Definitions
- the present invention relates to a flat-bed processing machine equipped with one or more modules according to claim 1.
- the invention finds a particularly advantageous, but not exclusive, application in the field of the manufacture of packaging boxes, particularly boxes for medicines.
- the operator can chase them and / or drop them for example using a compressed air gun (see for example the document US 2005/0218285 A1 ) which generates dust and dirt that can then foul the machine and prevent its proper operation, or even pollute and contaminate the production in progress.
- a compressed air gun see for example the document US 2005/0218285 A1
- the use of such a gun may result in the cutouts fly into the machine and are deposited in another place, which affects the proper functioning of the latter and is not at all effective because the operator must restart his intervention.
- An object of the invention is therefore to provide a module for a flat object processing machine which improves the solutions of the state of the art. More precisely, one of the aims of the invention is to propose a module which makes it possible to ensure an effective purge of the machine of the blanks which have fallen into it during the production process. Another object of the invention is to provide a machine that is simple to implement and effective for the evacuation of such cuts and safely for the operator.
- a flat object is defined as being any flattened and thin object, regardless of its outline, its format or the material that composes it, such as a whole sheet, a precut sheet, a set of poses or cuts attached punctually to them. to each other, an individual pose or cut, a folding box, etc.
- a flat object can be made of any material, including paper, compact cardboard, corrugated cardboard, plastic, etc.
- a flat object processing machine is equipped with at least one module and has the claimed technical characteristics.
- the Fig. 1 illustrates a flat objects processing machine being a packaging manufacturing machine, type folder-gluer 100.
- the flat objects are thus cuts, most often cardboard.
- Such machines are generally formed of a succession of modules M each performing one or several folding and gluing operations entering the manufacturing process for the purpose of manufacturing folding boxes made by the machine 100.
- the folder-gluer 100 is composed of a feeder 110, an alignment module 120, a quality control module 130, a braille character embossing module 140, a precasement module 150, a gluing module 160, a folding module 170, an ejection module 175, a transfer module 180 and a receiving module 190.
- the Fig. 2 illustrates in perspective a view of a module M of the folder-gluer 100.
- the illustrated module M is in a stripped form which means that it can be any module of the folder-gluer 100 and that its function is not decisive in the context of the description of the present invention.
- the features that will be described in connection with the present invention are therefore applicable to any module of a production machine.
- the module M comprises a support structure, with two side walls 1 and 2 supported by feet 3.
- the module M also comprises two cross members 4 which mechanically connect the side walls 1 and 2 between them.
- the support structure is located below the work area in which cut processing is performed. The cuts are transported along a given transport path above the support structure.
- the processing machine and more particularly the module M, is equipped with a cutout evacuation system.
- the evacuation system comprises deflection means.
- the deflection means are able to evacuate any cut-out falling under the transport path, by deflecting the fall of the cutout towards a dedicated recovery zone.
- the Figs. 3A and 3B illustrate details ( Fig. 3A in perspective, Fig. 3B cross-section) of the transom 4 referenced in Fig. 2 .
- the deflection means comprise at least one first deflector member 5 adapted to deflect the fall of the cutouts downwards, when these cuts arrive above a support structure portion.
- the first deflector member 5 is favorably positioned in an inclined manner, above a portion of support structure extending under the transport path of the cuts.
- the first deflector member 5 advantageously comprises minus an inclined plane which is oriented in a substantially longitudinal direction with respect to the direction of transport or circulation of the cuts (Arrow F in Fig. 1 ).
- the first deflector member 5 is preferably integral with the support structure portion over which it extends.
- the first deflector member 5 is in the form of a cover 7 which is secured to the cross member 4.
- This cover 7 is not flat, but of convex shape with two inclined planes 8 and 9 in roof form. The purpose of this particular form is to create an unstable position for a cutout that would fall over the crossbar 4.
- This feature solves the problem of the state of the art, namely that it prevents the cuts to be deposited on the crossbar 4, and all the more easily when the size of the cut is less than the width of the crossbar 4.
