Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the technical sector of machines for packing one or more stacked tiles, with particular reference to gripping and handling of cardboard blanks which realize packing of the tile or stacks of tiles.
  • the gripping groups that vertically move cardboard blanks in a flattened configuration are generally constituted by a pair of pliers bilaterally positioned with respect to the cardboard blanks.
  • Each gripping plier comprises a pair of jaws, activated to open and/or close, and linear actuator means for vertically moving the pliers.
  • the cardboard blanks are moved from a high vertical position, in which they are removed by the gripping pliers, to a low vertical position, in which they are intercepted by a tile or stack of tiles so as to enable the folding thereof against the tile or stack of tiles, and in which they are released by the gripping pliers in a phase relation with the intercepting.
  • the cardboard blanks can be brought to the high vertical position by transport means, for example comprising a pair of opposite chains, or alternatively by collecting means which collect the cardboard blanks from one or more stores.
  • a further problem linked to the use of the gripping pliers consists in the difficulty of maintaining the cardboard blank sufficiently stretched in the travel between the high vertical position and the low vertical position, with the possibility of compromising the correct folding of the cardboard blank against the tile or the stack of tiles, at the low vertical position, and consequently obtain a poor packing quality.
  • a further problem consists in the limited stability of the cardboard blank during the intercepting step by the tile or the stack of tiles, which necessarily requires disengagement of the cardboard blank from the gripping pliers in a suitable synchrony with respect to the folding step.
  • the cardboard blank has a limited thickness or the type known as single-face, i.e. comprising a corrugated structure and a single covering sheet glued onto the corrugated structure, i.e. when the rigidity of the cardboard blank is relatively low.
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide a gripping and handling group of a cardboard blank in a machine for packing one or more stacked tiles, abler to obviate the above-mentioned problems.
  • the aim is attained by means of a gripping and handling group of a cardboard blank in a machine for packing one or more stacked tiles, realised according to claim 1.
  • gripping and handling group of the invention comprises one or more of the following characteristics, considered singly or in combination:
  • the aspirating means support the cardboard blank by suction effect even after the intercepting of the cardboard blank by a tile or a stack of tiles, enabling sliding of the cardboard blank with respect to the aspirating means during the step of folding the cardboard blank against the flanks of the tile or stack of tiles;
  • the aspirating means comprise at least a pair of aspirating surfaces, a first and a second, able to bilaterally support the cardboard blank;
  • the cardboard blank comprises a central portion, suitable for being intercepted by the tile or stack of tiles, and at least a pair of lateral portions bilaterally hinged to the central portion and suitable for being folded on the flanks of the tile or stack of tiles; the pair of aspirating surfaces bilaterally supporting the cardboard blank by suction effect at the lateral portions of the cardboard blank;
  • the pair of aspirating surfaces is positioned bilaterally to the first transport line, straddling the first transport line;
  • each aspirating surface is slidably guided in travel thereof between the first and the second vertical positions, and is activated by corresponding linear actuators;
  • each aspirating surface is identified by a surface of an aspirating plane connected to a source under depression.
  • the cardboard blank is supplied to the first vertical position by means of a second transport line positioned laterally to the first transport line; at least an aspirating plane is provided with an inclined lateral side identifying an entry part that facilitates handling of the cardboard blank towards the first vertical position, preventing snagging phenomena against the aspirating plane;
  • the cardboard blank comprises a corrugated structure and a single covering sheet glued on the corrugated structure.
  • FIG. 1 - figures from 1 to 5 are five perspective views of a succession of operating steps of the gripping and handling group of the invention operating in a machine for packing one or more stacked tiles;
  • figure 5b illustrates a larger-scale view of arrow Z in figure 5a;
  • FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a particular type of cardboard blank
  • - figure 6a is a view along section Y-Y denoted in figure 6;
  • - figures 7 and 8 illustrate corresponding perspective view of the gripping and handling group operating on a cardboard blank structure different from the one illustrated in figures from 1 to 5 and from 1a to 5a;
  • FIG. 7a, 8a are the corresponding front views of the operating steps illustrated in figures 7, 8.
  • reference number (1) denotes the gripping and handling group of a cardboard blank (2) in a machine for packing one or more stacked tiles.
  • the gripping and handling group (1) is able to support and vertically move the cardboard blank (2) in a flattened configuration from a first vertical position (A) into a second vertical position (B) in which the cardboard blank (2) is intercepted by a tile or a stack of tiles (3) moved by a first transport line (T1); the intercepting enabling folding of the cardboard blank (2) against flanks (30) of the tile or stack of tiles (3).
  • the gripping and handling group 1 comprises aspirating means (4a, 4b) able to support the cardboard blank (2) by suction effect at least at the first vertical position (A) and in the travel between the first vertical position (A) and the second vertical position (B), in which the cardboard blank (2) is intercepted by a tile or a stack of tiles 3 moved by the first transport line (T1 ).
  • the gripping and handling group (1) is able to work with any type of cardboard blank (2), even with relatively small thickness, and is in any case especially advantageous for treatment of a cardboard blank of the "single face" type, i.e. comprising a corrugated structure (100) and a single covering sheet (101) glued on the corrugated structure (100).
  • the aspirating means (4a, 4b) support the cardboard blank (2) by suction effect even after the intercepting of the cardboard blank (2) by a tile or a stack of tiles (3), enabling sliding of the cardboard blank (2) with respect to the aspirating means (4a, 4b) during the step of folding the cardboard blank (2) against the flanks (30) of the tile or stack of tiles (3).
