Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for transporting plate elements of low specific mass, paper or cardboard, within a folder-gluer machine; machine commonly used in the packaging industry for making, for example, cardboard boxes.
  • a folder-gluer machine comprises a series of modules and stations whose number varies according to the complexity of the manufacturing operations that requires the type of box chosen.
  • Such machines generally consist of a feeder supplying the production of cut-out boxes from a stack, an alignment module, a breaker pre-crushing the first and third folds between 90 ° and 180 °, a module of folders with hooks which bend at 180 ° the front legs and the rear legs of the cut, a gluing station, a folder for folding the 2nd and 4th folds of the cut, a presser that compresses the 2nd and 4th folds and deposits the boxes in sheet, and finally a receiving module that receives the boxes while keeping them pressed to allow the glue to dry.
  • the conveyance of the blanks from one station to another is carried out by means of belt conveyors which, by friction, grip the cuts between a lower conveyor and an upper conveyor.
  • the lower conveyor is provided with lower belts and the upper carrier is provided with either upper belts or upper support rollers.
  • the lower conveyor comprises two or more longitudinal longitudinal members each supporting an endless conveyor belt guided by pulleys and rollers.
  • Each spar is mounted laterally sliding through bearings along one or more slideways mounted fixed between two longitudinal frames.
  • the lateral displacement of each beam is ensured by one or more parallel screws mounted in rotation between the frames, the threaded portions of the screws being respectively engaged in transverse threaded orifices of the longitudinal members.
  • the drive of the endless conveyor belt is provided by a drive shaft rotatably mounted between the frames and engaged in a pulley of the spar, called driving pulley.
  • the drive shaft is connected by a drive train to an electric motor, so when the motor is running, the shaft is rotated.
  • the drive shaft is in the form of a metal bar of polygonal section, for example hexagonal, cooperating form with a transverse orifice formed in the axis of the drive pulley.
  • a spar moves laterally under the action of the adjusting screws, it slides along the slideways and along the drive shaft.
  • the power required to work and to cause the cuts in the machine depends on the width of the machine.
  • the larger the machine the greater the forces to be transmitted, which makes it necessary to increase the torsional resistance of the shaft, for example by increasing its section.
  • the drive shaft should be designed only to withstand torsion since the weight of the rails is supported by the slides movement but in practice we see that machine operators do not hesitate to climb on the drive shaft to access certain parts of the machine. Therefore, to prevent the drive shaft from bending, it is also designed to support the weight of a man without bending, which increases the cost of manufacturing the tree.
  • a sleeve is generally in the form of a volute spring whose end is secured to a frame and whose other end is secured to a spar, the lateral displacement of the spar causing the extension or compression of the spring . It is easy to understand that the presence of such a spring requires dimension the strut moving screws accordingly. Indeed, the greater the stiffness of the volute spring is important and the torque to exert on the screws to move the side members must be important, which also involves adjusting the electric power of the motors for rotating the screws.
  • An object of the present invention is to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks by proposing a transport device that no longer requires a flex-resistant drive shaft and no longer requires protective sleeves.
  • the subject of the invention is a transport device according to claim 1.
  • the drive shaft is designed to withstand only twisting, which can significantly reduce its dimensions and therefore its mass. Therefore, less material is needed to make the tree, which reduces its manufacturing cost and its size.
  • the drive shaft is no longer exposed to the driver of the machine which allows to remove the protective sleeves. Therefore, the dimensions of the screws and those of the electric motors for rotating said screws can be reduced.
  • Another advantage of the invention is also to facilitate the maintenance of the machine and to increase the service life of the parts. Indeed, thanks to the invention, the drive shaft, the displacement screws and the movement slides are protected against all kinds of deposit or projection such as dust or glue when the transport device according to the invention. invention is in the sizing station.
  • the figure 1 illustrates a lower carrier 1 according to the state of the art.
  • the arrow 8 indicates the running direction of the plate elements.
