Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein verbessertes Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum gleichzeitigen Verpacken einer Vielzahl von Beuteln in Sammelbehältern, bei dem die Beutel von einem Transportband einer Verpackungsmaschine in die Sammelbehälter überführt und in diesen stapelweise angeordnet werden.The present invention relates to an improved method and apparatus for simultaneously packaging a plurality of bags in collection containers, wherein the bags are transferred from a conveyor belt of a packaging machine to the collection containers and stacked therein.
Pulverförmige oder grobe Güter wie z. B. Suppen in der Lebensmittelindustrie werden in Beutel eingefüllt und dann weiter verpackt. Die Verpackung der Produkte erfolgt beispielsweise über eine Verpackungsstation, wie sie in der
Zum Egalisieren sind verschiedene Verfahren bekannt. Beispielsweise gibt es Beutelpacker, bei denen die Egalisierung dadurch erfolgt, dass der Beutel mit der bauchigen Seite voran zwischen zwei Walzen durchgeführt wird, die einen Abstand voneinander aufweisen, der der Dicke des egalisierten Beutels entspricht. Nachteilig ist jedoch, dass beim Durchtritt des Beutels durch die beiden voneinander beabstandeten Walzen das den Abstand überragende Gut von den Walzen im Bereich des Beutels gedrückt wird. Auf den Beutel wirken daher relativ starke Druckkräfte ein, die verursachen können, dass das Gut nicht rasch genug dem Druck der Walzen durch das Verschieben ausweichen kann, wodurch der Beutel platzen kann. Auch kommt es vor, dass relativ hartes Gut in den Beuteln, beispielsweise harte Nudelstücke, beim Walzen zerhackt werden, welche so teilweise die Beutelwand durchstechen können. Daneben besteht das Problem, dass durch die Walzen das in dem Beutel aufgenommene Gut zerkleinert werden kann, was unbedingt vermieden werden sollte.For leveling different methods are known. For example, there are bag packers in which the leveling is performed by passing the bag with the bulbous side forward between two rollers spaced apart from one another equal to the thickness of the leveled bag. The disadvantage, however, is that when the bag passes through the two spaced-apart rollers, the distance superior material is pressed by the rollers in the region of the bag. Therefore, relatively strong compressive forces act on the bag, which can cause the material not to move quickly enough to the pressure of the rollers by shifting can dodge, causing the bag to burst. It also happens that relatively hard material in the bags, such as hard pasta pieces, are chopped during rolling, which can thus partially pierce the bag wall. Besides that exists Problem that can be crushed by the rollers, the material received in the bag, which should be avoided at all costs.
Um diese Nachteile zu vermeiden, wurde beispielsweise in der
Die egalisierten Beutel werden anschließend weiter transportiert und zu einer Verpackungsstation gebracht. Nachteilig ist jedoch, dass bei der anschließenden Verpackung der Beutel in einem Sammelbehälter das in den Beuteln befindliche Gut durch die Schwerkraft wieder nach unten gedrückt werden kann. Dies macht die anschließende dichte Stapelung von mehreren Beuteln in einem Sammelbehälter schwierig. Die Bauchenden der Beutel stoßen aneinander, während die dünnen Enden der Beutel oben unnötig großen Abstand haben. Dies bedeutet, dass eine weit geringere Menge an Beuteln pro Karton aufgenommen werden kann, wie es bei normalerweise bei egalisierten Beuteln der Fall wäre. Häufig wird auch beim Verpacken der Beutel eine zuvor vorgenommene Egalisierung zum Teil wieder zunichte gemacht, was unbefriedigend ist. Denn bei der Weiterverarbeitung und Verpackung der Beutel geht oftmals die zuvor durchgeführte Egalisierung wieder verloren, da die Beutel zumindest zeitweise stehend verarbeitet werden. Dies gilt es zu vermeiden.The leveled bags are then further transported and taken to a packing station. The disadvantage, however, is that in the subsequent packaging of the bag in a collection container, the goods located in the bags can be pressed by gravity back down. This makes the subsequent dense stacking of multiple bags in a collection container difficult. The belly ends of the bags abut each other, while the thin ends of the bags have unnecessarily large gaps at the top. This means that a much smaller amount of bags per carton can be received, as would normally be the case with leveled bags. Often, even when packing the bag, a previously made equalization is partly nullified, which is unsatisfactory. For in the further processing and packaging of the bag is often the previously carried out equalization lost again, since the bags are at least temporarily processed standing. This should be avoided.

