Vorteile der ErfindungAdvantages of the invention

Das erfindungsgemäße eigenständig arbeitende Applikationsmodul, insbesondere für eineThe independently operating application module according to the invention, in particular for a

Verpackungsmaschine, umfasst die Merkmale des unabhängigen Anspruchs. Die Applizierung von beispielsweise innenliegenden Kaffeeventilen erfolgt ohne aufwändigen mechanischen und elektrischen Eingriff in eine Schlauchbeutelmaschine/Verpackungsanlage oder Folienbahn. Die Arbeitsweise der nachgeschalteten Verpackungsmaschine kann intermittierend oder kontinuierlich sein.Packaging machine comprising the features of the independent claim. The application of, for example, internal coffee valves is carried out without complicated mechanical and electrical intervention in a tubular bag machine / packaging system or film web. The operation of the downstream packaging machine may be intermittent or continuous.

Durch die Entkopplung des eigenständig arbeitenden Applikationsmoduls von der eigentlichen Verpackungsmaschine wie beispielsweise Schlauchbeutelmaschine können hohe Leistungen erzielt werden, die beispielsweise bei 120 Ventilapplikationen in der Minute liegen. Die Linienprojektierung wird auf ein Minimum reduziert, da es nur wenige und einfache Schnittstellen zu nachgelagerten Maschinen gibt. Aus diesem Grund ist auch die Nachrüstung von bereits installierten Verpackungslinien ohne Entgasungsventile mit weniger Risiko verbunden, und die Umbauzeit vor Ort wird im Verhältnis zur integrierten Lösung verkürzt. Mit diesem Modul können auch schnell laufende Schlauchbeutelmaschinen mit kontinuierlichem Folienvorzug innen liegende Kaffeeentgasungsventile verarbeiten. Das erfindungsgemäße eigenständig arbeitendeDue to the decoupling of the independently operating application module from the actual packaging machine, such as, for example, a tubular bag machine, high outputs can be achieved, which are, for example, 120 valve applications per minute. The line configuration is reduced to a minimum, since there are only a few and simple interfaces to downstream machines. For this reason Retrofitting existing packaging lines without degassing valves is also less risky, and on-site rebuild time is reduced relative to the integrated solution. With this module even high-speed tubular bag machines with continuous film preference can process internal coffee degassing valves. The inventive working independently

Applikationsmodul dient zudem der Entkopplung des vor- und nachgelagerten Prozesses (intermittierend oder kontinuierlich). Es weißt eine separate Steuerung auf. Die nachfolgende Verpackungsmaschine wie beispielsweise eine Schlauchbeutelmaschine kann von einem beliebigen Hersteller sein, was den Projektierungsaufwand reduziert. Ein komplett erprobtes Modul kann bei einer Nachrüstung bereitgestellt werden. Zudem lässt sich das eigenständig arbeitende Applikationsmodul leicht für andere Varianten/Anwendungen wie beispielsweise ZIP-Verschlüsse oder Wiederverschlüsse (auf Folien zu kleben oder zu siegeln).Application module also serves to decouple the upstream and downstream process (intermittent or continuous). It has a separate control. The following packaging machine such as a tubular bag machine can be from any manufacturer, which reduces the configuration effort. A fully tested module can be provided during a retrofit. In addition, the independently operating application module can easily be used for other variants / applications such as ZIP closures or reclosures (to be glued or sealed to films).

Weitere Vorteile und vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen des erfindungsgemäßen eigenständig arbeitenden Applikationsmoduls ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen und aus der Beschreibung.Further advantages and advantageous developments of the independently operating application module according to the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims and from the description.

