Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Etikettiervorrichtung (1) und ein Verfahren zum Betrieb einer solchen Etikettiervorrichtung (1), wobei eine Andruckvorrichtung (5) vorgesehen ist, um eine Siegeletikett (9) um einen stegförmigen Rand (9) seitlich einer Verpackung (3) umzufalten und anzudrücken.The invention relates to a labeling device (1) and a method for operating such a labeling device (1), wherein a pressure device (5) is provided to fold a sealing label (9) about a web-shaped edge (9) laterally of a package (3) and to press.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Etikettiervorrichtung mit einer Andruckvorrichtung gemäß den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 und auf ein Verfahren gemäß den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 11.The invention relates to a labeling device with a pressure device according to the features of claim 1 and to a method according to the features of claim 11.

Aus der US 6,155,322 und der DE 10 2009 039 000 A1 ist eine Etikettiervorrichtung bekannt, die ein Etikett auf einen stegförmigen Rand einer Verpackung aufbringt, wobei das Etikett an der quer zur Transportrichtung ausgerichteten Vorderseite der Verpackung appliziert wird. Bei der US 6,155,322 wird mittels zweier gegenüberliegenden Andruckkörper, die sich entgegen der Transportrichtung auf das applizierte Etikett zubewegen, das Etikett sowohl an der Oberseite als auch an der Unterseite des stegförmigen Randes in eine Kehle gedrückt. Dabei wird die Verpackung mittels der Andruckkörper angehalten und erst nach dem Andrücken des Etiketts an die Verpackung und dem Entfernen der Andruckkörper weiter befördert. Das Etikett wird nachfolgend mittels oberhalb und unterhalb der Verpackung angeordneter Bürsten im Bereich der Ober- und Unterseite angedrückt. Bei der DE 10 2009 039 000 A1 ist nur ein Andruckkörper vorhanden, der mittels einer Parallelführung das Etikett in eine unter dem Rand befindliche Kehle drückt, während das Etikett mittels eine Bürste auf die Oberseite der Verpackung gedrückt wird. Diese Ausführungen erfordern ausreichend zueinander beabstandete Verpackungen und sind somit in ihrer Leistung begrenzt.From the US 6,155,322 and the DE 10 2009 039 000 A1 a labeling device is known, which applies a label on a web-shaped edge of a package, wherein the label is applied to the transversely oriented to the transport direction of the front of the package. In the US 6,155,322 is pressed by means of two opposing pressure body, which move against the transport direction of the applied label, the label both on the top and on the underside of the web-shaped edge in a throat. In this case, the packaging is stopped by means of the pressure body and conveyed only after the pressing of the label to the packaging and the removal of the pressure body on. The label is subsequently pressed by means arranged above and below the packaging brushes in the region of the top and bottom. In the DE 10 2009 039 000 A1 there is only one pressure body which presses the label into a groove located below the edge by means of a parallel guide, while the label is pressed by means of a brush on top of the package. These designs require sufficiently spaced packages and are thus limited in their performance.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine verbesserte Etikettiervorrichtung zum Applizieren von Siegeletiketten an stegförmige Ränder von Verpackungen zur Verfügung zu stellen.The object of the present invention is to provide an improved labeling device for applying sealing labels to ridge-shaped edges of packages.

Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch eine Etikettiervorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 bzw. durch ein Verfahren zum Betrieb einer solchen Etikettiervorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 11. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved by a labeling device having the features of claim 1 or by a method for operating such a labeling device having the features of claim 11. Advantageous developments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.

