  • the clip which may be made of plastic or cardboard, is applied to the upper part of the article, for example to the neck of the bottle, so that the clip rests on the shoulder of the article or bottles.
  • a banderole is used as the first packaging means, it is preferably wrapped around the largest circumference of the articles, for example around the belly of bottles.
  • the application of the first packaging means to the articles takes place continuously and preferably approximately in synchronization with the conveying movement of the articles.
  • a prefabricated film can also be used as the first packaging material.
  • a film with pre-punched openings can be used, which can be slipped over the articles or their neck areas and then separated at defined locations.
  • This plastic film has elastic properties, so that the openings are slightly stretched when slipping over and then rest so close to the article that they no longer slip and include the articles firmly and / or under bias.
  • this first packaging means is secured by the above-described extension of the article against slipping upwards.
  • this plastic film may be a continuous film which is unwound from a roll during the packaging of the articles. This role may, for example, be located above the articles during the packaging process.
  • a known cutting device For singling any number of articles in packaging units, in particular a known cutting device can be used.
  • a cutting device In the case of the packaging units, at least two articles are preferably always combined via the first packaging means in the form of the film.

  • the packaging units are brought to this second packaging means.
  • By turning about 90 ° to the transport direction, which optionally by a gripper arm a so-called.
  • Pusher by a suitable turntable in the course of a horizontal promotion or through other suitable measures or facilities can be made.
  • the containers can, for example, be wrapped with a shrink film and combined in this way to form a larger packaging unit.
  • the present invention describes a method and a packaging machine for carrying out this method, which make it possible to produce containers with a first and a second packaging means in a continuous process.
  • the packaging machine serves to group and connect at least two articles by applying a first packaging means to form a packaging unit, and to connect the individual packaging units along an uninterrupted conveyor with an additional second packaging means to a larger unit.
  • the uninterrupted conveying device can be formed, for example, by a continuously moving conveyor belt or conveyor belt or the like. On this volume are the articles and are moved with the conveying speed of the belt in the conveying direction.
  • the uninterrupted conveyor forms a product flow line in a plane.
  • this packaging machine is a continuous machine. If in this context of an uninterrupted conveyor is mentioned, but so it equally includes a conveyor, which can provide a largely uninterrupted stream of articles.
  • the containers may possibly be rotated in order to bring them into a more favorable position for the packaging to the larger packaging unit. However, since this optional rotation does not have to be associated with an interruption of the article flow, such a variant also forms a continuous flow of articles and / or containers.
  • the articles can be summarized and put in a desired, common format to a larger container unit, for example in 1 x 2 containers, 1 x 3 container, 2x 2 containers, 2x 3 containers, nxm containers, etc. This happens regardless of the desired format or container dimensions.
  • the conversion to another format or other container dimensions can, for example, by a new instruction by a suitable control device, for example by a width adjustment and / or a change of defined parameters in the control program of the control unit.
