Apparatus for producing pouches Prior Art

The invention relates to a device for producing bag packages according to the preamble of claim 1. Such a device is already known from practice and is referred to as a so-called "mandrel wheel machine." It serves to provide a stable packaging material consisting of an endless packaging material web, in particular paper

Mold bag packages. For this purpose, the Dornradmaschine a stepwise rotatable mandrel wheel in an axis on the circumference of several, for example, eight, arranged at regular angular intervals to each other

Mandrels are arranged whose cross section is adapted to the cross section of the bag packages to be formed. In addition, in the area of the mandrel wheel, there are also means for forming longitudinal seams on the bag packs, devices for folding shutters, and devices for

in particular gluing the bottom fasteners against the mandrels provided.

To form a bag package, for example with a rectangular cross-section, of an endless packaging material roll is a corresponding

Packaging material cut separated and promoted in the area of the respective mandrel. Thereafter, the packaging material blank is folded around the mandrel by means of folding tools, so that a strip-shaped overlap region is formed, which in particular by gluing a longitudinal seam of the packaging blank or the

Bag pack forms. For example, after a conveying step of 45 °, based on the axis of rotation of the mandrel wheel, a bottom closure is folded against an end face of the mandrel and preferably glued simultaneously by means of further folding devices. The bag packages thus formed are then withdrawn after further rotation of the mandrel wheel of the mandrel wheel and For example, used in a cup chain that further promotes the bag packages to metering, by means of which a filling in the

Opening cross section of the bag packages is metered. Finally, a forming of the head closure takes place on the filled bag packages.

From DE 3231514 Al a device for producing vacuum or inert gas packages is already known. This comprises a bag forming device, a filling device, a folding and sealing device and a

Evacuation device, as well as a conveyor with drivers. To achieve a high expression of packs, the

Beutelformeinrichtungen a mandrel wheel with paired form mandrels, the conveyor per each conveying step length a few carriers, the

Filling a few Füllgutabgabestutzen, the folding and sealing device twice arranged tool sets and Evakuiereinrichtung

Evacuation chambers for holding two bags each. However, this arrangement is not suitable to different packaging with

different products can be filled. Similar

Arrangements in which different packaging materials are often used to make an inner sack and an outer sack

For example, from other publications such as DE 2343955 AI, DE 2512215

AI, DE 1084559 B or DE 6946609 U known.

Gradually come from the packaging industry requirements in which a possible universal applicability of a generic

Device is desired. In particular, there are applications where using the same bag packing format differs

Components should be metered or dispensed in bag packs. This means that, for example, in a first type of

Pouches a product A is to be metered, while in a second type of bag packages, a product B is to be filled. There are also applications in which rag packs vary

Mixing ratios e.g. between two products A and B should have. Usually, the bag packages always have the same (package) format. In order to make the corresponding bag packages for the consumer recognizable, the bag packages have different

(printed) packaging blanks on. In the generic devices For the manufacture of bag packs, it is necessary to provide a different (printed) packaging material web for switching to different products or product mixtures. The thereby required

Umrüstaufwand reduces the performance of the known device.

In particular, if only relatively small product batches are to be run, an economical use with a single generic device is relatively difficult to implement. Although it would be conceivable to use a separate device for each individual type of bag packs or their product compositions, this would be the

At least double investment expenditure.

Disclosure of the invention

Based on the illustrated prior art, the present invention seeks to provide an apparatus for producing bag packages according to the preamble of claim 1 such that it can be used for at least two different bag packages, without requiring a conversion of the device is required. In particular, it should be possible to be able to process differently printed packaging material webs, so that pouches with different products or product mixtures can be produced by means of appropriate metering devices, the composition of which is possible via the addressed printed packaging blanks. This object is achieved in a device for the manufacture of

Bag packs with the features of claim 1 achieved in that in addition to the first feeding at least one second feeding device for feeding and packaging a second packaging blank from a second endless packaging material web is provided, and that the second

Packaging material blank cooperates with the same device for forming a bag package, on which also the first packaging material blank of the bag package is malleable. In other words, this means that the

Device according to the invention comprises at least two feeders for different packaging material webs, which on one and the same

Bag forming device can be processed. Furthermore, the invention provides that the device for dispensing a product, in particular Contents, in the bag packages comprises a plurality of metering devices, each metering device is designed for metering a different product. As a result, it is not necessary to retrofit the device when changing the products to be dosed into the bag packs.

