Abstract

The method involves punching lids (55) in a printed film strip (3) that is provided with print marks for positioning a depression and stacking the lids on top of each other for transport. A partial stamping takes place during idleness of the film strip when the lid or a label is punched. The strip is guided between two stamping plates of a stamping tool (23) and the stamping is realized in the film strip. The relative movement is performed between two stamping cycles of the stamping tool based on the strip. An independent claim is also included for a device for partial stamping of a lid or a label with a stamping tool.

Description

Gegenstand der Erfindung sind ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von partiell mit Prägungen versehenen und zusätzlich bedruckten aufsiegelbaren Verpackungsdeckeln oder Etiketten gemäss Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 und eine Vorrichtung zum partiellen Prägen von aus einem unbedruckten oder bedruckten Folienband ausgestanzten Verpackungsdeckeln oder Etiketten gemäss Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 6.The invention relates to a method for producing partially embossed and additionally printed sealable packaging lids or labels according to the preamble of patent claim 1 and to a device for partially embossing packaging lids or labels punched out of a blank or printed foil tape or label according to the preamble of patent claim 6.

Kleingebinde, insbesondere Halbkonserven für den direkten Verzehr aus dem Gebinde werden oft mit aufgesiegelten Deckeln verschlossen. Diese bestehen aus einer Aluminiumfolie oder einem Laminat aus verschiedenen Materialien und werden direkt auf den Rand des Gebindes aufgesiegelt. Die bedruckten und entsprechend der Kontur der Gebindeöffnung ausgestanzten Deckel werden für den Transport gestapelt. Die glatten Oberflächen solcher Deckel neigen dazu, beim Abstapeln vor dem Aufbringen auf ein Gebinde aneinander zu haften, so dass nicht gewährleistet ist, dass jedesmal nur ein einziger Deckel vom Stapel abgenommen und zum Gebinde geführt wird. Um das Abstapeln bzw. Vereinzeln einzelner Deckel sicherzustellen, ist es bekannt, eine Oberflächen-Prägung auf bzw. in das Deckelmaterial aufzubringen. Diese Prägung wirkt sich ungünstig auf die Bedruckung aus, da diese dadurch die Brillanz verliert und andererseits werden kleingedruckte Aufdrucke, z.B. das Verfalldatum, Strichcode oder Inhaltsangaben, schwer lesbar.
Es sind deshalb schon Verfahren bekannt, bei denen mindestens derjenige Bereich des Deckels nach dem Aufbringen einer das Abstapeln begünstigenden Prägung im Schriftbereich wieder plattgedrückt wird. Allerdings ist eine vollständige Rückführung der Prägungen in eine glatte Oberfläche nicht möglich.
Die gleichen Nachteile treten sowohl bei flachen und tiefgezogenen Verpackungsdeckeln als auch bei der Herstellung von Etiketten auf.Small containers, especially semi-preserved food for direct consumption from the container are often closed with sealed lids. These consist of an aluminum foil or a laminate of different materials and are sealed directly onto the edge of the container. The printed and corresponding to the contour of the container opening punched lid are stacked for transport. The smooth surfaces of such Lids tend to adhere to each other during stacking before applying to a container, so that it is not guaranteed that each time only a single lid is removed from the stack and fed to the container. In order to ensure the destacking or separation of individual covers, it is known to apply a surface embossing on or in the cover material. This embossing has an unfavorable effect on the printing, as it thereby loses its brilliance and, on the other hand, finely printed imprints, eg the expiry date, bar code or content information, are difficult to read.
Therefore, methods are already known in which at least that region of the lid is flattened again after the application of a stamping-promoting embossing in the writing area. However, a complete return of the embossing in a smooth surface is not possible.
The same disadvantages occur both in flat and deep-drawn packaging lids as well as in the production of labels.