Die erfindungsgemäße Etikettiervorrichtung mit einer Transporteinheit zum Transportieren von Verpackungen und einem Etikettenspender zum Aufbringen eines Siegeletiketts auf einen stegförmigen Rand der Verpackung umfasst eine Andruckvorrichtung, die eine kreisförmig bewegbare Andruckplatte aufweist. Dies ermöglicht ein Umfalten und Andrücken des Siegeletiketts am seitlichen Rand der Verpackung und einen kontinuierlichem Betrieb der Etikettiervorrichtung. Es ist kein Anhalten der Verpackung notwendig und somit auch kein Abstand zwischen den aufeinanderfolgenden Verpackungen vorzusehen. Somit ist eine maximierte Leistung (im Sinne von etikettierbaren Verpackungen pro Zeiteinheit) zum Anbringen des Siegeletiketts um einen stegförmigen Rand ermöglicht. Das Siegeletikett definiert ein Etikett, das ein Verpackungsoberteil und ein Verpackungsunterteil miteinander verbindet, um beispielsweise eine Klapppackung zusammenzuhalten und/oder ein Zerstören des Etiketts vor dem Öffnen der Verpackung erforderlich zu machen.The labeling device according to the invention with a transport unit for transporting packaging and a label dispenser for applying a sealing label to a web-shaped edge of the packaging comprises a pressure device which has a circularly movable pressure plate. This allows for folding and pressing of the seal label on the side edge of the package and continuous operation of the labeling device. It is not necessary to stop the packaging and thus also to provide no space between the successive packages. Thus, maximized performance (in the sense of labelable packages per unit of time) is enabled for attaching the seal label around a ridge-shaped edge. The seal label defines a label, which is a packaging shell and interconnecting a package bottom to, for example, hold together a folded package and / or require destroying the label prior to opening the package.

Bevorzugt ist eine Umfaltleiste vorgesehen, um ein an dem Rand der Verpackung angebrachtes freies Ende des Siegeletiketts um den Rand umzufalten. So kann das Siegeletikett um annähernd 90° in die Richtung der abgewandten Seite des bereits aufgebrachten Siegeletiketts umgefaltet werden und die Andruckvorrichtung kann das folgende Umfalten um weitere annähernd 90° durchführen und das Siegeletikett an den stegförmigen Rand andrücken.Preferably, a Umfaltleiste is provided to fold around the edge attached to the edge of the packaging free end of the seal label around the edge. Thus, the seal label can be folded by approximately 90 ° in the direction of the opposite side of the already applied seal label and the pressure device can perform the following folding around another approximately 90 ° and press the seal label to the web-shaped edge.

Dabei weist die Umfaltleiste vorzugsweise eine Schräge auf, gegen die das freie Ende des Siegeletiketts, das über den Rand der Verpackung übersteht, bewegt wird, während die Verpackung in Transportrichtung parallel zur Umfaltleiste und der Andruckvorrichtung transportiert wird.In this case, the Umfaltleiste preferably has a slope against which the free end of the seal label, which projects beyond the edge of the package, is moved while the package is transported in the transport direction parallel to the Umfaltleiste and the pressure device.

In einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführung ist die Umfaltleiste stationär an der Andruckvorrichtung angebracht, um gemeinsam mittels einer höhenverstellbaren Andruckvorrichtung an verschiedene Verpackungsgrößen und damit an unterschiedliche Lagen des Randes auf einfache Weise anpassbar zu sein.In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the Umfaltleiste is stationary mounted on the pressure device to be jointly adapted by means of a height-adjustable pressure device to different packaging sizes and thus to different layers of the edge in a simple manner.

Die kreisförmige Bewegungsbahn der Andruckplatte ist vorzugsweise mittels zweier gemeinsam synchron angetriebener Scheiben, an denen die Andruckplatte mittels eines Halters angebracht ist, erzeugbar. Somit bleibt eine Vorderkante der Andruckplatte während der gesamten kreisförmigen Bewegung annähernd oder exakt parallel zur Transportrichtung bzw. parallel zum seitlichen Rand der Verpackung.The circular path of movement of the pressure plate is preferably produced by means of two jointly synchronously driven discs, on which the pressure plate is mounted by means of a holder. Thus, a leading edge of the pressure plate during the entire circular movement remains approximately or exactly parallel to the transport direction or parallel to the lateral edge of the package.

Bevorzugt ist die Andruckplatte um eine Drehachse des Halters schwenkbar, um Ungenauigkeiten an der Verpackung, im Speziellen am Rand der Verpackung, ausgleichen zu können.Preferably, the pressure plate is pivotable about an axis of rotation of the holder in order to compensate for inaccuracies in the packaging, in particular at the edge of the package.

Dabei ist vorzugsweise die Andruckplatte mittels Druckfedern vorspannbar, um während des Andruckvorgangs einen definierten Druck einstellen zu können.In this case, preferably, the pressure plate is biased by means of compression springs to adjust during the Andruckvorgangs a defined pressure can.

