Definitions

  • the invention relates to a vacuum-supported rotary unit, in particular a vacuum transfer unit or vacuum cylinder unit, for a labeling unit.
  • Vacuum-supported rotary units for labeling units are known to include a rotor assembly that can rotate around itself for transporting labels and a stationary, i.e. non-rotating assembly, for example with a frame and with a storage, a drive and a vacuum supply for the rotor assembly.
  • the rotor assembly is a vacuum cylinder with suction elements distributed circumferentially thereon for vacuum-assisted transfer of labels
  • the stationary assembly includes, for example, a base plate with a substantially annular vacuum distributor for vacuum supply to the individual suction elements.
  • the vacuum distributor is limited to the vacuum cylinder by a sealing plate with supply openings for vacuum supply to the vacuum cylinder.
  • a substantially annular sealing surface with connection openings and vacuum channels to the individual suction elements is formed on the vacuum cylinder.
  • US 2002/005259 A1 and EP 2 610 191 A1 each disclose a rotary unit for a labeling unit according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the disadvantage here is that the vacuum distributor is only accessible for maintenance work on the sealing surface by removing the vacuum cylinder upwards. This requires its comparatively complex and, from an ergonomic point of view, unfavorable disassembly. In addition, vacuum lines for the vacuum distributor that are connected to the underside of the base plate and run through it must be removed before it can be removed upwards. This is also disadvantageous from an ergonomic point of view.
  • sealing plate of the vacuum distributor is fully formed, material wear also occurs in those machine angle areas of the vacuum distributor in which the suction elements do not require a vacuum at all.
  • the sealing surfaces sliding on one another also cause a fundamentally undesirable heat input into the vacuum cylinder.
  • the task is solved with a rotary unit, in particular a vacuum cylinder unit, according to claim 1.
  • the rotary unit/vacuum cylinder unit is suitable for a labeling unit for labeling containers and therefore comprises a rotor assembly that can rotate around itself, in particular a vacuum cylinder; a stationary (non-rotating) base plate for supporting the rotor assembly; and a vacuum distributor attached to the base plate with a vacuum channel running along a circular path, which is delimited towards the rotor assembly by a sealing plate with supply openings formed therein for supplying vacuum to the rotor assembly.
  • the vacuum distributor comprises a support plate for receiving the vacuum channel, the support plate and the vacuum channel being designed as partially circumferential circular ring segments and the support plate being releasably attached to the base plate from below and the vacuum channel protruding upwards through a recess formed in the base plate.
  • the vacuum distributor can therefore be removed as a whole, i.e. with the support plate and the vacuum channel sitting on it, from the base plate downwards.
  • the rotor assembly/vacuum cylinder located above therefore does not need to be removed for maintenance of the vacuum distributor.
  • the only partial extent of the vacuum channel reduces both the material wear of the sealing surfaces sliding on one another as a whole and the resulting heat input into the rotor assembly/vacuum cylinder compared to a full extent.
  • the machine angle area of the base plate which is not penetrated by the built-in vacuum distributor, can be used for fastening and torque support for supporting and driving the rotor assembly/vacuum cylinder. This enables a structurally simple and compact rotary unit/vacuum cylinder unit.
  • the vacuum distributor with carrier and vacuum channel partially extend over a machine angle of at most 300° and in particular at most 270°.
  • the rotary unit/vacuum cylinder is then preferably part of a labeling unit/labeling machine for labeling containers.
  • the vacuum cylinder unit 1 comprises a vacuum cylinder 2 which can rotate around itself in a manner known in principle and a stationary, i.e. non-rotating base plate 3, which carries the vacuum cylinder 2.
  • the base plate 3 is penetrated by a vacuum distributor 4, which is detachably attached to the base plate 3 from below and can be dismantled downwards.
  • the vacuum cylinder unit 1, the vacuum cylinder 2 and the stationary base plate 3 represent vacuum-supported rotary units, rotor assemblies and stationary assemblies / lower parts of labeling units / labeling machines in general, provided that these can be equipped with the disclosed vacuum distributor 4.
  • the vacuum distributor 4 comprises a support plate 5 and a vacuum channel 6 located on its top.
  • the vacuum channel 6 comprises, for example, a profile with a U-shaped cross section and is delimited on its upper side by a sealing plate 7, in which supply openings 8 for vacuum supply to the vacuum cylinder 2 are formed.
  • the vacuum distributor 4 is designed as a partially circumferential circular ring segment 4a, which preferably includes a machine angle 4b of at most 300° and in particular at most 270°.
