Definitions

  • Method for strapping a packaged product with a strapping machine comprising a motor drive with a drive shaft which rotates through 360 ° within a strapping cycle and thereby controls working components comprising at least one clamping device for the band to be strapped
  • Strapping machines of the type described are known and serve to pack a packaged goods, for example a catalog stack, with a plastic band, ie to span it.
  • a plastic band ie to span it.
  • an existing plastic strapping band is guided around the packaged goods, stretched back, clamped and cut and welded by heating by means of a welding device, after which the strapped packaged goods are conveyed from the strapping machine and fed new packaged to umNeilldes.
  • a strapping machine has a tape guide frame, in which the strapping is injected via a Einsch manvorraum, and a tape guide in the area below the packaged in which the einz collectende tape out as well as the leading end of the tape is caught.
  • the strapping can be brought out of the tape guide frame and in direct contact with the packaged goods for retensioning.
  • a clamping device comprising two separate clamping jaws, one of which clamps the leading end of the tape and the other after retightening the other end of the tape, both adjacent to an overlapping region in which the welding takes place.
  • a welding device comprising a welding tongue, which is moved to heat the tape ends in the overlap region between them, as well as a pressing device and a counter-pressure plate, wherein the pressing device is moved from below against the counter-pressure plate, between them are the heated, to be welded tape ends.
  • the control of the movable functional components via a drive motor or driven by this drive shaft, with which the various functional components are directly or indirectly coupled in motion.
  • cam disk couplings are used, that is, on the drive shaft one or more cams are arranged on or on the corresponding driver sections of a functional component run and be moved in accordance with the cam profile accordingly.
  • the drive shaft once turns 360 °.
  • the new packaged goods already in the strapping machine ie in the tape guide frame
  • the movable tape guide is in the retracted work position, so can lead the tape, the strapping itself is already shot into the tape guide frame and caught with its leading end.
  • the drive motor is stationary, so the drive shaft does not turn.
  • the engine is started, it begins the so-called flow.
  • the motor drives to actuate the right jaw of the clamping device via the drive shaft so that it clamps the leading end of the tape.
  • the motor or the drive shaft is because the remindspannvorgang is performed by a separate rinsed. Only then does the motor or drive shaft start again in order to operate in the next step the left jaw to clamp the band at the then cut other end, and to operate for welding the other functional components (in this case, the tape guide off the work area is moved, the welder is moved into the work area, after heating it is moved out again and the pressing device is moved against the pressure plate to perform the welding).
  • the pressing device is moved back into the starting position while the engine drive is still running and the printing plate is moved out of the working area so that the now strapped packaged goods are released and the packaged goods change can take place.
  • the counterpressure plate is again moved together with the tape guide to the working position, the motor stops, its working cycle is finished. Then follows only the shooting of the strapping for the next Umreifungsvorgang.
  • the motor cycle is finished with the second stop, the motor or the drive shaft has once rotated 360 °. Then, the new motor cycle begins, namely when the motor turns again briefly to actuate the right jaw, and immediately stops again, since then the rainspannvorgang begins as described above.
  • the invention is therefore based on the problem to provide a method that allows a faster and less wear leading strapping.
  • the clamping of the leading end of the tape, so the operation of the right jaw in the time of Packgut lymphos is placed with particular advantage.
  • this or the drive operates continuously, it stops only once, namely at the end of the Umreifungszyklus or this is finished with the engine stop.
  • the right jaw In the normal position, ie at the beginning of a new Umreifungszyroses, the right jaw is already operated and closed, that is, the leading end is already clamped.
  • the motor is therefore started and stopped only once within a cycle, otherwise it rotates continuously by 360 °.
  • the right clamping device is actuated, so that the basic position is taken in the leading end of the tape is already clamped .
  • the engine is inevitably less stressed because it does not start and brake twice within a cycle, but only once, also a faster operation is possible because with the elimination of a drive and braking time savings. As a result, the machine throughput can be increased.
  • the removal of the strapped packaged goods preferably begins immediately after the drive shaft controlled via the outward movement of a tape welding pressure plate from the tape guide area and open clamping device, preferably in the remaining rotational angle interval of the drive shaft from 160 °, preferably from / to 200 °. From this angle of rotation, ie by 160 ° or z. B. 200 °, the counter-pressure plate, which is from the welding forth between the welded strip portion and the packaged, pulled out of this area, the packaged goods is released so that it can then be deducted immediately. In the remaining rotation angle interval between at least 160 ° (or for example 200 °) to 360 ° shaft rotation then sufficient time remains for the Packgut lymph, which should still start as early as possible within this interval.
  • the shooting of the new strapping then takes place, for example, from about 300 ° rotation, so that still sufficient angle of rotation remains to operate the right clamping device and to clamp the leading end of the tape, after which the rotation cycle is completed.
