Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is a method for manufacturing flexible packages having a dispensing valve which has characteristics aimed at minimizing the space required for manufacturing these types of packages and notably simplifying said manufacturing process.
  • This invention is applicable to the sector dedicated to the manufacturing of packages and in particular packages for liquids or pasty products.
  • the flexible packages provided with a flat envelope are commonly manufactured in horizontal packaging machines carrying out the unwinding of a thermosealable film, the folding of the two longitudinal halves of the film towards the upper area to form the front and rear faces of the packages, subsequently carrying out the lateral sealings required to delimit the lateral ends of the envelope, the separation by cutting the successive envelopes, the filling of the same and lastly the insertion of the valve in the upper mouth of the envelope and the closing of the same by sealing.
  • the flexible packages which comprise an envelope with lateral bellows as described for example in the European patent EP1538105 , or in the European patent EP 0751081 have a much greater constructive complexity since the manufacture of the envelope is carried out in a flat manner, that is to say, with the envelope lying flat and from four portions of film previously molded. Two of the portions of thermosealable film intended to form the front and rear faces of the envelope are arranged flat while the other two portions of the film intended to form the lateral bellows are arranged folded through their longitudinal central area between the opposing lateral ends of the portions forming the front and rear face.
  • EP 0751081 there is described the method for manufacturing which requires a temporal joining to be established between the four portions of film forming the front and rear faces and the lateral bellows, subsequently carrying out the sealing of the same and leaving an opening open to insert the dispensing valve which is lastly fixed to the package.
  • this package has the drawback that it must be subsequently manipulated to carry out the filling of the same by way of the valve, which makes the packaging of the product within its interior difficult and more expensive.
  • the technical problem posed is thus the development of a method for manufacturing flexible packages having a dispensing valve, of the type mentioned above which notably simplifies its manufacture and even its filling.
  • the method for manufacturing flexible packages having a dispensing valve which is the object of this invention has constructive particularities aimed at drastically simplifying the manufacture of these types of packages and in particular flexible packages with lateral bellows, although the use of the same method for manufacturing flexible packages with a flat envelope, that is to say, without lateral bellows, is not disregarded.
  • the method of the invention comprises the following steps:
  • This method of manufacture notably simplifies the manufacture of the flexible packages having a dispensing valve since the vertical forming of the body of the envelope enables this to be flat or have lateral bellows, being formed, in any case, from a single sheet of film and with a single longitudinal sealing, that is to say, in the vertical direction, for closing the edge of the envelope.
  • Another advantage which this method of manufacturing provides is that the formation of the envelopes is carried out vertically, that is to say, in a direction parallel to that of the filling of the package, the latter being maintained in a vertical position from the obtaining thereof from the continuous tubular body to the finalizing of the package.
  • the method of the invention comprises the unwinding of a flexible thermosealable film (1) supplied in a reel and the vertical formation, with said thermosealable film (1), of a continuous tubular body (2) by means of the vertical displacement and the longitudinal folding of the thermosealable film (1) such that the vertical ends (11, 12) of the thermosealable film (1) are arranged opposing each other along their entire length.
  • a longitudinal sealing (31) is carried out which joins the two opposing ends (11, 12) of the thermosealable film laterally closing the tubular body (2).
  • transversal sealings (32) and transversal cuts in the tubular body (2) By means of carrying out transversal sealings (32) and transversal cuts in the tubular body (2), independent successive flexible envelopes (3) are obtained, provided with a bottom closed by the corresponding transversal sealing (32) and with an open upper mouth (33).
  • the opening of the envelope (3) is carried out, laterally approximating the opposing ends of the upper mouth (33) and introducing in its interior a blowing cone (C) to separate the opposing faces of the same.
  • the metering (D) or filling of the same with the product to be packaged is carried out, the upper mouth (33) of the flexible envelope (3) is stretched (E), separating its opposing ends; a dispensing valve (4) is introduced into the said upper mouth (33) by means of an automatic feeder; and a sealing (34) is carried out which closes the upper mouth (33) and fixes the dispensing valve (4) to the flexible envelope (3), finalizing the manufacture of the package.