It is essential that the invention should not be limited in its broadest embodiment to the use of the same bag package formats. Rather, it can be made possible by a corresponding embodiment of the means for forming the bag packages that in addition to

different printed or marked packaging blanks also different bag formats on the same device for molding the

Bag packages can be made. Thus, for example, when using a mandrel wheel machine for forming the bag packs, it is conceivable to arrange different formats of thorns on the mandrel wheel, which then interact in each case with the corresponding feed device for the packaging material blank. In addition, the device should not be limited to the mentioned Dornradmaschinen in which usually made of paper bag packages are made, but it is also conceivable to form the means for forming the bag packages such that tubular bag packages can be formed.

Advantageous developments of the device according to the invention for the manufacture of bag packages are listed in the subclaims.

In an expedient refinement, it is provided that the first of the metering devices is manufactured in the one made of the first packaging material blank

Pouch pack the first product dosed and that the further the

Dosing in the bag package produced from the second packaging blank, the further product metered. Thus, with a

Setup different products in this associated different bag packages are made in a flexible manner with only one

Bag making device.

In an expedient development it is provided that a controller is provided for controlling the metering devices and / or the

Feeding. Particularly preferred is an input device

Component of the device. Then the user can be in a particularly simple and flexibly select the number or mix ratio of different products and change them again at any time.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the

Means for forming a bag package as a mandrel wheel stepwise rotatable about an axis with preferably equally spaced angularly spaced thorns for forming the bag packages and with folding and closing means for folding the packaging material blanks around the mandrels and forming closures is formed, and that the at least two Feeders for the packaging material blanks are arranged on the circumferential path of the mandrel wheel in a spaced apart angular position.

So it is conceivable, for example, in (only) two feeders for the packaging material webs to arrange them in particular offset at an angle of 90 ° to each other.

An arrangement in which the at least two feeders are arranged in a spaced-apart angular position makes it possible, in a preferred embodiment, to arrange folding and closing devices between the at least two feeders for the packaging material blanks on the transport path of the mandrel wheel. This allows a clear and mechanically relatively simple construction of the mandrel wheel, in which the individual devices for forming or forming the bag packs on the mandrels can be arranged at spaced-apart positions which are respectively actuatable or actuatable after a corresponding stepwise rotation of the mandrel wheel ,

In a particularly preferred embodiment, it is provided that the spikes have the same format, so that bag packages are molded with the same format. Such a design has the advantage that a particularly high performance of the device can be achieved when bag packs are to be produced with the same content or contents or products. In this case, it is conceivable to use the same packaging material webs on both or all feeders for the packaging material webs.

To make it possible for only one or the other

Bag packs, i. Bag packs with a first or a second

Content to be made exclusively on the respective feeder for the packaging material web are formed, it is moreover provided that the respective other at least one feed device can be deactivated when using the respective feed device for feeding and assembling a packaging material blank.

For filling the bag packages with the different products or product mixtures different possibilities are conceivable. In a first variant, it is proposed that the device for dispensing products into the bag pack comprises a plurality of metering devices which are spaced apart from one another in the conveying direction of the bag packs, wherein each

Dosing device is designed for dosing a different product. Such a design has the advantage that relatively simple trained metering devices can be used, since these each only the

To meter or dose a single product. Different mixtures, i. different percentage ratios, for example, between two products A and B, by a corresponding

Control of the corresponding dosing allowed.

In an alternative embodiment, which is preferred in that it allows a particularly compact construction, it is provided that the

Device for dispensing products into the bag pack as

Multihead weigher is designed with at least two metering devices for different products.

In order to make it possible for the case to be metered into the bag packs in each case only a single product, for example only one product A or only one product B, the apparatus has a relatively high output, it is proposed that each means for dispensing Product in the

Bag packs has a performance that corresponds to the performance of the device for forming the bag packs. In other words, this means that when using a mandrel wheel machine, the mandrel wheel machine can be operated at its maximum power, and that all of the

Dornradmaschine produced bag packages can be filled with one and the same product. In a structurally preferred embodiment when using a multihead weigher is proposed that it has at least two separate product outlets, the product outlets open into a common transfer funnel, at least indirectly via a hopper with the

Opening cross section of the bag package is aligned. Such

Training avoids the mixing of the products already during dosing.

Moreover, in order to achieve the highest possible performance, it is advantageous if an adjustable switch element is arranged in the transfer funnel if the transfer funnel is coupled on the side facing away from the product outlets with two lockable intermediate storage devices for the products, each connected to a transfer funnel are, and when the two transfer hoppers are arranged pivotally in the conveying direction of the bag packs.

