  • Sheets-Sheet 1 Patented March 28, 1972 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 PACKAGING OF BOTTLES, JARS AND OTHER ARTICLES
  • This invention relates to the packaging in cartons, boxes or other containers of bottles, jars and other articles which in order to reduce the risk of breakage or other damage, require to be packed relatively tightly and separated by partitions or other suitable cushioning means.
  • a cellular insert comprising partition or wall members arranged at right angles to form individual compartments for the articles.
  • Such cellular inserts generally comprise strips of paperboard or the like, formed at the requisite spacings with slots which extend one half of the width of the strips in order that they may be interfitted as a preformed collapsible insert unit.
  • the packing operation then involves manually placing the several bottles in a carton and then opening out and placing a cellular insert therein so that each bottle is contained within an individual compartment.
  • Mechanical packing does not appear to be used and would be difficult due to the fact that each article should be a firm fit in its individual compartment or cell.
  • this usual packing procedure is both relatively slow and relatively expensive and it is one object of this invention to provide a carton or other like package of bottles or other articles, and which comprises improved partition means.
  • a further object is to provide an improved method of separating bottles or other articles in a carton or the like while still another object is to provide apparatus for carrying'out the said method.
  • the invention provides the method of packing bottles or other similarly formed articles in a carton or other container comprising arranging the articles in the container in a plurality of columns and rows and substantially in contact, inserting a partition strip downwardly between the articles in each adjacent pair of columns or rows subsequently inserting a partition strip downwardly between the articles disposed in each adjacent pair of rows or columns as the case may be, whereby such partition strip or strips is or are disposed at right angles to the firstmentioned partition strip or strips, and if desired, inserting a further partition strip downwardly between the articles in each adjacent pair of columns or rows so that each of said lastmentioned strips is disposed above and parallel to one of said firstmentioned strips.
  • the bottles or other articles are inserted in the container before the partition strips and this procedure enables them to be inserted readily by mechanical means. Also, after the first partition strip or strips have been inserted between the upper portions of the articles, the subsequent insertion of a further strip or strips at right angles thereto, forces the first mentioned strip or strips further downwardly.
  • the invention is especially applicable to the packing of bottles, jars or other articles which are reduced in size at their upper ends and are formed with curved or sloping shoulders which serve to guide the partition strips into the narrow spaces between the lower and larger portions of the articles.
  • an additional or locking strip is preferably inserted loosely above the uppermost level or layer of partition strips and so that the upper edges of the locking strip is engaged by the closing flaps of the carton or other cover means of the container.
  • the invention further provides apparatus for inserting partition strips into an open container in which a plurality of bottles or other articles are arranged in columns and rows comprising, a magazine of partition strips, means for removing the partition strips one at a time from the magazine and for locating each strip in turn substantially horizontally above the con tainer and substantially in the vertical plane disposed midway between two adjacent columns or rows of the articles therein,
  • a plurality of such partition strip inserting units is arranged at required spacings above an intermittently movable conveyor by means of which the containers are successively moved to an stopped at a plurality of stations at each of which one or more of the said partition strips is inserted and the assembly comprises at least two such spaced units arranged mutually at right angles when viewed in plan whereby one such unit inserts at least one strip between two adjacent columns of the articles, while the other unit inserts at least one strip between adjacent rows of the articles.
  • each strip inserting mechanism or unit preferably comprises a finger or the like which is pivotable about a horizontal axis thereby to move gripping means on said finger into horizontal register with a discharge opening in the bottom of an associated magazine in which partition strips are arranged horizontally, the one on top of the other, means for discharging the lowermost strip in the magazine and delivering it to said gripping means in register therewith, means operable to impart a partial rotation to the finger or the like whereby the said partition strip thereon moves arcuately downwardly until it is suspended horizontally above a container disposed therebelow and means operable to move the suspended strip downwardly whereby it is pressed into the space between the two adjacent columns or rows of the articles in the container.
  • the said gripping means on the finger or the like preferably comprises a spring clip or the like while the means for moving the suspended strip downwardly preferably comprises a vertically movable pressing member arranged above the suspended strip.
  • the said pressing member is preferably arranged vertically above the space between four of the said articles, arranged two in each column and row, in order that it may enter this space to some extent as hereinafter more fully described.