Vorzugsweise ist ein Niederhalter für die Verpackung vorgesehen, um die zwei Packungshälften, nämlich ein Verpackungsoberteil und ein Verpackungsunterteil, zusammenzuhalten, während das Siegeletikett auf den seitlichen Rand der Verpackung mit einem freien, seitlich über den Rand hinausstehenden Ende gespendet wird und während das Umfalten und das Andrücken des Siegeletiketts erfolgt.Preferably, a hold-down for the package is provided to hold together the two package halves, namely a package top and a package bottom, while the seal label is dispensed onto the side edge of the package with a free end projecting laterally beyond the edge and during the folding and the Pressing the seal label is done.

Die Andruckvorrichtung ist in einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführung seitlich der Transportvorrichtung angeordnet, um kontinuierlich Siegeletiketten an an der Andruckvorrichtung vorbei transportierbare Verpackungen anzudrücken. Dabei können die Verpackungen direkt aufeinander folgen und Transportgeschwindigkeiten bis zu 1 m/s aufweisen.In a particularly advantageous embodiment, the pressure device is arranged laterally of the transport device in order to continuously press on sealing labels to packages which can be transported past the pressure device. The packages can follow each other directly and have transport speeds of up to 1 m / s.

Vorzugsweise ist die Andruckplatte ist gegenüber der Transportebene der Transportvorrichtung um einen Winkel geneigt, um eine Kollision der Vorderkante der Andruckplatte mit dem seitlichen Rand der Verpackungen zu verhindern. Die Vorderkante nähert sich der Unter- oder Oberseite des stegförmigen Randes immer weiter an, je mehr Fläche des freien Endes des Siegeletiketts umgefaltet und angedrückt wird. Dabei ist eine Neigung von 5° bis 10° besonders geeignet.Preferably, the pressure plate is inclined relative to the transport plane of the transport device by an angle in order to prevent a collision of the front edge of the pressure plate with the lateral edge of the packaging. The leading edge approaches the lower or upper side of the web-shaped edge more and more, the more surface of the free end of the seal label is folded and pressed. An inclination of 5 ° to 10 ° is particularly suitable.

Ein erfindungsgemäßes Verfahren zum Betrieb einer Etikettiervorrichtung, die eine Transporteinheit zum Transportieren von Verpackungen, einen Etikettenspender zum Aufbringen eines Siegeletiketts auf einen stegförmigen Rand der Verpackung und eine Andruckvorrichtung umfasst, zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass das Siegeletikett an dem seitlichen, in Transportrichtung ausgerichteten, stegförmigen Rand aufgebracht wird, anschließend ein freies Ende des Etiketts umgefaltet wird und mittels einer Andruckplatte der Andruckvorrichtung an den Rand angedrückt wird. So kann ein Packungsstrom mit oder auch ohne einen Abstand zwischen den einzelnen Verpackungen kontinuierlich ohne eine Veränderung der Transportgeschwindigkeit mit einem Siegeletikett um einen stegförmigen Rand angebracht werden. Hierbei sind höchste Leistungen zu erreichen.An inventive method for operating a labeling device comprising a transport unit for transporting packaging, a label dispenser for applying a seal label on a web-shaped edge of the package and a pressure device is characterized in that the sealing label on the lateral, aligned in the transport direction, web-shaped Edge is applied, then a free end of the label is folded over and is pressed by means of a pressure plate of the pressure device to the edge. Thus, a packing stream with or without a spacing between the individual packages can be continuously attached without a change in the transport speed with a sealing label around a web-shaped edge. Here are the highest achievements to achieve.

Die Andruckplatte wird dabei bevorzugt kreisförmig bewegt, um schnelle Bewegungen der Andruckplatte zu ermöglichen.The pressure plate is preferably moved circularly to allow rapid movements of the pressure plate.

Bevorzugt wird die Andruckplatte quer zur Transportrichtung bewegt, um den Andruckvorgang auszuführen.Preferably, the pressure plate is moved transversely to the transport direction to carry out the pressing operation.

Es ist denkbar, dass das Siegeletikett von unten auf die untere Randfläche der Verpackung gespendet wird und die Andruckvorrichtung das Umfalten und das Andrücken des Siegeletiketts an die obere Randfläche ausführt. Ebenso ist es denkbar, dass die Verpackung stehend auf der Transportvorrichtung transportiert wird und das Anbringen des Siegeletiketts an der oberen Seite erfolgt und die Andruckbewegung der Andruckplatte annähernd vertikal erfolgt.It is conceivable that the sealing label is dispensed from below onto the lower edge surface of the packaging and the pressure device performs the folding and pressing of the sealing label to the upper edge surface. It is also conceivable that the packaging is transported standing on the transport device and the attachment of the seal label takes place on the upper side and the pressure movement of the pressure plate is approximately vertical.