Further advantages, features and details of the invention will become apparent from the following description of preferred embodiments and from the drawing.

This shows in:

1 is a simplified representation of an apparatus according to the invention for the manufacture of bag packages using two separate metering devices for the products and

Fig. 2 is a side view of the device of FIG. 1 when using a modified metering device for the products in the form of a multihead weigher.

The same elements or elements with the same function are provided in the figures with the same reference numerals.

1 shows a device 100 according to the invention for producing bag packs 1. The device 100 is shown in FIG

Embodiment designed as a so-called Dornradmaschine, wherein the bag packs 1 from a adhesive or heat-sealable packaging material (paper or Foil) and are formed as a stand-up pouches with rectangular cross-section.

The device 100 comprises a mandrel 10 which rotates stepwise about an axis 11 in the exemplary embodiment in a clockwise direction according to the arrow 14. At the mandrel wheel 10, eight radially outwardly projecting mandrels 12 for forming the bag packs 1 are fastened or arranged at regular angular intervals of 45 ° , In the illustrated embodiment, the mandrels 12 each have the same size or the same cross-section. However, it is also conceivable, for example, two differently shaped or shaped

To use mandrels 12 which alternate with each other at the periphery of the mandrel wheel 10.

The mandrel wheel 10 cooperates with two supply devices 15, 16, which are identically designed in the exemplary embodiment, for packaging material blanks 17, 18. The longitudinal axes of the two packaging material blanks 17, 18 and the

Feeders 15, 16 are offset by an angle α of 90 ° to each other on the circumference of the mandrel wheel 10 is arranged. The feed devices 15, 16 serve to provide a packaging material blanks 17, 18 of the suitable length I for each one mandrel 12 of the mandrel wheel 10 from an endless packaging material web 19, 20 which is stored in the form of a packaging material roll 13. For this purpose, a packaging material cut 17, 18 of the corresponding length I is separated from the packaging material web 19, 20 by means of unillustrated extraction or conveying devices, for which purpose each of the feed devices 15, 16 has a corresponding separating device 21, 22. Since the corresponding technology for supplying or providing a corresponding packaging material blank 17, 18 to a mandrel 12 itself

State of the art and is not essential to the invention, related details will not be further explained at this point.

Aligning with the respective feed device 15, 16 are in the region of the mandrel wheel 10 in the region of the mandrel 12 longitudinal seaming devices 23, 24th

provided for forming respective longitudinal seams by gluing or heat sealing to the mandrel 12 after folding a packaging material blank 17, 18 around the corresponding mandrel 12. Illustratively, it is mentioned that the corresponding folding devices are not shown in FIG. 1, but from the prior art in corresponding ones

Dornradmaschinen are also known. Each 45 ° in the direction of rotation of the mandrel wheel 10 offset to the respective

Feeding means 15, 16 are in the region of the mandrel wheel 12 more

Folding means 25, 26 are provided for forming a bottom closure against an end face of the mandrel 12. In addition, these folding devices 25, 26 preferably comprise adhesive or sealing devices, not shown in detail in detail.

At 90 ° and 135 ° in the direction of rotation of the mandrel wheel 10 offset from the feeder 15 are still moving floor press plates 27 and close

Longitudinal seam press plates 28 for fixing the longitudinal or bottom closure of the bag packages 1 at.

Offset by 180 ° in the direction of rotation of the mandrel wheel 10 to a feeder 15 or 270 ° offset from the other feeder 16 is followed by the mandrel wheel 10, a conveyor 30 for the bag packages 1 formed on the mandrel wheel 10. The conveyor 30 is formed, for example, as an endlessly circulating cup chain 31 with cup walls 32, 33, between each of which a shaped bag package 1 is received. The transfer of the respective bag pack 1 between the cup walls 32, 33 of the

Becherkette 31 takes place by means also not shown, because of the prior art known extraction or transfer devices. Along the conveying direction of the bag packs 1 in the conveying device 30, which is preferably cyclically driven, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, two separate metering devices 35, 36 are arranged. The metering devices 35, 36 are used for dosing or dispensing a product A or a product B. In other words, this means that with the metering device 35 only the product A, and with the metering device 36 only the product B in a bag package. 1 can be delivered. The two metering devices 35, 36 have, viewed in the conveying direction of the bag packages 1, a distance from one another which corresponds to the pitch of the

