Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the treatment of flexible, tube-like structures, in particular of bags, with a frame, and with at least one processing the structure on a portion of a movement path acting processing device, wherein below the trajectory of the structure at least in the region of the subspace a space is realized ,
  • the tubular structures are usually those which have at least one opening. Through this opening grippers may enter into the tubular structure and provide in abutment with, for example, vertical edges of the structure for its fixation and transport along the path of movement. Of course, other possibilities of transport are conceivable and are encompassed by the invention. Likewise, the invention is of course not limited to the treatment of bags.
  • bags are processed, these usually come from a flat Hüllstoffbahn, which is equipped by thermal sealing, ultrasound, gluing or similar operations with the respective bag bottoms.
  • These wrapping material webs can, for example, come from a roll, be separated with the help of a respective separating cut and transferred for further processing individually or in groups to the processing device.
  • it is self-evident within the scope of the invention to process pre-made bags.
  • Machining means all processes that change the bag or the structure and / or the product filled therein. This includes not only the simple filling of the bag in question, but also the application of spouts, adapters and valves, as well as the further shaping and contouring of the bag. In addition, editing refers to the attachment of labels, hangers, tabs. Finally, this includes process operations, such as the gassing of the bag from the outside or inside with inert gas, its sterilization and optionally a dust extraction.
  • the GB-A-1 253 311 a designed as a rotary generic device for filling flexible, hose-like structures in which all components necessary for handling, filling and closing were arranged above the trajectory of the structure, whereby the effects of contamination could already be reduced.
  • a disadvantage of a device according to this document is that their training as a round walker makes a correspondingly large foot required, which in turn must be easily contaminated and then laboriously cleaned.
  • the invention is based on the technical problem of further developing such a device for the treatment of flexible, hose-like structures, in particular of bags, so that soiling is reduced to a minimum and the functionality is improved overall.
  • the invention proposes in a generic device, that the frame is designed as at least the sub-span spanning bridge and both the Beartieitungsvorraum and a guide strand for transporting the structure receives and both positioned all above the underlying trajectory of the structure.
  • the free space must be realized within the scope of the invention, at least in the area of the section in which the processing and / or metering devices are located, can of course also be reflected over the entire length of the trajectory. Moreover, the free space in question does not shoot out, that a collecting device is placed on the bottom side or below the free space.
  • the frame carrying the at least one processing device on the partial section is designed as a bridge spanning at least the said partial section.
  • the bridge receives both the relevant processing device and a guide strand for transporting the structures and positions these all parts above the underlying trajectory of the structures.
  • the device according to the invention is therefore characterized, at least on the partial section with the processing device, by a special bridge construction.
  • the frame is formed as a bridge or has such a bridge, which in turn defines both the processing device and the guide strand for transporting the structures, all above the underlying trajectory of the structures.
  • the processing device and the guide strand are positioned above the path of movement and consequently also above the formations, which in turn are generally suspended below the guide strand.
  • the guide strand has at least one gripper per structure. In general, a structure holding gripper pairs are realized on the guide track in each case.
  • the gripper or gripper pairs for holding the structures are connected in a suspended manner to the guide strand, so that the bags automatically undergo their arrangement below the guide strand and thus in the path of movement and define it.
  • For the gripper or gripper pairs usually engage from above into the opening or filling opening of the respective bag and hold it by conditioning at the respective vertical ends under tension to make the processing using the processing device can.
  • attaching the bag using the gripper conceivable, for example by means of brackets, by suction, etc.
  • the bridge or bridge construction rests on columns or bases positioned outside the section.
  • the bridge or bridge construction is arranged substantially horizontally, whereas the bases extend predominantly vertically.
  • the bridge in conjunction with the bases, forms an overall open-ended framework.
  • the bridge and the guide strand run parallel to one another in a superimposed position.
  • the abovementioned bases are each arranged at a distance from the bridge and the guide strand and are usually opposite in pairs in relation to the guide strand or the path of movement of the structures.
  • the bridge and with it the guide strand is placed on a mirror plane with respect to the respective pairs of bases arranged on both sides.
  • the bases are therefore part of the subsection with the processing device or the framework that is overhanging with the several processing devices and is open at the bottom.
