Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a coding device for coding bundle packs, in particular cigarette packs, a method for coding a bundle pack and a labeling system with a coding device.
  • An encoder has a conveyor and a coding unit, wherein the conveyor has a cyclically driven conveyor belt for conveying the bundle packs.
  • the coding unit encodes at least one bundle pack during a standstill of the conveyor belt.
  • Such packs are common in the tobacco industry to pick the packaged in cartons easier.
  • these bundle packs are also known as cigarette rods and usually consist of a plurality of, for example ten, cigarette packs which are combined in rows, for example two rows, to form a container. In order to fix the container, this is usually wrapped with at least one outer sheath.
  • the outer envelope may be formed, for example, from paper, cardboard or a plastic film.
  • the bundle pack 2 here consists of a total of ten Zigartettenpierechen 2a, which are arranged in two rows of five Zigartettenpierechen 2a. As in Fig. 1 To recognize the cigarette packets 2a are arranged so that they lie in the longitudinal direction with a side surface and in the transverse direction with one of the two largest surfaces. It is also conceivable, however, that the bundle pack 2 consists of more or fewer than ten packets of cigarettes 2a, which can also be arranged in a different formation.
  • the individual packets of cigarettes 2a usually have an outer wrapper made of cellophane.
  • the bundle packs 2 are usually fixed by an outer sheath of cellophane.
  • this encoding fulfills several purposes.
  • a machine-readable coding enables a simplified identification since, for example, batch number, manufacturer, date of manufacture and further information can be retrieved quickly and easily.
  • this code can also be used to simultaneously apply a barcode for sale to end customers.
  • Such a coding device is for example from the EP 2 352 676 A1 known.
  • printed labels are affixed to the bundle packs.
  • the packs of packs placed on a conveyor belt are cyclically fed to a coding unit which applies the label during the stoppage of the conveyor belt.
  • the raw labels are wound up on a roll-like drum.
  • the drum is unwound, the label printed and then glued to the bundle pack.
  • the EP 2 352 676 A1 to arrange two such coding units in series.
  • the redundant coding unit is intended to code the bundle packs in case of failure of the first coding unit, for example, when new raw labels are to be inserted.
  • the coding device is distinguished from the prior art in that the coding unit has at least one laser or at least one laser unit for applying the coding, in particular in the form of a laser inscription.
  • the egg chains are therefore not printed and glued, but the bundle or each einzlene of the bundle forming Zigartettenpierechen is coded directly, so the use of Consumables are largely reduced. Also results from the coding by means of laser and an advantageous processing time, since less than 500 msec are sufficient for this.
  • the coding is also durable, tamper-proof, independent of weather conditions and can also be attached to the pack of cigarettes after production of the bundle pack. For example, moisture can not falsify the encoding or make it illegible. Also, for example, the origin of each packet of cigarettes can be reconstructed.
  • the bundle packings are provided with an at least partially transparent outer wrapper, wherein the transparent outer wrapper is permeable to the laser beam emitted by the laser, at least in the region of the laser inscription.
  • the bundle pack has an inner covering of an organic material, for example paper or cardboard, which is then laser-marked.
  • the inner wrapper is not mandatory, because the coding can be applied directly to every single Zigartettenpierechen.
  • the transparent outer wrapper of each packet of cigarettes - if present - is also permeable to the laser beam emitted by the laser.
  • the coding can thus be applied either to the bundle pack as such, or to the individual bundle pack forming Zigartettenpierechen. In the following, therefore, both ways are understood by coding a bundle pack.
  • the conveyor has at least one positioning means which positions the pack to be encoded during the standstill of the conveyor belt in the region of the coding unit or in a position.
  • This has the advantage that all bundles of packages to be coded are coded essentially in the same place. Thus, a high coding quality and repeatability can be achieved.
  • the positioning means has at least one roller, wherein the roller is arranged to the conveyor belt such that the bundle pack to be coded is arranged between the conveyor belt and the roller during the stoppage of the conveyor belt.
  • the role of a resilient or flexible material for example of a sponge-like material.
  • the positioning means has a vacuum device for sucking the bundle pack.
  • the vacuum device comprises bores which come into contact with the bundle pack in the region of the coding unit.
  • This vacuum device can be designed as a vacuum device with vacuum bores and holds the container device in the region of the coding unit.
  • the conveyor belt may additionally have a surface with a high coefficient of friction or a high roughness.
  • tolerances in the range of, for example, ⁇ 0.5 mm can be adhered to during coding.
  • such high delays of up to 60 m / sec 2 can be achieved, so that overall the process time can be reduced.
  • the conveyor belt has recordings for the bundle packs. These recordings may be formed, for example, as a carrier, studs, stop, recess or projection. In particular, it is expedient if the receptacles extend substantially vertically to or from the conveyor belt. This makes it possible to operate the conveyor belt at a relatively high maximum speed of up to 6 m / sec.