  • the vacuum channel 6 and the sealing plate 7 are preferably connected to one another in a materially bonded manner and in particular are glued to one another.
  • the vacuum channel 6 and/or the sealing plate 7 can, for example, consist of a generatively layered material that can be produced using so-called 3D printing.
  • the vacuum channel 6 preferably comprises separate, partially circumferential segments 6a, 6b, 6c for separate vacuum supply to the suction elements 9 of the vacuum cylinder 2 in individual machine angle areas of the vacuum cylinder unit 1.
  • the vacuum channel extends essentially along a circular path 6d.
  • the segments 6a, 6b, 6c are arranged one behind the other.
  • the vacuum distributor 4 comprises separate vacuum connections 10, for example in the form of nozzles/flanges 10a and releasably connected elbows 10b, which are each vacuum-tight with the vacuum channel 6 or the respective partially circumferential segment 6a, 6b, 6c are connected.
  • the Figures 2 and 4 also show that the support plate 5 is essentially designed as a flat plate.
  • the support plate 5 could also have a U-shaped cross section for receiving the vacuum channel 6 with lateral, essentially axially extending legs and at least one radially extending fastening flange (not shown).
  • the support plate 5 is attached to the base plate 3 with releasable fastening elements 13, which are preferably designed as machine screws.
  • releasable fastening elements 13 are preferably designed as machine screws.
  • other positive fastening elements would also be conceivable, such as clamps, bayonet locks, toggle locks or the like.
  • the fastening elements 13 generally serve to releasably fasten the vacuum distributor 4 to the stationary base plate 3 from below by means of the support plate 5, see the Figures 1 and 4 .
  • the support plate 5 includes a U-profile for receiving the vacuum channel 6 and a side fastening flange, a push-off thread can be formed in this. These are then used to dismantle the vacuum distributor 4 from the base plate 3 downwards by pressing off the fastening flange using threaded bolts or the like screwed into the pressing thread.
  • the vacuum distributor 4 further comprises biasing devices 17 for sealing and resiliently biased pressing of the sealing plate 7 on a corresponding sealing surface 18 (see Figure 4 ) of the vacuum cylinder 2.
  • the biasing devices 17 can include, for example, compression springs 19, gas springs or similar spring elements.
  • limiting screws 20 are provided, with which the state of wear of the sealing plate 7 can be assessed based on the screw-in depth of the limiting screws 20.
  • the vacuum channel 6 is fastened to the support plate 5 by means of the pretensioning devices 17 and the limiting screws 20.
  • the vacuum distributor 4 is preferably part of a vacuum cylinder unit 1, the functioning of which is otherwise known in principle and therefore not explained in detail. Accordingly, in the Figures 1 and 4 only the stationary (non-rotating) base plate 3 of the vacuum cylinder unit 1 and its vacuum cylinder 2 with the suction elements 9 and the rotating sealing surface 18 are provided with reference numbers.
  • the complete vacuum distributor 4 can be detached from the base plate 3 after loosening the fastening means 13 and removed as a whole from the vacuum cylinder unit 1 downwards.
  • the vacuum channel 6 with the sealing plate 7 and the connectors / flanges 10a of the vacuum connections 10 can be removed from the support plate 5 and inspected in a simple manner and, if the sealing plate 7 is worn, if necessary in the sense of a Wear assembly must be replaced.
  • the limiting screws 20 enable a visual check of the state of wear of the installed vacuum distributor 4 in order to be able to dismantle it at a suitable time. This means that wear-related damage due to late replacement of the wear assembly, i.e. the vacuum channel 6 with its sealing plate 7, as well as uneconomical maintenance due to unnecessarily premature replacement of the wear assembly can be avoided.
  • a partial machine angle area 3a of the base plate 3 is not penetrated by the vacuum distributor 4.
  • the base plate 3 therefore has no opening for receiving the vacuum distributor 4. This promotes and simplifies a stable support structure and torque support for the vacuum cylinder 2 on the base plate 3.
  • a recess 3b for the support plate 5 is preferably formed in the base plate 3. This facilitates correct positioning of the vacuum distributor 4 both radially with respect to the axis of rotation of the vacuum cylinder 2 and with regard to its machine angular position on the vacuum cylinder unit 1.
  • the vacuum distributor 4 is particularly suitable for a vacuum cylinder 2 in a labeling unit for labeling containers (not shown). However, it would also be conceivable to integrate the vacuum distributor 4 into another vacuum-supported rotary unit, for example on a pallet carousel with vacuum pallets for transporting labels (not shown) or the like.
  • the directional information refers to the installed state of the vacuum distributor or the operational state of the rotary unit.