- the cover 7 may also have a single inclined plane, the important thing being the instability of the position for a cut-out.
- the evacuation system preferably comprises first expulsion means that are capable of evacuating any cutout present on the first deflector member 5.
- first expulsion means that are capable of evacuating any cutout present on the first deflector member 5.
- the first expulsion means comprise at least one blowing member which is capable of generating a pulsed air flow at the level of the upper surface of the first deflector member 5, i.e. of the cover 7.
- the blower unit which comprises a pipe 10 ( Fig. 3B ) and one or more nozzles 11 ( Fig. 3A ).
- the compressed air used can easily be taken from the machine which in general uses pressurized air in certain production operations.
- expulsion means are of course optional and one can choose to increase the inclination of the planes 8 and 9 to do without. It is also possible to use other equivalent means, for example mechanical elements that push a dropped cut, such as for example a roll implanted between the two inclined planes 8 and 9 and capable of pushing the cutout on one side or the other .
- expulsion means can be implemented on command of the operator, by means of a command C, or automatically, or be in function permanently.
- the deflection means comprise at least a second deflector member adapted to deflect the fall of the blanks to the dedicated recovery zone, when these cuts arrive below the support structure.
- Each second deflector member is favorably positioned in an inclined manner, below a portion of support structure extending under the transport path of the cutouts.
- Each second deflector member advantageously comprises at least one inclined plane which is oriented in a direction substantially transverse to the direction of transport of the cuts F.
- the deflection means preferably comprise a single second deflector member which extends under substantially the entire support structure portion which is located under the transport path of the cuts.
- the second deflector member comprises two lower covers 15 and 16 (see Figs. 1 and 4A ). These covers 15 and 16 are used to recover the cuts falling into the machine from the transport path, but also from sleepers 4 to prevent them from falling to the ground under the machine, or under the module M.
- a first cover 15 forms an inclined plane, so that the cutouts will all slide to a recovery zone which is on the front of the module, and the machine. As a result, the blanks do not fall loose anywhere under the machine but are directed to a defined area of recovery.
- the illustrated proposal is only an example and one can provide a cover 15 having a plane inclined in another direction, or ending in recovery bins, the idea being that the cuts are evacuated outside the module M or in an area of the module M easily accessible to the operator.
- the cover 16 in addition to its cutout evacuation function, also covers means making it possible to prevent the cutouts from being blocked on the cover 15.
- the evacuation system advantageously comprises second expulsion means capable of evacuate any cutout present on the second deflector member.
- the second expulsion means advantageously comprise at least one blowing member adapted to generate a pulsed air flow at the upper surface of a second deflector member.
- This blowing member is typically equipped with a duct 22 which blows air laterally, for example through nozzles, in the direction of the inclined plane 15 (from top to bottom). Arrows A in the Fig. 4B illustrate the blown air which thus ensures that the cutouts descend along the inclined plane 15 for their evacuation.
- This blowing member can be actuated on request by the operator, or automatically, or operate continuously, similarly to those located at the cover 7.
- the operator uses the command C to operate the expulsion means 10, 11, and 22 when he wants to purge the machine of all the cuts that fell.
- the cuts purged by the system can finally be retrieved by the operator outside the machine, either manually or by means of recovery means (eg bins) which will be placed for example appropriately at the end of the hood 15.
- recovery means eg bins
- the first and second embodiments may be used alone or in combination according to the desired embodiment.
- One or more modules may include the flat object disposal system.
- the machine parts and modules described above can be formed in any suitable material.
- the covers 7, 8, 15 and 16 may be formed of metal or plastic.

