NL8400788A - Automatic packaging unit for fragile objects - comprises flat blank with stamped out recesses is glued to lateral blank sections - Google Patents

Abstract

The rectangular blank has four fold lines. The blanks side surfaces are flat, whilst the bottom and top surfaces have glued on stampeds, which are folded in zig-zag fashion. The blank (1) has a bottom surface and a basic interior sections with cut-outs (3) and glued joints (4,5) attached to the top interior part (6) and stamped cut-outs (7) to glued joints (8). Of both lateral surfaces (9,10), the front one is glued to closure lip (11). A vacuum mechanism with apertures is used to retain the fragile articles and to place them into their final position.

Packaging for delicate products.

Applicant: Johan Hendrik Eduard Oskamp, in Bussum.

The present invention relates to a shipping package for fragile products, to a method of manufacturing this shipping package and to the packaging method.

Starting from flat pieces of cardboard, which are cut according to a certain circumferential model and then glued folded (so-called blanks), various boxes and separating means can be manufactured / which are suitable for general or specific purposes.

In the Ned. Patent application 77.12516 describes similar blanks.

Xn the Ned. Patent application 81.03.250 describes a method aimed at such blanks for the separate packaging of glass and crockery.

For this, the cardboard is cut to the desired size, punched and then glued by point gluing with a gluing machine, after which the wrapping separation is folded, the interior being slightly set up by that movement.

The winding separation consists of a rectangular piece of cardboard, with two shorter pieces of cardboard on top, in which circles have been punched, which hold the object.

These punched blanks can be used as carrier packages for, for example, two rows of glasses, but there is an increasing need for a shipping package for a packaging product, which can contain more than two rows of fragile products, which can be placed on a fully automated filling and packaging line can be used, and which has a revealing, separating and protective function, so that it can be used as shipping package 25, which has a high degree of stability.

In particular, such a new form of packaging should be able to serve for the automatic packaging of bottles, glass screw jars, rolls of plastic-wrapped biscuits, and similar articles.

The shape obtained must be such that the bottom of the package is the 8400788 -2-

1 · soil forms for different soil shapes of fragile or vulnerable products.

The packaging according to the present invention is a cardboard wrapping separation packaging, characterized by a rectangular blank foldable along four fold lines, the two side surfaces of which are smooth and the bottom surface of which is covered on the inside with a glued zig-zag fold-up of cut-outs of the size of the bottom periphery of the product to be packaged with the basic interior piece, while the lid surface is covered on the inside with a glued similar zig-zag-10 foldable downwardly with cut-outs the size of the top periphery of the product to be packaged, with a top interior piece and a folding lip also foldable along a folding line.

The shape and length of the blank is such that the bottom with basic interior piece can form the bottom for different shapes of objects to be packaged, provided that these only fit into the cut-outs.

The basic interior piece and the top interior piece are on one side on the bottom or lid surface by stripe gluing. tied up.

The articles to be packaged are supplied in rows on the packaging line to the folding track, and on the folding track to the ready blanks with the glued base and top interior pieces, which are still lying flat, and are held in place by vacuum suction through some suction openings, pushed.

Then a first folding lifting arm moves on the longest side along the folding line between bottom surface and side surface with lid surface, this side surface perpendicularly upwards.

As a result, a part of the basic interior piece which lies on the bottom surface and which is glued to the side surface is folded upwards, whereby separation is created between lower punched-out parts.

Then, a folding block suspended from a rail above the folding web slides over the lid surface whereby part of the top-30 interior piece glued to the side surface is folded downwards, so that separation is obtained between the upper punched-out parts over which the lid surface is placed.

Then the second side surface of the blank 8400788 'V-* * 3 is folded vertically upwards by a second folding lifting arm and the closing lip of the lid surface is provided with a glue stripe and pressed against the side surface by an auxiliary arm.

The packaging material with its contents is then provided with a wrapping so that the front and back sides, which are still open, are closed.

A packaging means based on the possibility according to the invention to interior pieces, which must hold an article to be packed and separate it from the adjacent one, during the folding process of the blank on the folding track at the end of the packaging line, to form the final spatial shape. having it adopted around the article 10 to be packaged can of course be used for many purposes.

In addition to bottle packs for numbers of bottles, a variant according to the invention can also be used for separated trays, roll-shaped biscuit packs and other packaging forms.

The blanks according to the invention can also be formed without the article 15 to be packaged.

The dimensions of the blank can be chosen according to need.

The ratio of size of bottom, lid and side walls is like 1: 1: 1.

The invention is further elucidated with reference to the annexed drawings.

Figure 1 shows a partially folded open packaging means according to the present invention.

Figure 2 shows the same package with 3 rows of bottles, as an example of articles to be packed, in fully folded and glued form with front and back left open, to show construction features.

In these figures (1) is the bottom surface, (2) the bass is interior with cutouts. (3) and bonding (4); (5) is the cover surface with top interior piece (6), cutouts (7) and bonding (8); the front of the two side surfaces (9) and (10) is glued to the closing lip (11), as shown in figure 2.

Figure 3 shows the supplying and placing on the blank of the 8400788 V} -4 articles to be packaged on the folding track (12), provided with a first folding lifting arm (13) and a second folding lifting arm (14) with auxiliary arm (15).

Figure 4 shows the first stage of folding through the first folding lifting arm (13) y. whereby a side surface with glued base interiors and the cover surface 5 are perpendicularly raised.

Figure 5 shows the second stage of folding through the folding block (16) on rail (17).

Figure 6 shows the third phase of enclosure with the second folding lifting arm (14), which folds up the other side surface and presses the closing tab (11) through the auxiliary arm 10 (15) against the side surface.

In this way, a fully automated packaging line can be provided with cut or punched cardboard blanks with basic and top interior pieces, which during the folding phase form equally around the objects to be packaged and fix and separate them in such a way that they are ready in the finished packaging. protected, which can track shipment.
