Definitions
- the invention relates to a transfer device for transferring a folding box from a magazine receiving them in a flat state to a conveying device with simultaneous straightening, with a holding device which takes over the folding carton and is carried during the transfer and which can be moved on a cycloidal trajectory having a plurality of reversing points and intervening curve bends.
- Such a transfer device is used, for example, in a cartoning machine, in which it is necessary to first erect a folded box received in a magazine in a flat collapsed condition prior to feeding the product to be packaged and to make it available in a conveyor device usually designed as a belt or chain conveyor.
- each carton by means of a holding device, which is designed in particular in the form of a suction device and on a rotating, running on a sun gear planetary part of a removal device is arranged, taken from the magazine and supplied with this on a cycloid trajectory of the conveyor and stored in a cell formed between two fingers arranged there.
- a erecting member mounted on the planetary part is brought into contact with the folding box, whereby it is erected.
- the invention has for its object to provide a transfer device of the type mentioned, which has a structurally simple structure and ensures reliable transfer of the carton to the conveyor.
- the planetary gear usually used in prior art transfer devices is replaced by a lever mechanism.
- Starting point is a basic lever that is continuous and at a steady speed is rotated by a suitable drive.
- Mounted on the base lever two lever pairs constructed of two levers, each lever is articulated on both sides.
- the first lever pair is assigned a first cam roller which engages with a first cam.
- the second lever pair is assigned a second cam roller, which is in engagement with a second cam.
- the free end of the second lever of the first lever pair is pivotally mounted via a further joint with a holding block on which the holding device is mounted.
- the holding device comprises a conventional vacuum cleaner, which can be activated by applying negative pressure.
- the pivotally mounted guide member which has a linear guide, such as a rail or a guide groove.
- a slide member is formed, which sits on the linear guide and along the linear guide is movable.
- the design of the guide member with a linear guide makes it possible to superimpose the movements of the individual components so that the holding device performs a linear movement perpendicular to the surface of the cartons folded in the magazine at the reversal point of the cycloid web on the carton magazine, whereby a secure removal of the lower Folding box of Faltschachtelstapels guaranteed and striking the removed carton is reliably avoided on the magazine.
- a similar linear movement can also be in a reversal point of the cycloid trajectory near a counter sucker and / or at the reversal point of the Cycloid traction can be achieved when storing the erected carton on the conveyor.
- the free ends of the second lever and the fourth lever are connected to each other via the other joint, so that the two pairs of levers form a joint quadrangle.
- the fourth lever of the second pair of levers is pivotally connected to the guide part via a guide joint, while the second lever of the first pair of levers is pivotably connected in the aforementioned manner via the further joint to the holding block.
- This embodiment has the advantage that the movements imposed by the two control cams on the respective pairs of levers are independent of one another, so that an even better adaptation of the movements and in particular a separation of the radial movement of the holding device from the rotational movement is provided. This allows the linear guide to stand still for a short period of time so that a true linear picking movement for the carton out of the magazine is achieved.
- the guide member is pivotable about an axis which is parallel to the drive axis of the base lever. Preferably, these two axes coincide, so that the guide member is pivotable about the drive axis of the base lever.
- the holding device is not directly seated on the holding block, but that a preferably in the longitudinal direction of the drive axis and extending parallel thereto arm is arranged, on which the holding device is mounted and which runs parallel to a pivot axis of the holding block.
- FIG. 1 shows the basic arrangement of a transfer device 10 within a cartoning machine.
- the cartoning machine has a circulating conveying device 30, for example in the form of a chain conveyor, which has a plurality of spaced-apart fingers 31, between which cells 32 are formed.
- a erected folding box FS can be used in each cell 32 in each case an erected folding box FS can be used.
- the conveying device 30 is filled from above with folding boxes, with their conveying direction F extending substantially horizontally.
- FIG. 1 shows in the upper right representation of the state of the holding device in which the teat 25.1 is in the upper reversal point P 1 , which is associated with a magazine M, in which the cartons FS are received in flat folded state in a stacked form.
- the teat 25.1 When the teat 25.1 with the lower carton FS of the folding carton stack of the magazine M comes into abutment, the teat 25.1 is activated and thereby the bottom folding box FS of the magazine M is gripped. Subsequently, the teat 25.1 is moved together with the folding box M on a first curve arc of the cycloid web Z in the direction of the second reversal point P 2 , in which a Aufzieh- or counter sucker 29 is arranged. When the 2nd reversal point P 2 is reached ( FIG.
- the folding box FS is brought into abutment with the stationary Aufzieh- or counter sucker 29, whereby the carton M is pulled apart on further movement of the teat 25.1 on the cycloid web Z and a resulting removal of the sucker 29 by a small amount ,
- the folding box M can be inserted from above into the cell 32 of the conveying device 30 formed between two fingers 31, the orientation of the cycloid path Z relative to the conveying device 30 having the advantage that the teat 25.1 and thus the Folding box FS when approaching the 3rd reversal point P 3 , in which the transfer of the carton takes place, has a directed in the conveying direction F movement component.
