Description

Etikettieraggregat labeling
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Etikettieraggregat gemäß Oberbegriff Patentanspruch 1.The invention relates to a labeling unit according to the preamble of claim 1.
Etikettieraggregate für Etikettiermaschinen, insbesondere auch für solche umlaufender Bauart zum Etikettieren von Flaschen oder dergleichen Behälter mit Etiketten, insbesondere auch solchen aus Papier, unter Verwendung von Kaltleim sind bekannt. Derartige Aggregate umfassen grundsätzlich wenigstens einen um eine vertikale Aggregatachse umlaufend antreibbaren Paletten- oder Leimsegmentträger, an welchem mehrere jeweils wenigstens eine Etikettenaufnahme- oder anlagefläche bildende Etikettenpaletten oder Leimsegmente vorgesehen sind, und zwar jeweils gesteuert schwenkbar um eine eigene Schwenkachse. Beim Etikettieren werden die Leimsegmente bei jedem Umlauf des Leimsegmentträgers zunächst an einer Belei- mungsstation zur Erzeugung eines Leimauftrags auf ihrer Etikettenan lagefläche und anschließend an einer Etikettenabgabestation vorbeibewegt, und zwar zur Übernahme jeweils wenigstens eines Etiketts, welches dann mit seiner Rückseite an einer mit dem Leimauftrag versehenen Etikettenanlagefläche haftet und hierdurch an seiner Rückseite zugleich auch beleimt wird. Über einen Greiferzylinder werden die beleimten Etiketten jeweils an die an dem Etikettieraggregat vorbei bewegten Behälter übergeben.Labeling units for labeling machines, especially for such a circulating design for labeling bottles or the like containers with labels, especially those made of paper, using cold glue are known. Such units generally comprise at least one around a vertical axis of aggregate driven pallet or glue segment carrier on which a plurality of each at least one Etikettenaufnahme- or contact surface forming label pallets or glue segments are provided, in each case controlled pivotable about its own pivot axis. During labeling, the glue segments are first moved to a lamination station for generating a glue application on their label surface and then moved past a label delivery station each time the glue segment carrier circulates, specifically to accept at least one label, which then has its back on one with the glue application provided label attachment surface adheres and thereby glued on its back at the same time. About a gripper cylinder, the glued labels are each passed to the moving past the labeling over container.
Das Beleimen der Leimsegmente bzw. deren Etikettenanlageflächen erfolgt an der Beleimungsstation herkömmlicher Etikettenaggregate über eine umlaufend angetriebene Leimwalze, deren kreiszylinderförmige Umfangsfläche mittels einer Leimauftragsleiste mit einem Leimfilm versehen wird. Diese Leimwalzen sind konstruktiv aufwendig und teuer. Weiterhin unterliegen sie einer hohen Abnutzung und verursachen außerdem erhebliche Verschmutzungen des Etikettieraggregates sowie der Etikettiermaschine durch Verspritzen von Leim.The gluing of glue segments or their label contact surfaces is carried out at the gluing station conventional label units via a circumferentially driven glue roller whose circular cylindrical peripheral surface is provided by means of a glue application bar with a glue film. These glue rollers are structurally complex and expensive. Furthermore, they are subject to high wear and also cause significant contamination of the labeling and the labeling by spraying glue.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Etikettieraggregat zum Etikettieren von Flaschen oder dergleichen mit Etiketten unter Verwendung von Kaltleim aufzuzeigen, welches diese Nachteile vermeidet. Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist ein Etikettieraggregat entsprechend dem Patentanspruch 1 ausgebildet.The object of the invention is to show a labeling for labeling bottles or the like with labels using cold glue, which avoids these disadvantages. To solve this problem, a labeling according to the patent claim 1 is formed.
Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Etikettieraggregat erfolgt der Leimauftrag auf das wenigstens eine Leimsegmente bzw. auf dessen Etikettenanlagefläche direkt über wenigstens eine an der Bewegungsbahn dieser Etikettenanlagefläche angeordnete Leimauftragsdüse, und zwar ohne die Verwendung einer Leimwalze. Die aus den Leimwalzen bekannter Etikettieraggregate resultierenden Nachteile und Kosten sind somit bei der Erfindung vermieden.In the labeling according to the invention, the glue is applied to the at least one glue segments or on its label contact surface directly via at least one arranged on the movement path of this label contact surface glue application, and without the use of a glue roller. The from the Leimwalzen known labeling units resulting disadvantages and costs are thus avoided in the invention.
Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche. Die Erfindung wird im Folgenden anhand der Figuren an einem Ausführungsbeispiel näher erläutert. Es zeigen:Further developments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims. The invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to the figures of an embodiment. Show it:

In den Figuren ist 1 der Rotor eine Etikettiermaschine 2 umlaufender Bauart zum Etikettieren von Flaschen 3 oder dergleichen Behälter mit Etiketten 4 (z.B. aus Papier) unter Verwendung von Kaltleim. Am Umfang des um eine vertikale Maschinenachse umlaufend angetriebenen Rotors 1 (Pfeil A der Figur 2) sind in bekannter Weise mehrere Behälter- oder Flaschenteller 5 vorgesehen, auf denen während des Etiket- tierens die Flaschen 3 aufrecht stehend angeordnet an dem in der Figur 2 allgemein mit 6 bezeichneten Etikettieraggregat vorbeibewegt werden, welches u. a. einen, nur start vereinfacht dargestellten Greiferzylinder 7 sowie einen Paletten- oder Leimsegmentträger 8 aufweist. Der Greiferzylinder 7 sowie der Leimsegmentträger 8 sind während des Etikettierens ebenfalls um jeweils eine vertikale Achse parallel zur Achse des Rotors 1 umlaufend angetrieben, und zwar synchron mit dem Rotor 1 in der Weise, dass der Greiferzylinder gegenläufig zur Drehrichtung des Rotors 1 , d.h. in Richtung des Pfeils B und der Leimsegmentträger 8 gegenläufig zum Greiferzylinder 7, d.h. in Richtung des Pfeils C umlaufen. Am Umfang des Leimsegmentträger 8 sind mehrere Etikettenpaletten oder Leimsegmente 9 vorgesehen, die jeweils um eine eigene Achse 10 parallel zur vertikalen Drehachse des Leimsegmentträger 8 gesteuert schwenkbar sind, und zwar bei umlaufend angetriebenen Leimsegmentträger 8 z.B. durch wenigstens eine nicht dargestellte Steuerkurve. Die gesteuerte Dreh- oder Schwenkbewegung der Leimsegmente 9 um ihre Achsen 10 ist in der Figur 2 mit dem Doppelpfeil D angedeutet. An der bezogen auf die Achsen 10, die jeweils in gleichen Winkelabständen um die vertikale Drehachse des Leimsegmentträgers 8 verteilt vorgesehen sind und den selben radialen Abstand von der Leimsegmentträgerachse aufweisen, sind die Leimsegmente 9 an ihrer radial außen liegenden Seite mit einer Etikettenanlagefläche 11 ausgebildet. Jede Etikettenanlagefläche 11 ist in Form einer Teilfläche eines Kreiszylinders um eine Achse parallel zur Schwenkachse 10 konvex gekrümmt.In the figures, 1 the rotor is a rotary labeling machine 2 for labeling bottles 3 or the like containers with labels 4 (eg made of paper) using cold glue. On the circumference of the rotor 1 driven around a vertical machine axis (arrow A of FIG. 2), a plurality of container or bottle plates 5 are provided in a known manner, on which the bottles 3 are arranged standing upright on the one generally shown in FIG. 2 during the labeling process With 6 designated labeling unit to be moved past, which includes, inter alia, a simple start shown gripper cylinder 7 and a pallet or adhesive segment carrier 8. The gripper cylinder 7 and the glue segment carrier 8 are also driven in rotation about each vertical axis parallel to the axis of the rotor 1, in synchronism with the rotor 1 in such a way that the gripper cylinder in opposite directions to the direction of rotation of the rotor 1, ie in the direction of the arrow B and the adhesive segment carrier 8 in opposite directions to the gripper cylinder 7, ie in the direction of the arrow C rotate. At the periphery of the glue segment carrier 8 a plurality of label pallets or glue segments 9 are provided which are each controlled about a separate axis 10 parallel to the vertical axis of rotation of the glue segment carrier 8 pivotally, with circumferentially driven adhesive segment carrier 8, for example by at least one control cam, not shown. The controlled rotational or pivotal movement of the glue segments 9 about their axes 10 is indicated in the figure 2 with the double arrow D. At the relative to the axes 10, which are each distributed at equal angular intervals about the vertical axis of rotation of the adhesive segment carrier 8 and have the same radial distance from the glue segment carrier axis, the glue segments 9 are formed on its radially outer side with a label contact surface 11. Each label contact surface 11 is convexly curved in the form of a partial surface of a circular cylinder about an axis parallel to the pivot axis 10.