Vor diesem Hintergrund ist es Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein verbessertes Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Verpacken von Beuteln in Sammelbehältern anzugeben, bei dem eine höhere Verpackungsleistung bei gleichzeitig vereinfachtem Sammelbehälterwechsel ermöglicht wird.Against this background, it is an object of the present invention to provide an improved method and an apparatus for packaging bags in storage containers, in which a higher packaging performance is made possible with a simplified container bin change.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 und einer entsprechenden, dafür ausgelegten Vorrichtung.This object is achieved by a method having the features of
Ein Kerngedanke der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, dass die von einem Transportband zugelieferten Beutel zur Verpackung in einem Sammelbehälter nicht vertikal oder horizontal, sondern in geneigter Position in dem Sammelbehälter gestapelt werden. Dies wird erreicht, indem die Sammelbehälter gegenüber einer horizontalen Längsachse in Stapelrichtung schräg ausgerichtet sind und die Beutel von einem Transportband einer Verpackungsmaschine in den Sammelbehältern überführt und in diesen in Schräglage gestapelt werden, wobei die Sammelbehälter über ein Förderband in einem Winkelbereich zwischen 20° und 70° gegenüber der horizontalen Längsachse geneigt werden.A central idea of the present invention is that the bags supplied by a conveyor belt for packaging in a collecting container are stacked not vertically or horizontally but in an inclined position in the collecting container. This is achieved by the collecting containers are aligned obliquely with respect to a horizontal longitudinal axis in the stacking direction and the bags are transferred from a conveyor belt of a packaging machine in the collecting containers and stacked in this in an inclined position, the collecting container via a conveyor belt in an angle range between 20 ° and 70 ° are inclined relative to the horizontal longitudinal axis.
Vorzugsweise werden hierfür die einzelnen Anlagebestandteile schräg aufgerichtet. Dies sind insbesondere das Transportband, der Kartonaufrichter und/oder der Verdeckler. In der einfachsten Umsetzung ist zumindest das Transportband in einem Winkelbereich zwischen 20° und 70°, gegenüber der horizontalen Längsachse schräg aufgerichtet. Der Verdeckler und der Kartonaufrichter sind vorzugsweise mit demselben Winkel wie das Transportband angestellt.Preferably, the individual plant components are erected obliquely for this purpose. These are in particular the conveyor belt, the carton erector and / or the topper. In the simplest implementation, at least the conveyor belt in an angular range between 20 ° and 70 °, with respect to the horizontal longitudinal axis obliquely erect. The topper and the carton erector are preferably set at the same angle as the conveyor belt.
Je nach Art der Verpackung und Beutelform kann auf eine vorhergehende Egalisierung des Beutelgutes verzichtet werden, da die Verarbeitungsweise der Beutel gemäß dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren gewährleistet, dass das Beutelgut während dem gesamten Verpackungsprozess gleichmäßig im Beutel verteilt bleibt. Dadurch sind maximale Stückzahlen pro Karton erreichbar.Depending on the type of packaging and bag shape can be dispensed with a prior equalization of the bag goods, since the processing of the bag according to the inventive method ensures that the bag stock remains evenly distributed throughout the bag during the entire packaging process. As a result, maximum quantities per carton can be achieved.
Der Begriff "egalisiertes Verpacken" wird im Zusammenhang mit der vorliegenden Erfindung verwendet, um klarzustellen, dass das Beutelgut gleichmäßig und ohne Bauchbildung in den Beuteln verteilt ist. Gleichwohl kann es notwendig sein, bei bestimmten Beutelgütern, den Verfahrensschritt der Egalisierung durchzuführen.The term "equalized packaging" is used in the context of the present invention to clarify that the bag stock is evenly distributed in the bags without belly formation. Nevertheless, it may be necessary to carry out the process step of equalization for certain bagged goods.