  • the aspirating means (4a, 4b) comprise at least a pair of aspirating surfaces, a first (4a) and a second (4b), able to bilaterally support the cardboard blank (2).
  • the cardboard blank (2) comprises a central portion (20), suitable for being intercepted by the tile or stack of tiles (3), and at least a pair of lateral portions (21 , 22) bilaterally hinged to the central portion (20) and suitable for being folded on the flanks (30) of the tile or stack of tiles (3).
  • Figures 7, 7a, 8, 8a illustrate a cardboard blank (2) having a different structure, i.e. comprising a central portion (20) that can be intercepted by the tiles or stack of tiles (3), and pair of lateral portions (21 , 22) bilaterally hinged to the central portion (20) and a pair of supplementary portions (23, 24), each hinged to the corresponding lateral portion (21 , 22).
  • the gripping and handling group (1) of the invention is able to effectively and advantageously treat both the structures of cardboard blank (2) having both three (20, 21, 22) and five (20, 21 , 22, 23, 24) portions.
  • the pair of aspirating surfaces (4a, 4b), positioned straddling the first transport line (T1), advantageously bilaterally supports the cardboard blank (2) by aspirating effect at the lateral portions (21 , 22) of the cardboard blank (2).
  • the pair of aspirating surfaces (4a, 4b) advantageously identified by the surfaces of an aspirating plane (17, 170) connected to a source of depression, is contained in a vertical plane perpendicular to the advancing direction (W) of the tile or stack of tiles (3) moved by the first transport line (T1).
  • the pair of aspirating surfaces (4a, 4b) can be identified by a plurality of suckers (not illustrated), adjacent to one another and connected to a source of depression.
  • each aspirating plane (17, 170) is slidably guided and activated by corresponding linear actuators (40, 41).
  • each aspirating plane (17, 170) being provided with an inclined lateral side (18, 171) identifying an entry part that facilitates handling of the cardboard blank (2) towards the first vertical position (A), preventing snagging phenomena against the aspirating plane (17, 170).
  • the aspirating planes (17, 170) exert a controlled action, i.e. without sudden tugging, on the cardboard blank 2, differently to the jaws of the gripping pliers of the known technical solutions.
  • the cardboard blank (2) is positioned at the first vertical position (A), bilaterally supported by the pair of aspirating planes (17, 170).
  • the cardboard blank (2) is positioned at the second vertical position (B), supported bilaterally by the pair of aspirating planes (17, 170), waiting to be intercepted by a stack of tiles (3) moved by the first transport line (T1) according to the advancement direction (W).
  • the cardboard blank 2 supported bilaterally by the pair of aspirating planes (17, 170), is intercepted by a stack of tiles (3), with a corresponding start of the step of folding the cardboard blank (2) against the flanks (30) of the stack of tiles (3).
  • Figure 5b illustrates a larger-scale view along arrow Z indicated in figure 5a of the initial step of folding the cardboard blank (2) on the stack of tiles (3).
  • Figures 6, 6a illustrated perspective views in section of a cardboard blank (2) of the single-face type, i.e. comprising a corrugated structure (100) and a single covering sheet (101) glued on the corrugated structure (100).
  • a structured cardboard blank (2) is illustrated, structured with three longitudinal portions, i.e. a central portion (20) and two lateral portions (21 , 22), in figures 7, 8 and figures (7a, 8a) the gripping and handling group (1) operates on a cardboard blank (2) structured with overall five longitudinal portions, i.e. a central portion (20), two lateral portions (21 , 22) hinged to the central portion (20), as well as two supplementary portions (23, 24) each of which is hinged to the corresponding lateral portion (21 , 22).
  • the cardboard blank (2) is advantageously supported bilaterally by aspirating effect at the lateral portions (21 , 22); this does not exclude that according to technical-production specifications the cardboard blank (2), alternatively, can be supported bilaterally by aspirating effect also at the supplementary portions (23, 24) or even at a lateral portion (21 , 22) and a supplementary portion (23, 24).
  • the aspirating planes exert a controlled grip action, less rigid with respect to the pliers of the prior art (described in the preamble hereto), preventing any phenomena of breakage, tearing or damaging of the cardboard blank.
  • the aspirating planes thanks to the aspirating effect, enable sliding of the cardboard blank with respect to the aspirating planes, preventing excessive traction stresses.
  • the aspirating planes enable maintaining the cardboard blank sufficiently stretched with respect to the pliers of the prior art, thus facilitating a correct folding of the cardboard blank against the tile or stack of tiles, after having reached the second vertical position.
  • the cardboard blank is maintained supported by the aspirating planes and slides on the surfaces thereof, differently to the pliers of the prior art which in synchrony with the intercepting of the cardboard blank by the tile or the stack of tiles release the cardboard blank, which is therefore free and not supported during the folding steps.
  • the final package comprises a single cardboard blank, which winds perimetrally to the tile or stack of tiles and closes in proximity of the end edge, and in a case in which the final package comprises a pair of cardboard blanks and requires the end edges of the first cardboard blank to be closed in proximity of the end edges of the second cardboard blank.
  • the gripping and handling group is further able to operate advantageously on cardboard blanks of various type and structure.
  • the gripping and handling group of the present invention is able to treat cardboard blanks comprising a plurality of portions, by way of example cardboard blanks comprising a central portion and two lateral portions bilaterally hinged to the central portion, i.e. cardboard blanks comprising, beyond the central portion and the lateral portions, a further pair of supplementary portions, each hinged to the corresponding lateral adjacent portion.