An der Bewegungsbahn der Leimsegmente 9 sind eine Beleimungsstation 12 sowie ein Etikettenmagazin 13 vorgesehen, wobei letzteres in Drehrichtung C auf die Beleimungsstation 12 erfolgt.At the movement path of the glue segments 9, a gluing station 12 and a label magazine 13 are provided, the latter being effected in the direction of rotation C on the gluing station 12.
Beim Etikettieren erfolgt in bekannter Weise bei umlaufendem Rotor 1 , umlaufendem Greiferzylinder 7 und umlaufendem Leimsegmentträger 8 auf die Etikettenanlagefläche 11 jedes an der Beleimungsstation 12 vorbeibewegten Leimsegmentes ein Kaltleimauftrag. Anschließend wird mit der beleimten Etikettenanlagefläche 11 das jeweils erste, im Etikettenmagazin 13 bereitstehende Etikett an seiner Rückseite entnommen und dabei beleimt. Jedes Beleimte Etikett wird dann über den Greiferzylinder 7 an die jeweilige, auf einem Flaschenteller 5 aufstehende und an dem Etikettieraggregat 6 vorbeibewegte Flasche übergeben und anschließend gegebenenfalls auch unter Drehen des Flaschentellers 5 und damit der betreffenden Flasche 3 um ihre vertikale Flaschenachse sowie durch nicht dargestellte Andrück- und Anbürst- element an die jeweilige Flasche 3 angedrückt.When labeling takes place in a known manner with rotating rotor 1, rotating gripper cylinder 7 and circulating glue segment carrier 8 on the label contact surface 11 of each past the gluing station 12 glue segment a cold glue application. Subsequently, with the glue-coated label contact surface 11, the respective first label, which is provided in the label magazine 13, is removed from its rear side and glued to it. Each glued label is then passed over the gripper cylinder 7 to the respective, upstanding on a bottle plate 5 and past the labeling unit 6 bottle and then optionally with rotation of the bottle plate 5 and thus the relevant bottle 3 about its vertical axis and bottle pressure pin, not shown - And Anbürst- element to the respective bottle 3 pressed.
Das Schwenken der Leimsegmente 9 um ihre Achsen 10 ist beim Vorbeibewegen an der Beleimungsstation 12 sowie auch beim Vorbeibewegen am Etikettenmagazin so gesteuert, dass sich durch die Überlagerung dieser Schwenkbewegung (Doppelpfeil D) und der Drehbewegung des Leimsegmentträgers 8 (Pfeil C) eine resultierende Bewegung für die jeweilige Etikettenanlagefläche 11 ergibt, die ein optimales Belei- men dieser Fläche sowie auch ein optimales Entnehmen der Etiketten aus dem Etikettenmagazin 13 erreicht werden, beispielsweise durch Abwälzen der jeweiligen Etikettenanlagefläche 11 auf dem ersten im Etikettenmagazin 13 bereitstehenden Etikett 4.The pivoting of the glue segments 9 about their axes 10 is controlled when moving past the gluing station 12 as well as when moving past the label magazine that by the superposition of this pivotal movement (double arrow D) and the rotational movement of glue glue carrier 8 (arrow C), a resulting movement for the respective label abutment surface 11 yields optimum lamination of this surface as well as optimal removal of the labels from the label magazine 13, for example by rolling the respective label abutment surface 11 on the first label 4 provided in the label magazine 13.
