Description
1 24031 98 Apparatus and process for packaging piece goods This invention
relates to an apparatus and a process for packaging piece goods according to the preamble of claim 1 and claim 9 respectively.
BP-A-0'939'034 and DE-A-1'136'928 disclose an apparatus for packaging piece-goods into tube-type bags, the bags being formed by the apparatus. Such apparatus are also called form-fill-and-seal machines. A continuous length of a pack aging material, normally a sheet material or foil, is folded lengthwise over the piece-goods article. The lateral edges of the packaging material are sealed together and transverse sealing and cutting means form transverse seal a- seams and separate the individual bags from each other.
In the apparatus known in the state of the art, the bags are labeled when they have already left the actual packag- ing station. If the actual weight of the articles has to be declared, the filled bag is forwarded to a checkweigher, the actual weight of the bag is determined, this data is printed on a label and the label is slicked to the bag. US- A-5'425'823 for example discloses a checkweigher and a marking station. The positive aspect of this procedure is, that everything can be done automatically. However, this weighting and marking station needs space and the conveyor path of the whole apparatus is increased. Furthermore, the labels can only be put on top of the bags. If labels should be placed on other sides of the bag, the bags have to be rotated with separate means. These means can also increase the length of the conveyor path.
It is another disadvantage of the existing packaging ma- chines, that they handle all piece goods in the same way.
This means, all bags have the same size in the end. How- ever, especially when the piece goods articles are food articles, they can vary not only in weight, but also in size or shape.
It is therefore an object of the invention to provide an apparatus and a process for packaging piece goods which can handle individual piece-goods articles or groups of piece- goods articles in a more individual way.
This object is achieved with an apparatus and a process with the features according to claim 1 and 9 respectively.
The apparatus and process according to the invention com- prise a data determining station which is located upstream of a packaging station, the data determining station com- prising means for determining at least one feature, e.g. weight, size or shape, of an individual unpacked article or an individual group of unpacked articles, wherein this fea ture is used when packing the individual article or the in dividual group of articles.
It is a further object of the invention to provide an appa- ratus and a process for packaging piece goods which allow to mark bags on different sides in an easy way.
This object is achieved with an apparatus and a process with the features of claim 2 and 10 respectively.
The inventive apparatus and process comprise a marking sta Lion for labeling the packaging material, this marking sta- tion being arranged downstream of the data determining sta- tion and upstream of the packaging station or it is located within the packaging station. This arrangement allows to apply to mark the packaging material before the actual bag is formed. The marks or labels can therefore be applied on any sides and in any position.
This arrangement is especially advantageous when used in combination with a checkweigher, the checkweigher being part of the data determining station positioned upstreams.
The actual weight of the articles can be determined, this information can be transferred to the marking station, be printed on a label and put on the part of the packaging ma- terial which will be wrapped around this special article, when this one arrives at the packaging station. The total conveyor length can therefore be minimized.
A further advantage is, that articles which are not within a predetermined feature limit, here the weight limit, can be selected out before they even arrive at the packaging station. This helps to safe packaging material.
It is also possible to put the labels on the unfolded or only partly folded packaging material without having a data determining station located upstream. In this case, the la- bels do not bear individual data. However, they still can be arranged on all sides of the bags.
Further advantageous embodiments may be gathered from the dependent claims.
In the Drawings; The subject matter of the invention is explained herein be low with reference to preferred exemplary embodiments which are illustrated in the attached drawing, in which Figure 1 shows a side view of an apparatus according to the invention;.
Figure 2a shows a detail of an unfolded packaging mate rial with labels attached thereon; Figure 2b a bag folded from the packaging material ac cording to figure 2a and Figures 3 to 6 perspective or plan views of labeled bags in different embodiments, the bags having been produced with the inventive apparatus.
The apparatus according to the invention as shown in figure 1 comprises a packaging station S for packaging piece-goods articles A in bags B. a feed conveyor 3 positioned upstream of the packaging station 5 for feeding individual piece- goods articles A or groups of such articles to the packag- ing station 5 and a removal conveyor 7 positioned down stream of the packaging station 5 for conveying the filled bags B to further working stations, e g. a delivery sta- tion.
The apparatus is preferably a horizontal tubular-bag pack aging machine as described in the introductory part of this text The packaging station 5 itself is known in the state of the art and is therefore not described in detail. It mainly consists of at least one, here two packaging material sup- ply rolls 50, at least one, usually several deflection and drive wheels 51, folding means 52, longitudinal sealing means 53 and transverse sealing and cutting means 54.
go The apparatus further comprises a controller 8 controlling the packaging station 5 and at least the feed conveyor 3, preferably also the removal conveyor 7. The controller 8 is --- therefore connected with the different stations, wherein the connection can also be wireless. The connections are shown in figure 1 using lines ending in arrows.
The apparatus further comprises a marking station 4, 6 which is arranged upstream of the packaging station 5 or in the packaging station 5 itself. In this embodiment, the marking station consists of a label applicator 4 which is arranged upstream of the packaging station 5 at the down- stream end of the feed conveyor 3 and a printer 6 which is arranged within the packaging station 5, but upstream of the folding means 52 of the packaging station 5.