  • the invention further provides a package assembly comprising a container of generally rectangular form neatly accommodating a plurality of similar articles, e.g. bottles, arranged in at least two columns and at least two rows with narrow spaces therebetween, a lower partition member consisting of a strip of sheet material arranged on edge between, and laterally supported solely by, each adjacent pair of columns or rows of said articles, an upper partition member consisting of a strip of sheet material arranged on edge between, and laterally supported solely by each adjacent pair of rows or columns of said articles as the case may be, whereby each upper partition member is disposed at right angles to each lower partition member, and wherein each upper partition member or each lower partition member, or both, is or are shaped so that the level of the uppermost portion of each upper member is disposed above the level of the lowermost portion of each lower member, whereby throughout such overlapping levels, each of said articles is separated from each contiguous article by one of said partition members.
  • a container of generally rectangular form neatly accommodating a plurality of similar articles, e.g.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a carton containing bottles separated by partition strips in accordance with the invention
  • FIG. 2 is a plan view showing the assembly of partition strips and bottles
  • FIG 3 is a view in side elevation of the assembly of bottles and partition strips, and taken along line 33 of FIG. 2.
  • FIG. 4 is a diagrammatic view in side elevation of mechanism for inserting the partition strips.
  • FIGS. 1 to 3 are views of a carton 10 or other rectangular container in which a plurality of bottles 12 have been arranged in columns and rows in the usual way, the terms columns" and rows being used solely to distinguish lines of bottles arranged at right angles and not as implying that a column contains more bottles than a row as in the case of a square container, a column and a row would have equal numbers of bottles therein.
  • a rectangular partition strip 14 formed of paperboard or other suitable material, is inserted downwardly between each adjacent pair of rows of the bottles whereby they extend transversely with respect to the carton. These strips are not necessarily pushed downwardly to the bottom of the carton at this time, though they are preferably inserted so that their upper edges do not project much if at all above the shoulders of the bottles.
  • the strips do not necessarily extend the full width of the carton and in fact they are preferably shorter by a little less than the radius of the bottles in order to facilitate their insertion.
  • transverse partition strips 18 are inserted, one between each adjacent pair of rows so that each strip 18 is arranged vertically above a strip 14.
  • the strips 14 and 16 are pushed further downwards until the former are disposed in contact with, or close to, the bottom of the carton.
  • a rectangular locking strip 20 which may be formed of similar material is preferably placed loosely above the strips 18 and centrally of the container in order that when the carton flaps (not shown) are subsequently folded down and secured, these locking strips will hold down the assembly of partition strips 14, 16 and 18. See FIG. 3.
  • the locking strip 20 is shown disposed at right angles to the strips 18 and parallel to the strips 16. It has been found that one such locking strip 20 extending across the strips 18, midway between the ends of the latter, is adequate to provide the desired holddown action.
  • the several layers of partition strips may be formed mechanically for which purpose the cartons with the bottles previously inserted therein, are preferably moved in succession by an intermittent conveyor whereby they are arrested in turn below a series of stations at each of which one or more of the partition strips is inserted.
  • FIG. 4 shows diagrammatically one form of mechanism which may be arranged at one such station for the insertion of two parallel partition strips simultaneously for example the two end strips 16, the strips 14 having been inserted at the previous station.
  • the mechanism comprises two vertical magazines 26 each of which contains a plurality of strips 16 lying horizontally one on top of the other and an intermittently movable horizontal plunger 28 operated in timed relation with the conveyor, is arranged to discharge each strip 16 in turn from the bottom of each magazine through a discharge opening 29 in the inner side of the latter.
  • Each thus ejected partition strip is received with an accommodating slot 30 formed in the outer end of a horizontally disposed arm or finger 32, one side of this slot 30 being formed by a retaining spring 33 so that the strip is firmly frictionally retained to the finger.
  • Each finger 32 is partially rotatively mounted about a fixed horizontal axis 31 and is arranged approximately midway between the opposite ends of the partition strip 16.
  • the finger After receiving and gripping the partition strip 16, the finger is turned through an angle of 90 until it projects vertically downwards with the suspended partition strip disposed vertically above the space between two adjacent rows of bottles.
  • An arcuate guide (not shown) may be provided to ensure that the strip 16 does not fall from the finger during this downward movement.