Aus der EP 960024 ist es weiter bekannt, nur einen Teilbereich des Deckels mit einer Prägung zu versehen. Dieser Teilbereich befindet sich beispielsweise entlang des Deckelrandes, der den Kontakt- und Siegelbereich mit dem Behälter oder Gebinderand bildet. Dadurch bleibt der grösste Teil der bedruckten Fläche ungeprägt und damit können brillante Bedruckungen erhalten bleiben. Im weiteren lässt sich Kleingedrucktes problemlos aufbringen und es bleibt jederzeit lesbar. Um die partielle Prägung gemäss EP 960024 erzeugen zu können, muss mittels Lesemarken, welche auf dem bandförmigen bedruckten Folienmaterial aufgebracht sind, beim Abziehen des Bandes vom Coil dauernd die richtige Positionierung zwischen der Bedruckung und den Prägewalzen sichergestellt werden. Dies geschieht durch unterschiedliche Abzugskräfte der Folie vom Coil. Im weiteren müssen die Prägewalzen Prägungen mit Rapporten aufweisen, welche nicht mit dem Vorschub der Stanzmaschine deckungsgleich sind, um das sichere Abstapeln übereinander liegender Deckel gewährleisten zu können. Ein weiterer Nachteil dieses Verfahrens besteht darin, dass das Auswechseln der Prägewalzen bei einem Produktewechsel sehr zeitraubend bzw. kostspielig ist und daher lange Stillstandszeiten der Maschine in Kauf genommen werden müssen.From the EP 960024 it is also known to provide only a portion of the lid with an embossing. This subregion is located, for example, along the edge of the lid, which forms the contact and sealing area with the container or container edge. As a result, most of the printed surface remains unembossed and thus Brilliant imprints can be preserved. In addition, small print can be applied easily and it remains readable at all times. To the partial imprint according to EP 960024 To produce, must be ensured by means of read marks, which are applied to the band-shaped printed sheet material, when removing the tape from the coil permanently the correct positioning between the printing and the embossing rollers. This is done by different withdrawal forces of the film from the coil. Furthermore, the embossing rollers must have embossments with repeats, which are not congruent with the feed of the punching machine to ensure safe stacking superimposed lid can. Another disadvantage of this method is that the replacement of the embossing rollers in a product change is very time consuming or costly and therefore long downtime of the machine must be taken into account.

Eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung besteht nun darin, ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von partiell mit Prägungen versehenen und bedruckten aufsiegelbaren Verpackungsdeckeln und Etiketten zu schaffen, bei der das Prägewerkzeug einfach und rasch bei Formatwechseln austauschbar ist und bei dem sich die Deckungsgleichheit der Prägungen von Deckel zu Deckel auf einfache Weise vermeiden lässt.An object of the present invention is now to provide a method and apparatus for producing partially embossed and printed sealable packaging lids and labels in which the embossing tool is easily and quickly exchangeable for format changes and in which the congruence of the imprints of Lid to cover can be avoided in a simple manner.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch das Verfahren gemäss Anspruch 1 sowie die Vorrichtung gemäss Anspruch 6. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung werden in den abhängigen Ansprüchen umschrieben.This object is achieved by the method according to claim 1 and the device according to claim 6. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are described in the dependent claims.

Während des schrittweisen Vorschubes des Bandes für den Stanzvorgang wird die Stillstandszeit zum Prägen benutzt und es werden die Prägungen derart angebracht, dass keine Deckungsgleichheit der Prägungen in zwei übereinander zu liegen kommender Deckel entsteht. Bei Verwendung von verfahrensgemässen Prägeplatten können diese folglich synchron zum Stanzwerkzeug betätigt werden und durch eine Veränderung der gegenseitigen Lage von Folienband und Prägewerkzeug die Prägungen sicher deckungsungleich erzeugt werden. Mit einem Exzenterantrieb, welcher die Prägeplatten bezüglich des Folienbandes von Takt zu Takt verschiebt, können auf einfache Weise die notwendigen Deckungsungleichheiten sicher erlangt werden. Die Anordnung des Prägewerkzeugs unmittelbar vor dem Stanzwerkzeug ermöglicht es, beide Werkzeuge so aufeinander abzustimmen, dass keine oder kaum Korrekturen infolge Verstreckung des Folienbandes vor dem Prägen und/oder Stanzen notwendig sind. Durch eine Verschiebbarkeit des Prägewerkzeugs in Transportrichtung des Folienbandes können - falls notwendig - anhand der vorhandenen Druckmarken die Prägungen auf die Bedruckung der Deckel oder Etiketten abgestimmt werden.During the stepwise feed of the strip for the punching process, the downtime is used for embossing and the embossments are applied in such a way that no congruence of the embossments is created in two overlapping covers. When using embossing plates according to the invention, these can consequently be actuated synchronously with the punching tool and the embossings can be reliably produced by a change in the mutual position of the foil strip and embossing tool. With an eccentric drive, which shifts the embossing plates with respect to the film strip from bar to beat, the necessary coverage inequalities can be obtained safely in a simple manner. The arrangement of the embossing tool immediately in front of the punching tool makes it possible to match the two tools in such a way that no or hardly any corrections are necessary as a result of drawing the foil strip before embossing and / or punching. By a displaceability of the embossing tool in the transport direction of the film strip can - if necessary - based on the existing print marks, the embossing be matched to the printing of the lid or labels.