  • the motor will stop, the new turning or strapping cycle will not start until it is re-started when the operation of the left jaw is required, then continue to run continuously until the end of the cycle.
  • the large number of controlled activities of the functional elements thus takes place in the rotation angle interval between 0 ° to z. B. 160 ° or 200 ° instead, while over the remaining rotation angle interval is obtained sufficient time to perform the package change can.
  • Fig. 1 shows a strapping machine 1 according to the invention, wherein only essential components are shown here for reasons of clarity.
  • a welding head 2 comprising a clamping device 3 with a right jaw 4 and a left jaw 5, which, as will be discussed below, serve to fix the band. Both are biased by a spring 6 and run over rollers 8, 9 on the outer surface of a pressing device 10 which is vertically movable.
  • the outside of the pressing device 10 is provided in its lower part on both sides with a cam structure 11, which follow the rollers 8, 9, about which the movement, here pivoting of the jaws 4, 5 for pressing or releasing the tape takes place.
  • the pressing device 10 itself is vertically movable as described.
  • the control takes place via a drive 12, of which only the drive shaft 13 is shown here, which is coupled to a motor not shown in detail.
  • a drive 12 of which only the drive shaft 13 is shown here, which is coupled to a motor not shown in detail.
  • cams 14 are arranged, of which only one is shown here, which has a guide groove 15, in which an impeller 16 engages, which in turn is connected to the pressing device 10. According to the shape of the guide groove, the vertical movement is controlled upon rotation of the cam 14.
  • a welding device 23 comprising a Welding tongue 24 is provided, which is not shown here for reasons of clarity, but in the area between the pressing device 10 and counter-pressure plate 19 is retracted or is movable from this area.
  • the functional components "belt guiding device 17, counter-pressure plate 19, welding tongue 24" can likewise be actuated in a corresponding manner via the drive 12, that is to say they are likewise suitably coupled with optionally one respective cam disk.
  • the plurality of cams are arranged one behind the other on the drive shaft 13.
  • the movement of the individual functional components is preferably carried out by pivoting the same, whereby two functional components can be coupled in motion, as shown by the example of the pressing device 10 and the two jaws 3, 4, which are moved over the vertical position of the pressing device 10 and thus the position of the curved sections 11 ,
  • a welding head which is designed in the manner described, or a strapping machine is for example off DE 103 23 171 B4 known.
  • the general drive 12 and thus the movement of the functional components actuated over here, as well as the operation of further functional components such as the insertion device for feeding tape into a tape guide frame or the device for conveying and feeding the packaged goods, which are all not shown in detail here, is now designed in such a way that that within a Umreifungszyklus the motor or the drive 12 starts only once, rotates 360 ° and brakes again.
  • the process of the invention is based on the Fig. 2-6 and 7 seen.
  • Fig. 2 shows as a partial section of the strapping machine 1, the welding head 2 in the normal position at the end of a Umreifungszyklus or at the beginning of a subsequent Umreifungszyklus.

  • the clamping head 22 of the jaw 4 can be seen on the tape 20 and clamped against the counter-pressure plate 19.
  • the left jaw 5, in the starting position according to Fig. 2 was still solved, in the clamping position, that is, the clamping head 27 also acts on the belt 20, so this is fixed in two places.
  • the clamping jaw 5 was also actuated via its movement coupling to the pressing device 10, which was controlled via the rotating drive 12 or the rotating drive shaft 13 and the cam plate 14.
  • the tape guide device 17 moved out of the work area, as in Fig. 3 shown, then the welding device 23 pivots with its welding tongue 24 in the working area between the overlapping tape ends, namely the leading end of the tape 21 and the rear tape end 25, which is cut off via a suitable cutting edge 26 on the pressing device 10.
  • the two band ends to be overlapped are melted over the welding tongue 24.
  • Fig. 4 now shows the Versch volunteer ein in which the welding device 23 together with welding tongue 24 after melting was driven out of the work area, whereas the pressing was started up and presses against the platen 19, the two belt ends 21, 25 while pressing against each other.
  • the counter-pressure plate 19 as well as the belt guiding device 17 is brought into the working position via the drive 12, the pressing device 10 is moved down again, so that new strapping 20 in the tape guide frame can be injected, as in Fig. 6 shown.
  • the right jaw 4 is brought back into the clamping position on the still rotating drive 12, after which immediately stops the drive 12, his cycle is finished.
  • the then assumed configuration or position of the functional components corresponds to the end position, but at the same time also the starting position according to Fig. 2 , The Umreifungszyklus ends with the drive stop, a new begins with the immediately following restraint of the strap 20 to the conveyed new packaged goods.