  • the conveyor on two rails, which are each arranged on one side of the conveyor belt parallel to the conveyor belt. It is conceivable that the rails are made of stainless steel. These rails stabilize the bundle packs advantageously during conveyance through the conveyor belt.
  • the conveyor has at least one guide rail which guides the bundles of packages to be conveyed in the conveying direction of the conveyor belt. It is also conceivable that a plurality, preferably two guide rails are provided, each extending on one side of the conveyor belt. Furthermore, it is also conceivable to provide a plurality of guide rails on one or both sides of the conveyor belt.
  • the at least one guide rail is expediently made adjustable, so that the lateral distance to the conveyor belt is adjustable. Thus, it can be ensured that the bundle packs are conveyed reliably and uniformly, and the coding device can also be set to bundle packs with different dimensions.
  • the coding device has a feed unit, wherein a bundle pack for conveyance through the conveyor belt can be raised into the conveying device by a punch of the feed unit extending substantially vertically to the conveyor belt.
  • the bundle packs are thus introduced substantially parallel to the conveying direction of the conveyor belt in the feed unit, for example by another conveyor belt. There, the bundle packs are then laterally displaced by the punch so that they are pushed onto the conveyor belt or in the conveyor.
  • This has the advantage that the packaged packs are abandoned in largely identical positions on the conveyor belt or in the conveyor. Thus, tolerances of up to ⁇ 0.1 mm can be maintained.
  • the feed unit expediently has an eccentric disc.
  • the punch is preferably linearly guided and is moved back and forth by the rotation of the eccentric disc.
  • the eccentric disc is driven by a servo drive. It is conceivable that the stamp is mounted on a connecting rod on the eccentric disc. Thus, a uniform movement of the punch can be achieved.
  • the feed unit gives up the bundle packs synchronously with the cyclical movement of the conveyor belt.
  • a bundle pack is coded by the coding unit
  • a further bundle pack to be coded is fed onto the conveyor belt or into the conveyor by the feed unit.
  • the conveying device has at least one slide rail oriented substantially parallel to the conveyor belt in the region of the feed unit.
  • the slide rail preferably has a length which corresponds at least to the length of a bundle pack. It is also advantageous if the slide rail is made of plastic or another suitable material with a low coefficient of friction. Thus, it can be ensured that the feed unit gives the bundle pack to be coded onto the conveyor belt, without the bundle pack being tilted or damaged.
  • the height of the at least one slide rail is selected so that a bundle pack abandoned by the feed unit rests only on the at least one slide rail.
  • the at least one slide rail has a height between 1 mm and 3 mm, preferably between 1.5 mm and 2.5 mm and particularly preferably of 2 mm. It can thus be ensured that a conveyance through the conveyor belt is ensured by the gap between the bundle pack resting on the at least one slide rail and the conveyor belt. In particular, it can be ensured that the recordings of the conveyor belt can be brought into contact with the bundle pack to be conveyed.
  • the coding device has at least two sensors for detecting the position of a bundle pack in the feed unit and in the conveying device.
  • it can be determined whether there has been a problem in the task of the bundle pack to be coded. For example, the process may be stopped so that it does not become clogged or damaged.
  • the coding device has a control unit which is designed to check the coding of the bundle pack. If the control unit determines that the coding is faulty, the corresponding bundle can be removed directly or in a subsequent process step. The contents of the bundle can then be fed back to the process. On the one hand, the waste can be minimized. On the other hand, the overall product quality is increased.
  • control unit has at least one optical sensor and / or one camera unit. This ensures fast and efficient control of the coded bundle packs.
  • the bundle pack is pushed by the feed unit onto the conveyor belt or positioned so that the bundle pack can be transported through the conveyor belt. It is also advantageous if the coding is checked by the control unit.
  • the coding device is in particular to be operated so that the conveyor belt is stopped in a cycle between 200 msec and 400 msec, preferably between 250 msec and 350 msec, and particularly preferably for 300 msec.
  • the conveyor belt is moved at a maximum speed between 3 m / sec and 6 m / sec, preferably between 4 m / sec and 5 m / sec and particularly preferably at 4.5 m / sec.
  • the conveyor belt is accelerated and / or decelerated between 30 m / sec 2 and 60 m / sec 2 , preferably between 40 m / sec 2 and 50 m / sec 2 and particularly preferably at 45 m / sec 2 .
  • the invention also relates to a labeling system with a coding device according to the invention.
  • FIGS. 2 to 9 1 shows a first exemplary embodiment of a (partially cut-out) coding device 1 for bundle packs 2, for example cigarette packs, which is integrated in a labeling system 20.
  • the labeling system 20 is generally known and will not be described further here.
  • the coding device 1 has a conveying device 3, an encoding unit 4 and a feed unit 12.
  • the conveying direction of the bundle packs 2 by the labeling system 20 with a coding device 1 according to the invention is indicated in the figures by the gray background block arrows.
