Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for packaging stackable articles, in particular printed products.
  • slip lid boxes have a bottom part and a substantially similar thereto and with a slightly larger length and width constructed lid part, wherein the bottom and lid part are slipped from opposite sides of the product stack formed from the printed products over this, wherein the lid part engages over the bottom part.
  • Slipboard boxes are classified as "Type 03" according to the common standard of the FEFCO (European Corrugated Board Manufacturers Association).
  • the bottom part In order to ensure a stackability of Stülpdeckelkartons, in the packaging of stackable products, the bottom part usually filled with a certain supernatant (ie beyond its actual height) filled with the product stack, so that when stacking several boxes, the weight of each overlying Cartons is carried by the products and does not have to be picked up from the side walls of the cartons. Subsequently, the lid part is slipped over the product stack from its opposite side, wherein the dimensions of the lid part are selected so that it fits over the bottom part. As a result, the height of the filled slip-on box thus varies depending on the height of the product stack picked up by it.
  • the above-described packaging operation is conventionally carried out manually by one or more persons located at the end of a paper processing line, with a high output of the paper processing line (today's equipment can typically - depending on the page number of the individual printed product - up to a few hundred products per minute produce) with a high workload and - with increasing the number of packaging personnel - as a result of the usually cramped conditions to space problems.
  • the manual packaging in such boxes means a high physical burden of the corresponding persons, since the corresponding, usually a few kilograms heavy printed products stack must be raised and placed in the boxes.
  • stack in the context of the present invention is intended to encompass not only the most common case in practice that corresponding individual products are stacked on top of each other. stacked vertically. Rather, “stacks” can be processed in which a plurality of products are arranged side by side and with the side surfaces lying against each other, so that the stacking direction is horizontal in this case. It is also possible to package a plurality of adjacent vertical stacks, for example two adjacent stacks of DIN-A5 printed products, which together make up an area the size of a DIN A4 sheet.
  • the device has a control device, by means of which the first slip-over device, the second slip-over device and the turning device can be actuated to carry out a cycle operation.
  • the device has a first magazine for receiving a supply of bottom parts and a second magazine for receiving a supply of cover parts, wherein the first and the second magazine for receiving the bottom or lid parts each formed in its flat folded state are.
  • the magazines are preferably arranged above the overturning devices, whereby the required shelf space for the device according to the invention is reduced can, which is particularly advantageous for integration into existing paper processing lines with little space available.
  • the first Matterstülp adopted and / or the second Studentsstülp noisy means for erecting the bottom part and the cover part from its flat folded state in its erected state.
  • This embodiment has the advantage that preferably as "Germanrichtekartons" trained bottom or lid parts can be supplied in the same step from the respective magazine of the suppression device and at the same time can be erected, whereby a further increase in the operating speed and thus the throughput of the device according to the invention can be achieved.
  • the first overrun device and / or the second overrun device can in particular have at least one swivel arm, which is preferably provided with at least one suction device.
  • At least one adjusting device is provided for adjusting the relative position of the stackable products of the product stack relative to one another in the first and / or second transport position.
  • the apparatus comprises singulating means for enabling the selective removal of a single cardboard part from the cardboard part stacking of the magazines. This allows the separation of the bottom or lid parts before their removal from the respective magazine and thus at high throughput rates rapid and reliable access.
  • the transport device may in particular comprise a conveyor track running along the transport path and at least one guide element for guiding the product stack on this conveyor track.
  • the conveyor track can preferably be a roller conveyor, but also a conveyor belt, a slide or the like.
  • a device for automatic labeling and / or labeling of the respective bottom part and / or cover part is also provided.
  • the invention further relates to a method for packaging stackable products according to the features of independent claim 10.
  • a method for packaging stackable products according to the features of independent claim 10.
  • a device 10 comprises a transport device formed by a roller conveyor 1 and a sliding device 2, by means of which a product stack 3 can be transported along a predetermined transport path (which runs in a straight line in the exemplary embodiment without limiting the generality).
  • the product stack 3 is in Fig. 1a merely as an example of a total of eight printed products (eg brochures) existing stack shown and is a transport comb forming driver or slider elements of the pusher 2, which engage from the bottom or the footprint through the roller conveyor 1 through and in the transport direction on both sides of the product stack 3 between themselves or take along, in the symbolized by the direction of the arrows P1 transport direction out.
  • the device 10 comprises according to Fig. 1a Further, a magazine 4 for receiving a supply of bottom parts 23 of slip-lid boxes and a magazine 8 of lid parts 24 of slip-lid boxes, each in a flat folded state.
  • the bottom and top parts 23, 24 are formed in a basically known manner as "erecting cartons", so that a detailed representation and description can be dispensed with here.
  • both the bottom and the lid parts have so-called stabilizer tabs that slide when erecting on the cardboard bottom, "latch” in recesses in the bottom of the box in the final position and fix the side walls in the erected state automatically, so that once erected bottom or lid part no longer coincides by itself.
  • the magazines 4, 8 are arranged above the respective Studentsstülpstationen and use in this way the "air space" above the device.
  • the magazines may also be designed as parallel arranged double magazines (not shown), wherein each is supplied from a magazine shaft, while the other can be refilled, whereupon the refilled shaft then in the position of Feed shaft can be moved, which is only a very short shutdown is required.
  • the magazines can of course also be refilled during operation "from above”.
  • a separating device 5 for isolating the bottom or lid parts is used in each case a separating device 5, according to the embodiment, as shown in the enlarged view in Fig. 1f seen, in the direction of the double arrows P2 movable, in each case in the approximate position between two adjacent cardboard parts of the cardboard part stack engaging elements (lancing fingers) comprises, which taper tapered to the respective other element pointed.
  • Suction grippers 6 are associated with both the magazine 4 and the magazine 8 and serve to remove the previously isolated by means of the separating device 5 cardboard parts the magazine 4 and 8, in the direction of the arrows P3 according to Fig. 1b unfold and push over the product stack 3 in question.
  • the suction grippers 6 each comprise a suction cup 6b located on a swivel arm 6a and can be acted upon by a vacuum source with negative pressure.
  • the suction grippers 6 the respective bottom or lid part is first brought into the erected position, ie opened, and then slipped over the product stack 3 located in the transport position. With exact positioning of the product stack directly under the suction gripper 6 the latter has to be moved only vertically.
  • any other suitable system can be used to set up the cardboard parts.
  • the swivel arm in a modification of the embodiment of Fig. 1f be formed so that it od with a driver or the like. Directly into the interior of the carton forming region of the bottom or lid part engages, in which case no suction cups or no vacuum source are required.
  • Fig. 1b illustrated position are product stacks 3, which have arrived in the first and second transport position, via in the direction of arrows P3 highly driven Justieranelle 11a, 12a (stops in the transport direction) or 11 b, 12b (stops in the transverse direction) of a positioning device 11 and 12 with respect to the relative position of the stackable products of the product stack 3 aligned on all sides, so that corrects an undesirable relative displacement of these products, a "snagging" of the slipped cardboard parts avoided and thus error-free operation of the device is ensured.
  • the position and maximum extension height of the alignment stops 11a, b or 12a, b of these positioning devices 11, 12 can be adapted to the respective dimensions of the printed products stack 3. In this case, the extension height is preferably selected so that even the topmost printed product of the product stack 3 is protected from undesired displacement.
  • the product stack 3 located in the area of the turning device 7 is turned, ie, about the horizontal axis running transversely to the direction of transport by 180 ° in the direction of the in Fig. 1c and Fig. 1d drawn arrows P5 rotated.
