planetary part, the about a sun axis eccentric and parallel to it planetary axis rotatably mounted on the planet carrier and a gripping member with a carton holding the gripper head and a planetary axis with the coaxial planet carrier, which is coupled to a coaxial with the sun axis, fixed sun gear, wherein the planet and the sun gear form a gear which, when the planet carrier rotates, superimposes a rotational movement relative to the planet carrier on the planetary part, so that the gripper head is centered on the sun's axis and closed in itself Cycloidenbahn rotates with several reversal points, and from a rotatably mounted on the planet part, on the carton with a Aufrichtorgan coming to rest a stop member and a drive device for the Aufrichtorgan, which grants the Aufrichtorgan about its axis of rotation parallel to the axis of the planetary rotation relative to the gripping member.

Eine derartige Vorrichtung ist aus der EP 0 580 958 B1 bekannt, die sich in der Praxis grundsätzlich bewährt hat, jedoch in dem Sinne einen hohen Aufwand erfordert, dass die Drehbewegung des Aufrichtorgans über ein eigenes Zahnradgetriebe erfolgt und Hebel in mechanischen Kurven kämmen, die allgemein ausgelegt sein müssen, und zum Beispiel zum Verpacken von Flaschen in Faltschachteln speziell anzupassen sind.Such a device is known from EP 0 580 958 B1 known, which has proven itself in practice in principle, but in the sense requires a lot of effort, that the rotational movement of the Aufrichtorgans via its own gear transmission and combing levers in mechanical curves, which must be generally designed, and for example for packaging bottles in folding cartons are specially adapted.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art so auszubilden, dass Faltschachteln unterschiedlicher Qualität und Formate mit hoher Genauigkeit verarbeitet werden können.The invention is therefore based on the object, a device of the type mentioned in such a way that cartons of different quality and formats can be processed with high accuracy.

Diese Aufgabe wird nach der Erfindung bei einer Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art dadurch gelöst, dass an dem Planetenrad und dem Sonnenrad je eine Zahnriemenverzahnung ausgebildet ist, die über einen Zahnriemen verbunden ein erstes Zahnriemengetriebe bilden, und dass die Antriebseinrichtung für das Aufrichtorgan eine autonome Antriebseinheit mit einer Antriebswelle umfasst, die mit einem dem Aufrichtorgan zugeordneten Organ-Sonnenrad in antriebsschlüssiger Verbindung steht.This object is achieved according to the invention in a device of the type mentioned in that on the planet gear and the sun gear each toothed belt toothing is formed connected via a toothed belt forming a first toothed belt transmission, and that the drive means for the erector an autonomous drive unit with a drive shaft which is connected to a Aufrichtorgan associated organ sun gear in a drive connection.

Daraus ergibt sich der Vorteil einer Reduzierung der Teilevielfalt durch Wegfall der speziell angepassten Kurven und insbesondere eine an das Format der Faltschachtel angepasste Ansteuerung des Aufrichtorgans in weiten Grenzen unabhängig von der Lage des Greiforgans. Der Beginn des Öffnungsvorgangs kann in einem vorgegebenen Zeitfenster frei gewählt werden und auch der Überbrechwinkel beim Öffnen der Faltschachtel kann frei gewählt werden, um unterschiedlichen Qualitäten der Faltschachteln und deren Format gerecht werden zu können.This results in the advantage of reducing the variety of parts by eliminating the specially adapted curves and in particular adapted to the format of the carton control of Aufrichtorgans within wide limits regardless of the position of the gripping member. The beginning of the Opening process can be freely selected in a given time window and also the Überbrechwinkel when opening the carton can be chosen freely to meet different qualities of the cartons and their format can.

Die weitgehend freie Verstellung des Aufrichtorgans wird dabei erreicht, indem der Drehachse des Aufrichtorgans ein eine Zahnriemenverzahnung aufweisendes Organ-Planetenrad zugeordnet ist, das über einen Zahnriemen mit dem gleichfalls eine Zahnriemenverzahnung aufweisenden Organ-Sonnenrad verbunden ist.The largely free adjustment of Aufrichtorgans is achieved by the rotational axis of the Aufrichtorgans a toothed belt toothing exhibiting organ planetary gear is associated, which is connected via a toothed belt with the toothed belt toothing also having a sun gear.

Der Erhöhung der Leistungsfähigkeit der Vorrichtung dient, dass das Greiforgan mehrfach vorgesehen ist und deren Zahnriemenverzahnungen axial gestaffelt angeordnet sind und dass das Aufrichtorgan mehrfach vorgesehen ist und deren Zahnriemenverzahnungen axial gestaffelt angeordnet sind.The purpose of increasing the efficiency of the device is that the gripping member is provided several times and whose toothed belt toothings are arranged axially staggered and that the Aufrichtorgan is provided multiple times and the toothed belt toothings are arranged axially staggered.

Einer räumlichen Entzerrung der Baugruppen dient, dass das Organ-Sonnenrad über eine Zahnriemenverbindung mit einer koaxial zur Sonnenachse angeordneten Hohlwelle verbunden ist, die mit der Antriebswelle gekoppelt ist, und dass die Antriebswelle über eine Zahnriemenverbindung mit der Hohlwelle gekoppelt ist und die autonome Antriebseinheit über ein zweites Zahnriemengetriebe mit dem Aufrichtorgan verbunden ist, da so über die Zahnriemen auch mit Abstand angeordnete Getriebeglieder gekoppelt werden können.A spatial equalization of the assemblies serves that the organ sun gear is connected via a toothed belt connection with a hollow shaft arranged coaxially with the sun shaft, which is coupled to the drive shaft, and that the drive shaft is coupled via a toothed belt connection with the hollow shaft and the autonomous drive unit via a second toothed belt transmission is connected to the Aufrichtorgan, as so can be coupled via the timing belt with spaced gear members.