  • Such a conveyor generally comprises two longitudinal frames 1a, 1b parallel and distant from each other. Each frame has two large faces: an inner face and an outer face, the inner face of a frame being turned towards the inner face of the other frame.
  • the frame 1a is located on the opposite side to the conductor and the frame 1b is located on the driver's side.
  • Between the two frames 1 a, 1 b are arranged transversely two parallel cylindrical displacement slides 2, three pairs of parallel displacement screws 3 and a drive shaft 4.
  • the displacement slides 2 are embedded at each of their ends to the racks.
  • each longitudinal spar is movable transversely between the frames 1 a, 1 b, along the slideways 2, this depending on the size of the blanks to be treated.
  • Bearing devices cutouts against the conveyor belts 7 are arranged above certain portions of the longitudinal members 6a, 6b, 6c. These support devices may consist of a series of rollers held down by springs or an endless belt whose lower strand is pressed downwards.
  • each spar is controlled by a pair of parallel screws 3 whose threaded portions are respectively engaged in transverse threaded holes of the spar, which screws are fixed in translation but free in rotation between the frames 1 a, 1 b.
  • one or more electric motors are provided (not shown).
  • Each endless conveyor belt 7 is supported by rollers and a drive pulley 5.
  • the drive pulleys 5 are coaxial and rotatably mounted on their respective spars.
  • the drive shaft 4 is rotatably mounted between the frames 1a, 1b and engaged in the drive pulleys 5.
  • the shaft 4 has a hexagonal section in cooperation of shape with a transverse orifice formed in the axis of each drive pulley 5.
  • each sleeve 4a, 4b is in the form of a volute spring recessed at both ends.
  • the COC sleeve, noted 4a has one end secured to the frame 1a and the other end secured to the spar 6a, that is to say the spar closest to the frame 1a.
  • the sleeve CC, noted 4b has one end secured to the frame 1b and the other end secured to the spar 6b, that is to say the spar closest to the frame 1b.
  • the Figures 2 and 3 illustrate a lower conveyor 10 according to the invention.
  • the arrow 8 indicates the running direction of the plate elements.
  • This carrier comprises two frames 10a, 10b parallel and distant from each other. Between the frames 10a, 10b are arranged two longitudinal longitudinal members 60a, 60b. Each spar 60a, 60b is mounted in sliding connection on a pair of common displacement rails 20 integral with a U-shaped profile 9.
  • the profile 9 extends transversely between the two frames 10a, 10b, each end of the profile 9 being embedded in a respective frame 10a, 10b.
  • the core 9a of the profile is horizontal while the wings 9b, 9c are vertical and turned downwards of the machine.
  • the pair of slide rails 20 is mounted on the web of the profile 9 inside the U and extends transversely between the two frames 10a, 10b.
  • Each slider 20 is a linear guide rail which, in cross section, has a biconcave shape such that a first concavity faces forward and a second concavity is turned towards the rear of the machine (see FIG. figure 3 ).
  • Each spar 60a, 60b has a respective opening 61a, 61b U-shaped in which the profile 9 can pass without interaction.
  • each spar is also provided with a pair of pads 21 in shape cooperation with the pair of sliding rails 20.
  • each pad 21 of a spar 60a, 60b presents in cross section a U-shaped with a horizontal core and two vertical wings turned upwards the machine such that each wing has in cross section a convexity turned towards the inside of the U so that the convexities of a shoe 21 cooperate with the concavities of a displacement slide 20 to form a slide connection.
  • Each spar 60a, 60b supports rollers (not shown), part of which defines a horizontal hard plane 71 for guiding an endless conveyor belt 70.
  • the driving of the belt 70 is provided by a driving pulley 50, which is driven by rotation by a drive shaft 40 of hexagonal section.
  • Each pulley 50 is mounted in sliding connection with the drive shaft 40.
  • the drive shaft 40 extends transversely between the two frames 10a, 10b, each end of the shaft 40 being mounted free to rotate in a respective frame 10a, 10b.