Beschreibung des AusführungsbeispielsDescription of the embodiment

Ein eigenständig arbeitendes Applikationsmodul 10 besteht aus einem Gestell 12 mit angeschraubtem Schaltschrank 14, integriertem Bedien- und Anzeigeterminal 16 und eigener Beschutzung. Eine Packstoffrollenaufhängung 18 und ein Schneide- und Klebetisch 20 wird von der bestehenden Verpackungsanlage entkoppelt und am Gestell 12 befestigt. Eine Vorabwicklung 22, die einen Packstoff 13 wie beispielsweise eine Folie kontinuierlich in einen Folienspeicher 24 einträgt, und ein servomotorisch angetriebener Vakuumfolienvorzug 26, der aus dem Folienspeicher 24 den Packstoff 13 intermittierend vorzieht, bilden den Packstoffvorzug. Für die genaue Platzierung des einzusiegelnden Gegenstands wie beispielsweise ein Ventil arbeitet der Folienvorzug 26 mit einer Druckmarkensteuerung 30. Zwischen Folienspeicher 24 und Vakuumfolienvorzug 26 sind eine servomotorisch angetriebene Siegelstation 32 und eineAn independently operating application module 10 consists of a frame 12 with screwed-on control cabinet 14, integrated control and display terminal 16 and own protection. A packaging material roll suspension 18 and a cutting and gluing table 20 are decoupled from the existing packaging installation and fastened to the frame 12. A pre-processing 22, which continuously enters a packaging material 13 such as a film in a film storage 24, and a servo motor driven vacuum film preferred 26, which prefers the packaging material 13 intermittently from the film storage 24, form the packaging material advantage. For the exact placement of the object to be sealed in, such as a valve, the film advantage 26 operates with a print mark control 30. Between the film store 24 and the vacuum film preference 26, a sealing station 32 driven by a servo motor and a

Folieneinschneidstation 34 untergebracht. Zur Reduzierung der Prozesszeit arbeitet die Siegelstation 32 im Ultraschallverfahren mittels einer Ultraschallschweißeinrichtung 36. Ein elektromagnetischer Schwingförderer 38 zur Sortierung und Zuführung der nicht dargestellten einzusiegelnden Gegenstände in die Siegelstation 32 ist auf der Deckplatte des Gestells 12 platziert. Der Signalaustausch zur nachgeschalteten Maschine erfolgt über potenzialfreie Kontakte. Der Siegelstation 32 werden die einzusiegelnden Gegenstände über eine Zuführrinne 40 vom Schwingförderer 38 zugeführt. Der Siegelstation 32 ist eine Bahnkantensteuerung 44 vorgeschaltet. Die nun mit den eingesiegelten Gegenständen versehene Folie 13 verläset das eigenständig arbeitende Applikationsmodul 10 über eine Folienweiterführung 42, die beispielsweise mit einer Schwinge zurFoil cutting station 34 housed. To reduce the process time, the sealing station 32 operates in the ultrasound process by means of an ultrasonic welding device 36. An electromagnetic vibrating conveyor 38 for sorting and feeding the objects not shown to be sealed in the sealing station 32 is placed on the cover plate of the frame 12. The signal exchange to the downstream machine takes place via potential-free contacts. The sealing station 32, the articles to be sealed are fed via a feed chute 40 from the vibratory conveyor 38. The sealing station 32 is preceded by a web edge control 44. The now provided with the sealed objects slide 13 leaves the independently operating application module 10 via a Folienweiterführung 42, for example, with a rocker for

Aufrechterhaltung der Bahnspannung ausgestattet ist. Eine separate Steuerung für das Applikationsmodul 10 ist in einem Schaltschrank 14, der mit dem Gestell 12 verbunden ist, untergebracht.Maintaining the web tension is equipped. A separate control for the application module 10 is housed in a control cabinet 14 which is connected to the frame 12.

Das eigenständig arbeitende Applikationsmodul 10 dient insbesondere für dieThe independently operating application module 10 is used in particular for the

Verbindung von innen liegenden Kaffeeentgasungsventilen mit einem Verpackungsmaterial 13 wie beispielsweise eine Folie. Diese Ventile werden über einen Schwingförderer 38 dem Applikationsmodul 10 zugeführt. Der mit den Ventilen versehene Packstoff 13 kann anschließend weiteren Verpackungsmaschinen zugeführt werden wie beispielsweise Schlauchbeutelmaschinen zur Herstellung und Abfüllung eines Kaffeebeutels. Das Vorsehen eines eigenständig arbeitenden Applikationsmoduls 10 vereinfacht das Nachrüsten von bestehenden Verpackungsmaschinen und dient der Entkopplung des vor- und nachgelagerten Prozesses. Wie den Figuren 2 und 3 zu entnehmen, befindet sich die Packstoffrolle 11 in der Packstoffrollenaufhängung 18. Die Folie 13 gelangt über Umlenkrollen zu dem Schneid- und Klebetisch 20. Wird das Ende einer Packstoffrolle 11 erkannt, so dient der Schneid- und Klebetisch 20 der Verbindung der auslaufenden Folienbahn mit dem Anfang einer neuen Folienbahn einer neuen Packstoffrolle 11. Die Folie 13 wird über die Vorabwicklung 23 dem Folienspeicher 24 zugeführt. Erfindungsgemäß eignet sich für Applikationsmodule 10 mit hoher Leistung ein sogenannter Luftsackfolienspeicher. Diese an sich bekannte Folienspeicherart umfasst - A -Connection of internal Kaffeeentgasungsventilen with a packaging material 13 such as a film. These valves are supplied to the application module 10 via a vibratory conveyor 38. The packaging material 13 provided with the valves can subsequently be supplied to further packaging machines, such as, for example, tubular bag machines for producing and filling a coffee bag. The provision of an independently operating application module 10 simplifies the retrofitting of existing packaging machines and serves to decouple the upstream and downstream process. As can be seen in FIGS. 2 and 3, the packaging material roll 11 is located in the packaging roll suspension 18. The film 13 passes to the cutting and bonding table 20 via deflection rollers. If the end of a packaging material roll 11 is detected, then the cutting and bonding table 20 serves Connection of the outgoing film web with the beginning of a new film web of a new packaging material roll 11. The film 13 is fed to the film storage 24 via the preliminary development 23. According to the invention, a so-called airbag film storage is suitable for application modules 10 with high performance. This per se known Folienspeicherart includes - A -

