Definitions

  • the invention relates to a strapping device for strapping a package with a thermo-weldable plastic band placed around it, which forms a lower band and a top band at a weld, with a housing and a device for clamping the plastic band and with a welding plate vibrating relative to the housing for welding the plastic band.
  • a device of this type is known, for example, from EP 0 949 146.
  • the plastic strip is placed in a loop around a package, wherein a first, free end of the plastic strip forms a lower band at a weld and the other end of the plastic strip as a top band together with the Sub-band is passed after formation of the loop at the weld under a weld plate. With a friction wheel or a similar element, the upper band is then grasped and the loop tightened around the package.
  • a clamping device is provided with which this sub-band is fixed.
  • This clamping device is usually arranged so that lying in the pulling direction in front of the clamping device, traction-free portion of the plastic strip, which is adjacent to the free end of the plastic strip, is passed through the weld.
  • the traction-loaded end of the plastic strip is then guided as a top band over the free end of the plastic strip as a sub-band.
  • traction-free sub-band due to z.
  • the plastic band is so wrapped tightly around the package and is in this state at a point where the lower band and upper band parallel to each other, compressed.
  • essentially the upper band is clamped.
  • the lower band is already held by the lower band clamp.
  • the above-mentioned friction wheel is arranged downstream of this clamping point of upper and lower band in the direction of tensile force. If the frictional wheel then no longer applies the frictional and tensile force to the plastic strip, the upper strip is also traction-free in the region of the traction force direction after the nip point.
  • Welding plate lowered and vibrated relative to the housing of the strapping device.
  • a toothing is provided between the welding plate and the upper belt of the plastic belt, which transmits the vibrations of the welding plate on the upper belt of the plastic belt.
  • the upper band is therefore also put into a corresponding vibration.
  • the welding plate presses the upper belt against the lower belt, so that due to the vibration of the welding plate or the upper belt between upper belt and lower belt comes to a relative movement, which leads due to the resulting friction to a local melting of the thermosch spabaren plastic tape.
  • a disadvantage of the method described so far is that the control of the individual clamping and welding elements is relatively complex and thus control technology is a high effort to drive.
  • Object of the present invention is therefore to simplify a device of the type described above to the extent that it is structurally simple and thus both easier to produce and easier to operate.
  • This object is achieved in that the already known welding plate in the direction of the plastic strip receives a tensile force against the housing.
  • the advantage of this invention is that due to this tensile force support, the above-described upper band clamping device, which is normally located immediately adjacent to the weld, may be omitted.
  • the strapping device according to the invention can be built shorter in the area adjacent to the package. So even smaller packages or packages can be strapped with relatively small diameters.
  • the hitherto separate functions of welding plate and clamping element can be made of only one component by such a device. Contrary to previous designs, it is now possible due to the development of the invention, at the same time to use the welding plate as a clamping element to fix with her acting on the plastic band tensile forces.
  • the tensile force support for the welding plate is provided with an acting on the welding plate rolling bearing.
  • the holding element as well as the tensile force support with rolling elements, which can not only take pure support function. Rather, the corresponding rolling elements can also transmit lateral forces when guided in corresponding rolling tracks. This is for a holder of the welding plate z. B. within a stamp sufficient.
  • the contact pressures to be transmitted between punch and welding plate are preferably transmitted via rolling bearings which are aligned in the direction of the contact pressure. The rolling bearings provided for the tensile force support and the retaining element for the welding plate can therefore be kept free of such loads from such contact pressures.
  • the stamp in which the welding plate is held, can either sit in a corresponding guide on the housing or even transmitted by a support arm or the like forces on the housing.
  • the stamp can also carry a force acting on the upper band, in particular spring-loaded blade, with the welding the process the end of the plastic tape opposite end is severed, so that the weld then connects two free ends of a loop of thermosch regularlybarem plastic tape together ,

  • a package 5 is strapped with a plastic strap 4.
  • the package 5 consists of two cylindrical elements. But it is also possible here plates or stacks of plates, edged rods o. ⁇ . To strapped.
  • the plastic tape 4 is guided around the package 5 and then threaded into a strapping device, where it is placed with a free end 6, as can be seen in Fig. 2, over a base plate 7 of the strapping device. In the area where the plastic strip 4 runs as a lower band of the base plate 7, it is gripped and fixed by a clamping device 8.
  • the guided in a loop plastic strip 4 is also performed with a section a second time on the base plate 7, which lies in the tape direction after being led around the package 5.
  • the plastic strip which continues to run as the upper belt 9, is then guided to the tensioning section 3 (cf., FIG. 1) and guided there under a friction wheel 10.
  • the friction wheel 10 presses the plastic band 4 against a sliding element 1 1 and pulls the plastic band 4 so tight.
  • the tensile force runs along the plastic strip 4 around the package 5 and is again led out of the plastic strip 4 at the clamping device 8.
  • a welding plate 12 is lowered onto the upper belt 9 and pressed against it.
  • the welding plate 12 is provided with a toothing 13 on its side facing the upper belt. With this a partially positive, partly non-positive connection of welding plate 12 and upper belt 9 is achieved. At the same time the clamping force on the reibrand 10 is released in order to avoid splicing of the upper belt 9 during the welding and cutting process.
  • the vibration direction is transverse to the longitudinal axis of the belt but parallel to its surface orientation.
  • the upper belt 9 is reciprocated relative to the lower belt 6. In this case, occurs between the underside of the upper belt 9 and the top of the lower belt 6, a friction, which leads there in each case to a local melting of the plastic strip.

  • the welding plate 12 can take over the existing teeth on its underside 13 which occur in the plastic band 4 in the region of the loop around the package 5 voltages or the resulting tensile forces. These tensile forces are then passed directly or indirectly into the housing of the strapping device. It should be noted that in the present case under a housing and an internal scaffold o. ⁇ .