Description
La présente invention concerne une machine de traitement d'objets plats équipée avec un ou plusieurs modules selon la revendication 1. L'invention trouve une application particulièrement avantageuse, mais non exclusive, dans le domaine de la fabrication des boîtes d'emballage, notamment des boîtes pour médicaments.The present invention relates to a flat-bed processing machine equipped with one or more modules according to
Dans l'industrie de l'emballage, la fabrication de boîtes s'effectue traditionnellement en ligne, en pliant et en collant des découpes au moyen d'une machine communément appelée plieuse-colleuse, voir par exemple le document
Au cours du processus de traitement des découpes, il arrive que certaines découpes quittent le chemin de transport et tombent en dessous, par exemple en dessous des systèmes de transport des modules de la machine. Ces découpes peuvent se retrouver sur des parties de machines, posées en équilibre, voire même peuvent tomber sur le sol en dessous de la machine. Si ces découpes sont accessibles par l'opérateur de la machine, il est possible que celui-ci les saisisse et les réintroduise dans le flux de production, par exemple à l'entrée de la machine ou du module dans lequel elles sont tombées.During the cut processing process, some cuttings sometimes leave the transport path and fall below, for example below the transport systems of the modules of the machine. These cuts can be found on parts of machines, placed in balance, or even can fall on the ground below the machine. If these cuts are accessible by the operator of the machine, it is possible that it seizes and reintroduces them into the workflow, for example at the entrance of the machine or module in which they fell.
Alternativement, si les découpes ne sont pas accessibles facilement, l'opérateur peut les chasser et/ou les faire tomber par exemple en utilisant un pistolet à air comprimé (voir par exemple le document
De plus, dans le domaine de la production des emballages de médicaments, des pratiques très strictes imposent des conditions particulières de fonctionnement: notamment, lors d'un changement de lot d'emballages, c'est-à-dire lorsque qu'un nouvel emballage différent (par exemple d'une taille différente, d'un grammage différent, d'une couleur différente ou encore avec une impression dans une langue différente) est introduit dans la machine, les utilisateurs veulent être sûrs que la machine a été correctement purgée de toutes les découpes du lot précédent pour éviter tout mélange en sortie de machine. En effet, si les dimensions des emballages sont proches, mais quand même différentes, des mélanges ne sont pas forcément détectables à l'oeil nu et sont sources de problèmes dans la suite du processus de fabrication.In addition, in the field of the production of drug packaging, very strict practices impose special operating conditions: in particular, when a batch of packaging changes, that is to say when a new different packaging (eg different size, different grammage, different color or printing in a different language) is introduced into the machine, users want to be sure that the machine has been properly purged of all the cuts of the previous batch to avoid any mixing at the output of the machine. Indeed, if the dimensions of the packages are close, but still different, mixtures are not necessarily detectable to the naked eye and cause problems in the subsequent manufacturing process.
En conséquence, non seulement tous les modules individuels doivent être vides et ne plus contenir de découpes du lot différent précédent, mais en plus la machine elle-même doit être vidée de toute découpe qui serait tombée dans celle-ci au cours du processus de traitement par la machine.As a result, not only all the individual modules must be empty and no longer contain cutouts of the previous different batch, but in addition the machine itself must be emptied of any cuts that would have fallen into it during the treatment process. by the machine.
La solution la plus simple est bien évidemment de procéder à une inspection visuelle et à une évacuation ciblée des découpes tombées qui sont découvertes par l'opérateur de la machine. Cette inspection dépend néanmoins de l'attention de l'opérateur. Celui-ci peut en théorie ne pas effectuer cette inspection par inattention ou par manque de temps. Il peut aussi l'effectuer de façon partielle et dans ce cas l'utilisation d'un pistolet à air comprimé peut entraîner un encrassement de la machine, si ce n'est le retour de découpes au sein de la machine.The easiest solution is obviously to carry out a visual inspection and a targeted evacuation of the cutouts that are discovered by the operator of the machine. This inspection nevertheless depends on the attention of the operator. It can theoretically not perform this inspection by inattention or lack of time. It can also be done partially and in this case the use of a compressed air gun can lead to fouling of the machine, if not the return of cuts in the machine.