Bag packs 1 in the cup chain 31 corresponds. However, it can also be provided a multiple of the pitch of the bag packages 1. Furthermore, an input device 42 is provided which communicates with a controller 40. The input device 42 allows an operator to the sequence of the bag packages 1 to be created with each

flexible to fill product A, B to be filled differently. By way of example, the input device 42 shows the sequence AABB which is to be produced. Thus, for example, to correspond to the product A

Packaging material blank 18, which is provided via feeder 16, are created twice in succession, while subsequently two

Bag packs 1, which are formed by the further packaging material blank 17 and filled with the product B, connect. For this purpose, the controller 40 controls both the feeders 15, 16, as well as the

corresponding dosing devices 35, 36 according to later explained.

The mode of operation of the device 100 described so far is explained as follows: The device 100 is intended to produce bag packs 1 with different mixing ratios of the products A and B. For a first mixing ratio of the products A and B, the packaging material blanks 18 which are stored on the second feed device 16 are used for this purpose. This is done because the corresponding mixing ratio of the products A and B or the contents of the bag pack 1 is identified by a corresponding printing or marking of the packaging material blanks 18 to the consumer. In this case, the mandrel wheel 10 is rotated stepwise in each case in the conveying direction, wherein the corresponding packaging material blanks 18 are fed to the respective thorns 12 via the feed device 16. It is essential that the feeding device 15, which is provided for the production of bag packs 1 with a different mixing ratio of the products A and B, is deactivated. This means that after forming the bag packages 1 around the mandrels 12, the mandrel wheel 10 is conveyed past the stations associated with the feeder 15 without the corresponding devices, in particular the longitudinal seaming device 23 and the folding device 25, being activated. Rather, the bottom stations 27 and longitudinal seam press plates 28 are approached as the next stations. Subsequently, the molded from the packaging material blanks 18 arrive

Bag packages 1 in the conveyor 30, where they reach the area of the two metering devices 35, 36. According to the mixing ratio of the products A and B, the corresponding metering devices 35, 36 are controlled such that in each bag pack 1, a corresponding proportion or Percentage of the product A or B is metered. Last will be the

Bag packages 1 closed at the head area by means of a folding and closing device, not shown.

If by means of the device 100 bag packs 1 having a different mixing ratio of the products A and B or another pack contents are to be produced, the packaging material blanks 17 which are stored on the first feed device 15 are used for this purpose. In this case, the first feeder 16 is deactivated. Otherwise applies with respect to the molding of the bag packages 1 and the dosing of the products A and B in the

Bag packs 1 the above explained.

The user can define the sequences to be created in terms of

Bag packages 1, which are formed with a particular packaging material blank 17, 18, and which are metered with a particular product A or B, choose freely. For this purpose, he enters the desired sequence in the input device 42. In the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1, a sequence is shown by way of example with the sequence AABB. This means that the device 100 now creates two bag packages 1 with the second packaging material blank 18 provided for the product A. The bag package 1 to be filled with the product A is formed from the second packaging blank 18 provided by the feed device 16. After two bag packs 1 from the second

Packaging material blank 18, filled with the product A, now follow two

Bag packages 1, with the first packaging material blank 17, from the

Feeder 15 are provided, are formed and filled with the product B. Then the sequence repeats with two bag packages 1 from the second packaging blank 18 and product A to be filled and so forth. For this purpose, the controller 40 operates as follows. First, the feeder

16 so controlled that it supplies the longitudinal seaming means 24 to the corresponding second packaging blank 18. There will be the corresponding

Bag pack 1 for product A created. Subsequently, the mandrel wheel 10 clocks by one clock on. The controller 40 in turn controls the feeder 16 in such a way that the corresponding second packaging material blank 18 for

Creation of the next bag pack 1, which in turn with the product A to be filled, the folding and closing device 24 is supplied.

