JOSEPH FOSSEL, OF FARNUMSVILLE, MASSACHUSETTS.

MACHINE FOR MAKING, CHARGING, AN D SEALING CARTONS.

Application filed July 24, 1916.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I JosEPH FossEL, a citizen of the United States, residing at F arnumsrillc, in the county of \Vorcester and State of Massachusetts, have invented new and useful Improvements in Machines for Making, (fharging, and Sealing Cartons, of which the following is a specification.

The object of the resent invention is to provide an improved machine for making, charging, closing, and sealing, cartons. The invention is embodied in a plurality of mechanisms that are organized to coiiperate with each other automatically in such manner that no human agency is called into service from the time the flat cardboard blanks are placed in stack-forming relation upon the primary feed-table, until after the formed, charged, closed, and sealed cartons are delivered out of the machine.

The char ing mechanism is controlled by the carton orming mechanism through the agency of the cartons themselves, in such manner that there will be no delivery of charging material unless there is a carton in position to receive it. 'This control of the charging mechanism avoids waste of charging material if, for example, there should be an omission of one or more cartons from the series of cartons undergoing the process of being formed, or if the driving of the ma-- chine should continue after the supply of cartons was exhausted.

The foregoing brief outline of the invention is sulficient to give a general idea of the fundamentals, but the details of the mechanisms, and the relation and cooperationof the latter, are hereinafter fully described with reference to the accompanyin drawings. It may be explained at this time that some of the elements have been omitted pur posely from the general views of the drawings, especially Figures 1, 2 and 3, to avoid confusion. This is because of the great reduction in the scale of the drawings, necessary to enable the general views to be made within the prescribed limits. However, the elements that are omitted as aforesaid are illustrated in special figures of the drawings, and references are made to them to indicate their intended relation to the other elements with which they coiiperate.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented June 10, 1919. Serial No. 110,860.

Of the accompanying drawings that form a part of this application:

Fig. 1 represents an elevation of the machine, being a general view wherein the blanlefeeding mechanism is at the right, the charging mechanism in the middle, and the delivery end at the left.

Fig. 2 represents an end elevation of the right-hand end of the machine with reference to Fig. 1, the blank-feeding mechanism being at the left, the carton-forming mechanism being in the middle, and the charging mechanism being at the top.

Fig. 3 represents a top plan view of the machine,some of the elements being omitted as aforesaid, and a portion of the blank-feeding mechanism being broken away at the bottom of the figure. Accordin to this view, the carton blanks are fed, rst, from right to left (from A to B), then from bottom to top (from B to C), then from right to left (from Cto D), the cartons being fully formed but open at one end for charging, thence the charged cartons more from D to F through a semicircular path in a clockwise direction, with one intermediate position of dwell, and are delivered from the left-hand end of the machine, in line with arrow F.

Fig. 4 represents a vertical section, on a larger scale, through the magazine in which the carton blanks are stored in stack-forming relation and from which they are fed one by one from right to left. The plane of this section is indicated in a general way by line 4-4 ofFig. 2.

Fig. 4 represents a face view of a card- .board blank from which a carton can be made, charged, present machine. slitted and scored process performed A duplicate of this other sheet bearing scribed.

Fig. 5 represents a top plan view of that portion of the magazine that is broken away from the lower part of Fig. 3, the scale of Fig. 5 being the same as that of Fig. 4.

Fig. 6 represents a sectional view, similar to Fig. 4, of the lower elements of the magazine, but the movable bottoln is at its leftclosed and sealed by the This blank is suitably rior to undergoing the y the present machine. figure is shown on anfigures hereinafter .de-

hand ext eme in Fig. 6, whereas in Fig. 4 it is shown at the right-hand extreme.

Fig. 7 represents a vertical section through the blank-feeding mechanism and pasteapplying mechanism intersected by line 77 of Fig. 1, the scale of Fig. 7 being about. twice as great as that of Fig. 1. The point of view of Fig. 7 corresponds to that of Fig. 2.

Fig. 8 represents a top plan view of a portion of the paste-applying mechanism included in Fig. 7.

Fig. 9 represents an elevation, partly in section, of the paste-applying device shown in Fig. 7, in the first stage of its operation upon a carton blank.

Fig. 10 represents a view similar to Fig. 9, showing the paste-applying device in a more advanced position.

Fig. 11 represents a vertical section, somewhat diagrammatic, through the blank-forming mechanism intersected by line 11-11 of Fig. 3.

Fi 12 represents a sectional view, similar to Fig. 11, of some of the carton-forming elements included in the latter figure, the carton being in a more advanced stage of formation in Fig. 12.

Fig. 13 is a sectional view, similar to Fig. 12, showing the mechanism that operates one of the carton-forming devices.

Fig. 11 is a view similar to Fig. 11 excepting that it omits some of the carton-forming devices and includes a pressure device by which the lapped portions of the carton are pressed one upon another to cause the paste on one of them to adhere to the other.

Fig. 15 is a view similar to Fig. 14, showing the pressure device in cooperative relation to a carton-forming core.

Fig. 16 represents an elevation, partly in section, of the devices that fold the flaps at one end of the carton to close the bottom of the latter.

Fig. 16 represents a horizontal section of a carton before its end flaps have been folded by the devices shown in Fig. 16. This figure represents the condition of the carton at the position indicated by line 16-16 of Fig. 16, and includes the core on which the carton is formed.

Fig. 16 represents a sectional view through a carton at the position indicated by line 16"16 of Fig. 16, and includes the core on which the cartonis being formed.

Fig. 16 represents a view similar to Fig. 16", showing a carton undergoing the flapfolding operation next after that shown by Fi 16*.

Fig. 17 represents a view similar to Fig. 16, showing two of the carton cores at positions of dwell.

Fig. 17 represents a sectional view in a horizontal plane (see line 1717 of Fig.

17) through a carton that has had one of its end flaps folded in against the end of the core.

Fig. 18 represents a view similar to Fig. 17 excepting that the movable flap-folding device is in flap-folding position.

Fig. 18 represents a sectional view in a horizontal plane (see line IS -18 of Fig. 18) through the carton intersected by said line, showing the two flap-folding devices folding two of the flaps against the end of the core.