Als Sammelbehälter kommen jegliche Transportbehälter in Betracht, beispielsweise Kartons, die für eine Sammelverpackung geeignet sind. Üblicherweise wird der untere Teil eines solchen Sammelbehälters als Tray bezeichnet. Neben Kartonagen kommen auch andere Materialien zum Einsatz, beispielsweise wiederverwertbare Kunststoffe.As a collection container are any transport containers into consideration, such as boxes that are suitable for a collective packaging. Usually, the lower part of such a collection container is referred to as a tray. In addition to cardboard, other materials are used, such as recyclable plastics.
Die Sammelbehälter (z. B. Kartons) werden über ein Förderband zur Verpackungsposition geführt. Hierfür ist ein eigenes Magazin für die Kartonschnitte vorgesehen sowie ein separates Magazin für die Deckel. Die Sammelbehälter des Magazins werden über einen Kartonaufrichter aufgerichtet und dem schräg aufgerichteten Förderband übergeben. Die Beutel oder Verpackungen gelangen über ein Einlaufband zu einem Transportband, über das sie zur Packposition transportiert werden. Das Einlaufband und das Transportband sind wie üblich in horizontaler Lage ausgerichtet. Über das Förderband werden die bereits geformten und aufgerichteten Sammelbehälter der Verpackungsstation zugeführt. Über eine Hubeinrichtung, beispielsweise einen "Pick and Place"-Roboter, werden die Beutel von dem Transportband in den Sammelbehälter überführt. Die erfindungsgemäße Hubeinrichtung kann aus einen oder mehreren Roboterköpfen bestehen, wodurch mehrere Sammelbehälter gleichzeitig befüllbar sind. Ferner sind vorzugsweise mehrere Saugköpfe an einem Roboterkopf angeordnet, um mehrere Beutel gleichzeitig pro Saugkopf und Verarbeitungsschritt, beispielsweise 10 Beutel oder mehr, in einen bereitgestellten Sammelbehälter des Förderbandes überführt werden können. Vorzugsweise werden die Beutel von dem Roboter über ein Vakuum angesaugt und dadurch gehalten.The collection containers (eg boxes) are guided via a conveyor belt to the packaging position. For this purpose, a separate magazine for the cardboard cuts is provided as well separate magazine for the lids. The storage containers of the magazine are set up by a carton erector and handed over to the inclined conveyor belt. The bags or packages pass via an infeed conveyor to a conveyor belt, via which they are transported to the packing position. The infeed conveyor and the conveyor belt are aligned as usual in a horizontal position. About the conveyor belt, the already shaped and erected collection containers are fed to the packaging station. Via a lifting device, for example a "pick and place" robot, the bags are transferred from the conveyor belt into the collecting container. The lifting device according to the invention can consist of one or more robot heads, whereby a plurality of collecting containers can be filled simultaneously. Furthermore, a plurality of suction heads are preferably arranged on a robot head, in order to be able to transfer a plurality of pouches at the same time per suction head and processing step, for example 10 pouches or more, into a provided collecting container of the conveyor belt. Preferably, the bags are sucked by the robot through a vacuum and held thereby.
Durch die liegende Bearbeitung erhält man eine gleichmäßige Verteilung des Beutelgutes in den Beuteln. Durch die Neigung des Förderbandes und somit des Sammelbehälters bleibt beim Befüllen des Sammelbehälters das Beutelgut gleichmäßig im Beutel verteilt - eine Bauchbildung und somit die Ausbildung einer tropfenförmigen Gestalt wird vermieden. Durch die geneigte Anordnung der wichtigsten Komponenten der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung sind eine kompakte Bauweise und ein reibungsloser Betrieb beim Wechsel der Sammelbehälter möglich. Ferner werden höhere Verpackungsstückzahlen pro Sammelbehälter erreicht.The horizontal processing gives a uniform distribution of the bag goods in the bags. Due to the inclination of the conveyor belt and thus of the collecting container, the bag goods remain evenly distributed in the bag when filling the collecting container - a belly formation and thus the formation of a teardrop-shaped shape is avoided. Due to the inclined arrangement of the most important components of the device according to the invention a compact design and a smooth operation when changing the collection container are possible. Furthermore, higher packaging quantities per collection container can be achieved.