Eine Besonderheit des Etikettieraggregats 6 bzw. der Beleimungsstation 12 besteht erfindungsgemäß darin, dass der Leimauftrag auf die Etikettenanlageflächen 11 direkt über wenigstens eine Leimauftragsdüse 14 erfolgt, an welcher die Leimsegmente 9 mit ihrer Etikettenanlagefläche 11 vorbeibewegt werden. Die Leimauftragsdüse 14 ist dabei so ausgebildet, dass zumindest derjenige Teil der Etikettenanlagefläche 11 einen Leimauftrag erhält, der von dem anschließend aus dem Etikettenmagazin 13 entnommenen Etikett 4 abgedeckt wird.According to the invention, a special feature of the labeling unit 6 or the gluing station 12 is that the glue is applied to the label contact surfaces 11 directly via at least one glue application nozzle 14, past which the glue segments 9 are moved with their label contact surface 11. The glue application nozzle 14 is designed such that at least that part of the label contact surface 11 receives a glue application, which is covered by the label 4 subsequently removed from the label magazine 13.
Die Versorgung der Leimauftragsdüse 14 mit dem Etikettenleim (Kaltleim) erfolgt aus einem Sammeltank 15 über eine Leimpumpe 16. Bei der dargestellten Ausführungsform ist die Leimauftragsdüse 14 weiterhin mit einem Rücklauf versehen, der über eine Leitung 17 mit dem Sammelbehälter 15 verbunden ist, sodass für eine störungsfreie Arbeitsweise des Etikettieraggregates 6 über die Leimpumpe 16 eine Leimmenge an die Leimauftragsdüse 14 gefördert wird, die größer ist als die auf die Leimsegmente 9 ausgebrachte Leimmenge. Bevorzugt ist die Leimauftragsdüse 14 weiterhin synchron mit dem Umlauf des Leimsegmentträgers 8 so gesteuert, dass über die Leimauftragsdüse 14 nur dann Leim ausgebracht wird, wenn sich die Etikettenanlagefläche 11 eines Leimsegmentes 9 im Wirkungsbereich dieser Düse befindet.The supply of the glue application nozzle 14 with the Etikettenleim (cold glue) takes place from a collection tank 15 via a glue pump 16. In the illustrated embodiment, the glue application nozzle 14 is further provided with a return, which is connected via a line 17 to the collecting container 15, so that for a trouble-free operation of the labeling unit 6 via the glue pump 16 a quantity of glue to the glue application nozzle 14 is promoted, which is greater than the amount of glue applied to the glue segments 9. Preferably, the glue application nozzle 14 is further controlled in synchronism with the circulation of the adhesive segment carrier 8 so that glue is applied via the glue application nozzle 14 only when the label contact surface 11 of a glue segment 9 is within the effective range of this nozzle.
Die Figur 3 zeigt die Leimauftragsdüse 14 nochmals in perspektivischer Einzeldarstellung. Die Leimauftragsdüse 14 ist als Spaltdüse mit einer schmalen bzw. leistenartigen und eine Vielzahl von Düsenöffnungen 18 aufweisenden Vorderseite 14.1 ausgebildet, welche die den Leimauftrag bewirkende Düsenseite oder -fläche bildet und beim Beleimen der jeweiligen Etikettenanlagefläche 11 möglichst dicht benachbart liegt, wobei die von den Düsenöffnungen 18 gebildete Reihe in vertikaler Richtung oder im Wesentlichen in vertikaler Richtung parallel zur Achse des Leimsegmentträgers 8 orientiert ist.FIG. 3 shows the glue application nozzle 14 again in a perspective individual view. The glue application nozzle 14 is formed as a gap nozzle with a narrow or strip-like and a plurality of nozzle openings 18 having the front side 14.1 which forms the glue application causing nozzle side or surface as closely as possible when gluing the respective label contact surface 11, wherein the nozzle openings 18 formed row in the vertical direction or substantially in the vertical direction is oriented parallel to the axis of the adhesive segment carrier 8.