Then it will continue to clock again. In this cycle, the first bag package 1 for the product A is located at the station 23. The controller 40 controls the feeder 15 so that it does not supply a first packaging material blank 17 for product B. Furthermore, the controller 40 also controls the

Feeding device 16 so on, so that it does not supply a second packaging blank 18. The mandrel wheel 10 clocks again by one station. Also in this position, the feeders 15, 16 are controlled so that no packaging material 17, 18 is supplied. It will be clocked again by one stop. In this state, the controller 40 activates the feeder 15 so that it feeds the first package cut 17 for the product B to the station 23 on the empty mandrel. The feeding device 16 is also activated in such a way that it feeds the second packaging material blank 18 for product A to the station 24. The mandrel wheel 10 then continues to clock. Again lead both feeders 15, 16 their packaging blanks 17, 18 the respective

Stations 23, 24 too. The first bag pack 1 for the product A is now on the station just before transfer to the conveyor 30. The mandrel wheel 10 continues to clock. The two feed devices 15, 16 are controlled so that no packaging material blank 17, 18 is supplied. In this step, the transfer from mandrel wheel 10 takes place on the conveyor 30. In the following

Clock rotates the mandrel wheel 10 again by one position. Also the

Conveyor 30 clocks to one position further. In this position, the first bag package 1 for the product A is not yet in the

Dosing. Also, the second bag package 1 for the product A is already on the conveyor 30. In the next cycle, the mandrel wheel 10 rotates by one

Next position as well as the conveyor 30. The first bag package 1, created from the second packaging blank 18 is now in

Detection area of the first metering device 35 for the product A. The controller 40 controls the metering device 35 so that it metered the product A in the waiting first bag pack 1. In the next cycle is the second bag pack 1, created from the second

Packungszuschnitt 18 in the detection range of the first metering device 35 and is filled with product A. The second metering device 36, under which the first filled with product A bag package 1 is disabled. In the subsequent cycle is the second bag pack 1 from the second

Packing blank 18, already filled with product A, under the second Dosing device 36, which is deactivated. The first bag package 1 from the first package blank 17 for product B is below the metering device 35 for product A, which is deactivated. Then, the further clocking is also the conveyor 30. The first of the bag packages 1 from the first

Packaging material blank 17 is located under the second metering device 36 for the product B, which metered the product B. After renewed further clocking of the conveyor 30 is now also the second of the bag packages 1 from the first packaging material blank 17 under the second metering device 36 and is filled with the product B. Thus, the associated steps for filling the produced with different packaging blanks 17, 18 are

Bag packages 1 completed in the desired order AABB. In the meantime, as already described, bag packs 1 according to the preselected sequence AABB were produced from the associated packaging material blanks 17, 18 and possibly filled accordingly.

Here the user can preselect different sequences like

AAAB / AAAB / .... for a mixing ratio of 80/20, ΑΒΑΒΑ / BABAB / ... or ΑΑΒΒΑ / ABBAA / ... for a mixing ratio of 50/50 or ABBBBA / ABBB / ... for a mixing ratio of 20/80 or ΑΑΑΑΑ / AAAAA / ... for one

Mixing Ratio of 100/0 or BBBBB / BBBBB for 0/100 Mixing Ratio for Exemplary Packaging in Trays of 5x3, 5x4 and 5x2 (Optional) Bag Packs 1. Compound ratios smaller than 80/20 can also be used Preselect input device 42. The device 10 is thus characterized by a high degree of flexibility despite its simple design.

2, a metering device 40 is shown in side view, which can replace the two metering devices 35, 36 of FIG. The

Dosing device 40 is designed as a so-called multi-head weigher. For this purpose, the metering device 40 in an upper region memory 41, 42 for the respective product A and B, respectively. Furthermore, each storage 41, 42 associated with a scale, not shown, for dosing a corresponding amount of the product A or B in a bag package 1. At the bottom region of each store 41, 42, this has a separate product outlet 43, 44, which opens into a common transfer funnel 45. Within the transfer funnel 45, an adjustable between two positions switch element 46 is arranged, which promoted in the transfer funnel 45 products A and B, depending on Position of the switch element 46, in a closable by means of a closure flap 47, 48 intermediate storage element 49, 50 emits in the form of a product shell. Below the two intermediate storage elements 49, 50 is in each case arranged in an axis 51, 52 pivotally arranged hopper 53, 54, the output of which coincides with the opening cross-section of

Bag pack 1 is arranged. Due to the pivotable arrangement of

Hopper 53, 54 is a discharge of the products A and B corresponding to that in the respective intermediate storage element 49, 50 located

Mixing ratio both during stoppage phases, as well as during delivery phases of the bag packages 1 in the cup chain 31 allows.

The device 100 described so far can be modified or modified in many ways, without departing from the spirit of the invention

departing. In particular, the invention should not be limited to the use of mandrel wheels 10 for forming or forming bag packs 1. For example, it is also conceivable to use more than two metering devices 35, 36 or 40 if more than two or different products are to be dispensed into the bag packs 1.
