Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a device for adjusting height of a prefabricated package box and for closing the box, wherein the box comprises a forehand made goods filling to a certain height and the box comprises a wall, the thickness of which is not less than 2 mm, wherein the device comprises:
- a measuring device for detecting the filling height in the box,
- a supporting means placeable inside the box and mounted against the box wall and being adjustable of its height position,
- a work piece mounted outside the box said work piece being arranged to make horizontally directed folding tracks in the outer surface of the box,
- cutting means for cutting open the horns of the box, and
- devices for turning the flaps formed in the upper edge of the box and for mounting a cover onto the box.
- Earlier is known a device according to the preamble above from publication
EP 1832413 where the adjustment of the box height is presented according to the height of the goods filling. For adjusting the box height fold line markings, like pressings or scorings round the box are made on the box walls on their both sides at the height defined by the ware filling, after which in the next station the box wall portions of each sides of the box above these height lines are folded as flaps closing the box. The pressing lines are steering the foldings in desired points and are also facilitating the folding. - The disadvantage for this known solution is that after their foldings the flaps are trying to return back up, and therefore the flaps are needed to keep folded until a cover can be mounted onto the box. In the known solutions the flaps are glued together for securing that they keep folded. If the box wall is made of normal box cardboard, like corrugated board thickness 3 - 4 mm, may the foldings break uncontrolled the folding lines. Also one can meet difficulties when mounting cover, when in the folding line level the folding line of the flap can locate either on the inner or outer surface of the box.
- For eliminating these disadvantages a new device has been developed for adjusting the box height according to the filling volume and a device for closing the box using flaps and cover. Characteristics for the device according to the invention is that the work piece for making folding tracks in the outer surface of the box is cutting work piece, which cuts from the outer surface of the box to an adjusted deep extended cutting lines.
- Advantageous for the invention is that the inner surface of the box stays unbroken. The film of the inner surface in the box functions as a hinge for the folded flaps, the folding does not comprise any binding which would turn the flaps back up. The folding lines of the flaps become accuracy i.e. the flaps will fold according straight lines and locating on correct levels. It is very easy to make outside the box cuttings on adjusted level so, that the inner surface of the wall stays uncut. The filling height of the boxes transported to the device can be automatically detected by means of a scanner device or by means of a mechanical inside the box lowered measuring device, which measures the highest location of the filling in the box and all in this way of their fillings measured boxes can be manufactured so that their heights are minimized for saving space.
- In the following the invention is detailed described by referring to the enclosed drawings where
-
Fig. 1 presents a prefabricated box when its filling level is measured. -
Fig. 2 presents a mounting of inside the box placed supporting device as a side view. -
Fig. 3 presents a supporting device in the box seen from top. -
Fig. 4 presents a supporting device when supporting box walls seen from top. -
Fig. 5 presents a cutting of the folding lines as a side view. -
Fig. 6 presents a cutting of the box wall in folding point by means of a rotating disc. -
Fig. 7 presents a cutting open of the box horns above the folding line by a knife. -
Fig. 8 presents flaps being folded to close the box and mounting of a cover. - In
figure 1 there is measured by means of a scanning device 2, like inclined scanning or distance-meter the highest height level of the goods or filling 4 in thebox 1 which comes via aconveyor 3. This obtained measuring result adjusts immediately the steering of a supportingdevice figure 2 to a correct height level when it is lowered inside the box or the measuring result is led to a control unit belonging to the device, in which unit the result is added to data of the box in question, if thebox 1 will go further on theconveyor 3 for later proceeded closing function of saidbox 1. The supportingdevice box 1 for supporting the walls of thebox 1 from inside, when cuttings are made in the outer surface of the box 1 (Figs 4 and 5 ). - In
figure 3 the supportingdevice bar 5 inside the box 1 a little above the goods filling 4. The supporting device comprisescounterparts box 1, said counterparts being moved against each other when mounted inside thebox 1 for facilitating the mounting and they are inside thebox 1 brought farther away from each other so, that they support thebox 1 walls, as described infigure 4 . In thefigures 3 and 4 there have been schematically presented an articulated mechanism, by means of which thecounterparts - In
figure 4 there is shown seen from top a partial cutting of thebox 1 wall by means of discs which function as awork piece 8. This example shows discs on each side wall of the box and they are arranged to cut simultaneously their own side wall. It is possible to arrange common driving for the discs by means of a pulling means, which is circulating via all discs or each discs has own driving arrangement producing motion. The discs are freely rotating or rotation motion is arranged for them either separately for each or common rotation motion for all, for example by means of the pulling means 15 (Fig. 6 ) which circulates via all discs. Very advantageous way to move discs is that each disc will move whole the time on the same wall side and will return until is cutting the next box. For securing that the folding of the flaps will happen successful it will be advantageous that some of the cutting lines L for example two opposite lines are lifted to higher height level, wherein the height difference is the same as thickness of the wall, wherein the folding of the flaps overlapped with each other when closing the box does not cause any disturbance, like for example no force which tries to open flaps or to turn them up does not exists. - The cutting discs locate in
figure 5 on the line L and carry out cutting from outside thebox 1 according to thefigure 6 , wherein the outer surface of thebox 1 wall is cut and in this case also a portion from the corrugated board, which locates between the inner and outer surfaces. The cutting is not extended to the inner wall surface. The minimum wall thickness will be at least 2 mm, in order that the cutting blade can be kept inside the wall without damaging the inner surface. It is used in connection with thecutting work piece 8 in thefigure 6 presentedrunners 16, which are pressing the wall from outside against thecounter parts 6. Also support rolls can be used. The desired cutting depth can be got then accurately. Infigure 6 there is shown alsopulling means 15, which circulates via thecutting work pieces 8, wherein thework pieces 8 are moved simultaneously by means of said pulling means. - The
figure 7 shows an example of the cutting open the corners locating above thecutting line 9. It can be done according to thefigure 7 by means of aknife blade 10, which is only pushed through the corner. Preferably all corners are cut simultaneously, wherein thebox 1 keeps its form. Also different kinds of cutting arrangements and blades are possible, like rotating blades or scissors. Theflaps box 1 and a cover 11 is placed and glued onto thebox 1, the edges of the cover are folded and glued to the wall sides of the box said walls having covered byglue 12.
