Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for the production of triangular packaging bags from a film strip and an arrangement for producing such packaging bag according to this method.
  • tubular bag packaging in which a film strip is formed into a tube.
  • This hose is sealed at cross seams, so that a closed packaging space for receiving the packaged goods arises.
  • film tube can be severed at the stitching optional for the formation of individual tubular bag packaging.
  • a perforation may be applied instead of a separating cut. This results in a so-called chain pack, from which the individual packaging bags can be demolished as needed.
  • sealing seams are applied transversely to the longitudinal direction of the film tube, rectangular packaging bags are created in the plan view.
  • triangular packaging bags may also be desired in the ground plan.
  • the sealing seams are arranged in a zigzag shape at a certain angle to the longitudinal axis of the film tube.
  • a film strip is first formed into a tube, wherein the longitudinal edges of the film strip are sealed together to form a longitudinal seam. Subsequently, the attachment of a diagonal seam, which intersects the longitudinal seam, the filling of the packaging bag and finally the sealing of the same by a further, also diagonal, but oppositely inclined sealing seam takes place alternately.
  • the film tube during the packaging process is perpendicular, ie parallel to the direction of gravity force guided.
  • the diagonal sealing seams of the triangular packaging bag extend obliquely to the direction of the weight force, which makes complete filling of the packaging bag difficult or impossible.
  • the packaged goods get to the sealing portion of the diagonal transverse sealing seams, whereby a dense sealing of the filled packaging is made difficult or impossible.
  • the plan triangular tubular bag packaging must therefore have an excess, resulting in an excessive use of film material. This fact is further complicated by the fact that further film material is consumed for the production of the longitudinal sealing seam.
  • Another problem is that in an individual case an incomplete or even total lack of filling is observed. Such individual, not or improperly filled packaging bags must be discarded. This is particularly important when chain packages are to be produced in which each individual packaging bag must be filled. In this case, then the entire chain pack is weed out, which can significantly increase the associated scrap costs.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a method by means of which in the floor plan triangular packaging bags are simple and reliable to produce and fillable.
  • the invention is further based on the object of specifying an arrangement for carrying out the method according to the invention, by means of which triangular packaging bags can be reliably manufactured and filled in the ground plan.
  • the invention it is proposed to wind a film strip to form a foil coil around a forming mandrel such that its longitudinal edges adjoin one another.
  • the foil coil is pulled off the forming mandrel so far that a first seam section formed by the longitudinal edges and extending in the circumferential direction through 180 ° about the foil coil and a first foil section opposite the first seam section are exposed.
  • the foil coil is compressed in the region of the first seam section, wherein the first seam section is sealed against the first film section to form a first sealed seam.
  • the film coil is further removed from the mandrel so far that a formed by the longitudinal edge, in the circumferential direction by 180 ° around the foil coil extending, adjacent to the first seam section second seam portion and the second seam portion opposite second film portion exposed.
  • the foil coil is compressed in the region of the second seam section, the second seam section being sealed against the second film section to form a second sealed seam crossing the first sealed seam.
  • the associated arrangement comprises an in particular held stationary feeding device for a film strip, a rotatable about its longitudinal axis and axially displaceable in the direction of the longitudinal axis form dome, a control device for forming a foil coil during winding of the film strip on the forming mandrel and in the region of an output side end of the mandrel arranged sealing device for sealing the foil coil to form the packaging bag.
  • the foil coil drawn off from the forming mandrel is forcibly kept open by the forming mandrel in the region of the second sealed seam after the formation of the first sealed seam, so that a secure filling of the packaging bag without rejects is possible.
  • the triangular packaging bags can be manufactured and filled with high efficiency and reliability.
  • the foil coil is rotated by 180 ° with respect to its longitudinal axis between the sealing of the first seam section and the sealing of the second seam section.
  • the packaging bag to be produced has an average length, wherein in particular the forming mandrel together with the foil spiral are axially displaced in the mentioned 180 ° rotation starting from an initial position about said average length of the packaging bag, wherein the foil coil in this twisted and in particular axially displaced state is held, and wherein then the mandrel and the foil coil are axially displaced against each other such that the foil coil is withdrawn axially from said mandrel about said mean length.
  • the foil coil has a helical pitch
  • the control device is designed such that the feed device and the forming mandrel are axially displaced against each other together with the foil helix with a rotation of 180 ° starting from an initial position by half the helix pitch.
  • the forming mandrel is arranged inclined relative to the horizontal by an inclination angle such that the first or second seam section lies horizontally when being sealed.
  • the foil coil has a pitch angle, wherein the inclination angle of the mandrel is equal to the pitch angle of the foil coil.
  • the sealing device is arranged horizontally. All in all, this ensures that the seal seam to be sealed off is horizontal.
  • the triangular packaging bag can therefore be filled almost to the brim without the packaged goods falling out of the interior of the still open, not yet sealed packaging bag. In addition, even with a high degree of filling, no packaged goods reach the area of the sealed seam. Despite the high filling level, the triangular packaging bag can be reliably and tightly closed or sealed. For a certain amount of the packaged goods, the packaging bag can be made comparatively small, which further reduces the consumption of film material.
  • the forming mandrel is designed as a forming tube, wherein the filling of the packaging bag takes place through the forming tube before closing the second sealed seam.
  • a filling line for filling the packaging bag is arranged through the forming tube within the forming tube.
  • the forming mandrel is designed as a radially expandable, in particular from radially displaceable segments formed molding tube.
  • the effective diameter of the forming tube is readjusted during the winding of the foil coil to achieve a desired winding pattern or readjusted. This is particularly advantageous if a certain printing pattern of the film strip must be brought in a certain relative position to the packaging bag.
  • By controlled or regulated adjustment of the effective winding diameter a reduced or increased length of the film strip is wound with each revolution, whereby a printed pattern applied to the film strip can be brought to the desired position or its position can be corrected.
  • the longitudinal edges of the foil strip are expediently stapled together to form the foil coil on the mandrel and in particular sealed together overlapping.
  • a sealing device for fixing the film strip in the form of the film spiral is advantageously arranged radially on the outside of the forming mandrel. This ensures that the foil coil retains its shape not only on the mandrel or on the forming tube, but also after removing it until the formation of the sealing seams, which contributes to process safety.
  • a supporting device for the sealed film strip in particular in the form of a guide tube, is arranged on the side of the sealing device facing away from the output side end of the forming mandrel.
  • the sealed and filled foil strip thus receives a weight force support, so that its own weight does not act on the not yet sealed foil coil.
  • the sealing process can be carried out undisturbed.
  • a retaining device for the sealed film strip is advantageously arranged on the side of the sealing device facing away from the output end of the forming mandrel.
  • the mandrel is preferably stirred out as a radially expandable, in particular formed from radially displaceable segments form tube.
  • the foil coil is wound onto the radially expanded forming tube.
  • the segments are displaced radially inwards so that the effective diameter of the forming tube is reduced. This facilitates the retraction of the forming tube, without taking the foil coil.
  • a spreading device for the foil coil is arranged in the region of the output-side end of the forming mandrel. This facilitates a wrinkle-free sealing of the sealed seams.
