Definitions

  • the present invention herein concerns a machine for rolling pillows or other products.
  • Machines for rolling said products (hereinafter also called “manufactured products”) which comprise a support cabin having an infeed zone for the product to be rolled fed by a conveyor belt, and an outfeed zone for the rolled product.
  • the cabin houses means for the support of a roll of plastic film (preferably polyethylene), which is first unwound and then wound with the product.
  • This plastic film is useful for sealing the rolled product and for protecting the external surface of the product itself which following the rolling folds and slides on itself.
  • said cabin supports means for threading the plastic film onto a motorised spindle, pressure means for facilitating the winding of the product around said motorised spindle and means for the ejection of the finished rolled product.
  • the operator Normally, before starting threading the film, that represents the preliminary phase of rolling the product, the operator has to position a hollow cylindrical core around the spindle, so that there is an intermediate body between said spindle and the rolled product.
  • Said core has to be mounted with minimum clearance, that is, such that the core rotates in one with the spindle during the winding and it can be pulled out of the spindle itself, with the rolled product, pushed by suitable ejection means.
  • the object of the present invention is to produce a machine for rolling substantially soft and elongated products such as pillows, mattresses, sleeping bags, quilts, duvets and similar, comprising a system that enables the ejection of the finished rolled product on the spindle without the interposition of any core between said spindle and said finished rolled product.
  • a machine for rolling substantially soft and elongated products comprising a base frame that supports rotating support means for a roll of plastic film, means for threading said plastic film around a motorised spindle, pressure means intended to favour the rolling of said product around said motorised spindle, means for cutting the plastic film and means for ejecting the finished rolled product, characterised in that said ejection means comprise a pneumatic system suitable for generating an air cushion between the spindle and the rolled product on it so as to favour the sliding of said product on the spindle and its axial removal in the ejection phase.
  • the air cushion generated at the end of the rolling phase permits a minimum clearance between spindle and product at the time of ejection without moreover affecting the compactness of the rolled product.
  • the Figures show a machine 1 for rolling pillows or manufactured products 2 comprising a cabin 3 that supports a rotating shaft 4 of support for a roll of plastic film 5 (preferably polyethylene), a pressure cylinder 6 controlled by a regulation unit 7 comprising pneumatically-controlled cylinders 13, and a motorised horizontal spindle 8 around the plastic film 5 and the pillow 2 are wound.
  • a machine 1 for rolling pillows or manufactured products 2 comprising a cabin 3 that supports a rotating shaft 4 of support for a roll of plastic film 5 (preferably polyethylene), a pressure cylinder 6 controlled by a regulation unit 7 comprising pneumatically-controlled cylinders 13, and a motorised horizontal spindle 8 around the plastic film 5 and the pillow 2 are wound.
  • the cabin 3 has an infeed zone 9 for the pillow 2 to be rolled, fed by a conveyor belt 10 supported by a steel structure 11 adjacent to the cabin 3, and an outfeed zone 12 for the rolled pillow 2.
  • the cabin 3 supports fixed side grippers 14 to block the film 5 during the cutting, mobile grippers 15 for unwinding the roll of plastic film 5, and a threading unit 16 for favouring the winding of the plastic film 5 around the spindle 8, a cutter 17 for cutting the plastic film 5 at the end of the winding and permitting a motorised pusher 18 to eject the rolled pillow 2.
  • the mobile grippers 15 are in one with a rod 19 of a pneumatic cylinder 20.
  • the threading unit 16 comprises a controlled mobile arm 21 with end wheel 22 that slides along a guide 23 that can be inclined by means of a pneumatic piston 24 and a hinge 25.
  • the cutter 17 comprises a blade 26 in one with a mobile trolley 27 that slides along a horizontal guide 28, in particular a cylinder without stem.
  • the motorised pusher 18 has a hole 31 intended to engage with the spindle 8, and slides along a guide 29 by means of wheels 30, said guide 29 including timing drive belts that are not shown.