Die Figuren 4 und 5 zeigen eine Leimauftragsdüse 14a, die anstelle der Leimauftragsdüse 14 in der Beleimungsstation 12 verwendet werden kann. Die Leimauftragsdüse 14a unterscheidet sich von der Leimauftragsdüse 14 im Wesentlichen nur dadurch, dass die Düsenvorderseite 14a.1 breiter ausgebildet ist und die Düsenöffnungen 18 dort beispielsweise in mehreren parallelen Reihen, d. h. bei der dargestellten Ausführungsform in vier parallelen vertikalen oder im Wesentlichen vertikalen Reihen angeordnet sind. Weiterhin ist die Düsenvorderseite 14a.1 konkav gewölbt, und zwar angepasst an die Bewegungsbahn, auf der sich die Etikettenanlageflächen 11 an der ihnen benachbarten Düsenvorderseite 14a.1 vorbeibewegen. Die Krümmung der Düsenvorderseite 14a.1 entspricht dabei beispielsweise einer Kreiszylinderfläche mit einem Radius, welcher beispielsweise gleich oder im Wesentlichen gleich dem radialen Abstand ist, den die Düsenvorderseite 14a.1 von der vertikalen Drehachse des Leimsegmentträgers 8 aufweist.Figures 4 and 5 show a glue application nozzle 14a, which can be used in place of the glue application nozzle 14 in the gluing station 12. The glue application nozzle 14a differs from the glue application nozzle 14 essentially only in that the nozzle front side 14a.1 is wider and the nozzle openings 18 are there, for example, in several parallel rows, ie. H. are arranged in the illustrated embodiment in four parallel vertical or substantially vertical rows. Furthermore, the nozzle front side 14a.1 is curved concavely, and adapted to the movement path on which the label abutment surfaces 11 move past the adjacent nozzle front side 14a.1. The curvature of the nozzle front side 14a.1 corresponds, for example, to a circular cylindrical surface having a radius which, for example, is equal to or substantially equal to the radial distance that the nozzle front side 14a.1 has from the vertical axis of rotation of the glue segment carrier 8.
Beispielsweise durch entsprechende Ausbildung der Düsenöffnungen 18 und/oder durch entsprechende Steuerung der Leimpumpe 16 und/oder durch entsprechende Steuerung der Leimausgabe aus jeder einzelnen Düsenöffnung 18 kann erreicht werden, dass sich an der Düsenvorderseite 14a.1 ein Leimfilm bildet, der dann durch zumindest teilweises Übertragen auf die vorbeibewegte Etikettenanlagefläche 11 dort den erforderlichen Leimauftrag bewirkt.For example, by appropriate design of the nozzle openings 18 and / or by appropriate control of the glue pump 16 and / or by appropriate Control of the glue output from each individual nozzle opening 18 can be achieved that forms a glue film on the nozzle front side 14a.1, which then effected by at least partial transfer to the past moving label contact surface 11 there the required glue application.