Neben den höheren Stückzahlen pro Sammelbehälter nehmen die einzelnen Beutel aufgrund der gleichmäßigen Verteilung des Beutelgutes ferner eine stabile Lage innerhalb des Sammelbehälters ein.In addition to the higher numbers per collection container, the individual bags also take a stable position within the collection due to the uniform distribution of the bag good.
Die mit der Vielzahl von Beuteln bestückten Sammelbehälter werden von dem Förderband über einen Schieber auf ein oberhalb des Förderbandes angeordnetes Zuführband für den Verdeckler überführt. Über dieses Zuführband gelangen die befüllten Sammelbehälter zum Verdeckler, der die Sammelbehälter entsprechend verdeckelt und schließlich einem Auslaufband zuführt. Eine am stirnseitigen Bandende angeordnete Ausschleusungseinrichtung für Leerkartons sowie eine separate Ausschleusungseinrichtung für nicht verpackte Beutel sorgen für einen reibungslosen Ablauf, falls die Maschine in den Notmodus gehen sollte. Der Schieber wird vorzugsweise über Schienen bewegt.The collecting containers equipped with the multiplicity of bags are transferred by the conveyor belt via a slide onto a conveyor belt for the topper arranged above the conveyor belt. About this conveyor belt, the filled sump reach the capper, which covers the collecting container accordingly and finally feeds a discharge conveyor. An arranged on the front-side tape end discharge device for empty cartons and a separate Unwrapped bag diverter ensures smooth operation should the machine go into emergency mode. The slider is preferably moved over rails.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsführungsform hat der Schieber zusätzlich eine Kassettenfunktion, um die Beutel beim Überführen in den Sammelbehälter in einer definierten Position zu halten. Die Kassette kann beispielsweise U-förmig ausgestaltet sein und aus Bürsten bestehen, um diese Funktion zu erfüllen.In a preferred embodiment, the slider additionally has a cartridge function to hold the bags in a defined position upon transfer to the collection container. The cassette may for example be U-shaped and made of brushes to fulfill this function.
Bei dem Förderband handelt es sich vorzugsweise um ein Race-Track, bei dem mehrere Kartons gleichzeitig zur Befüllung zur Hubeinrichtung befördert werden. Dies erfolgt vorzugsweise intervallweise. Das anschließende Befüllen der Sammelbehälter mit den Beuteln erfolgt vorzugsweise über einen oder mehrere Saugköpfe gleichzeitig. Sobald die befüllten Sammelbehälter vollständig mit dem Ladegut bestückt sind, werden sie im nächsten Verfahrensschritt über den Schieber nach oben weggeschoben, so dass schon die nächsten Sammelbehälter im nächsten Intervall über das Förderband zur Bestückungsstation gefördert werden können.The conveyor belt is preferably a race track in which a plurality of cartons are conveyed simultaneously to the lifting device for filling. This is preferably done at intervals. The subsequent filling of the collection container with the bags is preferably carried out simultaneously via one or more suction cups. As soon as the filled collecting containers are completely loaded with the load, they are pushed away in the next step on the slide upwards, so that even the next collection can be promoted in the next interval on the conveyor to the loading station.
Vorzugsweise beträgt der Winkelbereich zum Stapeln der Beutel in dem Sammelbehälter zwischen 20° und 70°, vorzugsweise 25° bis 60°. Ein Winkel von etwa 45°, in manchen Ausführungsformen auch 60° ist besonders bevorzugt.Preferably, the angle range for stacking the bags in the sump is between 20 ° and 70 °, preferably 25 ° to 60 °. An angle of about 45 °, in some embodiments also 60 ° is particularly preferred.