- the holding device 24 After delivery of the folding box to the conveying device 30, the holding device 24 returns to the magazine M with the sucker 25.1 on a third curve arc of the cycloid path Z ( FIG. 1 , right upper illustration), whereupon the cycle runs again.
- FIG. 2 shows a perspective view of a first embodiment of the transfer device 10, which is designed as a lever mechanism.
- the FIGS. 3 to 7 show the mutual arrangement of the levers of the transfer device 10 in different positions on the cycloid trajectory Z.
- the kinematic structure of the transfer device is shown schematically in FIG FIG. 8 shown.
- the first pair of levers 12 comprises a first lever 12.1, which is mounted on the base lever 11 via a first joint 15, wherein a pivot axis B 1 of the first joint 15 extends parallel to the drive axis A.
- the first lever 12.1 carries a first cam roller 14, which has a first cam track K 1 (see FIG FIG. 1 ) is engaged.
- the first lever 12.1 is connected via a second joint 16, whose pivot axis B 2 also parallel to the drive axis A, hingedly connected to a second lever 12.2.
- the second lever pair 13 comprises a third lever 13.1 which is connected to a third joint 19 (in FIG FIG. 2 not visible) hingedly connected to the base lever 11, wherein a pivot axis of the third joint 19 preferably coincides with the pivot axis B 1 of the first joint 15.
- the third lever 13.1 carries a second cam roller 18, which with a second cam track K 2 (see FIG. 1 ) is engaged. At its end remote from the third joint 19, the third lever 13.1 is pivotally connected to a fourth lever 21 via a fourth joint 21 whose pivot axis B 3 extends parallel to the drive axis A.
- the free end of the second lever 12.2 facing away from the second joint 16 and the free end of the fourth lever 13.2 facing away from the fourth joint 21 are articulated to one another via another joint 33 whose pivot axis B 4 extends parallel to the drive axis A.
- the two pairs of levers 12 and 13 and the four levers 12.1, 12.2, 13.1 and 13.2 thus form an articulated quadrilateral 34 or a parallelogram linkage.

- the support block 22 carries a transverse projection 20, to which a in the longitudinal direction of the drive axis A, but offset to this extending arm 23 is mounted, which carries at its front free end, the holding device 24, the one extending perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the arm 23 extending rod-shaped holder 25.2, at the upper free end of the teat 25.1 is arranged.
- the holding block 22 has a slide member 28 which sits longitudinally displaceable on a linear guide 27, as in FIG. 2 indicated by the double arrow V.
- the linear guide 27 is part of a guide member 26 which is pivotally mounted on the drive shaft 17 and thus can perform a pivot about the drive axis A.
- FIGS. 3 to 7 show the transfer device according to the invention in different states along the cycloid trajectory Z. It can be seen that the teat 25.1 of the holding device 24 is directed in all states radially outward.
- the transfer device 10 is shown with only a joint square and a sucker. However, it is also possible to equip the transfer device with a plurality of suckers which are distributed over the circumference and each have a joint quadrilateral.
- the cam rollers of all joint squares can be performed in the same curved paths K 1 and K 2 .
- FIG. 9 shows one FIG. 8 corresponding schematic representation of the kinematic structure of the transfer device according to a second embodiment.
- This second embodiment is in accordance with essential elements according to the first embodiment FIG. 8 and differs from this among other things in that the first joint 15 of the first lever 12.1 and the third joint 19 of the third lever 13.1 are now formed at different points of the base lever 11.

Eine derartige Übergabevorrichtung findet beispielsweise in einer Kartoniermaschine Verwendung, bei der es notwendig ist, vor Zuführung des zu verpackenden Produktes zunächst eine in einem Magazin in flach zusammengelegtem Zustand aufgenommene Faltschachtel aufzurichten und in einer üblicherweise als Band- oder Kettenförderer ausgebildeten Fördervorrichtung zur Verfügung zu stellen.Such a transfer device is used, for example, in a cartoning machine, in which it is necessary to first erect a folded box received in a magazine in a flat collapsed condition prior to feeding the product to be packaged and to make it available in a conveyor device usually designed as a belt or chain conveyor.