Es können nicht nur flache Deckel, sondern auch tiefgezogene Deckel und Etiketten nach dem erfindungsgemässen Verfahren bzw. mit der erfindungsgemässen Vorrichtung gefertigt werden.It can not only flat lid, but also deep-drawn lid and labels are made by the inventive method or with the inventive device.

Mit Bezugszeichen 1 ist in Figur 1 eine Vorrichtung zum Prägen und Bedrucken von Foliendeckeln schematisch dargestellt. Ein bedrucktes Folienband 3 wird als Rolle, einem sogenannten Coil 5, der Vorrichtung 1 vorgelegt. Der Coil 5 ist auf einem nicht dargestellten Bock um die Achse A drehbar gelagert. Mit einem Abzugswalzenpaar 7,9, welches durch nicht dargestellte Federn gegeneinander gepresst wird, wird das Folienband 3 vom Coil 5 abgezogen. Vor und nach dem Abzugswalzenpaar 7,9 können Stützwalzen 11,13 angeordnet sein, wobei die Stützwalze 13 das Folienband 3 gegenüber einer Tänzerwalze 15 stützt. Die Tänzerwalze 15 liegt, allenfalls in einer vertikalen Führung gehalten, jedoch vertikal frei beweglich auf dem Folienband 3. Das von der Tänzerwalze 15 weglaufende Folienband 3 wird von einer dritten Stützwalze 17, zu mindestens einer weiteren Umlenkwalze 19 geführt. Von dort gelangt das Folienband 3 entweder direkt oder über eine zweite Umlenkwalze 21 zwischen ein Prägewerkzeug 23. Im dargestellten Beispiel umfasst das Prägewerkzeug 23 zwei Prägeplatten 25 und 27. Die oben liegende Prägeplatte 27 ist in Richtung Y auf die untere Prägeplatte 25 pressbar und von dieser abhebbar gelagert. Die Führungsmittel sowie die Antriebe für die obere Prägeplatte 27 sind nicht dargestellt. Sie sind aus dem Stand der Technik von Prägewerkzeugen mit Prägeplatten bekannt.1, a device for embossing and printing of film covers is shown schematically in FIG. A printed foil strip 3 is presented as a roll, a so-called coil 5, of the device 1. The coil 5 is rotatably mounted on a Bock, not shown, about the axis A. With a pair of withdrawal rollers 7.9, which is pressed against each other by springs, not shown, the film strip 3 is subtracted from the coil 5. Support rolls 11, 13 may be arranged before and after the take-off roller pair 7, 9, wherein the support roller 13 supports the foil strip 3 with respect to a dancer roll 15. The dancer roller 15 is at most held in a vertical guide, but vertically movable freely on the Film strip 3. The film strip 3 running away from the dancer roller 15 is guided by a third support roller 17 to at least one further deflection roller 19. From there, the foil strip 3 passes either directly or via a second deflection roller 21 between an embossing tool 23. In the example shown, the embossing tool 23 comprises two embossing plates 25 and 27. The upper embossing plate 27 can be pressed in the direction Y on the lower embossing plate 25 and from this stored liftable. The guide means and the drives for the upper embossing plate 27 are not shown. They are known from the prior art of stamping dies with stamping plates.