  • the motorised spindle 8 comprises an internal hollow cylinder 32 in one with the cabin 3 and a rotatable hollow external cylinder 33 coaxial to said first cylinder 32. Both the cylinders 32-33 have peripheral holes 34. The clearance between the cylinders 32-33 is minimum so as to guarantee the rotation of the external cylinder 33 on the internal cylinder 32.
  • the internal cylinder 32 is subdivided into hermetically sealed compartments 50 by separators 35.
  • An electronically controlled pneumatic device 36 supplies compressed air to each hermetically sealed compartment 50 through feeding tubes 37.
  • the spindle 8 rotates thanks to a chain transmission 38 ( Figure 9 ) constituted by a chain 39 drawn between a driven pinion 40 fitted on the spindle 8 and a driving pinion 41 moved by a motor 42.
  • Figures 11-14 show a second type of a motorized spindle 100, comprising a single hollow cylinder 101 with a series of holes 102 arranged according to a straight line parallel to the axis of the spindle 100.
  • figures 11-12 show a spindle 100 in a single piece (simple spindle 100), thus with a single hermetically sealed compartment 50;
  • figures 13-14 show a spindle 100 composed with more than one interconnected modules 103 (modular spindle 100), each module individuating a hermetically sealed compartment 50.
  • the modular spindle 100 shown in figures 12-13 allows to vary the length of the spindle 100 according to the dimensions of the product to be rolled.
  • the mobile grippers 15 grip the ends of the plastic film 5 pulling it until it reaches the spindle 8 ( Figure 3 ) where the threading unit 16 starts favouring the winding of the plastic film 5 around the spindle 8 (still immobile).
  • Figure 4 it is possible to observe the lengthening of the inclined arm 21 following the movement of the piston 24.
  • the spindle 100 If on the machine 1 is mounted the spindle 100 with a single hollow cylinder 101, it isn't necessary the presence of the threading unit 16. In fact the grippers 15 drag the plastic film 5 close to the spindle 100 ( figure 15 ), positioned so that the series of holes 102 is in front of the plastic film 5.
  • the device 36 by the tubes 37, useful also during the ejection operation, sucks air making the plastic film 5 adherent to the spindle 100 ( figure 16 ).
  • the spindle 8, 100 then starts to rotate first pulling the plastic film 5, then the pillow 2.
  • the latter is brought to the spindle 8 by means of the conveyor belt 10, and the pressure cylinder 6 compresses the pillow 2 reducing its thickness and thus favouring its rolling ( Figure 6 ).
  • the plastic film 5 continues winding up thus supplying a protection to the surface of the pillow 2, which in this manner does not slide on itself in consequence of the rolling.
  • the rolled pillow 2 is ready to be ejected.
  • the ejection phase consists of first an air cushion 51 ( Figure 9 ) being generated between spindle 8 and pillow 2, then the pusher 18 activates to pull out said pillow 2 from the spindle 8.
  • the device 36 For the air cushion to be generated the device 36 has to supply compressed air into the hermetically sealed compartments 50 separated by the separators 35 by means of the tubes 37.
  • the air flows through the interstices between the cylinder 32-33.
  • the subdivision into hermetically sealed compartments 50 serves to limit the loss of pressure that could make the air cushion non-homogeneous.
  • the pusher 38 pushes the rolled pillow 2 out of the machine without meeting any particular resistance.
  • the machine 1 according to the present invention is thus capable of ejecting the rolled pillow 2 without the use of cylindrical cores between the spindle 8 and the pillow 2.
  • the machine can operate within a manufacturing chain without operator.
  • an interface operator panel is provided for.
  • the electric panel is complete with control system.
  • mattresses, sleeping bags, quilts, duvets and similar can also be rolled (manufactured products in general).
  • the use of the spindle 100 entails appreciable advantages about encumbrance (there isn't the threading unit 16, the spindle 100 being used also for the threading operation) and about work time (the threading operation is easier). Also, the spindle 100 is constructively easier than the spindle 8.
  • the spindle 100 can be used with the threading unit 16 too.