Die Andruckvorrichtung 5 bzw. die Andruckplatte 18 teilweise ist gegenüber der Transportebene der Transportvorrichtung 2 und somit gegenüber der Unterseite der Verpackung 3 um einen Winkel ß von 5° bis 10° geneigt, und zwar in der von der Transportvorrichtung 2 fort weisenden Richtung schräg nach unten abfallend. Fig. 3 shows the pressure device 5 in a view obliquely from below. The Umfaltleiste 14 is attached to the front of the pressure device 5, which faces the transport device 2 attached. The top of the applied to the upper edge surface 28 of the package 3 label 9 is in contact with the underside of the Umfaltleiste 14 during transport in the transport direction T along the pressure device 5 in order to also as a counterhold during the pressing of the free end 9 'of the seal label 9 to act the lower edge surface 29 of the rim 10. The pressure device 5 has on its underside a cover 16 and has on its front side an elongated opening 17 which is aligned in the transport direction T. From the opening 17, a pressure plate 18 is partially moved out in the direction of the package 3. The pressure device 5 or the pressure plate 18 is partially inclined relative to the transport plane of the transport device 2 and thus with respect to the underside of the package 3 by an angle ß of 5 ° to 10 °, in the direction away from the transport device 2 direction obliquely downwards sloping.

In Fig. 4 ist die Andruckvorrichtung 5 ohne die Abdeckung 16 gezeigt. Die Andruckplatte 18 ist an einem Halter 21 um eine horizontale Drehachse 22 schwenkbar gelagert und mit drei Druckfedern 23 gegen eine Begrenzung 24 federnd vorgespannt. Eine Vorderkante 20 der Andruckplatte 18 kann somit nach unten bzw. von der Verpackung 3 abweisend gegen die Druckfedern 23 ausgelenkt werden. Über die vertikale Relativposition der Andruckvorrichtung 5 gegenüber dem Rand 10 der Verpackung 3 ist die Andruckkraft der Vorderkante 20 an das Etikett 9 einstellbar. Der Halter 21 ist mit zwei Scheiben 19 verbunden, um eine Drehbewegung ausführen zu können. Die zwei Scheiben werden über ein nicht näher dargestelltes Getriebe synchron von einem Motor 25 angetrieben.In Fig. 4 the pressure device 5 is shown without the cover 16. The pressure plate 18 is pivotally mounted on a holder 21 about a horizontal axis of rotation 22 and resiliently biased with three compression springs 23 against a boundary 24. A front edge 20 of the pressure plate 18 can thus be deflected downward or from the package 3 repellent against the compression springs 23. About the vertical relative position of the pressure device 5 relative to the edge 10 of the package 3, the pressing force of the leading edge 20 is adjustable to the label 9. The holder 21 is connected to two discs 19 in order to perform a rotary movement can. The two discs are synchronously driven by a motor 25 via a not-shown gear.

Um den Bewegungsablauf bzw. den Andruckvorgang näher erläutern zu können, sind in Fig. 5 bis 8 in einer Ansicht von unten auf die ohne die Abdeckung 16 dargestellte Andruckvorrichtung 5 und die Bewegung der Verpackung 3 vier Bewegungsstellungen gezeigt. In Fig. 5 ist das Etikett 9 auf die obere Randfläche 28 des Rands 10 der Verpackung 3 in dieser Ansicht gespendet und die Andruckplatte 18 befindet sich in einer eingefahrenen Position. Die Verpackung 3 wird mittels der in Fig. 5 bis 8 ausgeblendeten Transportvorrichtung 2 von links nach rechts in der Transportrichtung T bewegt.In order to be able to explain the movement sequence or the pressing process in more detail, are in Fig. 5 to 8 shown in a view from below on the pressure device 5 shown without the cover 16 and the movement of the package 3 four movement positions. In Fig. 5 the label 9 is donated to the upper edge surface 28 of the edge 10 of the package 3 in this view and the pressure plate 18 is in a retracted position. The packaging 3 is by means of in Fig. 5 to 8 hidden transport device 2 moves from left to right in the transport direction T.