In einer Ausführungsform des Verfahrens ist vorgesehen, dass die einzelnen Beutel in dem Sammelbehälter mit in etwa demselben Winkel in Schräglage gestapelt werden. Um die Stückzahlen pro Verpackungseinheit zu erhöhen, ist in einer weiteren Ausführungsform vorgesehen, dass die einzelnen Beutel in dem Sammelbehälter mit gegenüber der horizontalen Längsachse in Stapelrichtung unterschiedlichen Winkeln abgelegt werden. Dies bedeutet, dass die Ablegewinkel bei jedem Beutel in dem Sammelbehälter immer kleiner werden, d. h. die einzelnen Beutel werden von einer eher vertikalen zu einer eher horizontalen Lage in dem Sammelbehälter gestapelt. Dadurch wird die Verpackungsstückzahl pro Sammelbehälter gesteigert.In one embodiment of the method it is provided that the individual bags are stacked in the collecting container with approximately the same angle in an inclined position. In order to increase the number of units per packaging unit, it is provided in a further embodiment that the individual bags are deposited in the collecting container with different angles to the horizontal longitudinal axis in the stacking direction. This means that the angle of deflection of each bag in the sump becomes ever smaller, i. H. the individual bags are stacked from a more vertical to a more horizontal position in the sump. As a result, the number of packaging per collection container is increased.
Ein Vorteil des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens ist darin zu sehen, dass eine koordinierte Bereitstellung mehrerer Sammelbehälter und eine gleichzeitige Bestückung mit Beutelgut erfolgt, was eine hohe Verpackungsstückzahl ermöglicht. Das Förderband für die Sammelbehälter muss im Gegensatz zu bekannten Lösungen nicht in eine andere Lage (d. h. einen anderen Winkelbereich) zurückgeneigt werden, um beispielsweise die Sammelbehälter in Horizontalposition zu bringen. Dadurch besitzt die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung einen zeitlichen Vorteil beim Kartonwechsel. Insgesamt kann die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung in kompakter Bauweise umgesetzt werden, was einen entscheidenden Kostenvorteil darstellt. Schließlich bleibt auch das Beutelgut gleichmäßig in den einzelnen Beuteln beim Verpacken verteilt. Eine zuvor durchgeführte Egalisierung bleibt erhalten.An advantage of the method according to the invention can be seen in the fact that a coordinated provision of a plurality of collecting containers and a simultaneous loading of bagged goods takes place, which enables a high number of packing pieces. The conveyor belt for the In contrast to known solutions, the collecting container does not have to be tilted back into another position (ie a different angle range) in order, for example, to bring the collecting containers into horizontal position. As a result, the device according to the invention has a time advantage when changing the carton. Overall, the device according to the invention can be implemented in a compact design, which represents a decisive cost advantage. Finally, the bagged product evenly distributed in the individual bags during packaging. A previously carried out equalization is retained.
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist zumindest das Förderband für die Sammelbehälter in einem Winkelbereich von > 20° und < 70°, bevorzugt zwischen 25° und 60° gegenüber der horizontalen Achse in Längsrichtung schräg geneigt. Die Beutel werden demnach in dem Sammelbehälter von unten nach oben über die Hubeinrichtung eingelegt. In einer weiteren Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass das Zuführband für den Verdeckler, der Kartonaufrichter und der Verdeckler in demselben Winkelbereich wie das Förderband schräg aufgestellt sind. Auf dem Transportband und dem Einlaufband sind die Beutel vorzugsweise in horizontaler Lage angeordnet.In the device according to the invention, at least the conveyor belt for the collecting container in an angular range of> 20 ° and <70 °, preferably between 25 ° and 60 ° relative to the horizontal axis inclined in the longitudinal direction obliquely. The bags are therefore placed in the sump from bottom to top on the lifting device. In a further embodiment, it is provided that the feed conveyor for the topper, the carton erector and the topper are installed obliquely in the same angular range as the conveyor belt. On the conveyor belt and the infeed belt, the bags are preferably arranged in a horizontal position.
