Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for transporting and inserting separating elements in containers which are each formed from a plurality of containers, wherein adjacent containers are at least partially separated from each other by means of separating elements to be used, and wherein a transport device removes the separating element from a magazine, and transported to an insertion station, with which the respective separating element is inserted in the container.
  • Containers are, for example, bottles, cans, tubes, pouches, each made of metal, glass and / or plastic, so for example PET bottles, but also other packaging, especially those for filling liquid or viscous products but are also suitable for receiving food, but also already to groups (multiple pack, container) combined containers.
  • Container treatment plants are, for example, rinsers, fillers, cappers but also labeling machines. These can be circumferential design or linear design.
  • Continuous-design container treatment systems have a transport star on which the containers are guided past a circular path, for example past labeling devices. Prior to labeling, the containers can be aligned with recognition features, so that each label can be applied to the container in the same orientation.
  • the containers After the containers have been treated in the container treatment plant, they can be fed to a packaging machine.
  • the production of the container is carried out, for example, in a so-called packaging machine in such a way that the containers on a transport plane of a conveyor rising and fed with their container axis in the vertical direction or substantially vertical direction in a mass transport or in a wide container flow in which the containers are in view of distinctive containers and / or features may have an arbitrary orientation, since the former orientation, so alignment is lost.
  • This wide container stream is then converted by lane division into several single-lane container streams.
  • the compartments of the later containers or their container groups forming the single-track container streams the merging of the necessary number of containers in each case to a compacted container group, in which the container with multiple shell or peripheral surfaces, ie with the contact Or contact surfaces abut against each other, and that connecting the container of each group of containers to the compact and solid or stable container.
  • a comprehensive element may be, for example, a carton blank or a foil section, which is placed around the relevant container and fastened accordingly.
  • the cardboard ends can be glued together.
  • the initially applied films can be shrunk in a shrink tunnel.
  • the containers receive a stabilizing base, which is e.g. designed as a carton blank on which the containers stand up.
  • a stabilizing base is useful if the later container, e.g. should be formed from several layers of sub-packages. It can be attacked on the base, so that one sub-package is set to the other. Subsequently, a comprehensive element can be provided to include the stacked containers.
  • the carton blanks are preferably removed from a magazine in the unfolded state and can be folded before or after being fed to the subsequent bundle, with a correspondingly executed folding station being used.
  • a film roll is unrolled to form a film web, the relevant film sections being cut off from the film web.
  • a film cutting station is useful, so that the respective film section the required dimensions of each pack to be packaged Has.
  • a spacer element that is, the separating element can be arranged between the containers of the subsequent container, which is designed for example as a web or for example as a compartment.
  • This compartment is usually formed from a cardboard or cardboard, and is unfolded before insertion into the subsequent container, wherein an insertion station, which can be exemplified as a bridge inserter or compartment inserter, is used. But it is also possible to use a plurality of containers in receiving boxes, wherein the separating elements, so the webs or compartments quasi form honeycomb within the carton, in which the containers are arranged.
  • the DE 10 2006 037 105 A1 deals with a method for assembling bottle packs, in which on both sides of a web a rotary star is provided which pushes bottle necks in brackets on flat carriers. The bottle package is still covered with a tape or wrapping (foil).
  • a device and a method for grouping piece goods along a conveyor line is known.
  • the one-piece elements are individually controllable in their feed movement and / or speed because of the gearless direct drives used along the movement path.
  • the divider elements emerge from below the trajectory, divert a number of containers from the container stream, initially stop the container flow, creating a gap to the separated containers: the divider elements then accelerate and submerge again below the level of trajectory.
  • the combined EP 2 500 296 A1 actually only known before their registration or priority date with one part One-piece fingers, which are arranged on encircling beams, with a drive system, which is formed by gearless direct drives.
  • the DE 10 2011 081 705 A1 also deals with a method and apparatus for grouping containers.
  • the device has two conveyors at different speeds.
  • the second conveyor is faster than the first conveyor.
  • the containers reaching the second conveyor are moved faster than the containers on the first conveyor.
  • a sliding or retaining device By means of a sliding or retaining device, the containers are accelerated on the second conveyor, delayed and / or shifted from each other, so that the original gap is changed.
