Definitions

  • the invention relates to a perforation unit of a packaging machine.
  • Flat materials such as paper webs, plastic films or the like, may be provided as so-called repackaging of a plurality of individually packaged products, for example a container of a plurality of beverage cans to give them cohesion.
  • These outer packaging can preferably be opened quickly and without tools by the consumer with the aid of a factory-introduced perforation.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a perforation of a packaging machine, which allows a high perforation and thus a high packaging performance of the entire packaging machine, and which allows a particularly easy opening of the perforated packaging.
  • the invention proposes that the flat material to be perforated runs along between two perforation bars to lead, with these two perforation moving in opposite directions and thus lead the perforated packaging material in its transport direction.
  • each perforation bar is provided with a series of perforating points, which can then be brought from a retracted rest position into a perforation position when the perforation bar has taken a suitable, applied to the packaging material position.
  • the packaging material can be continuously transported continuously, and the perforation can be introduced without interruption of this transport movement in the packaging material. Compared to a discontinuous perforation process, to which the packaging material would have to be stopped, becomes a higher Packaging performance of the entire packaging machine allows.
  • the perforation beams which are indeed movable about an axis extending in the longitudinal direction of the beam, can be oscillated back and forth so that they are moved during a perforation process with the continuously transported packaging material, and are returned again after this perforation process a starting position in which they are ready for the start of a new perforation process.
  • the perforation bars are rotatable about the axis mentioned, so in the sense of a complete rotational movement by 360 ° are movable. In this way, a particularly simple adaptation to almost any transport speeds of the packaging material can take place and thus the highest possible packaging performance of the packaging machine can be made possible.
  • a quiet and energy-saving drive of the perforation bars is possible, because they do not have to be decelerated again and again as in the case of an oscillation again and accelerated.
  • the perforation bar has a plunger, which acts on a perforating tip and is movable together with it.
  • this plunger runs along a guide contour which has a perforation cam. Since this perforation cam points radially inward, that is to say in the direction towards the axis about which the perforation bar is movable, the plunger is also moved in the direction of the axis of movement of the perforation bar when it passes over this perforation cam.
  • the perforating tip connected to the plunger is thus moved by the plunger from its retracted rest position into the perforation position projecting beyond the remaining perforation bar.
  • the height and the contour of the Perforationsnockens can be precisely set at what point during the movement of the Perforationsbalkens, with which stroke, and at what speed the perforating tip between its rest position and its Perforations ein is moved.
  • the movement of the perforating tip can be optimally adapted to the packaging material used in each case, so that on the one hand this is reliably perforated, on the other hand optimally protected, in order to avoid unwanted tearing of this packaging material, and it can be adapted to the respective intended production speed to avoid adversely rapid accelerations of the plunger and the perforating tip, but to ensure a sufficiently rapid operation of the perforating.
  • the plunger can be guided with a roller along the guide contour, so that the lowest possible operation of the plunger and thus the entire perforation unit is ensured, and a possible low-resistance and thus energy-saving operation of the perforation.
  • the guide contour is not fixed and immutable, for example, in a housing component of the perforation, but that it is provided in a separate gate piece, which is interchangeable held in the rest of the perforation unit.
  • different link pieces can be used, with differently contoured perforation cams, for example, to be able to adapt the stroke of the perforation tips to different material thicknesses of the respective packaging material.
  • the link pieces can be advantageously fixed adjustable to the rest of the perforation, z. B. by means of slots or the like, so that their exact position is adjustable and they in This position can then be reliably determined for the duration of their mission.
  • the perforating be spring-loaded in its rest position, so that it is moved by means of the plunger against the spring action in the perforation.
  • the choice of the suitable spring with a spring characteristic adapted to the intended production speed enables a low-resistance and therefore energy-saving operation of the perforation unit on the one hand, and on the other hand avoids unwanted flutter or resonance phenomena in the movement of the plunger and the perforating tip due to a sufficiently stiff spring characteristic.
  • a plurality of perforating tips arranged within a row can be combined to form a single component, so that a type of comb is formed.