  • the bridge and the bases as well as the guideway and consequently the movement path are in each case rectilinear, in a longitudinal direction defined by the movement path.
  • the symmetrical arrangement of the bases with respect to the trajectory, the bridge and the guide strand ensures that the bases are placed on both sides of the trajectory at a predetermined transverse distance from each other.
  • a given longitudinal spacing of the respective bases relative to one another with the respective longitudinal distances and transverse distances preferably being identical in each case in order to simplify the production of the framework.
  • the scaffold also has horizontal struts, which connect the substantially vertically arranged base pairs each with each other. At this horizontal struts, the bridge is suspended and thus provides for the connection of each of the base pairs and connecting them horizontal struts formed among themselves.
  • the structure or bags are usually transported suspended from the gripper pairs along the movement path and insofar the guide track, the processing device and the bridge carrying the two above-mentioned elements are arranged above the bags, the structure can be automatically moved below the movement path of the structures define the desired clearance at least in the area of the leg.
  • the already mentioned collecting device can be placed on the bottom side or below the free space. With the help of this collection device, for example, too much dosed products, dusts, spraying liquid, etc. can be absorbed. As a result, the existing space below the catcher remains virtually completely free of contamination and the catcher can also be easily cleaned by being folded down.
  • a device for the treatment of flexible, tube-like structures, in particular of bags which has at least in the region of a part of its path of movement over a free space extending below the movement path.
  • a bridge spanning the partial section in question is provided as part of a downwardly open framework.
  • the free space is created automatically below the structure or bag respectively below the trajectory, which is followed below and advantageous the catcher.
  • the cleaning time is significantly reduced and the life of the device increased, thus a significant cost advantage over previous embodiments is achieved.
  • an apparatus for the treatment of flexible, hose-like structures is shown with at least one opening. These packs are not limited to pouch 1.
  • the pouches 1 are passed through said device along the path indicated in FIG Fig. 1 shown transport arrows or in the longitudinal direction L and applied in this process by a plurality of processing devices 2.
  • these processing devices 2 are in each case dosing devices or dosing devices which, in the example, meter different components of a ready-made soup into the bag 1 or its filling opening made thereunder.
  • the processing devices 2 are arranged on a partial section 3, for example, a largely circular circumferential path of movement 4. Only on this section 3, the structures or bags 1 are acted upon by the processing devices 2.
  • the bags 1 define the path of movement 4 during their transport.
  • a frame 5 For holding the processing device 2 and the movement path 4, a frame 5 is provided, which in the present case is designed as at least the subsection 3 spanning bridge or bridge structure 5.
  • the frame or the bridge 5 accommodates both the processing devices 2 and a guide strand 6 for transporting the structures or bags.
  • the guide strand 6 defines, in connection with the bags 1, the movement path 4 along which the bags 1 are guided through the device (in a circle).
  • the processing devices 2 and the guide strand 6 are all positioned above the underlying movement path 4 of the structure or bag 1.
  • a bag 1 holding gripper pairs G are connected to the guide strand 6, and hanging.
  • the grippers belonging to the gripper pair G dive, for example, into the opening or filling opening of the respective bags 1 and hold them. In this way, it is automatically achieved that the movement path 4 is arranged below the guide strand 6, which in turn is located below the bridge 5.
  • Both the bridge 5 and the bridge 5 bearing bases 7 run rectified, in the defined by the movement path 4 longitudinal direction L, which coincides with the transport direction of the bag 1 and consequently the trajectory 4.
  • the bases in question 7 are positioned outside the section 3. In fact, on both sides of the trajectory 4 in the same transverse distance from each other placed base pairs 8 from two bases 7th
  • the bases 7 and the base pairs 8 are arranged in a predetermined longitudinal spacing and in the longitudinal direction L, respectively, in the same longitudinal distance from one another according to the exemplary embodiment.
  • each horizontal struts 9 are provided for connecting the bases 7 .
  • a base pair 8 forms, together with the horizontal strut 9 connecting the bases 7, a roof-like ridge 8, 9. All ridges 8, 9 or base pairs 8 are connected to one another in the longitudinal direction L by the bridge 5.
  • the bases 7 form as constituents a framework 5, 7, 8, 9 which overbuilt the subsection 3 in total and opened downwards.
