Definitions
- This invention pertains generally to air-filled packing materials and, more particularly, to a method and apparatus for pre-tearing strings of such materials so they can be more readily separated into desired lengths for use.
- One of the advantages of such materials is that they can be made from a preconfigured film material which is shipped and stored in a relatively compact form, typically on rolls or folded in boxes, and not inflated until it is at or near the point of use.
- the inflated film material is usually discharged from the machine which inflates it in the form of a continuous string of cushions with lines of perforations between the cushions so that the material can be torn into desired lengths.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a method and apparatus of the above character which facilitate the tearing of perforated materials into desired lengths.
- a packing material having inflated chambers separated by rows of perforations is fed at a predetermined speed in a direction generally perpendicular to the rows and periodically pulled upon rather abruptly to produce a partial tearing of the material along the rows of perforations.
- FIG. 1 is an isometric view of one embodiment of a system for pre-tearing and inflating strings of air-filled packing cushions in accordance with the invention.
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the machine which inflates and seals the film material in the embodiment of FIG. 1 .
- FIG. 3 is top plan view, partly broken away, of the preconfigured film material which is pre-torn and inflated in the embodiment of FIG. 1 .
- FIG. 4 is a fragmentary isometric view of the embodiment of FIG. 1 , with the covers of the pre-tear unit removed.
- FIG. 5 is a fragmentary elevational view of the pre-tear mechanism in the embodiment of FIG. 1 .
- FIG. 6 is an isometric view of the drive mechanism of the pre-tear unit in the embodiment of FIG. 1 .
- the invention is illustrated in connection with a system which includes a machine 11 for inflating and sealing a preconfigured film material 12 to form strings of air-filled packing cushions 13 .
- the system also includes a bin 14 positioned to receive the strings of cushions from the machine, and a dispensing head 16 through which the strings of cushions are withdrawn from the bin
- the inflating and sealing machine can, for example, be of the type shown in U.S. Pat. No. 6,582,800, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
- This machine has a base plate 17 which is adapted to rest on a table top or bench, and a generally rectangular enclosure housing 18 mounted on the base plate.
- the material is fed through the machine by a pair of traveling belts 19 which are trained about drive rollers 21 , take-up rollers 22 and guide rollers 23 - 26 .
- the belts are positioned on opposite sides of the path of the film material, with only the upper belt being visible in FIG. 2 .
- the lower belt is identical to the upper one, but inverted so that the two belts are positioned symmetrically about the film path.
- Air is injected into the material before it reaches the belts by an inflation tube 27 which extends in a generally horizontal direction near the front wall of the housing. Air is supplied to the inflation tube at a pressure on the order of 3 psi by a pump located within the housing and discharged into the film material through a plurality of openings (not shown) in the side wall of the tube. A knife blade (not shown) is provided for slitting the film material along the inflation tube after the material is inflated and sealed to permit the material to separate from the tube.
- Heater blocks 28 are positioned adjacent to the belts on both sides of the film path for applying heat to the material through the belts to seal the material after it is inflated.
- the heater blocks are movable between a rest position away from the belts and a sealing position against the belts. They are urged together toward the sealing position by springs 29 , and are moved apart by a cam mechanism (not shown).
- Covers 31 , 32 on the front wall of the housing enclose the belts, rollers and heater blocks and thereby protect the operator as well as keeping the film material away from the sides of the heater blocks.
- upper cover 31 is formed as an integral part of the housing, and has a transparent window 33 in its outer wall. The two covers are spaced apart to form an opening 34 through which the edge portion of the film material can pass as the material travels along the inflation tube and between the belts.
- the film material 11 is in the form of an elongated length of flattened plastic tubing 39 , such as polyethylene, with rows of perforations 41 extending transversely across the tubing from one edge to the other. Between the rows of perforations, the two layers 43 , 44 of the flattened tubing are sealed together along lines 46 , 47 which extend from one edge 48 of the tubing in a direction generally parallel to the perforations and terminate a short distance from the second edge 49 . Each pair of seal lines 46 , 47 defines an air chamber 51 which has an open mouth 52 that communicates with a longitudinally extending inflation channel 53 which is formed between the ends of the seals and the second edge of the material. A similar material is shown in U.S. Pat. No. 6,582,800.