Wie es beispielsweise aus der
Es hat sich gezeigt, dass die Verwendung eines einfachen Planetengetriebes in der Übergabevorrichtung nicht ausreicht, um eine über längere Zeit betriebssichere Übergabe der Faltschachtel an die Fördervorrichtung zu gewährleisten. Es ist deshalb versucht worden, den Verlauf der Zykloidenbahn zu optimieren, indem beispielsweise das Sonnenrad taktweise vor- und zurückbewegt wird oder indem ein 2. Sonnenrad mit einem weiteren Planetenteil angeordnet wird, wobei die beiden Sonnenräder relativ zueinander verstellbar sind und somit die Bewegungen in gewünschter Weise angepasst werden können. Gemäß der
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Übergabevorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die einen konstruktiv einfachen Aufbau besitzt und eine zuverlässige Übergabe der Faltschachtel an die Fördervorrichtung gewährleistet.The invention has for its object to provide a transfer device of the type mentioned, which has a structurally simple structure and ensures reliable transfer of the carton to the conveyor.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Übergabevorrichtung der genannten Art gelöst, die folgende Merkmale aufweist:
- es ist ein Grundhebel vorgesehen, der eine kontinuierlich, gleichförmige Drehbewegung ausführt,
- es ist ein 1. Hebelpaar vorgesehen, das einen 1. Hebel, der über ein 1. Gelenk schwenkbar am Grundhebel gelagert ist, und einen 2. Hebel aufweist, der über ein 2. Gelenk schwenkbar am 1. Hebel gelagert ist,
- es ist ein 2. Hebelpaar vorgesehen, das einen 3. Hebel, der über ein 3. Gelenk schwenkbar am Grundhebel gelagert ist, und einen 4. Hebel aufweist, der über ein 4. Gelenk schwenkbar am 3. Hebel gelagert ist,
- es ist ein Halteblock vorgesehen, an dem die Haltevorrichtung angebracht ist und der an einem weiteren Gelenk schwenkbar mit dem 2. Hebel des 1. Hebelpaars verbunden ist,
- es ist ein schwenkbar gelagertes Führungsteil vorgesehen, das eine Linearführung, beispielsweise eine Schiene oder eine Führungsnut aufweist,
- an dem Halteblock ist ein Schlittenteil ausgebildet, das auf der Linearführung sitzt und längs der Linearführung bewegbar ist,
- das 1. Hebelpaar weist eine 1. Kurvenrolle auf, die mit einer 1. Steuerkurve in Eingriff steht, und
- das 2. Hebelpaar weist eine 2. Kurvenrolle auf, die mit einer 2. Steuerkurve in Eingriff steht.
- it is provided a basic lever, which performs a continuous, uniform rotational movement,
- a first lever pair is provided which has a first lever, which is pivotably mounted on the base lever via a first joint, and a second lever which is pivotably mounted on the first lever via a second joint,
- a second pair of levers is provided which has a third lever, which is pivotally mounted on the base lever via a third joint, and a fourth lever, which is mounted pivotably on the third lever via a fourth joint,
- there is provided a holding block on which the holding device is mounted and which is pivotally connected to the second lever of the first lever pair at a further joint,

Erfindungsgemäß wird das bei vorbekannten Übergabevorrichtungen üblicherweise verwendete Planetengetriebe durch ein Hebelgetriebe ersetzt. Ausgangspunkt ist ein Grundhebel, der kontinuierlich und mit gleichmäßiger Geschwindigkeit mittels eines geeigneten Antriebs gedreht wird. An dem Grundhebel zwei aus jeweils zwei Hebeln aufgebaute Hebelpaare gelagert, wobei jeder Hebel beidseitig gelenkig gelagert ist. Um den Hebeln während des Durchlaufens der gesamten Zykloidenbahn definierte Bewegungen und Relativpositionen aufzuzwingen, ist dem 1. Hebelpaar eine 1. Kurvenrolle zugeordnet, die mit einer 1. Steuerkurve in Eingriff steht. Zusätzlich ist dem 2. Hebelpaar eine 2. Kurvenrolle zugeordnet, die mit einer 2. Steuerkurve in Eingriff steht. Das freie Ende des 2. Hebels des 1. Hebelpaars ist über ein weiteres Gelenk mit einem Halteblock schwenkbar gelagert, an dem die Haltevorrichtung angebracht ist. Vorzugsweise umfasst die Haltevorrichtung einen üblichen Sauger, der durch Aufbringung von Unterdruck aktivierbar ist.According to the planetary gear usually used in prior art transfer devices is replaced by a lever mechanism. Starting point is a basic lever that is continuous and at a steady speed is rotated by a suitable drive. Mounted on the base lever two lever pairs constructed of two levers, each lever is articulated on both sides. In order to impose defined movements and relative positions on the levers during the passage of the entire cycloidal trajectory, the first lever pair is assigned a first cam roller which engages with a first cam. In addition, the second lever pair is assigned a second cam roller, which is in engagement with a second cam. The free end of the second lever of the first lever pair is pivotally mounted via a further joint with a holding block on which the holding device is mounted. Preferably, the holding device comprises a conventional vacuum cleaner, which can be activated by applying negative pressure.
