Definitions

  • the invention relates to a processing device for packaging machines, in particular for labeling and / or printing packaging, with at least one upper processing unit for processing packaging tops and at least one lower processing unit for processing packaging undersides.
  • the invention also relates to a packaging machine, in particular for food products, with at least one processing device according to the invention.
  • Packaging machines such as are used in particular for packaging food products, typically comprise a multiplicity of work stations which are arranged one after the other along a work or transport direction. In such food processing lines with packaging machines, the products are often not only packaged, but the packs are actually produced in the first place.
  • the packs are made from at least two material webs, in particular film webs, namely a so-called lower film and a so-called upper film.
  • the lower film is reshaped by means of a deep-drawing process, in order, for example, to produce a shell-shaped lower part of a respective pack.
  • the workflow in such a deep-drawing packaging machine is in particular clocked.
  • a predetermined length of film is withdrawn and transported along the packaging machine, with one work cycle corresponding to at least one pack or, if the packaging machine is designed with multiple lanes, at least one row of packs lying transversely to the transport direction.
  • the packs are provided with labels and / or printed, for example.
  • this is often done on the packaging machines themselves, which are provided with appropriate processing devices for this purpose. These are usually arranged at an end region of the packaging machine in order to label or print the finished packs, which are still connected as a film web, for example.
  • processing devices such as labelers and printers for packs have been known for a long time.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to create a possibility for processing packs on packaging machines, which has the smallest possible space requirement and allows the simplest possible operation.
  • a processing device with the features of claim 1.
  • a common adjustment axis is provided for the processing units, along which the processing units can be adjusted manually or by means of a drive in an adjustment direction that runs parallel to a transport direction of the packaging machine.
  • the object is also achieved by a packaging machine with at least one processing device according to the invention.
  • the invention leaves the path taken so far in the prior art, in the case of several processing units, to consider them as separate, independent machines and to design and operate them accordingly, each of which requires a complete separate infrastructure in order to be attached to the packaging machine and in particular in the direction of transport Packaging machine to be adjusted.
  • the common adjustment axis is not to be understood as an imaginary or virtual axis in the mathematical sense, but rather an objective component or structural unit that can be adjusted manually or by means of a drive of the processing units parallel to the transport direction of the packaging machine.
  • the adjustment axis can be a component or unit, however specifically configured, extending over a suitable adjustment length parallel to the transport direction of the packaging machine, for example a guide rod, whereby this component or unit can consequently also fulfill a guiding function.
  • this does not exclude additional guides for the machining units.
  • the adjustment axis can form or comprise a common drive element for the processing units or be formed by such a drive element.
  • This drive element can be, for example, a spindle, a toothed belt or a toothed rack.
  • the concept of the invention makes it possible to shift the operation of all processing units completely to just one of the sides of the packaging machine.
  • an additional guide for the processing units can be provided, which, however, does not need to be addressed by the operating personnel, at least while the packaging machine is in operation.
  • Another advantage of a common adjustment axis for several processing units is that certain safety-related measures - insofar as they are fundamentally necessary - only need to be taken on one side of the packaging machine.
  • the processing units can be adjusted in opposite directions with respect to the transport direction of the packaging machine, a risk of injury to the operating personnel, which is potentially due to this adjustability, must be carried out by means of suitable safety regulations Measures such as the provision of a cover can be avoided.
  • the processing units can be adjusted via the central control of the packaging machine or the entire processing line into which the packaging machine is possibly integrated.
  • inventive concept enables a variety of work variants, which will be discussed in more detail elsewhere, with at least certain variants not yet being able to be implemented, or at most with the acceptance of a considerable additional working length of the packaging machine.
  • a single common adjustment axis can be provided for the machining units.
  • At least one further common adjustment axis can be provided, in which case all the common adjustment axes of the processing units are arranged on the same side of the packaging machine.
  • An adjustment axis which can also be referred to as the main adjustment axis, can primarily be provided for joint adjustment of the machining units.
  • a machining unit that is decoupled from the main adjustment axis can be coupled to a further common adjustment axis and, for example, be brought into a non-working position along this further common adjustment axis, independently of the other machining unit or units.
  • a common adjustment axis within the meaning of the invention can also be provided in such a way that one processing unit is not directly connected to the common one Adjusting axis interacts, but only indirectly via the respective other processing unit, which interacts directly with the common adjustment axis.
  • the two machining units are consequently not adjustable independently of one another by means of the common adjustment axis.
  • this does not preclude the processing units from being movable relative to one another in order, for example, to be able to change an offset in the transport direction of the packaging machine between the two processing units.
  • Preferred embodiments can also be found in the following description, the dependent claims and the drawing.
  • a common travel drive is provided for the two machining units, with which the machining units can be moved along the adjustment axis.
  • the displacement drive can comprise an elongated drive element for the machining units that extends in the actuating direction.
  • the drive element can be, for example, a spindle, a toothed belt or a toothed rack.
  • the machining units can be coupled to the adjustment axis and decoupled from the adjustment axis independently of one another. This enables a highly flexible operation of the packaging machine with regard to the function of the processing units. If the processing units are all coupled to the adjustment axis, the processing units can be adjusted together.
  • the processing units can, for example, jointly change their position along the packaging machine, and any offset that may be present between the two processing units in the transport direction can remain constant. However, an offset between the processing units does not have to be present and - if it is present - not constant be.
  • a joint adjustment of processing units coupled to the adjustment axis can also be accompanied by an increasing or decreasing distance between the processing units in the transport direction of the packaging machine.
  • each processing unit comprises a coupling device which can be actuated manually or controlled by means of a control device and is designed to couple and decouple the processing unit and the adjustment axis from one another.
  • the control device can be assigned to the processing device and, in particular, integrated into the processing device and connected in a suitable manner to a central control device of the packaging machine.
  • the control device used to control the coupling devices of the processing unit can be integrated into a central control device of the packaging machine or a higher-level processing line.
  • a guide running parallel to the adjustment direction is provided for the machining devices.
  • the guide can comprise a guide element or at least two guide elements extending at a distance from one another transversely to the setting direction.
  • the guide element (s) can be, for example, simple, passive guide rods. If two spaced guide organs are provided, then these can be on opposite sides Be arranged sides of the packaging machine. This results in particularly stable and precise guidance and alignment of the processing units with respect to the respective packaging machine. While the or each common adjustment axis for the processing units is only arranged on one side of the machine, guide devices for the processing units can thus be provided on both sides of the packaging machine.
  • At least one transverse axis running transversely to the transport direction is provided for at least one additional unit.
  • the transverse axis can be moved manually or by means of a drive along the adjustment axis in the adjustment direction.
  • the additional unit for which the additional transverse axis is provided can be, for example, a printing device for printing, for example, the top or bottom sides of the pack.
  • the processing units are each a labeling unit, the upper labeling unit being used to label the tops of the pack and the lower labeling unit to be used to label the underside of the pack.
  • the processing units can each be designed as printing units for printing the pack sides.
  • "mixed" applications are also possible in which different processing units are used.
  • the top of the pack can be labeled using an upper labeling unit and the bottom of the pack can be printed on using a lower printing unit.
  • a packaging machine in particular a machine for packaging food products, which comprises at least one processing device according to the invention as disclosed herein, according to one

