Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for producing packages for cigarettes, comprising a continuously driven conveying means, in particular a carrier having transport belt, for transporting the packages and with a device for attaching printing media such as banderoles, coupons or the like on a side surface of the packs, wherein the Device for attaching the print carrier in the region of the conveying means is arranged for attaching the print carrier on a device side facing the pack during transport along the conveyor, according to the preamble of claim 1. Furthermore, the invention relates to a corresponding method according to the preamble of claim. 9 ,
  • the attachment of print media in the form of banderoles on side surfaces of cigarette packs is known.
  • the banderoles can be, for example, tax stamps.
  • the present invention is particularly concerned with the attachment of such bands in the range of narrow side surfaces of cigarette packets.
  • Legal requirements such as the requirement to attach a health warning message to the cigarette pack, bar codes or the like, make the area available for cigarette package design smaller and smaller.
  • an attachment of the band is only in the area of the narrow side surfaces of advantage, because thereby the large-scale front and back of the pack is not covered by the band.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to propose a device which allows a simple change of the relative position of the packages in connection with the attachment of print media and which can preferably be easily integrated into existing systems.
  • a device has the features of claim 1. It is therefore provided that a pivoting device for changing the relative position of the packages in the region of the conveying means or the means for attaching the print carrier is arranged, wherein the pivoting device for receiving a respective pack in a relative position corresponding to the transport on the conveyor and rotation of the pack is set up in a suitable relative position for attaching the print carrier and further rotation of the pack in a relative position corresponding to the further transport on the conveyor.
  • the pivoting device allows a change of the relative position of the package in adaptation to the arrangement and working position of the device for attaching the print carrier, or for adaptation to the relative position of the packages on the conveyor. In this way, it is possible to integrate the pivoting device and the device for attaching the print carrier in an existing conveyor line without the conveyor line itself or the orientation of the package must be changed during transport along the conveyor line. This is ensured by the pivoting device which feeds the packs of the device for attaching the print carrier in a positionally correct manner and places it back in the original relative position on the conveyor.
  • the pivoting device has a receptacle for a pack, in which a single pack can be inserted through the conveyor and that the receptacle is rotatable by a gearbox such that the lateral surface of the pack of the device to be provided with the print carrier for attachment of the print carrier is zuwendbar and after attaching the print carrier in the original relative position back and rotatable and the package can be transferred to the conveyor.
  • the recording for example in the form of a cassette, thus takes over the package from the conveyor and applies the corresponding side surface - preferably a narrow side surface - the means for attaching the print carrier. Thereafter, the pivoting device returns the pack to the original relative position and transfers the packaged with the print carrier to the conveyor. In this way, the pack can then be further processed in the usual way.
  • the rotating device can rotate the package after attaching the print carrier in another than the original relative position on the conveyor. Integration into an existing system may require further customization. In an already new system so the pivoting device can also be used to change the relative position.
  • the packages are arranged lying flat and with a narrow side surface pointing in the conveying direction on the conveyor and that the packages arranged by the pivoting device with a narrow side surface facing upwards of the arranged above the conveyor means for attaching the print carrier are zuwendbar.
  • the packs are dammed up in the region of an inlet station and can be individually fed to a turning device for rotating and separating the packs and transferring the packs to the conveying means. Further details of the turning device can be found in the description of the rest. With the help of the packing jam and the turning device is a simple connection to the conveyor with the Swivel device possible. The pack jam can also be used to control the operation of subsequent machines.
  • the receptacle for the package is pivotally mounted on both sides of the conveyor to a rocker, the rocker is pivotally mounted on swing bearings and a drive along with the recording along an imaginary curve is movable, and that the recording for the packs is rotatable about the bearing point on the rocker arm via a lever.
  • the drive of the device can proceed so that the lever for rotation of the receptacle and a lever for moving the rocker are driven by a transmission with a common drive.
  • this is realized by separate drives, in particular individually operable servomotors.
  • the control via servomotors offers some advantages with regard to the adaptation of the movement path of the rocker and the inclusion of different types of packs, in particular packs with differently positioned side surfaces positioned print carriers. Further details can be found in the rest of the description.
  • the packs After attaching the print carrier, the packs are fed to a device for wrapping the packs in a preferably transparent outer wrapper.
  • a method according to the invention has the features of claim 9. Accordingly, it is provided that the packages are rotated by means of a pivoting device during transport along the conveyor with respect to their relative position such that faces to be provided with the print carrier side surface of the device for attaching the print carrier and that the pivoting device, the packages after mounting in a Relative position for further transport on the conveyor rotates, in particular in the original relative position on the conveyor.
  • the method is used such that the packages are inserted from the conveyor into a receptacle of the pivoting means and the packages are moved by rotation of the receptacle relative to the conveyor in a relative position for attaching the print carrier, in particular with a corresponding side surface, preferably a narrow side surface, the Pack facing up towards the means for attaching the print carriers.
  • the receptacle is accelerated in addition to the rotation and with respect to the conveyor to move the package in the relative position for attaching the print carrier and that the receptacle after attaching the print carrier and the transfer of the packs is moved back to the conveyor a starting position for receiving a next pack.
  • the packages may be returned to the conveyor for feeding the same to an outer wrapping machine.
  • the packages are first transported in sealing position and then separated by means of a turning device and rotated and passed to the conveyor for attaching the print carrier.
  • Another special feature may consist in that, for the production of packs without print carrier, the receptacle for the packs is stationarily positioned in the conveying path of the packs on the conveyor, such that the packs are conveyed by the conveyor through the stationary receptacle. In other words, the recording or the rotating device is stopped and conveyed through the packages without rotation.
  • FIG. 1 A first embodiment is in the Fig. 1 to 11 shown.
  • Fig. 2 an alternative embodiment is shown as a second exemplary embodiment in the essential parts.
  • the packs 10 shown in the exemplary embodiments are cigarette packs of the Hinge-Lid type.

Due to the spaced arrangement of the driver 36 of the transport belt 37, the packages 10 are transported in this way from the inlet station 74 and separated.
  • the separated packs 10 are then moved by the conveyor belt 37 along a curved conveyor section 38 and thereby forcibly rotated so that the packages 10 are arranged with the front side 16 down and the narrow side surface 22 facing in the conveying direction. In this relative position, the packs 10 are detected by the turning device 29.
  • the turning device 29 has a rotating star 39 with four radially directed arms 40, which each detect a pack 10 on the back and feed the conveying means 32. Accordingly, the rotary star 39 is driven continuously and rotated about a vertical axis. In this case, the package 10 is transported along an outside guide plate 41 and rotated in this manner by 90 ° about an imaginary vertical axis. The packs 10 are thus transported with the front 16 down and with the narrow side surface 22 pointing in the conveying direction by the rotary star 39 on the conveyor 32, which supplies the packs 10 at a distance from each other continuously in the direction of the wrapping machine 33.
  • the conveyor 32 is formed in the present case as an endless conveyor, which transports the packages 10 in a horizontal plane.
