Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a modular device for manually unwinding a film wound on a core, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the main field of application for such devices regards manual packaging of palletized goods.
  • Such prior art devices consist of a first portion that can be forcedly inserted into the core of the reel to be unwound and in a second sleeve portion, which is extended laterally outside the core.
  • a first drawback lies in the fact that varying the tensioning of the film during unwinding thereof is quite complex.
  • the step of unwinding the film is extremely jeopardised and difficult to reposition to the initial conditions due to the characteristics of the film which, in case of tearing, tends to divide into small strips very easily.
  • An object of the present invention is that of providing a modular device for manually unwinding a film wound on a core capable of overcoming the previously mentioned drawbacks of the prior art in an extremely simple, inexpensive and particularly functional manner.
  • Another object is that of providing a modular device for manually unwinding a film wound on a core in which the tensioning of the film can be varied manually during unwinding thereof without being exposed to the risk of locally damaging or tearing the film.
  • a further object is that of providing a modular device for manually unwinding a film wound on a core which allows avoiding damaging or tearing the same due to inadvertent fall and/or possible impacts the same device might be subjected to.
  • a modular device for manually unwinding a film 11 wound on a core is shown with 100.
  • Such modular device 100 as observable in figure 1 , consists of two half-reel elements 10 which can be associated to the opposite ends of the core on which the film 11 to be unwound is wound.
  • both the core and the film 11 can be of any known type/material.
  • Each of the two half-reel elements 10, whose assembled example is visible in figures 2 and 3 , comprises an element for supporting the core of the cylindrical hub 12 type and a tubular element 13.
  • the cylindrical hub element 12 comprises tapered surfaces so as to define a frusto-conical shape in which, with the device assembled, the larger base is oriented and coupled by interference inwards the cylindrical core supporting the film 11.
  • the tubular element 13 has a corresponding conical geometry.
  • cylindrical hub element 12 can be coupled integral with the core while the conical tubular element 13 is arranged inside the cylindrical/frusto-conical hub element 12 and serves as a handgrip portion of the device during unwinding of the film 11.
  • the conical tubular element 13 is locked axially, i.e. it cannot slip off, on the cylindrical/frusto-conical hub element 12, but it is rotatable with respect thereto.
  • the user solely by manually gripping the inner surface of the conical tubular element 13, rotates it with respect to the cylindrical hub element, thus allowing the unwinding of the film 11 from the relative core constrained on the conical tubular element 13.
  • cylindrical hub element 12 comprises a widened head portion 14 for selective manual gripping, in particular, with the thumb of the hand which operates on the inner surface of the conical tubular element 13, for integrally joining the cylindrical/frusto-conical hub 12 with the conical tubular element 13 during unwinding.
  • such simultaneous action can be carried out in an extremely simple manner, by operating with the palm of the hand on the inner portion of the conical tubular element 13 and with the thumb of the same hand against head portion 14 of the cylindrical/frusto-conical hub element 12.
  • the frusto-conical hub element 12 integrally supports the core on which the film 11 is wound.
  • cylindrical/frusto-conical hub element 12 comprises a cylindrical portion 15 provided, on the outer surface thereof, with constraint means 16 integral with the core.
  • integral constraint means 16 comprise rectangular-shaped projecting portions 16 arranged along the cylindrical portion 15.
  • the cylindrical portion 15 of the hub element 12 can be tapered so as to define a frusto-conical shape in which, with the device assembled, the larger base is oriented and coupled by interference inwards the cylindrical core supporting the film 11.
  • the assembly step can be carried out by forcedly inserting the fins 16 which, due to an elastic return, are secured onto the inner surface of the core, usually made of cardboard.
  • the radial anchoring fins 16 ensure an ideal interference even in case of wear of the cylindrical core supporting the film 11.
  • the hub element 12-core coupling supporting the film 11 is both guaranteed and maintained over time due to the combined effect of the geometric interference of the hub 12 on the core and due to the presence of the fins 16 arranged tangentially on the frusto-conical surface 15.
  • these projecting portions 16 interfere with the outer surface of the core bearing the film, so as to prevent any relative rotation between the core and the cylindrical/frusto-conical hub element 12.
  • the tubular element comprises a head portion 17 which can be coupled inside the widened head 14 of the cylindrical/frusto-conical hub element 12.
  • the coupling of the cylindrical/frusto-conical hub 12 with the conical tubular element 13 is of the forced and removable type and it occurs through the snap-insertion of an annular peripheral portion 18 of the head portion 17 of the conical tubular element 13 into a seat 19 provided inside the widened head 14 of the cylindrical/frusto-conical hub element 12.
  • the seat 19 is defined by the base 20 and side 21 portions of the widened head 14 of the cylindrical hub element 12 and by a rib 22 parallel to the base 20.
  • a side element 30 for protecting the outer surface 21 of the widened head 14 of the cylindrical/frusto-conical hub element 12 can be provided according to the invention for facilitating the tensioning of the film 11 during unwinding thereof.
  • FIG. 8 An example of such protective element 30, shown in figures 8 and 9 , consists in an internally C-shaped ring element 30, preferably made of rubber plastic material with high coefficient of friction, in which such ring element 30 is constrained integral with the widened head 14 of the cylindrical/frusto-conical hub element 12.
  • Such constraint can for example be obtained by snap-inserting at least one end 31 of the ring element 30 into a corresponding seat 40 obtained on the widened head 14 of the cylindrical/frusto-conical hub element 12 and the other end 32 above the rib 22.
  • the tensioning of the film occurs by manually operating simultaneously with the conical tubular element 13, for example with the palm of the hand, and with the ring 30 constrained to the cylindrical/frusto-conical hub element 12, for example with the thumb of the same hand.
  • the modular device for manually unwinding a film wound on a core attains the previously outlined objects.
  • the modular device for manually unwinding a film wound on a core of the present invention thus conceived can be subjected to numerous modifications and variants, all falling within the same invention concept; furthermore, all details can be replaced by technically equivalent elements.
  • the materials used, as well as dimensions thereof may be of any type according to the technical requirements.
