  • a suitable pusher, or punch forces the blank sheet into the space being defined by these walls, thus causing the flaps and tabs thereof - which are defined by said creasing lines - to fold and making, at least partially, the tray.
  • a second moving member takes up the tray, which has been formed by means of the above-mentioned forming walls and punch thereof, and brings it to a storage station, where said tray can be taken up for further use, or where forming auxiliary means, if provided, provide to, for example, close the tray with glue or staples, or however finishing it, depending on what has been provided during the design step.
  • GB 2,023,548 issued to NUTRO, describes a similar apparatus, wherein a vertically developed store of stacked blank sheets is placed on the side of an "drawing" area of blank sheets, which consists of a plurality of walls defining a forming frame for a tray.

  • the blank sheet which is initially rested on the walls constituting the forming frame, is forcedly pushed into the latter by a suitable punch, such as to provide on the blank sheet, by plastic (i.e. permanent) deformation, the folds required for obtaining the tray.
  • An auxiliary apparatus provided with further moving means thereof, if provided, can be arranged downstream of the forming frame in order to take up the formed tray and place the latter in a special storage station.
  • CA 2,110,766 issued to Zinzius, describes an apparatus similar to that described in GB 2,023,548 , wherein the store for stacked blank sheets is arranged on a side of a tray-forming device, and wherein said device is of the type comprising a plurality of forming walls and a punch, or pusher, being suitable to force the blank sheet into said forming walls.

  • the possibility of moving said forming walls close to and away from each other allows the sheet being processed to enter from the store to the forming area, when these walls are away from each other, and the subsequent forming operation is allowed either by these walls moving close to each other about the blank sheet, or by means of the punch action when the forming walls have been moved again close to each other.

  • this first moving member which preferably comprises sheet-holding means by means of fluidic suction, is shaped such that the travel thereof is controlled by a suitable control logic and extends between a position coincident with the store bottom wall, i.e. that wall opposite said outlet section for blank sheets , and a position corresponding to the storage station for the tray being formed.
  • the apparatus As the travel of the first moving member can be changed in a controlled manner, the apparatus is provided with a considerable flexibility of use, and any further actuator for the blank sheets or formed tray is accordingly unnecessary.
  • the apparatus forming walls are synchronized by means of a suitable control logic, with the reciprocating translation of said first moving member, such that these walls are automatically opened relative to each other in order to allow this first moving member to enter the blank sheet store, and then re-closed to block the store outlet section while defining the tray forming area when the first forming member is going to forcedly push the blank sheet to be processed between these walls.

Furthermore, during the rectilinear travel thereof, the moving member 6 acts also as a pusher for forcedly inserting the blank sheet 9 within the forming walls 5a, 5b, 5c, after they have been re-closed by moving close to each other, such as to define said forming region for the blank sheet 9.
  • an individual moving member, 6 which acts both as a transportation element for the blank sheet 9, prior to forming, and for the edged tray, after forming, and as a pusher, or punch, for providing the tray, is found to be particularly advantageous since it allows simplifying the structure of the apparatus 1, as the number of actuators required for operation is reduced.

  • pneumatic means such as a hydraulic jack, or electric motors, such as direct current (DC) brushless motors, that are controlled by a suitable control logic (not shown) which allows the precise adjustment of the movement, and hence the travel, of this first moving member 6.
  • the shape of member 6 and the control logic thereof, as well as the optional provision of sensors suitable for detecting the size of the stack 4 or the distance between the member 6 and the last blank sheet 9 in the stack can allow the member 6 to reach the bottom (i.e. lower) wall of the store 2, such as to be capable of easily taking up and moving all the blank sheets 9 being in the stack 4 as the dimensions of the latter are changed.
  • the store 2 simply consists of a pallet 3 on which a plurality of blank sheets 9 are placed horizontal onto each other, such as to provide a stack 4 extending in the vertical direction.
  • the forming walls 5a, 5b, 5c placed in the apparatus 1 immediately above the outlet section of store 2, as stated above, can be translated in reciprocating manner in a horizontal direction, due to actuators and controllers (not shown), such as to be capable of clearing the outlet section of store 2 (see Fig. 1 ) or to be capable of defining, by blocking this outlet section, said forming area (see Fig. 2-5 ).
  • the movement of the forming walls 5a, 5b, 5c which may not be obviously necessarily rectilinear in a horizontal direction and is also a function of the geometry of the apparatus 1, can be preferably controlled in a synchronized manner with the translation of said first member 6 for moving the blank sheets 9.
  • the member 6 can rapidly enter the store 2, with the walls 5a, 5b, 5c being in the mutual opening position, and the blank sheet 9 can be as rapidly forced into the forming area, with the walls 5a, 5b, 5c in the position of moving close to each other.
  • These walls 5a, 5b, 5c which can be ideally arranged along the periphery of the tray to be formed, are suitably S-shaped, such as to have a vertical upper face that is arranged for centering the blank sheet 9 prior to forming, an inwardly inclined face that acts as the folding guide for the flaps and table of the blank sheet 9, and a last vertical lower face that finally defines the folding required to make the edges of the tray.
  • the number and arrangement of the forming walls 5a, 5b, 5c in the apparatus 1 are known to be given by the geometrical characteristics of the starting blank sheet and tray desired to be obtained.

  • the forming walls 5a, 5b, 5c which are for example also driven by brushless DC electric motors, can be translatably and rotatably controlled by suitable means (not shown) to move the blank sheet 9 being processed relative to said forming area, i.e. to center the sheet 9 relative to the configuration achieved by the walls 5a, 5b, 5c when the latter are arranged in their mutual tray-forming position.