Die Figur 6 zeigt eine Leimauftragsdüse 14b, die ebenfalls anstelle der Leimauftragsdüse 14 in der Beleimungsstation 12 verwendet werden kann. Die Leimauftragsdüse 14b besteht u.a. aus einer um eine vertikale Achse umlaufend angetriebenen Transferrolle 19 und aus einem Leimauftragselement 20, mit welchem ein Leimauftrag auf die Kreiszylinderfläche der Transferrolle 19 erfolgt. Das Leimauftragselement 20 kann seinerseits als Düse ausgebildet sein, und zwar beispielsweise ähnlich den Leimauftragsdüsen 14 oder 14a. Der Durchmesser der Transferrolle 19 ist dabei so gewählt, dass der Umfang dieser Rolle höchstens gleich, bevorzugt aber kleiner ist als die Abwicklung, die die Etikettenanlageflächen 11 in der Achsrichtung senkrecht zu den Schwenkachsen 10 aufweisen, sodass sich die Transferrolle 19, die beim Beleimen der Leimsegmente 9 gegen deren Etikettenanlageflächen 11 anliegt, an jeder Etikettenanlagefläche 11 wenigstens einmal, bevorzugt aber mehrmals abwälzt.FIG. 6 shows a glue application nozzle 14b, which can likewise be used in place of the glue application nozzle 14 in the gluing station 12. The glue application nozzle 14b is u.a. from a transfer roller 19 which is driven peripherally around a vertical axis and from a glue application element 20 with which glue is applied to the circular cylinder surface of the transfer roller 19. The glue application element 20 may in turn be formed as a nozzle, for example, similar to the glue application nozzles 14 or 14 a. The diameter of the transfer roller 19 is chosen so that the circumference of this role at most equal, but preferably smaller than the settlement that have the label abutment surfaces 11 in the axial direction perpendicular to the pivot axes 10, so that the transfer roller 19, the gluing the Glue segments 9 abuts against the label abutment surfaces 11, at each label abutment surface 11 at least once, but preferably several times.
Die axiale Länge der Transferwalze 19 ist beispielsweise gleich oder nur geringfügig größer als die Abmessung, die die Etikettenanlagefläche 11 in der Achsrichtung der Leimsegmentträgerachse aufweisen.The axial length of the transfer roller 19 is, for example, equal to or only slightly larger than the dimension which the label abutment surface 11 has in the axial direction of the glue segment carrier axis.
Die Erfindung wurde voranstehend an Ausführungsbeispielen beschrieben. Es versteht sich, dass zahlreiche Änderungen sowie Abwandlungen möglich sind, ohne dass dadurch der der Erfindung zugrunde liegende Erfindungsgedanke verlassen wird.The invention has been described above by means of exemplary embodiments. It is understood that numerous changes and modifications are possible without thereby departing from the inventive concept underlying the invention.
So gehört es beispielsweise ebenfalls zum Umfang der vorliegenden Erfindung, zumindest eine Düsenöffnung 18, bzw. die Leimabgabe aus dieser mindestens einen Düsenöffnung 18 separat und unabhängig von den anderen Düsenöffnungen 19 steuerbar auszuführen, wobei beispielsweise Abgabemengen, Abgabedauer, Abgabezeitpunkte und/oder Abgabeintensität gesteuert oder geregelt vorgegeben werden können. Durch die Möglichkeit zur gezielten Ansteuerung mindestens einer Düsenöffnung 18 wird es ermöglicht, die Leimabgabe durch die Beleimungsstation 12 in geeigneter Art und Weise auch an verschiedenste Etikettieraufgaben anzupassen.For example, it is also within the scope of the present invention, at least one nozzle opening 18, or the glue delivery from this at least one nozzle opening 18 separately and controllable independently of the other nozzle openings 19 controllable, for example, controlled discharge quantities, delivery duration, delivery times and / or delivery intensity or can be specified regulated. The possibility of targeted control of at least one nozzle opening 18 makes it possible to adapt the glue delivery by the gluing station 12 in a suitable manner to a wide variety of labeling tasks.
Dabei ist es z.B. auch vorgesehen, den Leim gesteuert in der Form von Spritzpunkten auf die Etikettenanlagefläche aufzubringen, wobei durch diese Spritzpunkte ge- zielt und ausschließlich die Etikettenanlagefläche 11 der Leimsegmente 9 mit Leim versehen wird, und Verschmutzungen weitestgehend vermieden werden. It is also intended, for example, to apply the glue in the form of injection points to the label contact surface in a controlled manner. aims and only the label contact surface 11 of the glue segments 9 is provided with glue, and soiling is largely avoided.