zudem eine beispielsweise über eine Lichtschranke erfolgende Regelung sowie eine Vakuumbremse zur Aufrechterhaltung der gewünschten Folienspannung. Eine Schikane dient der sauberen Folienführung. Durch den nach dem Luftsackprinzip arbeitenden Folienspeicher 24 lassen sich sehr kurze Vorschubzeiten erzielen. Prinzipiell sind jedoch auch andere Arten bekannter Folienspeicher 24 denkbar. Vom Folienspeicher 24 gelangt die Folie 13 zur Folieneinschneidstation 34. Die Folie 13 wird an der Stelle durchschnitten, wo später in der Siegelstation 32 das Ventil mit der Folie versiegelt verbunden wird. Anschließend wird die Folie intermittierend der Siegelstation 32 zugeführt. Die Ventile gelangen über den Schwingförderer 38 und die Zuführrinne 40 an die Siegelstation 32. Mittels einer Positioniereinrichtung wird das Ventil in die gewünschte Siegelposition gebracht über der Einschnittstelle in der Folie 13. Das Ventil wird einem Siegelstempel zugeführt, der in vertikaler Richtung in eine Siegelposition gebracht wird. In Siegelverfahren kommen beispielsweise thermische Verfahren zum Einsatz, die, konventionell oder über Ultraschall, Wärme erzeugen. Im gezeigten Applikationsmodul 10 kommt erfϊndungsgemäß eine Ultraschallschweißeinrichtung 36 zum Einsatz, welche sehr kurze Schweißtakte ermöglicht. Grundsätzlich sind jedoch auch andere Verfahren denkbar. Der Vakuumfolienvorzug 26 ist beispielsweise servomotorisch angetrieben und zieht die Folie 13 intermittierend aus dem Folienspeicher 24. Der intermittierende Folienvorzug könnte jedoch auch in anderer Art und Weise als durch Vakuum erzeugt werden. Die Vakuumpumpe 28, die ebenfalls Bestandteil desApplikationsmoduls ist, stellt das benötigte Vakuum zur Verfügung.In addition, for example, via a photoelectric control and a vacuum brake to maintain the desired film tension. A chicane is used for clean film guidance. By working on the airbag principle foil memory 24 can be achieved very short feed times. In principle, however, other types of known film storage 24 are conceivable. From the film storage 24, the film 13 passes to the film cutting station 34. The film 13 is cut at the point where later in the sealing station 32, the valve is sealed to the film. Subsequently, the film is intermittently fed to the sealing station 32. By means of a positioning device, the valve is brought into the desired sealing position over the incision interface in the film 13. The valve is fed to a sealing die which is brought into a sealing position in the vertical direction becomes. In sealing processes, for example, thermal processes are used which, conventionally or via ultrasound, generate heat. In the illustrated application module 10 erfϊndungsgemäß an ultrasonic welding device 36 is used, which allows very short welding cycles. In principle, however, other methods are conceivable. The vacuum film leader 26 is, for example, driven by a servo motor and pulls the film 13 intermittently out of the film store 24. However, the intermittent film preference could also be produced in a manner other than by vacuum. The vacuum pump 28, which is also part of the application module, provides the required vacuum.

Anstelle von Ventilen als einzusiegelnde Gegenstände können auch Wiederverschlüsse, ZIP-Verschlüsse oder dergleichen appliziert werden, welche gesiegelt/geklebt werden, oder aber beliebige andere Gegenstände. Instead of valves as objects to be sealed, also reclosures, ZIP-closures or the like can be applied, which are sealed / glued, or any other objects.