  • the lagging container is pushed onto the leading container.
  • the corresponding acceleration is achieved by means of linear motor drives, with the individual elements of the sliding or retaining device being individually controllable.
  • Compartments are, as in the DE 10 2007 062 844 A1 described, structures which have at least one longitudinal web, and at least one transverse web.
  • a separating element in the sense of the invention is therefore a compartment, wherein a separating element in the context of the invention may also be only a single web, which is supplied to the container, of course, a plurality of isolated webs may be provided, but not as the individual elements of Compartments are interconnected.
  • drivers are arranged on a transport chain. The drivers push the unfolded compartments upright on a sliding plate.
  • the DE 103 53 103 A1 also discloses a tray transport apparatus and a tray insertion apparatus in which the compartments have a foldable flap for stabilizing the compartments during transport on a chute. Also the US 2005/235607 A1 shows a device for arranging compartments, in which the compartments are cyclically removed by means of a suction device from a magazine and introduced into a container group.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a device of the type mentioned input, in which the transporting and inserting of separating elements is simplified.
  • transport device 1 the device for transporting and inserting of separating elements 10, hereinafter referred to as transport device 1, as a central element a linear conveyor 2.1 with a closed trajectory 2.2, on which movement elements 3 rotate in a common direction A, wherein at the respective moving element 3 at least a gripping element is arranged. At the movement elements 3 more grippers can be arranged, which can be controlled independently of each other.
  • the moving elements 3 essentially revolve in a common direction A means that the moving elements 3 may be moved occasionally and in a direction other than the common, actually predetermined direction of rotation A, if, for example, to change a distance to the given circumstances the following or leading movement element 3 makes sense.
  • this is also another advantage of the invention in that the movement elements 3 can be controlled independently of one another on the movement path 2.2 in their respective movement, which will be discussed later.
  • the movement elements 3 can also be referred to as movers or carriages because they are designed in this way.
  • the trajectory 2.2 has linearly oriented trajectory sections 5.1, 5.2 and arranged therebetween deflecting 6.1, 6.2, so that a closed path of movement 2.2 is formed.
  • the linearly oriented trajectory sections which are also referred to as the rear (5.1) and as the return run (5.2), may have curved or obliquely oriented sections, in order, for example. compensate for a height difference, or to form, for example, a change in direction in the horizontal direction.
  • the movement elements 3 are individually controllable, so that each movement element can have a respective speed.
  • the movement elements 3 are independently controllable so that the respective movement element at the respective movement path section in its speed equal to other movement elements located on the respective movement path section 3, but this relevant movement element can also be accelerated, decelerated or even briefly reversed in its direction of movement relative to other movement elements 3 located on the same movement path 2.2 respectively on the same movement path section.
  • This is advantageous since a very small number of movement elements 3 can be provided, since the movement elements 3 moving along the return strand can overtake the movement elements 3 moving along the rearward path.
  • the trajectory 2.2 can of course have a lock for discharging unneeded or to be checked moving elements 3. Of course, the lock can also be used for sluicing.
  • the respective movement elements 3 can be controlled, for example, so that they are moved at a takeover of the separating elements with adapted speed, or even braked and subsequently experience a speed build-up, so that virtually a gentle takeover of the separating elements takes place, which along eg an acceleration section of the trajectory 2.2 be spaced to the following.
  • the linear transporter is designed in the manner of an electromagnetic path, wherein the movement elements 3 rotate gearless at this directly controllable.
  • an interface of the movement path 2.2 can be connected to a control and regulation unit.
  • the linear transporter can therefore be an electromagnetic direct drive.
  • the actual drive is effected by a dynamically controllable electromagnetic field along the rail or track, whereby the on the moving element, which can also be referred to as a mover arranged permanent magnet / -packung is moved by the magnetic force or the magnetic field controlled.
  • the grippers arranged on the movement elements 3 can carry out any movement relative to the linear transporter but also based on the movement element itself, ie they can be controlled correspondingly in their degrees of freedom. An activation takes place in an ideal embodiment via a central unit, which can also cause the control of the movement elements 3.
  • the grippers arranged on the movement elements 3 can remove the relevant separating element 10, also called webs or compartments, from the magazine 7.
