Description

MS TF? I? DL ESTIBATED PACKAGING AT TOM ATK O DF (ON l ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Various designs or forms of packaging electrical conductors are known in semi-automatic form. automatic or manual by wrapping rolls in boxes • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • cylindrical for handling weight exceeding 100 kg.

In order to reduce inventories and to reduce distribution costs, the. . ' , soJí j tante designed a system of packaging and stibadp.jautom of electrical conductors,. , which allows users to offer cable presentations 7 times smaller than traditional packaging in 30-inch high cardboard drums The presentation of less cable bundles achieved that users could have more flexibility in their cutting operations because it allows them to cut the same product in several machines > at the same time when more than one 6-inch package is requested - high. . . .

Adiaonamente the presentation in packaging of smaller amount io which is the object of the inv ención, facilitated to the users the handling of materials, because the conventional tambo weighs around e 120 kilograms the packaging ae t > inches approximately. "cm ac height presents a maximum weight of 20 kilograms.

For the user and supplier, an advantage was obtained by being able to reuse the packaging several times. ... 1 Q The internal traffic of the packaged product is facilitated by including in the packaging (rack) metal frame that allows the use of two overlapping pallets in two levels: for the shipment to the users the product is deposited in two superimposed wooden pallets that they cover the capacity of a trailer. t.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The invention is described below according to the drawings of figures 1 to 8 wherein: Figure 1. Corresponds to an isometric view of the packaging and stowage system - on an automatic scissor table, roll of electrical conductors for automotive harnesses. -; Figure 1.1 Corresponds to an isometric view with sectional section of fig. 1, with a single individual package Figure 2 It corresponds to a top view of an individual octagonal cardboard package for rolls of electrical conductors.

Figure 3 Corresponds to a side view of Figure 2, Figure 4. Corresponds to a side view of a stowage with seven stacked packaging modules.

Figure 5 Corresponds to a top plan view of an electrical conductor roll Figure 6 Corresponds to a side view of Figure 2 Figure 7. Corresponds to a side view of a module of seven packages stacked for safekeeping in a rack of four modules.

,, The -figure 8. Corresponds to an isometric view of. the structure of a rack, with a seven-pack module The packaging and stowing system as shown in fig 1, is integrated by a conventional scissor table 10. It is positioned and controlled electronically at the desired height by means of its supports 14 automatically, to manipulate the stowage or t module 11, during the rolling of the seven packages 12, which constitute it. a cardboard or plastic packaging 12, for the rolls of electrical conductors for automotive harnesses, said package supports weights of 20 to 25 Kg., A portable cabinet 13 fig. 8 with four modules specially designed as a container for pallets for internal transfer or storage Packaging of cardboard or plastic The cardboard packaging 12 fig. 2, and 1.1 is designed in three sections ABC assembled being section A structured as an octagonal container traced in a single unit piece of cardboard, ie each of its sides 15. of the octagonal surface at its periphery presents folds which extend directionally to an extension of approximately 15 cm. To form a peripheral wall and then present another fold 16, of approximately 15 cm. To form a reinforced wall. Likewise four of its sides arranged alternately have projections 17 reinforced by an additional wall, which allows the package 12 to be self-supporting and a maximum of seven packages to form a stowage 1. The package 12, also presents in the part from the opposite end of the shoulder 17 a recess 19 formed by a thinning of two of the walls, which makes it possible to engage with the projection adjacent to the corresponding one of the stacking package. The packaging also has in two of its opposite walls, longitudinal recesses that act as handles 20 of the package. t The section B of the package 12 corresponds to a reinforcing sheath disposed peripherally between the section A and the section C, said sheath having an octagonal shape both in its internal and external periphery.

The section C of the package corresponds to a flange 28, fig. 1.1 of octagonal form which is located concentrically to section A, said flange has the same height corresponding to section A Also has eyebrows at its lower ends as fastening elements which are pressed between section A and section R. to define a passage in which the electrical winding is housed 29 The cardboard package 12 has a design mode, when it is made of plastic material it may or may not carry protrusions for self-stacking or only handles 21, manual and also self-stack up to seven pallets 22.

^ JBßS-ßCsB ---- ß-8 - il-SB-hB -? - i The gaskets were designed to be self-stacking, allowing them to be stowed and automatically filled one by one - on the automotive cable windings supporting on a scissor table. The packings are filled from uñó to form a total stowage of seven, automatically in the furler is constantly tested for continuity. 'Once seven packages have been filled, they are removed from the furler using the scissor table and a dead roller conveyor.

When the packages are going to be stored, they are placed in the four modules 1 1 the rack 13 Likewise, the four poles are placed 23 and another rack is stowed to send them at double level.

The objectives of the System of the invention are Process inventory reduction The 6-inch high packaging capacities are up to seven times smaller than the packaging capacities in the 30-inch high drums Easy handling The 30-inch drums can weigh up to 120 kilograms so it is not easy to handle, the 6-inch packages weigh a maximum of 20 kilograms and have handles so operators can handle them without difficulty.

Reuse 6-inch gaskets can be reused several times, which means savings in distribution costs.

Reduction of obsolete inventories. When a product is not high consumption, there is the opportunity to order it in smaller quantities so the risk is less that it becomes obsolete when changing the automotive model.

Decrease in polluting material. The versions of the packaging of 6 inches high, is 100 ° or cardboard or 100 ° or polyethylene so it has less amount of polluting material for the environment. The traditional tambo has metallic hoops engargolados in the lower part \ superior reason why they are difficult to separate of the cardboard.

Description of the rack (cabinet) 13 fig. 8 The Universal Rack has the function of storing cable packaging for various uses.

The types of packaging are as follows: - Octagonal cardboard packing height = 15.2 cm. (6"), distance between opposing faces = 60 cm. - Round cardboard package height = 15.2 cm (6") diam. = 60 cm -Two cartons of 60 cm. Of diameter and of different heights 15", 21", "and 42" Corresponds to a symmetrical structure of a frame composed of a base 24 articulated by tubular profiles 25, arranged in four rectangular shaped sections to accommodate four pallets with seven octagonal packages 1 1, respectively. The rack 13 further comprises a series of four rigid sockets 23 arranged vertically and in each of the corners of the base 24 to support a second base (stow). In the lower part of the base of the rack 30. there are four legs with male support 26, for stacking the rack; in the upper part of said rack there are also four female supports 27 for admission of the second rack for transportation The rack has 4 accesses of packaging and its design allows to stack up to 3 racks, one on top of the other, its dimensions suitable for them to be stored in boxes of 2-in-2 trailers equally on top of each other.

Having described the invention is considered a novelty and therefore the content is claimed in the following.
