According to a utility model, the production line 1 (FIGS. 1, 2, 3, 4) for packaging blocks of bottle containers with a food product, complete with a gift, contains an input conveyor 7, a pallet unloading device 2, interconnecting device 2, and a placement device 3 gifts in blocks of 11 bottle containers with a food product, made in the form of two parallel conveyors 8, 9.

The conveyor 8 can be made of tape or plate and located perpendicular to the inlet conveyor, and at the entrance is equipped with a device 2 for unloading pallets 12 having a vacuum multi-position manipulator for gripping blocks 11 of bottle containers with food product.

On the input conveyor 7 there is an emphasis 16 for stopping pallets 12 controlled by the signals of the sensor 16 for the position of pallets on the conveyor 7. The emphasis 16 is in the “closed” position when the block 11 of bottle containers with food product has “entered” the range of the sensor 16 generating the command to turn on the manipulator, which ensures that the suction cups capture the blocks 11 and place them on the conveyor 8, after which a command is issued to drive the stop 16 and put it into the “open” position, in which the pallet 12 moves on without the blocks. On the conveyor 8, in the direction of its movement, there is a post 20 for placing gifts in the indicated blocks 11 and moving in a completed form to a single-strand conveyor 9, made of a plate with the possibility of rotation by 90 degrees in the direction of motion according to the technological process (Fig. 1).

The conveyor 9 at the exit is equipped with a device for grouping blocks 11 in rows of three blocks each with their subsequent supply by means of a pusher-separator 22 to a three-strand conveyor 10. On this conveyor 10 there is a section 17 for packaging shrink film of blocks of bottle containers with food product complete with gift and vacuum multi-position manipulator 18, which is located at the outlet of this conveyor 10.

The manipulator 18 is made of a known design and is intended to accommodate blocks 11 in, complete with gifts on empty pallets 12 coming through the input conveyor 7.

In this case, the pallets according to the technological cycle previously using the device 5 rotation is rotated 90 degrees from a transverse to a longitudinal position. For this purpose, an emphasis 13 is mounted on the base and located on the side of the inlet conveyor 7 above it along the movement of the pallets 12 with the possibility of contact with the angle of the pallet for its rotation by 90 ° and the guides 14 and 15, which ensure strict positioning of empty pallets 12 as before the turn, so and after.

The technological line for unloading and loading blocks of bottle containers with a food product works as follows.

At the unloading station, the manipulator with vacuum suction cups of the pallet unloading device places blocks 11 of bottle containers in rows on conveyor 8, the so-called storage section, and they move in the direction of the single-strand plate conveyor 2. In one block, the number of bottle containers with food product can be chosen even. starting from two or more and interconnected, for example by a packing sheet. The conveyor 8 and the one-armed plate conveyor 9 are arranged to continuously move the blocks of bottle containers in one direction (shown by arrows).

At the gift posting station 20, the latter are entered by the operator into blocks 11, which moves to the single-strand plate conveyor 9. The presented functional diagram allows the use of several posts, which further increases productivity. For example, one post for placing gifts in blocks 11 and moving them is installed in the input region of the single-strand plate conveyor 9, and another post in the output region of the conveyor 8 (Fig. 1).

Blocks 11 complete with gifts are fed by a single-strand plate conveyor 9 into the grouping zone, while they are aligned longitudinally by the first pneumatic stopper 21 (stop) and enter the pusher area 22. Here they are aligned in the transverse direction by the second pneumatic stopper 23 and are placed without gaps between each other.

With the correct location of the blocks 11 of the bottle containers in the area of the pusher, the sensors 28 of their position (three are shown in Fig. 1) are activated, and the synchronization unit generates a clock signal that is fed to the controlled input of electronic equipment (not shown in the drawings) of the pusher 22. Pneumatics of the pusher 22 its emphasis with a curved (arched) working surface also works and moves the group of blocks 11 from a single-strand plate conveyor 9 to a three-strand conveyor 10, with a dilution in three directions with a certain size Toyan between blocks 11 sufficient for wrapping each shrink film in known manner. Then, for the next group of bottle container blocks 11, the synchronization block generates control signals for controlling the first and second stopper 21, 23, respectively. The process of preparing the next group of blocks 11. The pusher 22 moves the group of the following blocks 11 to the input of the conveyor belt 10. When the conveyor 10 is moved, the guide plates 24, made in particular of film-like ones, align the rows of blocks 11 in the longitudinal direction. Products shrink-wrapped are grouped by limiters 25 into two groups of three pieces before loading them into pallets 12 by manipulator 18.

The manipulator 18 (Fig. 4) of loading pallets 12 has pneumatic cylinders 26 of horizontal and vertical movements, controlled by row position sensors 29 and generating a command at the same time and for the operation of the stop 27 for stopping pallets 12, which is capable of delaying the pallet 12 in their loading area by bottle units 11 food containers complete with gifts.

The pneumatic cylinders 26 load the pallet 12 with blocks 11 using vacuum suction cups located on the manipulator carriage, while the empty pallet 12 is held on the conveyor 7 by a controlled stop 27 at the loading position until it is filled with blocks 11.

Thus, the technological cycle was closed, the pallets were first freed from the blocks of bottle containers with food product, filled with gifts, packed with heat-shrink film and loaded into the same pallets, while the input conveyor 7, like the other conveyors of the technological line, is in a constantly working state .

To further increase the loading performance of the blocks 11 of the bottle containers with the food product, a synchronization unit for moving the stop 27 of the pallet 12 with the simultaneous movement of the suction cups of the manipulator was used with the gift. For this, the input of the synchronization block is connected to the output of the sensor 29 of the position of the rows of blocks 11, and the control output of the synchronization block is connected to the input of the drive of the stop 27 to stop the pallet 12 on the conveyor 7 and to the input of the manipulator with pneumatic cylinders 26 and vacuum suction cups.

The use of the utility model allows to increase the productivity of the technological line for packing bottle containers with food products complete with a gift by ensuring stable positioning of bottle containers with food products complete with a gift on all closed-cycle devices from unloading pallets, filling blocks with gifts, grouping these blocks in rows, packing the blocks with shrink wrap and returning them to the same pallets. As tests have shown, without interrupting the movement of conveyors, it is possible to increase the productivity of the production line by at least 7%.