Für die Steuerung der Schwenkbewegung des Halteblocks um das weitere Gelenk ist das schwenkbar gelagerte Führungsteil vorgesehen, das eine Linearführung, beispielsweise eine Schiene oder eine Führungsnut aufweist. An dem Halteblock ist ein Schlittenteil ausgebildet, das auf der Linearführung sitzt und längs der Linearführung bewegbar ist. Die Ausgestaltung des Führungsteils mit einer Linearführung ermöglicht es, die Bewegungen der einzelnen Bauteile so zu überlagern, dass die Haltevorrichtung im Umkehrpunkt der Zykloidenbahn an dem Faltschachtel-Magazin eine lineare Bewegung senkrecht zur Oberfläche der im Magazin gestapelten Faltschachteln ausführt, wodurch eine sichere Entnahme der unteren Faltschachtel des Faltschachtelstapels gewährleistet und ein Anschlagen der entnommenen Faltschachtel an dem Magazin zuverlässig vermieden ist. Eine gleichartige lineare Bewegung kann auch in einem Umkehrpunkt der Zykloidenbahn nahe eines Gegensaugers und/oder im Umkehrpunkt der Zykloidenbahn bei Ablage der aufgerichteten Faltschachtel auf der Fördervorrichtung erreicht werden.For the control of the pivoting movement of the holding block to the other joint, the pivotally mounted guide member is provided which has a linear guide, such as a rail or a guide groove. On the holding block, a slide member is formed, which sits on the linear guide and along the linear guide is movable. The design of the guide member with a linear guide makes it possible to superimpose the movements of the individual components so that the holding device performs a linear movement perpendicular to the surface of the cartons folded in the magazine at the reversal point of the cycloid web on the carton magazine, whereby a secure removal of the lower Folding box of Faltschachtelstapels guaranteed and striking the removed carton is reliably avoided on the magazine. A similar linear movement can also be in a reversal point of the cycloid trajectory near a counter sucker and / or at the reversal point of the Cycloid traction can be achieved when storing the erected carton on the conveyor.
In einer möglichen Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass die freien Enden des 2. Hebels und des 4. Hebels über das weitere Gelenk miteinander verbunden sind, so dass die beiden Hebelpaare ein Gelenk-Viereck bilden.In one possible embodiment of the invention can be provided that the free ends of the second lever and the fourth lever are connected to each other via the other joint, so that the two pairs of levers form a joint quadrangle.
Alternativ kann vorgesehen sein, dass der 4. Hebel des 2. Hebelpaars über ein Führungsgelenk gelenkig mit dem Führungsteil verbunden ist, während der 2. Hebel des 1. Hebelpaars in genannter Weise über das weitere Gelenk schwenkbar mit dem Halteblock verbunden ist. Diese Ausgestaltung hat den Vorteil, dass die durch die beiden Steuerkurven den jeweiligen Hebelpaaren aufgezwungenen Bewegungen unabhängig voneinander sind, so dass eine noch bessere Anpassung der Bewegungen und insbesondere eine Trennung der radialen Bewegung der Haltevorrichtung von der Drehbewegung gegeben ist. Dies ermöglicht es, dass die Linearführung für einen kurzen Zeitraum stehenbleibt, so dass eine echte lineare Entnahmebewegung für die Faltschachtel aus dem Magazin erreicht ist.Alternatively, it may be provided that the fourth lever of the second pair of levers is pivotally connected to the guide part via a guide joint, while the second lever of the first pair of levers is pivotably connected in the aforementioned manner via the further joint to the holding block. This embodiment has the advantage that the movements imposed by the two control cams on the respective pairs of levers are independent of one another, so that an even better adaptation of the movements and in particular a separation of the radial movement of the holding device from the rotational movement is provided. This allows the linear guide to stand still for a short period of time so that a true linear picking movement for the carton out of the magazine is achieved.
Das Führungsteil ist um eine Achse schwenkbar, die parallel zur Antriebsachse des Grundhebels verläuft. Vorzugsweise fallen diese beiden Achsen zusammen, so dass das Führungsteil um die Antriebsachse des Grundhebels schwenkbar ist.The guide member is pivotable about an axis which is parallel to the drive axis of the base lever. Preferably, these two axes coincide, so that the guide member is pivotable about the drive axis of the base lever.
In einer möglichen Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die Haltevorrichtung nicht unmittelbar am Halteblock sitzt, sondern dass ein vorzugsweise in Längsrichtung der Antriebsachse und parallel dazu verlaufender Arm angeordnet ist, auf dem die Haltevorrichtung angebracht ist und der parallel zu einer Schwenkachse des Halteblocks verläuft.In a possible embodiment of the invention it is provided that the holding device is not directly seated on the holding block, but that a preferably in the longitudinal direction of the drive axis and extending parallel thereto arm is arranged, on which the holding device is mounted and which runs parallel to a pivot axis of the holding block.