  • a type of comb is formed.
  • the recesses associated with the perforating tips of the respective other perforation beam may also preferably be combined, namely by not providing individual recesses each receiving a single perforating tip, but by creating a continuous groove to which the multiplicity of recesses are combined ,
  • the mentioned comb is designed not only in the area of the individual perforating tips in a blade-like manner, but rather has a cutting blade which extends beyond the perforating tips. So causes the same tool at a correspondingly increased stroke not only a perforation of the packaging material, but rather produces a continuous cutting line in the packaging material.
  • the proposed perforation unit can optionally be used for perforating or cutting.
  • the greater required in comparison to the perforation immersion depth of the corresponding comb in the associated groove of the opposite Perforationsbalkens can be effected by a correspondingly changed guide contour and the perforation cams.
  • the two perforation bars can have an almost arbitrarily shaped peripheral contour.
  • they can have a circular segment-shaped surface contour in the region in which the perforation tips and the recesses are provided, so that they can bear against the packaging material during their movement, which they execute around the axis extending in the longitudinal direction of the beam.
  • the packaging material is reliably fixed and guided between the two perforation bars during the perforation process, so that the perforation process can be carried out as gently as possible and as gently as possible for the packaging material, since the packaging material can not give way to the perforation tips.
  • the circular segment-shaped surfaces of the two perforation beams are designed to be slip-resistant, and that these two surfaces are arranged close to each other such that the packaging material to be perforated is held between the two perforation beams.
  • the transport movement of the packaging material can be supported by the movement of the two oppositely movable perforation, so that a trouble-free and quickest possible transport of the packaging material is supported during the perforation, and thus the highest possible packaging performance of the packaging machine.
  • the distance between the two perforation bars is adjustable, for example in adaptation to differently thick packaging materials.
  • at least one of the two perforation beams is adjustably mounted in order to be able to determine the corresponding gap width between the two perforation beams in this way.
  • the drawing shows a cross section through a designated 1 perforation of a packaging machine.
  • the perforation unit 1 is used to perforate a designed as a plastic film packaging material 2.
  • the packaging material 2 is fed to the perforation unit 1 in a transport direction T indicated by an arrow and passed through the perforation unit in this transport direction T. It passes between two perforation 3, which extend transversely to the transport direction T, and which are rotatable in opposite directions about axes corresponding to the curved arrows, which extend in the longitudinal direction of the perforation beam 3.
  • a number of perforating 4 is provided, which are each configured as tines of a comb 5 and are connected to a plunger 6.
  • the plunger 6 is reciprocally mounted within the perforation beam 3, in a direction of movement which is transverse to the axis about which the perforation beam 3 is rotatable.
  • the Perforierspitzen 4 can be moved in this way between a rest position, as seen in the lower perforation bar 3, and a Perforations ein, as can be seen in the upper perforation 3, back and forth.
  • the perforation tips 4 protrude radially outward beyond the remaining perforation bar 3 and penetrate in this way the packaging material 2.
  • the perforating 4 dives into a recess 12 of the respective opposite perforation 3 a.
  • the plunger 6 runs along with a roller 8 on a guide contour 9, which is provided on a gate piece 10.
  • the plunger 6 to a perforation cam 11, which projects radially inwardly relative to the rest of the course of the guide contour 9.
  • the plunger 6 is therefore, as long as the roller 8 abuts the perforation cam 11, initially moved against the action of the spring 7, and the perforating 4 moves accordingly out of the respective perforation bar 3 in its perforation.
  • the two rows of perforation tips 4 are offset from each other during the common, but opposite movement of the two perforation bars 3, so that two spaced-apart perforation lines are produced in the packaging material 2.
  • the two rows of perforating 4 are also actuated sequentially in time, which is determined by the orientation of the perforation 3 and the consequent position of the plunger 6 and by the position of the perforation cam 11. In this way, the respective perforation always takes place when the corresponding location of the packaging material 2 between the two perforation bars 3 is optimally maintained.
