Abstract

1,203,684. Making tubes. WOODMAN CO., Inc. 1 June, 1968 [23 June, 1967], No. 27611/68. Heading F2P. A former 11 for transforming a web into a continuous tube comprises a hollow, generally cylindrical body 15 through which the web passes and is formed into tubular shape, a collar-shaped preforming portion 18 extending downwardly at an acute angle from the upper edge of the body and forming a juncture 19 therewith, and a substantially cylindrical, hollow wear insert 25 secured within the body and provided with a projecting guide edge 28 positioned adjacent the juncture which edge 28 receives the frictional wearing force caused by the web passing over the juncture. The guide edge 28 extends above the juncture around the full periphery of the guide edge but the extent of said guide edge above the junction decreases progressively to the open side of the insert. The wear insert is adjustably secured to the body by a screw and nut, the screw passing through an axially aligned slot 31 in the body so that the insert may be relocated to accommodate wear thereof, preferably after the insert has been removed and suitably profiled and squared off. The former transforms a web W, Fig. 1 (not shown), drawn over rollers R from a storage roll (not shown) into a tube, the web edges being sealed to form a longitudinally seam by a suitable device 12. A transverse seal 13 is formed across the tube and the thus partly-formed package filled with the required product through the tube. A similar seal is formed above the seal 13 to complete the package. The insert is provided with ears 26, 27 to provide for formation of the seam and may be coated with chromium, ceramic material, or polytetrafluoroethylene to reduce wear. In a modified embodiment, Fig. 5 (not shown), a smaller diameter insert is secured to the body with the provision of spacers 35, 36 to enable a smaller diameter tube to be formed using the same body 15. Alternatively, a plurality of nested inserts may be provided, one or more being removed as required to form the tube size necessary.