  • the strip 16 When the strip 16 is suspended vertically midway between the two corresponding rows of bottles as shown in FIG. 4, it is disposed immediately below a slotted vertically movable discharge member 36 secured by an arm 37 to a vertically reciprocable spindle 38 mounted in suitable bearings, not shown, and as illustrated in the drawings, the discharge member 36 for the other finger is similarly connected to the vertically reciprocable spindle.
  • Suitable means not shown are provided for moving this spindle 38 downwardly at the appropriate time preferably at greater than gravitational speed and at least equal thereto, whereby each slotted discharge member 36 pushes the respective partition strip 14 downwardly from the respective spring clip on the depending finger and into the space between the respective rows of bottles 12.
  • Each of the said slotted discharge members 36 is disposed in vertical alignment with the space between four adjacent bottles and is of such a size that it is capable of entering this space to some extent as it approaches the limit of its downward movement.
  • each strip 16 is pushed below the shoulders of the bottles on each side thereof.
  • the finger 32 is returned to its initial horizontal position by means of a switch, a cam, or a combination of both whereupon a further partition strip 16 is discharged from each magazine and into the accommodating slot 30 in the finger which is then in register with the discharge opening in the corresponding magazine.
  • the carton assembly shown in the drawings is formed at five stations. Referring to FIG. 1 strips 1 and 2 are inserted at station 1; strips 3 and 4 are inserted at station 2, strip 5 is inserted at station 3; strips 6 and 7 are inserted at station 4; and strip 8 is inserted at station 5. Each station operates in the same set sequence, the action being initiated by a carton stop 40 (see FIG. 4), and proceeding by the triggering of a series of switches.
  • the conveyor 41 is formed from two belts separated one from the other by an in-between gap and the cartons 10 rest on the said belts.
  • the belts are driven by a single drive roller which in turn is driven by a three-phase electric motor through a chain and sprocket drive.
  • the carton stops 40 operate on a time cycle governed by a cam.
  • a stop is provided at each station and all stops are operated simultaneously off a lever 39 driven by a cam (not shown).
  • a safety measure is included in the stop system whereby the stop 40 will remain in an upright or 'stop position preventing the carton from moving in case of any malfunction of the partition inserting mechanism.
  • a mechanism, not shown, is provided at the start of the machine to separate any boxes running together without the appropriate space between them.
  • the partition strips 14 and 18 are preferably, though not necessarily, half the width of the strip 16.
  • the mechanism is arranged and adjusted to permit the rapid insertion of strips at each station, each carton remaining at each station for approximately 2 1% seconds.
  • the partition strips are pushed out of the fingers and down between the rows or columns of bottles at a speed at least equal to and preferably greater than gravitational speed thus ensuring that the strips do not twist out of the vertical plane and permitting accurate placement between said rows or columns.
  • the invention therefore provides a method and apparatus which greatly facilitates packing of bottles and other fragile articles in cartons or other containers as it avoids the use of the preformed cellular partition members commonly used for this purpose.
  • This enables the bottles or jars to be inserted mechanically into the carton and the subsequently inserted partition strips together form, in situ, a cellular assembly as best shown in FIG. 1 which provides effective protection for the bottles and in fact permits of them being more tightly packed than is the case when preformed cellular partitions are used.
  • the amount of paperboard or other like material used for the purpose of the present invention is significantly less than that used in preformed cellular inserts used for the same purpose, while also the expense of preforming the same is obviated.
  • a method of packing bottles or other similarly formed articles in a carton or other container comprising the steps of arranging the articles in the carton in a plurality of columns and rows and substantially contiguous with one another, removing at least one first partition strip from a magazine aligning partition strip holding means and said one first partition strip in a first position between the articles in an adjacent pair of columns or rows whereby the distance between the uppermost contiguous portion of said articles and the lowermost portion of said first partition strip is greater than the vertical dimension of the strip when in said first position, moving the first partition strip toward the articles through said distance at a speed at least equal to the strips gravitational speed while maintaining the proper vertical oreintation of said first partition strip and inserting the first partition strip between the articles, removing at least one second partition strip from a magazine aligning second partition strip holding means and at least one second partition strip in a second position between the articles in an adjacent pair of rows or columns whereby the distance between the uppermost contiguous portion of said articles and the lowermost portion of said second partition strip is greater than the vertical dimension of the strip