- the film material is wound into a supply roll 56 which is mounted on a mandrel or spindle 57 for rotation about a horizontally extending axis above and to one side of the inflating and sealing machine.
- a pre-tear unit 59 is positioned between the supply roll and the inflation and sealing machine for tearing the material along the central portions of the rows of perforations before it is inflated and sealed.
- the pre-tear unit is enclosed in a housing 61 which has a pair of removable covers 62 on opposite sides of the film material.
- the pre-tear unit includes a pair of horizontally extending input guides 63 , 64 positioned on opposite sides of the film material, a pair of feed rollers 66 , 67 which draw the material from the supply roll, and a pair of tear rollers 68 , 69 which receive the material from the feed rollers.
- the feed rollers engage opposite sides of the film material and are driven in unison by a pair of gears 71 , 72 mounted on roller shafts 73 , 74 .
- Tear rollers 68 , 69 also engage opposite sides of the film material and are driven in unison by gears 76 , 77 mounted on their shafts 78 , 79 .
- the rollers are driven by a drive motor 81 which is connected to the shaft of tear roller 68 and a drive chain 82 trained about sprockets 83 , 84 affixed to drive gears 71 , 76 .
- the sprockets are sized such that the tear rollers turn somewhat faster than the feed rollers, and in one present embodiment, sprocket 83 has 30 teeth, sprocket 84 has 24 teeth, and the tear rollers rotate about 25 percent faster than the feed rollers.
- the material emerging from the tear rollers is trained about a horizontally extending bar 91 affixed to a switch arm 92 which pivots about a pin 93 . It then passes over a guide rod 94 to inflating and sealing machine 11 .
- a magnet 96 is mounted on the switch, and the position of the arm is monitored by a sensor (not shown) which controls the operation of drive motor 81 , with the drive motor being turned off if the mater is not being pulled by the inflating and sealing machine.
- Dispensing head 16 has a generally rectangular frame 98 which is mounted in an elevated position on a post 99 next to bin 14 .
- a horizontally extending guide roller 101 is mounted on a bracket 102 toward the top of the post, and the dispensing head has a roller 103 mounted between the side rails 104 , 106 of the frame and a plurality of elongated, flexible bristles 107 which extend from the upper rail 108 and terminate just above roller 103 .
- the supply roll 56 of preconfigured film material is placed on mandrel 57 , and the free end of the material is threaded through pre-tear unit 59 . That unit then draws the material from the supply roll, and the free end of the material is trained about switch arm bar 91 and over guide rod 94 . It is then threaded onto the inflation tube 27 and engaged with belts 19 in the inflating and sealing machine.
- the pre-tear unit continues to draw the material from the supply roll, and the belts draw the material from the pre-tear unit and feed it through the machine. If the machine stops pulling the material, switch arm 92 will rotate in a counterclockwise direction, tripping the sensor which shuts of the drive motor in the pre-tear unit, which serves to regulate the speed of the material through the system.
- feed rollers 66 , 67 engage the central portion of the material continuously and feed the material at a substantially steady speed toward tear rollers 68 , 69 .
- the tear rollers are traveling at a higher speed, and engage the material only intermittently or periodically. When they do, they exert a rather abrupt tug or pull on the central portion which tends to tear the in the central portions of the areas of weakness formed by the rows of perforations.
- the material is fed through the inflating and sealing machine with inflation tube 27 being received in the inflation channel 53 and air from the tube being injected through the open mouths 52 into chambers 51 to inflate the cushions.
- Heating elements 28 then form a longitudinally extending seal across the mouths of the chambers, thereby sealing the chambers to retain the air in them.
- the material is slit along the inflation channel to permit it to separate from the inflation tube.
- the centrally located slots or openings produced by the pre-tear unit also have another advantage in that they allow the central portions of the cushions to be drawn in and rounded as they are inflated, which allows them to hold about 20 percent more air than they could without the slots.