Cette solution simple n'assure donc pas une purge optimale et certaine de la machine. De plus, pour des raisons de sécurité évidentes, il est préférable d'éviter qu'un opérateur exécute une intervention dans laquelle il introduirait une main ou un bras dans la machine à la recherche de découpes tombées.This simple solution does not ensure an optimal purge of the machine. In addition, for obvious safety reasons, it is best to avoid an operator performing an intervention in which he would introduce a hand or an arm in the machine in search of fallen cutouts.
Un but de l'invention est par conséquent de proposer un module pour une machine de traitement d'objets plats qui améliore les solutions de l'état de la technique. Plus précisément, un des buts de l'invention est de proposer un module qui permet d'assurer une purge effective de la machine des découpes qui sont tombées dans celle-ci au cours du processus de production. Un autre but de l'invention est de proposer une machine qui soit simple à mettre en oeuvre et efficace pour l'évacuation de telles découpes et en toute sécurité pour l'opérateur.An object of the invention is therefore to provide a module for a flat object processing machine which improves the solutions of the state of the art. More precisely, one of the aims of the invention is to propose a module which makes it possible to ensure an effective purge of the machine of the blanks which have fallen into it during the production process. Another object of the invention is to provide a machine that is simple to implement and effective for the evacuation of such cuts and safely for the operator.
Un objet plat est défini comme étant tout objet aplati et de faible épaisseur, indépendamment de son contour, de son format ou du matériau qui le compose, tel qu'une feuille entière, une feuille prédécoupée, un ensemble de poses ou découpes attachées ponctuellement les unes aux autres, une pose ou découpe individuelle, une boîte pliante, etc. Par ailleurs, un tel objet plat peut être réalisé dans un matériau quelconque, et notamment en papier, en carton compact, en carton ondulé, en matière plastique, etc.A flat object is defined as being any flattened and thin object, regardless of its outline, its format or the material that composes it, such as a whole sheet, a precut sheet, a set of poses or cuts attached punctually to them. to each other, an individual pose or cut, a folding box, etc. Furthermore, such a flat object can be made of any material, including paper, compact cardboard, corrugated cardboard, plastic, etc.
Selon la présente invention, une machine de traitement d'objets plats, est équipée avec au moins un module et présente les caractéristiques techniques revendiquées.According to the present invention, a flat object processing machine is equipped with at least one module and has the claimed technical characteristics.

La plieuse-colleuse 100 est composée d'un margeur 110, d'un module d'alignement 120, d'un module de contrôle qualité 130, d'un module de gaufrage de caractères braille 140, d'un module de précassage 150, d'un module d'encollage 160, d'un module de pliage 170, d'un module d'éjection 175, d'un module de transfert 180 et d'un module de réception 190.

Le module M comprend une structure support, avec deux parois latérales 1 et 2 supportées par des pieds 3. Le module M comprend également deux traverses 4 qui connectent mécaniquement les parois latérales 1 et 2 entre elles. On peut bien entendu prévoir une seule traverse 4 ou plus de deux traverses 4 en fonction de la longueur du module par exemple, l'illustration de la
Selon l'invention, la machine de traitement, et plus particulièrement le module M, est équipée avec un système d'évacuation des découpes. Dans une première variante de réalisation, le système d'évacuation comporte des moyens de déviation. Les moyens de déviation sont aptes à évacuer toute découpe tombant sous le chemin de transport, en déviant la chute de la découpe vers une zone de récupération dédiée.According to the invention, the processing machine, and more particularly the module M, is equipped with a cutout evacuation system. In a first variant embodiment, the evacuation system comprises deflection means. The deflection means are able to evacuate any cut-out falling under the transport path, by deflecting the fall of the cutout towards a dedicated recovery zone.

