  The packaging material manufacturing apparatus manufactures a packaging material that accommodates sheet-like members such as seaweed and rice cakes for packaging rice balls, chimaki, etc. The front-rear direction or the longitudinal direction.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the packaging material manufacturing apparatus according to the present invention has a sheet-like member disposed between a long outer film and an inner film which are opposed to each other and conveyed in the longitudinal direction. In the width direction in the outer film and the inner film, the joining means for joining the front part and the rear part of the sheet-like member, and the joined inner film and outer film in the width direction, respectively. Cutting means for cutting, superposing the long first film piece and the second film piece which are opposed to each other and conveyed in the longitudinal direction, and join one end portions in the width direction of both film pieces Thus, it mainly comprises forming means for forming the inner film, and widening means for opening the open end portions facing the joint portion of the inner film to be joined apart through the guide portion.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the manufacturing apparatus includes a first roll 11 on an upper side, and a long outer film 1 is wound around the first roll 11. The outer film 1 is a transparent film made of a synthetic resin such as OPP (stretched polypropylene), and is formed by printing appropriate characters and patterns. In the present embodiment, the outer film 1 is composed of a film having tear directionality in the longitudinal direction, but a film to which a cut tape (not shown) is attached can also be employed.

  In addition, a second roll 12 and a third roll 13 are installed on the lower side of the apparatus, the first film piece 2 a is wound around the second roll 12, and the second film is wound around the third roll 13. The piece 2b is wound. The 1st film piece 2a and the 2nd film piece 2b comprise the inner film 2, Comprising: Each is comprised by what is called an easy peel film of a light peeling type. For example, the easy peel film is composed of a multilayer film of three or more layers made of polyolefin as a raw material, heat sealability is imparted to the exposed front and back layers, and printability and heat resistance are imparted to the intermediate layer. Can be used.

  The inner film 2 is formed by partially joining the first film piece 2a and the second film piece 2b by the sealing device 14, and is configured so that the two can be separated when the joining portion 3 is pulled. Is done.

  More specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the sealing device 14 includes heat rollers 14a and 14b. And the long 1st film piece 2a and the 2nd film piece 2b are guided and conveyed by the guide rollers 15, 16, and 17 in a state where the two film pieces are opposed to each other, and both the film pieces pass between the heat rollers 14a and 14b. In the process of passing, one end part in the width direction of both film pieces is joined as the joint part 3. For example, the joint 3 is provided with an interval of about 3 mm from the edge in the width direction of both film pieces, and a portion of about 2 to 3 mm is joined in the direction of the other end. Thereby, the 1st film piece 2a and the 2nd film piece 2b are joined partially, and the inner film 2 is shape | molded. This step is a forming means.

  Next, the inner film 2 whose one end portion in the width direction is joined as the joining portion 3 is guided by the guide rollers 18 and 19 and conveyed forward. Then, the inner film 2 is shifted from the folded state to the unfolded state by the support means 20 and the guide portion 21, and the joint portion 3 is disposed at a substantially central portion in the width direction of the inner film 2.

  More specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, the support means 20 includes support bars 20a and 20b. The support rods 20a and 20b support the inner film 2 with the joint portion 3 positioned upward in order to make the inner film 2 conveyed toward the guide portion 21 more easily spread. And the inner film 2 is conveyed in the substantially upright state, sliding between these between the support rods 20a and 20b. This step is a support means. In this embodiment, it is supported by the two support rods 20a and 20b, but is not limited to this as long as the inner film 2 can be substantially upright. Three or more may be sufficient.

  Then, the inner film 2 conveyed in a substantially upright state is changed by the guide portion 21 from the folded state to the unfolded state. That is, the open end portions facing the joint portion 3 of the inner film 2 are separated from each other via the guide portion 21 to be widened, and the inner film 2 is set in a substantially horizontal state with the joint portion 3 as a substantially central portion. This step is a widening means.

  In the present embodiment, the guide portion 21 is formed in a substantially hemispherical shape, and the diameter thereof is set to be substantially equal to the dimension in the width direction of the expanded inner film 2. Thereby, the inner film 2 is conveyed while sliding on the outer peripheral surface of the guide portion 21, so that the open end portions can be separated from each other to be in a substantially horizontal state.

  Moreover, the guide part 21 is installed so that the substantially center part of the guide part 21 may be located under the said line on the line through which the junction part 3 of the inner film 2 conveyed by the substantially upright state passes. Thereby, during conveyance, the inner film 2 can be spread evenly in a state where the joint portion 3 is supported from below.

  Next, the inner film 2 spread in a substantially horizontal state is guided to the pressing portion 22 and conveyed while the bonding portion 3 slides on the pressing portion 22 so that the bonding portion 3 becomes the first film piece 2a. It is made into the state turned back to the side or the 2nd film piece 2b side. At this time, the folded portion is folded, for example, at a location of about 10 mm from the edge of the inner film 2. That is, it is folded in a state having a predetermined interval between the joint portion 3 and the folded portion. A pressing roller or the like can be used for the pressing portion 22. Then, the inner film 2 is guided by the guide rollers 23 and 24 and conveyed to the step of joining with the outer film 1.

  On the other hand, a feeder 25 is installed on the rear side of the apparatus, and the sheet-like member 4 formed in a predetermined shape is laminated. As the sheet-like member 4, for example, seaweed, rice cake, etc. for wrapping rice balls, chimaki, etc., bonito, kelp, etc., formed into a sheet shape with gelatin are selectively adopted as appropriate. That is, it is not limited to sheet-like food. The sheet-like members 4 are intermittently supplied one by one by a supply device 25 and are conveyed by a conveyor 26 installed below the supply device 25.