The inventive apparatus further comprises a data determin- ing station 2 being positioned upstream of the packaging station 5 and upstream of the marking station 4, 6 as well.
Also shown in figure 1 is a supply conveyor 1 which conveys the articles to be packed to the data determining station 2. The data determining station 2 comprises at least one means for determining at least one feature of an individual piece-goods article A or an individual group of such arti- cles. This means can be a checkweigher, a means for measur- ing the length or a means for determining the shape of the article A. The data is used when this individual article is packed in the packaging station 5.
The conveyors 1, 3, 7 are common conveyors, preferably end- less belts with an upper and a lower reach driven by roll- ers.
Depending on the kind of data determined, i.e. on the kind of means determining the feature of the article A, the in- ventive apparatus is used in a different way. In the fol --i lowing, the inventive process will be described for the case that the data determining station 2 comprises a check weigher: Articles A arriving at the data determining station 2 are individually weighted. This information is proceeded to the controller 8, which is shown in figure 1 with a dashed line. In the meanwhile, this article A is conveyed to the feed conveyor 3 and it is transported to the packaging sta- tion 5. The conveying direction is shown in figure 1 by arrows. In the meanwhile, a further part of the packaging ma serial, which is usually a sheet material or a foil F. is unrolled from the roller 50, and guided and transported by the deflection and drive wheels 51 to the folding means 52.
On the way to the folding means 52, the unfolded foil F is provided with at least one label L. This label is pro- vided by the marking station 4. The marking station 4 can for example comprise an endless belt with an upper reach 40 and a lower reach 41, wherein the foil F is guided over the deflection part between the upper and lower reach and takes the label L with it. Other ways of sticking the label L onto the foil F are possible.
The foil F is then guided through the printer 6. The printer 6 prints the data, i.e. at least the determined weight of the article A on the label L. The article A, which was in the meanwhile transported through the packaging station 5 to the folding means 52, is now joining thin special part of packaging material bearing the label L with the data related to this special article A. The article A is packed in this special part of packaging material. After passing the folding means 52, the wrapped article A passes the longitudinal sealing means 53, which provides the foil F with a longitudinal sealing seam, and then the transverse sealing and cutting means 54, where the transverse sealing seam is formed and the continuous length of the folded foil is divided into individual bags B. The relation between the marked foil F and the correspond- ing article A or group of articles respectively is main tained by the controller 8. Preferably, the data determined are entered into a shift register. However, it is not nec- essary to operate the conveyors in a single step modus.
They can also be operated in a continuous way. If the arti cles are not conveyed in an evenly spaced manner to the data determining station, it is advantageous to use a feed conveyor 3 comprising a feeding track which is adjustable in its length. This can for example be achieved with a con veyor system as disclosed in EP-A-0'433'231. This conveyor system comprises two endless belts which are arranged in conveying direction one after the other, wherein the end roller of the first belt and the front roller of the second belt are arranged on a first carriage. Second rollers of the two belts are arranged on a second carriage, wherein both carriages are moveable parallel to the conveying di rection, thereby changing the length of the conveying path.
The printer 6 also does not have to print the data on la bets. It is also possible to print the data directly on the foil F. In this case, it is not necessary to have a label applicator 4. It is also possible to print the data onto the label L before applying them to the foil F. However, the arrangement according to figure 1 has the advantage, that the conveying length is minimized.
Furthermore, the label L or the data can also be applied on the foil F. when it is already partly folded but before the article is pushed onto the foil F. Furthermore, it is also possible, that the data determining station 2 directly forwards the data to the marking station 4, 6 and that the controller 8 only tracks the position of the individual article, so that its arrival in the packag ing station 5 is known.
Usually, the articles A are conveyed through the data de- termining station 2 in a continuous way. However, the con veyor can also stop when the data are collected.
Preferably all articles pass the data determining station 2. Preferably, all article or all groups of articles are checked and their individual data transmitted for use in the packaging station 5.
If other data than the weight are collected, they can be used for controlling the packaging station 5 as well. For example, if the length of the article is determined, this information can be used for defining the length of packag - ing material needed. This helps to minimize the use of packaging material. The length can for example be deter mined by using photoelectric barriers. If the shape is de termined, for example with a visual system, this infonma- tion can also be used for defining the length of packaging material needed. However, it can also be used for guiding the article to a packaging station 5 specially adapted for this shape. In this case, there exist more than one packag ing stations. The information related to the shape can also be used when sealing the foil, using individual sealing means optimized for the shape of the individual article.
Figure 2a shows a part of a foil F. where two labels have been applied to. As can be seen, these labels can be ap- plied on any place on the foil F. The folded bag, as shown in figure 2b, comprises labels i, which are positioned on opposite sides of the bag and are even extending around the edges.
The bags according to figures 3 to 6 show other ways of ap plying labels: or data on the foil. These bags have informa tion printed on opposite sides or edges. Other arrangements are possible too.
The apparatus and process therefore allows to apply data or labels on any places of the bags and it furthermore can handle individual articles in a more individual way.
