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 welding point, 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 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.
  • the clamping device traction-free sub-band and 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.
  • 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.
  • 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 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 ,
  • FIG. 1 you can see the side view of a strapping device. This has a handle portion 1, which is arranged between a welding portion 2 and a clamping portion 3.
  • clamping section and the welding section are arranged on the same side of the grip area and not on opposite sides as in the example shown here.
  • the embodiment described here has the advantage of having a more balanced mass distribution, which improves the negotiability of the strapping device.
  • 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 passed around the package 5 and then threaded into a strapping machine, with it having a free end 6, as in Fig. 2 can be seen, is placed 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 continuous as upper belt 9 plastic belt is then to the clamping section 3 (see. FIG. 1 ) and passed there under a friction wheel 10.
  • the friction wheel 10 presses the plastic band 4 against a sliding member 11 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 upper belt 9 and the lower belt 6 are welded together in the region between the base plate 7 and weld plate 12 via friction welding.
  • the welding plate 12 is on its in the FIG. 2 provided on the left side with a rolling bearing 14. In the example shown here, this is designed in such a way that only forces which are directed essentially parallel to the course of the upper belt 9 and the lower belt 6 are conducted over it.
  • the welding plate 12 is provided with a Switzerlandkraftabstützung.
  • 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. ⁇ . Is understood, on which support individual components or components positive and / or non-positively or are fixed or fixed thereto accordingly.
  • the welding plate 12 is mounted in a punch 15, which is displaceable within the housing of the strapping device in a guide is, so that the welding plate 12 is raised or lowered.
  • a punch 15 of the welding plate 12 in the stamp 15 guided tensile forces are forwarded to the housing of the strapping.
  • the rocker 16 connects the welding plate 12 in this case with an eccentric drive 17, via which the vibrating motion is generated.
  • a holding element 18 is provided which is also a rolling element and in corresponding rolling tracks on the punch 15 and at the welding plate 12 is guided.
  • This holding element 18 causes, together with the roller bearing 14, an axial securing of the welding plate 12 within the punch 15.
  • a roller bearing 20 is also provided, in which the rolling elements run in Wälzbahnen, which are provided on the underside of the punch 15 and on the upper side of the welding plate 12.
  • the side of the welding plate 12 provided rolling bearings 14 and 18 are free of lateral forces. This is advantageous for their low wear.
  • a separating knife 21 is provided on the punch 15, which is spring-mounted. This is lowered during the welding process with the punch 15 and by the vibration movement of the upper belt 9 under this cutting knife 21 then the upper belt is severed.
  • FIG. 3 the previously described elements are shown in perspective, in the Figures 2 and 4 are shown in sections. It recognizes the packages 5, which are strapped with the plastic strip 4. The free end of the plastic strip 4 is taken as a lower band 6 of the clamping device 8.
  • the lower belt then runs together with the upper belt 9 on the base plate 7 and is there by the welding plate 12 vibrated.
  • the welding plate 12 is guided in a punch 15 and is reciprocated in this by a rocker 16.
  • the welding plate 12 is thereby secured against falling out of the punch 15 via a holding element 18 designed as a rolling bearing, together with a roller bearing 14 which also acts as a traction support.
  • the pressure forces transmitted by the punch 15 to the welding plate 12 are transmitted via a rolling bearing 20.
  • the tape guides 22 are raised so that the upper belt 9 can be vibrated freely.
  • FIG. 5 an alternative embodiment for a stamp is shown.
  • the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals.
  • the punch 15 via a form-fitting sleeve-like guide within the housing of a strapping device is conducted in the FIG. 5 proposed a support of the punch 15 via a support arm 23.
  • This support arm 23 from the top band 9 registered on the welding plate 12 by the roller bearing 14 in the punch 15 tensile forces are introduced into the housing 24 of the strapping device and thus supported.