  • the bundle packs 2 are transported lengthwise. It is also conceivable, however, for the bundle packs 2 to be conveyed widthwise or rotated accordingly during the conveyance.
  • the coding device 1 is arranged on a frame which also carries the electronic components, such as a control unit or the power supply unit.
  • the bundle packs 2 are conveyed by a conveyor belt to the coding device 1 and fed by further conveying devices for further processing after it has been coded.
  • the bundle packs 2 are first fed by a conveyor belt of the feed unit 12.
  • the bundle packs 2 are positioned so that they are aligned substantially parallel to a conveyor belt 5 of the conveyor 3.
  • the feed unit has a punch 13, which gives the bundle packs 2 on the conveyor belt 5 and in the conveyor 3.
  • the punch 13 is movable vertically to the conveyor belt 5 by being driven by an eccentric disk 14.
  • the punch 13 is connected via a connecting rod 15 with the eccentric disc 14.
  • the punch 13 is guided on two linear guides 16, so that the rotating movement of the eccentric disc 14 is translated into a linear-reciprocal movement of the punch 13.
  • the eccentric 14 is driven by a (not shown) servo drive.
  • the punch 13 displaces the bundle pack 2 laterally so that it is fed to the conveyor 3.
  • the conveyor 3 has two slide rails 17 made of plastic with a low coefficient of friction, which are each arranged on one side of the conveyor belt 5.
  • the slide rails 17 have a length, which is slightly larger than the length of a bundle pack 2.
  • the bundle pack 2 lies completely on the slide rails 17.
  • the slide rails have a height of about 2 mm, so that the abandoned from the feed unit 12 bundle pack 2 does not come into contact with the conveyor belt 5. Rather, the conveying plane of the conveyor belt 5 is at a slightly lower horizontal level.
  • there are at least two sensors (not shown) which monitor the position of the bundle pack 2 in the feed unit 12 and in the conveying device 3. The achieved positioning accuracy or tolerance is ⁇ 0.1 mm.
  • the conveyor belt 5 For conveying the bundle packs 2, the conveyor belt 5 has corresponding receptacles 9, which are formed in this embodiment as extending from the conveyor belt 5 noses or support and at the rear end of the respective bundle pack 2 seen in the conveying direction.
  • the surface of the conveyor belt 5 is further provided with an anti-slip coating.
  • the conveyor 3 on two rails 10 which extend over the entire length of the conveyor belt 5 laterally from this.
  • the rails 10 are arranged so that the facing in the direction of the bundle pack 2 surfaces are slightly below the conveying plane of the conveyor belt 5. In this embodiment, the difference is 1 mm.
  • the conveyor 3 has guide rails 11.
  • the guide rails 11 are adjustable in their distance from the conveyor belt 5, so that the coding device 1 is adjustable to different widths packs 2.
  • the conveyor belt 5 is driven in cycles, wherein the timing is synchronized with the movement of the punch 13. During a standstill of the conveyor belt 5 to be encoded bundle pack 2 is abandoned by the feed unit 12 and encoded by the encoding unit 4, as will be described in more detail below.
  • the conveyor belt 5 can be driven at a maximum speed of up to 6.0 m / sec, wherein a speed of 4.5 m / sec has proven to be particularly advantageous.
  • the maximum acceleration or deceleration of the conveyor belt 5 can be up to 60 m / sec 2 , wherein a value of 45 m / sec 2 has been found to be particularly suitable.
  • a receptacle 9 of the conveyor belt 5 is brought into contact with the bundle pack 2 by the conveyor belt 5 starts.
  • the bundle pack 2 is taken in the conveying direction and conveyed to the coding unit 4.
  • the conveying device 3 has a positioning means 7 in the area of the coding unit 4.
  • the positioning means 7 comprises in this embodiment a plurality of rollers 8 (here are in the Fig. 2 to 9 exemplified two rollers 8 shown), which are arranged above the conveyor belt 5.
  • the rollers 8 are made of a flexible or compliant material and come into contact with the surface of the bundle pack 2, in particular in the Fig. 4 to 7 easy to recognize.
  • the rollers 8 exert a force on the bundle pack 2, so that the bundle pack 2 between the conveyor belt 5 and the rollers 8 is easily clamped.
  • a positioning accuracy of ⁇ 0.5 mm in the area of the coding unit 4 can be achieved.
  • the coding unit 4 has two lasers 6 or laser units.
  • the distance from a respective laser 6 to the bundle pack 2 to be coded is approximately 300 mm to 400 mm, preferably the distance is 190 mm to 370 mm. In this embodiment, the distance is 348 mm, which has been found to be particularly suitable.

  • the bundle packs 2 are then coded by the laser 6 during the stoppage of the conveyor belt 5 by the laser applying a laser inscription directly to the bundle pack 2 or to an outer wrapping of the bundle pack 2.
  • a laser 6 has been found to be useful, which emits a laser beam having a wavelength between 1000 microns and 1100 microns, in particular with a wavelength of 1060 microns to 1070 microns.