Das gesamte Prägewerkzeug 23 ist zusätzlich auf einer Führungsplatte 29 in Richtung der Pfeile X verschiebbar gelagert. Die Verschiebung in X-Richtung erfolgt durch einen nicht dargestellten Antrieb, z.B. durch eine einen Servoantrieb. Die Führungsplatte 29 oder das darauf verschiebbar gelagerte Prägewerkzeug 23 ist zusätzlich durch einen Exzenterantrieb in X- und Y-Richtung verschiebbar (vgl. Figur 2). In Figur 2 ist ersichtlich, wie das Prägewerkzeug 23 in Führungsschienen 31 auf der Führungsplatte 29 in X-Richtung verschiebbar gelagert ist. Zudem ist ersichtlich, dass die Führungsplatte 29 auf einer Grundplatte aufliegt (in den Figuren nicht dargestellt) und von Exzenterantrieben 35 auf der Grundplatte gleitend verschiebbar ist. In Figur 2 liegt das Prägewerkzeug 23 in der dargestellten Position "1". Aus der Stellung "1" wird durch die Drehbewegung der Exzenterscheiben 37 je nach Prägemuster um 90° oder einen anderen Winkel das Prägewerkzeug 23 nach jedem Prägezyklus verschoben und dadurch von der Position "1" in die Position "2" etc. geführt. Die Prägungen 39 werden folglich jeweils um einen Betrag e verschoben. Nach dem Prägewerkzeug 23 wird die nun z.B. um die Bedruckung 41 herum ringförmig geprägte Folie über eine weitere Umlenkwalze 21 zu mindestens einem Förderwalzenpaar 43,45 geführt und gelangt von dort in ein Stanzwerkzeug 47. Das Stanzwerkzeug 47 ist aus dem Stand der Technik hinlänglich bekannt und umfasst zwei gegeneinander in Richtung Z verfahrbar geführte Platten 49 und 51. In der einen Platte 51 ist eine Ausstossöffnung 53 sichtbar, durch welche die ausgestanzten Deckel 55 in einen Sammelkanal 57 eingeführt und dort übereinander gestapelt werden. Im Sammelkanal 57 liegen die Deckel 55 satt aneinander und werden durch die von Deckel zu Deckel verschoben angebrachten Prägungen in geringem gegenseitigen Abstand gehalten, so dass sich zwischen den Deckeln ein dünnes Luftkissen bildet. Mit einem Abzugswalzenpaar 59,61 wird das nun als Stanzgitter 63 vorliegende Folienband 3 abgeführt. Gleichzeitig dienen die Abzugswalzen 59,61 zum Spannen des Folienbandes 3 während des Stanzens.The entire embossing tool 23 is additionally slidably mounted on a guide plate 29 in the direction of arrows X. The shift in the X direction is effected by a drive, not shown, for example by a servo drive. The guide plate 29 or the embossing tool 23 displaceably mounted thereon is additionally displaceable by an eccentric drive in the X and Y directions (cf., FIG. 2). In Figure 2 it can be seen how the embossing tool 23 is slidably mounted in guide rails 31 on the guide plate 29 in the X direction. In addition, it can be seen that the guide plate 29 rests on a base plate (not shown in the figures) and is slidable by eccentric drives 35 on the base plate. In Figure 2 is located the embossing tool 23 in the illustrated position "1". From the position "1" is moved by the rotational movement of the eccentric discs 37 depending on the embossing pattern by 90 ° or another angle the embossing tool 23 after each embossing cycle and thereby guided by the position "1" in the position "2", etc. The embossments 39 are thus each shifted by an amount e. After embossing tool 23, the film, which is now embossed annularly around printing 41, for example, is guided over at least one conveying roller pair 43, via another guide roller 21 and from there into punching tool 47. Punching tool 47 is well known in the art comprises two plates 49 and 51 movable against one another in the direction Z. An ejection opening 53 is visible in one plate 51, through which the punched-out covers 55 are introduced into a collecting channel 57 and stacked one above the other. In the collection channel 57, the cover 55 are full together and are held by the shifted from cover to lid imprints at a small mutual distance, so that forms a thin air cushion between the covers. With a take-off roller pair 59, 61, the foil strip 3, which is now present as a punched grid 63, is removed. At the same time, the take-off rollers 59, 61 serve for tensioning the foil strip 3 during punching.

