[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a manufacturing apparatus for an oxygen-absorbing composite continuous package, which improves the workability and production efficiency of the oxygen-absorbing composite continuous package.

[0002]

[Problems to be solved by conventional techniques and devices]

 Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 9, an oxygen detector 01 for monitoring an oxygen-free state is attached to the surface and integrated with a deoxygenator 02, as shown in FIG. The thus-obtained oxygen-absorbing complex 03 is manually supplied to a user such as a food manufacturer one by one into a packaging bag of, for example, sweets. As described above, conventionally, as a result of manually putting the oxygen scavenger complex 03 into the packaging bag, there is a problem that productivity is poor due to the necessity of labor costs and the burden of work time. Further, in the case of manual operation, there is a case where a problem arises that the oxygen scavenger complex 03 is forgotten to be put into the packaging bag.

In recent years, for example, as shown in FIG. 10, a deoxidizing agent sheet 04 comprising a continuous oxygen absorbing agent 02 is prepared, and an oxygen detecting agent sheet 05 separately prepared is cut at predetermined intervals. A device 06 that cuts the sealed portion of the continuous package together with the oxygen absorber composite 03 by attaching it as the detection piece 01 has been proposed (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 8-338386). For example, a single oxygen scavenger complex 03 is automatically loaded into a conveyed packaging bag 07 containing, for example, sweets.

However, as described above, the method of automatically charging the oxygen absorber composite 03 involves preparing the oxygen absorber sheet 04 in which the oxygen absorber 02 is continuous, and separately detecting the oxygen detector sheet 01. It is necessary to prepare a continuous oxygen sensing agent sheet 05 and join them together.

[0005] As a result, it is necessary for the food manufacturer to purchase the above-described device, and the oxygen absorber sheet 04 in which the oxygen absorber 02 is continuous and the detection piece 01 are continuous. It is necessary to prepare both of the oxygen sensing agent sheet 05, and there is a problem in that the transportation cost and the storage space for both need to be secured, and it takes time and effort to mount them on the apparatus, and the production efficiency is still poor.

Further, in the case of the above-described apparatus, the vacuum of both the oxygen absorber sheet 04 in which the oxygen absorber 02 is continuous and the oxygen detector sheet 05 in which the sensing piece 01 is continuous is provided. After unpacking the package, setting it in the device, and if there is an excess to be added, it is necessary to remove the device from the device again, vacuum pack it separately, and store it separately.

[Effect of the invention]

 As described above, according to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained. Since the composite sheet obtained by this device is wound or folded into a reel, it is only necessary to supply and cut only the composite sheet from the state where the reel is wound or folded. As a result, it is possible to improve the productivity of a food packaging bag in which the composite packaging bag for a deoxidizing system is enclosed. Conventionally, there are two types of reels, one that winds up the detection sheet and the other that rolls up or winds up the oxygen absorber sheet. It took time and effort to deliver the product to the user side, and the user side needed to keep these storage spaces. However, according to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the time required for degassing packaging by half and to reduce it by half. It is economical because it requires only transportation cost and storage space. In addition, by preparing only the oxygen-absorbing agent sheet to which the continuous detection piece has been affixed in a reel-shaped state or in a folded state and degassed and vacuum-stored, each user can use the conventional method. There is no need to use such a large-scale manufacturing apparatus, and only an automatic cutting apparatus need be prepared. This makes it possible to reduce equipment costs, and it is not necessary to perform extensive equipment maintenance, which is economical. Furthermore, the productivity of, for example, food packaging bags can be improved about twice or more as compared with the conventional manual operation, and continuous feeding is ensured.
