Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for the production of packaging units in a tubular bag machine, in which isolated products are transferred by means of a horizontal conveyor to a portioning device for the production of portion units with a defined arrangement and number of products and then the wrapped by a film web portion units with a vertical conveyor to a singulator to promote the separation of the packaging units. Furthermore, the invention relates to a device for producing packaging units in a tubular bag machine with a horizontal conveyor for transferring isolated products to a portioning device for the production of portion units with a defined arrangement and number of products and with a vertical conveyor for conveying the portion of a film wrapped serving units to a singulator for separating the packaging units.
  • the sporadically supplied products are first combined in a defined relative arrangement to portion units. Subsequently, these portion units are provided with the tubular film wrapping, in order then finally to obtain separated packaging units at defined locations by means of a severing of the film tube.
  • a synchronization must be carried out between the horizontal conveying device supplying the products with the portioning device, since in the portioning device the relative arrangement of the separated products for producing portioning units is changed.
  • portion units having the previously separated products in a stacked arrangement both the distances between the individual products and their spatial orientation to each other must be changed. This requires, for example, a corresponding delay of a circumferentially operated portioning device when taking over the separated products from the horizontal conveyor.
  • EP 2 521 874 A1 shows a method and apparatus for producing packaging units in a tubular bag machine. It is the object of the present invention to provide a method and / or a device which has both a synchronization between the horizontal conveying device and the portioning device and also a synchronization between the portioning device and allows the vertical conveyor with the least possible technical equipment effort.
  • both the synchronization between the horizontal conveying device and the portioning device and the synchronization between the portioning device and the vertical conveying device take place by means of the portioning device itself.
  • the portioning device which is anyway required for the production of the portion units, simultaneously serves for the synchronization.
  • the synchronization is performed by the portioning device by means of at least one pair of stops with two independently rotating on a circulating conveyor portioning stops, namely an anticipatory guide stop and a trailing end stop, which rest against the products to form a portion unit of adjacent products and transferred together with the temporarily received portion unit on the circulating conveyor from a transfer position for taking over products from the horizontal conveyor to a transfer position for transferring the products to the vertical conveyor.
  • the sandwich-like recording of the portion unit between the guide stop and the end stop allows a transport unit unaffected by gravity, so that the portion unit as a coherent, compact unit with adjacent products regardless of gravity influences and in their conveying speed solely by the conveying speed of the determined by the guide stop and the end stop stop pair determined on the circulation conveyor can be transported to the vertical conveyor.
  • portioning stops Due to the independent operation of the portioning stops, it is possible to adapt the speed with which the portioning stops on the circulating conveyor to the respective particular synchronization conditions when taking over the products from the horizontal conveyor on the one hand and during the transfer of the products grouped into unit units to the vertical conveyor on the other hand.
  • the conveying direction of the circulating conveyor is opposite to the conveying direction of the horizontal conveying device and in the same direction as the conveying direction of the vertical conveying device, and the circulating conveyor has an increasingly vertically aligned porting path starting from a transfer section inclined downwards towards the horizontal up to a transfer section, the conveying connection is as direct and short as possible between the horizontal conveyor and the vertical conveyor possible.
  • the guide stop in a standstill position is positioned, and after taking over the product of the horizontal conveyor the end stop is moved against the product.
  • a particularly product-gentle transfer of the products combined to portion units from the portioning to the vertical conveyor is possible when the guide stop and the end stop move when reaching the transfer position synchronously with the vertical conveyor and parallel to this. This ensures, in particular, that the film web which is moved continuously with the vertical conveyor and serves to form the casing of the portion units has the same speed at the time of transfer of the products and is advanced in the same direction.
  • the guide stopper is accelerated and the end stop is delayed, it is ensured that no force impeding the transfer of the products to the portioning unit can be exerted by the portioning stops.
  • the takeover of the product by means of the transfer device takes place in such a way that the product is subjected to a compressive force during the transfer of the transfer device into the delivery plane of the circulation conveyor, so that an investment of the product against the transfer device can be forced and rebound effects can at least be reduced.
  • a compressive force can be generated by acting on the upper side of the product with a fluid flow, preferably designed as an air flow.
  • variable in its length discharge end of the horizontal conveyor against the transfer section of the circulating conveyor is pivoted such that a conveying plane of the discharge end is arranged in the transfer position in a common plane with a stacking surface of the guide stop, can by the variability of the horizontal conveyor the portioning unchanged to produce a portion unit in matrix arrangement with a product column with at least two superimposed stacked arranged products are used.
  • a plurality of stop pairs circulate on the circulating conveyor, each with a guide stop and an end stop, wherein the guide stops and the end stops are arranged on mutually independent conveying means of the circulating conveyor, it is possible to use the entire conveying length of the circulating conveyor for the arrangement of positioning stops.
  • the number of pairs of stops according to the between the horizontal conveyor and the vertical conveyor to be bridged distance can be selected. In this case, it is advantageous for minimizing the number of conveying means required to drive the portioning stops if at least two guide stops and at least two end stops of the plurality of stop pairs are driven by means of one conveying means each.
  • the device according to the invention for the production of packaging units in a tubular bag machine has a horizontal conveying device for transferring separated products to a portioning device which serves to produce portion units with a defined arrangement and number of products, and a vertical conveying device for conveying the portion units enveloped by a film web to a singulating device which serves for separating the packaging units, wherein the portioning device serves both for the production of portion units and for the synchronization of the portioning device with the horizontal conveyor device and the vertical conveyor device.
  • the portioning device has at least one stop pair with two portioning stops circulating independently of one another on a circulating conveyor, namely a leading guide stop and a trailing end stop which define a portion unit and which on the circulating conveyor move from a transfer position for transferring products from the horizontal conveyor to a transfer position Transfer of the products to the vertical conveyor can be transferred.
  • the circulation conveyor is provided with a drive device which moves the guide stop and the end stop opposite to the conveying direction of the horizontal conveyor and in the same direction to the conveying direction of the vertical conveyor, and the circulating conveyor has starting from a relative to the horizontal downwardly inclined takeover section to a transfer section an increasingly vertically aligned Portionierrange.