Nachfolgend werden der Präge- und Stanzvorgang näher erläutert. Das von Coil 5 durch die Abzugswalzen 7 und 9 kontinuierlich abgezogene Folienband 3 wird von der Tänzerwalze 15 nach dem Abzugswalzenpaar 7,9 gespannt gehalten. Vom zweiten Abzugswalzenpaar 59,61 wird das Folienband 3 taktweise um einen vorbestimmten, dem Präge- und Stanzwerkzeug 47 und der Prägung 39 entsprechenden Betrag schrittweise vorgeschoben und jeweils kurzfristig angehalten. Der Abzug des Folienbandes 3 vom Coil 5 durch die Abzugswalzen 7,9 erfolgt weiterhin kontinuierlich. Während des Stopps des Vorschubs des Folienbandes 3 wird einerseits durch das Prägewerkzeug 23 die Prägung 39 durchgeführt und gleichzeitig in Transportrichtung T weiter unten das Ausstanzen der Deckel 55 aus dem Band 3 vorgenommen. Für den Abgleich des Prägewerkzeugs 23 auf die Bedruckung kann letzteres in Richtung des Pfeils X auf der Basisplatte 29 justiert werden. Unabhängig von der Justierung in Richtung X wird das Prägewerkzeug 23 durch den Exzenterantrieb 35 nach jedem Prägezyklus bezüglich der Führungsplatte 29 und damit auch bezüglich des Folienbandes 3 versetzt.The embossing and punching process will be explained in more detail below. The continuously withdrawn from Coil 5 through the take-off rollers 7 and 9 foil strip 3 is held by the dancer roller 15 after the pair of take-off rollers 7.9 tensioned. From the second pair of withdrawal rollers 59,61 the film strip 3 is cyclically advanced by a predetermined, the embossing and punching tool 47 and the embossment 39 corresponding amount and stopped in each case for a short time. The deduction of the film strip 3 from the coil 5 through the take-off rollers 7.9 continues to take place continuously. During the stop of the feed of the film strip 3 on the one hand by the embossing tool 23, the embossing 39 is carried out and at the same time in the transport direction T further punching out the lid 55 made of the band 3. For the adjustment of the embossing tool 23 on the print latter can be adjusted in the direction of the arrow X on the base plate 29. Regardless of the adjustment in the direction X, the embossing tool 23 is offset by the eccentric drive 35 after each embossing cycle with respect to the guide plate 29 and thus also with respect to the foil strip 3.

Selbstverständlich könnte anstelle einer Versetzung des Prägewerkzeugs 23 bezüglich der über stationäre Rollen laufenden Folienbahn 3 auch die Folienbahn 3 bezüglich des Prägewerkzeug 23 verschiebbar gelagert sein.Of course, instead of a displacement of the embossing tool 23 with respect to the running on stationary rollers film web 3 and the film web 3 with respect to the embossing tool 23 may be slidably mounted.

In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung erfolgt eine Prägung jeweils nur bei jedem zweiten Hub des Stanzwerkzeuges 47. Auf diese Weise kommt immer ein ungeprägter Deckel zwischen zwei geprägte bzw. ein geprägter Deckel zwischen zwei ungeprägte Deckel. Auf diese Weise kann das zwischen zwei übereinander gestapelten Deckeln vorhandene Luftkissen weiter sichergestellt werden. Zudem wird die Gefahr eines Ineinanderverhakens übereinander gestapelter Deckel während des Transports durch Erschütterungen des Transportmittels ausgeschlossen. Die ungeprägten Deckel verursachen zudem keine "Verdickung" und folglich können auf gleicher Stapelhöhe mehr Deckel gestapelt werden als bei durchgehend geprägten Deckeln.In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, embossing takes place in each case only at every second stroke of the punching tool 47. In this way, there is always an unembossed lid between two embossed or an embossed lid between two unembossed lid. In this way, between two stacked lids existing air cushion can be further ensured. In addition, the risk of Zusammeneinanderverhakens stacked lid is excluded during transport by shocks of the transport. The unembossed lid also cause no "thickening" and consequently more lids can be stacked at the same stack height than with continuously embossed lids.

Die erfindungsgemässe Vorrichtung bzw. das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren erlauben es zudem, nebst den Prägungen am Rand der Deckel reliefartige Prägungen im zentralen Bereich des Deckels aufzubringen. Solche reliefartigen Prägungen können beispielsweise Logos des Produkteherstellers und dgl. darstellen.In addition, the device according to the invention or the method according to the invention make it possible, in addition to the embossings on the edge of the lid, to apply relief-like embossings in the central region of the lid. Such relief-like embossments may represent, for example, logos of the product manufacturer and the like.
