Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to a denesting apparatus for denesting one or more stacks of sheets.
  • Cardboard based packaging is generally formed of foldable blank or sheets, received generally from one or more stacks and therefore, during the packaging manufacturing process, it is required to sequentially and individually de-stack or unstuck these blanks or sheets from the stacks thereof which are then fed on to a packing line for formation of various kind of packaging.
  • the step of de-stacking of these blanks or sheets has been performed by utilizing various kind of pickers such as for example, manipulators, which may also take the form of robots and/or robotic arms, adapted to pick up a top sheet from the stack intermittently.
  • pickers such as for example, manipulators, which may also take the form of robots and/or robotic arms, adapted to pick up a top sheet from the stack intermittently.
  • pickers are often not cost-efficient and have a high turn-around time and therefore do not reconcile well at instances where a continuous in-feed of these sheets at a high speed is required.
  • WO2008015347 discloses the use of a retractable blower member disposed generally perpendicularly to a stack of sheets so as to blow a jet of air onto the flat items thereby removing the top sheet from the stack thereof.
  • US20110229297 discloses a denesting apparatus having a product carrier plate including a pair of air nozzle assemblies operable to separate a tray from the stack of trays and force the tray against the product carrier plate such that movement of the product carrier plate can selectively discharge the separated tray.
  • EP1541508 discloses a device for the de-stacking of flat objects laid on a stack.
  • the device has a suction device located above the stack support, and a pushing away device with pushing components.
  • the suction device and pushing away device are located at a fixed distance above the stack support, and the pushing components on their end face facing the stack support during the pushing away of an object from the suction head of the suction device have a stop for the next object lifted from the stack by the suction head.
  • US 3,401,831 discloses a denester which, in addition to the suction grippers, includes nozzles which blow pressurized air between the outermost tray and the tray immediately succeeding it, in order to facilitate their separation.
  • Such suction mechanism utilizes suction heads/nozzles which further requires vacuum hoists/supply to create negative air pressure for suction. Therefore, these arrangements are often overly complex in design, and were also undesirably slow in their operation.
  • these mechanisms generally include a drive mechanism with a vacuum cup which is alternatively brought close, put into contact then moved away from the stack of sheets.
  • the vacuum cup is laid against the top sheet of the stack and then carries away the top sheet to bring it away from the stack before laying it down on another work area, for example, on a packaging line conveyor.
  • de-stacking means were utilized to pick the sheet/tray from bottom as described in US20140056684 which discloses a tray denesting apparatus presenting stacks of trays placed upside down within a storage area to a picker mechanism and separating single trays from the stack of trays.
  • a de-stacking means is used to remove individual trays from the tray stack. After picking up the individual tray, a driven rotary device inverts the tray and places the tray onto a tray conveyor located beneath the denesting apparatus.
  • these de-stacking means based mechanisms utilize drive mechanisms adapted to pick up and denest the sheets in accordance to a predetermined distance setting from a predetermined stack.
  • Such system is, however, not designed for cases where a same packaging is a combination of different kind of sheets, such as e.g. a package blank combined with a partition blank.
