Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a valve sack whose wall is folded into a tube and closed; Whereupon a cross-bottom is formed with side impacts and bottom flaps, wherein in a formed by the turning of the bottom flaps valve opening a closed to a valve tube, a weldable layer exhibiting valve sheet is inserted and bonded to the bottom flaps.
  • the invention further relates to a valve bag with a folded into a tube, inserted into a bottom fold valve sheet, which is provided on its inner side with a weldable coating.
  • valve sacks which have a valve tube formed from a valve tube, which is inserted into a formed during the folding of the bottom of the valve sack valve opening, is known in numerous embodiments.
  • the bottom with the inserted valve tube is generally covered and secured by a glued rectangular bottom cover sheet.
  • valve tube can remain within the valve opening, ie below the bottom cover sheet. In this case we speak of an internal valve. If the valve hose protrudes only slightly from the valve opening, this is called a stub valve. A valve tube extending beyond the gusset edge of the flattened material tube forming the bag wall is referred to as an outboard valve.
  • valve tube inserted into the valve opening allows a guided filling of the valve bag with the filling material through a filling tube of a filling machine. After filling of the valve bag, the contents push the valve tube flat together, which causes a sufficiently tight closure of the valve opening for many applications.
  • valve tube For highly dusty and / or toxic filling materials, it must be ensured that absolutely no contents escape from the interior of the valve sack after filling.
  • closure options for the valve tube There are therefore numerous closure options for the valve tube has been proposed.
  • a frequently used closure option for the valve tube consists in its welding in a flattened position after filling.
  • the valve sheet must consist of an already weldable material or have a corresponding weldable coating.
  • the material used for the valve sheet is often paper which is provided with the weldable coating.
  • the application of the weldable coating should be water based for environmental reasons. It is known to provide the valve sheet over the entire surface with a coating of an aqueous polyvinyl alcohol.
  • Such a coating of polyvinyl alcohol has the disadvantage that it becomes tacky when moistened.
  • it is therefore known to insert a protective sheet in the flat-lying valve tube.
  • the present invention has for its object to enable the production of a valve bag with a weldable valve easier to handle, in which moreover coating material can be saved.
  • the method of the type mentioned is according to the invention characterized in that the weldable layer is printed as a dispersion on the valve sheet in the form of a strip whose area occupies less than half of the surface of the valve sheet.
  • a valve bag of the type mentioned is also according to the invention characterized in that the coating is formed as an imprinted strip whose area occupies less than half of the surface of the valve sheet.
  • the weldable coating is unusually printed on the valve sheet.
  • a printing method in particular the screen printing method, a defined material application, preferably with an aqueous dispersion, can be realized in strip form on a partial surface of the valve sheet.
  • the weldable layer preferably has a basis weight of 50 g / m 2 after drying.
  • the printed strip can be designed to be very narrow and take, for example, less than 1/4 or 1/5 of the area of the valve sheet in the longitudinal direction of the valve tube.
  • the weldable layer is printed as a transverse strip on a continuously vorge arbitrtes endless belt.
  • the location of the printed strip is optically detected and used to control a separating knife for cutting the valve sheet from the continuous web.
  • the weldable material can be used in a color that contrasts with the material of the valve sheet, so that a visual recognizability is given.
  • the printed material of the weldable coating itself is optically detected.
  • “Color” is understood to be any contrasting with the material of the valve sheet manifestation.
  • An addition of a color is required when a usually transparent acrylate coating is used as the carrier.
  • the optical detection can also be done by means of a printed mark.
  • the control of the separating knife is also possible in another form, for example with an optically or mechanically detectable punching.
  • valve sheet from the continuous material makes it possible to cut off the valve sheet at the end of the printed strip so that the printed strip is positioned as a weldable layer at the outer end of the valve tube where it is best gripped for welding with appropriate welding tools can be.
  • FIG. 1 shows an endless belt of material 1 made of paper, on each of which over the entire width of a strip 2 is printed from a weldable material.
  • the printing is done by screen printing with an aqueous dispersion having a basis weight of 120 g / m 2 . After drying, a layer having a basis weight of 50 g / m 2 is formed .
  • the strips 2 point in the longitudinal direction (arrow A in FIG. 1 ) of the material strip 1 has a width which corresponds to less than 1/5 of the distance between two strips 2.
  • the printed strips 2 are detected by a photodetector 3, which controls a separating knife 4 arranged downstream of the material web 1.
  • Valve blades 5 are cut off from the endless material band 1 with the severing blade 4 such that the valve blade 5 has the material strip 2 in its full width at one end.
  • FIG. 2 Diagonal Eckeinelle 7 and bottom flaps 8 are visible, which are overlapping on intended grooves 9 are glued to each other and thus form the bottom with a valve opening between the Eckeintsch 7 on the one hand and the Bottom flaps 8 on the other hand arises.
  • FIG. 2 shows that the valve sheet 5 is placed on the still open bottom flaps so that it is foldable around fold lines 10, which are aligned with the grooves 9 of the bottom flaps 8, to a closed valve tube 11, as in FIG. 3 is shown.
  • FIG. 3 shows the bottom floor formed after folding the bottom flaps 8, to which a conventional rectangular Bodenabdeckblatt 12 is glued to secure the bonding of the bottom flaps 8 together.
  • FIG. 3 shows that the valve tube 11 protrudes laterally from the bottom cover sheet 12, but its length within the through the side edges 13 of the Hose section 6 of the valve bag formed contour remains, so here a stub valve is shown.
  • the stub valve is not quite flat lying, but somewhat oval open, so in FIG. 3 a small portion of the strip 2 of weldable material is visible.
  • valve tube 11 To attach to a filling tube with a circular or elliptical cross-section of the valve tube 11 is opened accordingly to allow filling of the valve bag. After filling the valve tube 11 is gripped in the region of the strip 2 with welding tools and welded by an appropriate power supply and thus hermetically sealed.