Während des Transports entlang der Umfaltleiste 14 wird das freie Ende 9' des Siegeletiketts 9 an der Schräge 15 um 90° aus der Zeichenebene heraus gefaltet. Die Andruckplatte 18 ist mit den zwei synchron drehenden Scheiben 19 über den Halter 21 derart verbunden, dass die Andruckplatte 18 eine kreisförmige Bewegung in einer leicht gegenüber der Horizontalen geneigten Ebene ausführt, wobei die Vorderkante 20 immer annähernd parallel zur Transportrichtung T der Verpackung 3 ausgerichtet ist, um ein linienförmiges Andrücken des Etiketts 9 zu bewirken.During transport along the Umfaltleiste 14, the free end 9 'of the seal label 9 is folded on the slope 15 by 90 ° out of the plane. The pressure plate 18 is connected to the two synchronously rotating discs 19 via the holder 21 such that the pressure plate 18 performs a circular movement in a slightly inclined to the horizontal plane, the leading edge 20 is always aligned approximately parallel to the transport direction T of the package 3 to effect a line-shaped pressing of the label 9.

Zwischen den Fig. 5 und 6 drehen sich die zwei Scheiben 19 und damit die Andruckplatte 18 im Uhrzeigersinn. Sobald sich das Etikett 9 und die Vorderkante 20 in der Stellung von Fig. 6 befinden, bewirkt die weitere Drehbewegung der Andruckplatte 18 und die Transportbewegung der Verpackung 3, dass sich die Vorderkante 20 relativ zur Verpackung 3 annähert und das freie Ende 9' des Etiketts 9 an die untere Randfläche 29 des Randes 10 in dieser Ansicht umfaltet und andrückt, wie in Fig. 7 gezeigt. Während dieser Relativbewegung ist besonders vorteilhaft, wenn die Bewegungskomponente der Andruckplatte 18 in Transportrichtung T synchron mit der Transportgeschwindigkeit der Verpackung 3 ist. Wie Fig. 7 zeigt, bewegt sich die Andruckplatte 18 so weit nach vorne, bis ihre Vorderkante 20 den Rand 10 der Verpackung 3 in seiner ganzen Breite oder zumindest fast in seiner ganzen Breite überstrichen hat.Between FIGS. 5 and 6 rotate the two discs 19 and thus the pressure plate 18 in a clockwise direction. Once the label 9 and the leading edge 20 in the position of Fig. 6 the further rotational movement of the pressure plate 18 and the transport movement of the package 3 causes the leading edge 20 to approach the package 3 and to fold over and press the free end 9 'of the label 9 to the lower edge surface 29 of the rim 10 in this view; as in Fig. 7 shown. During this relative movement is particularly advantageous if the movement component of the pressure plate 18 in the transport direction T is synchronous with the transport speed of the package 3. As Fig. 7 shows, the pressure plate 18 moves so far forward until its front edge 20 has swept over the edge 10 of the package 3 in its entire width or at least almost in its entire width.

Das Siegeletikett 9 ist um den Rand 10 umgefaltet und haftet jetzt an der oberen 28 und unteren Randfläche 28 und sichert die zwei Verpackungshälften gegen unbeabsichtigtes Öffnen, d.h. ein zerstörtes Siegeletikett 9 zeigt eine bereits geöffnete Verpackung 3 an. Die in Fig. 1 gezeigte Steuerung 6 regelt mittels der Informationen der Sensoren 7 und der Geschwindigkeit der Transportvorrichtung 2 die Bewegung der Andruckplatte 18.The sealing label 9 is folded over the edge 10 and now adheres to the upper 28 and lower edge surface 28 and secures the two packaging halves against accidental opening, ie a destroyed seal label 9 indicates an already open packaging 3 at. In the Fig. 1 shown controller 6 controls by means of the information of the sensors 7 and the speed of the transport device 2, the movement of the pressure plate 18th

In Fig. 8 wird die Verpackung 3 weitertransportiert und die Andruckplatte 18 während der weiteren Drehbewegung wieder zurück in die eingefahrene Position gedreht.In Fig. 8 the package 3 is further transported and the pressure plate 18 is rotated back into the retracted position during the further rotational movement.