This does not exclude that an additional, but not sufficient, support takes place via another device that is not formed by the packaging machine or does not belong to the packaging machine or via a set-up area, in particular the floor.
  • the processing device is preferably supported exclusively on the packaging machine and in particular on a rack or frame of the packaging machine.
  • the adjustment axis of the packaging machine is preferably arranged on one side of a machine frame or a machine frame of the packaging machine.
  • the adjustment axis is preferably supported on the machine frame or the machine frame. In particular, the adjustment axis is supported exclusively in this way.
  • the processing units of the processing device can, viewed in the transport direction, be arranged in the same working section of the packaging machine that is assigned to a pack or to a row of packs lying transversely to the transport direction.
  • the same pack is consequently processed by the processing units, ie the top processing unit processes the top side of the pack and the bottom processing unit processes the bottom side of the package.
  • the processing units each process the same row of packs.
  • An offset between the processing units in the transport direction of the packaging machine within the working section can be provided. This offset can result from the respectively desired processing positions, which can be different for the pack top and the pack bottom of a respective pack.
  • a label for the top of the pack may be desirable to apply to a front region of the pack in the direction of transport, whereas a label or printing is to be applied to the underside of the pack, viewed in the direction of transport, in the rear area of the pack.

  • an essential advantage of the invention is that the operation of the processing unit can be completely shifted to only one side of the packaging machine. Furthermore, the effort for any necessary safety measures can be reduced, in particular safety measures due to the mobility of the processing units and the associated potential risk of crushing. It is also advantageous that the working length required by the packaging machine for the processing unit according to the invention is comparatively small. In particular, when several pairs of machining units are provided, a saving in the required machine length of 50% and more can be achieved compared to an increase in performance achieved in a conventional manner, without having to accept any losses in functionality or performance.
