Abstract

1508126 Packaging BRITISH VISQUEEN Ltd 25 March 1975 [30 April 1974] 18875/74 Addition to 1335304 Heading B8C A method of wrapping an article comprises advancing the article, 3, against a curtain formed by a web 9 of heat-shrinkable plastics film and a web 7 of a tear-tape material drawn from supply means 8, 6 respectively on opposite sides of the path of the article and transversely heat-sealed together at 10 to form the curtain across the path of the article. The article is then further advanced into the curtain, with further withdrawal of the material from the web supply means, until the curtain extends around the article to beyond its trailing end, the tear-tape material 7 being withdrawn non-continuously from its supply means so that a predetermined length not greater than “ of the length of the perimeter of the article in the direction of its advancement is withdrawn. The two webs are then transversely heat sealed together and severed behind the article to leave on one side the article 3a enveloped or partially enveloped in a sleeve formed from the two webs, and on the other side the two webs sealed together to form again a curtain. As described, the article 3 is advanced by a pusher 2 into the curtain and on to a conveyer 4 which, after sealing and severing of the webs by heated jaws 11, 12 and knife 13, carries the package into a shrink tunnel 5. The supply roller 6 for the tear-tape material is braked intermittently so that the tear-tape extends over <SP>1</SP>/ 9 to <SP>1</SP>/ 11 of the article perimeter. Preferably the brake is released as the jaws 11, 12 open and is applied when a stud 19 on a roller 17 actuates a micro-switch 18. Alternative actuating means, e.g. photo-electric, pneumatic, or magnetic, or marks on the tear-tape web, or a controlled dancer roll may be used to control the length of material fed. The curtain may be narrower or wider than the article fed and its end edges may be heatsealed. The tear-tape web may be wider than the other. Two webs of the heat-shrinkable material may be supplied to form a double layer. The webs may be of similar materials, e.g. polyethylene, polypropylene, or copolymers thereof.