  • the movement elements 3 can be temporarily stopped or very slow to take over the separating elements, so that a secure acquisition is guaranteed.
  • the flat-folded separating elements are gripped by a removal element, such as, for example, a circumferential suction gripper 8 and handed over to the grippers arranged on the movement elements 3, for which purpose the speed in the transfer region of the two elements is synchronized.
  • the separating elements can then be transported by means of the grippers held on the moving elements 3 in the direction of the insertion station II, where they are optionally decelerated again, or even stopped at short notice.
  • the advantage is that the movement elements 3 are individually controllable, wherein a predetermined pitch of attached to a rotating chain driver is obsolete.
  • the containers 20 are conveyed in the pulp or in alleys on the transport plane 21 in the transport direction B and divided into container groups 23 by means of a dividing unit 22 or their dividing tools 24.

  • a gripper 4 attached to a moving element 3 is in the approach or is already in a parking position in order to take over the separating element 10 or moves into the area of the supports in order to take over the compartment with the grippers open.
  • the moving element 3 and its gripper 4 form the support 50, are provided in the support fingers or webs on which the unfolded separating elements 10 can be placed up to the closure of the gripper 4.
  • the support fingers or webs ideally be part of the gripper 4.
  • the grippers 4 can also take over the separating elements 10 directly from the suction grippers 8, for which purpose ideally a slow movement and / or a short stop of the movement elements 3 is expedient.
  • the displaceable supports are displaced so that the separating element 10 held by the grippers 4 can be moved to the transfer position via the previously divided container 23.
  • the gripper 4 of the separator 10 falls into the divided container.
  • the group of containers of the container in this area can be pushed over a bottom curvature or projection in order to achieve larger gaps between the individual products in the running direction can be reached in this transfer area by guide rails between the individual rows of products.
  • the separating elements 10 designed as compartments can be removed from the magazine 7 and along a trajectory section 5.1, 6.1 unfold. It is therefore useful if a plurality of grippers 4 are arranged on the movement element 3, wherein the grippers 4 are movable relative to each other, so that unfolding due to the relative movement of the gripper 4 is possible ( Fig. 5 . 6 ).
  • the relevant flat separator 10 is first sucked, which is why on the moving elements 3 and elements with a suction function can be arranged, of course, the gripper 4 itself may have a suction function.
  • the grippers can perform mechanical holding functions.
  • the complete erection of the separating element is completed (not shown) only shortly before insertion by a pivoting or rotary movement of the gripper.
  • the separating element 10 is largely transported in a flat orientation to the transport direction and / or in the fully or partially folded state.
  • the respective vacuum and / or medium supply is not a problem.
  • the supply can be arranged on the movement path 2.2, wherein the vacuum and / or medium is tapped, or the moving element carries a corresponding supply as a memory in itself.
  • the storage tank would have to be refilled soon enough, which is why the optional lock is planned can be.
  • the memory can be embodied as an energy store or the like, so that the functional units arranged on the movement elements 3 can be supplied with the necessary energy.
  • the particular advantage is therefore that the dividing elements 10 need not be completely unfolded immediately, but remain flat or partially unfolded until shortly before insertion.
  • the feed path can be made shorter than is the case with known Trennmaschineinsetzern.
  • the separating elements 10 can now be transported held on the grippers 4, without the dividing elements 10 having to get up on a slideway.
  • the hitherto customary slideway can even be dispensed with if the separating elements 10 are kept suspended on the grippers 4 and transported in a quasi-floating manner.
  • the separating elements 10 may be held suspended or upstanding on the moving elements 3. It is obvious that the advantage of the invention is that the separating elements 10 can be transported in a stable position without them twisting, shifting or aligning in another, undesired position.

  • the gripping element 4 or the receiving device of the gripping element is mounted on the moving element 3, so that a rotational or pivoting movement can be performed in order to orient the gripping element relative to the moving element or the trajectory 2.2 differently.
  • the separating elements 10 are then transferred in the necessary position to the insertion station II. If the separating element 10 is transferred to the insertion station II, the moving element, ideally along the return run 5.2, and optionally along the deflection 6.2 accelerated so as to take over a further separating element 10 can.