  After that, the sheet-like member 4 is placed at a predetermined interval on the inner surface of the inner film 2 that is conveyed in a state where the joint portion 3 is located at a substantially central portion in the width direction. Then, the outer film 1 is guided by the guide rollers 27 and 28 and is superposed on the inner film 2 so as to cover the sheet-like member 4.

  At this time, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, before the outer film 1 is polymerized to the inner film 2, the cutting lines 29 are formed in the longitudinal direction at predetermined intervals by the cutting device 29. . More specifically, the cutting device 29 includes a receiving roller 29a and a cutting means 29b having a cutting blade. The pair of cutting lines 5 are formed in the longitudinal direction of the outer film 1 by reciprocating the cutting means 29b toward the receiving roller 29a and bringing it into contact with the receiving roller 29a. The cutting device 29 is not limited to this and can adopt a known structure.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 3, the outer film 1 is supplied so that the score line 5 is positioned between the adjacent sheet-like members 4, superposed on the inner film 2, and conveyed to the sealing device 30. . As shown in FIG. 1, the sealing device 30 includes heat rollers 30a and 30b. And it joins in the process which passes between the heat rollers 30a and 30b in the state which the elongate outer film 1 and the inner film 2 superposed | polymerized.

  More specifically, as shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the sealing device 30 joins both edge portions 6 and 7 in the width direction of the polymerized outer film 1 and inner film 2 and It joins by the adhesion part 8 extended in the width direction in the front part and back part. Thereby, the accommodating part 9 which accommodates the sheet-like member 4 between the outer film 1 and the inner film 2 is formed, and it hold | maintains so that the sheet-like member 4 cannot move relatively.

  Next, the outer film 1 and the inner film 2 joined in this way are conveyed to a cutting device 31, and are partially cut by a cutting line so that both edge portions 6 and 7 have an appropriate shape, and in the vicinity of the bonding portion 8. The notches 6a and 7a are formed in. The cutting device 31 includes a receiving roller 31b and a cutting means 31a having a cutting blade, and can adopt a known structure.

  Later, the outer film 1 and the inner film 2 are conveyed to the cutting device 32, cut through the cutting line 5, and by a cutting line 33 substantially orthogonal thereto. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the movable film 32a and the fixed film 32b are provided, and the movable film 32a is moved up and down intermittently with respect to the fixed film 32b, whereby the outer film 1 and the inner film. 2 is cut. The cutting device 32 is not limited to this, and can adopt a known structure. Then, the cut and formed packaging material is conveyed by the conveyor 34.

  Thus, a packaging material is formed as shown in FIGS. At the upper and lower ends of the packaging material, the pair of cut lines 5 are cut, and the opening operation piece 10 is formed between the cut lines 5. Moreover, since the adhesion part 8 is located inside the opening operation piece 10, the accommodating part 9 will be in the sealed state. That is, moisture, foreign matter, and the like do not enter the accommodating portion 9, and the sheet-like member 4 can be stored in a very good state without impairing the color and flavor of the sheet-like member 4.

  For example, in the packaging material in which the sheet-like member 4 is made of seaweed and the rice balls are packaged, the container 9 of the packaging material is sealed even in the case where the warm rice balls are packaged. Will not enter. As a result, the seaweed is not damp and the color, flavor, texture, etc. are not impaired. That is, laver can be preserved in a very good state.

  As mentioned above, according to the manufacturing method and apparatus of the packaging material which concern on this invention demonstrated, since the inner film 2 by which the approximate center part of the width direction was joined by the junction part 3 is shape | molded in the middle of a conveyance process, the junction part 3 It is possible to eliminate the need for a roll in which the inner film having the film is wound in advance, thereby reducing costs and improving productivity.

  Moreover, since the inner film 2 formed during conveyance is used in a subsequent process without being wound, wrinkles and the like are not generated in the joint portion 3 and the like, and the aesthetic appearance is impaired. There is nothing.

  In the said Example, although the support means 20 supported the inner film 2 in the state which located the junction part 3 upwards, it is not restricted to this. For example, the inner film 2 may be supported in a substantially standing state in which the joint portion 3 is positioned below. In such a case, the guide portion 21 is installed so as to be positioned above the line through which the joint portion 3 passes in a state corresponding to this.

  Furthermore, the support means 20 is intended to include not only a substantially upright state but also a support that supports the inner film 2 that is transported by superposing the first film piece 2a and the second film piece 2b in an inclined state. In such a case, it is desirable that the guide portion 21 is in a substantially horizontal state while conveying the inner film 2 in a shape corresponding to this, and the shape of the guide portion 21 can be appropriately changed and is particularly limited. There is nothing.

  Further, the setting position and dimensions of the joint portion 3 and the folded portion of the inner film 2 can be changed as appropriate, and when the joint portion 3 is pulled, the first film piece 2a and the second film piece 2b are used. It should be set so that can be separated. In addition, it is possible to appropriately change the installation position of the first roll 11, the second roll 12, the third roll 13, etc., the shape of the support means 20, the guide part 21, and the pressing part 22, the dimensions, the material, and the like. is there. Furthermore, it is needless to say that a part of the configuration can be omitted or a part of the configuration can be extracted.