Le premier organe déflecteur 5 est favorablement positionné de façon inclinée, au dessus d'une portion de structure support s'étendant sous le chemin de transport des découpes. Le premier organe déflecteur 5 comprend de manière avantageuse au moins un plan incliné qui est orienté suivant une direction sensiblement longitudinale par rapport à la direction de transport ou de circulation des découpes (Flèche F en
Le premier organe déflecteur 5 est préférentiellement solidaire de la portion de structure support au dessus de laquelle elle s'étend. Dans cet exemple de réalisation, le premier organe déflecteur 5 se présente sous la forme d'un capot 7 qui est solidarisé à la traverse 4. Ce capot 7 n'est pas plat, mais de forme convexe avec deux plans inclinés 8 et 9 en forme de toit. Le but de cette forme particulière est de créer une position instable pour une découpe qui tomberait au-dessus la traverse 4.The
Cette caractéristique permet de résoudre le problème de l'état de la technique, à savoir qu'elle empêche les découpes de se déposer sur la traverse 4, et ce d'autant plus facilement quand la taille de la découpe est inférieure à la largeur de la traverse 4.This feature solves the problem of the state of the art, namely that it prevents the cuts to be deposited on the
En donnant une forme avec deux plans inclinés au capot 7, toute découpe va continuer sa chute dans la machine grâce à la gravité. Le capot 7 peut également avoir un seul plan incliné, l'important étant l'instabilité de la position pour une découpe tombée.By giving a shape with two inclined planes to the cover 7, any cutting will continue its fall into the machine thanks to gravity. The cover 7 may also have a single inclined plane, the important thing being the instability of the position for a cut-out.
Dans une deuxième variante de réalisation, le système d'évacuation comporte préférentiellement des premiers moyens d'expulsion qui sont aptes à évacuer toute découpe présente sur le premier organe déflecteur 5. Dans cette variante, et pour compenser le cas extrême dans lequel une découpe se retrouve en équilibre entre les deux plans inclinés 8 et 9 du capot 7 et reste dans cette position qui est non-désirée, on peut utiliser des moyens supplémentaires d'expulsion. Ces premiers moyens d'expulsion forcent le mouvement de la découpe vers le bas.In a second variant embodiment, the evacuation system preferably comprises first expulsion means that are capable of evacuating any cutout present on the
De manière favorable, les premiers moyens d'expulsion comportent au moins un organe de soufflage qui est apte à générer un flux d'air pulsé au niveau de la surface supérieure du premier organe déflecteur 5, i.e. du capot 7.Favorably, the first expulsion means comprise at least one blowing member which is capable of generating a pulsed air flow at the level of the upper surface of the
Dans les
Ces moyens d'expulsion sont bien entendu optionnels et on peut choisir d'augmenter l'inclinaison des plans 8 et 9 pour s'en passer. On peut également utiliser d'autres moyens équivalents, par exemple des éléments mécaniques qui poussent une découpe tombée, comme par exemple un rouleau implanté entre les deux plans inclinés 8 et 9 et capable de pousser la découpe d'un côté ou de l'autre.These expulsion means are of course optional and one can choose to increase the inclination of the
De tels moyens d'expulsion peuvent être mis en oeuvre sur commande de l'opérateur, grâce à une commande C, ou de manière automatique, ou encore être en fonction en permanence.Such expulsion means can be implemented on command of the operator, by means of a command C, or automatically, or be in function permanently.
De manière préférentielle, les moyens de déviation comportent au moins un deuxième organe déflecteur apte à dévier la chute des découpes vers la zone de récupération dédiée, lorsque ces découpes arrivent en dessous de la structure support. Chaque deuxième organe déflecteur est favorablement positionné de façon inclinée, en dessous d'une portion de structure support s'étendant sous le chemin de transport des découpes.Preferably, the deflection means comprise at least a second deflector member adapted to deflect the fall of the blanks to the dedicated recovery zone, when these cuts arrive below the support structure. Each second deflector member is favorably positioned in an inclined manner, below a portion of support structure extending under the transport path of the cutouts.
Chaque deuxième organe déflecteur comprend avantageusement au moins un plan incliné qui est orienté suivant une direction sensiblement transversale par rapport à la direction de transport des découpes F. Les moyens de déviation comportent de préférence un unique deuxième organe déflecteur qui s'étend sous sensiblement toute la portion de structure support qui est située sous le chemin de transport des découpes.Each second deflector member advantageously comprises at least one inclined plane which is oriented in a direction substantially transverse to the direction of transport of the cuts F. The deflection means preferably comprise a single second deflector member which extends under substantially the entire support structure portion which is located under the transport path of the cuts.
Le deuxième organe déflecteur comprend deux capots inférieurs 15 et 16 (voir
Plus précisément, un premier capot 15 forme un plan incliné, de telle façon que les découpes tombées vont toutes glisser vers une zone de récupération qui se trouve sur le devant du module, et de la machine. En conséquence, les découpes ne tombent pas en vrac n'importe où sous la machine mais sont dirigées vers une zone définie de récupération. La proposition illustrée n'est qu'un exemple et on peut prévoir un capot 15 ayant un plan incliné dans un autre sens, ou se terminant dans des bacs de récupération, l'idée étant que les découpes soient évacuées à l'extérieur du module M ou dans une zone du module M facilement accessible à l'opérateur.Specifically, a
Le capot 16, outre sa fonction d'évacuation de découpes, couvre également des moyens permettant d'éviter que les découpes ne restent bloquées sur le capot 15. Le système d'évacuation comporte de manière favorable des deuxièmes moyens d'expulsion, aptes à évacuer toute découpe présente sur le deuxième organe déflecteur.The
Les deuxièmes moyens d'expulsion comportent avantageusement au moins un organe de soufflage apte à générer un flux d'air pulsé au niveau de la surface supérieure d'un deuxième organe déflecteur.The second expulsion means advantageously comprise at least one blowing member adapted to generate a pulsed air flow at the upper surface of a second deflector member.
Cet organe de soufflage est typiquement équipé avec une conduite 22 qui souffle de l'air latéralement par exemple au travers de buses, dans le sens du plan incliné 15 (du haut vers le bas). Des flèches A dans la
Cet organe de soufflage peut être actionné sur demande par l'opérateur, ou de façon automatique, ou fonctionner en permanence, de manière analogue à ceux situés au niveau du capot 7.This blowing member can be actuated on request by the operator, or automatically, or operate continuously, similarly to those located at the cover 7.
De façon préférable, l'opérateur utilise la commande C pour actionner les moyens d'expulsion 10, 11, et 22 lorsqu'il veut purger la machine de toutes les découpes qui sont tombées.Preferably, the operator uses the command C to operate the expulsion means 10, 11, and 22 when he wants to purge the machine of all the cuts that fell.
Les découpes purgées par le système peuvent finalement être récupérées par l'opérateur en dehors de la machine, soit manuellement, soit par des moyens annexes de récupération (par exemples des bacs) qui seront placés par exemple de façon appropriée à l'extrémité du capot 15.The cuts purged by the system can finally be retrieved by the operator outside the machine, either manually or by means of recovery means (eg bins) which will be placed for example appropriately at the end of the
Ainsi en utilisant les moyens proposés par la présente invention, un opérateur peut facilement purger de façon certaine une machine de toutes les découpes qui y seraient tombées, sans intervention manuelle dans la machine. Ce système est par conséquent très efficace et remplit les exigences de sécurité.Thus, using the means proposed by the present invention, an operator can easily purge a machine of all the cuts that would have fallen without manual intervention in the machine. This system is therefore very efficient and fulfills the security requirements.
Les modes d'exécution illustrés dans la présente demande le sont à titre d'exemples qui ne doivent pas être considérés comme limitatifs. Des variations sont possibles dans le cadre de la protection revendiquée, par exemple en faisant appel à des moyens équivalents.The embodiments illustrated in the present application are examples which should not be considered as limiting.
